However, if Jakob does not provide practical proof of his theories within 24 hours, his project is to have the lights switched off or the funding withdrawn. On the umpteenth attempt, the unbelievable suddenly happens: a simple beer bottle turns into an oriental miracle vessel in the transformer - in which the genie Tabatah lives! She was supposed to be married off to the Prince of Baghdad by her uncle Assis, but falls in love with her new lord and master Jacob, to whom she now owes three wishes. But Jacob is far too busy to realize who Tabatah really is and how she feels about him.
