- Auntie Em: Almira Gulch, just because you own half the county doesn't mean that you have the power to run the rest of us. For 23 years, I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you, and now... well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it!
- Miss Gulch: [stopping bicycle and getting off] Gale?
- Uncle Henry: Well, howdy, Miss Gulch.
- Miss Gulch: [comes into the Gale's yard] I want to see you and your wife right away about Dorothy.
- Uncle Henry: Dorothy? Well, what has Dorothy done?
- Miss Gulch: What she's done? I'm all but lame from the bite on my leg!
- Uncle Henry: You mean she bit you?
- Miss Gulch: No, her dog!
- Uncle Henry: Oh, she bit her dog, eh?
- [Uncle Henry lets go of the gate, it hits Miss Gulch on the backside]
- Miss Gulch: [exasperated] No!
- Professor Marvel: As for you, my galvanized friend, you want a heart. You don't know how lucky you are not to have one. Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
- 'Hickory': But, I... I still want one.
- [Dorothy watches Miss Gulch was melting]
- Miss Gulch: [her final lines] You cursed brat! Look what you've done! I'm melting! melting! Oh, what a world! What a world! Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness? Oooooh, look out! I'm going! Oooooh! Ooooooh!
- Professor Marvel: And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others.
- Dorothy: [has just arrived in Oz, looking around and awed at the beauty and splendor] Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas any more.
- Dorothy: [after a pause] We must be over the rainbow!
- [a bubble appears in the sky and gets closer and closer. It finally lands, then turns into Glinda the Good Witch wearing a spectacular pink dress and crown, holding a wand]
- Dorothy: [to Toto] Now I... I know we're not in Kansas!
- Munchkin Coroner: [singing] As Coroner I must aver, I thoroughly examined her, and she's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead.
- Miss Gulch: You stay out of this, Glinda! Or I'll fix you as well!
- Glinda: Oh-ho-ho-ho, rubbish! You have no power here! Now begone, before somebody drops a house on you, too.
- [Wicked Witch glances nervously at the sky]
- Dorothy: Your Majesty, if you were king, you wouldn't be afraid of anything?
- 'Zeke': Not nobody! Not nohow!
- 'Hickory': Not even a rhinoceros?
- 'Zeke': Imposerous!
- Dorothy: How about a hippopotamus?
- 'Zeke': Why, I'd thrash him from top to bottomus!
- Dorothy: Supposing you met an elephant?
- 'Zeke': I'd wrap him up in cellophant!
- 'Hunk': What if it were a brontosaurus?
- 'Zeke': I'd show him who was king of the forest!
- Miss Gulch: Just try and stay out of my way. Just try! I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog, too!
- Professor Marvel: Back where I come from there are men who do nothing all day but good deeds. They are called phila... er, phila... er, yes, er, Good Deed Doers.
- Dorothy: [singing] Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow. Why then, oh why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why oh why cant I?
- Professor Marvel: [to Zeke] As for you, my fine friend, you're a victim of disorganized thinking. You are under the unfortunate delusion that simply because you run away from danger, you have no courage. You're confusing courage with wisdom.
- Professor Marvel: Why, anybody can have a brain. That's a very mediocre commodity. Every pusillanimous creature that crawls on the Earth or slinks through slimy seas has a brain. Back where I come from, we have universities, seats of great learning, where men go to become great thinkers. And when they come out, they think deep thoughts and with no more brains than you have. But they have one thing you haven't got a diploma.
- 'Zeke': Courage! What makes a king out of a slave? Courage! What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage! What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder? Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the "ape" in apricot? What have they got that I ain't got?
- Dorothy, 'Hunk', 'Hickory': Courage!
- 'Zeke': You can say that again!... Huh?
- [last lines]
- Dorothy: Oh, but anyway, Toto, we're home. Home! And this is my room, and you're all here. And I'm not gonna leave here ever, ever again, because I love you all, and - oh, Auntie Em - there's no place like home!
- 'Hunk': I've got a plan to get in there.
- 'Zeke': Great, he's got a plan.
- 'Hunk': And you're going to lead us.
- 'Zeke': Yeah!... me?
- 'Hunk': Yes, you.
