0:37

the real weird sisters, please

0:39

0:41

a problem here. We're the

0:43

weird sisters, we're the real

0:46

weird sisters, all you are

0:48

the weird sisters, all you

0:50

are the weird sisters, but

0:52

fine, but not the victors,

0:54

will the real weird sisters,

0:56

please stand up? Hi

0:59

and welcome to The Real Weird

1:01

Sisters. I'm Martha. And I'm Alice. And

1:03

today we're here to talk about the

1:06

119th page of Harry Potter and the

1:08

Prisoner of Askeban. Just a little bit

1:11

fixing it up a little bit. You might

1:13

be thinking, what is happening? And if you

1:15

are, then you are not alone, because this

1:17

is our first one page at a time,

1:19

and we're going to go into what this

1:21

idea is and what the format's going to

1:23

be, and why we're doing it. Don't worry.

1:25

All of this will be covered in good

1:27

time. And the time is now, because I

1:29

don't really know what else we'd be doing,

1:31

first of all, on the podcast, unless you

1:33

want to talk about microwaves or

1:36

something. The microwave minute we do

1:38

that every time on here. Yeah, no,

1:40

I think we can launch into what

1:42

is happening. So Martha, this is Martha's

1:44

great idea. So let's start with you

1:46

sharing with us what you've come up

1:49

with and what we're going to be

1:51

trying now as a new form of

1:53

our show. Yeah. So first of all, don't

1:55

worry. This is not like the new thing

1:57

we're going to always do. So if

1:59

you don't. like it, we might not

2:01

ever do it again, we'll see. We're

2:04

trying it out because as everybody knows,

2:06

we've been doing character studies, we've been

2:08

doing into the ponceves, we've been doing

2:10

take fives, but one day we will

2:12

reach the end of the character studies

2:15

and I don't know what we're

2:17

gonna do when that happens, except

2:19

for now we haven't know what

2:21

we were gonna do. But. Did

2:23

you know how is that there

2:25

are probably, I haven't counted, but

2:27

probably about, let me try to

2:29

quickly do some math, maybe like

2:31

4,000 to 5,000 pages. Yeah, yeah,

2:33

of Harry Potter. So this should

2:36

save us the worry of how

2:38

long we will keep going on

2:40

the podcast ever because if we

2:42

do one page at a time,

2:44

we're covered for the next, you

2:46

know, probably 30 to 40 years.

2:48

Yeah, true. So. This is your brainchild.

2:50

And it kind of sounds like one page

2:53

at a time we'd be going through in

2:55

chronological order, but we like to mix things

2:57

up here. Yeah, and the thing is we

2:59

already did go chronological order when we

3:01

did just the book club. And you

3:04

could always go back and re-listen to

3:06

the book club. And one of the

3:08

ideas we have talked about is just

3:10

starting over for the book club because

3:12

we would probably not. remember most

3:15

of what we talked about the first

3:17

time. But I've never really been a

3:19

huge fan of that idea, and so

3:21

I've been trying to think of other

3:23

things we could do besides that while

3:26

still revisiting the books, which is the

3:28

crux of what we love about the

3:30

series. We don't want to always focus

3:32

on the movies because they're just not

3:34

what we love. And I thought, you

3:37

know, it'd be fun to go one

3:39

page at a time, but kind of

3:41

mix it up by making it random.

3:43

real weird hunger games that we've done.

3:45

And I thought we could add that

3:47

to the mix and just randomly roll

3:50

a few dice and find out what

3:52

page we're gonna do each week and

3:54

do that every time instead of having

3:56

good, you know, we know these books.

3:58

It's not like we need the content.

4:00

text of what happened to get us

4:02

there. So like the page that we

4:04

ruled this week, we still knew what

4:06

was happening. It's not like I was

4:09

like, what is happening right now because

4:11

we've read these books so many times.

4:13

So we're going to do a dice

4:15

roll and this time we did it

4:18

off camera or off mic because obviously

4:20

you weren't listeners. you were privy to

4:22

knowing we were doing this, but in

4:24

the future, we will do it at

4:26

the end of the episode to find

4:29

out what our next page will be.

4:31

And four dice, first one is a

4:33

seven-sided die, which this is a virtual

4:35

day. What? There's eight books, the first

4:37

child. There's no chapters in the curse

4:39

child. So that, or I guess there

4:42

are page numbers. That doesn't know. Anyway,

4:44

we roll the first die, seven-sided die

4:46

virtually, or digital die, and. got the

4:48

book and for this one it

4:50

was book three and then we

4:53

rolled three more dice and they

4:55

were ten-sided dice or dice with

4:57

the ten meaning page zero or

4:59

like digit zero and obviously

5:01

if the first number was for

5:03

book three if the first number

5:05

was higher than four I just

5:08

re-rolled it until we got a

5:10

number that was four or lower

5:12

but it turned out that our

5:14

first dice roll landed us on

5:16

book three page 119. All right, so

5:18

what we're going to do on these

5:20

is we're going to talk through what

5:23

happens on that page, and then we're

5:25

going to have a variety of segments

5:27

that we'll do each week. And so

5:29

I don't want to spoil what they

5:31

all are, but I think they're going

5:33

to be very fun. A little bit

5:35

of a take-five kind of approach with

5:37

all the segments, but I also think

5:40

we'll be spending quite a bit of

5:42

time going through that what happens there.

5:44

I think that one thing that we're

5:46

known for is making a meal out

5:48

of these moments of the series and

5:51

I think that we're gonna do just

5:53

fine with filling up an hour talking

5:55

about a page of the series. Yeah,

5:57

exactly. So like you said, we're Our

6:00

first one is the third book,

6:02

page 119. And Martha rolled the

6:04

dice. I wasn't part of the

6:06

rolling this week, so I'm going to

6:08

just take you at your word that

6:10

you were honest about it. Yeah, because

6:12

if I had had a choice, I

6:15

probably would have picked 118, because what

6:17

I look at. these two pages side

6:19

to side, I kind of wish that

6:21

we were talking about 118, but I

6:23

can't, we can't even talk about 118,

6:26

because we will get there one day,

6:28

probably, maybe in like 40 years or

6:30

something. But 118 I have to say,

6:32

I think would have been a very

6:34

fun one to talk about. Well, 119

6:36

is going to be pretty fun too.

6:39

So we'll talk through what happened on

6:41

this page. So Martha, do you want

6:43

to just kind of go through

6:45

this? We're figuring this out chronologically

6:47

first. briefly, you know, give a

6:49

quick summary of what happened. And

6:51

I think it's easier to do

6:54

a quick, a brief summary of

6:56

a page versus five minutes of

6:58

the movie. But this is in

7:00

chapter six. So it's the, actually

7:02

the very first day at Hogwarts.

7:04

And it's right after Malfoy's been

7:06

slashed by Buckbeek. So it's basically,

7:08

it's a pretty dialogue heavy page.

