For this episode you need to have read through chapter twelve of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone! 

Grab an extra butterbeer for this one because we go over things from Harry's family to Hermione to the establishing of the "Golden Trio".

NOTE: It came to our notice that I said, "or would you go get a teacher like I did" instead of "I would" xD Let's just blame the magic for being too real. I wasn't there at Hogwarts during this incident and did not go get a teacher to save Hermione xD.
