Synopsis:
Corky and Bonnie are forced to take two thieves back to ancient Baghdad to recover Aladdin’s magical lamp. Rip and Jeff follow in another Time Sphere, but they are unable to stop the thieves from summoning the Genie of the Lamp. Fortunately Aladdin has another genie to fight the Genie of the Lamp with. The fight allows Corky to recover the lamp from the crooks and regain control of both genies.
Rip and Jeff have been captured by enemy soldiers, but once Corky gains control of the genies, the duo is rescued. Then Aladdin uses both genies to aid Baghdad against the advancing army. Then the team returns to their own time with the crooks in tow.