7:10

It's Harry Ron and Hermione discussing

7:12

what's going to happen. And they're

7:15

pretty worried with Malfoy. and they

7:17

can see that the slitherins at

7:20

the, half of the chapter takes place

7:22

at the great hall for dinner and

7:24

the other, sorry, not the chapter, half

7:26

the page takes place at great

7:28

hall for dinner and the other half

7:30

is in the common room, both, it's

7:33

just basically the whole time

7:35

they're talking about what's gonna happen

7:37

to Hagred and at the end of

7:39

the page. Harry and Ron suggest going

7:41

to go see Hagred and of course

7:44

Hermione is a little bit uncertain about

7:46

whether they should do that, but that's

7:48

where it ends. Yeah. First of all,

7:50

I do want to comment on the

7:52

fact that like two locations in one

7:54

page is pretty interesting. We're not going

7:56

to get that every week. Yeah, well,

7:59

maybe we will. because this is the

8:01

thing we've never actually really looked at

8:03

it this way so maybe this is

8:05

typical maybe two locations is actually not

8:08

very much that's true yeah so

8:10

we'll see I mean that's not

8:12

gonna be one of our segments

8:14

location watch or anything but we

8:16

can kind of maybe just like

8:18

pay attention to that like how

8:20

often are we moving around within

8:22

one page right so anyway like

8:24

you said it's a lot of

8:26

dialogue about Hagrid there's there's quite

8:28

a bit of kind of classic Hermione,

8:30

classic Ron, just the way that

8:32

they're kind of stewing over this.

8:35

Hermione can hardly eat her steak

8:37

and kidney pudding. Yeah, it's not

8:39

classic Ron though because Ron isn't

8:42

eating either, so that's that's really

8:44

showing how dire the circumstances

8:46

are, because Ron's usually scarfing

8:48

up his food. Yeah, but

8:51

Hermione's very worried. Harry's a

8:53

little less, I mean... He's worried

8:55

about Hagrid. He's not worried about Malfoy

8:57

here, because her mind he's like, do

8:59

you think he'll be all right? And

9:01

Harry, course he will. Madam Pomfry can

9:03

mend cuts in about a second. Yeah,

9:06

so actually, let's just bring that one

9:08

up because one of the segments I

9:10

wanted to do was Humbel Brag of

9:12

the Week and I felt like this

9:14

was not something that he said, it's

9:17

something that the author says, but it

9:19

says that that line that you just

9:21

said said Harry who had had far

9:23

worse injuries mended magically by the nurse.

9:25

I felt like that was a huge

9:27

humble brag on Harry's part and I

9:30

feel like it deserves the title of

9:32

the first H-O-G-brag of the week. Yeah, I

9:34

think that that seems like the most

9:36

obvious humble brag of the week here.

9:38

But I guess another part, there's

9:40

a couple others. So a couple

9:42

others that could be a contender,

9:45

but I don't think that they really

9:47

compete with that. First of all, they

9:49

were among the first to reach the

9:51

Great Hall at dinner time. So, oh,

9:53

congrats to them. Now, they are trying

9:55

to, it does say that they're first

9:58

because they're hoping to see. But

10:00

yeah, wow, they must have really

10:02

raced. So actually, you're bringing that

10:04

up. That actually shows us there's not

10:06

two locations. There are three locations on

10:09

this page. First one is that they're

10:11

on the kind of walk to the

10:13

Great Hall. True, true. Yeah. And then

10:15

that's true. So that's one location.

10:17

That's one humble brag of the week.

10:20

And then another kind of contender could

10:22

be where they said, if we hurried,

10:24

we could go down and see him.

10:27

It's still quite early. Hmm. Yeah, you

10:29

better hurry though. You must be really

10:31

fast if you could reach him there.

10:34

at that time. No, I think

10:36

that those two are good honorable

10:38

mentions for Hubble Bragg of the

10:40

Week, but Harry, who had had

10:42

far worse injuries than magically by

10:44

the nurse, is definitely... I also

10:46

like how we refer to her

10:49

as the nurse. Well, I think

10:51

it's because this classic author fashion,

10:53

we'll be getting soon into all

10:55

the classic author moments, but we've

10:57

said Madame Palmfrey's name, but we

10:59

didn't remind us who Madame Palmfrey

11:02

is. cuts and then of course

11:04

we have the explanation who is

11:06

madam pom for oh the nurse

11:08

okay yeah he's had far worse

11:11

injuries ended magically by the nurse

11:13

Harry I mean it's true but

11:15

it's also like all right yeah I

11:17

think that the next we've kind of

11:20

mentioned classic author things. I think one

11:22

of the things we've talked about a

11:24

ton of the book club is

11:26

how the author loves to use adverbs.

11:29

So let's look at all the adverbs

11:31

that are used on this page and

11:33

decide on our favorite one. Maybe not

11:36

favorite as far as like best like

11:38

writing, best use of writing or

11:40

like best writing technique, but the

11:42

best like as far as makes

11:45

us. amused the most. Okay, so

11:47

first of all, Hermione says, do you

11:49

think he'll be all right? Nervously. So

11:51

there's our first adjective. And that's the

11:53

first line of the page. We do

11:55

have, I think most of the time

11:57

we're going to be looking at adverbs.

11:59

that are used in the way people say

12:02

things, because that's her favorite thing to do

12:04

is said so and so nervously or said

12:06

so and so anxiously. But we do have

12:08

another adverb in the next paragraph, which is

12:11

magically. I think that that we could just

12:13

rule out not gonna be adverb of the

12:15

week. Right. Then like I said, next one

12:17

is Hermine says something anxiously next. So we

12:20

have nervously than anxiously. Yeah, and

12:22

then we've got Ron saying

12:24

something gloomily. He says, well,

12:26

you can't say it wasn't

12:28

an interesting first day back,

12:30

said Ron gloomily. I feel

12:33

like that's kind of a

12:35

sitcommy line, like, you just

12:37

kind of like, well, that

12:39

just happened, kind of like.

12:41

And Ron is quite, I

12:43

mean, it's typical Ron in

12:46

the like breaking up detention

12:48

kind of thing. Yeah. I

12:50

think that this is my number

12:52

one contender so far gloomily. We

12:54

do have Harry says suddenly, which

12:57

kind of kind of a dark

12:59

horse here. I do kind of

13:01

like when Harry says things suddenly.

13:03

Yeah. But then we have Hermione

13:06

saying something slowly. Not not

13:08

too exciting. I think gloomily is

13:10

going to be the adverb of

13:12

the week. It's kind of sums

13:14

up the mood of this page

13:16

too of how they're just worried

13:18

about Hagrid. Yes. Yeah, they're quite,

13:20

almost everything that they're saying here

13:22

is kind of gloomy. Yeah, I

13:24

think gloomily is the best one

13:26

here. It's not the, it's not

13:28

a classic author adverb, like, of

13:31

course, I can't even think of

13:33

what are some of the classic

13:35

author adverbs. I don't know I

13:37

think as we go through we'll have to

13:39

see smoothly I feel like people say things

13:41

smoothly yeah and there's one that I always

13:44

I don't know why it's not coming to

13:46

me right now maybe it'll come to me

13:48

later but gloomily Ron has the adverb of

13:51

the week I think that's pretty good I

13:53

actually was gonna say looking at this page

13:55

this is not a segment I thought of

13:57

until now but I think a miss of the

13:59

week here is we didn't get any

14:02

comment about how it would

14:04

have been very easy to

14:06

see Hagrid. So like, you

14:08

know, something about like, Hagrid

14:10

usually stood out at the

14:12

staff table. So Hagrid's large

14:14

presence usually loomed over the

14:17

great hall. Exactly. I'm actually

14:19

shocked that there's nothing about

14:21

that. It just says that

14:23

they were hoping to see

14:25

Hagrid, but he wasn't there.

