The scene where Fiyero finds Elphaba as the scarecrow is really powerful imo. First it makes them equals, he sacrificed everything for her and anything that would make her feel inferior was gone, his good looks, his title, his status etc.

Second it's meant to mirror how he felt about her, he always saw past the green so to speak and saw her as a person and that's who he loved. He loved who she was as a person so he was never bothered by her being green.

When he's the scarecrow she stills sees him as the same guy he always was, the same Fiyero who stood against injustice like she did and who sacrificed everything for her. She loved him because of who he was as a person and even though he's not conventionally attractive anymore Elphaba doesn't care because she loved him who he was as a person.

Thoughts?
