ACT THREE, SCENE SIX

CAMPAIGN ROOM

The underground. An atmosphere of earth, dust, and hopeless (but necessary) endeavor.

SCORPIUS is pinned to the table by a rather magnificent-looking HERMIONE. Her clothes may be

faded, but her eyes blaze, she is full warrior now and it rather suits her.

HERMIONE: You make one more move and your brain will be a frog and your arms will be rubber.

SNAPE enters the room after SCORPIUS.

SNAPE: Safe. He’s safe. (Beat.) You know you never could listen. You were a terrible bore of a

student and you’re a terrible bore of — whatever you are.

HERMIONE: I was an excellent student.

SNAPE: You were moderate to average. He’s on our side!

SCORPIUS: I am, Hermione.

HERMIONE looks at SCORPIUS, still very distrustful.

HERMIONE: Most people know me as Granger. And I don’t believe a word you say, Malfoy —

SCORPIUS: It’s all my fault. My fault. And Albus’s.

HERMIONE: Albus? Albus Dumbledore? What’s Albus Dumbledore got to do with this?

SNAPE: He doesn’t mean Dumbledore. You may need to sit down.
