[Maddie turns a corner and discovers Nearly Headless Nick, petrified with his head partially detached and floating in place. On the floor just a few feet away is Justin Finch-Fletchey, also petrified. Maddie kneels down to examine his stiff body. As she does so, Filch walks out of a doorway behind him.]
Filch: Caught in the act. [Maddie turns around at the sound of his voice] I'll have you out this time, Potter. Mark my words. [grins wickedly and walks away]
Madelyn: No, Mr. Filch! Y-y-you don't understand-- [breaks off as something else catches her eye; she looks to see another group of spiders scurrying away over the wall and out a window; as she walks to the window, watching the spiders, Filch returns, accompanied by Professor McGonagall; she gasps in shock at the sight of Justin and approaches him, then glances from his body to Maddie] Professor. I swear, I didn't.

"Professor you can't possible think Maddie has that much power to do something like that!? This is dark magic." Said Lily.

"I do not know what I could possible be thinking but in that type of case it probably looked like Maddie did do it." Said Mcgonagall.

Professor McGonagall: This is out of my hands, Potter. [she and Maddie then walk to an opening containing a griffin statue, the entrance to Professor Dumbledore's office] Professor Dumbledore will be waiting for you. [she gestures towards the statue; Maddie approaches] Sherbet Lemon. [she opens her hands at the statue; the statue rotates clockwise and rises, and a staircase comes out of the floor, also rising in a clockwise fashion; Maddie steps onto the staircase, stepping towards a door as the statue comes to a stop]
