Trivia[]

The title of the episode comes from a line of the original Dynasty series, first said by Alexis to Dex Dexter about Sable Colby, in the Season 9, Episode 18 : Tale from the Tape.
- In this episode, only the "that witch" part of the original line was kept, and is said by Alexis to Fallon about Cristal.
This episode makes Dynasty the second show to have a Wizard of Oz themed episode and to have Elizabeth Gillies in it, the first being the Nickelodeon teen show Victorious in which Giles played Jade West from 2010 to 2013.
- However in the Victorious episode, she played the Wicked Witch of the West counterpart, but in the Dynasty one she plays the counterpart of Dorothy.

Quotes[]

Fallon (to Blake and Cristal): Oh, looks like someone's having a leg, a breast and a thigh. Can you two put some clothes on? People need to take shelter.

Fallon (as Dorothy): Mom?
Alexis: Oh, no, my dear. I am the Good Witch of the North.
Fallon: Really? 'Cause that is not the witch I would have cast you as.
Alexis: You can't even be nice to your own mother in your dream?

Fallon (as Dorothy): Um... Daddy? (to Cristal) Wait. My mom was right. You did want to kill him.
Cristal (as the Wicked Witch): I didn't do anything. You killed him when you sold his company out from under him. Poor Blake.
Alexis (as the Good Witch): Don't listen to her. That witch has got weapons she's never used.
Cristal: I want to help Blake, not hurt him.
Alexis: She's only here for one reason: Money.

Fallon (as Dorothy): I have no idea why you can't get it through your straw head that I am with Culhane. It's like you don't have any...
Liam (as the Scarecrow): Brains. Well if I don't, its because I've lost my mind for you.
Fallon: And I've just lost my mind.

Fallon (as Dorothy): I'll go find the wizard myself.
Culhane (as The Tin Man): There's no way in hell I'm skipping.

Alexis: I'm sorry about the last few days. I let that crazy psychic get to me. Or maybe I was just trying to convince myself that... it was real so that I could be a hero to Blake.
Fallon: I think you're forgetting what life with Daddy was like. It wasn't exactly rainbows and munchkins.
Alexis: (chuckles) I know. But sometimes it's easier to have the perfect relationship when it stays in... a fantasy world.

Blake: I have very bad habits. I always get what I want. I understand how this sounds, but I've never cared for someone as intensely as I care for you. So I can't stop myself, and I don't want to stop myself.
Cristal: I find you incredibly sexy. There's nothing more attractive than a man who knows what he wants and does what it takes to get it. But for this to work... and I do want it to, Blake... you have to let me know you completely. No matter what you fear my reaction might be.
Blake: Okay. You want to know me? I don't like to play games. I don't like to waste time. And I didn't believe in fate until I met you. And today reminded me that life is too short to wait for what you want. Marry me.

Fallon: I did think about you. A lot. And that kiss. All of them. And I made my decision.
Liam: Okay. What's that?
Fallon: You were right. The other day in my office, that was goodbye. I can't do this anymore. I love Culhane, and what he and I have together is real. So... I'm sorry, Liam, but it's over.

Alexis: I'm surprised you wanted to meet here on the property, behind enemy lines. But now that I have money, you'll never have to come here again. Wait a couple days to cash it, but it's, um, all there.
Hank: That'll do it. And you're right. You'll never have to see me again. I'm taking the money and I'm hitting the road like a lonesome wolf. It's been a pleasure.
Alexis: More like a train wreck. But, um, good luck to you and your adobe hunting ranch.
Hank: You know, you weren't such a bad mom after all.
