IMPORTANT NOTICE: I apologize in advanced if I did not answer every one of your questions. I received a truck load of reviews for the last episode and many of you left many questions, which is WONDERFUL! Thank you so much for supporting this story.
However, it might make my life easier if we reduce it to a three question maximum in reviews, that way I may be able to answer many of them.
REASONS YOUR QUESTION MAY NOT BE PUT ON THE SHOW:
1. It would take too long to answer
2. The content of your question might be considered offensive or above the K+ rating in any way
3. The same question (or a question similar to it) has already been answered by someone else in an earlier episode
4. I don't know how to answer it creatively
So get creative! The more interesting your question is, or the more unique, the more likely it is to get put on the show!
Again, thank you for reviewing! If you read this notice, please include the word "biscuit" in your review so I know.

"Well I must say that I'm pleased at how awesome the ratings are for our show!" Mindy said, returning in her mechanical bubble while still hiding her face in shadows.
"Excuse me, how long are you exactly planning on keeping us here!" Morrible yelled towards the bubble.
"Until people stop reviewing or I get bored. That's how long!" Mindy spat back. "Our first question-er-er is none other than SideshowJazz1! Dorothy, didn't you think about the shoes? Why did you think you had the right to steal Nessa's shoes? "
"Well first of all Jazzy, is it alright if I call you Jazzy? I did not literally take them off her feet. They appeared on my feet and I just refused to give them back because I thought they were beautiful! Now is that a crime?" Dorothy explained.
"Yes!" Nessa hissed.
"Next question, Elphaba, you're awesome. Totally. But were you actually planning to kill Dorothy? Why did you go to such extremes?"
Elphaba rolled her eyes.
"Alright, let's get this cleared away. I was never actually going to kill her, but at the time it felt like the only way to convince her to give me the shoes back. I mean come on, the worst thing I did was make them run through a field of poppies-"
"And the fire ba-" Fiyero began before being shushed by Elphaba.
"So no, I wasn't actually going to kill her."
"Gee thanks, don't I feel loved?" Dorothy grumbled, picking at her fingernails.
"And the last thing they said was everyone that was a student at Shiz, you are all really cool!" Mindy read.
"YES!" said Madame Morrible and Boq at the same time, giving each other a high-five.
"It says student!" Glinda pointed out, and Madame Morrible stuck her ancient tongue out at her.
"Our next reviewer is IloveWicked-RENT23 who has casted a vote saying that the Wizard should not get a chair. Dorothy, DO YOU HATE YOUR DOG? Toto is possibly the worst name EVER."
"I agree!" Glinda shouted, shooting her hand up in the air. "I think Dodo is much better suited for him? Right?" she insisted, looking to the others who all nodded in agreement.
"No! Toto loves his name, don't you?" Dorothy asked Toto who growled from his dog pillow.
"Well it could be worse, you could have named your dog Killjoy," said Fiyero, rolling his eyes.
"Hey!" Elphaba said, insulted. "Don't insult my alternate universe dog!"
"Why do you get so upset over the simplest thing!" Fiyero complained.
"Oh go jump in a lake!" Elphaba argued, turning away and crossing her arms.
"You two are so cute," said Glinda sadly, crossing her arms.
"There, there Glinda. I think I have something that will cheer you up. IloveWicked-RENT23 has requested that I give you your pink jeweled shoes!" Mindy announced happily.
In a small explosion of glitter two pink shoes appeared in front of Glinda's chair. She broke out into a huge smile and snatched them up.
"Thank you whoever you are!" she said happily, putting them on her feet. "Now if only I was wearing a cuter outfit to match them…"
"So who was the next reviewer?" Elphaba asked.
"Now be patient, she left one more review!" Mindy was silent for a moment, causing the characters to exchange puzzled glances.
"Well?" Elphaba asked warily. "Who's the question for?"
"Um…I think I'll save that one until the end of this episode," Mindy decided. "Next reviewer! DEgreeniFYgravity, for the whole cast, what would you all think of a musical sequel based on "Son of a Witch" or a trilogy with "A Lion Among Men" Mindy asked.
"Um…well I personally don't think musicals should have sequels. They aren't books or movies, they're different. Also, my opinion isn't at all altered by the fact that Mindy loathes the idea of 'Love Never Dies', the sequel to Phantom," Nessa explained, nodding.