14:27

So I'm sorry that. the author

14:29

didn't fit in a little

14:32

burn on Hagred about how he

14:34

is, you know, Hagred, Hagred would

14:36

have been hard to miss or

14:39

something like that. Or yeah, or

14:41

Ron making a comment about like,

14:43

there's an empty, large space

14:46

or something like that. Yeah, so

14:48

missed opportunity of the week was

14:50

to get a get a little

14:52

dig in at Hagred's size. Right,

14:55

exactly. Maybe actually it was a

14:57

good good job on the author

14:59

for missing that opportunity. Okay, so

15:01

speaking of the author, we try

15:04

not to talk about her too

15:06

much, but I do want to

15:08

kind of call it back to

15:11

take fives with kind of like.

15:13

This was a little, we have the

15:15

missed opportunity of the week, this is

15:17

kind of the miss of the week,

15:19

we can call it the, oh, Joe,

15:22

she didn't. Kind of like the Alfonso,

15:24

no, he didn't. Yeah, or would it

15:26

be better if it was Joe, no,

15:28

she didn't? No, I think, oh, Joe, she

15:30

didn't is good. Okay. Yeah. So,

15:32

I mean, honestly, this is a

15:35

pretty good page. I think it's

15:37

pretty dialogue heavy, like I said, like

15:39

I said, but, but, like I don't. I

15:45

mean, it's not like a huge miss

15:47

or anything, but I do

15:49

think that the line we

15:51

kind of criticized already about

15:53

the Madame Palmfrey and then

15:55

referring to her as the

15:57

nurse. Yeah, about it. I

16:00

think sometimes we're going to have way

16:02

more obvious ones than others. This one,

16:04

I don't see a lot of like

16:06

poor writing on this. Yeah, I think

16:09

you're right. Usually it's going to be

16:11

something that's poor writing. We do have

16:13

glance getting used twice in like a

16:15

glance. I think you yeah, glancing. We

16:18

have the three of them glancing out

16:20

the tower window and then Harry saw

16:22

her glance at him about Hermione. But

16:25

I also. I think that there's a

16:27

contender that's not really about the

16:29

author's writing. It's just the steak

16:31

and kidney pudding. Why do we

16:33

have to, oh, why are they

16:35

always eating steak and kitty pudding?

16:37

I thought of that too. I

16:39

was like, that honestly was in

16:41

my mind as one that seems

16:43

like one that's like very classic,

16:46

always there kind of a thing.

16:48

Yes. I will, just a, memory

16:50

that I have is that

16:52

I didn't know what's taking

16:54

kidney pudding, excuse me, staking

16:56

kidney pudding was until reading

16:58

the series is not really

17:00

a food that's often served

17:02

in the United States, but I

17:05

assumed, I mean I knew that pudding

17:07

was like could be like dinner, like

17:09

it didn't have to be like an

17:11

actual dessert pudding, like what we think

17:13

of as putting here. But I thought

17:15

it was kidney beans, and I thought

17:17

that that sounded kind of good, because

17:19

I used to really like kidney beans

17:21

for some reason. But then I learned that

17:23

it was kidneys. And I'm like, I get

17:26

that some, we eat organs and just

17:28

the concept of eating meat is weird

17:30

in general, but like, I don't like

17:32

referring to, I don't even like calling

17:34

it a chicken breast. So I don't

17:37

want to talk about kidney eating kidney.

17:39

Yeah, and honestly, it's one that I

17:41

always forget if it really is kidney

17:43

or if it's kidney beans. Like I

17:45

always back and forth with kidney. Yeah,

17:48

that definitely makes it less appealing to

17:50

me to call it that. Like I

17:52

said, I mean, and I know it's a

17:54

cultural thing and like in lots of

17:56

cultures, they'll eat organs like this

17:58

without thinking about. it's really not

18:01

any weirder than eating regular, what

18:03

we would consider regular meat here. But

18:05

yeah, just naming it that is

18:07

a little bit, not my fave. Yeah,

18:10

and I also, I know this is

18:12

pretty common, so it's not, again, not

18:14

on the author at all, but calling

18:17

it steak when apparently it's mainly made

18:19

with ground beef, that's always strange to

18:21

me. Or I guess it says it's

18:23

diced beef. Okay, that's weird too. I

18:26

really, I love a meat pie. Chicken

18:28

pot pie is delicious. I love a

18:30

pasty. Even like, yeah, a beef pot

18:33

pie is good. But I don't know,

18:35

I just can't get sold

18:37

on the steak and kidney

18:39

pie. And especially that it,

18:41

yeah, the pudding thing, I

18:44

mean, again, that's a language.

18:46

dialect thing, like we

18:48

don't say that in America

18:50

for a pie. I think

18:52

that they've called it steak

18:54

and kidney pie on, I

18:56

think that she's, they've eaten

18:58

steak and kidney pie too. Yeah.

19:00

Oh, but maybe it's two different

19:03

things actually. There's two

19:06

separate Wikipedia entries. Okay,

19:08

so what's the pudding?

19:10

The pudding pork or lamb kidney

19:13

are enclosed in suet pastry. and

19:15

slow steamed on a stove top.

19:17

And you know what so it

19:19

is, right? Well, I mean, I have

19:21

an idea, but what are you? It's

19:24

the raw hard fat of beef

19:26

lamb or mutton found around the

19:28

loins and kidneys. This picture of

19:30

so it on Wikipedia is kind

19:32

of like, I mean, that kind

19:34

of reminds me of like pie

19:36

crust, how it's like, yeah, but

19:39

yeah, so it's like a, the

19:41

picture on Wikipedia. I mean, honestly

19:43

the filling looks pretty good. But

19:45

the picture it's like a almost

19:47

like a little Like a ball filled

19:49

with meat ball of yeah, but it's

19:52

the pastry. So it's it's like yeah,

19:54

you're right you're right But it's now.

