I demand that you leave at once, sir! You are breaking and entering!
Dry up, Dursley, yeh great prune.
Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts. Of course, you know all about Hogwarts.
Aunt Petunia Of course we knew! How could you not be, my perfect sister being what she was? Oh, she got a letter just like that and disappeared off to that - that school - and came home every vacation with her pockets full of frog spawn, turning teacups into rats! I was the only one who saw her for what she really was: a freak! But for my mother and father, oh no, it was Lily this and Lily that, they were proud of having a witch in the family! Then she met that Potter at school and they left and got married and had you, and of course I knew you'd be just the same, just as strange, just as - as - abnormal - and then, if you please, she went and got herself blown up and we got landed with you!
Blown up? You told me they died in a car crash!
A CAR CRASH?! A car crash kill Lily an' James Potter?! It's an outrage! It's a scandal!
You're a great wizard, Harry, you really are.
Me? Books and cleverness... There are more important things, like friendship and bravery. And Harry - just be careful.
Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville has lost one. [sees Ron attempting magic] Oh, you're doing magic? Let's see then.
Sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid, fat rat yellow.
Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, not very good is it? Of course I've only tried a few simple ones myself, but they've all worked for me. For Example, [sits in front of Harry] Oculus Reparo [waves wand]
That's better, isn't it. Holy cricket, you're Harry Potter! I'm Hermione Granger and... you are?
[muffled]
I'm Ron Weasley.
Pleasure. You two better change into robes, I expect we'll be arriving soon. [leaves, but turns around to face Ron] You've got dirt on your nose, by the way... Did you know? Just there...
Now I'm going to bed before either of you come up with another brilliant idea to get us killed... or worse... EXPELLED.
She needs to sort out her priorities.
So it's true then. What they're saying on the train. Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts. This is Crabbe, and Goyle. And I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy.
[Ron s****]
You think my name's funny do you? No need to ask for yours. Red hair, and a hand me down robe. You must be a Weasley. You'll soon find out some wizarding families are better than others, Potter. You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there.
I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself, thanks.
Fred and George. They're beaters.
F Fred
Yeah. It's our job to make sure you don't get bloodied up too much!
F Fred
[to Harry about the dangers of Quidditch]
Don't worry. No one's died in years.
G George
Occasionally they'll go missing.
F Fred
But they'll turn up in a month or two!
I...can't be a wizard. I'm...just Harry. Just Harry.
Well 'Just Harry'...did you ever make anything happen? Something you couldn't explain when you were angry or...scared?
[Harry enters a dungeon to see a man standing in front of the Mirror of Erised-Only, it isn't Snape or Voldemort]
You. No, it can't-it can't be. Snape, he was-he was the one who--
Q Quirrell
Yes, Snape. He does seem the type, doesn't he? Next to him, who would suspect p-p-p-poor st-st-st-stuttering Professor Quirrell?
But that day, during the Quidditch Match, Snape tried to kill me.
Q Quirrell
No, dear boy. I tried to kill you! And believe me, if Snape's cloak hadn't caught fire and broken my eye contact, I would have succeeded. Even with Snape muttering his little counter-curse.
Snape was trying to save me?
Q Quirrell
I knew you were a danger to me right from the off. Especially after Halloween.
Th-th-then you let the troll in!
Q Quirrell
Very good, Potter, yes. Snape, unfortunately, wasn't fooled. While everyone else was running about the dungeons, he went to the third to head me off. He, of course, never trusted me again. But he doesn't understand. I'm never alone. Never. Now, what does this mirror do? I see what I desire. I see myself holding the stone. But how do I get it?
Q Quirrell
Come here, Potter! Now!
Q Quirrell
[Harry walks to Quirrell and the Mirror of Erised]
Now... tell me. What do you see?
Q Quirrell
[Harry sees his reflection take out the Philosopher's Stone, then places it into his pocket. He realizes that it truly IS in his pocket.]
What is it? What do you see?
I'm shaking hands with Dumbledore. I've won the House Cup.
