The Guardian of the Gate

3 A tiny band of travelers walks the winding yellow brick road through bright green meadows, green farmhouses and fences at their side, toward a faint green glow on the horizon.

6 The travellers stroll the yellow brick road past green fences and green farmhouses while emerald-clad farm folk peer from their doors, curious but too wary of the great Lion to come near.

9 The travelers step into the green farmhouse, where the injured farmer, the busy woman and two wide-eyed children stare at so odd a company.

12 A tender close-up of Dorothy in the green farmhouse, eyes lowered as she admits she does not know where Kansas is, yet is sure it exists.

15 The travelers reach the end of the yellow brick road, where the vast bright green wall of the Emerald City spans the horizon under a soft green glow.

18 The four travelers pause on the yellow brick road as the emerald-studded gate swings slowly open, revealing a high arched room glittering with countless emeralds.

21 The travelers step into the glittering emerald gate room and meet the small green Guardian of the Gates, who stands beside his big green box.

24 At the emerald gate, the Guardian leans in to turn the little key behind Dorothy's head, locking the green spectacles on.

27 In the arched emerald gate room, the whole party stands in a row wearing locked green spectacles, the big Lion and tiny Toto equally docile, while the little green Guardian checks his work with the key at his chest.

30 The little green Guardian, in his own spectacles, leads the girl, her dog and her three companions through the opened inner gate into the green glow of the Emerald City.
