Tina, you're always turning up where you're least wanted.
Percival Graves You're an interesting man, Mr. Scamander.
Mr. Graves...
Percival Graves You were thrown out of Hogwarts for endangering human life...
That was an accident.
Percival Graves ...with a beast. Yet one of your teachers argued strongly against your expulsion. Now...what makes Albus Dumbledore...so fond of you?
Percival Graves So setting a pack of dangerous creatures loose here was just another accident, is that right?
Why would I do it deliberately?
Percival Graves To expose wizardkind. To provoke war between the magical and non-magical worlds.
Percival Graves Yes, quite.
I'm not one of Grindelwald's fanatics, Mr. Graves.
Percival Graves You're a Squib, Credence. I could smell it on you the moment I met you.
What?
Percival Graves You have magical ancestry, but no power.
But you said you could teach me.
Percival Graves You're unteachable, Credence. Your mother's dead, that's your reward. I'm done with you.
Percival Graves Credence...I owe you an apology.
I trusted you. I thought you were my friend. I thought you were different.
Percival Graves You can control it, Credence.
I don't think I want to, Mr. Graves.
He was responsible for the death of a No-Maj. He risked the exposure of our community. He has broken one of our most sacred laws...
Percival Graves A law that has us scuttling like rats in the gutter! A law that demands we conceal our true nature! A law that directs those under its dominion to cower in fear lest we risk discovery! I ask you, Madam President, I ask all of you...Who does this law protect? Us? Or them? I refuse to bow down any longer.
