[In the hospital wing the next day, Harry is lying in bed with his arm bandaged. He awakens, puts on his glasses, and sits up. There are cards and candy all over. Dumbledore approaches him.]
Dumbledore: Good afternoon, Harry. Ah. Tokens from your admirers?
Harry: Admirers?
Dumbledore: What happened down in the dungeons between you and Professor Quirrell is a complete secret. So, naturally, the whole school knows. [They both smile.] Ah, I see your friend Ronald has saved you the trouble of opening your Chocolate Frogs.
Harry: Ron was here? Is he all right? Is Audrey all right? What about Hermione?
Dumbledore: Fine. They're all fine.
Harry: What happened to the Stone?
Dumbledore: Relax, dear boy. When I arrived, Audrey explained everything to me and handed me the Stone.
Harry: Wait Audrey? She explained to you? She wasn't hurt right?
Dumbledore: Yes, she explained everything to me. She managed perfectly fine, she is a very talented and clever witch, just like your mother. And no she wasn't hurt but she was forced to stay in the Hospital Wing for two days by Madam Pomfrey.
Harry: So she's okay! That's good to know. So what exactly happened to the Stone?
Dumbledore: The Stone has been destroyed. My friend Nicholas and I had a little chat and agreed it was best all around.
Harry: But then, Flamel, he'll die, won't he?
Dumbledore: [sits on the bed.] He has enough Elixir to set his affairs in order. But yes, he will die.
Harry: How is it we get the Stone, sir? One minute Audrey and I were staring in the mirror, and the next...
Dumbledore: Ah. You see, only a person who wanted to find the Stone, find it, but not use it, would be able to get it. That is one of my more brilliant ideas. And between you and me that is saying something.
Harry: Does that mean, with the Stone gone, that is, that Voldemort can never come back?
Dumbledore: Ah, I'm afraid there are ways in which he can return. Harry, do you know why Professor Quirrell couldn't bear to have you touch him? [Harry shakes his head.] It was because of your mother. She sacrificed herself for you and Audrey. And that kind of act leaves a mark. [Harry touches his scar.] No, no, this kind of mark cannot be seen. It lives in your very skin.
Harry: What is it?
Dumbledore: Love, Harry. Love. [Pats Harry's head gently and stands up.] Ah. Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans. I was most unfortunate in my youth to come across a vomit-flavoured one. And since then, I'm afraid I've lost my liking for them. But I think I could be safe with a nice toffee. [takes brown bean and eats it.] Mm. Alas! Earwax.House Cup Winner
[Harry with his arm still bandaged enters a corridor where up on a stairwell balcony, Hermione, Audrey, and Ron are talking. They stop when they see Harry and lean over the railing.]
Harry: [smiles at his twin] Audrey! All right there?
Audrey: [smiles back] I've never been better. You?
Harry: [as he shrugs] All right. All right there, Ron?
Ron: All right.
Harry: Hermione?