- 'Zeke': I... I... I gotta get her out of *there*?
- 'Hickory': That's right.
- 'Zeke': [determined] All right. I'll go in there for Dorothy. Wicked Witch or no Wicked Witch, guards or no guards, I'll tear them apart. I may not come out alive, but I'm going in there. There's only one thing I want you fellas to do.
- 'Hunk', 'Hickory': What's that?
- 'Zeke': Talk me out of it.
- Dorothy: Now which way do we go?
- 'Hunk': Pardon me, this way is a very nice way.
- [Dorothy reacts to the Scarecrow was Hunk, who points to the way]
- Dorothy: Who said that?
- [Toto barks at scarecrow]
- Dorothy: Don't be silly, Toto. Scarecrows don't talk.
- 'Hunk': [points other way] It's pleasant down that way, too.
- Dorothy: That's funny. Wasn't he pointing the other way?
- 'Hunk': [points both ways] Of course, some people do go both ways.
- 'Hunk': The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side. Oh joy! Rapture! I got a brain! How can I ever thank you enough?
- Professor Marvel: Well, you can't.
- 'Hunk': Help! Help! Help!
- [Flying Monkeys leave; Hickory and Zeke runs to Hunk, who is messed up]
- 'Hickory': Well, what happened to you?
- 'Hunk': They tore my legs off and they threw them over there! Then they took my chest out and they threw it over there...!
- 'Hickory': Oh, that's you all over!
- 'Zeke': Sure knocked the stuffing out of you, didn't they?
- 'Hunk': Don't stand there talking! Put me together! We've got to find Dorothy!
- [Hickory and Zeke start gathering up his straw]
- Dorothy: Goodbye, Tin Man. Oh, don't cry! You'll rust so dreadfully. Here. Here's your oil can.
- [kisses him]
- Dorothy: Goodbye.
- 'Hickory': Now I know I've got a heart, 'cause it's breaking...
- Dorothy: Goodbye, Lion. You know, I know it isn't right, but I'm going to miss the way you used to holler for help before you found your courage.
- 'Zeke': [tearfully] I never would've found it, if it hadn't been for you...
- Dorothy: [to Hunk] I think I'll miss you most of all.
- [hugs and kisses him]
- 'Hickory': What have you learned, Dorothy?
- Dorothy: Well, I - I think that it - it wasn't enough to just want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em - and it's that - if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with! Is that right?
- Dorothy: My goodness, what a fuss you're making! Well naturally, when you go around picking on things weaker than you are, why, you're nothing but a great big coward!
- 'Zeke': [crying] You're right, I am a coward! I haven't any courage at all. I even scare myself.
- [sobs]
- 'Zeke': Look at the circles under my eyes, I haven't slept in weeks!
- 'Hickory': Why don't you try counting sheep?
- 'Zeke': That doesn't do any good, I'm afraid of 'em!
- 'Hunk': Aw, that's too bad.
- 'Zeke': I do believe in spooks, I do believe in spooks. I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I...
- [cut to Miss Gulch and the winged monkeys watching Zeke in the crystal ball]
- 'Zeke': Do believe in spooks, I do believe in spooks, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do!
- Miss Gulch: [cackles] You'll believe in more than that before I'm finished with you.
- Auntie Em: Now, you just help us out today and find yourself a place where you won't get into any trouble!
- Dorothy: Someplace where there isn't any trouble. Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto? There must be. It's not a place you can get to by a boat or a train. It's far, far away. Behind the moon, beyond the rain...
- [sings]
- Dorothy: Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high, there's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby. Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue... and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true. Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far behind me... where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me... Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow... why, then, oh why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow... why oh why can't I?
- Dorothy: [sings] It really was no miracle. What happened was just this: the wind began to switch, the house, to pitch! And suddenly the hinges started to unhitch. Just then, the Witch, to satisfy an itch, went flying on her broomstick, thumbing for a hitch!
- Munchkin: [singing] And ooh, what happened then was rich!
- Munchkins: [singing] The house began to pitch, the kitchen took a slitch! It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch! Which, was not a happy si-tu-ation for the Wicked Witch!
