The two room-mates make it perfectly clear that they loathe each other, and that the feeling is bound to last forever even though it was based on first impressions alone. The other students at Shiz align themselves with Galinda, condoling with her for having to put up with someone as "disgusticified" as Elphaba.
Doctor Dillamond , a Goat and Shiz University's only Animal professor, is teaching History when the class is interrupted by an anti-Animal slogan on the back of his blackboard, apparently written in blood: "Animals should be seen and not heard.
Elphaba believes that the Wizard should be notified, convinced that their great and powerful ruler wouldn't let something so bad take place in Oz. The darkness of this scene is off-set by Doctor Dillamond's repeated mispronunciation of Galinda's name as 'Glinda'.
Fiyero , a "scandalacious" Winkie prince, arrives at Shiz and immediately impresses his own brand of cavalier, carefree living on the students " Dancing Through Life ".
Galinda gravitates towards him immediately, and indeed she seems to be the perfect partner for the happy-go-lucky prince who doesn't like to "think too hard". While getting ready for a swanking party at the local Ozdust ballroom, Galinda and her friends discover a pointed black hat that belonged to Galinda's grandmother, which they give Elphaba as a 'present', hoping to make her look as ridiculous as possible.
When a persistent Munchkin boy called Boq tries to be Galinda's date for the evening, Galinda tells Boq that what would really make her happy is to see the wheelchair-bound Nessarose go out with him instead, making it seem like she wants him to do a good deed when in reality, she simply wants to get rid of an ardent but unwanted suitor.
Nessarose, who seems to have scarcely more friends than Elphaba herself due to her crippled condition, is overjoyed when Boq asks her out; she looks forward to finally having a fun evening, and asks Elphaba if there is any way to repay Galinda for 'kindly' setting Boq up with her. At the dance, Galinda is surprised by the appearance of Madame Morrible, who gives her a training wand and tells her that Elphaba has insisted she be included in Morrible's Sorcery Seminar. Clearly, despite apparent misgivings, Elphaba has done as her sister requested and found something nice to do for Galinda.
Elphaba arrives wearing the hat Galinda had given her, only to be scorned and derided. Defiant, she proceeds to dance alone, without musical accompaniment. Fiyero is impressed that Elphaba does not seem to care what anyone thinks of her, but Galinda realizes that this is not true. Feeling guilty, she joins Elphaba on the dance floor, thereby sparking a new friendship between the two.
Meanwhile, Nessarose comes to the realisation that Boq only asked her to the dance out of pity, but the Munchkin boy tells her that she is "so beautiful" and that this is why he really wanted to be her date. Nessarose is now convinced that she and Boq "deserve each other", just as Galinda is convinced that she and Fiyero "deserve each other"; but Boq isn't sure what he has got himself into, while Fiyero is already intrigued by Elphaba.
After the dance, Galinda and Elphaba have a heart to heart in their room. Elphaba confides that her father was so afraid that Melena's second child would also turn out to be green-skinned, that he had his wife eat milk flowers during her second pregnancy.
However, this resulted in Nessarose being born prematurely with her legs tangled up, and caused Melena to die at childbirth. Elphaba reveals that this is why her father hates her. Galinda comforts Elphaba, and, moved by a desire to help her new friend, Galinda decides to give Elphaba a complete make-over and make her popular, for no one knows more about what it takes to be popular than Galinda " Popular ".
The next day, Ozian officials take Doctor Dillamond away from the university. The new history teacher arrives with a frightened lion cub in a cage, revealing that Animals that are kept in cages will never learn to speak. Outraged, Elphaba casts a spell over the whole class except for Fiyero, and together they steal the cub and set it free.
There is a hint of chemistry between the pair, but Fiyero leaves, embarrassed. It begins raining, and Elphaba takes refuge under a bridge and laments that it would be impossible for someone like Fiyero to love someone like her " I'm Not That Girl ".
Madame Morrible finds Elphaba and announces that she has been granted an audience with the Wizard. Elphaba's spirits are immediately raised. Galinda complains to Elphaba privately that Fiyero's affections toward her seem to be waning. Fiyero has brought flowers for Elphaba as a going away present, and seems to be more interested in her than he is in Galinda.
In an attempt to impress Fiyero, Galinda announces that she will change her name to "Glinda", in honor of Doctor Dillamond's persistent mispronunciation. Get tickets to see Wicked on Broadway.
