Potter Revisited Episode #54 Accusatory Whiplash AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 17 "Cat, Rat & Dog"

  • This chapter has so much great buildup and reveals
  • Is Buckbeak actually dead in this timeline? 
  • Ron pushing Harry out of the way of the giant dog - MVP move
  • Is Ron pushing Harry out of the way his own will? Or is it the Horcrux in Harry causing him to protect him 
  • Ron's leg breaking is still hard to read
  •  Harry's reasoning to not go for help - "That thing is big enough to eat him!" 
  • Why don't the trio ever split up? Hermione could of gone for help while Harry went after Ron 
  • The Shrieking Shack reveal is great 
  • Was the tunnel to the Shrieking Shack made for Lupin like the Whomping Willow was planted, or was it already there and repurposed?
  • The Sirius Black reveal - also amazing! 
  • Sirius doesn't do himself any favours being super vague 
  • Harry has a voice telling him to kill Black - is this his own inner voice or the Horcrux inside him? 
  • Ron's line "If you want to kill Harry, you'll have to kill us too!" is such a great Ron moment and it doesn't make sense why Hermione got it in the movie
  • Does Harry even know how to kill someone with a wand? 
  • How did Crookshanks come to trust Sirius? 
  • Lupin comes in, but before we can truly feel relieved, it appears he is in league with Sirius - such a big betrayal 
  • The short conversation Lupin has with Sirius before they hug really shows how close they were before
  • The emotions Lupin must have gone through thinking Sirius was bad all this time, and then learning that he was actually framed
  • Lupin does a great job of deescalating the trio - without him Sirius would have been a goner
  • Should the chapter have been split into two? The Sirius Black reveal is overshadowing pretty quickly by the other accusations and the Peter reveal 
  • Snape Sucks total for Chapter 16: 0
