[The students are seated in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, decorated with portraits of its owner: Gilderoy Lockhart; the door to the office opens and Lockhart walks out.]
Lockhart: Let me introduce you to your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher: me, Gilderoy Lockhart.

Everyone let's out an annoyed groan whilst the young Gilderoy gleams with happiness but is a bit upset about everyone's response.

Lockhart: Order of Merlin third class. Honorary member of the dark force defence league, and five times winner of witch weekly's most charming smile award, but I don't talk about that, I didn't get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at it. [Gilderoy laughs whilst everyone just stares at him not amused, Hermione and the girl she sits with look at Lockhart love struck]
Lockhart: I see you all bought a complete set of my books, well done. I thought today we could start with a little quiz, nothing to worry about.
Hermione: [after Lockhart handed her two quizzes] Thank you.
Lockhart: just to check how well you've read them, how much you've taken in.
Ron: [to Maddie] look at all these questions! There all about him.
Madelyn: Sky's lucky not to have him yet. What is Gilderoy Lockhart's favourite colour?
Ron: what is Gilderoy Lockhart's greatest achievement to date?

"Gilderoy! That is not a proper test!" Said Minnie, Lockhart looks down in embarrassment as everyone laughs.

Lockhart: you have thirty minutes. Start. Now. Lockhart: [after the test] tut, tut. Hardly any of you remembered my favourite colour is lilac, that is Hermione Granger, knew my secret ambition is to rid the world of evil, and market my own range of hair care products, good girl. [winks at Hermione]

Most people grimace.

Lockhart: now be warned. It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizard kind, you may find yourselves facing your worst fears in this room, not only no harm can hurt you whilst I'm here, I must ask you not to scream, it might provoke them! [reveals the cage full of Cornish pixies]
Seamus: Cornish pixies? [laughs with Neville].
Lockhart: freshly caught Cornish pixies. Laugh all you want Mr Finnigan, how would you think about them now? [releases the cage and everyone screams]

The pixies create chaos

Lockhart: come on, round them up, round them up. There only pixies.
[some of the pixies grab Neville by the ears and hang him on the chandelier.]
Neville: please get me down!

"Oh my god! Neville sweetheart, were you ok?" Alice asked her son.

"Yep, Maddie and Hermione got me down."

Hermione: [a pixie is pulling her hair] get off me!
Madelyn: no, no, stop. Hold still. [she hits a pixie with a book]
Lockhart: Peskipiksi Pesternomi! [ a pixie grabs his wand and waves it the Skelton falls from the ceiling, a couple of pixies try to grab one of Lockhart's pictures before he gets it and runs to his office] I'll just ask you three to put the rest of them in their cage.

"That's not even a real spell!"

Ron: what do we do now? [all three of them hit the pixies with the books]
Hermione: [gets her wand] Immobulus! [the pixies freezes as Neville finally speaks up]
Neville: why is it always me?
