| - Inside a small house lost in the arid wilderness surrounding the core population of Agrabah, an infant Jafar is seen tending to his dying mother, Ulima, who is very ill. He rubs a wet cloth over her forehead and begs her not to leave her, as he holds her hand in his own. He starts to ask her what he can do, what herbs to use, but she tells him there's nothing left to do. He tells her not to say that and reminds her that she is a healer, she's cured many others, and the dying woman claims to fear she is beyond help, it's her time. "I'm sorry," she tells her worried son, who goes on to ask what he will do and where he will go, with teary eyes. She tells him not to worry, and kisses his hand, before saying he will be cared for. Jafar asks "By who?", to which she responds, "Your father." Tears

He rubs a wet cloth over her forehead and begs her not to leave her, as he holds her hand in his own. He starts to ask her what he can do, what herbs to use, but she tells him there's nothing left to do. He tells her not to say that and reminds her that she is a healer, she's cured many others, and the dying woman claims to fear she is beyond help, it's her time. "I'm sorry," she tells her worried son, who goes on to ask what he will do and where he will go, with teary eyes. She tells him not to worry, and kisses his hand, before saying he will be cared for. Jafar asks "By who?", to which she responds, "Your father." Tears streaming down his face, the young man says he doesn't understand, and starts to recount that his father died when he was younger, but is interrupted and unable to finish his sentence by his mother's claim that his real father still lives. Ulima tells him to go to his father, at the palace. The child says that only the Sultan lives there, and Ulima smiles and nods her head, saying, "That's right, Jafar." "He's my father?" the boy realizes, and his mother feels weaker. She hands him something and says that it belonged to the Sultan: a ring, which she slides into Jafar's finger, telling him to go and give it back, and the Sultan will remember. She touches her son's chin and tells him he is the ruler's blood, and the latter will not turn him away. This said, Ulima dies, and Jafar mourns her. The winds start to soar through the house and Ulima's visible life energy appears and disappears in the air. Jafar holds his deceased mother, crying. ("Bad Blood")
