who remembers Oz,

and I will be completely human.

Oz.

Dorothy!

Smudge and blazes!

- Scarecrow!

- Dorothy.

- You were green.

- What?

- You were a green ornament.

- I was?

Maybe people from Oz

turn into green ornaments.

Fumes and furnaces!

Green. Green, green, green.

Green. It's green!

You let her escape!

It's green, Dorothy. Green.

Oz!

Oh, it's you! The Gump!

Petrified polymorphs!

Look for green ornaments, quick.

We've still got Tik-Tok, Jack

and Billina to find.

You had her and you let her escape!

It wasn't my fault!

If you'd given me a real army...

I'll take care of you later!

What? Oh, no!

Oh, Wheelers. Help me!

Dorothy!

- What's happening?

- I was gonna ask you the same thing.

Whoa!

- Scarecrow!

- Dorothy!

Hang on, Dorothy.

Stop!

Dorothy! Dorothy!

It's green!

- Stop!

- Oz!

- Jack!

- Oh, Mom! Where am I?

What's happening? Who's that?

Stop!

We haven't finished guessing yet.

- You promised if we guessed correctly...

- I'm tired of games.

I'm tired of all of you!

Why doesn't the sofa go first?

No! No! No!

Come on! Pull!

Next, Pumpkinhead!

- No!

- Run!

Run! Hurry!

Faster!

Nomes!

Back! Go back!

This way!

Quick, run away!

Come on! Scarecrow!

Mom!

No!

No!

Oh, dear!

Billina.

Oh, no! Oh, dear!

Mom!

An egg?

- Poison.

- Poison.

- Poison.

- Poison.

- Poison.

- Poison.

Oh, put me down.

Oh, Mom!

Mom! Look out! Look out!

I finally laid my egg!

Oh, my head!

Don't you know

that eggs are poison?

Poison, indeed!

Poison.

Poison to Nomes!

- Hurry, Dorothy!

- I am! I am!

What are we gonna do now?

I wish all of us from Oz

to return there safely,

and for the Emerald City and all

the people in it to be restored to life!

I must say, this life is stranger

than my last one.

Where's Tik-Tok?

We never found him.

- Oh, no.

- Where'd you get that?

There's a medal on your antler.

That must've come

from the ornament collection.

Go on. Touch it, Dorothy.

Oz!

Oh, Dorothy. My thinking

must have completely run down.

I do not remember

leaving the Nome Kingdom.

Everything's all right now.

Hi. Hi.

Be the Queen of Oz, Dorothy.

Be the Queen of Oz!

- Be the Queen of Oz!

- The Queen of Oz!

The Queen of Oz!

Be the Queen of Oz!

You're the best friends

anyone's ever had.

I've got to go back.

We understand, Dorothy.

Do you?

I wish I could be in both places

at the same time.

Look! Behind you, in the mirror!

It's you.

I was afraid you had drowned.

Help me step through

the glass, Dorothy.

You're so beautiful.

- What's your name?

- Ozma.

Mom! My real mom.

She is Ozma,

Queen and rightful ruler of Oz!

Her father was King of Oz

before the Wizard came.

Ozma grew up as Mombi's slave.

When the Nome King promised Mombi

30 beautiful heads

if she kept Ozma a secret,

she enchanted her into the mirror.

I forgive Mombi.

Dorothy has punished her

by removing her magical powers,

and a witch with no magic

is a miserable creature indeed.

And that's a fact.

Now, please, wish me back to Kansas.

On one condition.

I will look in on you from time to time,

and if you ever wish to return to Oz,

I will make it so.

Goodbye, Dorothy.

You're not coming back, Billina?

No. Not to that stupid,

humdrum world again.

Goodbye, Dorothy.

Oh, no. I mean, I didn't

expect to go so soon.

I haven't really said goodbye yet.

Goodbye, Cowardly Lion.

- Goodbye, Dorothy.

- Tik-Tok.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye, Dorothy.

I'll never forget any of you.

Give my love to all the chickens.

- Dorothy...

- I love you so much.

- Farewell!

- Goodbye, Dorothy.

Farewell, Dorothy!

- It's so bright.

- Goodbye, Dorothy.

- Goodbye, Dorothy.

- I love you all! Goodbye!

- Goodbye.

- Bye, Dorothy.

Goodbye! Goodbye!

Goodbye. Bye.

Goodbye.

Toto?

Toto!

Toto!

Toto! Toto!

Dorothy?

Dorothy?

Dorothy!

Oh, are you all right?

Toto found me.

I'd almost given up hope.

Up you go, sweetheart.

It's Dorothy!

The clinic was hit by lightning

and it burned to the ground.

Everybody was rescued

except Dr. Worley.

He ran in to rescue his machines.

Mornin', all.

Hi, hon.

Ozma.

Aunt Em, come and look!

What is it, darling? I'm busy.

Nothing. Just a reflection.

What is it, Dorothy?

It's nice to have a room

of your own, isn't it?

Put the mirror straight, sweetheart.

Come on, you two.

It's too nice a day to stay inside.

Come on, Toto.

Toto, come on!

Good dog!
