Once was when she had made the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\">Winkies her slaves, and set herself to rule over their country. The Winged Monkeys had helped her<\/span><\/span> do this. The second time was when she had fought against the Great Oz himself, and driven him out of the land of the West. The <a href=\"#\">Winged Monkeys<\/a> had also helped her in doing this. Only once more could she use this Golden Cap, for which reason she did not like to do so until all her other powers were exhausted. But now that her fierce wolves and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\">her wild crows and her stinging bees were gone<\/span><\/span>, and her slaves had been scared away by the Cowardly Lion, she saw there was only one way left to destroy Dorothy and her friends.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_438\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-438\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-438 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"http:\/\/limitless.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/j1k23hs.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-438\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wicked Witch surrounded by a crowd of monkeys, each with a pair of immense and powerful wings on his shoulders.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Next she stood upon her right foot and said: &#8220;Hil-lo, hol-lo, hel-lo!&#8221; After this she stood upon both feet and cried in a loud voice: &#8220;Ziz-zy, zuz-zy, zik!&#8221; Now the charm began to work. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\">The sky was darkened, and a low rumbling sound was heard<\/span><\/span> in the air. There was a rushing of many wings, a great chattering and laughing, and the sun came out of the dark sky to show the Wicked Witch surrounded by a crowd of monkeys, each with a pair of immense and powerful wings on his shoulders. One, much bigger than the others, seemed to be their leader. He flew close to the Witch and said, &#8220;<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>You have called us for the third and last time. What do you command?<\/strong><\/span>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Go to the strangers who are within my land and destroy them all except the Lion,&#8221; said the Wicked Witch. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>&#8220;Bring that beast to me, for I have a mind to harness him like a horse, and make him work.&#8221;<\/strong> <\/span>&#8220;Your commands shall be obeyed,&#8221; said the leader. Then, with a great deal of chattering and noise, the Winged Monkeys flew away to the place where Dorothy and her friends were walking.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #30a3ec;\">Wicked Witch took the Golden Cap from her cupboard<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Great Oz himself, and driven him out of the land of the West. The Winged Monkeys had also helped her in doing this. Only once more could she use this <a href=\"#\">Golden Cap<\/a>, for which reason she did not like to do so until all her other powers were exhausted. But now that her fierce wolves and her wild crows and her stinging bees were gone, and her slaves had been scared away by the <a href=\"#\">Cowardly Lion<\/a>, she saw there was only one way left to destroy Dorothy and her friends.\u00a0So the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\">Wicked Witch took the Golden Cap from her cupboard<\/span><\/span> and placed it upon her head. Then she stood upon her left foot and said slowly: &#8220;Ep-pe, pep-pe, kak-ke!&#8221; Next she stood upon her right foot and said.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #30a3ec;\">The bigger question is: why do this at all?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Then the Lion gave a great roar and sprang towards them, and the poor Winkies were so frightened that they ran back as fast as they could. When they returned to the castle the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\">Wicked Witch beat them well with a strap, and sent them back to their work<\/span><\/span>, after which she sat down to think what she should do next. She could not understand how all her plans to destroy these strangers had failed; but she was a powerful Witch, as well as a wicked one, and she soon <a href=\"#\">made up<\/a> her mind how to act. There was, in her cupboard, a Golden Cap, with a circle of diamonds and rubies running round it. This <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Golden Cap<\/strong><\/span> had a charm. Whoever owned it could call three times upon the Winged Monkeys, who would obey any order they were given. But no person could command these strange creatures more than three times.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s very possible that his shooting schedule could have conflicted with\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Gotham<\/b><\/span>&#8216;s, but that doesn&#8217;t mean his character has to <i>die<\/i>. For those of you wondering if he really dies, rest assured that the episode ends with a close-up of Jerome&#8217;s twisted smile, which is affixed to his face permanently in the afterlife. The boy is dead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had high hopes for the second season of Gotham \u2014 maybe that was my downfall.
