China Girl/Quotes

**China Girl**: Maybe where you come from. And, no, you aren't dreaming. I'm China Girl. And you are the man who is supposed to bring us peace.

**Walsh**: My name is Walsh. I recently came here in my circus balloon via cyclone. I was told that I was prophesied to be a great and powerful wizard.

**China Girl**: Let me guess. You're in denial? Feel unprepared?

**Walsh**: God, no! Back where I'm from, I was magician! I was born for this. Now, *Porcelain Girl*, I must be on my way.

**China Girl**: Not so fast. You must retrap the Nome King, I saw you free him!

**Walsh**: Glinda and Ozma can deal with that.

**China Girl**: That's not something I would expected a great and powerful wizard would say. Let me help you.

**China Girl**: Hello, Walsh. Care to owe me an explanation?

**Wizard of Oz**: *You*. Who allowed you in here? Someone's getting fired!

**China Girl**: I helped provide you with magic to stop the Nome King, and you took all the credit for yourself! You never even mentioned me!

**Wizard of Oz**: To be fair, you don't really have a name.

**China Girl**: You're no wizard. You're a charlatan! Why did you do this?

**Wizard of Oz**: Why do you think? If you had the opportunity to go from *nothing* to an esteemed leader, you'd take it, too. This is the life I was meant for!

**China Girl**: Don't pretend to know me. I'd rather be a hero than a con artist! Fame isn't all it's cracked up to be, Walsh. Listen to me. Remember when I said I can help you? Well, I still can. Let me be your apprentice.

**Wizard of Oz**: My *apprentice*? I don't need an apprentice. I am all Oz needs! *I* was the prophesied champion. You're just a dull, little porcelain child who is jealous of what I am, and what she will *never* be. A *hero*. Seems fame *is* all it's cracked up to be! Now get out of *my* castle, girl, or I'll show just how cracked up *you* can be.

### *The Wicked Queen of Oz* (Oz, Episode 4)

**China Girl**: Walsh, I need your help.

**Wizard of Oz**: Porcelain Girl, what a surprise! Who am I firing for letting you in this time?

**China Girl**: Walsh, enough. You have great power now, even if you don't deserve it, and I really need you.

**Wizard of Oz**: I thought I made myself clear last time. There are no second chances. I don't want to see you again.

**China Girl**: Mombi killed my parents. She orphaned me. I... I need magic. We're made of china, I can repair them if you let -

**Wizard of Oz**: Sorry for your losses, Porcy, but as the Wizard of Oz, I'm not obliged to help anyone who comes to see me.

**China Girl**: Fine. I should have known you wouldn't help. (*goes to leave, then stops*) Tell me, Walsh, does it make you happy? Pretending to be the prophesied hero Glinda hoped you be, just so you could get all the riches, magic and praise without *actually* doing anything? You know what? After I save my parents, I'm going to see to it that Glinda realizes exactly the fraud you are. And then you'll lose everything, and go right back to where you started. You'll get everything your rotten heart deserves.

**Wizard of Oz**: (*walks over*) In that case, you're not going anywhere. (*uses magic to make her inanimate*) God, you were annoying! I'm sure you'll get used to your new home on my shelf. And you're never going to bother me *ever* again.
