Is Ron's willingness to help Hermione with the appeal after everything they've been through what makes her break?

Potter Revisited Episode #51 Snape's Grudge AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 14 "Snape's Grudge"
They are finally tightening security - why wasn't this done the first time Sirius Black broke in?
Ron has become an instant celebrity for almost being murdered - a Hogwarts thing?
Neville's punishment is very harsh - is it really all his fault?
Hagrid is acting like a responsible adult
Is Hagrid a hypocrite asking Ron to forgive Hermione?
Ron convinces Harry to sneak into Hogsmede for the next weekend despite Ron's near death experience and Harry being the prime target - do they ever think?
Shay finds Hermione unlikable for threatening to tell on Harry and Ron on their Hogsmede Plan - but is it just Hermione's character?
Hermione's less likeable traits are really ignored in the films - especially PoA
When Harry goes to sneak into Hogsmede, Snape finds him - does he suspect the entrance?
The Malfoy / Harry mud fight is so fun and amusing
Despite Harry's mad dash back to the castle, he is caught by Snape and is so very obviously guilty
Shay finds Snape's dialogue so funny

+1 Snape Sucks
Shay has a lot of sympathy for Snape and how he is undercover and working to save Harry's life while Harry is out putting himself in danger
Tori has very little if any sympathy for Snape
Snape is telling Harry a very different version to his father than he has been told - which opens up the idea to Harry that his parents not might be what he imagined them
Snape finds the Marauders Map and when trying to work it, it insults him. What insult do you think is best?
Both Tori and Shay discuss what Lupin's internal reaction would be to seeing Harry with the Marauders Map
Shay thinks Lupin is regretting the choices he made as a Marauder. Lupin's past is really coming to get him
Lupin tells Harry and Ron off for going out, bringing up Harry's parents - is he manipulating Harry?

August 16, 2023#50 Broom Go Vroom | PoA 13, Gryffindor VS Ravenclaw
Potter Revisited Episode #50 Wizard Lobotomy AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 13 "Gryffindor VS Ravenclaw"
We made it to 50 episodes! Thank you for listening!
Shay just got back from a trip to Salem - definitely recommends
Ron and Hermione falling out - Ron seems to just want Hermione to admit she was wrong, which she won't. Why does she double down on Crookshanks being innocent?
Does Hermione using the Timeturner and school load affect how she handles this falling out?
Ron takes the loss of Scabbers really hard
Everyone is very excited Harry has his Firebolt back
Shay has an issue with a certain phrase used
We get our first introduction to Cho Chang - Ravenclaw Seeker and Harry's first crush
Harry having the firebolt - which seems to outrank everyone's brooms - doesn't seem fair for the rest of the students and teams
Harry and his Squad take the Firebolt down to breakfast the day of the game like it is a special artifact
Even Percy is excited about the Firebolt and makes a bet with his girlfriend on the game
We have missed Lee Jordan's commentary, it definitely makes reading the Quidditch heavy chapters easier for those not interested in sports
Shay wonders why a lot of Lee's commentary was excluded from the films
Harry sees what appears to be a Dementor by the pitch and shoots a Patronus at it - it ends up being Malfoy and Friends but it's very impressive for Harry to do this while still focusing on the game
Shay feels like Malfoy should have gotten a worse punishment
We wonder how Madame Hooch keeps track of all components of the game plus the fouls etc
Harry tries to make up with Hermione a bit and have her join the part but Hermione is almost hysterical - is the stress of everything starting to get to her?
Ron can be quite vindictive when he's upset
Harry has an interesting dream about trying to reach a patronus-like figure that is galloping away. Is this a sign from his father something similar?
Ron wakes up the dorm screaming that Sirius Black broke in trying to kill him - why did Dumbledore not have better security in place after the Halloween break-in?
Poor Neville got in so much trouble when it wasn't really completely on him - he was only trying to be proactive
We dive into a deeper discussion about brooms as equipment in Quidditch and if Harry having the firebolt is really fair to the rest of the students

