The Muppets' Wizard of Oz Page #4

Synopsis: Dorothy Gale lives with her Auntie Em and Uncle Henry in a trailer park in Kansas. Dorothy has dreams of becoming a famous singer, but when a tornado hits Kansas and Dorothy rushes to save Toto, her prawn (she couldn't afford a dog), she is whisked away to Oz where she meets the four witches (all played by Miss Piggy) and the Munchkins of Oz (the rats). On her way to see the Wizard, she meets the Scarecrow (Kermit), the Tin Thing (Gonzo), and the Cowardly Lion (Fozzie) who all wish to have something given by the wizard. On their way to Emerald City, they are captured by the Wicked Witch of the West (of course, Miss Piggy) and her flying monkeys (other muppets). When they finally make it back to Emerald City, the Wizard is really a man from Hollywood. But he "grants" their wishes, but what they wanted they already had inside (there's a lesson there). When Dorothy finally is back in Kansas, she becomes what she had wanted, a famous singer and on the Muppets Star Search show.

but I am a singer.

- I mean, I want to be a singer.

- (Toto) Mm, and she's very good, OK.

A singer? Really?

Oh, that's so funny! I'm a singer too.

Yes, my sisters and I were once

the hottest girl band in Oz.

Yeah!

But all that fame and fortune

left me feeling empty inside.

So I quit show biz

and committed my life to advancing rights

for the vertically challenged of Oz,

my little Munchie-wunchies.

- Aw!

- Cuddles!

(giggling)

Oh, yes!

(kissing noises)

Well, it's been nice meeting you and all,

but I should probably be on my way.

Anyone know how to get

to Kansas from here?

Never heard of it.

Is this Kansas a civilized country?

Well, if by civilized you mean flat,

boring and gray, yeah, it's civilized.

- Well, then, why do you want to go back?

- Yeah, why do we want to go back?

Well, because... Aunt Em and... Well...

I don't know what Kansas is,

but if you want to be a famous singer,

- you must see the wonderful Wizard of Oz.

- Yeah!

First...

(grunts)

(pop)

You have to wear my sister's shoes. Here.

You want me to wear shoes

off a nasty old witch? I don't think so.

Oh, but there's a powerful magic

connected to them.

And look how sparkly they are.

Mm-mm.

(laughs)

(continues laughing)

Listen, high pockets, here's how

things work in enchanted lands.

Shoes have magical powers.

If you have the shoes, you get the powers.

But if you're going to question every little

detail, the whole thing's gonna fall apart

- and we might as well call it a day, OK?

- (Munchkins) OK?

They're Manolos!

Manolos?

- Why didn't you say that?

- (chattering)

- Check the label.

- Yeah, they're good.

- I'll help you, OK.

- (all) Ooh!

Those are unbelievable, OK?

Wow! They fit perfectly! If the power

of these magic shoes is supposed

to make you feel confident and sexy,

then mission accomplished.

So, take me to meet your wizard.

To get to the wizard, just follow

this road of yellow brick to Emerald City.

It's in the exact center of our country.

Wait, I gotta walk

to the center of your country?

There's not, like,

a bus or something I can take?

- You wanna be a star or not?

- OK, OK, sorry.

Well, let's go.

- Oh, hold up there, Giant Girl.

- The name's Dorothy.

Well, Dorothy, we Munchkins

kinda owe ya for saving us and all.

You ever need a favor,

you just give us a holler, like so...

(blows pitch pipe)

Calling all Munchkins

Let's do lunchkins

- One for all

- And all for one

Calling all Munchkins

Munchkins, Munchkins, Munchkins

Take our call

You sing that

and we'll come a-scampering.

Uh, yeah, we'll be sure to do this, OK.

Let's go, Dorothy.

One more thing. (giggles) I don't know