19:56

Yeah. It's not it's not served in

19:59

a pie dish It's like, yeah. Okay,

20:01

I don't know. I agree. I think maybe

20:03

we just, I don't know that, it's

20:05

a little bit of world building

20:07

in the sense of like we're

20:10

seeing what they eat, but having

20:12

that steak and kidney pudding, they

20:14

absolutely, I think maybe Hermione

20:16

was not touching the steak and

20:18

kidney pudding for other reasons than

20:21

being anxious. She's always eating it

20:23

though. That's. Okay. This is not

20:25

a segment that I identified previously,

20:28

but I do think any time

20:30

we have any kind of cuisine

20:32

on the page, it's kind of

20:35

interesting to world build a little

20:37

bit, like you said, to dive

20:39

into the, if we don't know

20:41

much about that food. I just

20:44

learned a lot about both these

20:46

foods, and that includes the nicknames

20:48

that are on the Wikipedia page

20:51

for steak and kidney pudding.

20:53

So, Kate and Sydney, like,

20:55

instead of steak and kidney, got

20:57

it. But then, this is the

21:00

weirdest one. In the slang of

21:02

the British Armed Forces and some

21:04

parts of Northwest England, the puddings

21:07

are called Babies Heads. Babies

21:09

Heads. Babies Heads? Yeah, but

21:11

it's spelled Babies. Like, I think

21:13

that's like the British, like, Babies.

21:16

Okay. Interesting. So, lots happening here

21:18

with the steak and kidney pudding.

21:20

So, is that our ro Joe

21:22

she didn't? I think so. And

21:25

it's also our lesson of the

21:27

week. We learned a lot about

21:29

British culture here. Yeah, and I

21:31

don't think there's going to be

21:34

a lesson of the week every

21:36

week. Well, I don't know. I

21:38

don't know. I don't know. I

21:40

don't know. A food lesson of

21:42

the week. A culinary lesson of

21:45

the week. Tim would be falling

21:47

asleep right now. Okay, well, I

21:49

purposely didn't put quora question of

21:51

the week into our list here,

21:54

because I just don't think that

21:56

we would. Some people are going

21:58

to be so sad. on this page.

22:00

And we're not gonna confirm it or

22:02

anything. Probably be something to do with

22:05

steak and kidney pudding, to be honest.

22:07

Okay, yeah, but maybe like why are

22:09

the characters in Harry Potter always eating

22:11

steak and kidney pudding? Yeah, or like,

22:14

yeah, just, yeah, something like that. I

22:16

mean, I do think that there's definitely

22:18

a possibility that there's a core question

22:20

about like, how seriously was Malfoi injured

22:22

by Buckbeek. Right, but that yeah,

22:25

that isn't necessarily a direct tie to

22:27

this page. Yeah, or you know, why was

22:29

Hagrid a bad teacher or something like that?

22:31

Like I think that there's probably

22:34

a core question similar to that.

22:36

Yeah, I think most of the rest of

22:38

it, like I said, it's pretty

22:40

much all dialogue, so it's kind

22:42

of we're not necessarily talking about

22:44

what happened, like action that's happening.

22:46

It's about something that just happened,

22:48

which is talking about Malfoi getting

22:51

slashed. Yeah, yeah. So I think

22:53

the next segment we're talking about

22:55

how this is in the super

22:57

action heavy scene is the question

22:59

of was it in the movie?

23:01

And I don't have a fun

23:03

title for this segment, but the

23:05

question is, was this page something

23:07

that happened in the movie or

23:09

not? And this one's kind of

23:11

a tricky one because I don't

23:13

think any of this specific dialogue

23:15

is in the movie. Obviously Alfonso

23:17

didn't borrow from the dialogue as

23:19

heavily as Christopher Columbus did.

23:21

Yeah, I don't think that this scene

23:23

is directly in the movie. I do

23:26

think there is obviously the discussion of

23:28

like, oh, poor Hagrid and what's going

23:30

to happen, but it's not exactly this.

23:33

And we don't see them, we don't

23:35

see them directly going to the Great

23:37

Hall and then up to the common

23:40

room, like that kind of thing. So

23:42

that's, yeah, it's not directly in

23:44

the movie. Yeah. And then the

23:46

kind of follow-up question is like,

23:48

like, should this have been in

23:51

the movie. I don't think it's

23:53

absolutely totally necessary. Like I think

23:55

this is an okay one to

23:57

condense into other scenes. I think

23:59

So too, I have to say

24:02

I'm kind of glad that they

24:04

didn't include any steak and kidney

24:06

pie in the movies. Or

24:08

pudding. Yeah, sorry, steak and

24:11

couldn't eat Babby's heads. There's

24:13

no Babby's heads. Or it'll

24:16

Kate and Sydney pudding.

24:18

Yeah, I do think that

24:20

they do visit Hagrid after.

24:22

Like in the evening after and then

24:24

that's not on this page, but there,

24:26

you know, the seeds are planted here

24:28

at the end of the page that

24:31

they're going to go visit Hagrad. All

24:33

right. Yeah, no, I mean, this isn't

24:35

something, this is kind of in the

24:37

middle ground of like, this wasn't like

24:39

totally cut or anything like that, but

24:42

it's not directly in the movie either.

24:44

Yeah, so the next question then sort

24:46

of follow up is the, I think

24:48

we'll call this the Hermines beaded bag.

24:51

getting ready to leave, Hermione chooses the

24:53

essentials, all the essential library of books

24:55

that she takes with us or with

24:57

them to put into her beaded bag.

25:00

Is she taking that she had to

25:02

make a lot of decisions of is

25:04

this worth taking with us on the

25:06

journey or do I not need to

25:08

take this with me? So is this

25:11

a page that we need to take

25:13

with us or could it kind of

25:15

be lifted out of this series

25:17

and we'd all be fine without it?

25:20

I think this is not

25:22

crucial. This is, this seems

25:24

like one, like we said,

25:27

it's important to see that

25:29

they're concerned about Hagrid. But

25:31

nothing on this page is like,

25:33

has to be right there or not.

25:35

So I would maybe say cut it. Yeah,

25:38

the only thing is, and this, I know

25:40

we're moving, breezing through these segments, but one

25:42

of the things I do want to talk

25:44

about is any of the literary devices that

25:47

are on this page, and there is a

25:49

little bit of foreshadowing from Hermione here of,

25:51

they wouldn't fire him, would they? So that

25:53

question is going to be kind of a

25:56

something that we're getting all book, and then

25:58

as well as like future. your books

26:00

with Hackney. Right, that's true. This is

26:02

the first time we're seeing, like, I

26:04

mean, I think right before that, like,

26:06

again, we're not talking about stuff

26:09

that happens on a previous page, but

26:11

like, there are, the Slytherins immediately leap

26:13

to, like, they should fire him, but

26:15

then we're getting into, would they actually

26:17

fire him? Is this something we need

26:20

to be worried about? Right. Yes, exactly.

26:22

So this is planting the seeds of

26:24

a question that's going to be, you

26:26

know, weighing on everybody's minds for the

26:28

rest of this book. And then, like

26:31

I said, also in future books. So

26:33

that's the one thing that I think

26:35

is most important on this page is

26:37

that question getting kind of planted in

26:39

their heads. And then the rest of

26:42

this is kind of, I mean, they're,

26:44

they're sort of just reacting to what's

26:46

happened. And then Hermione asking that question

26:48

does kind of get everything like, like,

26:50

like, like, like, like, like, The ball. I

26:53

think, I feel like, yeah, the ball

26:55

gets rolled. Kind of like the seed

26:57

is planted in our minds. Yeah, exactly.