Q Quirrell
Tell the truth! WHAT DO YOU SEE?!
V Voice
Let me speak to him.
Q Quirrell
Master, you are not strong enough.
V Voice
I have strength enough for thisssssss.
V Voldemort
[Quirrell unwraps his turban, revealing a hideous face on the back of his head-Voldemort]
Harry Potter. We meet again.
V Voldemort
Yes. You see what I've become? See what I must do to survive? Live off another, a mere parasite. Unicorn blood can sustain me, but it cannot give me a body of my own. But there is something that can. Something that, conviently enough, lies in your pocket.
V Voldemort
[Harry attempts to escape.]
Stop him!
V Voldemort
[Quirrell blocks Harry by snapping his fingers, causing flames to block off every exit.]
Don't be a fool. Why suffer an horrific death when you can join me and live?
V Voldemort
[Laughs]
Bravery. Your parents had it, too. Tell me, Harry, do you wish to see your mother and father again? [Harry's parents appear in the Mirror of Erised] Together, we can bring them back. All I ask is for something in return.
V Voldemort
[Harry pulls the stone out of his pocket.]
That's it, Harry. There is no good and evil. There is only power. And those too weak to seek it. Together, we'll do extraordinary things. Just give me the stone! [Harry's parents disappear from the mirror.]
Q Quirrell
What is this magic?
V Voldemort
You fool! Get the stone!
It's going to be weird going home...isn't it.
[Looking back at Hogwarts smiling]
I'm not going home...not really.
Aunt Petunia [as the lights turn on]
Up! Get up! [knocks on the cupboard door and sighs] Now! [walks to the kitchen]
[Harry turns the lamp on and puts his glasses on. An excited Dudley runs down the stairs. He stops, runs back up the stairs, jumping up and down on them.] [Harry looks up and sees dust falls.]
Wake up, cousin! We're going to the zoo!
Aunt Petunia [Harry gets up off his bed. Dudley runs back down the stairs, laughing. As Harry opens the cupboard door, Dudley shoves him and closes the door.] [Harry opens the door and walks to the kitchen.]
Oh, here he comes, the birthday boy!
Aunt Petunia Why don't you just cook the breakfast, and try not to burn anything.
Aunt Petunia [closes Dudley's eyes]
I want everything to be perfect for my Dudley's special day! [Harry brings the frying pan and tries to hold the bacon with a spatula.]
Hurry up! Bring my coffee, boy!
Aunt Petunia [opens Dudley's eyes, who sees many presents]
Aren't they wonderful, darling?
[about his gifts]
How many are there?
36!? But last year, last year I had 37!
[stammers]
Yes, well, some are quite a bit bigger than last year's.
I don't care how big they are!
Aunt Petunia Oh, now, now, now, this is what we're going to do. Is that when we go out, we're going to buy you two new presents. How's that, pumpkin?
[Dudley and Vernon are banging on the glass at a snake habitat at the reptile house in the zoo]
Make it move.
[banging hard on the glass]
MOVE!!!!
He's boring. [The Dursleys leave the snake habitat.]
[to the snake]
Sorry about him. He doesn't understand what it's like, lying there day after day, watching people press their ugly faces in on you. [The snake looks straight at Harry.] Can you hear me? [the snake nods] It's just… I've never talked to a snake before. Do you… I mean… Do you talk to people often? [the snake shakes his head] You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there? Did you miss your family? [The snake indicates a sign with his head saying "Bred in captivity".] I see. But that's me as well. I never knew my parents, either.
[rushing over and shoving Harry out of the way]
Mummy, Dad, come here; you won't believe what this snake is doing! [Harry looks at Dudley, the entire pane of glass vanishes; Dudley stumbles and falls in the water] Whoa! Whoa! Ah!
[The snake slithers out and looks at Harry]
Thankssss.
M Man
[The snake makes his escape, heading for the door]
SNAKE!
