Potter Revisited Episode #84 Hearsay & Slander AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 24 "Rita Skeeter's Scoop"
Just like in this chapter, we are over the Christmas holidays Hermione used SleekEasy for her hair - which is where Harry's fortune comes from Hermione is so unfazed by Hagrid being a half-giant Hermione and Ron are acting overly polite to each other - definitely not discussing their fight Harry is facing the consequences for his procrastination - the 2nd task is coming upHarry is so petty, not wanting to use Cedric's advice for the egg clue We are introduced to Professor Grubbly-Plank Malfoy saved this article just to ruin Harry's day - Malfoy is such a Twitter guy The interview Hagrid gave to Rita is out - but it definitely isn't the interview he gave This is 100% slander and Hagrid should sue The Article reveals Hagrid as a Half-Giant and how he is a vicious, terrible person/teacher. The article is really prejudice and reminds us of the terrible tabloid media in the 90s - especially in the UK It is nice for the students to get an actual proper lesson for once The trio see Viktor swimming in the lake - does he have the egg figured out and is scoping out the lake? Hermione is trying to talk Krum up but Ron just wants him to be eaten by the Giant Squid Bagman is hanging out at the Three Broomsticks - does he ever work? We learn that Mr Crouch is ill and Percy is filling in - shouldn't this have been a red flag for the Ministry? Bagman offers Harry help again and Harry brings up Cedric - we love Harry being so honest and a good sport Interesting how Rita speaks with Harry despite him calling her out in front of the whole bar compared to how she speaks to Hermione - Harry is someone as note whereas Hermione isn't anyone important to herRita should be more scared of HermioneHermione is fired up and marches down to Hagrid's to get him to come back and ends up face to face with Dumbledore - this would have been such a great scene for the films Dumbledore seems to be a good friend to Hagrid hereAlberforth is mentioned by Dumbledore - does the way Dumbledore refers to him come off as elitist? "I don't trust goats" - Tori Its nice to see Hagrid voice the similarities between himself and Harry - they have a very weird relationship but it's very sweet at the same timeHarry decides he has to figure out the egg clue because he can't let Hagrid down Harry should be suing people all the time If Hermione killed Rita as a bug would it be murder? If you die in Anamagius form, would you stay like that? Let us know what you think! Snape Sucks total for Chapter 24: 0Email any thoughts, questions or feedback to
