- In King Solomon's court, the beautiful Queen is such that no man can look at her without falling under her spell. It is through her that Fakresh-el-Aamash plans to bring Solomon under his power. However, the plot is discovered and Solomon employs a one-eyed magician to work his magic on Fakresh. Fakresh is imprisoned in a brass bottle, which is thrown into the sea. Over six thousand years later, Horace Ventimore, a London architect, picks up the brass bottle at an auction. He offers it to Professor Hamilton, the father of his girlfriend Marjorie. But the Professor is not interested, and throws Harold out. In disgust, Harold tosses the bottle into a corner of his room. The bottle explodes, and Fakresh, now a Genie, rushes out and promises to grant the architect's every wish. Ventimore starts experiencing miracles all around him. One evening after dining out, he returns to his home to find it has been turned into an Arabian palace with musicians, dancers, and a sumptuous banquet. In the midst of this scene, Marjorie, arrives, accompanied by her father and mother, and all are shocked at the goings-on. Then, a wealthy customer of Harold's is shocked to find an Arabian palace built on his land, instead of the English homestead he had requested. Later, the Professor promises to help Ventimore in translating the inscription on the top of the brass bottle. The stopper is removed, and Fakresh demands its return. In anger, Fakresh turns the Professor into a mule, and the Professor's wife discovers the mule destroying the family furniture. Eventually, Fakresh relents and returns the Professor to his normal state. But the Professor is unable to find the stopper. Fakresh goes into a rage and begins destroying everything, but is tricked into compressing himself into the bottle again. The stopper is discovered, and Fakresh, firmly inside the bottle, is returned to the sea. Ventimore, now with enough money and clients, gets the Professor's consent to marry Marjorie.
