Ep. 12: Mermaid's Gift

12

While Sinbad continues fishing for Judel until he recovers, the mermaid returns and asks him to buy some fruits for her people, repaying him with a basket full of gems. When he and Saleem try to exchange them for money, they and Judel are arrested as suspected thieves. When Sinbad tries to prove his claims that the jewels are a mermaid's gift, and the mermaid does not appear, the king orders him drowned. The mermaid saves Sinbad, and he persuades her to show herself to the king. The king promises to protect the mermaids from human persecution, and after being given the jewels as a gift, he appoints Judel and Saleem as ministers at his court. (Source: Wikipedia)
