Sophia and her friends took the broomstick and returned to the Tanzanite City to see the Wizard.

"I see you've returned already," the Wizard smiled.

"Yes, sir, we've done what you asked," Sophia declared, bringing the broomstick forward. "We'd brought you the broomstick of the Wicked Witch of the West. We melted her."

"Ah, you liquidated her, didn't you?" the Wizard asked.

"Yes, we did," Sophia smiled.

But just then, the flat screen TV started to break up. The screen was all scratchy, and then it went black.

"Oh, what is wrong with this thing?" a nearby man growled.

A man came behind a curtain, having tripped on a cable. Sophia and her friends were shocked to see this. The man saw that the quartet had seen him already.

"Who are you?" Sophia gasped.

"Me? Well, I am the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz," the man smiled nervously.

Sophia and her friends were disappointed. The Wizard could tell that the quartet was disappointed, so he made a cobalt blue acoustic guitar appear in his hands. Sophia and her friends were amazed when the Wizard started playing the guitar and singing.

Well, open up your mind and see like me

Open up your plans, and dream you're free

Look into your heart, and you'll find love, love, love, love

Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing

We're just one big family

It's our unforsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait

I'm sure

There's no need to complicate

Our time is short

This is our fate

I'm yours

Sophia and her friends were impressed that the Wizard was a great singer, and they just had to join in.

SOPHIA: So I was what you've been saying is there ain't no better reason...

COWARDLY LION: ...to rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons

TIN MAN: It's what we aim to do

ALL: Our friends are our virtue

And I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait

I'm yours

SCARECROW: So all we're saying is just kick the vanity

Life is made for loving with your friends and family

ALL: So I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait

I'm sure

There's no need to complicate

Our time is short

This is our fate

I'm yours

WIZARD: Open up your mind and see like me

Open up your plans and dream you're free

Look into your heart, and you'll find that the sky is yours

Sophia, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion were impressed.

"You are the Wizard of Oz!" Sophia gasped.

"Not quite, but I can help," the Wizard told her. "Scarecrow, you have plenty of brains. You were smart enough to cut that tree branch and drop it on the Winkie Guards, so you could help save Sophia."

Scarecrow was amazed. "I guess I did have some smarts," he smiled.

"You know it," the Wizard smiled. He turned to the Cowardly Lion and told him, "And you think you're a fraidy cat. If that were true, then you wouldn't have had the courage to help protect Sophia."

Cowardly Lion realized that he was courageous enough to protect Sophia. "Well, so much for that shy guy—I'm all about courage now," he smiled proudly.

Suddenly, Tin Man just slowed down and stopped.

"There he goes again," Sophia frowned. She was about to wind him up again when the Wizard stopped her.

"As for Tin Man, he had the heart to help protect you, dear, but if he needs a heart for moving around, I can help with that," the Wizard declared.

The Wizard looked in a box and pulled out a battery that was shaped like a heart. He opened Tin Man's chest and put the heart inside. That's when Tin Man got up.

"Oh, thank you, Mighty Sir!" Tin Man beamed.

The Wizard was happy to have helped the trio, and now he needed to help Sophia.

"Well, can you help me get home?" Sophia asked.

"My goodness, child—you've forced me into a cataclysmic decision!" the Wizard beamed. "The only way to get you home to Nebraska is for me to take you there myself!"

"Really?" Sophia gaped. "But are you willing to do such a thing?"

"Child, you cut me to the quick," the Wizard chuckled. "I'm an old Nebraska man myself, born and bred into the western wilderness, premiere balloonist. A long time ago, I was at a hot-air balloon festival in Albuquerque, New Mexico, when an unfortunate phenomenon occurred: the balloon failed to return to the fair."

"Really?" Sophia gaped. "Weren't you frightened?"

"Frightened? Sweetie, you're speaking with a man who has laughed at the face of death, sneered at doom, and chuckled at catastrophe," the Wizard declared. "I was petrified. Then the balloon landed here in Tanzanite City, and the residents made me the Wizard of Oz."

"Wow," Sophia smiled.

"But before I find that balloon, I must do a little something," the Wizard declared. "If you're getting married tomorrow, the bride needs a bouquet to carry with her."

The Wizard looked in a closet and pulled out a pink rose bouquet.

"Oh, thank you," Sophia smiled.

"You're welcome, my dear," the Wizard smiled. "Now let's find that balloon, so we can go back to Nebraska."
