DESERTED SIDE STREET NEXT TO THE BANK
[Newt and Jacob Apparate into a side street. Security alarms ring out from the bank and, at the end of the side street, we see crowds gathering, police arriving. Tina runs out of the bank and looks down. She sees Newt wrestling the Niffler back into the case, Jacob cowering by a wall.]
JACOB: Ahhh!
NEWT: For the last time, you pilfering pest – paws off what doesn't belong to you!
"He never listens," Newt shakes his head.
[Newt shuts his case, then looks around at Jacob.]
NEWT: I'm awfully sorry about all that -
JACOB: What the hell was that?
NEWT: Nothing that need concern you. Now unfortunately you have seen far too much, so if you wouldn't mind – if you just stand there – this will be over in a jiffy.
[Newt, trying to find his wand, turns his back on Jacob. Jacob takes the opportunity, seizes his case, and swings it violently at Newt, who is knocked to the ground.]
"Did he really seem that scary to you?" Neville asked Jacob.
"When you see stuff that you've never seen before, I find that it is best to run," Jacob advises him.
JACOB: Sorry.
[Jacob runs for his life. Newt holds his head for a moment and looks after Jacob, who has hurried down the alleyway and into the crowd.
NEWT: Bugger!
"Who says 'bugger?" Harry questions.
"Pirates?" Ron suggests.
[Tina comes walking down the side street with purpose. Newt gathers himself, picks up the case and, trying to be nonchalant, walks towards her. As he passes her, Tina grabs Newt's elbow and they Disapparate.]
"Teen, you were not nonchalant."
"Thanks, Gana."
NARROW ALLEYWAY OPPOSITE BANK
[Newt and Tina Apparate into a cramped, bricked-up alleyway. We can still hear police sirens sounding in the background. Tina, incredulous and out of breath, rounds on Newt.]
TINA: Who are you?
"Your future husband."
"Ha-ha-ha, hilarious."
NEWT: I'm sorry?
TINA: Who are you?
NEWT: Newt Scamander. And you are?
TINA: What's that thing in your case?
NEWT: That's my Niffler. (pointing at hot dog mustard still on Tina's lip) Er, you've got something on your—
TINA: Why in the name of Deliverance Dane did you let that thing loose?
"Who is Deliverance Dane?" Seamus asks.
As Hermione begins a long-winded explanation, Seamus holds his hand up to stop her.
"Never mind, I can live without the info."
NEWT: I didn't mean to – he's incorrigible, you see, anything shiny, he's all over the place-
TINA: You didn't mean to?
