Turn to Page 117, The Dark Mark. Today’s lesson is called Chaos at the Campsite The chapter begins with the walk back from the match to the tent. Everyone is excited and stays up talking a play-by-play until finally they go to bed. During the night, Mr. Weasley wakes everyone up urgently, and there are shouts outside. He organizes the kids to stay together and flee to the woods as Mr. Weasley, Bill, Charlie, and Percy go to help the ministry to deal with a crowd of Death Eaters who are torturing muggles and destroying the campsite. Ron, Harry and Hermione come across Draco - who implies his parents might be two of the Death Eaters, while Harry realizes he does not have his wand. They find several other strange scenes including: entranced wizards lying to Veela, Winky the house-elf scared and rambling, and Ludo Bagman alone and unaware. Finally, they hear a single incantation that creates a giant skull in the sky, as Ministry Officials immediately apparate and stun the area. Mr. Crouch is especially unsettled when Winky is found at the scene while Mr. Diggory conducts an uncoordinated interrogation. Winky was found to have a wand - Harry’s wand - which cast the Dark Mark. Mr. Crouch tells Winky that he will be released from the Crouch family, and the scene disbands. Eventually, they make it back to the tent and fall back to sleep. Music: Pooka by Kevin MacLeod #MagicalTheory #HarryPotter #podcast #WizardPhD ✨Like the podcast?

Lesson 4-9: Chaos at the Campsite, and The Dark Mark

Turn to Page 95, The Quidditch World Cup. Today’s lesson is called As Good As It Gets The chapter begins with Harry, Hermione, and the Weasleys arriving at the stadium and taking the stairs up to their seats in the top box. They take in the sights and sounds, and meet the people nearby them - including Winky, Mr. Crouch’s house-elf, who is saving him a seat. They meet Fudge, the Minister for Magic, and see the Malfoys, who unsurprisingly act horribly to them. The Bulgarians and the Irish mascots - Veela and Leprechauns - perform for the crowd before the teams are introduced. Krum is very young but absolutely fantastic on the broomstick. As the game starts, however, it becomes clear that Ireland is significantly better than the Bulgarians. Eventually, the Irish are up by over 150 points, but Krum still catches the snitch, just to get it over with. The match ends, and our friends get an up-close look at the teams as they come through the top box to be honored. The chapter ends with Fred and George requesting their winnings from Ludo Bagman.

Lesson 4-8: As Good As It Gets, and The Quidditch World Cup

Turn to Page 75, Bagman and Crouch. Today’s lesson is called Wide, Wide, World The chapter begins with Harry, Hermione, the Weasleys, and the Diggorys arriving at the quidditch world cup. They check-in at their campsite, arrive at their tent, and Mr. Weasley insists on going it the Muggle way. Harry & Hermione help him assemble the tent and start the fire. Our trio gather water from a tap, and on the walk there and back see all sorts of witches and wizards, and even some that they know! At the campsite, Ludo Bagman arrives boisterously and has a chat from his spot on the grass. He’s enjoying himself to no end and has even begun taking bets on the game - a proposition that the twins take him up on. Barty Crouch comes by, the opposite of Bagman and insists that Bagman not share the other secret before its time.

Lesson 4-7: Wide, Wide, World, and Bagman and Crouch

Turn to Page 65, The Portkey. Today’s lesson is called From Here to There The chapter begins with Harry, Ron and the twins being awoken by Mrs Weasley, early in the morning. They need to prepare to leave for the Quidditch World Cup! Hermione and Ginny are joining them, but Percy, Charlie, and Bill get to sleep in because they will apparate later. On their walk to their destination, Mr. Weasley tells Harry about the process of getting 100,000 wizards to the Quidditch World Cup without breaking the statute of secrecy. They are to take a portkey, which is a mundane object that teleports people on a predetermined schedule. They spread out to search for it, but a new voice belonging to Mr. Amos Diggory calls out that they’ve found it. Harry meets Mr. Diggory and sees his son, and their schoolmate, Cedric.

Lesson 4-6: From Here To There, and The Portkey

Turn to Page 50, Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes. Today’s lesson is called When Harry Met Bill & Charlie The chapter begins with Harry popping out of the fireplace and into the Burrow. Fred and George ask research questions about their Ton-Tongue Toffee, as Mr. Weasley arrives and lectures them on muggle-wizard relations. Harry meets Bill & Charlie, and Mrs. Weasley insists that the twins’ work on joke magic should stop. Harry reconnects with Ron, Hermione, and Ginny, and they see Percy working away at his new job at the Ministry, begging for quiet. Life at the Burrows is crowded but comfortable, enough that Harry essentially forgets about his scar hurting and his letter to Sirius. The Quidditch World Cup looms, as does some other event that Percy drops hints about. Music: Pooka by Kevin MacLeod #MagicalTheory #HarryPotter #podcast #WizardPhD ✨Like the podcast?

