China Girl

But... I wanna go with you.

What, on a witch hunt? Nah, you're just a little girl.

China Girl

I'm not as delicate as I look! [kicks Oz in the leg]

[smirks]

That didn't hurt.

China Girl

[stubbornly]

I'm coming with you!

Listen, we have one rule in show business - never work with kids or animals... [points at Finley] ...And I'm already working with this thing. [Finley growls at him angrily] Relax. [back to China Girl] The answer is no. [China Girl starts crying, hoping to get sympathy] No, no. Don't-don't do that. You'll be fine.

Theodora

[Laughing]

OUT OF MY WAY! [flies into the city centre on her broom, causing the citizens to jump aside in fright; she lands in front of Glinda, stares at her for a moment, then kneels so that they are eye-to-eye] Give up, Glinda. Why do you continue to resist?

Glinda

Because I believe in the Wizard.

Theodora

[her face darkens with hatred and rage]

So did I, once. Behold. [she stands up, pointing to Oz's balloon full of stolen gold, rising over the city] LOOK! Your Wizard! [Glinda stares at the balloon in disbelief]

Citizen #1

Where is he going?

Citizen #2

[sadly]

He's abandoning us!

Citizen #3

[sadly]

How could he?

Glinda

[Knuck, the Master Tinker and Finley all watch in disappointment. Suddenly, an enraged Theodora conjures a red fireball and hurls it at the balloon]

No!

China Girl

[The balloon is hit by the fireball and explodes in a burst of flame, raining gold coins over the center of the square. The crowd reacts with horror as the burning balloon crashes down on the heap of gold]

No! [starts to cry]

Evanora

[mockingly]

Ohh... Not so Great and Powerful, after all.

Winkee

[Theodora stares impassively at the bonfire as Glinda and the citizens cry quietly. As the Winkees begin to move the crowds back, Finley flies over to the wreckage and retrieves Oz's smoking top hat; he clutches it and begins to cry. A Winkee guard walks over to him]

Hey- [Finley looks up, and the Winkee pulls back the brim of his helmet to reveal Oz, grinning] Hello, Monkey.

Finley

Oz! [beams, hugs him] I thought you were dead-

Shhh... You were crying pretty hard- was that for me?

Finley

Oh... no, some of the smoke got in my eyes!

[laughs, unconvinced]

Oh, right.

Finley

Wow, you fooled everybody - That was your greatest trick yet!

[grins]

That was just the opening act!

Evanora

[to the Citizens]

Let this be the final word! [Oz and Finley glance nervously in her direction as she and Theodora step forward on either side of Glinda] Your prophecy is dead. Like the king who spoke it, and the wizard who tried to fulfill it! All dead!

[to Finley]

It's showtime. [leads him towards the projection-booth carriage, where the Master Tinker and Knuck are gesturing for them]

Theodora

[to the Citizens]

And they will be joined in death, by Glinda the Good! [The citizens watch sadly as Theodora and Evanora close on Glinda] Farewell.

Evanora

Say hello to your daddy for me. [she and Theodora conjure green lightning and red flames, respectively, and begin charging up their magical energies for the killing blow]

Glinda

The dreams of the people live on.
[Just as Theodora and Evanora are about to strike, all the torches around the square are instantly extinguished]

Glinda

The dreams of the people live on.

[Just as Theodora and Evanora are about to strike, all the torches around the square are instantly extinguished. In a blast of flame, a colossal image of Oz's face appears in the center of the plaza] [thunderously]

Fear me not, good people of Oz! Fear me not! For it is I: the great and powerful Wizard of Oz!

Evanora

More tricks?! After everything?! How dare you defy us?!

[thunderously]

"Dare"?! How dare you, wicked sisters?! No-one defies Oz! [the citizens cheer]

Evanora

Guards! Destroy him!

Guard Officer

Forward! Attack! [They throw javelins, to no avail. Oz laughs; the guards retreat].

Evanora

Guards! Come back here in an instant!

[Oz is shown in the projection carriage, with Finley blowing a horn and shaking a thunder sheet for sound-effects.] [thunderously]

You thought you could kill me?! Me?! Thanks to you, I have shed my mortal shell and taken my true ethereal form. I am now more powerful than ever! I am invincible! You still doubt me?!

Theodora

Doubt you? I defy you! [throws a fireball; Finley pulls a lever; Oz's image fades].

Evanora

Beautifully done, sister.

Theodora

Thank you.

Finley

Hurry! You're taking too much time!

Hold… hold…

Finley

They think they're winning!

Put it back on!
[the Tinker works the machine; no effect] .

What're you doing? Put it back on!

Tinker

Loose wire. Screw's stuck!

Hold on! Use this! [gives him a tool]

Tinker

Got it.

Great.

Theodora

[the image re-appears]

This can't be!

[laughs, then thunderously]

You cannot defeat me! I am immortal! I am the great and powerful Wizard of Oz! [the citizens cheer] Now, witness and observe, as I unleash the stars! Behold!
[Unseen by the witches, the Munchkins launch rockets, which explode into shimmering bursts and fill the sky above the city with light] .

Glinda

[sotto voce]

So those are fireworks.

Evanora

He is the Wizard. [retreats]

Knuck

We got Evanora! She's on the run!

Alright! We got one!

Theodora

Come back, you coward! And you said I was the weak one!
[the China Girl frees Glinda]
