In this episode, we discuss characters that don't deserve a second chance. Enjoy!

Topics/Summary:

·      1:30 Umbridge. She will never deserve a second chance. She was an evil toad in the books and and an even worse person in the books. She likely didn’t have a good time of it when she was carried away by the centaurs, but it’s hard to feel bad for someone who was as horrible as her.

·      7:37 Bellatrix. She’s a hotshot in the death eater business ladder, and she is making her way up. That’s only because she is a terrible person who kills and tortures. In the third book, she breaks out of Azkaban and then kills Sirius in the fifth. These aren’t actions that we can forgive.

·      13:46 Lucius. This one isn’t as certain, and I might revise my original thoughts to say that he does deserve a second chance. He seems like a mean person on the outside, but as the story progresses, we realize that perhaps what he really wants is family. It becomes increasingly obvious that that is what he really desires.

·      17:55 Peter Pettigrew. Peter searches for power, and the biggest bully on the playground. This leads to his betrayal of James and Lily, and eventually why his hand exacts revenge on him in his last moments. He has no loyalty, and therefore no honor.

·      22:16 Quirrell. He isn’t pure evil like some of these characters are, but he still doesn’t deserve a second chance because I don’t think he would make the most of it. He only seeks power, and he certainly finds it. He succumbs to Voldemort’s draw.

·      25:25 Voldemort is not on this list. He has a complicated past with a lot of dark twists and turns, which leads to his complexity as a character as we know him. I don’t think we can fully understand him, so perhaps a second chance would give him the opportunity to choose a better path.
