00:00Alibaba and the Forty Thieves
00:04Once upon a time, in a Persian city,
00:07there lived a carpet merchant,
00:09who had two sons,
00:11one named Kassim, the other Alibaba.
00:15After their father's death,
00:17the greedy Kassim took over his father's business,
00:21fooling the naive Alibaba.
00:24Kassim's father, Alibaba,
00:27had to maintain his wife and children.
00:30He earned his bread and butter
00:32by cutting and selling wood.
00:35One day, Alibaba was gathering wood in the forest.
00:39Suddenly, he heard the galloping of many horses.
00:44Huh? Huh?
00:47He hid himself behind the tree as he was afraid.
00:51There came a horse,
00:53and stopped near a big boulder in the mountain foot.
00:57They have swords and daggers on their waistbands.
01:01These must be a gang of thieves.
01:05What are they doing in the forest?
01:08One of the thieves, who looked like their leader,
01:11came in front of the boulder.
01:13Open sesame!
01:16Open sesame!
01:19Open sesame!
01:22Sesame!
01:26Alibaba couldn't believe his eyes.
01:30Whoa!
01:32The boulder was an entrance door to a dark cave.
01:36The burglars marched inside the cave,
01:39and the door got closed behind them.
01:42Alibaba was awestruck
01:44and couldn't move a single bone in terror.
01:48After some time, the door swung open again,
01:51and out came the thieves with empty hands.
01:56They left their sacks inside the cave.
02:00The thieves sat on the horse and disappeared from the forest.
02:05Oh, this must be their hideout for the treasure.
02:11Alibaba couldn't resist entering the cave.
02:14He stood in front of the boulder and shouted,
02:18Open sesame!
02:20The door got opened like before.
02:23Alibaba entered the cave.
02:27Oh ho!
02:30There were huge piles of gold, silver, precious utensils,
02:35diamonds, rubies, and much more,
02:38which Alibaba had never seen in his life.
02:43Oh!
02:45Alibaba rubbed his eyes in disbelief,
02:48but it was all there lying on the ground.
02:52I'll take some coins.
02:54The thieves won't even notice it.
02:57Alibaba filled a bag full of coins and reached for home.
03:02Look what I've got!
03:04Alibaba emptied the sack of gold coins in front of her.
03:09His wife was astonished to see so much gold.
03:13Ah!
03:15Have you stolen these coins?
03:17It's a long story.
03:19I have not stolen anything.
03:21It was already stolen.
03:24I will count these first.
03:26No, we can't count so many coins.
03:29Go to my brother's house and bring a weighing scale.
03:33Alibaba's wife quickly ran to the brother-in-law's house.
03:39Dear, give me a weighing scale for tonight.
03:42I will return it by tomorrow morning.
03:44What will you weigh with it?
03:46Nothing, just some grains.
03:48Kasim's wife was a cunning woman.
03:51She thought that Alibaba couldn't have so much grain to weigh.
03:55So she stuck wax below the scale and gave it to Alibaba's wife.
04:01Alibaba's wife weighed the gold coins and was very happy with the quantity.
04:07We have become rich.
04:09We can buy whatever we want.
04:11Not so soon.
04:12Everyone will suspect us.
04:14We cannot let anyone know our secret.
04:18Alibaba's wife accepted the conditions to keep mum.
04:21But on the second day, Kasim's wife discovered their secret by seeing the scales.
04:27She immediately informed Kasim about his brother's wealth.
04:32Alibaba has gold coins.
04:35Where did he get those?
04:37I must find out.
04:40Kasim grew so envious that he could not sleep.
04:44So he immediately went to Alibaba's house.
04:48Ali, how are you, brother?
04:51I came here to ask you if you need anything.
04:55Don't hesitate ever.
04:57Ask for whatever you want.
04:59Your elder brother is always here for you.
05:04Oh, brother.
05:05I'm glad that you came.
05:07Oh, brother.
05:08I'm glad that you care for me, but I have got enough wealth now.
05:13I don't need anything else.
05:16Wealth?
05:17Tell me about it.
05:20The innocent Alibaba couldn't hold the truth in his stomach.
05:23And he told Kasim everything about the thieves and the cave.
05:29That's great.
05:31I will go there tomorrow.
05:33After all, your money is my responsibility.
05:38I have to take care of it.
05:40Uh, what's the code word to open the cave?
05:45Open sesame.
05:47Open sesame.
05:49Open sesame.
05:51I will remember that.
05:53Open sesame.
05:55The next morning, Kasim left from his house with four sturdy mules to carry the gold.
06:01I will be richer than the richest.
06:06He reached the cave and shouted,
06:09Open sesame.
06:11And the door opened and shut behind him.
06:15Amazing.
06:16Unbelievable.
06:18So much gold.
06:20So many gems.
06:22I will take away everything from here.
06:25Kasim filled all the coins and gems in sacks.
