Potter Revisited Episode #65 The Hot Weasley AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 5 "Weasley's Wizard Wheezes"

  • We are finally back at the burrow! 
  • It is confirmed the Twins had not tested the product they slipped to Dudley last chapter
  • Ton Tongue Toffee is a really good product name 
  • Mr Weasley has a good point about the optics of Fred and George giving Dudley the prank sweet and how it could affect his work 
  • Mr Weasley is mad but not has much as Mrs Weasley 
  • Mrs Weasley is upset about the Twins OWL marks - she wants the to work at the Ministry which seems to be one of the only job options the series shows so far
  • She sees Fred and George as not having ambition since she doesn't see a joke shop as a serious venture but the twins clearly have lots of ambition it just shows differently than with Percy
  • Percy has his job at the Ministry, which he has been working towards for a long time, and no one seems to respect him or what he has accomplished and he clearly needs the validation 
  • We get our first mention of Mr Couch, who's name is repeated multiple times this chapter 
  • Bill and Charlie prove to not be like Percy as they are battling with tables in the air outside
  • Percy seems to talk to Bill and Charlie differently than his younger siblings 
  • Shay thinks that Ludo giving Mr Weasley the World Cup tickets after covering up for his brother a bit corrupt 
  • We get a Bertha Jorkins mention - interesting that we as the reader know she is dead from chapter 1 but the characters think she is missing 
  • Viktor Krum is also mentioned - is he the Sydney Crosby or Carrie Price of Quidditch? 
  • Fred and George reveal at the end of the chapter that they sent Percy dragon dung to his office - this feels more cruel than the usually siblings pranks especially since no one seems to respect Percy
  • We finally get to meet Bill and Charlie Weasley
  • Bill is the anti-percy, literally just COOL
  • Is Bill a wizard tomb raider? 
  • What exactly does Charlie do with dragons at his job? 
  • It is interesting that Bill is constantly described as cool and handsome and ends up with Fleur - the two hottest people together
  • Shay has an important message: get out and support your women's hockey league!
  • Snape Sucks total for Chapter 5: 0
