Ugh, except the singing. Rumple could definitely do WITHOUT the singing, thank you very much.

"I'm a friend, that's all you need to know," he said with a grin. "If I help you find the lamp, my payment will be...your first born child," he told him. You know, the usual kind of stuff. He needed children to raise into his minions and continue his gold spinning operation!
This was good! The creepy old man was more focused on Aladdin speaking, and not him rummaging through his pockets! Finely finding a few things he quickly pulled out the items, while listening to the payment he offered. Replying to him in a rather creeped out voice "My first born child? Erm...sure? But! On one condition. The Genie does NOT count as this child." Just to make sure that this man wouldn't try to find any loopholes and snatch his Genie away from him. It was rather odd how HE, probably the creepiest, least trustful man in this room, was the first one to offer Aladdin any help.

Also something seemed rather off about him that Aladdin didn't like "Also! Another quick deal that must be dealt with is, this deal will only happen if you complete your end of the bargain, AND if we are successful in finding the lamp. Ok?" Aladdin was still trying to make sure there was no loose edges to this deal that could be potentially cut off. Aladdin didn't want to have to lose his first born child if he couldn't find Genie. That would be distressful because how would he explain it to his wife when that happened? 'Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, our first born child is going to this creepy old man for who knows what because I had to find my Genie Lamp.' That wouldn't make that situation any better whatsoever.

Making sure that the man was distracted, Aladdin looked down at his palm to see what he snatched off this guy. In his hand there was two coins, and some pocket lint from the looks of it. The pocket lint was obviously worth nothing...but the coins on the other hand. Those seemed rather valuable. Both of the coins were gold. These type of coins didn't seem like normal currency to Aladdin. Definitely not any type of coin he has ever seen before.
