"Ellie how could you even--!" she shook her head, trying to hold back the tears once more. "Of course I love you just like you were my own daughter! And I didn't tell him. I only said you were the daughter of a friend who gave you to me as a child as it would not be good for either of you...I tried to lie and tell him it was someone from Gillikin, but he wouldn't give me the chance. He's not...the same person he will be...or would have been...he's still so bitter...doesn't trust me..."

"But I never meant to!" she shook her head, sobbing. "Ellie you have to understand I just want thing to be like they were. I'm not from here and now...I was living over two years in the future...I married that man that just cursed you! The same man that did everything in his power for you and your mother. Everything was fine. There was no jeopardizing anything because there was nothing to jeopardize! I don't know how to just magically go backwards! I don't remember how to be the me before everything happened--"

"You don't stop and think about how other people feel Glinda. I'm sorry, but sometimes you don't. Maybe in THIS time - he wasn't ready.
And I see now...having your own child will always matter more to you than...me. I understand, really I do. It's different. It's just...I'll never really belong anywhere. Especially now."

"I'll fix it. I'll lose him--I already have--I'll lie...something...I'll keep this from ruining you."