"Next question is for Elphaba. Since Dorothy gave the Wizard your broom at the end of The Wizard of Oz, did you ever get it back? If so, how?"
"Oh well…we definitely needed that broom to escape safely, and we weren't about to go back to the palace. It was a fairly simple spell, I just enchanted another one. It was tough to say goodbye to that one though, I don't know, call me sentimental."
"You inherited that from me!" exclaimed the Wizard.
"Next question is for Elphaba and Fiyero… How did you feel about running away together and leaving Glinda so heartbroken?" Mindy read. Elphaba and Fiyero, who had just started a conversation, didn't look up to answer.
"Okay…and Glinda, how did you feel about it?" Mindy said. Glinda looked up from admiring her shoes.
"How did I feel when they ran away together, leaving me heartbroken? Marvelous," she answered sarcastically.
"Yikes, Glinda's got an attitude. I like that," Boq said creepily, causing Glinda to gag.
"Next question, if a Wicked movie were made, who could you see playing your characters?"
"Well Mindy loves everyone who was in the cast she saw on tour. Vicki Noon and Natalie Daradich were wonderful. She also has a list of some of her favorite Elphaba/Glinda actresses on her profile if you'd like to know some others," Glinda advertised, figuring that would suffice.
"YeroismyHero is our next contestant! Elphie, I dare you to have a heart to heart chat with your dad (The Wizard, not Frex)."
"What?" Elphaba exclaimed loudly, though the Wizard seemed pleased to be able to get to know his daughter.
A little ways away from the circle of chairs and people sitting on the ground, a table and two wooden chairs appeared. One of the chairs was marked 'temporary seating'.
Elphaba reluctantly stood up and took a seat, and the Wizard took a seat across from her. Fiyero's eyes darted protectively over to them every few seconds, his fists clenched on the armrests of his chair.
"So…Elphaba…" started the Wizard awkwardly. "How is school going?"
"I was forced to leave school because of you, your wonderful Wizard-ness," she spat.
"Oh please, call me dad."
"I most certainly will not!"
"Well father sounds so formal and I like to think-"
"Well we'll let them talk as we ask some other questions-" Mindy began.
"And why would you tease me with that 'Wonderful' song of yours! It was practically like making a deal with the devil!"
"Oh now that's harsh, say, did your mother ever mention me growing up?"
"Unbelievable!"
"This question is for everyone, what do you like better the musical or the book?"
Glinda, Nessa, and Fiyero all voted for the musical, while Madame Morrible and Boq voted for the book.
"Personally, I prefer 'The Wizard of Oz' if you were asking me," said Dorothy, snottily.
"Well no one asked you!" Mindy sighed. "Oz, sometimes I feel like your babysitter, Dorothy!"
"I know the feeling," Fiyero grumbled.
"I don't understand why you have to keep dwelling on the past!" the Wizard said, still in a conversation with Elphaba.
"You ordered a young girl to execute your own daughter!"
"I didn't know you were my daughter!"
"And that makes it okay?"
"Fiyero, which nickname is more annoying: Fi-Fi or crow-crow?" Mindy asked, trying to speak over Elphaba and the Wizard's elevated voices.
Fiyero grimaced. "Well neither are very flattering, but I can handle the person who calls me Fifi much more than the person who calls me Crow-Crow!"
"HEY!" Dorothy protested.
"Besides, I don't want to be constantly reminded of the fact I was once made of straw."
"I am a sentimental man, who always longed to be a fath-"
"Oh not this again…"
"Our next returning reviewer is Whitemermage who has casted her vote, saying the Wizard should get a chair. If you could use three words, one to describe your best friend, one for your worst enemy, and one for your whole life, what would they be?"
"Look, we'll talk later. Nice chatting with you," said Elphaba sarcastically as she and the Wizard went to take their seats.
"Three words?" Glinda started. "Um…unfashionable, fish, sparkly."
"Gee, thanks!" Elphaba rolled her eyes. "Perky, farm, unfortunate."
"Green, Gale Force-"
"Fiyero that's two words!" Elphaba pointed out.
"Why does she get to be your best friend!" Dorothy blurted out, pointing a finger towards Elphaba.
"Shall we move on? Let's welcome theoretically kym667103 to the show! Fiyero, how would you feel if Elphaba cut her hair really short?"
