Almost ten years after the: DURSLEY's home. The camera pans on a sleeping girl, almost eleven, with a lightning-bolt shaped scar on her forehead.
There is a click, and knocking. Outside, a tall woman, PETUNIA DURSLEY, raps the door.
Petunia: Up. Get up. {Knocks} {sighs} Now! {Smacks door of closet which is the boys bedroom}

A large, tubby boy, DUDLEY DURSLEY, suddenly comes running down the stairs above the closet. He stops half-way down and goes back, jumping on the staircase.
Dudley: Wake up, cousin! We're going to the zoo!
