Shahryar feels time flies after hearing many stories from Scheherazade and is no longer impressed. Scheherazade says she’ll tell more, possibly her last tales, then begins the story of Dalila the swindler and Ali Al Zaybak.

Shahryar is upset to see on TV that publishers asked Scheherazade to rewrite the stories of One Thousand and One Nights. Scheherazade tells him it’s difficult to publish her tales because ideas are more dangerous than weapons and can spark a revolution in society.

An envoy from Americastan visits Shahryar and gives him a message and a roadmap from their leader, which they follow in their country to guide them correctly. He expresses his disapproval of Shahryar’s idea to build a utopian city, calling it a dangerous project for Americastan’s security and safety.

Masrour the swordsman flirts with the slave girl Badir Al Budur, and Scheherazade scolds her for neglecting her work and being too spoiled. The president of Americastan calls Shahryar, ordering him to spread democracy in his country and hold free elections.

Shahryar receives a lawsuit accusing him of anti-Semitism and appears in court. He is accused of keeping Hitler’s *Mein Kampf* book, seen as proof of anti-Semitism. Scheherazade stands up to defend him, saying he is not guilty.

Aladdin, with his lamp, and his friend Ali Baba go to meet Scheherazade. They meet the palace guard, Simsim, who informs Masrour about what happened. Masrour is pleased and meets them. Shahryar greets them and asks them to maintain security inside the palace.

Scheherazade craves green almonds grown in the neighboring Sultanate and asks Shahryar to arrange a deal with Sultan Shawqestan to exchange almonds for the fig trees they grow. She says this agreement will prevent a future border dispute.

It becomes clear that the slave girl Badir Al Budur placed radioactive uranium pellets in Shahryar’s food, causing a massive explosion. News spreads against Shahryar, claiming the kingdom contains toxic materials.

Shahryar experiences a series of nightmares featuring a rooster. Qamar Al Zaman suggests celebrating a national Chicken Eating Day to get revenge on the rooster haunting his dreams. Meanwhile, bird flu spreads across the country.

Shahryar sits with Masrour and the palace officials to discuss the new budget, allocating the remaining state funds for himself, Scheherazade, and palace food. When Sindbad asks about the people, he says they must rely on themselves.

Shahryar falls ill, and Scheherazade stays by his side, calling a doctor to treat his heart. The doctor replaces his tired heart with another person's heart. Shahryar goes insane after receiving Nero’s heart and threatens to burn Rome.

Shahryar goes out to celebrate the full moon night because he loves this night after his heart healed. He calls an astronaut, expressing his desire to reach the moon and asks for a spacesuit. Shahryar decides to travel to space.

The slave girl, who is the computer officer, informs Shahryar that the Baghdad barber and the well-known shoemaker have become leaders of major terrorist organizations, while Shahryar himself is forgotten. This inspires Shahryar to form a large terrorist group in order to gain notoriety.

Shahryar believes media is key to fame. A journalist visits him, and Shahryar offers to provide answers while choosing the questions himself. The arrangement leads to a huge backlash, as the questions upset the entire international community and turn them against Shahryar.

Scheherazade regrets stopping telling her stories to Shahryar, as he told her he’s bored. Sindbad suggests booking a five-star hotel abroad to celebrate Independence Day, but Shahryar mocks the idea.

The chamberlain talks to Shahryar about having no heir for the throne and that Shahryar recently had a heart attack. Scheherazade overhears and lies to her husband, telling him she is pregnant.

Americastan decides to recognize Shahryar’s country, open an embassy there, and support their relations. They plan a reception overseen by Qamar Al Zaman and Sindbad. The ambassador’s wife sits with Scheherazade and asks her to tell stories from One Thousand and One Nights.

Shahryar considers appointing Qamar Al Zaman as his country’s ambassador to Americastan. Jennifer, the ambassador’s daughter, disappears, causing panic. Qamar Al Zaman finds and returns her, but the ambassador accuses him of being a terrorist and leaves with his family.

Scheherazade is upset with the slave girl Zumurrud for staying late in the garden singing and dancing. The slave girl Qut Al Qulub is alarmed when Zumurrud disappears from the palace. It becomes clear a gang kidnapped her to demand a ransom from Shahryar, and news agencies broadcast the story.

Shahryar scolds Masrour after Zumurrud’s kidnapping. The gang tries to contact Shahryar to demand a ransom. Shahryar finds their location and tells them to kidnap him instead, hoping to spark international outrage while his enemies turn against him.

Shahryar fears false accusations from the international community, which uses democracy as a cover to interfere and steal his country’s resources like oil. He asks Scheherazade to contribute her jewelry to the state budget, but she refuses.

Shahryar flirts with Badir Al Budur, who tells him she will cook his favorite fish. Masrour and Qamar Al Zaman tell Shahryar that the people only talk about Scheherazade and her stories, forgetting that Shahryar is the country’s sultan.

Several explosions occur near Shahryar’s palace. A foreign man from Sweden asks for political asylum to carry out his experiments because he learned Shahryar’s country has democracy and freedom. He wants to invent gunpowder, and Shahryar’s state helps him with the invention.

Shahryar is stunned as he watches the events of September 11. Agents from the American intelligence agency arrive, offering help to capture the perpetrators and expressing suspicion about Scheherazade’s involvement.

News reaches Shahryar that the slave girls and palace residents have dreamed of his death. Each one begins telling him her dream, so Shahryar calls an international dream expert for help.

Shahryar grows jealous of Scheherazade’s constant focus on her cellphone. Meanwhile, a terrorist group kidnaps Sindbad and accuses him of spying for Americastan.

Shahryar goes on a walk with Scheherazade and flirts with her. She becomes sad and tells him the sea is filling with nuclear waste and the sky is full of dust. Shahryar decides to hold an international summit to save the Earth.

Scheherazade asks Shahryar to change the palace décor since a thousand and one nights have passed and everything remains the same. She suggests he request a loan from the International Monetary Fund. The IMF representative arrives and imposes conditions on Shahryar.