Fiyero gasped and his eyes widened, Elphaba looking at him with a puzzled expression.
"W-why would you even joke about something like that? She can't cut her hair! It's who she is—Elphaba how could you cut your hair!" Fiyero demanded, turning to Elphaba who rolled her eyes.
"I'm not cutting my hair, Fiyero! It was rhetorical!"
"Oh thank Oz," he sighed, leaning over to kiss her forehead.
"Our next reviewer is Fizzy Starburst! Hm…Fizzy Starburst…that username actually sounds almost edible! Kind of like a starburst that kind of has a pop rocks sensation—oh right. This is really off topic. Boq, we all know that you lived with Nessa as her servant for an undisclosed amount of time. Did you and Nessa ever...y'know...do anything? I'll settle for makeouts! If yes, did you enjoy them? HONESTLY?"
It was hard to tell who looked more embarrassed, but it was probably Nessa.
"Is it really necessary to answer that?" Nessa protested. Elphaba scoffed.
"Try having to answer all of the questions about what really happened during 'As Long As You're Mine'," she said before smacking Fiyero's arm because he was grinning.
"Well…we were together a long time so…" Nessa cleared her throat.
"So there were a few makeout sessions! So what?" Boq exclaimed. Nessa put her face in her hands.
"Everyone but the Wizard, do you consider the Wizard evil, a villan, or just mislead or misunderstood?"
The characters exchanged glances to each other, the Wizard looking at nervously.
"I wouldn't necessarily call him evil just kind of…" Glinda started.
"Pathetic?"
"Power hungry?"
"Seeking something more glamorous and wonderful then his corn-fed hick life?"
"Yes! Those are the correct adjectives!" Glinda nodded. "But evil? I don't think so."
"Glinda, would you ever consider dying you hair?"
"No," Glinda said without hesitation. People looked to her to elaborate but she said nothing else.
"Fiyero, WHERE DID YOU LEARN TO DANCE LIKE THAT?"
Fiyero grinned and Glinda blushed a bit. "All natural talent. It wouldn't be any fun if I let you in on all of my secrets, would it? I've just always been magnificent!" he grinned.
"And modest too!" said Elphaba sarcastically.
"Our next person to welcome is FinalFantasy84! Welcome! Glinda, you were popular in school. How many boyfriends have you ever had?"
"I courted many many boys in high school, but I was always looking for the one, you know? We never went out on more than two dates," Glinda shrugged. "Until Fiyero," she glared.
"Now now, no harsh feelings!"
"Sorry Mindy, just staying sort of in character," Glinda apologized.
"Fiyero, do you sing in the bath?" Mindy read. This question was greeted with multiple snickers, especially from Elphaba and Glinda.
"No, I do not. And if I did, it my singing talent would knock your socks off!" Fiyero said defensively.
"Next question, Elphaba?" Mindy lowered her voice a whisper. "Does he sing in the bath?"
The snickers now turned into roaring laughter as Elphaba grinned and nodded.
"All the time!" she laughed before looking to Fiyero who was looking down. She took his arm. "But…his rendition of 'Don't Stop Believing' is truly inspiring. I love when he sings," she said sympathetically, trying to keep a straight face.
"Okay so we have…nine reviewers left today?" Mindy said in disbelief. "FaeTheDevoutScholar is next and if I'm not mistaken, is that not Darren Criss on your avatar? I approve! I loved him before he was on Glee! Fiyero, I dare you to poke the Wizard continuously for the rest of the episode."
Fiyero grinned, pleased to be granted with such an order.
"Fine, I'm a good sport," sighed the Wizard. I long poking stick appeared at Fiyero's feet and he picked it up, starting to poke the Wizard in the arm from his seat.
"I want a turn later!" Glinda said.
"Wizard, I dare you to try getting stung by a trackerjacker. Ah ha! Another 'Hunger Games' fan! Well the Wizard is a little preoccupied with being poked, and have you read about what those things do to people? Freaky. We don't want anyone hallucinating and most likely dying on the show."
"Our next returning reviewer is darkgemwildcat! Darkgem has also requested that Glinda get some pink shoes as well so…"
In another small explosion of glitter a pair of pink shoes appeared near Glinda's chair. She grinned, despite the fact she already had a pair.
