Trivia

 * This film is very similiar to the 1939 movie, The Wizard of Oz.
 * This is the second Bubble Guppies feature-length film.
 * This is the fourth time Gil cries 4 times. These parts are similiar when Dorothy was crying about Miss Gulch taking Toto away, when the Guard tells her and her friends that the Wizard said "Go away!", when she was locked up in the Witch's castle and when she said goodbye to her friends.
 * This is the first time Deema has played a villain and she sounds like it.
 * This is the second time Gil gathered up everyone in a sketch and everyone said "It's time for Bubble Guppies!" instead of either Molly or Gil.

 * Episode Title comes up*

Mr. Grouper: The Wizard of the Magical Kingdom!

Gil: *stoops down to Bubble Puppy* She isn't coming yet, Bubble Puppy. Did she hurt you? She tried to, didn't she? Come on - we'll go tell Mr. Grouper and the others. Come on, Bubble Puppy. *swims down ocean*

Bubble Puppy: *follows Gil*

School -

Molly, Goby, Deema, Oona and Nonny: Good morning, Mr. Grouper!

Mr. Grouper: Well, good morning, everyone!

Molly, Goby, Deema, Oona and Nonny: *swim away*

Gil: *swims along ocean*

Bubble Puppy: *follows Gil*

Gil: *swims forward through door and swims forward to Deema and Mr. Grouper* Deema! Deema!

Deema and Mr. Grouper: *working with Clam in tank*

Gil: *swims in* Deema!

Deema: 57, 58.

Gil: Just listen to what Olivia did to Bubble Puppy! She -

Deema: Gil, please! We're trying to count: 58 -

Gil: Oh, but Deema, she hit him -

Mr. Grouper: Don't bother us now, Gil. You see, this old tank's gone bad and we're likely to lose Clam.

Gil: *picks up Clam* Oh - oh, the poor little thing.

Gil and Deema: *swim forwards*

Deema: *puts Clam on table*

Molly: Oh, but Deema, Olivia hit Bubble Puppy right over the back with a rake just because she says he gets in her garden and chases her nasty old cat every day!

Deema: 70 - Gil, please!

Gil and Deema: *swim to tank*

Gil: Oh, but he doesn't do it every day - just once or twice a week. And he can't catch her old cat, anyway! And now she says he's going to get the -

Deema: Gil! We're busy!

Mr. Grouper: *looks at Gil*

Gil: Oh - all right. *swims away*

Molly, Goby and Nonny: *working on wagon*

Goby and Nonny: *lowering bed of wagon into place*

Nonny: How's she coming?

Molly: Take it easy! *on ground, gets finger caught under wagon bed* Ow! You got my finger!

Goby and Nonny: *holding wagon bed*

Nonny: Why don't you get your finger out of the way!

Goby and Nonny: *put wagon bed in place*

Goby: There you are.

Molly: Right on my finger!

Nonny: *sits on ground by wagon* It's a lucky thing it wasn't your head.

Gil: *swims forwards to Nonny* Nonny, what am I going to do about Olivia? Just because Bubble Puppy chases her old cat -

Nonny: Listen my friend, I got Clam to get in. *swims away*

Goby: *swims away*

Molly and Gil: *swim over by wagon*

Molly: Now lookit, Gil, you ain't using your head about Olivia. You'd think you didn't have any brains at all.

Gil: I have so got brains!

Molly: Well, why don't you use them? When you come to school or come home, don't go by Deema and Olivia's place - then Bubble Puppy won't get in her garden and you won't get in no trouble. See?

Gil: Oh, Molly, you just won't listen, that's all.

Molly: Well, your head ain't made of straw, you know.

Gil: *swims away*

Molly: *hits her finger with hammer and whirls around*

Nonny: *puts Clam into another tank* Soo-ee! Get in there before I make a dime bank out of you!

Gil: *swims in and swims along railing of tank*

Nonny: *pours food into tank* Listen pal, are you going to let that Old Olivia heifer try and buffalo you? She ain't nothing to be afraid of. Have a little courage, that's all.

Gil: *swimming along railing between tank* I'm not afraid of her.