26:59

As I was going to say, as

27:01

the reader, I feel like we didn't

27:03

really think about that happening

27:05

until Hermione says it. Yeah. And

27:07

seeing how worked up they are is

27:10

sweet to see that they care about

27:12

Hagred so much. Yes, it is. Yeah.

27:14

So. Speaking of foreshadowing, I wanted to

27:16

mention that, but I wanted to just,

27:19

you know, put our English teacher, English

27:21

major heads on here because, you know,

27:23

people really appreciate our goofiness, but

27:26

I know that they really appreciate

27:28

our expertise when it was literary

27:31

analysis too. So let's just discuss,

27:33

you know, just, there's a lot

27:35

of literary devices that could have

27:38

been used on this page and

27:40

were there any besides foreshadowing. I

27:42

think that. There's not any

27:45

obvious figurative language.

27:47

Let's start with that.

27:49

Yeah, I'm not seeing a

27:51

lot of other literary devices.

27:54

It's pretty dialogue heavy. Yeah.

27:56

There's, you know, some indirect

27:59

characterization. based on the way, like

28:01

I said, the fact that we're seeing

28:03

how much these characters do care about

28:05

Hagrid through the words that they're saying

28:08

and the fact that they're so anxious

28:10

about. We have a few, we do

28:12

have a few idioms, so we have,

28:14

when Harry is sure that crab and

28:16

goil were cooking up their own version

28:18

of how Malfo had been injured, they're

28:21

not literally cooking up something. I love

28:23

that because it just. conjures up this

28:25

like sinister vibe of the slitherins, which

28:27

is very accurate. It's funny, I mean,

28:29

I'm glad it doesn't say it's just

28:31

crab and goil who are cooking up their

28:33

own version of how Malphane injured because nobody

28:36

would believe that the two of them would

28:38

be cooking it up on their own. It's

28:40

just a large group including crab and goil.

28:42

True. I do think cooking up is an

28:45

idiom that people don't really think of as

28:47

figurative language very often, but it is. It

28:49

sure is. Yeah, no, I think

28:51

it, like I said, it's mainly

28:53

the dialogue, but we're, the most

28:55

important thing that we're getting from

28:57

it is how much the trio

28:59

cares about Hagrid and how much

29:01

anxiety this has provoked in them.

29:03

Yes. Oh, there is kind of

29:05

a flashback, the back to the humble

29:07

brag of the week, Harry having

29:10

far worse and injuries mended magically

29:12

by the nurse. That we could

29:14

call that a flashback in some

29:17

ways. Yeah, it is. Well, it's

29:19

a reminder of what's happened in

29:21

the series so far. And we

29:24

have a bit of irony from

29:26

Ron. You can't say it wasn't

29:28

an interesting day, first day back.

29:30

Yeah. Not seeing any kiosk, are

29:33

you? I don't remember what that

29:35

is. You don't? I just

29:37

Google's literary devices list and that's

29:39

one of the ones on it.

29:41

What is that? It's the literary

29:44

technique of taking two parallel clauses

29:46

and inverting the word order of

29:48

one to create a greater meaning. So

29:50

an example would be ask not what

29:52

your country can do for you, ask

29:54

what you can do for your country.

29:57

I'm not seeing any of those on

29:59

this page. Oh, here's another,

30:01

well, this is sort

30:03

of irony. Trust, Malfloy

30:05

to mess things up

30:07

for him. Yeah, exactly.

30:10

Any do sex, Makana?

30:12

I started Deus. I

30:14

don't think we're going

30:16

to get every literary

30:19

device ever on one

30:21

page. Okay. How about

30:23

Audomonipia? Um, no,

30:25

I don't. see any automata.

30:27

That's our favorite. Well, and

30:30

the author does enjoy automata

30:32

Pia. Yes, she does. I'm

30:34

kind of surprised there's no

30:36

automata Pia. Yeah. I don't

30:38

see any alliteration. Not this

30:40

time. That's not one of her

30:43

favorites except for names. Names, yeah.

30:45

Yeah. So one of my

30:47

like core memories of AP English

30:49

is we did this project here

30:52

every week. Well, it was like

30:54

each semester. each person in the class

30:56

was given two literary devices that like

30:59

we had a week where we had

31:01

to present what the literary device was

31:03

to the class. Did you ever have to

31:05

do anything like that? Probably, I

31:07

don't like totally remember, but that's

31:09

something like something I would have

31:12

had to do. Yeah, so the

31:14

one that I remember the most,

31:16

I do remember kiosk must be

31:18

with those. I also remember anaphora

31:21

and a cindeton. But oh, I

31:23

do, I will say, I think

31:25

that we could consider the steak

31:27

and kidney putting a motif.

31:30

Yeah, what does it represent? Britain.

31:32

Yeah. I guess some little teeth doesn't

31:34

have to represent anything. It can just

31:37

be featured a lot. I think it

31:39

usually is supposed to represent something. I

31:41

mean, they could represent like, I don't

31:43

know, maybe they only ever eat it

31:46

or try to eat it when they're

31:48

anxious about something. I don't know.

31:50

We'll have to follow that. Yeah, so I'm

31:52

just scanning the page one more time. I

31:55

think that's about it for literary devices.

31:57

You could maybe argue imagery with

31:59

that. huddled this crab and

32:01

goil huddled together and then also

32:04

the crowded griffin door common room

32:06

that's a stretch though that's the

32:08

crowded griffin door common room gives

32:10

me anxiety oh okay like you're

32:13

supposed to like you're supposed to

32:15

be able to like chill in the

32:17

common room like why are they why

32:19

is it so small that they have

32:21

to like pack in there's not that

32:23

many of them it must be pretty

32:25

tiny no I don't like that And

32:28

yeah, but I do think the biggest

32:30

literary device here that we're seeing is

32:32

the foreshadowing of they wouldn't fire him

32:34

would they not that it's not that

32:36

he is going to get fired per

32:38

se, but you know he's going to

32:41

have he's going to be put on

32:43

probation. Yeah, for the next three books

32:45

we're going to have. Will he

32:47

get fired plot? Right, exactly. Okay,

32:49

so got a couple more segments

32:51

to talk about here. Let's kind

32:53

of look a little bit more.

32:55

closely at the words on the

32:57

page and Alice's idea for a

32:59

segment is the band name of

33:01

the week and why don't you

33:03

explain what that is Alice? Well

33:05

I just thought like sometimes we

33:07

get some funny sequences of words

33:09

in Harry Potter and so I

33:11

thought each week we should go

33:14

through and just pick a little

33:16

sequence of words or I mean it

33:18

could be one word even if you

33:20

think it would be a good band

33:22

name but something that appears on the

33:24

page. And it has to be like

33:26

in order like you can't choose three

33:28

words that are like top middle and

33:30

bottom of the page. We could do

33:32

what we could do a blackout poetry

33:35

of the page and write a poem

33:37

using blackout poetry methods. We could but

33:39

that might I think maybe not this

33:41

week. Oh, okay. But the band name

33:43

of the week I honestly the one

33:45

I had kind of thought would be

33:47

a funny band name would be steak

33:50

and kitty pudding, but I think now

33:52

that we have that. for something else,

33:54

I think. Well, I mean, it's not bad.