"Thank you! You can never have too many shoes!"
"Morrible, did you know hate makes you ugly? OH, too late..."
"Oooooooooh, burn!" the Wizard teased, still being poked in the arm by Fiyero. Morrible sent him a death glare and he looked down.
"Well it's true, I read in my copy of the Grimmerie that they made it so the eviler Morrible gets, the more her hair line recedes! It's a scientific fact! Dorothy, HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU NEED TO HEAR IT TO GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL? YOU DID NOT KILL ELPHABA! SHE DIDN'T MELT END OF STORY!"
Dorothy laughed lightly and shook her head.
"So naïve, so very naïve. I think I know what I saw!" is said. "Duh, right Elphaba?" she asked. Elphaba rolled her eyes.
"Ow!" the Wizard complained as the stick poked him in the arm a little too hard.
"She also writes, also I would gladly come and slap Dorothy, teleport me to wherever you are and I will be happy to oblige…oh shoot. Unfortunately the teleporting machine isn't working today! I tried to teleport the pizza guy and he got lost somewhere between space and time. Shame too, because we wanted cheesy bread.
"I believe Jamie Jazz is new to the show! Elphaba, firstly you're awesome, secondly, who do you think plays the best you in all the different versions of the musical, goes for you too Glinda!"
"You can consult Mindy's profile for the answer to that question, same for Glinda," Elphaba nodded.
"Elphaba, also, how do you feel about being named after the guy who wrote the Wizard of Oz?"
"I'm what? Really? Did you guys know this?"
"I knew it!" Mindy said happily.
"Well I guess I don't mind, it's kind of neat how my name honors the creator of Oz in a way."
"Glinda, do you prefer Galinda or Glinda?"
"Well I was always so used to Galinda growing up…you know…with a Ga? But Glinda means more because I came up with it to take a stand!" she said proudly.
"Wizard, I actually don't think your that bad, goes for you too Boq." Both of them smiled.
"Elphaba, my arm is starting to hurt," Fiyero complained, continuing to poke.
"Sorry, the rules were very clear, not until the end of the episode."
"Now let's welcome back Elphaba wannabe. Boq, were you honestly sincere and not drunk on the potion when you said you loved Nessa?"
"We-"
"Well technically, the potion made you say the truth no matter what, whether or not you would say it while not under its spell depends. It's a complicated situation. Elphaba wannabe also wrote, Glinda, you are getting your shoes! Enjoy!" Mindy read.
Glinda shrieked as another explosion of glitter appeared in front of her as another pair of pink shoes appeared.
"Thank you, how very kind. Wow…three pairs of shoes…Elphie do you want a pair-"
"No."
"Next reviewer is my friend oO Gabgalrox Oo! Boq, I could see you as a less hunky/talented/deep Phantom of the Opera. Just sayin'. What do you think?"
"Really? Thanks for the compliment!"
"You do know the Phantom has a horribly disfigured face, right?" Nessa asked.
"Oh…"
"But I still love him!" Mindy insisted. "Second best musical ever. Fiyero, I think you're awesome. Like, I really, really think you're awesome. SO, yeah. Have you made any green jokes to Elphaba since your passionate reunion?"
"Well not harsh ones of course, but little-"
"Annoyances?"
"Comments here and there come about," Fiyero said. "I like her skin."
"The next person that left a question is listen2music4ever! Wizard, how did you meet Elphaba's mother? When did the obsession the green elixir start?"
"I met her at a bar near Munchkinland, she looked really lonely and I thought she was hot-"
"Don't say another word!" Nessa and Elphaba shouted in unison.
"As for the green elixir, a merchant sold me a few bottles when I arrived in Oz and taught me how to make it. Strange…I never saw him again."
"I think we'll move on to our next reviewer, but long story short, listen2music has requested I do this first!"
Suddenly two chandeliers landed on top of Dorothy and Madame Morrible before vanishing, leaving them disoriented.
"Loverly. Wicked Is My Life is our next guest! For the Wizard, can I have some Green Elixir? Please? Also, what is your real name? I mean, you weren't named "The Wizard of Oz"."
"Excuse me, do you not see how much damage that little green bottle caused?" Elphaba blurted out. "It should be illegal!"
"Then how come it was advertised in the commercial break?" Glinda asked.
