Potter Revisited Episode #96 Gaslighting AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 36 "The Parting of the Ways"
- We are now a Fudge Hate podcast
- After learning that Moody was actually Barty Crouch Jr and everything that happened to him, Harry still needs to sit with Dumbledore and tell him everything that happened
- Despite it all, Harry does ask about Cedric's parents
- Fawkes gives Harry the emotional support he needs, as well as Sirius
- Harry feels immediate comfort with Fawkes around - is this due to the wand or, or is this just what Phoenixes do?
- Fawkes is basically an emotional support animal at this point
- Could Dumbledore just have gotten Harry's memories of the events instead of making him relive it?
- Dumbledore keeps telling Harry he did beyond what was expected of him... but what was expected of him?
- Dumbledore's "gleam of triumph" What does it mean?
- We learn brother wands can't attack each other - what was Olivander doing making these wands in the first place?
- Sirius is visibly shocked and upset about the ghostly apparitions of James and Lily - is he reliving his own trauma from their deaths?
- Dumbledore does show Harry a lot of care in the aftermath, which is starkly different to how he treats Harry in OOTP
- Dumbledore: "What matters isn't what someone is born but what they grow to be" - very interesting quote in regards to the series
- Note: We do discuss the author's transphobic views in relation to this quote
- Mini G comes in yelling at Fudge - good for her
- Fudge came in and got rid of the "evidence" and then complains about the lack of evidence
- Fudge gaslights everyone SO hard
- Fudge shows the ugly side of his character with how he treats Harry and avoids responsibility to to see reason
- Why is Fudge coming to question the suspect rather than a trained professional like an Aurror?
- Fudge seems suspicious - the way he acted seems like he was in on a cover up
- Cedric's parents deserve answers in how he died
- Interesting when Harry names Lucius Malfoy as a Death Eater, Fudge brings up the fact that he is from an "old family" that donates a large amount of money, so he is obviously innocent - something we see a lot today
- Snape shows Fudge and everyone around his dark mark - is this pretty brave of him?
- Sirius reveals himself to everyone, and Snape realizes that Dumbledore has been gaslighting him for a year
- It feels naïve the way Dumbledore tries to have Sirius and Snape burry the hatchet - he expected too much as they have too much history
- Sirius and Snape leave to do their part of Dumbledore's master plan, and Mrs Weasley steps in to support Harry
- Harry describes the hug he gets being like from a mother - which has so much emotional ties with everything he has been through
- It is interesting how this chapter closes everything yet everything is not resolved and won't be going into OOTP - really a new beginning
- Last chapter and wrap up for GOF coming soon!
- Snape Sucks count for Chapter 36:0

Potter Revisited Episode #95 Even More Daddy Issues AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 35 "Veritaserum"

- Harry has been through so much in the last few chapters - he is not the same person he was going into the maze
- Harry reappearing with Cedric is crazy
- Dumbledore is in a hard situation with needed to diffuse the situation with a dead student yet also need to get information from Harry
- Interesting that Moody taking Harry away is what clues Dumbledore in that he is an imposer
- Harry is being very vulnerable with fake Moody
- The reveal that (fake) Moody put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire was shocking to Tori as a kid, when you think at the moment that Moody is a bad guy
- Moody says he put Harry under a fake school name - is that a poorly thought out plothole /loophole for this book?
- Moody didn't really help Harry as much as he implies - Harry did do all the tasks himself
- Harry's reliance on Ron and Hermione almost ruins fake Moody's plans - he assumes Harry would ask everyone for help
- Fake Moody attempts to kill Harry for Voldemort - what would of happened if he had tried since Harry is a Horcrux?
- Shay takes all about Barty Crouch Jrs Daddy Issues
- Having the Truth Potion used to reveal Crouch Jr's plans is a lot better than more monologues
- Could you use hair in a polyjuice potion for a person that is dead?
- Poor real Moody has been through it
- We discuss the Foe Glass that is in the office, how it works and Shay wonders if it hints at Snape's true loyalty