33:56

First thing, this is right at the top of

33:58

the page, but I did think. far worse

34:00

injuries could work. Yeah, I also

34:02

think this is down toward the

34:04

bottom of the page, but I

34:06

think tower window would be a

34:08

good band name. Yeah, and I

34:10

guess the question too, we should

34:12

just confirm for all of these,

34:14

is there a band already with

34:16

that name? So maybe you can

34:19

Google, Snake and Kenny Pudding Band.

34:21

I do think, yeah, Snake could

34:23

be putting, I would not be

34:25

shocked if there already is a band

34:27

with that. I think maybe we could.

34:29

You could argue deep in

34:31

conversation, that's kind of

34:34

basic though. Yeah, I kind of personally,

34:36

I'm kind of like, Tower

34:38

Window is kind of a

34:40

sexy band name. Tower Window

34:42

Band, not seeing it, it

34:44

says the AI overview, the

34:46

band you're likely referring to

34:49

is Tower of Power, a

34:51

renowned funk and soul band

34:53

known for their Oakland soul

34:55

sound and extensive touring history.

34:57

Um, there is tower,

34:59

there is tower window

35:01

records incorporated.

35:04

Oh, okay. Yeah. What was

35:06

the other one you said?

35:08

Far worse injuries. Yeah, that's

35:11

another, that'd be a good one

35:13

too. Far worse injuries banned.

35:15

Oh, wait. No, far worse.

35:18

There is a band called

35:20

Far worse, it looks like.

35:22

But I don't think. I

35:24

don't think. I don't know.

35:27

Steak and kidney pudding doesn't

35:29

seem to be a name of

35:31

a band, but I'm searching in

35:33

Apple Music and it is at

35:36

least a lyric in several songs.

35:38

Yeah, okay, I was gonna just

35:41

suggest common room and that is

35:43

a band. Okay, yeah, that'd be a

35:45

good one. Yeah, so I think it's

35:47

a common room. Yeah, true instead of

35:49

common room. Right, but we don't know. Okay,

35:51

well I think I would probably say steak

35:54

and kidney pudding, but you're probably right that

35:56

we've done that a little bit too much.

35:58

I think that's the theme of... this week

36:00

though, or this week's episode. Yeah, probably.

36:02

But yeah, I would say far worse

36:05

injuries, sick and kidney putting, and tower

36:07

window. Tower window is kind of sexy,

36:09

like you said. I think for future

36:12

weeks of this, we'll each come in

36:14

with our proposal and then pick one.

36:16

But since we're starting to kind of

36:18

just get going on this, we're kind

36:21

of figuring out what we're looking for.

36:23

And I hadn't told you about Band

36:25

of the Week until just right before

36:28

we started. Okay, so we've got a

36:30

couple more things to get through here.

36:32

And this is a very dialogue heavy

36:35

chat page, like we said. So I

36:37

think this next segment will be pretty

36:39

easy to find something for, which is

36:41

the burn of the week. And this

36:44

is something that we are borrowing from

36:46

one of our favorite podcasts, no longer

36:48

doing the same topic, but that

36:51

is the Babysitters Club Club, Jack

36:53

and Tanner, one of our favorite

36:55

podcast to listen to back in the

36:57

day. Yeah, so burn of the week

36:59

is just like what it sounds. It's

37:02

we're going to look for who who

37:04

gives the best like roast of somebody

37:06

else. And this one occurred to me

37:08

because I I when I was

37:10

reading this page I was like

37:12

oh there was a burn. Yeah. And

37:15

I do think like we already kind

37:17

of mentioned it but I feel like

37:19

it. when Ron said trust Malfoid to

37:21

mess things up for him. That one

37:23

too is the burn of this week.

37:25

That's the most obvious burn on the

37:28

page. There's actually not that many other

37:30

ones, but I do think that that's.

37:32

I mean, we have Ron's two irony,

37:34

or two ironic comments, that one, and

37:36

then the, you can't say it wasn't

37:38

an interesting first day back. That could

37:40

maybe could be a little bit of

37:43

a burn on the day, but I

37:45

think that that's the clearest example of

37:47

the trust malware to mess, to mess

37:49

things up for him. Now, if we're

37:51

going back to the missed opportunity, if

37:53

the author had included something about Hackert

37:56

would have been hard to miss, that

37:58

could have been the burn. do a

38:00

bit more of a reach for it because

38:02

I'm not gonna always have a burn

38:04

on every page but I think we're gonna

38:07

find one. Yeah I think so too

38:09

so that is the burn of

38:11

the week of course we don't

38:13

know maybe the staked could be

38:15

putting might have been burned. Could

38:17

be. Maybe that's why Hermione was

38:19

not touching it. Well Hermione was

38:21

talking about they wouldn't fire him

38:23

they wouldn't burn him would they?

38:25

Well here's another burn they better

38:27

not. Yeah, ooh, the Chinese fireball.

38:29

I don't, I don't think, doesn't

38:31

say, there's no adverb saying how

38:34

Ron said it, but I don't

38:36

think he said that menacingly. I

38:38

think he said it well, it

38:40

better not. But this is why

38:43

we need that. I know the

38:45

adverbs really help. Yeah, because we,

38:47

that could be interpreted as Ron

38:49

said threateningly. Yeah, Ron bald his

38:52

fist into his palm. they better

38:54

not. They're gonna have to come

38:56

through me if they want to

38:58

fire. Exactly. Yeah, like there is

39:01

a moment like that on page

39:03

118, but I'm not allowed to

39:05

talk about that. So all right,

39:07

you know, this is the Real

39:10

Weird Sisters, so of course we

39:12

have to give out a couple

39:14

awards of the week. And the

39:17

first one. is the MVP, which

39:19

is not always going to be

39:21

present. And maybe there's a couple

39:24

arguments to be made here. First

39:26

of all, Buckbeek, his presence is

39:28

felt in this page, even though

39:30

he's not present on the

39:33

page. But also what Buckbeek

39:35

did is kind of not

39:37

the most valuable thing. So

39:39

I don't know if we

39:41

wanted to give it to

39:43

Buckleby. Right, he called him a

39:46

great ugly brute, so I can't

39:48

I can't blame Buckbeek, but I

39:50

also don't know if he deserves

39:52

an award for doing this. Because

39:54

it put Hagred's job in jeopardy.

39:57

Well, what other bird do we

39:59

have here? I mean,

40:01

we have the light in

40:03

Hagred's window. That might be

40:06

a bird. We don't know

40:08

that. It could be. Yeah.

