[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.

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

Ron: It’s not much, but it’s home

Sylvia: I think it’s...brilliant

[Ron looks up. Sees Sylvia 's mesmerized face. Ron slowly smiles.]

Mrs. Weasley: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!?

[The boys and the girl 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 Sylvia.]

Mrs. Weasley: Sylvia, 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 Sylvia.] Of course, I don’t blame you, Sylvia, dear.

Tom : Wow she's really sucking up to you
Sylvia : Yea
Nagini : Tell me why we should not kill them
Sylvia : I don't care about others expect the twins
Nagini : So after this can we kill them
Sylvia : Sure Take it as my treat for you
Nagini : Ohh sweetheart I love you so much
Sylvia : I love you too
Kol : Ahem she's mine (looking at nagini)

Nagini and kol began to bicker and others only watched as the drama goes...

Ron: They were starving her, Mum! There were bars on her window!

Mrs. Weasley: Well, you’d best hope that I don’t put bars on your window, Ronald Weasley! [She starts softening instantly.] Come on, Sylvia. Time for a spot of breakfast. [Ginny is running down the stairs.] Here we are, Sylvia. Now tuck in. That's it. There we go.

Ginny: Mum. Mummy, have you seen my jumper?

Mrs. Weasley: Yes dear. It was on the cat [Ginny looked wide eyed at Sylvia.]

Sylvia: Hello. [Ginny runs off] W-what did I do?

Ron: Ginny. She's been talking about you all summer. Bit annoying, really.
[Mr. Weasley comes in.]

Mr. Weasley: Morning, Weasleys.

Fred, George and Ron: Morning, Dad.

Mrs. Weasley: Morning Arthur!

Mr. Weasley: What a night. Nine raids. Nine!

Sylvia: [to Ron] Raids?

Ron: Dad works in the Ministry of Magic. In the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office. Dad loves Muggles. Thinks they're fascinating

Mr. Weasley: [sitting down] Well now. Ah. [glancing at their guest] And who are you?

Sylvia: Oh, sorry sir. I’m Sylvia, sir, Sylvia Potter

Mr. Weasley: Good Lord, are you really? Ron’s told us all about you, of course. When did she get here?

Mrs. Weasley: (darkly) This morning. Your sons flew that enchanted car of yours to Surrey and back last night

Mr. Weasley: Did you really! How’d it go?!
[Mr. Weasley catches Mrs. Weasley's eye. Fred, George, Ron and Sylvia are hiding their laughter.]

Fred, George, Ron and Sylvia: Oh, it...

Mrs. Weasley: Arthur!

[Everyone except Molly is trying very hard to stop laughing.]

Mr. Weasley: I mean...that was very wrong, indeed, boys. Very wrong of you. Now, Harry, you must know all about Muggles. Tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?

Sylvia: Oh, umm...

[An owl screeches in the distance]

Mrs. Weasley: Well, that’ll be Errol with the post. [Errol flies right towards the house, but slams into the window and falls] Oh, fetch it will you Percy, please?

Percy: [getting up and walking to the window] Errol... [he rises up]

Ron: He’s always doing that.

Percy: [taking the letters from Errol and examining them] Oh look, it’s our Hogwarts letters. And they’ve sent us Sylvia’s as well.

Mr. Weasley: Dumbledore must know you’re here, Sylvia. Doesn’t miss a trick, that man.

Sylvia : Of course he won't because he was the one who put me with my muggle family and not my godfather or my uncle
Kol : Is he dead? Because if isn't then I'm going to kill him
Tom : Oh don't worry I killed him
Sylvia : Why did you kill him, because you wanted that wand at all cost
Tom : Hey I'm sorry ok I was afraid of death and my soul is back as one I can see clearly of what I've done to you and my love but I'm not sorry about killing others
Kol : Maybe me and Tom can go on a killing spree
Sylvia and Nagini : NO
Tom : why?
Kol : Yea baby why
Elijah : because they know that if you went on a killing spree there will be a bloodshed all over the country
Kol : Whatever

Mrs. Weasley: Oh, no.

Fred: This lot won’t come cheap, Mum. The spell books alone are very expensive.

Mrs. Weasley: We’ll manage. Right then. There’s only one place we’re going to get all of this: Diagon Alley.
