Ext. Central Park-Noon

ELPHABA

Ok, everyone is waiting back at Kiamo Ko. Time to fill in these clueless girls on what's going on.

(they vanish and reappear in Kiamo Ko)

Int. Kiamo Ko Castle-Noon

IDINA

Where did they just come from?

KRISTIN

Why are we here! Will someone please tell me what the heck is going on?

IDINA

Calm down, Kristin.

KRISTIN

Calm down? Seriously. CALM DOWN!? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CALM DOWN WHEN I JUST VANISHED FROM MY COZY COUCH BINGE WATCHING MY FAVORITE NETFLIX SHOWS AND REAPPEARED IN A STONE CASTLE IN THE MIDDLE OF WHO KNOWS WHERE!?

IDINA

Look, this is how you get answers.

(approaches ELPHABA)

Hello, I'm Idina. Could you tell us why we're here?

ELPHABA

I'm Elphaba. You're all here because we need your help.

KRISTIN

How are we supposed to help you?

ELPHABA

Oz is in danger. A woman named Madame Morrible is trying to take over the world. God, that sounded chiche. Anyway, I did some research about your world and I found this thing called Wicked. I guess it's the story of my life, but with singing. I really don't know why anyone would want to hear my story since I'm supposed to be so evil, or how you're lot even know so much about me. Was it the flipping wizard? I bet he told everyone in your world all about me! But that's not the point! The point is that I figured you all would be able to help us.

KRISTIN

Wait, did you say Oz? We're in Oz?

ELPHABA

Uh, yes.

KRISTIN

(takes a second to register it then freaks out)

OH MY FLIPPING GOD WE'RE IN OZ!!!

(takes a deep breath)

Sorry, I had to get that out.

ELPHABA

Oooooohkayyyyyyyy.....

GLINDA

How about we introduce ourselves?

ELPHABA

No need, I already know everybody. This is Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth. I already introduced myself, and this is Glinda and Fiyero.

(pulls out Grimmerie)

This is the Grimmerie. I'm sure you know all about it and what it does. What we're doing is seeing which of you have magic. I already know that Kristin is out, but there's a chance for Idina. Just read this spell out loud.

IDINA

Ok, slow down. Magic? What would make you think I'd have magic?

ELPHABA

Don't question me. Just try.

IDINA

Fine.

(slowly)

Eaque militia est ego autem hic scopus animi levitate.

(the book slowly rises off the ground)

Oh my god.

ELPHABA

I knew it! I knew it would be you!

KRISTIN

(thrilled)

Shut up! You're magic, Idina!

ELPHABA

Well, I guess it's time to start your training.
