MAYOR: | Are… are you a good witch or a bad witch? |
DOROTHY: | (startled) Oh! |
TOTO: | (growling) Grrrrr! |
DOROTHY: | Toto! Where are your manners!
(She shakes her fingers at TOTO. Then she turns back to the
MAYOR.) Good day! |
MAYOR: | Good day, miss. What kind of witch are you? |
DOROTHY: | My name is Dorothy Gale, and I’m from Kansas,
and I don’t know anything about witches. |
MUNCHKINS: | He, he, he! |
MAYOR: | (apologetically) Well, I’m the Mayor
of Munchkinland, and these are the other Munchkins. |
DOROTHY: | (confused) What’s a Munchkin? |
MUNCHKINS: | He, he, he! |
MAYOR: | Why, we’re Munchkins. |
DOROTHY: | Oh. (still confused, somewhat sarcastically)
That explains everything! |
MOPP:: | And what we’d like to know is... |
GLOOP: | What kind of witch are you? |
SLIPP: | Good or bad? |
DOROTHY: | Why, I’m not a witch at all! |
MUNCHKINS: | He, he, he! |
MAYOR: | But you must be a witch! |
DOROTHY: | (surprised) I must? |
ORP: | Here comes Glinda! |
MUNCHKINS: | Ahhh!(sounds of delight) |
BLURP: | She’ll help us decide what kind of witch you are!! |
| (Glinda enters). |
DOROTHY: | My goodness! Hello, your majesty! |
GLINDA: | (laughs) Oh, no, no, dear! I’m not royalty.
You may call me "Glinda." Just "Glinda." |
DOROTHY: | Oh. Well I’m very pleased to meet you, ma’am.
My name is Dorothy. And this is Toto. |
GLINDA: | I’m very pleased to meet you both. |
DOROTHY: | These people seem to think I’m a witch! |
MUNCHKINS: | (nodding) Um, hmmm! |
DOROTHY: | But I’m not at witch! I’m a little girl.
I’m from Kansas. Only... I’m confused. This doesn’t seem
to be Kansas anymore. |
GLINDA: | No, it certainly doesn’t. |
DOROTHY: | But I do know that I’m not any nasty old witch! |
MUNCHKINS: | He, he, he! |
DOROTHY: | They don’t believe me. |
GLINDA: | Well you see, Dorothy, the Munchkins are
laughing because I am a witch. |
DOROTHY: | You? But you’re so… nice. So pretty. |
GLINDA: | Thank you. |
DOROTHY: | I thought all witches were bad. |
GLINDA: | Oh some of them are! But not all. There
are good and bad witches just like anything else. The one you
killed was very bad! |
DOROTHY: | Killed!? But I didn’t kill anyone! |
MUNCHKINS: | He, he, he! |
GLINDA: | Well, maybe you didn’t, dear, but your
house landed right on top of the Wicked Old Witch of the East. |
MOPP: | And there are her feet... |
GLOOP: | ...sticking out from under it. |
| (DOROTHY turns to see what they are pointing
at, sees the witches legs under the house and gasps) |
DOROTHY: | Oh! |
SLIPP: | And those are her ruby slippers! |
DOROTHY: | (close to tears) Oh, dear! I didn’t mean
to kill her. I don’t want to harm anyone! |
GLINDA: | It’s all right, Dorothy. |
ORP: | She was very wicked. |
BLURP: | She kept us enslaved. |
MAYOR: | But now, thanks to you, we’re free! |
| (The MUNCHKIN’s cheer. One of the
MUNCHKINS brings the slippers over to DOROTHY). |
