Universal Pictures has a belated Christmas gift for us all.

In a newly released deleted scene from Wicked: For Good, we are given a glimpse at the deep friendships between Ariana Grande's Glinda, Cynthia Erivo's Elphaba, Jonathan Bailey's Fiyero, Ethan Slater's Boq, and Marissa Bode's Nessarose. As the quintet skip class at Shiz University to play games in the woods, boundaries and more than a few articles of clothing are stripped away, bonding them together for life.

Check out the video, and Bailey and Slater's impressive physiques, below.

Wicked: For Good was released in cinemas November 21. Starring Grande as Glinda and Erivo as Elphaba, the second of the two-part film adaptation also features West End Company Olivier winner and Bridgerton star Bailey as Fiyero, SpongeBob SquarePants star Slater as Boq, Emmy winner Peter Dinklage as Dr. Dillamond, Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, Jeff Goldblum as The Wizard, and Bode as Nessarose, the first wheelchair-using actor in the musical's history to take on the role.

Stage and screen star Keala Settle, Bowen Yang, Bronwyn James, Aaron Teoh, and Colin Michael Carmichael are also in the cast, with Settle as Miss Coddle, Carmichael as Professor Nikidik, and Yang, James, and Teoh as Shiz students Pfannee, ShenShen, and Avaric, respectively.

The screen adaptation, which includes new songs by Stephen Schwartz, is helmed by In the Heights screen director Jon M. Chu. Wicked book writer Winnie Holzman penned the screenplay with Dana Fox, and Tony winner Paul Tazewell designed the Oscar-winning costumes.

Wicked, injecting a new backstory onto the classic tale The Wizard of Oz, debuted on Broadway in 2003 and continues to be an audience favorite at the Gershwin Theatre. Based on the novel by Gregory Maguire, the musical features music and lyrics by Schwartz and a book by Holzman. The original cast included Tony winners Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth as Elphaba and Glinda, respectively. The musical is now the fourth longest-running production in Broadway history.

The show won 2004 Tony Awards for Best Actress in a Musical (Menzel), Best Costume Design (Susan Hilferty), and Best Scenic Design (Eugene Lee).
