3 scenes
Moody

Potter, you're underage, which means you still have the Trace on you.

What's the Trace?

Moody

If you sneeze, the Ministry will know who wipes your nose. Point is, we'll have to use those means of transport the Trace can't detect: Brooms, Thestrals, and the like; we'll go in pairs. That way if anyone's out there waiting for us, and I reckon there will be... they won't know which Harry Potter is the real one.

The real one?

Moody
[takes out Polyjuice Potion]

I reckon that you're familiar with this particular brew.

[recognizes it; sarcastically]

No, absolutely not.

Told you he'd take it well.

Moody

For those of you who haven't taken Polyjuice Potion before, fair warning: It tastes like goblin piss.

Have lots of experience with that, do you, Mad-Eye? ...Just trying to diffuse the tension.

Moody

All right, Granger. As discussed.

[as Hermione plucks a piece of his hair off his head]

Blimey, Hermione.

Moody

Straight in here if you please. [Hermione dips the hair into the flask] For those of you who haven't taken Polyjuice Potion before, fair warning: it tastes like goblin piss.

Have lots of experience with that, do you, Mad-Eye? [Moody glares at him] ...Just trying to diffuse the tension.

Fred and George
[Fred, George, Mundungus, Fleur, Hermione, and Ron take a sip of the Polyjuice Potion and transform into the six Potters]

Wow, we're identical!

Moody

Not yet, you're not.

[All seven, including the real Harry, put on the same clothes]

Haven't got anything a bit more sporting, have you?

Yeah, I don't really fancy this color.

Moody

Well, fancy this, you're not you. So shut it and strip.

Mundungus

All right, all right.

Moody
[to Harry]

You'll need to change too, Potter.

Fleur
[while undressing]

Bill, look away. I'm hideous.

Ron

I knew she was lying about that tattoo.

[putting on Harry's glasses]

Harry, your eyesight really is awful.

Moody

Right, then. We'll be pairing off. Each Potter will have a protector. Mundungus, stick tight to me. I wanna keep an eye on ya. As for Harry...

Everyone

Yes?

Moody

The real Harry. Where the devil are you, anyway?

[steps in]

Here.

Moody

You'll ride with Hagrid.

Hagrid
[to Harry]

I brought you here 16 years ago when you were no bigger than a Bowtruckle. Seems only right that I should be the one to take you away now.
