As Dorothy and her friends continue walking down the yellow brick road the camera pans to inside the castle where the Wicked Witch is looking at Dorothy and her friends in her crystal ball. At her side is Nikko the leader of the winged monkeys.

Wicked Witch of the WestAha!" She cackled "So you won't take warning, eh? All the worse for you, then. I'll take care of you now instead of later! Ah!" She goes to get her potion "When I gain those ruby slippers, my power will be the greatest in Oz! And now my beauties something with poison in it I think. With poison in it. But attractive to the eye and soothing the smell!" She chuckled "Poppies. Poppies! Poppies will put them to sleep." The camera switches to the poppy field "Sleep. Now they'll sleep."

Just then Dorothy and her friends made it through the forest then they finally saw Emerald City.

Dorothy Gale said "There's Emerald City! Oh, we're almost there! At last! At last! It's beautiful, isn't it? Just like I knew it would be. He really must be a wonderful wizard to live in the city like that."

Cowardly Lion asked "Well, come on then what are we waiting for?"

Scarecrow said "Nothing! Let's hurry!"

Dorothy Gale said "Yes, let's run!" They start running in the poppy field.

Scarecrow cheered "Come on! Come on!"

Tin Man said "Hurry! Hurry!"

Vic said "I'm gonna beat you!" He tripped making Garfield laugh.

Scarecrow said "Oh, look! Come on! Come on!"

Tin Man said "Look at the scenery. It's wonderful! Emerald City!"

Dorothy Gale started feeling tired "Oh. What's happening? What is it? I can't run anymore. I'm so sleepy."

Scarecrow said "Here, give us your hand and we'll pull you along."

Dorothy Gale said "Oh, no, please. I have to rest for just a minute. Toto. Where's Toto? Garfield? Vic? Odie?" It was shown that all four were asleep in the field and Dorothy lies down in the field.

Scarecrow said "Oh, you can't rest now. We're nearly there." Tin Man begins to cry "Don't cry. You'll rust yourself again!"

Cowardly Lion said "Coming to think of it, forty winks wouldn't be bad."

Scarecrow said "Don't you start it too!" He and Tin Man hold Lion.

Tin Man said "No! We ought to try and carry Dorothy."

Scarecrow said "I don't think I could, but we could try."

Tin Man said "Let's."

Scarecrow said "Yes." Then Lion collapsed on the field.

Tin Man said "Now look at him. This is terrible!"

Scarecrow: Here, Tin Man, help me." They desperately tried to help a sleeping Dorothy "Oh, this is terrible! I can't budge her an inch. This is the spell, this is!"

Tin Man said realizing "It's the Wicked Witch! What'll we do?" He began screaming "HELP! HELP!"

Scarecrow said "It's no use screaming at a time like this. Nobody will hear you" he began shouting "HELP! HELP! HELP!"

As Tin Man continues crying an image of Glinda appears on camera and she waves her wand making the snow fall from the sky.

Scarecrow said "It's snowing!"

Tin Man said "No, it isn't."

Scarecrow said "Yes, it is! Maybe that'll help! Oh, but couldn't help!" Dorothy wakes up. He realized "It does help! Dorothy you're waking up!"

Dorothy Gale said sitting up "Oh. Oh."

Cowardly Lion was also waking up and yawning "Unusual weather we're having, ain't it?" Dorothy and Scarecrow chuckled

Dorothy Gale was shocked upon seeing Tin Man rusted "Look! He's rusted again. Oh, give me the oilcan, quick!"

Scarecrow said giving her the oilcan "Here. He is rusted."

Dorothy Gale was oiling Tin Man "Here. Quick! Oh! Oh!"

Back at the Wicked Witch's castle the Wicked Witch looks on as Dorothy unrusts Tin Man.

Wicked Witch of the West shouted furiously "Curses! Curses! Somebody always helps that girl." Nikko hands her the golden cap "But shoes or no shoes, I'm still great enough to conquer her. And woe to those who try to stop me!" She angrily throws the cap across the room and the camera switches back to the poppy field.

Dorothy Gale said "Come on, let's get out of here. Look! Emerald City is closer and prettier than ever!

Optimistic Voices began singing "You're out of the woods. You're out of the dark. You're out of the night. Step into the sun.Step into the light." Dorothy and her friends come out of the poppy field and heads for the Emerald City "Keep straight ahead for The most glorious place. On the face of the earth or the sky. Hold on to your breath. Hold on to your heart. Hold on to your hope. March up to that gate and bid it open."

The camera switches to the Wicked Witch she takes her broomstick and she heads to the window cackling.

Wicked Witch of the West said to her broom "To the Emerald City, as fast as lightning!"

She flies out the window on her broomstick as she cackles and she heads for the Emerald City. Then the camera switches outside of the Emerald City as Dorothy and her friends head for the green gate.

Optimistic Voices sang "You're out of the woods. You're out of the dark. You're out of the night. Step into the sun. Step into the light. March up to that gate and bid it open. Open."

Dorothy rings the door bell and the doorman sticks his head out of the door's porthole

Doorman asked "Who rang that bell?"

Dorothy and her friend said together "We did!"

Doorman asked "Can't you read?"

Vic asked "Read what?"

Doorman replied "The notice!"

Garfield and Dorothy asked "What notice?"

Doorman said "It's on the door! As plain on the nose on my face!" He groaned in frustration and does a tsk expression, he puts the notice on the door and goes back inside.

They began reading the notice together ""Bell out of order. Please knock."" Dorothy knocks the door.

Doorman said "Well! That's more like it! Now, state your business."

Dorothy and her friends said together "We wanna see the Wizard."

Doorman gasped "The Wizard? But nobody can see the great Oz. Nobody's ever seen the great Oz! Even I've never seen him!"

Dorothy Gale asked "Well, then how do you know there is one?"

Doorman sId "Because he..." he said frustrated "Oh! You're wasting my time!" He was about to go inside.

Dorothy Gale said "Oh, please. Please, sir. I've got to see the Wizard. The Good Witch of the North sent me."

Doorman said "Prove it!"

Vic said "She's wearing the ruby slippers that she gave her." Dorothy shows the doorman the ruby slippers.

Doorman understood "Oh! So she is! Well, bust my buttons! Why didn't you say that in the first place?" Dorothy and her friends smiled "That's a horse of a different color! Come on in!" She laughed joyfully.

The doors open as Dorothy and her friends see inside the Emerald City. The Ozian citizens all wear green clothes.
