What is the conclusion in the Wizard of Oz?
Dorothy is an orphaned 12-year old girl who lives in a farmhouse in Kansas in the year 1900 with her Uncle Henry, Aunt Em, and little dog Toto. One day the farmhouse, with Dorothy inside, is caught up in a cyclone and deposited in a field in the Land of the Munchkins in the Land of Oz. The falling house kills the ruler of the Munchkins, the Wicked Witch of the East. The Good Witch of the North comes with the Munchkins to greet Dorothy and gives Dorothy the Silver Shoes that the Wicked Witch of the East had been wearing when she was killed. In order to return to Kansas, the Good Witch of the North tells Dorothy that she will have to go to the "Emerald City" or "City of Emeralds" and ask the Wizard of Oz to help her. On her way down the road paved with yellow brick, Dorothy frees the Scarecrow from the pole he is hanging on, restores the movements of the rusted Tin Woodman with an oil can, and encourages them and the Cowardly Lion to journey with her and Toto to the Emerald City. The Scarecrow wants to get a brain, the Tin Woodman a heart, and the Cowardly Lion, courage. All are convinced by Dorothy that the Wizard can help them too. Together, they overcome obstacles on the way including narrow pieces of the yellow brick road, Kalidahs, a river, and the Deadly Poppies. When the travelers arrive at the Emerald City, they are asked to use green spectacles by the Guardian of the Gates. When each traveler meets with the Wizard, he appears each time as someone or something different. To Dorothy, the Wizard is a giant head; the Scarecrow sees a beautiful woman; the Tin Woodman sees a ravenous beast; the Cowardly Lion sees a ball of fire. The Wizard agrees to help each of them, but one of them must kill the Wicked Witch of the West who rules over the Winkie Country. As the friends travel across the Winkie Country, the Wicked Witch sends wolves, crows, bees, and then her Winkie soldiers to attack them but they manage to get past them all. Then, using the power of the Golden Cap, the Witch summons the Winged Monkeys to capture all of the travelers. When the Wicked Witch gains one of Dorothy's silver shoes by trickery, Dorothy in anger grabs a bucket of water and throws it on the Wicked Witch, who begins to melt. The Winkies rejoice at being freed of the witch's tyranny, and they help to reassemble the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman. The Winkies love the Tin Woodman and they ask him to become their ruler, which he agrees to do after helping Dorothy return to Kansas. Dorothy uses the Golden Cap to summon the Winged Monkeys to carry her and her companions back to the Emerald City, and the King tells how they were bound by an enchantment to the cap by Gayelette. When Dorothy and her friends meet the Wizard of Oz again, he tries to put them off. Toto accidentally tips over a screen in a corner of the throne room, revealing an old man who had journeyed to Oz from Omaha long ago in a hot air balloon. The Wizard provides the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion with a head full of bran, pins, and needles ("a lot of bran-new brains"), a silk heart stuffed with sawdust, and a potion of "courage", respectively. Because of their faith in the Wizard's power, these otherwise useless items provide a focus for their desires. In order to help Dorothy and Toto get home, the Wizard realizes that he will have to take them home with him in a new balloon, which he and Dorothy fashion from green silk. Revealing himself to the people of the Emerald City one last time, the Wizard appoints the Scarecrow, by virtue of his brains, to rule in his stead. Dorothy chases Toto after he runs after a kitten in the crowd, and before she can make it back to the balloon, the ropes break, leaving the Wizard to rise and float away alone. Dorothy turns to the Winged Monkeys to carry her and Toto home, but they cannot cross the desert surrounding Oz. The Soldier with the Green Whiskers advises that Glinda, the Good Witch of the South (changed to the "North" in the 1939 film), may be able to send Dorothy and Toto home. They, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion journey to Glinda's palace in the Quadling Country. Together they escape the Fighting Trees, dodge the Hammer-Heads, and tread carefully through the China Country. The Cowardly Lion kills a giant spider, who is terrorizing the animals in a forest, and he agrees to return there to rule them after Dorothy returns to Kansas-the biggest of the tigers ruling in his stead as before. Dorothy uses her third wish to fly over the Hammer-Heads' mountain. At the Glinda's palace, the travelers are greeted warmly, and it is revealed by Glinda that Dorothy had the power to go home all along. The Silver Shoes she wears can take her anywhere she wishes to go. She tearfully embraces her friends, all of whom will be returned, through Glinda's use of the Golden Cap, to their respective sovereignties: the Scarecrow to the Emerald City, the Tin Woodman to the Winkie Country, and the Cowardly Lion to the forest. Then she will give the Cap to the king of the Winged Monkeys, so they will never be under its spell again. Dorothy and Toto return to Kansas and a joyful family reunion. The Silver Shoes are lost during Dorothy's flight and never seen again.

