Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Harry: I can't let you out, Hedwig. I'm not allowed to use magic outside of school. Besides, if Uncle Vernon... Vernon: [off-screen] Harry Potter! Harry: Now you've done it. Petunia: [making a cake as Harry enters] He's in there. Vernon? Vernon: I'm warning you. If you can't control that bloody bird, it'll have to go. Harry: But she's bored. If I could only let her out for an hour or two. Vernon: [laughs] So you can send secret messages to your freaky little friends? No, sir. Harry: But I haven't had any messages from any of my friends. Not one, all summer. Dudley: Who would want to be friends with you? [bumps Harry harshly] Vernon: I should think you'd be a little more grateful. We've raised you since you were a baby, given you the food off our table, even let you have Dudley's second bedroom, purely out of the goodness of our hearts. Petunia: Not now, bumpkins. It's for when the Masons arrive. Vernon: Which should be any minute. [motions for his family to come over] Now, let's go ove

Ron: Hiya, Harry! Harry: [surprised] Ron, Fred, George, what are you all doing here? Ron: Rescuing you, of course. Now come on, get your trunk. [Harry quickly dresses out of his pajamas and packs up his luggage; Ron puts a hook on the barred window] You'd better stand back. [to the twins] Let's go! Petunia: [startled] Oh! Vernon, what was it?! Vernon: Now what the hell's he doing? [angrily yelling offscreen as Harry starts putting his luggage in the car's trunk] POTTER!!! [turns on the hallway light and starts unlocking the locks on Harry's door] Dudley: Dad, what's going on?! [he and his mother hug each other, tightly] George: Go, go, go, go! Dudley: Dad, hurry up! [Camera shows Vernon unlocking the locks on the door on Harry's door] Ron: [as Harry gives him Hedwig] Come on. Fred: Come on. Ron: Come on, Harry, hurry up! Vernon: [bursts the door open and sees Harry about to make his escape; alarmed] PETUNIA, HE'S ESCAPING! [runs after Harry and grabs him by the ankle as he leaps out th

Ron: It's not much, but it's home. Harry: 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. Harry: [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:

Malfoy: 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! Lucius Malfoy: [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. Harry: [firmly] Voldemort killed my parents. He was nothing more than a murderer. Lucius Malfoy: Hmm. You must be very brave to mention his name. Or very foolish. Hermione: [Indirectly quoting Dumbledore] Fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself. Lucius Malfoy: And you must be Miss Granger. Yes, Draco's told me all about you... and your parents.

Snape: [furiously] You were seen! By no less than seven Muggles! [Throws down the newspaper and glares at Harry and Ron] Do you have any idea how serious this is?! You have risked the exposure of our world! Not to mention the damage you inflicted on a Whomping Willow that's been on these grounds since before you were born! Ron: Honestly, Professor Snape, I think it did more damage to us. Snape: Silence! I assure you that were you in Slytherin and your fate rested with me, the both of you would be on the train home! Tonight! As it is-- Dumbledore: [appearing with Professor McGonagall] They are not. Harry: Professor Dumbledore. Professor McGonagall. Snape: Headmaster... [points to Harry and Ron] these boys have flouted the Decree for the Restriction of Underage Wizardry. As such-- Dumbledore: I am well aware of our bylaws, Severus, having written quite a few of them myself. However, as head of Gryffindor House, it is for Professor McGonagall to determine the appropriate action. Ron: We'l