Nonny: *picks up another bucket of food and pours it into tank* Then the next time she squawks, swim right up to her and spit in her eye. That's what I'd do.

Gil: *loses balance and falls into tank* Uh-oh! Oh! Oh, Nonny! Nonny! Nonny, get me out of here! Help! Oh!

Nonny: *jumps into tank, takes Gil's tail out of wire then picks him up, carries Gil out of tank, puts him down with Molly and Goby, jumps out of tank, sits down and wipes brow*

Goby: Are you all right, Gil?

Gil: Yes, I'm all right. Oh. I fell in and and Nonny -

Molly, Gil and Goby: *all look at Nonny and laugh*

Gil: Why, Nonny, you - you're just as scared as I am!

Molly: What's the matter, gonna let a little old clam make a coward out of you?

Goby: Look at you, Nonny - you're just as white -

Oona: *swims with plate of crullers* Here, here, what's all this jabber-wapping when there's work to be done? I know two shiftless boys and one shiftless girl that'll be out of some work before they know it!

Goby: Well, Gil was swimming along the -

Oona: I saw you tinkering with that contraption, Goby. Now, you and Molly get back to that wagon!

Goby: All right, Oona. But some day they're going to erect a statue to me in this town, and -

Oona: Well, don't start posing for it now. Here, here - can't work on an empty stomach. Have some crullers.

Molly and Goby: *each take cruller*

Molly: Gosh, Oona.

Oona: Just fried.

Goby: Thanks.

Molly: Swell.

Molly and Goby: *swim away*

Oona: *swims forward to Gil and Nonny*

Nonny: You see, Gil topped into the - the -

Oona: It's no place for Gil about a clam tank! Now you go feed Clam before he worries himself into anaemia!

Nonny: Yes, Ma'am.

Gil and Oona: *swim along*

Gil: *takes cruller* Oona, really - do you know what Olivia said she was going to do to Bubble Puppy? She said she was going to -

Oona: Now, Gil, my friend, stop imagining things. You always get yourself into a fret over nothing.

Gil: Well -

Oona: Now, you just help us out today and find yourself a place where you won't get into any trouble. *swims away*

Gil: Some place where there isn't any trouble. Do you suppose there is such a place, Bubble Puppy?*tosses Bubble Puppy a piece of the cruller*

Bubble Puppy: *eats the cruller*

Gil: *swims forward* There must be. Not a place you can get to by a boat or a train. It's far, far away - behind the moon - beyond the rain - *sings* Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high. There's a land that I heard of. Once in a lullaby. Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue. And the dreams that you dare to dream. Really do come true. Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far. Behind me. Where troubles melt like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops. That's where you'll find me. Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow, why then - oh, why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why, oh, why can't I? *hugs Bubble Puppy*

Olivia: *swims along ocean*

School (Outside) -

Olivia: *swims forward to front of school and rings doorbell*

Mr. Grouper: *swims forwards and presses button, the door opens*

Olivia: Mr. Grouper.

Mr. Grouper: Hi, Olivia.

Olivia: I want to see you, my sister and her friends right away, about Gil.

Mr. Grouper: Gil? Well, what has Gil done?

Olivia: What's he done? I'm all but lame from the bite on my tail!

Mr. Grouper: You mean he bit you?

Olivia: No, his puppy!

Mr. Grouper: Oh, he bit his puppy, eh? *let's go off the button, it hits Olivia*

Olivia: No! *swims inside*

Mr. Grouper: *puts paintbrush down and follows Olivia*

Classroom -


 * Deema, Oona and Olivia are sitting on the chairs*

Gil: *swims with Bubble Puppy*

Olivia: That puppy's a menace to the community. I'm taking him to the Sheriff and make sure he's destroyed.

Gil: Destroyed? Bubble Puppy? Oh, you can't! You mustn't! *swims to Mr. Grouper* Girls! Mr. Grouper, you won't let her, will you?

Mr. Grouper: Of course, we won't. Will we, Deema?

Gil: *swims to Deema, Oona and Olivia* Oh, please, Deema? Bubble Puppy didn't mean to. He didn't know he was doing anything wrong. I'm the one that ought to be punished. I let him go in your house. You can tell me not to come to your house ever again -

Olivia: If you don't hand over that puppy, I'll bring a damage suit that'll take your whole school! There's a law protecting guppies against puppies that bite!