"My real name? Oz it has been so long since I used it…well it varies from fanfiction to fanfiction but I believe the most well known name is Oscar, or Ozcar," Ozcar explained.
"Wicked Is My Life also left this controversial review…here goes… Morrible, I support you! I don't think you're evil! Except for when you tried to take down Elphie."
Morrible looked up in surprised, as did everyone else.
"WHAT!" everyone but Morrible said.
"And she requests that we make a Morrible scoreboard, though she would be the only one on it. Of course, if you hadn't noticed, there is only one person on the non-supporter side for Nessa now. I didn't expect it to go that way to be honest."
"I'm afraid we'll have to move on for now, let's welcome back SunRise19! SunRise says, I think that Glinda should get the shoes! And, Nessa can get the silver ones.."
Glinda covered her ears as another explosion of glitter appeared in front of her, revealing another pair of shoes. Nessa, however, was unprepared and jumped with the silver shoes appeared in front of her. She was, however, thrillified to have them back.
"Thank you," Glinda called up weakly, putting the shoes by the other two pairs on the floor, now having acquired four pairs.
"Be careful what you wish for, Glinda," Elphaba snickered.
"Question for Morrible, how did you get to be so good at controlling and making the weather? Who taught you your magic?"
"Well, it isn't my true talent. Encouraging talent is my special talent! And as for your question, I've always loved thunderstorms. They're so malevolent and dark. And who taught me magic is none of your concern," the fish lady explained.
"Elphie, if I can call you that, does Fiyero ever sing to you?"
"Well first of all, only Glinda can call me that name," Elphaba started.
"Didn't you hear, he sings Journey songs in the tub!" Glinda giggled.
"Well yes, but…he does sing to me. On occasion," Elphaba said softly, Fiyero, who was busy poking the Wizard didn't pay attention.
"Moving on now to Jedi Anne Scrambler who asks everyone, what did you want to be when you were a little kid?"
"Oh! A princess!" Glinda said immediately.
"You're my princess," Boq said before Glinda threw one of her shoes back at him. It whacked him in the forehead and flew back to its original spot like a boomerang.
"The governor of Munchkinland," Elphaba and Nessa said at the same time.
"I can't remember that far back," Morrible said.
"Oh, and Glinda?" Mindy said.
There was another explosion of glitter and yet another pair of pink heels appeared in front of Glinda.
Glinda sighed.
"What's the matter?" Elphaba asked.
"I got what I wanted," she said.
"Then what's the problem?"
"Nothing…except I don't need five pairs of the same shoes! Maybe I should give the extra pairs to someone less fortunate than I, which shouldn't be to hard, because let's face it! Who isn't less fortunate than I?"
"Our last reviewer of the night is Novelist N Training, who for the record is only one person. I knew that, poor editing skills on my part in the last chapter. I apologize. Novelist asks Fiyero and Dorothy, when those apples pegged you, who thinks that they got the worst of it?"
Fiyero shrugged. "We were both hit with an equal amount of fruit but I couldn't feel pain back then so…sucks for you Dorothy!" he laughed.
"That was mean! But I forgive you Crow-Crow!" Dorothy nodded.
"Well that was our last question!"
"Oh thank Oz," the Wizard and Fiyero said. Fiyero stopped poking and the Wizard sighed, rubbing his arm.
"Cheer up Ozcar, because I have good news for you! Five of our reviewers voted on your poll and winning by one vote, I now present you with a chair!"
A new chair appeared by Nessarose, it wasn't as extravagant or comfortable-looking as the others but it looked nice enough. The Wizard smiled and took his seat.
"I get a name, a conversation with my daughter, and a chair all in one episode!"
"Wait, Mindy, you said there was a question that you were saving to the end?" asked Elphaba, remembering.
"Oh that's right!" Mindy exclaimed. "Going back to IloveWicked-RENT23… Fiyero, congrats on trying to learn to read! (and congrats to Elphie for teaching him... I'm sure that is a difficult task...) so, are you and Elphaba married yet? And if not at least engaged, I dare you to propose."
The entire room was silent, everyone looking at the stunned looking couple. Glinda and Nessa then gasped and put her hands over their mouth when Fiyero stood up and bent down on one knee in front of Elphaba.
"Elphaba…will you…"
"Fiyero," Elphaba said in a panicked voice.
"Elphaba will you marry me?"
