Ding Dong the Witch is...


fed..........up with everyone condoning the outrageous theft of her rightful inheritance. Those Ruby Slippers are mine, um, hers. Really, Dorothy had no right to them and most certainly provoked the Witch of the West (that's what Glinda called her, not the Wicked Witch of the West) by resolutely keeping tight inside them. It is entirely possible that, if Glinda hadn't so blithely thrown Dorothy under the bus by publicly stealing the Witch of the East's Ruby Slippers and slipping them on Dorothy (there they are and there they'll stay) the Witch of the West might have believed Dorothy's story and believed in her innocence in the accidental death of her sister, from whom she would had just inherited a very powerful pair of magical objects. If Glinda hadn't decided Dorothy's fate for her in that moment, who knows what might have happened. Maybe the Witch of the West, by virtue of her power and magic should have been the ruler in Oz. Instead, she was assassinated for simply wanting what was rightfully hers.
