Just how much does he know about the future, anyway? It seems inconsistent from episode to episode. (And that's if he's telling the truth about what he sees.)


I wonder if his line at the end of the episode was in reference to him actually seeing Mirage come back to him or if it was merely his belief. I'm not sure if she ever would have. In her final appearance she didn't seem to have any second doubts about Phasir falling victim to the music box and thus her spell.

I do wonder just how close they were back in the day. When reading Mirage's wikipedia entry I assumed that Phasir had broken her heart somehow. However after watching the episode and actually hearing Phasir's closing line I was a little surprised to read that it was the opposite, with her leaving him.

Regarding Phasir, it certainly wouldn't be the first time someone had their own view of "good" that was perhaps, a bit self-centered. I kind of find it a little arrogant, reading about it. I've only seen Phasir in "Eye of the Beholder" and "While the City Sleeps". I should check out his other episodes sometime.

That's kind of what I was thinking about. If he had a vision of it and he knows that showing her how Aladdin and Jasmine's love survives will be one of the factors that causes her to give up evil in the future, then that would probably be worth it. If it's just something he wants to believe because he's in love with her... less forgivable, but still understandable. People in love do dumb things sometimes. Laughing

Ah, his last two episodes! Laughing The others are:

The Prophet Motive - the only other ep with any Fasir backstory. We get to see him as a young man 1000 years ago and we see his brother.

Do the Rat Thing - Very, very brief cameo. I wonder if Jasmine ever even figured out that was Fasir?

The Sands of Fate
Hero with a Thousand Feathers
- He's a lot more helpful in these two, although in SoF he does profit from Aladdin's actions...
