Dumbledore
I should have known that you would be here.... Professor McGonagall.
McGonagall
Good evening, Professor Dumbledore. Are the rumours true, Albus?
Dumbledore
I'm afraid so, Professor. The good and the bad.
McGonagall
And the boy?
Dumbledore
Hagrid is bringing him.
McGonagall
Do you think it wise to trust Hagrid with something as important as this?
Dumbledore
Ah, Professor. I would trust Hagrid with my life.
Hagrid
Professor Dumbledore, sir. Professor McGonagall.
Dumbledore
No problems, I trust, Hagrid?
Hagrid
No, sir. Little tyke fell asleep just as we were flying over Bristol. [hands Dumbledore a bundle – Harry] Try not to wake him. There you go.
McGonagall
Albus, do you really think it's safe, leaving him with these people? I have watched them all day, they're the worst sort of... Muggles imaginable. They really are–
Dumbledore
The only family he has.
McGonagall
This boy will be famous! There won't be a child in our world that doesn't know his name!
Dumbledore
Exactly. He's far better off growing up away from all of that... until he is ready. [Dumbledore places Harry on the doorstep. Hagrid snivels.] There, there, Hagrid. It's not really goodbye, after all. [Hagrid nods. Dumbledore places a letter on Harry.] Good luck, Harry Potter.
