Scenes with Ginny Weasley

3 scenes

Bet you loved that, didn't you, Potter? Famous Harry Potter. Can't even go into a bookshop without leading the front page.

Ginny Weasley

Leave him alone.

Oh, look, Potter. Got yourself a girlfriend.

[Places the silver snake of his walking stick on Draco's shoulder]

Now, now, Draco. Play nicely. [To Harry] Lucius Malfoy. Your scar is legend. As is, of course, is the wizard who gave it to you.

Voldemort killed my parents. He was nothing more than a murderer.

Hmm, you must be very brave to mention his name... or very foolish.

Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself.

And you must be... Miss Granger. Yes, Draco's told me all about you... and your parents. Muggles, aren't they? [Looks at Ron] Let me see. Red hair, vacant expressions... [Takes a book out of Ginny's cauldron] tatty, secondhand book. You must be the Weasleys.

Ron
[The Weasley brothers enter the Burrow, quietly, as Harry looks around, with amazement]

It's not much, but it's home.

I think it's brilliant.

Molly
[comes downstairs; annoyed]

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?! [notices Harry; kindly] Harry, how wonderful to see you, dear. [to her sons; miffed] Beds empty?! No note?! Car gone?! You could have died! You could have been seen! Of course, I don't blame you, Harry, dear.

Ron

They were starving him, Mum. There were bars on his window.

Molly
[sternly]

Well, you best hope I don't put bars on your window, Ronald Weasley! Come on, Harry, time for a spot of breakfast. [A short time later, she makes breakfast as Ginny comes down the stairs and enters the kitchen] Here we are, Harry. Now tuck in. That's it. There we go.

Ginny

Mummy, have you seen my jumper?

Molly

Yes, dear, it was on the cat.

[when Ginny sees him in surprise]

Hello. [Ginny shyly runs off; confused] What did I do?

Ron

Ginny. She's been talking about you all summer. Bit annoying, really.

Arthur

Morning, Weasleys!

Fred, George and Ron

Morning, Dad.

Arthur

What a night. Nine raids. Nine!

Raids?

Ron

Dad works in the Ministry of Magic, in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office. Dad loves Muggles, thinks they're fascinating.

Arthur

Well, now, and who are you?

Oh, sorry, sir. I'm Harry, sir, Harry Potter.

Arthur

Good Lord, are you really? Well, Ron has told us all about you, of course. When did he get here?

Molly

This morning. Your sons flew that enchanted car of yours to Surrey and back last night.

Arthur

Did you really? How'd it go? I mean, that was very wrong, indeed, boys. Very wrong of you. Now, Harry, you must know all about Muggles. Tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?

Oh, um...

Molly

Well, that'll be Errol with the post. [Errol bumps into the window due to his poorly eyesight] Oh, fetch it, will you, Percy, please?

Percy

Errol...

Ron

He's always doing that.

Percy

Oh, look, it's our Hogwarts letters. And they've sent us Harry's as well.

Arthur

Dumbledore must know you're here, Harry. Doesn't miss a trick, that man.

Fred

This lot won't come cheap, Mum. The spell books alone are very expensive.

Molly

We'll manage. There's only one place we're going to get all of this: Diagon Alley.

Malfoy
[Malfoy corners Harry, Hermione, and the Weasley children at Flourish & Blotts Bookstore after Harry unwillingly gets his picture taken with Lockhart]

Bet you loved that, didn't you, Potter? Famous Harry Potter! Can't even go into a bookshop without making the front page!

Ginny
[firmly]

Leave him alone.

Malfoy
[Smirking]

Oh, look, Potter. You've got yourself a girlfriend!

[Places the hard, silver steel snake end of his walking stick on Draco's shoulder]

Now, now, Draco. Play nicely. [To Harry] Mr. Potter. Lucius Malfoy. We meet at last. [Pulls Harry closer] Forgive me. [Uses the silver snake to pull back Harry's bangs; sees his scar] Your scar is legend. As, of course, is the wizard who gave it to you.

[firmly]

Voldemort killed my parents. He was nothing more than a murderer.

Hmm. You must be very brave to mention his name. Or very foolish.

[Indirectly quoting Dumbledore]

Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself.

And you must be Miss Granger. Yes, Draco's told me all about you... and your parents. [Glances at the Grangers, who are speaking with Arthur] Muggles, aren't they? [Looks at Ron] Let me see. Red hair, vacant expressions... [Takes a book out of Ginny's cauldron] Tatty, secondhand book. [Smiles coldly] You must be the Weasleys.

Arthur Weasley
[Arriving and attempting to ignore Lucius]

Children, it's mad in here. Let's go outside.

Well, well, well. Weasley Senior.

Arthur Weasley

Lucius.

Busy time at the Ministry, Arthur? All those extra raids; I do hope they're paying you overtime. [Picks up one of Ginny's books] Though judging by the state of this, I'd say not. [Places the book back in Ginny's cauldron; another book has been slipped in with it, though only Harry notices] What's the use of being a disgrace to the name of wizard... if they don't even pay you well for it?

Arthur Weasley

We have a very different idea about what disgraces the name of wizard, Malfoy.

Clearly. Associating with Muggles... And I thought your family could sink no lower. [Arthur glares at him as if ready to hit him] I'll see you at work.

Malfoy

See you at school.
[Lucius and Draco leave]
