I think, maybe, YOU don't get it. The more you gain by pretending, the less you're...

Genie:

So, you got the girl. I mean, trust me, I had my doubts after your whole jam debacle. But, you pulled yourself back together a little bit. Aladdin:
I did, didn't I? I think I finally got the hang of being a prince. Aladdin:
Oh, well, that's not exactly what I meant... Aladdin:
But you were right. People see what they want to see. Aladdin is gone. I'm Prince Ali now. Genie:
Wow. Got it all figured now, huh, kid? Aladdin:
And you know, I was thinking about my last wish, and I just... I can't do this without you. I know I told you I'd use it to set you free, but you heard the Sultan. I can't let everything that we've worked for fall apart. Genie:
[hurt]
So, you just never tell her the truth? You're gonna keep living the lie? Aladdin:
It's not a lie. People can change. Genie:
Heh, oh they can change, all right. Aladdin:
And that's a bad thing? Everything's better now. No one got hurt. You'd rather me be back on the streets stealing to survive? I... thought you'd be happy me. But all you cared about was that I use my last wish to set you free. Genie:
Wow. Kid, I don't care nothin' about that wish! This is about you, what's happening to you! You'd rather lie to someone you love than give all this up! Aladdin:
You don't get it, Genie! People like me don't get anything, except by pretending! Genie:
I think, maybe, YOU don't get it. The more you gain by pretending, the less you're actually gonna have. In ten thousand years, I have never once, ever called a master a friend. I broke the rules for you. I saved your life... and for what? You are breaking my heart here, kid. You're breaking my heart. [goes back inside his lamp]