The lyrics express the joy of the Munchkins after the defeat of the Wicked Witch of the West.

How do the people who are allergic to water take a shower?
The only person who was allergic to water was the Wicked Witch of the West in the land of Oz. She dissolved when Dorothy threw a bucket of water on her. No one else has this bizarre allegy. We can still ask how the Wicked Witch of the West took showers, but that particular detail was not discussed in Oz novels. Presumably, she did not shower. Possibly she took sponge baths. Actually, there are supposedly only 30 people in the world who have this bizzare allergy, it's insane, and i wanted to know as well. I saw this on the Tyra Show and she cant even touch her son because of the moisture in his skin. So, before you answer something, get a litte educated and not give an answer about the Wicked Witch of the West.
What is a wicked witch?
The Wicked Witch of the East is killed by Dorothy's house falling on top of her. So readers of the book, and viewers of the 1939 film version of The Wizard of Oz, don't get to know her. But her former subjects in the Blue Munchkin Country of the East are delighted to be free from what they describe generally, without specifying supportive evidence, as her cruel, wicked rule. So perhaps the best way to start is by looking first at the Wizard, in the original book by author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 5, 1919]. For he is both good, and not so good. As Dorothy Gale says, he's a humbug. The Wizard's good side shares the successes of his country with his people. For Dorothy finds Emerald City residents happy, prosperous, and supportive of their Supreme Ruler. But his bad side doesn't share the decisionmaking with his people. He decides what the problems are to be solved, and doesn't what to hear what his people see as personal and communal problems. For he discourages them from having audiences, by making them wait, not letting them see what he looks like, not mingling, staying in his Palace all the time, and subjecting petitioners to intimidating sound and light shows in his Throne Room. He puts a price tag on his services. And if what he demands of Dorothy and her four friends is any indication, that price is distastefully high. For he tells them to kill the Wicked Witch of the West. He's inconsiderate and untrustworthy. Mission accomplished, and with the Witch's broom stick as proof in the 1939 film version, the Wizard says to come back the next day. Undoubtedly, with as many audiences as possible, that's the beginning of a whole series of next days until petitioners give up and leave. And he excuses what he does. He pretends to give to the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion what they already have. Once the three friends leave, he justifies his fraud by saying how can he be other than a humbug when people ask of him what can't be done? Readers of the book, and viewers of the 1939 film, don't get much of a chance to know the Wicked Witch of the West. But clearly she speaksthreateningly and rudely, and allows no comment, contradiction or defense. In contrast, Glinda the Good Witch speaks kindly, listens to what others have to say, and gives explanations and reasons. In the book, the Witch enslaves bees, crows, subject Winkies, and wolves to do her distasteful bidding. As holder of the Golden Cap, she has the Winged Monkeys attack and separate the five friends. The monkeys carry out her orders more or less, but are happy to leave once her three wish limit is reached. For the Witch doesn't share and is inhospitable. She considers sightseers [albeit with the ulterior motives of Dorothy and her four friends] as trespassers, and gives them no chance at self-defense. In the book, she imprisons the Cowardly Lion in a narrow confinement surrounded by a high fence, and without protection from the elements. She sentences Dorothy to hard work, trips her, and grabs one of her Slippers. And so, based on the original book and film, wicked witches appear to be hardhearted, inhospitable, and self-gratifying in actions; and rude and self-centered in speech. They appear to be cliquey, greedy, and lacking in communication and listening skills. In sum, they're not team members. But this is based on how they appear in The Wizard of Oz. A different interpretation is possible by looking at the reasons behind the actions and motivations of the Wicked Witch of the West, as Elphaba Thropp, particularly in the play version of Wicked.
