helping him learn to walk. Meanwhile she learns that her Enemy, the Wicked Witch, shadows
her at every turn and waits for the chance to strike. The Witch influences some grumpy apple
trees to become Enemies to Dorothy and the Scarecrow. The Scarecrow proves his worthiness
to be on the team by outwitting the trees. He taunts them into throwing apples, which he and
Dorothy pick up to eat.
Dorothy wins the affection of another Ally, the Tin Woodsman, by oiling his joints and
listening sympathetically to his sad story of having no heart. The Witch appears again,
showing her enmity for Dorothy and her Allies by hurling a fireball at them.
