ACT ONE, SCENE SEVENTEEN

MINISTRY OF MAGIC, MEETING ROOM

HARRY, HERMIONE, GINNY, and DRACO pace around a small room. All four of them are racked with

worry.

DRACO: Have we searched thoroughly beside the tracks?

HARRY: My department have searched once and are searching again.

DRACO: And the Trolley Witch is not able to tell us anything useful?

HERMIONE: The Trolley Witch is furious. She keeps talking about letting down Ottaline Gambol.

She prides herself on her Hogwarts delivery record.

GINNY: Have there been any instances of magic reported by the Muggles?

HERMIONE: None so far. I have made the Muggle Prime Minister aware and he is filing what is

known as a misper. Sounds like a spell. It isn’t.

DRACO: So now we’re relying on Muggles to find our children? Have we told them about Harry’s

scar too?

HERMIONE tries to puncture the atmosphere that’s developing.

HERMIONE: We’re merely asking the Muggles to help. And who knows how Harry’s scar might be

involved but it’s certainly a matter we’re taking seriously. Our Aurors are currently

investigating anyone involved in Dark Magic and —

DRACO: This is not Death Eater–related.
