The Gatekeeper:
Who rang that bell?
Dorothy, The Scarecrow, The Cowardly Lion, The Tin Man:
[all four together]
We did!
The Gatekeeper:
Can't you read?
The Scarecrow:
Read what?
The Gatekeeper:
The notice!
Dorothy, The Scarecrow, The Cowardly Lion, The Tin Man:
What notice?
The Gatekeeper:
It's on the door - as plain as the nose on my face! It... oh...
[does a tsking, expression, goes inside door for a moment. He hangs the notice and goes back inside]
Dorothy, The Scarecrow, The Cowardly Lion, The Tin Man:
[Reading notice, all together]
Bell out of order, please knock.
[Dorothy knocks the door and he opens the window]
The Gatekeeper:
Well, that's more like it! Now, state your business!
Dorothy, The Scarecrow, The Cowardly Lion, The Tin Man:
[all together]
We want to see the Wizard!
The Gatekeeper:
[gasps]
The Wizard? But, nobody can see the Great Oz! Nobody's ever seen the Great Oz! Even, I've never seen him!
Dorothy:
Well, then how do you know there is one?
The Gatekeeper:
Because, he... I... Oh, you're wasting my time.
[starts to close the window]
Dorothy:
Oh, please. Please, sir. I've got to see the Wizard. The Good Witch of the North sent me.
The Gatekeeper:
Prove it.
The Scarecrow:
She's wearing the ruby slippers, she gave her.
The Gatekeeper:
Oh, so she is! Well, bust my buttons! Why didn't you say that in the first place? That's a horse of a different color! Come on in!
