Nessa: Elphaba! I'm proud of you! And I know father will be too. We're all proud aren't we?

Elphaba: Will you be alright without me?

Galinda: Oh yes she'll be fine. Biq will keep her company won't you Biq?

Boq: Its Boq! And I can't do this anymore

(He runs off stage)

Nessa: Boq!

Galinda: Nessa, maybe he isn't the right one for you

Nessa: No, he's the one. It's me who isn't right. Don't worry about me, Elphaba. I'll be fine. Safe journeys! 

(She leaves)

Elphaba: Nessa wait!

Galinda: Elphie, she'll have to manage without you. We all will

Elphaba: Oh please, you'll barely notice I'm gone, you have Fiyero. Where is he anyway? Not that I expected him to say goodbye to me, we barely know eachother.

Galinda: I don't know him either. He's distant and moonified and he's been thinking. Which really worries me. It all started that day when Doctor Dillamond got fired. I never knew he cared so much about that old goat... Oh there he is, he did come! Fiyero, over here dearest!

(Fiyero runs on stage holding flowers)

Fiyero: Elphaba, I'm happy for you

(He gives her the flowers)

Fiyero: I've been thinking-

Elphaba: Yes, I heard.

Fiyero: About that lion cub, and everything. I think about that day a lot.

Elphaba: So do I

Galinda: Oh, me too. I think about it constantly. Poor Doctor Dillamond. It makes one want to take a stand... In fact I've been thinking of changing my name.

Fiyero: Your name?

Galinda: Yes, since Doctor Dillamond had his own way of pronouncing my name... in solidarity, and to express my outrage. I shall hence forward be no longer known as Galinda but as simply... Glinda.

Fiyero: Umm.... That's very admirable of you... Glinda

Glinda: Fiyero...

Fiyero: Elphaba... Good luck

(He leaves)

Glinda: You see, there.

Elphaba: Oh, don't cry Galinda!

Glinda: It's Glinda now! Stupid idea. I don't even know what made me say it.

Elphaba: Oh, it doesn't matter what your name is, everyone loves you.

Glinda:  I don't care! I want him! I don't even think he's perfect anymore and I still want him! This must be what other people feel like! How can they bear it?!

Elphaba: Come with me

Glinda: Where?

Elphaba: To the Emerald City.

Glinda: Really? 

Ozians: One short day in the Emerald cityyyyyyyyy.......

Glinda: OH I've always wanted to see the Emerald City!

Ozians: One short day in the Emerald cityyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!