Deema: How would it be if he keeps him tied up? He's really gentle - with gentle guppies, that is.

Olivia: Well, that's for the Sheriff to decide. Here's his order allowing me to take him. Unless you want to go against the law. *shows order to Deema and Oona*

Mr. Grouper: *swims in and looks at the order* Uh - yes -

Oona: Now, we can't go against the law, Gil. I'm afraid poor Bubble Puppy will have to go.

Olivia: Now you're seeing reason.

Gil: No -

Olivia: *picks up purple backpack and rises* Here's what I'm taking him in - so he can't attack me again.

Gil: No, no, no! I won't let you take him! You go away! Ooooh, I'll bite you myself!

Deema and Oona: Gil!

Gil: Oh, you wicked old witch! Mr. Grouper, girls, don't let 'em take Bubble Puppy! Don't let her take him - please!

Olivia: *tries to take Bubble Puppy away from Gil* I've got an order! Let me have him!

Gil: Stop her!

Deema: Put him in the backpack, Mr. Grouper.

Olivia: The idea!

Mr. Grouper: *takes Bubble Puppy and puts him into backpack*

Gil: Don't, Mr. Grouper. Oh, Bubble Puppy! *starts crying, looks at Deema and Oona, then at Mr. Grouper, starts out and swims out of the classroom*

Deema: *rises, looks after Gil then turns to Oona, Olivia and Mr. Grouper* Olivia Wahler, just because you own half the county doesn't mean you have the power to run the rest of us! For four years I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you! And now - well, being a Christian girl, I can't say it! *swims away*

Mr. Grouper: *sits in chair and grins*

Gil: *laughing and hugs Bubble Puppy* Bubble Puppy, dear good buddy! Oh, I've got you back! You came back! Oh, I'm so glad! Bubble Puppy. Oh, they'll be coming back for you in a minute. We've got to get away! *takes suitcase and starts packing it* We've got to run away.

Gil: *swims in and reads sign*

Professor Joe: *humming and steps down out of wagon, crosses to fire* Well, well, well! House guests, huh? Ha ha ha ha! And who might you be? No, no, now don't tell me. *sits by fire*

Gil: *swims forward*

Professor Joe: Let's see. You're travelling in disguise. No, that's not right. You're - you're going on a visit. No, I'm wrong. You're, you're - running away.

Gil: How did you guess?

Professor Joe: Ha ha! Professor Joe never guesses. He knows! Ha ha! Now, why are you running away?

Gil: Why -

Professor Joe: No, no, now don't tell me. They - they don't understand you at preschool. They don't appreciate you. You want to see other lands, big cities, big mountains, big oceans. Ha ha!

Gil: Why, it's just like you could read what was inside of me.

Professor Joe: *roasting wiener on stick* Yes.

Bubble Puppy: *swims and bites wiener off stick*

Gil: Oh, Bubble Puppy, that's not polite! We haven't been asked yet.

Professor Joe: *laughs and puts another wiener on stick* Ha, ha, ha! He's perfectly welcome! Ha ha! As one puppy to another, huh? Ha ha ha! Here now, let's see. Where were we?

Gil: Oh please, Professor, why can't we go with you and see all the Crowned Heads of Europe?

Professor Joe: *puts stick down* Do you know any? Oh, you mean the thing. Yes. Well, I - I never do anything without consulting my crystal first. *rises and he and Gil cross to wagon* Let's go inside here. We'll - just come along. I'll show you.

Wagon -


 * Professor Joe and Gil swim in*

Professor Joe: *moves chair up for Gil then lights candles, sits down, and puts on turban* That's right. Here, sit right down here. That's it. Ha ha! This - this is the same genuine, magic, authentic crystal used by the priests of Isis and Osiris in the dys of the Pharaohs of Egypt, in which Cleopatra first saw the approach of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony - and - and so on and so on. Now, you - you'd better close your eyes, my child, for a moment - in order to be better in tune with the infinite.