40:10

I mean, it doesn't specify

40:13

what the kidneys made, or

40:15

what type of animals kidney

40:18

is. Right. Could be chicken

40:20

kidney. Ostrage kidney. Yeah. There's

40:22

not much to be found

40:25

for birds here. But I

40:27

do think like when we get

40:29

an MVP, an obvious MVP on

40:31

a page, it's going to be,

40:33

we're going to know, it's a

40:36

really good page. Yeah, that's true.

40:38

And that's part of why this

40:40

page is kind of not necessarily

40:43

going with us in Hermione's

40:45

Beated Bag. There's no MVP. Yeah.

40:48

missing another adverb. We missed the

40:50

chance to roast Haggard for his

40:52

size. Yeah, exactly. So, you know,

40:55

if it had those things, it

40:57

would be definitely going in the

40:59

beaded bag, but... Right. I mean,

41:02

it's a pretty good page, but

41:04

yeah, so MVP, I guess we

41:06

can give to Buckey, but I

41:08

don't know. I think Buckey gets it

41:11

kind of honorary MVP. Or maybe

41:13

we could give it to the

41:16

other hippogriff. Well, no, I guess

41:18

he's... Buckbeak's the only hippogriff in this

41:20

scene? I can't even remember now. There

41:22

were, I think he was, yeah. Yeah,

41:25

there were, I think there was more

41:27

than one in the, um, movie, but,

41:29

actually I don't remember. Yeah, I

41:31

don't remember either. There's definitely just

41:33

the one here, so, because I

41:35

just looked back, even though I'm

41:37

only supposed to be looking at

41:40

page 119. Bucky's fine. Bucky's fine.

41:42

Okay, and of course, it wouldn't

41:44

be a real weird sisters episode

41:46

if we did not give out

41:48

a real weirdo. So characters present

41:50

on this page. We have Harry,

41:52

Ron, Hermione, and we have watching

41:55

Crab and Doyle, and we have

41:57

talking about Hagger at Madame Pomfrey.

42:00

and a brief mention of Professor

42:02

McGaugh. I think this is going to

42:04

be really interesting because we have given

42:06

out lots of real weirdos over the

42:08

course of the book, but there's been

42:10

a lot of people who were snubbed.

42:12

Yes. Over the course of the series, I

42:14

mean, because when we can only give out

42:16

one per chapter, a lot of people kind

42:19

of get brushed to the side that were

42:21

quite weird and did some quite things. Right.

42:23

Or, you know, Hermione and Ron, we frequently.

42:26

you know, we're like, well, they got it last

42:28

week so we can give it to somebody

42:30

else this week, but maybe they really were

42:32

the real weirdo, I don't know. Right, so

42:34

this is going to be a way, we're

42:36

going to keep track of it all in

42:38

a spreadsheet, but we're going to keep track

42:41

of who gets the real weirdo the most

42:43

over the course of this series. So, I

42:45

do think we should also. define real weirdo

42:47

better for this series? Well, I just think

42:49

that we started off the series, like with

42:51

the book club. We started off saying that

42:54

the real weirdo was being given, well, the

42:56

real weird, remember how we did the

42:58

real weird, like, the real weird, yeah,

43:00

but the real weirdo, I feel like

43:03

we made it like that was the

43:05

star of the episode, but. then it's

43:07

kind of shifted to who's being the

43:10

weirdest in this page. Right. And I

43:12

think we should stick with the weirdest,

43:14

but what do you think? I agree,

43:17

because, like, just saying who's featured the

43:19

most is kind of boring. Yeah. So

43:21

let's go with the weirdest. Would it

43:23

be Hermione for her staking kidney pudding?

43:26

It's between her and Ron. I think

43:28

Ron with his little, like, like, nabs.

43:30

No, that's not the right word. His

43:33

little roasts that he does that

43:35

he does. He's funny. Yeah. I

43:37

think it's probably going to be

43:39

Hermione. I also, we kind of

43:41

didn't talk about this as much

43:43

as we could have, which is

43:46

at the end, Hermione, I don't

43:48

know about whether they're going to

43:50

go to Hagrid's. Because Harry's worried

43:52

about Harry. Harry saw her glombs

43:54

at him. And obviously, I mean,

43:56

I just look at page 120,

43:58

but I'm guessing. It's because Harry's

44:01

not supposed to go out after

44:03

dark. Yeah. Yeah, so I think Hermione

44:05

could get it. Yeah, reasons for

44:07

getting the real weirdo. Eating steak

44:10

and kidney pudding. Pushing it around

44:12

on her plate a bunch. Well,

44:14

it doesn't say that she's pushing

44:17

it. She's actually not touching it.

44:19

Yeah. Just sitting there. Right. We

44:21

have, so that's number one

44:23

reason is eating the steak and

44:26

kidney pudding. Second thing is the.

44:28

being like a helicopter friend to

44:30

Harry. And then third thing, honestly,

44:32

this is kind of, you know,

44:34

end of days, Hermione, where we

44:36

have, they wouldn't fire him. She's

44:38

the one to bring that up first,

44:41

that Harry and Ron are kind of

44:43

just like, and she's the most skeptical

44:45

person here and everything, do you think

44:48

he'll be all right? And Harry's like,

44:50

of course he will. So both of

44:52

those things is like, she's like not

44:55

as confident about. things as she

44:57

she's just a little bit more skeptical

45:00

person. Right, exactly. Yeah.

45:02

So, Hermione gets the real weirdo.

45:04

I have a feeling she'll

45:06

be getting it fairly frequently.

45:08

Probably. I mean, I think Ron

45:11

and Hermione are both going to

45:13

just by default because they're there

45:15

so often. Well, we didn't even

45:17

we didn't even suggest is Harry

45:20

a contender at all. he

45:22

hasn't been in the past. I think

45:24

maybe we still stick with him not

45:27

being allowed. We can make fun of

45:29

him for other things. I kind of

45:31

think maybe he should be. Okay. I don't

45:33

know. I just worry that I don't want

45:36

to get to the end of this and

45:38

be like well Harry was the weirdest one.

45:40

But I here's not that weird most of

45:42

it. Like Harry has some weird ideas if

45:45

we were well, yes But if we were

45:47

considering Harry on this page it still would

45:49

have been Hermione That's true. I Think it's

45:51

I think Harry should be a contender because

45:53

it'd be kind of interesting to see

45:55

which one of the three of them

45:57

has the most weird moments. That's true

46:00

Okay, so other things that I thought we

46:02

could talk about doesn't really apply to

46:04

this one, but just in future episodes,

46:07

we can kind of track like context

46:09

a little bit. This one, we didn't

46:11

really need much context to be able

46:14

to read this page. Well, I guess.

