GlindaThat's a good question, one many people find confusifying. Are people born wicked? Or do they have wickedness thrust upon them? Afterall, The Wicked Witch had a childhood. She had a father, who, by the way, had been appointed governor of Munchkinland. And she had a mother, as so many do.

FiyeroWhy is it you're always causing some sort of commotion?
Madame Morrible[broadcast]Citizens of Oz! There is an enemy who must be found and captured. Believe nothing she says. She has stolen our Grimmerie. She is evil, responsible for the mutilation of these poor innocent monkeys! Her green skin is but an outward manifestorium of her twisted nature. This distortion! This repulsion! This wicked witch!
ElphabaI'm not afraid. It's the Wizard who should be afraid of me.

Radio AnnouncerGlinda, exactly how dead is she?
GlindaBecause there has been so much rumor and speculation, let me tell you the whole story. According to the Time Dragon Clock, the melting occurred at the thirteenth hour, the direct result of a bucket of water thrown by a female child. Yes, the Wicked Witch of the West is dead!

Glinda[from trailer]Oh, I saved you some space, by the way.
Elphaba[sees that the space is only big enough to fit a bed]Do you really think this is fair?
Glinda[thinking she's referring to them rooming together]I do not. I was PROMISED a private suite. But thanks for asking.

Madame Morrible[talks to the Shiz students]Which one of you would volunteer to share a room with...
Glinda[runs behind Madame Morrible, tries to step over a bench but ends up falling. Madame Morrible stops speaking as she's interrupted by Galinda's antics]Ow. Ow.
Shiz Students[singing about Elphaba] Dear Galinda, you are just too good! How do you stand it? I don't think I could! She's a terror! She's a tartar! We don't mean to show a bias, but Galinda you're a martyr!
Glinda[belting] Well... these things are sent to try us!

Munchkinland KidGlinda! Is it true you were her friend?
Glinda[is in the bubble, her voice muffled]What? Sorry, one sec.
Glinda[frustrated]It's Glinda now! Stupid. I don't even know what made me say it.
ElphabaIt doesn't matter what your name is, everyone loves you.
GlindaI don't care! I want him. I don't think he's perfect anymore and I still want him. This must be what other people feel like. How do they bear it?

BoqUm, I hope you'll save a dance for me tonight. I'll be right there, waiting... All night.
Glinda[steals a glance at Nessarose, who is alone]That's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?
Glinda[sings, points at Nessarose]See that tragic'lly beautiful girl, the one in the chair? It seems so unfair, we should go on a spree and not she, gee. I know someone would be my hero, if that someone were to go invite her.
Elphaba... green. He was so worried that he made my mother chew milk flowers day and night. Only, the milk flowers made Nessa come too soon, and... and her little legs, they...
Elphaba[during "The Wizard and I"]And one day, he'll say to me, Elphaba, a girl who is so superior. Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside have a matching exterior? And since folks here to an absurd degree, seem fixated on your verdigris, would it be alright by you if I de-greenify you?
ElphabaAnd though, of course, that's not important to me, Alright, why not? I'll reply. Oh, what a pair we'll be, the Wizard and I.

Glinda[claps her hands to get everyone's attention]Excuse me! Everyone, please! I have an announcement!
Glinda[tosses her hair again]Yes. Since Dr. Dillamond used to have his own goat-like way of pronouncifying my name, in solidarity and in order to express my outrage, I will henceforth be known no longer as... Gah-linda, but simply...
Glinda[singing]It's really, uh, sharp, don't you think? You know, black, is this year's pink. You deserve each other, this hat and you, you're both so... Smart. You deserve each other, so here,
Elphaba'Talent', uh... No, something just... Something just takes over me, and... Something I can't control. And when it does, bad things happen.
Madame MorribleIf you can learn to use your powers in the right way, oh... Miss Elphaba...

Glinda[singing]When I see depressing creatures with unprepossessing features, I remind them on their own behalf to think of. Celebrated heads of state or specially great communicators.
[showing off a portrait of a historical figure in a book]
GlindaYou won't even notice I'm gone, you have Fiyero. Um, speaking of Fiyero, where is he? Not that I expected him to come and say goodbye, but... I mean, we barely know each other.
GlindaWell, I barely know him anymore either, he's been different. He's distant and moodified... And he's been thinking, which... really worries me. It all started the day Doctor Dillamond got fired, I mean, who knew he cared so much about that old goat?

Elphaba[singing]Something has changed within me. Something is not the same. I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game. Too late for second-guessing. Too late to go back to sleep. It's time to trust my instincts, close my eyes... and leap. It's time to try defying gravity. I think I'll try defying gravity. And you can't pull me down.
GlindaCan't I make you understand you're having delusions of grandeur?
ElphabaI'm through accepting limits 'cause someone says they're so. Some things I cannot change but till I try, I'll never know. Too long I've been afraid of losing love I guess I've lost. Well, if that's love it comes at much too high a cost.

Elphaba[during 'Popular', Elphaba gets up and leaves]This is never gonna work.
NessaroseDon't. Don't you dare say another word against her. I'm about to have the happiest night of my life, thanks... to Galinda.
Nessarose[singing]Finally for this one night, I'm about to have a fun night with this Munchkin boy Galinda found for me. And I only wish there were something I could do for her to repay her. Elphaba, see? We deserve each other, and Galinda helped it come true. We deserve each other, me and Boq.
Nessarose[spoken]Please, Elphaba, try to understand.
Madame Morrible[start singing] Many years I have waited, For a gift like yours to appear. Why, I predict the Wizard might make you his Magic grand vizier.
Madame Morrible[continued singing] My dear, my dear, I'll write at once to the Wizard. Tell him of you in advance, With a talent like yours, dear, there is a definish chance. If you work as you should, You'll be making good.
