Asha is a genie who lives in LA, masquerading as a human Pop Star. Since her last master died before asking for his final wish, and being buried with Asha's Bottle. Haji has granted Asha the ability to stay in the human world without returning to her bottle.
Jean AKA Jeannie AKA Jeanie is a film, book, and magazine reviewer for a national magazine. Most of Jean’s work is done through email, which means he doesn't have to go into the office.
On a trip to find a gift for his girlfriend, Jean found an empty Genie Bottle. Upon picking up this bottle, Jean became the bottle’s new genie-powered occupant. Not only was Jean turned into a genie, but the bottle turned him into what he believed a genie of the bottle should look like. Which, due to his fascination with a classic 60s TV show, turned him into a busty blonde woman.
So, what I understand so far is: Asha wants is Jeanie to be bad enough so Guano doesn´t gets to be the next Haji so she doesn´t has to take his place as a lord, but not too bad, because if Jeanie gets banished in Haji´s day will also end with Guano as Haji and Asha as a lord?
Also, I think there is Mix up in the tags this week.
yea, because you can expect that the smart but evil ones will do somethings in a certain way because it makes the most sense, much like a high stakes chess match.
But the dumb ones can come up with something completely out of left field that while incredibly stupid it might actually work, because no one thought they’d actually try something like that.
That appears to be Asha motivation, for Jeanie to create just enough trouble to keep Guano from being promoted to being the next Haji and so Asha won’t be promoted the the next Genie Lord. In other words, Asha doesn’t want to be Genie Lord and she trying to get Jeanie screw Guano just enough to keep that from happening.
No, we don’t want that! We want the higher up in the order of Genie messing with Jeanie, because is seem to add something more to the story that way. Those bends and twist that you wouldn’t get otherwise. Of course, if she did become the Haji she could mess with Neil with impunity too, there would be no higher ups to complain about the situation too.
If I keep Neil up all night he will sleep all day tomorrow and won’t be able to send me back until it’s to late. Is our girl about to become a couch kitten? Go for it Neil?

Tags are fixed.
Guano is so horrible he causes trouble even indirectly! But he’s more stupid and incompetent than evil though (unlike the intern)
Stupid can cause just as much, if not more harm, than evil.
Mihoshi – nuff said.

So basically, Asha wants Jean to keep doing what she’s doing so Guano doesn’t get promoted.

Jean, I got a call from a “Karma” they want to let you know that they’re visiting and you’re on the top of their list.
It is time to enact plan “P”. PANIC!!!!!
Jean’s expression in the last panel is great. “It’s possible that I have screwed up bad, I’d better go check and see if there’s any hope.” LOL.
Hehe, yup! I really like that expression.
An amnesia spell would come in really handy about now.
Yeah. Who knows what some evil djinn will trick him into?
Soooo . . . Jean’s choices are Guano (who hates dealing with her) or Asha (read above if you haven’t yet)? To quote Mayor Quimby, “I am so screwed”.
It should be “Toodles” instead of “Tootles.”
“Tootles” is an accepted spelling of this word.
Alya is contender for the only nice genie in existence so far.
Hmm… well there is only one logical solution. Jean will have to try and become the next Haji. Unlikely yes. Impossible.. probably?
With Big Blue’s help? Shockingly plausible.
No, we don’t want that! We want the higher up in the order of Genie messing with Jeanie, because is seem to add something more to the story that way.

Now that’s an idea I can get behind. 🙂
