Iris knocks on the door gently asking Hermione what's wrong and telling her the boys are gone. Hermione cracks the door open nervously showing her transformed into a human-like cat. Hermione immediately starts crying I must have grabbed her cat's hair, not hers. Iris nods before reassuring her they will fix this Hermione nods with a slight whimper saying ok.
Iris goes to grab the invisibility cloak throwing it over Hermione who is very grateful that Iris thought to grab the cloak not wanting people to see her like this. Iris drops Hermione off going to give her privacy but Hermione reaches out to grab her asking in a shy voice "Will you stay?" Iris smiles before nodding giving her a soft smile and sitting down next to her. Hermione relaxes when she realizes Iris is staying with her.
Lily smiles at the screen so proud of how caring her daughter is. Hermione also smiles at the memory remembering and being grateful that Iris never once laughed or made her feel stupid for her mistake.
Rebekah feels horrible for the young girl on screen but she also sends a smirk to her future sister-in-law. Iris has a smirk of her own knowing exactly what her sister-in-law is thinking and wanting. A small laugh slipped as she remembered the bitchy doppelganger with pig features and them making her think it was permanent.
Harry and Ron walk down a staircase to a corridor.
Harry as Goyle says "I think the Slytherin common room's this way." Ron as Crable nods both heading that way only to be stopped by Ron's brother Percy saying "Excuse me." Ron gasps before asking "What are you doing down here? [Harry hits him] I mean... [tries to sound like Crabbe] ...what are you doing down here?
Percy in a matter-of-fact tone says "I happen to be a school prefect. You, on the other hand, have no business wandering the corridors at this time of night. What are your names again?"
Harry as Goyle starts trying to think of a lie "Uh, I'm..." Only to be cut off when Draco enters the corridor "Crabbe, Goyle, where have you two been? Pigging out in the Great Hall all this time? [notices Harry's glasses] Why are you wearing glasses?"
Harry, as Goyle takes the glasses off, says, "Oh, um, reading." Draco looks shocked. "Reading? I didn't know you could read. "[turns to Percy] And what are you doing down here, Weasley?" Percy glares at the boy. "Mind your attitude, Malfoy."
This causes snorts to be heard around the great hall not expecting Draco to say that especially in such a serious voice.
Draco leads Harry and Ron away. Arriving in the Slytherin common room, Draco lounges on a sofa "Well, sit down." Harry and Ron take seats on another sofa as Draco starts talking again. "You'd never know the Weasleys were pure-bloods, the way they behave. They're an embarrassment to the wizarding world, all of them! [Ron clenches a fist and looks angry.] What's wrong with you, Crabbe?" Harry gives him a bump Ron grunts out through clenched teeth "Stomach ache."
Draco still looking suspicious but decides to shake it off "You know, I'm surprised The Daily Prophet hasn't done a report on all these attacks. I suppose Dumbledore's trying to hush it all up. Father always said that Dumbledore was the worst thing that ever happened to this place."
Harry as Goyle gets angry and shouts "You're wrong!"
Draco getting to his feet says "What? You think there's somewhere here who's worse than Dumbledore? Well? Do you?"
Harry as Goyle thinks fast and says "Iris and Harry Potter?" Ron nods vigorously. Draco considers this for a moment but before he has a chance to reply a large older Slytherin storms up and picks Harry as Goyle up by his robe. "You can talk about Harry all you want but you leave Iris's name out of your mouth got it!" Harry in a state of shock at the sudden action and of a Slytherin defending Iris just nods quickly before the older boy just drops him back to the floor and storms off. An older Slytherin girl quickly apologizes to who she thought was Goyle saying "I am sorry about him he is trying to get a marriage contract drawn up for him and Iris but since she currently lives with muggles it is proving harder than he would like." She waits for a response but when she just sees the boy's face change to anger and he doesn't say anything she walks out after her friend.
