Once everyone was settled in after the break, the screen resumes

The screen shows Harry, with his trolley and Hagrid walking side by side at King's Cross Station. A couple looks at Hagrid suspiciously

"What're you looking at?" Hagrid grumbles as he turns to look at the couple as they walk past him. He then looks at his watch, "Blimey, is that the time? Sorry, Harry, I'm gonna have to leave you. Dumbledore will be wanting his, uh... well, he'll be wanting to see me. Now, uh, your train leaves in 10 minutes. Here's your ticket." He hands Harry a train ticket, "Stick to it, Harry, that's very important. Stick to your ticket." He tells the boy sternly

Harry looks down at his ticket,"Platform 9¾? But, Hagrid, there must be a mistake. This says Platform 9¾. There's no such thing, is there?" He looks up, only to see that Hagrid has vanished

"You left him alone without even telling him how to get on the train?" Professor McGonagall asks Hagrid, although it sounded more like she was scolding him with the scathing look on her face

"I-I guess I did," Hagrid stutters slightly, his face a deep shade of red

Harry is then shown walking down a lane between the trains. A man rushes by him muttering a 'sorry' as he moves ahead of the boy

"Excuse me, excuse me," Harry calls to a guard that's talking to a lady

"Please tell me you didn't," Celestia mutters to her friend. Harry doesn't reply, he only whistles and looks away from her, "Oh my Merlin," she whispers to herself

"Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me where I might find Platform 9¾?" Harry asks the man in front of him

"YOU FOOLISH BOY, YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST TELL HIM THAT THE WIZARDING WORLD EXISTS," Walburga yells

"Oh give him a break lady, he was JUST introduced to the Wizarding World and he didn't get to see much of the world with the people he lived with. Get your head out of your pureblood arse and shut the fuck up!" Ginny glares at the annoying lady

Celestia snickers, high-fiving Ginny out of everyone's eyesight

"9¾? Think you're being funny, do ya?" He raises an eyebrow and walks away, muttering, "9¾" in disbelief 

Harry watches the man walk away, before catching sight of a family of redheads, pushing carts

"It's the same year after year? Always packed with Muggles, of course," The woman says to her family

"Muggles?" Harry asks himself, following the family slowly

"Molly!!" The Prewitt twins exclaim as they shake their sister's shoulders excitedly

"Stop that!" She slaps them away

"Come on. Platform 9¾ this way!" She exclaims to her children, "All right, Percy, you first." She tells one of the boys when they stop in front of a brick wall

The redhead boy, Percy, steps forward and runs towards the brick wall between Platforms 9 and 10. But instead of running into it and falling on the ground in pain, like Harry thought he would've, he ended up going right through it

Harry is shown looking amazed, he looks around to see if anyone else saw what he did

"I thought I was going crazy," Harry laughs

The lady turns to look at her other sons, "Fred, you next," she motions to the wall with her head

The camera pans to twin boys

"He's not Fred, I am!" One of the twins exclaims

"Honestly, woman, you call yourself our mother," The other twin says, shaking his head
