Summary

At last, Aladdin and Jasmine are about to be married. But Aladdin, despite the support and encouragement of his friends, is nervous and afraid, worrying about what kind of father he will be since he never knew his own father. When the Forty Thieves disrupt the wedding party in search of a talisman called the Hand of Midas, Aladdin must stop the thieves and find his long-lost father into the bargain.