Lesson 4-5: When Harry Met Bill & Charlie, and Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes

Turn to Page 39, Back to the Burrow. Today’s lesson is called When Worlds Collide The chapter begins with Harry and his family waiting for the Weasleys to arrive, to take Harry to their home for the rest of the summer. Vernon and Petunia are ready to judge, but Dudley is scared to relive the trauma of a pig’s tail. Their judgement begins before they even arrive, however, as the Weasleys are late -- until there is noise from the fireplace, as several of them pile-up behind the Dursley’s electric grate. Mr. Arthur Weasley magicks away the grate and out spill Fred, George, and Ron, as well as a cloud of ash and dust. As Mr. Weasley tries to make small talk with the Dursleys, the twins run off to collect Harry’s things. A few awkward minutes later, and Ron and the Twins go back through the fireplace, but not before spilling some sweets into the room - one of which Harry’s cousin consumes just before he is going to go through the floo network himself. Dudley’s tongue has grown too large for his mouth, and although Mr. Weasley is trying to help, the Dursleys are panicked.

Lesson 4-4: When Worlds Collide, and Back to the Burrow

Turn to Page 26, The Invitation. Today’s lesson is called Grapefruit and Games The chapter begins with Harry at the breakfast table with the Dursleys. The relationship between Harry and his family has changed slightly, as Harry is able to strategically use his relationship with known mass-murderer Sirius Black to affect his Uncle. This comes in handy when a piece of mail, covered in stamps, arrives from Mrs. Molly Weasley. She invites Harry to come stay with her family for the final two weeks of summer, in part to attend the Quidditch World Cup! Harry notes that he will be writing to Sirius, and this causes Uncle Vernon to relent and allow Harry to go. Harry returns to his room, jubilant, and finds Ron’s owl Pigwidgeon, bolting about with a letter from Ron declaring they are coming to get Harry no matter what. Harry responds with Pig, and finishes his note to Sirius with Hedwig, letting him know where he’s going to be.

Lesson 4-3: Grapefruit and Games, and The Invitation

The chapter begins with Harry waking up, his scar searing and losing the clarity of the nightmare that woke him. Voldemort and Wormtail were discussing plans, and a third stranger was present and may have died. Harry wasn’t sure if the dream was real or not, but his first worry is that Voldemort is near to him again, as that was the last time his scar had hurt. Harry calms himself by thinking about who he should tell about this experience: Hermione, Ron, Dumbledore? Finally, he remembers that his newly free godfather, Sirius Black, would be the perfect confidant. Harry scratches out a letter to Sirius and tries to fall back asleep.

Lesson 4-2: The Interpretation of Dreams, and The Scar

The chapter begins in a new place, Little Hangleton: a sleepy town with a spooky story. The Riddle family mansion on the hill was the site of a grizzly triple murder 50 years ago. The elder Mr. and Mrs. Riddle and their only son, clearly murdered in their house - yet police found no evidence of murder at all - it was as if they simply dropped dead of fear. The prime suspect was Frank Bryce, a young man who tended the grounds, and although the town remained convinced over the 50 years that he was guilty, Frank remained loyal to the property and maintained it into his late 70s, when, one night, he saw a fire burning up in the house at night. He went to investigate only to find it was set in the grate and two men appeared to be speaking back and forth in front of it, using words and phrases he did not understand. He did understand, however, that these men had killed and were planning to kill again - and he needed to warn Harry Potter. He never got the chance to warn Mr. Potter, though, because a great snake, Nagini, slithered up and he was spotted, and murdered.

Lesson 4-1: The Snake of Things to Come, and The Riddle House

The chapter begins with Harry and Hermione rushing back to the hospital wing, to find Dumbledore waiting for them. He locks them in as an alibi for when Snape and Fudge storm back down after finding Sirius Black had escaped. Snape is completely furious, and spends the rest of the school year somehow being even worse to Harry. The dark cloud of the Dementors lifts over the castle, but Lupin resigns his post after Snape lets his werewolf condition slip. Dumbledore assures Harry that his actions surrounding Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black were incredibly important. The end of the year comes and Gryffindor is house champion. Harry dreads his return to the Dursley’s, especially in light of the brief hope he’d live with Sirius. On the Hogwarts Express, an owl arrives with a letter from Sirius, giving Harry permission to visit Hogsmeade and admitting to having bought the Firebolt.

Lesson 3-22: Grim Ending, and Owl Post Again

The chapter begins with Harry coming to consciousness in the Hospital wing, overhearing Snape and Minister Fudge discussing the events of that evening. Madam Pomfrey notices Harry and Hermione awake and resumes their active care, but Harry urgently shares the true story of the night with the Minister, who dismisses him for Snape’s version. Dumbledore arrives and dismisses the other adults, insisting on talking to Harry and Hermione alone. Dumbledore has heard out Sirius Black, and his story is the same as Harry and Hermione, but Dumbledore knows it won’t stand up to scrutiny. Instead, they must act instead of tell, and he instructs Hermione on three turns, the location of Sirius Black, and that they might save more than one innocent life. He leaves unceremoniously. Hermione pulls out her time-turner, and uses it on herself and Harry. They go three hours into the past, and relive the night from another perspective. They save Buckbeak, watch the events at the Whomping Willow, and prepare to save Sirius. Harry fights with his hope to see his father, who he believes conjured the patronus that saved them. When, at the moment of reckoning his father does not show up, Harry realizes he saved himself and casts a corporeal patronus in the shape of a Stag, Prongs. They then fly up to Sirius, who flies away on Buckbeak. Music: The Curious Kitten by Aaron Kenny #MagicalTheory #HarryPotter #podcast #WizardPhD ✨Like the podcast?

