Answer: The fisherman's determination to outwit the genius results in the climax.
Explanation:
The Story of the Fisherman is found in The Arabian Nights Entertainments (1898), written by Andrew Lang. In it, the fisherman is threatened to death by the genius he just freed from the vase of copper, so he convinces him to go back inside the base to prove that he was actually inside it. Once the genius did, the fisherman trapped him inside with the enchanted cover.
