As the travelers are watching the castle, three Winkie guards sneak up them, and jump them from behind. At time 1:17 or 1:18 you can distinctly hear one of these guards say, "Put 'em up".  Our intrepid bunch gets the better of the guards and we next see them in the guards' uniforms, which of course are the perfect disguise to get inside the castle.  So they join the guards who are going in, with the Lion bringing up the rear and trying to keep his tail from showing too much.  With Toto leading them, they find the room in which Dorothy is being held.

The Tin Woodsman hacks away at the door with his axe, freeing Dorothy, and the group runs downs the stairs.  But the Witch is too clever for them, causing the door that they need to exit through, to lock.  The Scarecrow noticing that the enormous chandelier is held up by a rope, grabs the Tin Woodsman's arm and swings the axe through the rope, causing the chandelier to drop onto the Winkie guards approaching them.

The water melts the Witch into a puddle (or something) and the guards now salute Dorothy for freeing them.  Now we get some really odd dialogue.  Dorothy says "The broom may we have it?"  And the Winkie guard says, "Please, and take it with you."  (Um... duh? What? You can have it, but only if you leave it here?)

Now our travelers are back in the Wizard's Throne Room, where he tells them to come back tomorrow.  But Toto, investigates a curtained area, and pulling the curtain aside, they find the real '''Great and Powerful Oz''' to be only a regular man, working an elaborate machinery.

Our shocked group tell him he's a humbug and Dorothy says, "You're a very bad man".  But he replies, "Oh no my dear, I'm a very good man, I'm just a very bad wizard."

The Wizard now tells Scarecrow that he doesn't need a brain, what he lacks is a diploma.  So he gives him a "Doctor of Thinkology" diploma.  The Scarecrow then recites what presumably is supposed to be the Pythagorean Theorem but actually states it incorrectly.  But he's happy anyway.

The Wizard now tells the Lion that he doesn't need courage, what he lacks is a medal.  So he gives him a medal called the "Triple Cross" for "meritorious conduct, extraordinary valor, conspicuous bravery against wicked witches..." "You are now a member of the Legion of Courage."
