The Scene Reopens At A Train Station.
Conductor:All aboard!
Galinda:Remember, eye contact. And don't forget to tell him how wonderful he is, Wizards love that! And be yourself... well... within reason.
Boq Wheels Nessarose Onstage.
Nessarose:Elphaba, I'm so proud of you and I know father would be too. We're all proud, aren't we?
Elphaba:You'll be alright, won't you?
Galinda:She'll be fine! Biq will take care of her, right?
Boq:...It's Boq... I... I can't do this anymore.
He Exits.
Nessarose:Boq...
Galinda:Nessa, maybe he's just not the right one... for you.
Nessarose:No, it's me that's not right. Elphaba, just go, I'll be fine.
She Wheels Herself Offstage.
Elphaba:Nessa, wait!
Galinda:Let her go. She'll have to manage without you. We all will.
Elphaba:Please, you'll barely even notice I'm gone. Besides, you have Fiyero. Where is he, anyway? Not that I expected him to say goodbye to me. We barely know each other.
Galinda:I don't know him either. He's distant, and moodified, and he's been thinking, which really worrries me. I never knew how much he card about that old goat.
Fiyero Enters.
Galinda:Oh, there he is! Fiyero, over here dearest!
Fiyero:He Hands Elphaba Flowers.Elphaba, I'm happy for you.
Galinda:Yes, we are both so happy...
Fiyero:Uh, listen, I've been thinking...
Elphaba:Yes, I've heard.
Fiyero:About that Lion cub and... everything. I think about that day a lot.
Elphaba:Really? So doI.
Galinda:Me too! Poor Doctor Dillamond. It makes one want to... uh... take a stand. So I've been thinking of... uh... changing my name.
Fiyero:Your name?
Galinda:Well, yes! Since Doctor Dillamond had his own way of pronouncing my name, in solidarity and to express my outrage, I will henceforward be known no longer as Galinda, but as simply, Glinda.
Fiyero:Oh well, that's very admirable of you... Glinda.To Elphaba.Elphaba, good luck.
He Runs Off.
Glinda:There, see?
Elphaba:Galinda...
Glinda:It's Glinda now. Stupid idea, I don't even know what made me say it.
Elphaba:It doesn't matter what your name is, everyone loves you!
Glinda:I don't care! I want him. I don't even think he's perfect anymore and I still want him. This must be what other people feel like. How do they bear it?They embrace.
