<li>Harry sometimes sees things others don’t, but how often is death involved in the process? Laura connects some threads for us.</li>
<li>How fair or unfair is Luna’s assertion that Hagrid is not well-loved by the Ravenclaws?</li>
<li>According to the Sorting Hat, Godric and Salazar were BEST FRIENDS!</li>
<li>The Hat could use some career advice right about now, it’s second guessing its own mission.</li>
<li>Someone interrupts Nick talking about previous times the Hat has given a warning. So, we guess at when that might have occurred.</li>
<li>Enter Umbridge, an Orwellian villain who talks way too much to bury her sinister intent.</li>
<li>Fortunately, HermioneGPT can explain the speech to Ron, Harry, and anyone who accidentally fell asleep.</li>
<li>Harry’s own House mates are on their way toward believing the lies of the Daily Prophet. But Neville is coming into his own, and defends Harry. You love to see it.</li>