- Captain of the Winkie Guard: [after the Wicked Witch has melted] She's... She's dead. You killed her.
- Dorothy: I didn't mean to kill her. Really, I didn't. It's just that he was on fire.
- Captain of the Winkie Guard: Hail to Dorothy! The Wicked Witch is dead!
- The Winkies: [all kneel before Dorothy] *Hail*! Hail to Dorothy! The Wicked Witch is dead!
- Dorothy: The broom! May we have it?
- Captain of the Winkie Guard: [hands Dorothy the broomstick] Please. And take it with you.
- Dorothy: Oh, thank you so much! Now we can go back to the Wizard, and tell him the Wicked Witch is dead!
- The Winkies: The Wicked Witch is dead!
- 'Zeke': Put 'em up, put 'em up! Which one of you first? I'll fight you both together if you want. I'll fight you with one paw tied behind my back. I'll fight you standing on one foot. I'll fight you with my eyes closed... ohh, pullin' an axe on me, eh? Sneaking up on me, eh? Why, I'll... Ruff!
- Professor Marvel: As for you, my galvanized friend, you want a heart. You don't know how lucky you are not to have one. Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
- Title Card: [opening title card of dedication] For nearly forty years this story has given faithful service to the Young in Heart; and Time has been powerless to put its kindly phiosophy out of fashion. To those of you who have been faithful to it in return... and to the Young in Heart... we dedicate this picture.
- 'Zeke': [singing] I'd be brave as a blizzard...
- 'Hickory': [singing] I'd be gentle as a lizard...
- 'Hunk': [singing] I'd be clever as a gizzard...
- Dorothy: [singing] If the Wizard is a wizard who will serve.
- 'Hunk': [singing] Then I'm sure to get a brain...
- 'Hickory': [singing] A heart...
- Dorothy: [singing] A home...
- 'Zeke': [singing] The nerve!
- Professor Marvel: They have one thing you haven't got: a diploma. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitartus Committiartum E Pluribus Unum, I hereby confer upon you the honorary degree of ThD.
- 'Hunk': ThD?
- Professor Marvel: That's... Doctor of Thinkology.
- Dorothy: Weren't you frightened?
- Professor Marvel: Frightened? You're talking to a man who's laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom, and chuckled at catastrophe... I was petrified.
- Ozmites: [singing] We get up at 12 and start to work at 1! Take an hour for lunch and then, at 2, we're done! Jolly good fun!
- Dorothy: [as the Wizard's balloon goes off without her] Oh! Come back! Come back! Don't go without me! Please come back!
- Professor Marvel: I can't come back, I don't know how it works! Good-bye, folks!
- [the people shout and wave goodbye]
- Dorothy: Oh no, I'll never get home...
- [she begins to cry]
- 'Zeke': [emotionally] Stay with us then, Dorothy. We all love ya. We don't... want you to go.
- Dorothy: Oh, that's very kind of you. But this could never be like Kansas. Auntie Em must have stopped wondering what happened to me by now! Oh, Scarecrow, what am I gonna do?
- 'Hunk': [pointing] Look! Here's someone who can help you!
- [Glinda's pink bubble descends]
- Miss Gulch: How about a little fire, Scarecrow?
- 'Hunk': No!
- [Miss Gulch sets fire to his arm, Dorothy screams and she cackles]
- 'Hunk': Help, I'm burning, I'm burning!
- [Dorothy grabs a bucket]
- Miss Gulch: Don't throw that water!
- [Dorothy heaves the bucket at the fire, the water splashes at Miss Gulch, screams]
- Miss Gulch: You cursed brat! Look what you've done! I'm melting! Melting! Oh, what a world, what a world! Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness! Oh, look out! Look out! I'm going...! Ooooohhhhh, ooooooohhhhhhh...
- Glinda: Are you a good witch, or a bad witch?
- Dorothy: Who me? I'm not a witch at all. I'm Dorothy Gale, from Kansas.
- Glinda: Oh. Well, is that the witch?
- [pointing to Toto]
- Dorothy: Who, Toto? Toto's my dog!
- Glinda: [laughs] Well, I'm a little muddled! The Munchkins called me because a new witch has just dropped a house on the Wicked Witch of the East. And there's the house, and here you are, and that's all that's left of the Wicked Witch of the East.
