Studio 3 veteran Eben Kuhns plays Sinbad, a lowly porter who makes a delivery to the home of the famous, and elderly, Sinbad the Sailor. There, the porter meets Ittifaq (Kindra Cook), the sailor's feisty daughter.

With his delivery made, the young Sinbad begins to leave when an ancient sorceress casts a spell that threatens the lives of everyone in the city (Baghdad). Faced with a dilemma, the aged Sinbad tasks his daughter and Sinbad the porter to get the antidote, which is a flower, in a cave under the sea. A genie (Jason Hammock) aids the pair while the evil sorceress complicates things by trying to drain Ittifaq's life force in order to become young again.