46:16

I guess we didn't, but most people

46:18

would because we're just referring, like, there's

46:20

actually no mention of what happened to

46:23

Malefoy on this page. That's true. But

46:25

as far as like series context goes,

46:27

like Ronald Hermione aren't fighting or anything,

46:30

or nobody in the trio is fighting,

46:32

so we don't need that context, we

46:34

don't need like the context of like,

46:36

you know, what's happening with Voldemort or

46:38

anything. This is a pretty... I

46:40

don't know. It's pretty, even though it

46:43

is just a random page pulled out

46:45

of nowhere, like it's pretty easy to

46:47

follow. Right. And I mean, honestly, if

46:49

this was a page to like, if

46:52

I was like, you know, studying inferences

46:54

in a class or something, this

46:56

could be a good page to

46:58

like, read and then be like

47:00

to have the question be like,

47:02

what could they be discussing? And

47:04

like, you know, you could read the page

47:06

and it would still like, you have

47:08

to like. sort of know their names,

47:10

Hermione, Harry, and Ron, but like they're

47:13

having this conversation and you could like

47:15

have the end of it be like

47:17

you could make an inference about like

47:20

something has happened to Malfoi

47:22

that is going to hurt Hagrid's

47:24

job. Right. Yeah. So yeah. All right. Well,

47:26

this was our... We could have English

47:28

lesson of the week. How would you

47:30

use this to teach this to your

47:32

eighth graders? Or how would I use

47:34

this page in the lesson for eighth

47:36

graders? And it would be to teach

47:38

inferences. So good, and that's a big

47:40

eighth grade lesson. So all right, last

47:42

segment I want to do, I know

47:44

we gave all our awards and we'll

47:46

figure out a good order as we

47:49

keep going through this, but I thought

47:51

that it would be fun to just

47:53

quickly. figure out how Mary Grandpray would

47:55

have interpreted this page. And I thought

47:57

that the segment title would be, why

47:59

don't you Grandpray? about it. Okay I

48:01

think that I was thinking about

48:03

this and I think that it

48:05

would be a picture I'm gonna

48:07

paint this for us. Hermione is

48:10

sitting in the middle I don't know

48:12

if she was sitting in the middle

48:14

for this or not but she would

48:16

be for this like they're sitting in

48:19

a row of three I guess for

48:21

the picture that would make sense

48:23

yeah yeah so Hermione's sitting in the

48:25

middle Harry and Ron on either

48:27

side of her She, right, pudding,

48:30

sorry, she has an anxious look

48:32

on her face, her fork is

48:34

sort of on the edge of

48:36

the plate, and she's looking just

48:38

kind of anxious, and Harry and

48:40

Ron are kind of, have their

48:42

arms around her. Okay, I agree

48:44

that it's going to be a

48:47

dinner picture, but I don't think

48:49

they're going to have their arms

48:51

around her because they're going to

48:53

have their arms around her because

48:55

they're going to be sitting like

48:58

that. So I actually think we

49:00

might have a bit more of

49:02

a perspective of Harry and Ron

49:04

across the table from Hermione and

49:06

we're just seeing the backs of

49:08

their heads and we're looking at

49:11

Hermione's plate. It's like I do kind

49:13

of like the eddy of the fork

49:15

having moved some food around a bit

49:17

even though it's that she didn't touch

49:19

her food. And I don't think Mary

49:21

Grandpray is super talented at the facial

49:23

expression, so I agree she should look

49:25

anxious, but I think it would be

49:28

more likely that she would just be

49:30

kind of looking down at her plate.

49:32

I think her mouth would be slightly

49:34

downturned. Yeah. And I don't think, I

49:36

think that I would see just the backs

49:38

of her and Ron's heads like kind of

49:40

looking at her mighty. I just can't really

49:42

picture how that would be drawn. I think

49:44

she's done illustrations like that before. Okay,

49:46

maybe. I just don't, I don't like

49:48

the idea of the three of them

49:50

sitting in a row. Well, that's how

49:52

I think Mary Grand prey would draw

49:55

it for perspective. It's easier. Yeah, I

49:57

guess. Oh, and I forgot to say

49:59

too. I mean... Maybe this is a

50:01

motif too, the light in Hagert's

50:03

window. Is it green light? I

50:05

hope not. For the green light

50:07

at the end of Hagert's. The

50:09

green glow. Yeah, no, I think. I

50:11

agree, the light in Hagert's hut

50:13

is something to watch. Something to

50:15

watch. Right, exactly. Okay. Before we

50:17

jump into all of our. promotions

50:19

for next week. I want to

50:21

do our next dice roll. Yes. And

50:24

this way, if you want, it's

50:26

kind of like when we did

50:28

the chapter study or the chapter.

50:30

or the book club. We, you

50:32

know, people, some people did read along.

50:34

So this way, you'll know what

50:36

the page is coming up. Yeah.

50:38

If you'd like to read the

50:40

page in advance. Right. So for

50:42

most of the time, it won't necessarily

50:44

be two weeks in a row

50:46

that you'll have read the page

50:48

and ahead of time, but for

50:50

this where you want to try

50:52

it out for next episode will

50:54

be this page that we roll next

50:57

or that we're about to roll.

50:59

So that. Like I said, it

51:01

won't always be every week because

51:03

we'll still continue with the other

51:05

types of shows that we do. But

51:07

this time, this will be next

51:09

week. Next Monday, we'll be discussing

51:11

this page number that we're about

51:13

to roll. Okay, so big exciting

51:15

moment here with the dice roll. So

51:18

are you ready for me to

51:20

do it or do you want

51:22

to do it Alice? You take

51:24

control please. All right, so I'm

51:26

on custom dice roller.com for anybody who's

51:28

curious custom dice roller.com. Unfortunately, it

51:30

doesn't simulate the sound of a

51:32

dice, but I think I'm gonna

51:34

plug that into the episode. So

51:36

just for that feeling of we're

51:38

rolling the dice here. And my first

51:40

dye is the book number. So

51:42

I'm rolling. And the page numbers

51:44

all worked for the 10-sided dice

51:46

that I have here because, you

51:48

know, there's 870 pages in that book.

51:51

And we landed on page 340.

51:53

41 for book five. All right.

51:55

And of course, just to be

51:57

clear, this is the American version

51:59

of, we didn't say that at the

52:01

top, but this is the American

52:03

version page number. I don't think

52:05

we're ever gonna have an, even

52:07

though we have different additions, I

52:09

don't think we're ever gonna have

52:11

a week where the page number is

52:13

different, right? I don't think so.

52:15

For the American version. Yeah. All

52:17

right. Well, this was, I thought,

52:19

very fun to do. I hope

52:21

listeners enjoyed diving into this page. We

52:24

did not really enter a world

52:26

that was entirely our own this

52:28

week. We entered the world of

52:30

Harry Potter. Yeah. So I think,

52:32

like, as we continue with this format.

52:34

We're going to kind of figure

52:36

out exactly like you said like

52:38

what order we're going to go

52:40

in and all of that But

52:42

this is kind of just showing

52:44

you what what we're planning on doing

52:47

Yes, exactly. So I hope you

52:49

enjoyed this. We did for sure.

52:51

And we'll be back next week

52:53

talking about Book 5, Order of

52:55

the Phoenix, page 341. We'll find out

52:57

what that is next week and

52:59

you will hopefully prepare by reading

53:01

that page or you'll find out
