- Ready?

- Yes, Doctor.

Oh, dear.

I'll see to that.

You check the generator.

- Who's there?

- Quick! We have to get you out of here.

What's that screaming?

Patients who have been damaged,

locked in the cellar.

Quick!

Get back!

In here, quick!

So!

Run, Dorothy, run!

Come on!

Faster, Dorothy! Faster!

Stop!

Stop!

- Dorothy!

- Here, grab my hand!

Dorothy!

Jump!

Stop!

Here, Dorothy, here!

Hold on!

What's that?

I was just tryin' to lay

my egg, that's all.

Billina?

Who else?

What are you doing here?

Have you been here all night too?

I've never been so wet in my whole life.

How big is this pond anyway?

I don't think it's a pond, Billina.

- I guess it is a pond.

- Told you so.

Where did all the rest of the water go?

Where did Kansas go?

This is some place for a chicken coop.

When did you learn to talk? I thought

hens could only cluck and cackle.

Strange, ain't it? How's my grammar?

If we were in the Land of Oz,

your talking wouldn't be strange at all.

There goes the water.

High and dry.

Oz.

- Maybe this is Oz!

- Oz?

Well, I think I'll have a look around and

see if I can find myself some breakfast.

Wait!

If this is the Land of Oz,

then this is the Deadly Desert.

Deadly Desert?

It surrounds Oz. Last time

I flew over it in the old house.

Anything living that touches it

turns to sand.

Just my luck.

If we stay on these stones,

we'll be all right.

Careful.

Careful.

One, two, three!

There.

- Now, let's find something for breakfast.

- It's about time.

Then we can go on to the Emerald City

and see my friend the Scarecrow.

- Scarecrow?

- He's the King of Oz, Billina.

Look, Billina. It's a lunch pail tree.

What happened to breakfast?

Now I know we're in Oz.

Now, make sure

you don't pick a green one.

There's some ripe ones.

This one for now,

and this other one for later.

Come share my lunch with me, Billina.

Just a minute.

Nice couple of worms here.

I wonder what's inside.

And a ham sandwich?

I'm glad it's not fried chicken.

Oh, Billina, we're back in Oz!

Now I can show you all the people

and things that nobody would believe in.

Your Majesty, she has returned to Oz.

Good. Keep an eye on her.

What's the matter? What is it?

She has a chicken with her!

A chicken!

Where are all your friends?

Where is everybody?

I don't know, Billina. Oz is pretty big.

I don't like it. Makes me nervous.

Billina, this is our old house!

The one the tornado blew away!

- This is how I got to Oz the first time.

- Looks like it was a rough trip.

Billina, this used to be my bedroom.

And in there was the kitchen.

That's where we landed on

the Wicked Witch of the East.

- Wicked Witch?

- But where are all the Munchkins?
