<P> After a long chase, the Flying Monkeys succeed in capturing their targets and bring them back to Evillene . Vengeful for Dorothy having killed her sister, she dismembers the Scarecrow, flattens the Tin Man, and tortures the Lion in hopes of making Dorothy give her the silver shoes . When she threatens to throw Toto into a fiery cauldron, Dorothy nearly gives in until the Scarecrow hints to her to activate a fire sprinkler switch, which she does . The sprinklers put out the fire but also melt Evillene . She is flushed down into her throne, the lid of which slams shut like a toilet . With Evillene finally gone, her spells lose their power: the Winkies are freed from their permanent costumes (revealing attractive humans underneath) and their sweatshop tools disappear . They rejoice in dance and praise Dorothy as their emancipator . The Flying Monkeys give her and her friends a triumphant ride back to the Emerald City . </P> <P> Upon arriving, the quartet takes a back door into the Wizard's quarters and discovers that he is a "phony". The "great and powerful Oz" is actually Herman Smith, a failed politician from Atlantic City, New Jersey, who was transported to Oz when a balloon he was flying to promote his campaign to become the city dogcatcher was lost in a storm . The Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion are distraught that they will never receive their respective brain, heart, and courage, but Dorothy makes them realize that they already have had these things all along . Just as it seems as if she will never be able to get home, Glinda, the Good Witch of the South, appears and implores her to find her way home by searching within and using the magic of the silver slippers by clicking the heels together three times . After thanking Glinda and saying goodbye to her friends, she takes clicks her heels together three times . She is then back near home with Toto in her arms and walks into the apartment . </P> <Ul> <Li> Diana Ross as Dorothy </Li> <Li> Michael Jackson as Scarecrow </Li> <Li> Nipsey Russell as Tin Man </Li> <Li> Ted Ross as Cowardly Lion </Li> <Li> Richard Pryor as Herman Smith / The Wiz </Li> <Li> Lena Horne as Glinda the Good Witch of the South </Li> <Li> Mabel King as Evillene / The Wicked Witch of the West </Li> <Li> Thelma Carpenter as Freida Winzer / Miss One </Li> <Li> Theresa Merritt as Shelby Gale / Aunt Em </Li> <Li> Stanley Greene as Uncle Henry </Li> <Li> Clinton Jackson as Green Footman #1 </Li> <Li> Johnny Brown as Aunt Em's Party </Li> </Ul> <Li> Diana Ross as Dorothy </Li>
