After Aladdin becomes wealthy in the show, she advises him to remain wary of supposed friends who seek to profit off his fortune. "Evil hands are everywhere, and they desire to get a hold of everything you own," she says, clutching her celebrated breasts. "They usually belong to people who work in the tax office...