[The crowd panics. Dudley gets up, but panics when he finds the glass has reappeared]
MUMMY!! MUMMY!! [Petunia notices him and screams in horror] MUM, HELP ME!! HELP ME!!
Aunt Petunia My darling boy! How did you get in there! Who did this?! [Harry chuckles] How did you get in there? Is there a… Is there a snake? [Vernon glares at Harry]
[The Dursleys and Harry are now in a shack in the middle of the ocean; Someone begins banging on the door as if to knock it in] [nervously, wielding a double-barrelled shotgun]
Who's there?
[The door breaks off its hinges and an enormous, towering man steps inside. It is none other than the man who brought Harry to the Dursleys, the Hogwarts gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid] [pleasantly]
Sorry 'bout that. [Picks the door up and puts it back upright in its hole]
I demand that you leave at once, sir! You are breaking and entering!
[contemptuously]
Dry up, Dursley, you great prune. [grabs the shotgun by its barrels with one hand and bends the barrels upwards; Vernon fires into the ceiling. Hagrid looks at Dudley] Well, I haven't seen you since you was a baby, Harry, but you're a bit more along then I would have expected; particularly 'round the middle.
I'm not... I'm not Harry.
Well of course you are! Got somethin' for yer. [Gives Harry a box] 'fraid I might have sat on it at some point but I imagine it'll taste fine just the same. Baked it myself, words and all.
Thank you! [Harry opens the box to reveal a small cake with pink icing and the words "HAPPEE BIRTHDAE HARRY" written in green]
It's not everyday your young man turns 11, now is it?
Excuse me, but, who are you?
Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts. Of course, you know all about Hogwarts.
No? Blimey, Harry, did you ever wonder where your Mum and Dad learned it all?
A wizard! And a thumpin' good 'un, I'd wager, once you've been trained up a bit.
I think you've made a mistake. I mean, I... can't be a... a wizard. I mean, I'm... just... Harry. Just Harry.
Well, "Just Harry"... did you ever make anything happen? Anything you couldn't explain when you were angry or scared?
[Hagrid pulls a letter from his pocket and hands it to Harry; he reads the letter]
"Dear Mr. Potter, we are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry".
[adamantly]
He will not be going! We swore when we took him in that we would put a stop to all of this rubbish!
[to the Dursleys; angrily after Vernon refuses Harry's entrance to Hogwarts because they swore when they took him in to "put a stop to all this rubbish"]
You knew!? You knew all along, and you never told me!?
Aunt Petunia [bitterly]
Of course we knew. How could you not be? My perfect sister being what she was. My mother and father were so proud the day she got her letter. "We have a witch in the family. Isn't it wonderful?" I was the only one who saw her for what she was: a freak! And then she met that Potter, and she had you, and I knew you'd be the same. Just as strange, just as... abnormal. And then, if you please, she went and got herself blown up, and we got landed with you.
"Blown up"? You told me my parents died in a car crash!
[shocked and angry]
A car crash?! A car crash killed Lily and James Potter?!
Aunt Petunia [sheepishly]
We had to say something...
It's an outrage! It's a scandal!
[somewhat amused]
Oh, and I suppose a great Muggle like yourself's going to stop him, are ya?
Non-magic folk. [to the Dursleys, angrily] This boy's had his name down ever since he was born! He's going to the finest school of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the world, and he'll be under the finest headmaster that Hogwarts has ever seen: Albus Dumbledore. [In the meantime, Hagrid is unaware of Dudley stealing the cake he made for Harry]
I will not pay to have some crackpot old fool teach him magic tricks!
[Visibly angered, Hagrid whips out his umbrella and points it threateningly at Uncle Vernon.]
Never... insult Albus Dumbledore... in front of me. [Hagrid sees Dudley eating Harry's cake and points his umbrella at him. A pig's tail appears on Dudley's bottom. The Dursleys scream and run out of the room] I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone at Hogwarts about that. Strictly speakin', I'm not supposed to do magic.
We're a bit behind schedule. Best be off. Unless you'd rather stay, a'course.
