In the Land of Oz, the citizens of Munchkinland celebrate the recent death of the Wicked Witch of the West. A child asks Glinda the Good why wickedness happens, and Glinda reflects on the question by discussing the Witch's backstory: born from an affair between the wife of then-Governor Thropp and a traveling salesman, she was rejected from birth due to her green skin, which caused her to suffer a troubled childhood ("No One Mourns the Wicked"). When asked if she and the Witch were friends, Glinda replies that they knew each other.