August 03, 2023#49 Wizard Lobotomy | PoA 12, The Patronus
Potter Revisited Episode #49 Wizard Lobotomy AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 12 "The Patronus"
We discuss the fallout Hermione has with Harry and Ron over the Firebolt
Wood was fully ready to kick Harry off the Quidditch team if he didn't have his Dementor stuff figured out
Oliver barely reacts to Harry telling him Sirius Black is after him, but does react to knowing Harry got a Firebolt
With Hermione not having Harry and Ron to talk to, she is really retreating into herself and doesn't seem to be doing well
Lupin describes Patronus' to Harry as guardians, and Harry thinks of Hagrid
The struggle Harry has of wanting to overcome the dementors but also wanting to hear his parents voices is heartbreaking
These Patronus lessons must also be tough for Lupin has Harry is confiding in him on hearing his parents voices
Harry has a very emotional reaction to hearing his dad's voice for the first time
Lupin reveals that he knew James and they were friends, but Harry chooses to ask him about Sirius Black instead
Hermione is looking tired and worn out, always in the back of the common room studying and despite being angry with her, Ron is concerned
Harry is too petty to get the same broom as Malfoy
Is it weird for Lupin to have a Butterbeer with Harry?
Lupin explains what the Dementor's Kiss is, and we discuss out reactions from reading as children compared to now
Shay compares the Dementor's Kiss to a Lobotomy
Harry thinks Sirius Black deserves this punishment, but Lupin has more empathy for human life
Neville wrote down all the portrait passwords and lost the list - Shay is astounded
Should they have had better security after the almost break-in?
Harry gets his broom back from McGonagall and decides to make up with Hermione
How many hours a day is Hermione dedicating to school vs sleep?
Ron discovers blood on his sheets, no Scabbers and cat hair in his room and accuses Crookshanks of killing Scabbers leading into the next falling out with Hermione

July 19, 2023#48 The Right Thing The Wrong Way | PoA 11, The Firebolt
Potter Revisited Episode #48 The Right Thing The Wrong Way AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 11 "The Firebolt"
Harry is dealing with the revelation from last chapter, learning that Sirius Black was friends with his parents, is his godfather, and betrayed his parents to Voldemort
Harry is having strong feelings of anger and vengeance - the first time we really see him like this
Harry imagines Peter Pettigrew to be like Neville - interesting comparison since many see Neville as what Peter could have been
Shay compared the rest of the trio to the Marauders
Ron and Hermione are doing their best to help Harry but they are just kids - Harry should really have a trusted adult to confide in
Ron vocalizing Harry's thoughts of killing Sirius Black is poignant
Ron shares all that was found of Pettigrew was a finger - foreshadowing for later
Ron and Hermione are working together to distract Harry and suggest visiting Hagrid - who Harry wants to confront for not telling him the truth about Sirius Black
Buckbeak is going to be brought up to the Dept of Dangerous Creatures and may be executed - despite Hagrid being the adult, the trio are the ones taking care of him
Hagrid opening up about his time in Azkaban makes it feel more real - and awful
Is it just for criminals to be imprisoned and also made depressed?
The Trio spend the Christmas break researching stuff to help Hagrid's case which is so great of them, and also keeps Harry distracted
Christmas morning, Harry gets another surprise gift - the Firebolt
Ron theorizes first that Dumbledore could have sent it to him, then Lupin - foreshadowing there is more to the Lupin/Harry relationship
Hermione enters the Dorm with Crookshanks - why did she do that when she had ensured Ron that Crookshanks would be kept in her dorm?
Crookshanks chases Scabbers and Harry's Sneak-o-Scope goes off - further foreshadowing?
Scabbers is not looking well according to Harry - Peter definitly knows that Sirius is close on his tail
We discuss what living in a animagas form for years would do to you as a person
Hermione is the only one questioning why Harry was sent this expensive brookstick, where Ron and Harry don't seem too concerned
Snape gets a Vulture topped hat in his cracker - did Dumbledore do that on purpose?
Trelawney refuses to join the table originally since she would make 13, and the first to rise would be the first to die
Tori points out that Harry and Ron stand up first, and both had near death or actual death experiences
Shay points out Scabbers was in Ron's pocket the whole time, to technically Dumbledore stands up first, and does die in HBP
We discuss the falling out with Hermione after she tells Professor McGonagall about the mystery broomstick and confiscates it
Shay believes it was a bad move and Hermione should have discussed it with Harry and Ron, while Tori believes Hermione is taking the Sirius Black stuff more seriously than Harry and Ron and acted in their best interests
Did Ron side with Harry because of the broomstick issue or because of his ongoing pet issue with Hermione?
Was Harry more angry with Hermione because he lost the broomstick, or because he saw it as a betrayal - the thoughts of Sirius Black and his day still weighing on him?
We discuss the friendship issues that happen in this book, and how it shows the trio growing up
We also discuss Harry's friendship with Hermione and how it differs between the one he has with Ron

Ginny keeps up the musical theme and gives Harry a singing get well card
Did the team force Wood to talk to Harry?
The realization Harry has about knowing he is hearing his parents last words when the Dementors are near him is chilling

How long is 2 rolls of parchment compared to a typed essay?
Lots of Lupin foreshadowing this chapter
Lupin gives more details on Dementors and Azkaban
Lupin has two very physical reactions when Harry brings up his parents and Sirius Black
Why didn't Lupin tell Harry then that he knew his parents and they were friends at school?
Harry only wants to fight the Dementors so he won't lose another Quidditch game... this school
Ron and Hermione both stay at Hogwarts with Harry - is this the beginning of Hermione pulling away from her Parents and the Muggle world?
The Twins give Harry the Marauders Map - how did Filch get it in the first place?
The Map is a very cool piece of magic

