But Dorothy's situation is a little more difficult, so the Wizard states that the only way to get her back to Kansas is for him to take her himself.  We learn that the Wizard is from Kansas himself.  He was a balloonist for the '''Miracle Wonderland Carnival Company''', until one day, his balloon instead of returning to the fair, mysteriously floated down into the Emerald City, where he was instantly proclaimed "Oz, the First Wizard Deluxe."  So now he suggests they return together to "the land of E Pluribus Unum"

Now the Wizard, Dorothy and Toto are in the balloon in the town square while he gives a farewell speech to the crowd.  A cat interests Toto and he jumps growling after it, while Dorothy chases him down.  Meanwhile the balloon lifts off and the Wizard doesn't know how to make it land, so off he goes.

Now Glinda appears once again, telling Dorothy, "You've always had the power to go back to Kansas."  If Glijda had told her, she wouldn't have believed it, that she had to learn it for herself.  So the Scarecrow says, "Well what have you learned Dorothy?" And now folks we get some truly bizarre moralizing.  Please pay close attention to this dialogue:<blockquote>"Well, I think that it wasn't enough just to want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em.  And it's that, if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own back yard.  Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with."</blockquote>