Potter Revisited Episode #94 He Brought a Spoon to a Gun Fight AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 33 "Priori Incantatem"
- Voldemort plans to duel Harry in front of all the Death Eaters
- Wormtail unties Harry from the gravestone but won't meet his eyes
- All Harry can recall from duelling is what Lockhart taught him
- This is where expelliarmus becomes Harry's signature spell
- Voldemort is always monologuing and he refers to himself as death - referencing the Hallows?
- Harry has been through so much these last few hours
- Harry just accepts he is going to die, and decides he will not let Voldemort define his death
- Voldemort kind of complements James on how he died
- Could Harry have used a better, more offensive spell than expelliarmus?
- Harry hears the Phoenix Lament when the priori incantatem occurs between him and Voldemort
- Would priori incantatem occur for any other type of shared cores? Would it be different depending on the core?
- Harry sees the ghostly apparitions of the people Voldemort has killed
- Shay wonders what would of happened in Snape was present when the Lily apparition appeared
- Its interesting the the movies have the Lily apparition relay the information but in the book it is James. Harry really feels comforted by the assumed presents of his dad
- Voldemort made a huge deal about Harry only being alive because of luck or Dumbledore, but Harry is able to escape on his own
- This is the true turning point in the series as we go into a world where Voldemort is back at full powe

Potter Revisited Episode #91 Opting Out of the Opt Out Option AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 31 "The Third Task"
- We are finally at the last task of the Triwizard Tournament!
- Harry feels a lot of sympathy for Neville after learning what happened to his parents, and feels a new hatred for Voldemort and what he has cost people
- For the first time, Harry is properly prepared for a task
- Rita has changed her tune on Harry - he really should file a lawsuit
- Hermione has a brainwave about Rita and of course, does not tell Harry and Ron anything
- If a champion had been Muggle Born, would their family been able to come to Hogwarts?
- Molly tells Amos that Rita Skeeter is a liar but seemed to believe it when it was about Hermione....
- Percy is taking the Mr Crouch news very hard
- There are some safety guidelines implemented for the Third Task - has opting out been an option this whole time?
- Was the Third Task set up to be something Harry would excel at?
- Harry's initial reflect when Fleur is in trouble is to help, but then thinks about the competition
- Does it seem wrong that Fleur is the one who always seems to struggle in the tournament? It seems to further the bias of female characters that are generally more feminine are not taken seriously?
- Fake Mood did not count on Cedric being such a good sport and Harry having empathy
- Harry used all the traits of the houses within the tournament
- This is where the series really changes - Harry is never the same after this point in the book

Potter Revisited Episode #90 Constant Judgement from your Predecessors AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 30 "The Pensieve"
- We are back in Dumbledore's office
- Fudge quickly backpedals when Harry calls him out
- There is a lot of recapping done about Dumbledore's office but a lot of these things do come back in the series later on
- Harry is so nosey, we love him for it
- Interesting seeing the Real Moody in the memories - we get a good idea of his character and Moody's stance on justice
- We finally get the confirmation that Snape was a Death Eater
- What testimony did Dumbledore do to clear Snape? It seems incredible that the government just took Dumbledore's word on Snape
- Ludo getting off due to him being a celebrated athlete is too close to real life
- We see the court proceeding where Crouch tries his own son - did Barty Jr play up his innocence to make his father look bad?
- Would Crouch's career been more affected if Barty JR had acting more like Bellatrix in the trial?
- Did Dumbledore leave the pensieve out on purpose for Harry to find?
- It still feels odd that Harry did not see the dream through Voldemort's perspective
- We get more context to Neville's past and Harry has really great empathy
- Neville's parents being alive but not cognitive feels worse than Harry's parents being dead
- Dumbledore will not tell Harry anything about Snape's loyalty. Should Dumbledore have given more context? Harry's mistrust of Snape hurts Harry a lot down the line
- Dumbledore asking Harry not to tell people about Neville's parents and letting Neville decide when to tell people seems like the only time Dumbledore has protected a student that is not Harry
- How does the Pensieve work and what are the main purposes? We discuss how it could be used in court trials and other uses
- Snape Sucks count for Chapter 30:0