The one time Harry sneaks out, the professors with the Minister of Magic walk in and sit near him

June 21, 2023#46 Safety Second, Quidditch First | PoA 9, Grim Defeat
Potter Revisited Episode #46 Safety Second, Quidditch First AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 9 "Grim Defeat"
This chapter really shows how much Hogwarts values students safety
The students are having a slumber party in the Great Hall which Shay loves
Percy gets a little bit of authority and ruins everyones fun
Ron and Hermione mention what a coincidence it is that Sirius broke in on Halloween when they weren't in the common room - potential foreshadowing?
The beginning of Hermione being the only one to read Hogwarts: A History
Apparently Flitch can restore paintings and portraits
Harry eavesdrops on Dumbledore and Snape - Snape is trying to bring up his theory that Lupin is helping Sirius
Is Dumbledore too trusting? Tori and Shay discuss
Sir Cadogan is the new portrait for Gryffindor Tower which is chaotic
Lots of students have different theories on how Sirius broke in - Hannah's about the shrub is probably the closest
Harry notices teachers are paying more attention to him after the break in - even Percy is checking in
Did Percy know why he was checking in on Harry?
McGonagall is the only true adult in this series, checking in on Harry and letting him know what is actually happening
Is so fun seeing McGonagall throw common sense away for a Quidditch win
We get our first reference to Cedric Diggory - Fred and George seem jealous of the attention he gets
Even if real Quidditch games play during all types of weather and events, shouldn't a school inter-house league be treated differently? Where are the safety precautions for students?
Is magic able to control the weather at all?
Snape is covering Lupin for DADA - let the games begin
Is Snape trying to imply that Lupin isn't really ill? Did he only cover Lupin's class to insult Lupin to the students?
Supply Teachers going against the current curriculum set by the teacher is so stressful
Shay loves how snarky Snape is, and brings up the point it is probably good to have students learning about Werewolves if one is going to be at the school
+1 Snape Sucks for insulting Hermione in front of the entire class
We discuss Ron defending Hermione VS how it is changed in the film
Snape sets an essay on how to recognize Werewolves and Kill them - is he wanting to kill Lupin? Do wizards actually kill Werewolves?
Lots of foreshadowing to Lupin and Snape's past
Crookshanks tries to sneak into the Boys' dorm when Harry is leaving for Quidditch - why isn't Hermione keeping a better eye on him?
It is storming so bad during the Quidditch game Harry can't see through his glasses - Hermione comes eventually with a charm to repel the rain - why didn't Oliver or any of the older students know to do this?
When the dementors storm the field, Harry hears his mother begging for his life which is so heartbreaking
This whole episode with Harry is crazy as all his friend and team thought he had died - yet all he asks when he wakes up is who won the match
We get a little bit of Cedric's character as he was trying to call for a rematch when he saw Harry had fallen off his broom due to the Dementors
Harry gets double bad news when finding out his broom had been destroyed by the Whomping Willow - RIP Nimbus 2000
The broom was obviously sentimental to Harry but why does he wait so long to order a new broom?
How much do brooms actually cost in Muggle currency?

