Potter Revisited Episode #81 Barmy Old Codger AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 21 "The House-Elf Liberation Front"

  • Ron is acting super enthusiastic to make it up to Harry - something he also does in DH
  • Love that Harry gave Sirius a full play-by-play on the first task 
  • Ron just spoils Harry's surprise party and no one says anything? 
  • How do the other houses throw parties?
  • Dean is the only one that really has a hobby 
  • Harry opens the egg and Neville thinks it's the cruciatus curse - lots of foreshadowing hints about Neville's past and also Harry does have the curse used on him later on 
  • Fred and George's canary creams are such advanced magic 
  • Hermione trying to manipulate F&G to tell her about the kitchens is fun 
  • Are the students getting drunk off the whisky fumes Hagrid set out for the Beauxbaton horses? 
  • How is Rita able to just get onto the grounds when she was banned? This is a school! How does Hogwarts monitor visitors? 
  • Should Harry just told Hagrid to not do anything with Rita even if it was rude?
  • Dobby is at Hogwarts! 
  • Its very cool seeing Dobby again and how he is handling being a free elf, compared to Winky who is miserable 
  • Winky let's slip that Crouch thinks Bagman is a bad wizard - we are getting lot of different hints about potential "bad guys" that through us off the real villain of this book 
  • Ron offers Dobby his christmas jumper - but wouldn't Mrs Weasley just make Dobby his own sweater if asked?
  • We as Canadians try and figure out how pies fit in pockets 
  • Percy is ragged on a lot in this chapter for not being able to take a joke / being a stick in the mud. He isn't even present! 
  • It is interesting seeing how the other House Elves seem wary of Dobby 
  • Has the SPEW plot aged well? It does get hard to read Hermione constantly being put down by everyone despite being right
  • Snape Sucks total for Chapter 21: 0
