SEQUENCE 2_02 - "Thicket"

2_02_00 EXT. OPEN ROAD - DAY TIN WOODMAN, SCARECROW and WOOT travel down a WINDING ROAD amid ROLLING HILLS and a patch of THICK WOODS.

WOOT

     Sire, who will rule during your absence? 


TIN WOODMAN

     I do not rule here. I merely await the visits of our friend, Ozma, her Majesty of all Oz… The kingdom runs itself... The people of Oz have but one law: “Behave yourself," so it is difficult for them to go very far wrong. 

2_02_01 Wooden SIGN on a twisted post. On it is a skull and cross bones. It reads: “All Strangers are Warned not to Follow this Path to Loonville.” SCARECROW reads the sign aloud to TIN WOODMAN & WOOT.

SCARECROW

     All strangers are warned not to follow this path to Loonville...

2_02_10 SCARECROW 054 M-maybe w-we should go another way…

TIN WOODMAN Good Idea! Perhaps if we were to go back to...

WOOT 055 I’d like to see what this… Loonville looks like.

TIN WOODMAN and SCARECROW look at WOOT with alarm.

2_02_14 SCARECROW 057 B-but… a warning means danger... And I for one believe it sensible to keep out of danger whenever we can. D-don’t you agree, Sire?

2_02_15 TIN WOODMAN 057-01 Well, I...

WOOT 058 I’m not afraid.

2_02_17 SCARECROW Well, you wouldn't be. But what if we ran into straw weevils or barley blight ...

2_02_18 TIN WOODMAN walks away from sign towards forest SCARECROW (continuing in background) ... or basket weavers or pack rats or hay balers or grazing livestock or roof thatchers or high humidity or mattress stuffers or archery target makers or, or...

2_02_18b SCARECROW ... a box of matches!

2_02_18c TIN WOODMAN Look, We’ll manage, ok? (pokes axe in from edge of frame)

2_02_19 SCARECROW 059-01 Now let's think this through!

2_02_20 WOOT 059-02 Maybe you should wait here then?

2_02_21 SCARECROW 059-03 Buh-buy-by myself? Well...

2_02_21c SCARECROW 059-03 ...Maybe I will!

2_02_22 TIN WOODMAN 059-04 Oh that's a Good idea! You stay in this open clearing and keep an eye out for the Opteryx.

2_02_23 SCARECROW 059-05 Opteryx?

2_02_24 TIN WOODMAN 059-06 You can’t miss her! She’s got 20-foot wings… and a huge beak…

WOOT And she flies around looking for straw to build her nest with!

2_02_24c SCARECROW reacts to straw being pulled out Gah!!

WOOT good bye!

SCARECROW looks toward Tin Woodman & Woot leaving.

2_02_25 TIN WOODMAN & WOOT walk off. TIN WOODMAN See you later…

2_02_26 SCARECROW remains behind and looks about nervously. After several moments a small bird lands on SCARECROW’s shoulder and chirps at him.

SCARECROW

     Ahhhh!

SCARECROW runs towards TIN WOODMAN and WOOT.

SCARECROW 059-09 Hey, wait, you guys… you’re gonna need me!

2_02_29 EXT. WOODS – DAY

TIN WOODMAN hacks through heavy underbrush, followed by WOOT and SCARECROW. They are surrounded by EXOTIC PLANTS.

2_02_30 WOOT struggles through a nest of thorny VINES.

WOOT This is tough going...

2_02_31 SCARECROW Yes, indeed it is.

2_02_32 TIN WOODMAN hacks through several writhing vines.

2_02_33 SCARECROW is suddenly engulfed in writhing vines.

SCARECROW (gasps) Help! Ahh! Ahh! It's a snake!

2_02_34 TIN WOODMAN and WOOT look OS towards Scarecrow.

TIN WOODMAN Will you look at him...

2_02_35 SCARECROW Ahh... Ahh...

2_02_36

WOOT (exasperated) It's vines.

2_02_37 SCARECROW stops struggling stands up.

2_02_38 SCARECROW winks.

SCARECROW It might be vine for you but it's killing me...

2_02_39 WOOT makes a face at the pun.

2_02_40 TIN WOODMAN turns forward and continues trekking through the trees.

2_02_41 SCARECROW, smiling, walks a few paces then falls away from view.

SCARECROW Ahhhh... (falling away)

2_02_42 TIN WOODMAN and WOOT don't turn back.

2_02_43 WOOT sneaks a glance back anyway.

WOOT Look. I think he fell into a hole.

2_02_44 SCARECROW⿿S hat sit on the forest floor.

2_02_45 TIN WOODMAN turns.

2_02_47 SCARECROW falls earthward.

2_02_48 SCARECROW (OS) Ahhhhh...
