Capítulo 9 de 24 · 7'49"
Two strangers in a cave can't agree on anything: why only three wishes, what "all-powerful" even means. But the jokes keep sliding into something real. "I'd wish to be free," the genie admits, and the boy promises his last wish will set him free. Then he sees the princess and asks to be made a prince.

Genie Teaches Aladdin to Be Specific
Inside the cave, Aladdin rubs the lamp and meets the Genie, who is all-powerful but stuck in a tiny space. They argue about the three-wish limit, and the Genie admits his own wish: freedom. Aladdin promises to use his last wish for that. Then he thinks of the princess he met and asks the Genie to turn him into a prince.
On its surface this is a comedy routine: a street kid and a showman genie bickering about the rules of wishing. But the scene quietly sets up the movie's central bargain. The line "I'd wish to be free" turns a joke into a confession, and the promise to spend a last wish on someone else's freedom is the first genuinely selfless thing the boy does. The banter about "phenomenal cosmic powers, but itty-bitty living space" says the same thing with a laugh: even near-infinite power means nothing without a life of your own. By the time he chooses to be a prince, the film has planted the real question - whether the wishes will be used for himself or for someone else.

I'd wish to be free. -(CLANGING) -To not have to say, "Poof! Can I help you?" "Poof! What would you like?" "Poof! Welcome to the lamp. "May I take your order, please?" Freedom. I wish to be... to be human.

He says he'd wish to be free. He's all-powerful but bound to the lamp, and only his owner can release him with one of the three wishes.
He's fallen for a girl he learns is a princess, and since she has to marry a prince, he thinks a new identity is the only way to be near her.
Because wish wording is literal. "Make me a prince" is full of gray area, so he teaches Aladdin to name exactly what he wants.
That's the promise he makes, but the film later tests it: the more wishes he gets, the harder it becomes to give the last one away.