Lesson 3-21: The Ghosts of Our Fathers, and Hermione’s Secret

The chapter begins with the slow trek back through the tunnel connecting the Shrieking Shack and the Whomping Willow. Most of the attention is simply on being able to move with an unconscious Snape, an injured Ron, and a dangerous Pettigrew. Harry and Sirius do have an important conversation about living together when Sirius is exonerated. Harry is jubilant as they exit the tree, only to quickly become terrified as Lupin transforms into a Werewolf. Sirius transforms into his dog form to fight and distract Lupin, and Pettigrew transforms into a rat and escapes again. Ron is petrified on the ground, and Harry and Hermione run to help a yelping Sirius, who turns back into his Human form and is under siege by the Dementors. They try to save him with the Patronus charm, before eventually succumbing to the Dementors’ effect and being subjected to the Dementors’ kiss. Just before all is lost, a powerful Patronus charm rolls through the clearing. Music: The Curious Kitten by Aaron Kenny #MagicalTheory #HarryPotter #podcast #WizardPhD ✨Like the podcast?

Lesson 3-20: Shooting Star, Full Moon, and The Dementor’s Kiss

The chapter begins with Snape interrupting Lupin’s story, triumphant that he has caught Black and Lupin. Our trio, now desperate to hear the story in its entirety, attack the deranged Snape - who is planning to deliver Sirius and Lupin straight to the Dementors - and incapacitate him. Lupin and Black continue the story, including how Black recognized Wormtail in the Weasley’s Egypt photo. Sirius claims that Wormtail cut his own finger off as he killed those muggles and framed Sirius. He was terrified that Wormtail was positioned perfectly to attack and betray Harry at an opportune time. He broke out of Azkaban by transforming into his Padfoot form and slipping by the Dementors. When he arrived at Hogwarts, he befriended Crookshanks, who understood there was more to both Padfoot and Wormtail. In final proof, Sirius and Lupin turn Wormtail back into Peter Pettigrew, Harry’s father’s old friend, and the true betrayer of Harry’s family to Voldemort. It turns out that Wormtail was hiding from the Death Eaters, not from Sirius. The Death Eaters built conspiracies around Wormtail having given Voldemort information about the Potters’ whereabouts and then meeting his demise. Sirius and Lupin, having convinced Harry at last, prepare to kill Pettigrew, before Harry intervenes. He insists that Pettigrew be captured and taken alive, to spare his father’s friends the pain of murder and to help clear Sirius’ name.

Lesson 3-19: The Price of Loyalty, and The Servant of Lord Voldemort

The chapter begins with our trio thinking Lupin is out of his mind. He tries to calm them and Sirius Black down, so he can tell them how it is possible that Scabbers is actually Peter Pettigrew. He begins the story by describing his experiences as a young child bitten by a werewolf. When Dumbledore became headmaster at Hogwarts, he extended an invitation to Lupin to join. To alleviate the risk Lupin harmed anyone during his transformation, Dumbledore planted the Whomping Willow and created the tunnel to the Shrieking Shack, where Lupin was placed before he transformed and remained until he was back to human. Lupin made friends at Hogwarts: Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew, and James Potter. And they discovered what was happening to him and learned how to transform, each as a different Animagus to accompany their friend during his werewolf transformations. Just as Lupin got to telling the group about how Snape distrusted Lupin even now, after having been rescued from an attack, Snape reveals himself.

Lesson 3-18: Unintended Consequences, and Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs

The chapter begins with our trio coping with Buckbeak’s execution and the surprising return of Scabbers. Just as they are trying to return to the castle, however, Crookshanks appears and harasses Scabbers, who struggles to escape Ron’s grip. A massive dog arrives and also lunges after Ron, pulling him and Scabbers into the Whomping Willow. Crookshanks helps Harry and Hermione by subduing the tree and allowing them to follow after the dog. After passing through a long tunnel, they arrive in the Shrieking Shack, to find that the dog was actually Sirius Black. Weakened and delirious, Sirius still manages to disarm Harry and Hermione, but fails to defend himself from Harry simply physically attacking him. Eventually, a disarmed Sirius lies helplessly, with Crookshanks guarding him. Harry precariously hangs on the edge of murder before Professor Lupin arrives. In only a few moments, however, our trio is shocked to see that Lupin, a werewolf, lifts Sirius up and embraces him. Harry is shocked and furious, but Lupin manages to begin revealing the truth of what has been happening, finally claiming that Scabbers is, in fact, Peter Pettigrew.
