Summary
Remember in 'Geppetto' where he storms out after Pinocchio gets into a fight at school and tells the Blue Fairy that Pinocchio is defective and he *DOESN'T want him anymore*, and this causes aforementioned very hurt and upset boy to run away to join Stromboli's puppet show?? ...Well, this time when Pinocchio runs away (with his conscience Jiminy Cricket and a runaway Figaro by his side) from 'home', he doesn't run towards fame and fortune onstage because he's not just a stringless puppet, but also a young child who simply wants love and affection from someone who cares for him unconditionally-!!
Somewhere along the way in the 'Magic Kingdom', he accidentally runs into and meets the 'evil' Royal Vizier Jafar ...who is not so horrid after all, but simply a very smart man who is as brokenhearted and lonely as Pinocchio ever since he lost his beloved wife Sherrezade and their unborn child. Could these two lost souls help to heal each other through the eventual story of a certain magical lamp, a spoiled princess, and a diamond in the rough (though NOT *quite* the way that you'd remember it being told) along with a couple more friends along the way; can Jafar succeed where Geppetto had failed...?
