Iago/Relationships

The relationships of Iago.
==Allies ==
===Aladdin===
In the first film Iago and Aladdin don't interact directly with each other, he is just there. Aladdin, however, does know he is there.
In the sequel, Iago tries to use Aladdin's good nature to get backinto palace, but Aladdin accuses him of betrayal and chases him. The whole scenario ends, when Iago unintentionally saves Aladdin from Abis Mal and his gang, and Aladdin decides to take him to palace to be judged by Sultan fairly, yet he needs time to come up with an explanation. Things go awry, when Abu's prank with Rajah causes Iago to crash the dinner and reveal his presence, causing both Jasmine and Sultan to reprimand Aladdin. Aladdin nonetheless defends Iago, which causes Iago to turn over a new leaf. From this moment, Iago and Aladdin begin to bond, although it's disrupted due to Jafar's scheme, in which Iago unwillingly sends Aladdin and Sultan into a trap. Unable to bear the guilt, he frees the Genie and he saves Aladdin in the nick of time from an execution on false charges. When Aladdin sees Iago again, he instantly lashes at him, until Jasmine says Iago saved them out of his own will. Iago flees, but returns, when Aladdin and others fight Jafar. After Iago, seriously injured from Jafar's shock, kicks his lamp into lava to destroy him, Aladdin saves him. Iago is fully forgiven and joins Aladdin's band, becoming Aladdin's second-most loyal companion after Abu.
===Jasmine===
In the first film, Iago doesn't seem to like Jasmine. He mocks her behind her back and even suggests to Jafar, that they kill her once they are in power. Jasmine doesn't seem to mind him as he pretends to be a regular parrot, but after he reveals his true colors, she holds him in contempt like she does Jafar. She appears distressed as Iago takes his revenge on her helpless father, begging Jafar to make him stop.
In the sequel, Jasmine is more than unhappy, when Aladdin brought Iago back into palace in secret, causing friction between their relationship. However, with Genie's encouragement, Iago uses reverse-psychology to make Jasmine realize she still loves him, and also mentions her he saved Aladdin's life, something Aladdin never managed to say. Later Jasmine openly tells him she was wrong about Iago, yet this remark nearly dies, when Iago's part in Jafar's plan is exposed. But when Iago decides to rescue everyone, Jasmine is the first to forgive him.
===Abu===
Much like Jafar acts as the opponent to Aladdin in the first film, Iago does the same for Abu. In the sequel, they start from where they left off, with Abu attempting to have Rajah attack him, when Iago tries to persuade him to let him out of the cage. After the defeat of Jafar, Iago and Abu develop a solid partnership, working together for the most part. Although Iago sees Abu as a partner in crime, he also cares about him and will stick his neck out for him once in a while.
===The Sultan===
In the first film, Iago doesn't hide is immense disdain towards Sultan, mainly because he force feeds crackers to him. Sultan, on the other hand, is completely oblivious to Iago's disdain. Only after Jafar becomes the sultan and Iago turns tables on the Sultan, does he then realize how Iago always hated him. After Jafar's defeat, Sultan became to hold a deep grudge towards Iago because of what he did to him. As soon as he discovers Iago has returned to the palace, he immediately orders for his arrest, but Aladdin's defense causes him to give Iago one chance to prove he has reformed, although he is most unhappy about it. Only after Iago selflessly rescues all of Aladdin's friends from Jafar's clutches, does Sultan forgive him. He also no longer feeds crackers to him.

===Jafar===
Before his reform, he used to work for Jafar in the first film, since they were servants of the Sultan, although sometimes, he got angry easily since Jafar always told him to wait.
During the climax of the film, Iago and Jafar learned that Prince Ali would arrive in the city with the purpose of marrying Jasmine, to avoid this he and Jafar confronted him after their romantic night, and then threw him into the sea, after Aladdin came to the surface thanks to the help of the genie, the two realized that it was actually Aladdin in disguise and that he had the lamp, Jafar ordered Iago to steal the lamp and then give it to him, after Jafar became together in the new sultan of Agrabah Iago was always aware of him, since once in the final battle, Iago was also absorbed by Jafar and being evicted to the cave of wonders once more.