- [she points to a pair of legs sticking out from under the house; Dorothy gasps]
- Glinda: So, what the Munchkins want to know is, are you a good witch, or a bad witch?
- Dorothy: But, I've already told you, I'm not a witch at all! Witches are old, and ugly!
- [they hear giggles]
- Dorothy: What was that?
- Glinda: The Munchkins. They're laughing because, I *am* a Witch. I'm Glinda, the Witch of the North.
- Dorothy: You are?
- [she curtsies]
- Dorothy: Oh, I beg your pardon! But, I've never heard of a beautiful witch before.
- Dorothy: [Toto is held hostage by Miss Gulch and Nikko] What are you gonna do to my dog? Give him back to me!
- Miss Gulch: All in good time, my little pretty. All in good time.
- Dorothy: Oh, please give me back my dog!
- Miss Gulch: Certainly, certainly. When you give me those slippers.
- Dorothy: But the Good Witch of the North told me not to!
- Miss Gulch: Very well.
- [to Nikko]
- Miss Gulch: Throw that basket in the river and drown him!
- Dorothy: NO! No no, here... you can have your old slippers, but give me back Toto!
- Miss Gulch: That's a good little girl. I knew you'd see reason.
- [stooped to take the shoes but fire leaps out and burns her]
- Miss Gulch: Aagh!
- Dorothy: Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't do it! Can I still have my dog?
- Miss Gulch: No! Fool that I am! I should have remembered; those slippers will never come off, as long as you're alive. But that's not what's worrying me. It's how to do it. These things must be done delicately, or you hurt the spell.
- [Toto leaps from the basket and runs for it]
- Dorothy: Run Toto, RUN!
- Miss Gulch: Catch him!
- [Guards throw spears at Toto]
- Dorothy: Run, Toto, run! Run Toto, run! He got away! He got away!
- Miss Gulch: Which is more than you will! Drat you and your dog! You've been more trouble to me than you're worth one way or another, but it'll soon be over now!
- [grabs an hourglass and turns it over]
- Miss Gulch: See that? That's how much longer you've got to be alive! And it isn't long, my pretty, it isn't long! I can't wait forever to get those shoes!
- Munchkin Mayor: Then this is a day of independence for all the Munchkins and their descendants!
- Munchkin: If any!
- Munchkin Mayor: Yes - let the joyous news be spread! The Wicked Old Witch at last is dead!
- Dorothy: Did you say something?
- [indiscernible sounds from the rusted Tin Man was Hickory]
- Dorothy: He said oil can!
- 'Hunk': Oil can what?
- Dorothy: Oil can...? What... Oh! Here it is! Where do you want to be oiled first?
- [Hickory squeaks]
- 'Hunk': He said his mouth!
- [they dab oil into the corners of Hickory's mouth]
- 'Hickory': [working his mouth loose] Muh... ma... me... mah... my, my goodness, I can talk again! Oh, oil my arms please! Oil my elbows!
- [they do so, and help to wrench down the arm holding up the axe]
- Dorothy: [concerned] Oh, did that hurt?
- 'Hickory': No, it feels wonderful. I've held that axe up for ages.
- 'Hickory': Where do we go now?
- 'Zeke': Yeah...
- [Toto barks]
- 'Hunk': There!
- [they follow Toto up the stairs, he scratches at the door to the room with Dorothy]
- 'Hunk': Wait, we better make sure. Dorothy, are you in there? It's us!
- Dorothy: [running to the door] Yes! It's me! She locked me in!
- 'Zeke': Come on! We gotta get her out! Open the door!
- Dorothy: Oh hurry, please, hurry! The hourglass is almost empty!
- 'Hickory': Stand back!
- [he takes his axe to the door; it swings open just as the last sand trickles away]
- Dorothy: Oh! Oh, Toto! Lion, darling! Oh I knew you'd come! I knew you would.
- 'Hunk': Hurry! We've got no time to lose!
- [they race down the stairs; the doors bang shut on them]
- Miss Gulch: [cackling] Going so soon? I wouldn't hear of it! Why, my little party's just beginning!
