Dorothy and friends advance into Oz's palace, only to be confronted by a large head suspended over a throne that roars "I am Oz, the Great and Powerful, who are you?" Scared, Dorothy replies "I am Dorothy, the small and meek. We've come to ask..."

"Silence!" roars the head, "The great and powerful Oz knows why you have come.

Step forward, Tin Man. You dare to come to me for a heart, do you, you clinking, clanking, clattering collection of collaginous junk!" Oz proceeds to bellow at the Scarecrow: "You billowing bale of bovine fodder."

Dorothy scolds Oz for frightening Cowardly Lion. "Silence, whippersnapper," Oz roars. Oz then declares he will grant their requests but they must perform a task: they must go to the Witch's Castle and bring back her broomstick.
