Plot
The flying monkey makes it back to Theodora and gives her the information on where Dorothy is. He tells her that Hunk has joined her also. With the information, she sets out to find Dorothy.

Dorothy, Hunk, and Toto begin to walk through a forested area. Dorothy says that she's hungry and Hunk finds a few apple trees. Dorothy attempts to pick an apple but a vine comes out of the tree and slaps her hand away, leaving a cut. Hunk runs over to check on her and the tree speaks, asking Dorothy what she thought she was doing. Dorothy tries to reason with it by saying that she was hungry but this only angers the tree more.

Hunk smirks and argues with the tree, stating that Dorothy wouldn't want apples "filled with worms." This angers the tree and it begins to throw apples at them both. They manage to catch some and Dorothy runs off to find one. She finds it and comes across a bulky metal man chopping trees with his ax. He seems to be very stilted in how he moves.

Dorothy walks up to him and asks him what's wrong and he instructs her to get him his oil can. She gets it for him and begins applying it to his joints. The Tin Man, now being fully able to move, thanks Dorothy. Hunk runs over and finds them both. He introduces himself to the Tin Man and Dorothy asks him why he's out here all alone in the forest. The Tin Man reveals that he's been out here chopping trees for a while and finds himself unsure what to do.

Dorothy asks him what he means and he says that he no longer has a heart because he's now made of metal. Hunk tells the Tin Man of their quest and the Tin Man asks if he can come with him to which they say he can. Just before they can keep walking, Theodora appears.

She tells Dorothy that she knows what she did and that she'll get her revenge. She threatens Hunk and Tin Man before unleashing a fireball at them. The Tin Man shields them both from it and Theodora flies away. Dorothy smiles at the two, happy that she's finally got some friends who can look out for her.

Dorothy, Hunk, the Tin Man, and Toto begin walking down the yellow brick road again.
