The guards of the Emerald City, seeing Ellie in silver shoes for the first time, decide that a fairy has come to them, and allow her and her friends to Goodwin. The Great and Terrible wizard appears before them in different guises and announces that he will fulfill all their desires when the friends defeat the evil sorceress Bastinda, who sends Flying Monkeys to the Emerald City, who cover the flowers with sand.