June 08, 2023#45 Teatime With Lupin | PoA 8, The Flight of the Fat Lady
Potter Revisited Episode #45 Teatime With Lupin AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 8 "The Flight of the Fat Lady"
Everyone loves Lupin and DADA and we do too! Lupin seems like a great teacher
Of Course the only ones that don't like Lupin are Malfoy & Co - is it only because he is obviously poor?
Snape, meanwhile is still taking out his feelings about Lupin on the students, especially Neville - +1 Snape Sucks
Shay thinks she would be like Parvarti and Lavender and visiting Trelawney at Lunch
Harry really doesn't like Divination this early on - why doesn't he drop it and take something else?
Oliver gives a Rudy-style pep talk to the team - it's his last chance to win the Quidditch cup before he graduates
Ron mentions Scabbers is in his bag, and then Crookshanks attacks - the whole chance scene is very amusing to picture
Is Ron more mad at Hermione because of Crookshanks or that she won't take him seriously?
Is Hermione a good pet owner? Why isn't she controlling Crookshanks more?
The Trio see Lavender crying before class - she just got news her bunny died. She believes the prediction Trelawney made is real since it's the 16th of October
Hermione tries to disprove the prediction could be real with logic, ignoring the fact that Lavender's pet is dead - why does Hermione always do this?
Shay points out this could be the beginning of Lavender's crush on Ron, as he tells off Hermione in front of her. Tori, a Ron/Hermione shipper, isn't sure
Ron convinces Harry to ask McGonagall for permission to go to Hogsmede - and she obviously says no since it's against the rules
Dean had offered to forge Vernon's signature - why didn't Harry do this before going to McGonagall?
Tori tells a story about the time she forged her Mom's signature in Grade 4 to avoid missing recess
Shay wonders if they keep the parents signature on file and would be able to detect a forgery by magic
Harry is missing out on Hogsmede and we feel bad - Percy does a terrible job at trying to cheer him up
Lupin sees Harry walking around alone & invites him in for tea - we would love to have tea with Lupin!
Harry figures out why Lupin stopped him from confronting the Dementor - he thought it would be Voldemort
Snape comes to bring Lupin a potion - we discuss him seeing Lupin and Harry together in the office and imagining Lupin and James
Shay discusses the way Lupin speaks about Snape to Harry, which is very complimentary.
Harry trying to convince Lupin that Snape is bad and likely poisoned the potion is funny, considering Lupin and Snape grew up together at school
How Ron and Hermione describe Hogsmede to Harry very much shows their interest - The first thing Hermione brings up is the post office and how it is organized by a colour coded system, and Ron brings up Honeydukes and all the sweets
This is our first time fully seeing a Hogwarts Halloween feast as events have always prevented it - The Ghosts provide entertainment with Synchronized gliding and Nick reenacts his death - were Ghosts always the entertainment or is this new?
We discuss the twist ending - The Fat Lady has fled her frame, which has been slashed up. Sirius Black tried to break into Gryffindor tower
How did Dumbledore appear on the scene so fast?
Shay wonders why Lupin didn't do anything - didn't say anything to Dumbledore regarding Sirius
It's interesting how Peeves speaks to Dumbledore compared to other professors

May 25, 2023#44 Feelings Matter | PoA 7, The Boggart In The Wardrobe
Potter Revisited Episode #44 Feelings Matter AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 7 "The Boggart in the Wardrobe"
Even Shay, a Snape fan, can admit he is a dick in this chapter. Lots of Snape Sucks points coming!
Malfoy is obviously faking being injured - would this concern Madame Pomfrey?
Does Snape let Malfoy get away with more than any other student because of Lucius being a Death Eater and wanting to keep and eye on the inner circle for Dumbledore, or does he see parts of himself in Malfoy, and looking to give him the chances he didn't have
Tori feels like Snape really starts acting out - specifically in this chapter- because Lupin is now at Hogwarts and it has thrown him off
Draco sits with Harry & Ron in Potions just to bother them about Hagrid - Ron threatens to give him a real injury
+ Snape Sucks for mistreating Harry and Ron despite Draco egging them on
We both feel so bad for Neville, everyone can probably relate to having a class you dread because of the teacher
+1 Snape Sucks for Snape bullying Neville to the point of tears
+ Snape Sucks for Snape wanting to poison Trevor in front of the whole class
Draco finds out Harry don't know how he is connected to Sirius black and lords it over him - Is Malfoy trying to get Harry to go after Black and get killed?
Shay finds Malfoy to be almost a caricature of a classic bully - at least in the early series
+1 Snape Sucks for punishing Hermione for helping Neville save Trevor
Some foreshadowing to Hermione's time travel as she was with Harry and Ron up the staircase and then suddenly was at the bottom
Do Harry and Ron not really focus on Hermione obviously having a secret because they don't think she would be doing anything cool or breaking the rules?
The students get their first practical lesson for DADA with Lupin - shouldn't they have had one before?
Lupin and the students run into Peeves - who treats Lupin a lot different from the other Professors - could this be because he was a Marauder?
+1 Snape Sucks for Snape insulting Neville in front of Lupin and the entire class
Is Snape projecting his feelings about Lupin being at Hogwarts and targeting Neville instead?
Lupin handles Snape very well by not engaging, and instead lifting Neville up
Lupin is such a Troll, he comes off very professional speaking to Snape but then encourages Neville to make Boggart Snape wear his Gran's clothes
Harry comes off quite mature when thinking of his greatest fear - he has two mass murderers after him but rather goes for what most recently has scared him
Shay wonders why most of the students boggarts were generic Halloween type monsters, and not something like disappointed parents, failure, etc
Is Neville's Boggart being Snape more showing is fear of incompetence rather than actual fear of Snape?
Did Lupin make any preparations for students having some deeper trauma (like he sort of did for Harry?)
Lupin stops Harry from battling the Boggart - we see his Boggart takes the shape of an "orb" or something similar **foreshadowing**
Harry is very upset that Lupin didn't let him fight the Boggart despite it being pretty obvious why - why is Harry so concerned about how Lupin views him?
Why would Hermione's Boggart taken the shape of? We discuss Hermione's fears being failure and not belonging
Do Boggarts have any kind of attack or cause any injury? Or is it only psychological damage?
