                           Hagrid?

                                                                 FADE IN:



                 INT. LIVING ROOM, TED'S HOUSE - NIGHT

                 HARRY opens his eyes. He is lying on a sofa. TED TONKS is
                 standing in front of him, watching him anxiously.

                                         TED
                           Hagrid's fine, son. How are you
                           feeling?

                 HARRY sits up quickly.

                                         HARRY
                           Voldemort's coming. He was right
                           there —

                                         TED
                           Easy, now. You're safe here, at
                           least for the moment. They can't
                           get within a hundred yards of the
                           place. I'm Ted Tonks, by the way —
                           Dora's father.

                                         HARRY
                           Tonks, I mean Dora, is she...

                                         TED
                           Dora's all right. She just sent
                           word.

                 A door opens, and HAGRID squeezes through it, limping but
                 alive.

                                         HAGRID
                           Harry!

                 Knocking over two delicate tables, he covers the floor
                 between them in two strides and pulls HARRY into a hug.
                 TED gestures to a hairbrush on a table.

                                         TED
                           The Portkey's right there, if
                           you're ready to take it.

                                         HARRY
                           Yeah. Thanks for everything.

                 HARRY and HAGRID each place a finger on the hairbrush,
                 and a moment later, they seem to jerk upward, and their
                 surroundings are a blur. Finally, they come to a stop...



                 EXT. LIVING ROOM, THE BURROW - NIGHT

                 HARRY and HAGRID arrive in front of a sea of people.
                 Before anyone else has the chance to greet him, LUPIN
                 leaps forward and grabs HARRY.

                                         LUPIN
                           Where and under what circumstances
                           did I first meet Harry Potter?

                                         HARRY
                           Um... on the train to Hogwarts.
                           You saved me from the dementor.

                 LUPIN releases HARRY.

                                         LUPIN
                           I'm sorry, Harry, but I had to
                           check.

                 HARRY surveys the people in the living room. All the fake
                 Harrys are now looking like their real selves again. One
                 of GEORGE's ears is missing; in its place is a clean,
                 gaping hole.

                                         HARRY
                           George, your ear —

                                         GEORGE
                           I'll survive, Harry. I wish I
                           could say the same about everyone

                                         BILL
                           Mad-Eye's dead.

                                         TONKS
                           You-Know-Who acted exactly as Mad
                           Eye expected him to. He chased Mad
                           Eye first, and when Mundungus gave
                           them away he switched to Kingsley.

                                         HARRY
                           And then he came for me. They
                           seemed to recognize me, I don't
                           know how —

                                         HAGRID
                           Harry Disarmed a Death Eater.

                                         LUPIN
                           Harry, the time for Disarming is
                           past! Voldemort is trying to kill
                           you! At least Stun if you're not
                           prepared to kill!

                                         HARRY
                           We were hundreds of feet up! If I
                           Stunned them, they'd have fallen
                           and died, same as if I killed
                           them!

                                         LUPIN
                           You were under attack, Harry. You
                           gave yourself away by not
                           attacking back.

                                         HARRY
                           I won't blast people out of my way
                           just because they're there. That's
                           Voldemort's job.

                 There is an uncomfortable silence.

                                         HAGRID
                           Wait till it gets out yeh did it
                           again, Harry! Fought him off when
                           he was right on top of yeh!

                                         HARRY
                           It wasn't me. My wand acted of its
                           own accord.

                                         HERMIONE
                           You mean you reacted
                           instinctively.

                                         HARRY
                           No. The bike was falling, I
                           couldn't have told you where
                           Voldemort was, but my wand shot a
                           spell at him. It wasn't even a
                           spell I knew.

                           Often, when you're in a pressured
                           situation, you can produce magic
                           you never dreamed of. Small
                           children —

                                         HARRY
                           It wasn't like that!

                                                                 FADE TO:



                 INT. MALFOY MANOR - NIGHT

                 The camera moves through the house. There is nobody in
                 sight, but we hear voices not too far away:

                                         OLLIVANDER (O.S.)
                           I told you, Potter's wand shared a
                           twin core with your wand. That's
                           why your wands connected when you
                           tried to kill him in the graveyard
                           two years ago.

                                         VOLDEMORT (O.S.)
                           You told me the problem would be
                           solved by using a different wand!
                           The wand I used tonight belonged
                           to Lucius. Why was it destroyed?

                                         OLLIVANDER (O.S.)
                           I don't know!
                                (screams)
                           Perhaps, when your wands connected
                           in the graveyard, his wand imbibed
                           some of your power. Perhaps it
                           recognized you tonight, and
                           regurgitated some of your own
                           magic against Lucius's wand.

                 We have moved into the cellar, and as the camera pans
                 across the room, we see OLLIVANDER lying in rags upon the
                 stone floor, writhing in agony. Before him, with a wand
                 pointed at him, stands VOLDEMORT.

                                         VOLDEMORT
                           You see my problem. I must kill
                           Harry Potter, but all of my
                           attempts have been thwarted. There
                           is something you're not telling
                           me.

                                         OLLIVANDER
                           No... please... I beg you...

                                         VOLDEMORT
                           Crucio!

                 OLLIVANDER's scream is even more horrible and drawn-out
                 this time.
