Miss gulch: “ Mr. Gale! Mr. Gale! I want to see you and your right wife right away! It’s about Dorothy”

Uncle Henry: Dorothy? Well, what has Dorothy done?

Miss gulch: what’s she done? I’m all but lame from the bite on my leg!

Uncle Henry: you mean she bit you?

Miss gulch: No, her dog!

Uncle Henry: oh, she but her dog, eh?

Miss gulch: no! That dog is a menace to the community. I’m taking him to the sheriff and make sure he’s destroyed.

Dorothy: please I am Toto didn’t mean to. He didn’t know what he was doing. Anything wrong. I’m the one that ought to be punished. I let him go in her garden. You can send me to bed without supper!

Miss gulch: if you don’t handover that dog, I’ll bring a damage suit that’ll take your whole farm! There’s a law protecting folks against dogs that bite!

Aunt em: how would it be if she keeps him tied up? He’s really gentle with gentle people that is.
