Toto does still make an appearance.
Uzo Aduba wore a blonde curly wig when portraying Glinda in early promos. By the time the special actually aired, Glinda sported brunette braids instead, after the crew realized that letting Aduba show off her natural hair color would provide a stronger expression of African-American beauty.
"Dorothy Gale: Home isn't where you live, it's where you love."
"[last lines] Dorothy Gale: [singing] When I think of home, I think of a place where there's love overflowing. I wish I was home, I wish I was back there with the things I've been knowing. Wind that makes the tall grass bend into leaning. Suddenly, the raindrops that fall, they have meaning. Sprinkling the scene, makes it all so clean. Maybe there's a chance for me to go back, now that I have some direction. It would sure be nice to be back home where there's love and affection. And just maybe I can convince time to slow up, giving me enough time in my life to grow up. Time, be my friend, let me start again. Suddenly my world's gone and changed its face, but I still, I know where I'm going. I have had my mind spun around in space, yet I've watched it growing. And oh, if you're listening, God, please don't make it hard to know if we should believe in things we see. Tell us, should we try and stay, or should we run away, or would it be better just to let things be? Living here, in this brand new world might be a fantasy, oh, but it taught me to love, so it's real, it's so real to me. And I've learned that we must look inside our hearts to find a world so full of love, like yours, like mine. Like home! [Dorothy clicks her heels, and immediately winds up back in Kansas. Toto and Aunt Em rush in to welcome her home] Dorothy Gale: Toto! Oh, Aunt Em!"