Gil: *closes eyes*

Professor Joe: *takes Gil's backpack, looks through it, takes out a photograph* We - we can't do these things without reaching out into the ....infinite. Yes. *looks at photograph, the photograph is of Gil, Goby, Nonny, Molly, Deema and Oona, puts photograph on chair* That's - that's right. Now you can open them.

Gil: *opens eyes*

Professor Joe: *looks into crystal* We'll gaze into the crystal. Ah, what's this I see? A big orange building with some windows - and a playground with a slide, swings and a - a climbing frame.

Gil: That's our school!

Professor Joe: Oh, yes. *looks into crystal then looks down at photograph* There's - there's - there's a boy. *puts photograph away again* He's got dark blue hair, dark brown skin and brown eyes. His tail has wavy blue and purple stripes.

Gil: That's Goby.

Professor Joe: There's another boy. He's got peach skin, orange hair and green eyes. He's wearing blue scuba goggles known to be as glasses, and his tail is light green with dark green stripes.

Gil: That's Nonny.

Professor Joe: There's a girl. She's got light brown skin, bright pink hair, and brown eyes. She has a blue tail with swirling light and dark blue patterns on it. Her bikini top matches her tail.

Gil: That's Molly.

Professor Joe: There's another girl. She's got peach skin and blue eyes. She's got huge, poofy, yellow 70's hair and she's wearing two little orange earrings. Her tail is orange with yellow polka dots, and her bikini top is also orange with yellow polka dots.

Gil: That's Deema.

Professor Joe: And there's another girl. She's got light tan skin and brown eyes. She's got purple hair and is worn in two low pigtails, she's wearing a pink starfish bow in her hair. She's got a purple tail with pink stripes. Her eyes are almond-shaped instead of round.

Gil: That's Oona.

Professor Joe: Yes. They're - they're all your friends.

Gil: That's right. What are they doing?

Professor Joe: Well, I - I can't see. Why, they're crying.

Gil: Oh.

Professor Joe: Someone has hurt them. Someone has just about broken their heart.

Gil: Me?

Professor Joe: Well, it's - it's someone they love very much; someone they've been very kind to; someone they've taken care of in sickness.

Gil: I had the measles once - and they stayed right by me every minute.

Professor Joe: Uh - huh.

Gil: What are they doing now?

Professor Joe: *looks into crystal* Yes, they're - what's this? Why, they're putting their hands on their heart! They're - they're dropping down on the floor!

Gil: Oh, no! No!

Professor Joe: Well, that's all. The crystal's gone dark.

Gil: *jumps up and picks up his backpack* Oh, you ..... you don't suppose they could really be sick, do you? Oh! Oh, I've got to go back to preschool right away!

Professor Joe: But, what's this? I thought you were going along with me!

Gil: Oh, no! No, I have to get to them right away! Come on, Bubble Puppy! Come on! Come on!

Gil and Bubble Puppy: *both swim up hill in wind blowing leaves around*

Gil: Goodbye, Professor Joe, and thanks a lot!

Professor Joe: *comes out of wagon and swims to horse, wind blowing, looks around and swims out with horse* Better get under cover, Sylvester! There's a storm blowin! - a whopper, to speak in the vernacular of the peasantry! Poor little guy. I hope he gets to preschool all right.

Bubble Puppy: *jumps up near Gil*

Gil: *lies back on floor unconscious* ...

Inside the cyclone -


 * The school spinning up through dust, chicken coop flies through*

Gil: *wakes up and looks around*

Gil and Bubble Puppy: *on the floor*

Gil: *sits up and swims to the window and looks out*


 * A girl that looks like Oona floats through sitting on a rocking chair knitting, a cow floats through mooing*

Bubble Puppy: Arf!! Arf!! *swims away and hides under table*

Gil: *still looking out the window*


 * Various things float through, two boys that look like Goby and Nonny in row boat float in, both tip their hats to Gil*

Gil: *waves to the boys* We must be up inside the cyclone!

Bubble Puppy: *looks out from under table*

Gil: *looking out window, sits on floor* Oh, Olivia!!

