Also, everybody keeps wanting to see both Aladdin and Jasmine, but the latter would have to have her backstory heavily revised (given that we've already seen the Sultan of Agrabah and he had no children other than the bastard [literally and figuratively] Jafar) and we've already essentially seen the former in the person of Cyrus (who is Aladdin in all but name). The bottle was transported just as Cyrus and his brothers bottles were. My theory is the bottle was transported to EF and found by Aladdin during the missing year. So Jafar is Aladdin's genie. Aladdin, being rather naive, and Jafar, being rather cunning, manipulates Aladdin in an effort to get free from the bottle. His plan finally works sometime after everyone has been transported back to Storybrooke, and Jafar can now be a major villian. As far as Jasmine, the Sultan never said he didn't have a daughter, it's just he only had one legitimate son (Murzir). The way they were doing Agrabah, I doubt a female heir would be allowed to rule, so that's why she never came up. Also, I think Aladdin would play very different that Cyrus, although I see a few similarities.
