[it is morning when they arrive at the Burrow, the Weasley family's residence; landing on the ground, they drive straight towards a pig pen, with two pigs relaxing inside, before coming to a complete stop.]
The Weasley's smiled at the sight of their house. And Molly got excited at the prospect of witnessing Mia's very first impressions and reactions to the Burrow.
[Fred walks to the window and opens it to unlock the door.] Fred: Come on. Okay, come on. Shhh! Shhh! [He checks that the coast is clear then beckons the others inside.] Okay, come on.
Lucius and Draco sneered at the house in disgust. Their disdain evident in their expressions. Meanwhile, Narcissa studied the house, acknowledging that while it wasn't a place she would choose to live in herself, she couldn't help but notice the love and homely feel that the Weasley house exuded.
Narcissa noticed her husband's reaction and leaned in to whisper. "It may not be to our standards, but there's something undeniably comforting about it. There's a warmth here that's hard to ignore, isn't there, love?"
Ron: Do you think it'd be all right if we had some of this? [George is half smiling.] George: Yeah, Mum would never know
Charlie chuckled, a knowing glint in his eyes. "You know nothing would get past our mother. She sees everything, even when she pretends not to."
Bill nodded in agreement, a wry smile playing on his lips. "That's for sure. Mum's always one step ahead."
Ron: It's not much, but it's home Mia: I think it's...brilliant [Ron looks up. Sees Mia's mesmerized face. Ron slowly smiles.]
Molly smiled at Mia's words.
Mrs. Weasley: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!? [The boys and Mia nearly jump out of their skin. Mrs. Weasley stands in the doorway, furious. They all hide the breakfast rolls behind their backs. She smiles sweetly at Mia.]
Everyone in the great hall jumped in fright at Molly's sudden outburst. Molly, however, quickly recovered and smiled sheepishly, her embarrassment evident as she realized the attention she had drawn.
Mrs. Weasley: Mia, how wonderful to see you, dear. [She turns back to Fred, George and Ron.] Beds empty! No note! Car gone! You could've died! You could've been seen! [She turns back to Mia.] Of course, I don't blame you, Mia, dear. Ron: They were starving her, Mum! There were bars on his window!
"I thought that you were just trying to get out of trouble. With the kids, you can never know. If I had known, I've would've come and gotten you out of there myself," Molly said sternly, her voice tinged with sadness. She truly felt sorry for not reacting to the bars on the window, like she should have. Her remorse was palpable, reflecting her deep concern and regret for not recognizing the seriousness of the situation sooner.