Gil and Bubble Puppy: *lying on floor*


 * The school crashes to ground*

Gil: Oh! *looks around, then gets up off the floor, picks up his backpack and swims forward looking around*

Little Fish Land -

Gil: *presses button and door opens to reveal Little Fish Land, swims forward through the door and looks around confused by it all, with Bubble Puppy looks about the Village* Bubble Puppy, I have a feeling we're not in Bubbletucky anymore!

Little Fish: *rise and watch Gil*

Gil: *looks about* We must be over the rainbow!


 * A pink bubble appears and comes closer*

Gil: *looks up and backs slowly*


 * The bubble lands on the ground and it turns into Glinda (Oona) and looks at Gil*

Gil: Now I - I know we're not in Bubbletucky!

Glinda (Oona): *swims to Gil and Bubble Puppy* Are you a good witch, or a bad witch?

Gil: Who, me! I - I'm not a witch at all. I'm Gil Gordon, from Bubbletucky.

Oona: Oh! Well, is that the Witch?

Gil: Who, Bubble Puppy? Bubble Puppy's my puppy.

Oona: Well, I'm a little muddled. The Little Fish called me because a new witch has just dropped a school on the Wicked Witch of the East. And there's the school, and here you are, and that's all that's left of the Wicked Witch of the East.


 * Wicked Witch of the East's feet protruding from under the school*

Oona: *looks to Gil* And so, what the Little Fish want to know is - are you a good witch or a bad witch?

Gil: But I've already told you, I'm not a witch at all. Witches are old and ugly. *hears giggling noise* What was that?

Oona: The Little Fish. They're laughing because I am a witch. I'm Glinda, the Witch of the North.

Gil: *bows* You are! I beg your pardon! But I've never heard of a beautiful witch before.

Oomna: Only bad witches are ugly. The Little Fish are happy because you have freed them from the Wicked Witch of the East.

Gil: Oh. But - if you please, what are Little Fish? *hears giggling noise again*

Glinda: The little fishes who live in this land. It's Little Fish Land, and you are their national hero, my dear. It's all right - you may all come out and thank him.


 * Lots of Little Fish swim from behind flowers*

Oona: *sings* Come out, come out, wherever you are and meet the young man, who fell from a star. He fell from the sky, he fell very far and Bubbletucky, he says, is the name of the star.

Little Fish: *sings* Bubbletucky, he says, is the name of the star.

Oona: *sings* He brings you good news. Or haven't you heard? When he fell out of Bubbletucky. A miracle occurred.

Gil: *sings* It really was no miracle. What happened was just this. The wind began to switch - the school to pitch and suddenly the hinges started to unhitch. Just then the Witch - to satisfy an itch went flying on her broomstick, thumbing for a hitch.

First Little Fish: And oh, what happened then was rich.

Little Fish: *sings* The school began to pitch. The classroom took a slitch. It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch, which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch. The school began to pitch. The classroom took a slitch. It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch, which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch. Who began to twitch and was reduced to just a stitch of what was once the Wicked Witch.

Gil: *steps in a horse carriage facing Little Fish*

Little Fish: *One swims forward from crowd, another follows and speaks*

Little Fish 1: We thank you very sweetly, for doing it so neatly.

Little Fish 2: You've killed her so completely, that we thank you very sweetly.

Gil: *turns to Oona*

Oona: Let the joyous news be spread, The Wicked Old Witch at last is dead!

Little Fish: *singing* Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead. Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed. Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead. She's gone where the goblins go. Below - below - below. Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out. Ding Dong' the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low. Let them know, The Wicked Witch is dead!

Little Fish: And we will glorify your name.

Mayor: You will be a bust.

Barrister: Be a bust. Be a bust.

Little Fish: In the hall of fame. Tra-la-la-la-la-la! Tra-la-la, tra-la-la! Tra-la-la-la-la! La-la! Tra-la-la-la-la-la! Tra-la-la, tra-la-la! Tra-la-la-la-la! La-la! Tra-la-la-la-la-la! Tra-la-la, tra-la-la! Tra-la-la-la-la! La-!


 * An explosion appears*

Little Fish: Eek! *swim off*


 * A wicked witch (Deema) appears*

Gil: I thought you said she was dead.

Oona: That was her sister, the Wicked Witch of the East. This is the Wicked Witch of the West. She's worse than the other one was.

