The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAladdin has talked Jasmine back into the lie: she saw he was the street kid, and he convinced her he really is a prince. The genie says he must tell her eventually. Her friend asks if she believes him only because she has to marry a prince. Then Jafar corners him on a balcony, names the fake kingdom and the magic carpet, and offers a test. Throw him off: if he lives, it can only be the lamp. Watch deduction become a death sentence.

Monologue
One character carrying the scene — shadow the whole passageIf I throw you off of that balcony, and you are who you say you are... you will die a watery death. If you survive, it can only be because of the lamp. In which case, I will have my answer.
要是我把你从那阳台扔下去, 而你真是你自称的那个人…… 你会淹死。 你要是活下来,那就只能是因为那盏灯。 那样的话,我就得到答案了。