06:29But as he came to the door to return,
06:31he just stood there thinking.
06:34What was the word?
06:38Open barley.
06:40Open wheat.
06:42Open the door.
06:44Open the door.
06:46Somebody, open it.
06:48In his excitement, Kasim forgot the password and got locked inside the cave.
06:54After a while, he heard the horses tapping.
06:58The forty thieves had come back to the cave.
07:01Open sesame.
07:04As the door got open, they all found Kasim sitting on his knees on the door.
07:10Without asking him a single question,
07:12the leader killed him with a dagger and left his body lying inside.
07:17Kasim's wife went to Ali Baba to inform him about Kasim's disappearance.
07:23He had gone to the cave.
07:25I will go to find him.
07:28Ali Baba went to the cave and found Kasim's body lying there.
07:33No. Oh, no.
07:37He put him on a mule and carried him to his home.
07:43Kasim's maid, Morgiana, heard everything about the incident.
07:48We have to hide the reason of his death from everyone.
07:51I will go to the doctor to get some medicine for him,
07:54so that we can pretend that he is ill.
07:56Tomorrow morning, we will announce that he is dead.
07:59Everyone agreed to her master plan.
08:02A few days passed, but Kasim's wife couldn't bear the grief and died.
08:07Nobody left here to serve.
08:10Please, allow me to work in your house.
08:13Ali Baba knew that she was a clever girl and would be helpful in the future.
08:19So, he took Morgiana to his house.
08:23The next day, the thieves came to the cave.
08:29Where is the dead body?
08:31There is someone else who knows our secret.
08:35It's the wealth we have gathered throughout our lives.
08:38Before we lose it, we have to find out who is our enemy.
08:42Go to the village and find out who has died recently.
08:47All the thieves scattered into the village to find out the person.
08:51One thief came to the doctor's house.
08:54Hello, doctor.
08:56Do you know any person who died within a few days?
09:00Yes, Kasim died.
09:02I gave him the medicine as his maid described the symptoms.
09:06But he died. I'm very sorry for him.
09:10That's very ill-fated.
09:12Where is his house?
09:14Nobody lives in that house, but he has a brother, Ali Baba.
09:18He lives down in the valley.
09:21The thieves suspected that Ali Baba must be the one who carried the body.
09:26So, he went to his house at night.
09:28There was no one in the alley.
09:31He made a mark on the door.
09:33Tomorrow, I will bring my gang and kill everyone in the house.
09:39The next morning, Morgiana saw the mark on the door.
09:43Clever Morgiana guessed that there was some danger for the family.
09:47She marked every house in the alley with the same mark.
09:52At midnight, the thieves came to the village but got confused
09:56because every house had the same mark.
09:59They went back disappointed.
10:02I'll go and find out tomorrow myself.
10:06The captain now resolved to go himself.
10:09But, wiser than the others, he did not mark the house
10:13but looked at it so closely that he could not fail to remember it.
10:19He called for 40 mules and 40 empty barrels.
10:23He filled one barrel with oil.
10:25In the remaining barrels, he asked to hide the other thieves.
10:29The leader then disguised himself as an oil merchant.
10:32He went to Ali Baba's house.
10:37Who do you want to meet?
10:39I'm an oil merchant traveling to Asia to sell the oil.
10:43It's night time and I'm looking for a shelter to spend the night.
10:48That's a great distance to travel.
10:51Please come inside and take some rest.
10:54Let me see your barrels first.
10:56Oh, why not? You must.
10:59A beautiful girl like you must check for her safety first.
11:03Morgiana luckily opened the barrel filled with oil.
11:07She got assured.
11:08The leader got relief.
11:10They all came in.
11:12Morgiana prepared a delicious dinner for the night.
11:15She served the dinner and saw one of the rings on the merchant's finger.
11:20She realized it's the similar ring Ali Baba bought with the treasure.
11:25She had her doubts again.
11:27She slowly went out near to the barrels and knocked on it.
11:32Shall we come out, master?
11:34Morgiana understood the whole trick.
11:37She checked all the barrels and found a thief hiding inside.
11:41She took the barrels filled with oil and heated them in a big cauldron.
11:46Then she poured a jug full of hot oil in every barrel.
11:50Oh! Ah!
12:01That way she cleared her way out of the thieves.
12:04At night, the leader came out to call out the fellow thieves.
12:08But when he opened the barrel, he was shocked and scared.
12:12Ah!
12:15He was trapped in his own trap.
12:17He escaped from there in fear.
12:20The next day, Morgiana told the incident to Ali Baba.
12:24You have saved my life.
12:26I can't thank you enough, girl.
12:28From now on, you are a member of this family, not just a maid.
12:33Thank you, majesty.
12:36They all stayed together as a happy family.
12:39Ali Baba was the only person who knew the secret of the treasure cave.
12:44Open sesame!