Wicked Witch of the West (Deema): Who killed my sister? Who killed the Witch of the East? Was it you?

Gil: No. No, it was an accident. I didn't mean to kill anybody.

Deema: Well, my little handsome, I can cause accidents too!

Oona: Aren't you forgetting the purple slippers?

Deema: The slippers. Yes! The slippers!


 * Deema swims to the feet. The purple slippers disappear and the feet slipped away and disappeared under the school*

Deema: They're gone! The purple slippers! What have you done with them? Give them back to me or I'll-

Oona: It's too late! There they are, and there they'll stay!


 * Gil looks down and sees the purple slippers on his tail*

Gil: *gasps*

Deema: Give me back my slippers! Only I know how to use them. They're of no use to you. Give them back to me. Give them back!

Oona: Keep tight inside of them. Their magic must be powerful... or she wouldn't want them so badly.

Deema: Stay out of this, Glinda, or I'll fix you as well!

Oona: Oh, rubbish! You have no power here. Begone, before somebody drops a school on you too.

Deema: Very well. I'll bide my time. And as for you, it's true I can't attend to you here and now as I'd like. But just try to stay out of my way! Just try! I'll get you, my handsome...and your little puppy too! *cackles*


 * Deema disappears in a puff of smoke*

Little Fish: *gasps*

Oona: It's all right. You can all get up. She's gone! It's all right. You can all get up. Oh! What a smell of sulfur! I'm afraid you've made an enemy of the Wicked Witch. The sooner you get out of the Magical Kingdom altogether, the safer you'll sleep, my dear.

Gil: Oh, I'd give anything to get out of the Magical Kingdom altogether. But which is the way back to Bubbletucky? I can't go the way I came.

Oona: No, that's true. The only person who might know...would be the great and wonderful Wizard of the Magical Kingdom himself.

Gil: The Wizard of the Magical Kingdom? Is he good or is he wicked?

Oona: Oh, very good, but very mysterious. He lives in the Emerald Palace, a long journey from here. Did you bring your broomstick with you?

Gil: No, I'm afraid I didn't.

Oona: Well, then, you'll have to walk. The Little Fish will see you safely to the border of Little Fish Land. And remember, never let those purple slippers off your tail for a moment...or you will be at the mercy of the Wicked Witch of the West.


 * Oona kisses Gil on his head*

Gil: But how do I start for Emerald Palace?

Oona: It's always best to start at the beginning. And all you do is follow the Yellow Brick Road.


 * Gil swims to the beginning of the Yellow Brick Road*

Gil: But what happens if I-

Oona: Just follow the Yellow Brick Road.


 * Oona is turned into the pink bubble. The pink bubble flies away into the sky and disappears. The Little Fish swim off waving goodbye to Oona*

Little Fish: Goodbye!

Gil: My! Guppies come and go so quickly here!

Little Fish: *giggling*

Gil: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.


 * Gil and Bubble Puppy start to swim along the Yellow Brick Road*

Gil: Follow the Yellow Brick Road?

Mayor: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.

Fish 1: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.

Fish 2: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.

Barrister: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.


 * Gil and Bubble Puppy swim along the Yellow Brick Road*

Little Fish: *singing* Follow the Yellow Brick Road! Follow the Yellow Brick Road! Follow, follow, follow, follow! Follow the Yellow Brick Road! Follow the Yellow Brick! Follow the Yellow Brick! Follow the Yellow Brick Road!


 * Gil and Bubble Puppy start to skip along the Yellow Brick Road. The Little Fish Parade start to skip along behind them*

Little Fish: *singing* You're off to see the Wizard! The wonderful Wizard of the Magical Kingdom! You'll find he is a whiz of a wiz! If ever a wiz there was! If ever, oh ever a wiz there was! The Wizard of the Magical Kingdom is one because! Because, because, because! Because, because! Because of the wonderful things he does! You're off to see the Wizard! The wonderful Wizard of the Magical Kingdom!


 * The Little Fish cheer. Gil and Bubble Puppy turn back. Gil waves goodbye to the Little Fish. The Little Fish wave goodbye back to Gil still cheering. Gil and Bubble Puppy turn around and swim off along the Yellow Brick Road*
