Location: Entrance to Professor Dumbledore’s Office, June 1997

LOUISA SNAPE, Head Girl walks up to the Gargoyles at the entrance to the Headmaster’s Office.

LOUISA SNAPE: Toffee Eclairs!

The gargoyles move around and a marble staircase is revealed. She walks up and knocks on the door.

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: Come in Louisa, please take a seat. (she nods and sits down)

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: How are you, on this fine evening.

LOUISA SNAPE: You’re asking about my health?

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: I am asking a great deal from you Louisa, I know that. Would you oblige me by answering?

LOUISA SNAPE: I’m fine.

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: And Master Draco?

LOUISA SNAPE: Fine.

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: I see.

LOUISA SNAPE: May I ask about you?

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: You may, but I believe the reason I brought you here may answer that.

LOUISA SNAPE: Professor?

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: The vanishing cabinet does not work without a particular piece.

LOUISA SNAPE: Yes sir.

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: As I told you, it is specific to the item and was removed from the cabinet when it was
brought here. I’m afraid that time may not be on my side. I believe you elves say “eloch nach slshinoi”?

LOUISA SNAPE: (smiling at his pronunciation) something like that Professor.

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: Hmm, This piece will help you. I did not anticipate Mr Malfoys… health conditions.
However, I believe you can find a way.

LOUISA SNAPE: Yes sir. (takes a piece that looks like a cog)

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: You have proved to me and your father how capable you are. But make sure that you stay true to you.

LOUISA SNAPE: Yes sir.

PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE: If you would be so kind and give this parchment to Harry.

LOUISA SNAPE: Yes Sir.
