Potter Revisited Episode #69 Safety Now, Clarification Later AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 9 "The Dark Mark"

  • Very dark chapter
  • Harry's dream is interesting as this is the first time we see him consider his future outside of school 
  • rereading as a an adult really highlights the assault Mr Roberts family faces 
  • Draco basically implies his parents are death eaters 
  • Why were students traveling with Madame Maxime if it is still summer holidays?
  • Harry realizes he has lost his wand - kind of similar to losing your phone now and how vulnerable you feel without it 
  • Why does Ron seem more affected by the Veelas than Harry? 
  • Could Harry being a Horcurx stop him from being as affected?
  • Winky is seen in the forest and the beginning of Hermione's SPEW foundation 
  • Ludo being bad at his job
  • Crouch trying to align himself with Harry as the least likely to be connected to the Dark Arts is interesting knowing the illegal things he has done at this point 
  • How Winky is spoken to by Amos and Mr Crouch is hard to read 
  • Hermione standing up for Winky is really when Shay starts to get on the Hermione bandwagon 
  • Interesting the idea is brought up only death eaters could cast the dark mark, and the idea someone could be a friend rather than a foe - foreshadowing to Snape being a double agent
  • Hermione and Percy have a disagreement for the first time - over Winky 
  • Very big tone shift in this chapter - things are going to get more mature and darker as we continue 
  • Snape Sucks total for Chapter 9: 0
