[It's a pleasant afternoon in the garden. Maybe not emotionally, but physically - isn't it nice when you get to have class outside?

As your voices rise, singing defiance in unison out for the Wizard, there's no immediate response; at least, nothing that clearly is a response. But there's something. Amidst the sound of your song, it may be hard to hear at first; Janis will likely be the first to notice, but eventually everyone is able to hear. It sounds as though other voices are rising along with yours.

There's something on the air - no music, or at least no instrumentals, just a disembodied sort of lyrical chant. You don't recognize any of the voices. They aren't singing the same song as you all are. Maybe they can't; they sound long long ago, and far far away now. Still - despite everything - the trees around you move lightly in a sudden soft breeze. It feels as though you have invoked something, old and entirely beyond your knowledge.

It's Wednesday.

[Finally I can just openly reference the fact that obviously Will knew he was stuck in a Groundhog Day situation!]

...Yes? So learn from it, dipshit! Stop getting more and more bitter!

I learned how to fix it. I'm trying to save everyone - there's no happy ending left for me, but there could be for other people! If things don't all fall apart!

THE ENDING YOU WANT ISN'T A HAPPY ENDING!

[He cries in frustration.]

I don’t care if I’d be happier if I forgot. I don’t care if I’d go through my life not knowing I was hurt by you.

I don’t wanna forget my family. I can’t forget them.

You learned one way. And shut up, you told a 15-year-old girl she has to die, you're not saving everyone, you're making yourself the hero and ignoring anyone else who might wanna help! You're so involved in your own pain you forgot the rest of us are people too!

Okay what do woodchucks have to do with anything.

I'll— it's a movie about an asshole who wakes up the same day every day for like...I don't know, a long time. I'll show you when we can forcibly remove this guy's head from his ass.
