I don't know... I think they're both being immature about it, but Rasoul more so. He really wants to believe Aladdin is a traitor so of course he finds evidence of it wherever he looks. He's not stupid, just delusional.

And he's certainly not incompetent in his job, he just seems that way in comparison to Aladdin, and because most of the eps have villains that use magic and that it really takes a genie and magic carpet's help to beat.

And.... I think I may have answered question 2 somewhere in there... Laughing

Or when he tells Abu that he is fed up with his stealing, they agree he won't do it anymore, but then goes "ok, just this once" later on in the ep. Laughing

And then he proceeds to sit her down and explain that stealing is wrong, and we see how well that works. Laughing Yeah, we've got both ends of the political spectrum represented there... Wink

*hides the opening scene of "Strike Up The Sand" with the royal fruit inspector trick and "Dune Quixote" with the laddle stealing incident*

Yep, he sure did stop tricking Rasoul Laughing

But both times was to help out fellow street rat Sadira from getting in trouble....*ponders that*

For answers 1,3,4, and 5, I would say that he is loyal, but perhaps Jafar used his snake staff on him. That way, he could have specified not to listen to Jasmine (Jafar most likely knew that Jasmine was fond of Aladdin by what he saw in his hourglass). But, then again, he didn't seem like he was in a trance when he tried to kill Prince Ali. Maybe Jafar tricked him into thinking Prince Ali was a traitor?

For 6, I'd say yes. Because in that episode with that big dragon thing, Razoul seemed to have accepted the fact that ALaddin would someday become the sultan.

For 2, I'd say yes and no. I mean, how would you feel if someone you could never beat at anything became sultan and married the prettiest woman you've ever seen? However, in a way I'd say no because he needs to get over it. Aladdin stopped trying to trick him and everything and even tried to get along with him after the first movie, right? (save for the time when he broke his dad loose in KoT, but that was for a reasonable cause).

Therrryago.

Hey, "Razoul" is a valid spelling. Confused I've seen it in novelizations...

Well, at least someone's got a hang of this flame war idea. Laughing

But I haven't answered any of my own questions! Shocked

1. Do you think Rasoul knew/suspected anything about Jafar's plot to overthrow the sultan, and if so, what?

I think he might have thought something was up with Jafar, but I don't think he had any idea at all that he was plotting to overthrow the sultan. I think he should have suspected. As we find out in "Destiny on Fire", Rasoul knows all the secret passages in the palace, so he must have known about Jafar's secret lab. I can't prove it, but I'll bet he knew Iago could talk. He was probably in a position to hear all kinds of things that should have tipped him off. But the thing about Rasoul is that he sees what he wants to see. (Hey, just because I'm his fangirl doesn't mean I think he's perfect. Wink )

It doesn't seem like any of the other guards have a huge problem with it other than Rasoul, so there's some back story that I want to know.


That's true; I hadn't thought about that much. They seem to either ignore him, or are slightly annoyed, or just go along with Rasoul (him being their boss and all. Wink )
