Speaker 1 (00:00):
Book six, page four hundred twenty.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
May I have your attention?
Speaker 3 (00:04):
Please?
Speaker 4 (00:08):
May I have your attention? Please?
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Well, the real Weird Sisters please stand up.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
We're gonna have a problem here were the Weird Sisters.
Were of the real Weird Sisters. All you are the
Weird Sisters are fine, but not the Vikers. Well, the
real Weird Sisters.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Please stand up, Please stand up, Please stand up.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Hi, and welcome to the Real Weird Sisters.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I'm Alice and I'm Martha.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
And today we're here to talk about the four hundred
and twentieth page of Harry Potter and the Half Blood
Prince Martha. It's about to be four to twenty up
in here.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, yep, book six four. And this is a very
fitting page for silliness.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
This is probably like I feel like, if this had
been the very first page we had done, it would
have seemed like we rigged it, because it's honestly perfect
for this.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Yes it is.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
It's a page that I've done impressions of before. Let's
just put it that way. So I think, without further ado,
we should just jump right in.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yes, So, as a little hint, this page is set
in the chapter of Elf.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Tails yes, yes, elf tails are seen in this stage.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
There are several elf tails right here on this page.
So all right, so shall we proceed with Well, do
we need to do our housekeeping from last week?
Speaker 4 (01:27):
First? Let everyone know I.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Guess the people have probably been on the edges of
their seats, Yeah, waiting for the bad name winner.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I mean I would say we'll come back later to
the housekeeping, but I don't think that's how it works
on here. So okay, So we did get our results
of our poll, and we had a clear winner this week.
It wasn't quite as close as some of the other
weeks have been. I will say we had a clear
loser as well. Clear loser was Twins Parents, So sorry
(01:56):
to the that was your uh, that was my one contribution.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Yeah, exactly a project.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Usually every week I come up with one and you
come up with three, and so far I think most
of mine have won.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
But this week, this is the.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
First time that your suggestion.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Flopped total flop.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
I will have to I do have to say, like
the apostrophe in there after the Twins like after Twins
kind of does like make it clunky.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
And I think not having the I do think the
Twins Parents might be a better band name, but yeah,
on the page it was the potill Twins Parents that
we could read a word right.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Okay, so twins Parents, thank you to the four of
you who voted for that.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
You stand with me. I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I as a little bit surprised how few votes it got,
but I think it's maybe not so much on Twins
Parents as it is on the other ones just being
so good.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
They were so good.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Okay, are in third place? We had two best friends
with eighteen percent, in second place with twenty five percent,
we had something with the Order, And in.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
First place with fifty one percent.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Drum roll please, we had staff Table.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
So I was honestly surprised that that was the clear winner.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, it was kind of a bad week for band names,
and I think it that way.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
To be fair to you, Alice, I do think that
you also came up with staff Table, or at least
you pretended like you'd also been speaking of table, because
I said staff tableed, I think you said, like, oh yeah,
thinking of that too. Yeah, well I had I had
kind of been thinking it, but I didn't think it
was very good, so I can't take credit.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Yeah, that was all on you.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Okay, Well, I think if we were both thinking and
it does count a little bit for both of us.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Okay, So that that's pretty much the end of our housekeeping.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Hopefully this week we have a few.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I think there are a couple better band names.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Spoiler alert.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I've got a couple that I think are pretty funny already. Okay, good, okay,
Well Alice has a couple, it must be a good week.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, exactly, I've got two, to be exact, and we'll
see some sometimes, like as we talk about the page,
more ideas come to me, so we'll.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
See how it usually is for me too.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Okay, So shall we go ahead and read this page?
Like I said, it's in Elf Tales, chapter nineteen, and.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Other than that, I don't think it needs any introduction.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I don't think so, all right, so I have to
jump in with dialogue right away. And I do like
when these one page at the times do start with
the first like start at a paragraph like a nuclear craft,
which is how this one is.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
So all right.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
I was watching that potty, he told Harry, indignantly, pointing
at the fight below, before letting out a loud cackle.
Look at the echo creatures squabbling boichie boichee, punchee punchee.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Creature will not insult Harry Potter in front of Dobby. Doo,
he won, don't.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Dobby will shot creature's mouth for him, cried Dobby in
a high pitched voice. Hicky scratching, cried Peeves, happily now
pelting bits of talk at the elves to enrage them further.
Twaky poky creature will say what he likes about his master.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Oh yes, and what a master he is? A filthy
friend of what bloods are? What creature's mistress say?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Exactly what creature's mistress would have said?
Speaker 6 (05:20):
They did not find out, for at that moment, Dobby
sank his nobby little fisty creature into creature's mouth and
knocked out half his teeth. Harry and Ron both leaped
out of their beds and wrenched the two elves apart,
though they continued to try to kick and punch each other,
egged on by Peeves, who swooped around the lamp squealing.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Stick your fingers up his nosey drawers, cork and policy
is he's Harry aimed his wand at Peeves and said
langlock pee Peeves clutched at his throat, gulped, then swooped
from the room, making up scene gestures, but unable to speak,
owing to the fact that his tongue had just glued
(06:02):
itself to the roof of his mouth. Nice one, said Ron,
appreciatively lifting Dobby into the air so that his flailing
limbs no longer made contact with Creature.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
That was another Prince Hex, wasn't it, Yeah.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Said Harry, twisting Creature's wizzened arm into a half Nelson.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Right, I'm forbidding you to fight each other. Well, and
that's the end of the page.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I have to say it's a little hard to do
Ron and Harry impressions after doing those other three. Well,
I think you managed just fine. But yeah, yeah, put
you to the test. Put you to the test, and
you had to do five different voices on this page.
And they were five very unique voices.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
I did, I mean they were not the same impression?
Speaker 2 (06:48):
No, I'm serious, five unique voices.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
I knew this would be a bit tough, because.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Sometimes your Peeves and your Dobby can kind of bleed
into one another.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
But I think you pulled that one off.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Thank you. Yeah, I'm glad to hear it.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
This almost, like I said, this almost feels like a
like a fan fiction somebody would write to have us
read out.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, totally. The only thing that'd make it better is
if Myrtle was.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
There or hepsibah. Well, yeah, that would definitely be fan fiction.
What what context would have Hepsiba the same? Well, that's
why I'm saying fan fiction.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Yeah, this is I mean, this is realistic.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
I mean, obviously it happens for real, but it's uh,
you know, they are all living at Hogwarts, so it
makes sense that they would all be in the same Yeah,
we've got we've got yeah, the first meeting of Peeves, Dobby,
and Creature in one scene together here, so.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
You know they might have hung out before this, right.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
That we've seen they have a lot in common.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
So exactly. First of all, it's not clear we have
to put the context.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
This is something we probably I mean we've sort of
started doing it with the page number or sorry, with
the chapter number and chapter title and stuff. But we
do have to kind of contect sctualize these pages sometimes.
And just to be clear, the setting of this page
is not mentioned, but it is the hospital wing. Yeah,
they're in the hospital wing. Harry and Ron both do
you remember why they're in the hospital wing? And now
(08:13):
I'm trying to Ron is there because it's after his
uh thing, right, right, and then Harry there after a
quidditch accident, right, So that's why they're both there. That's
why for a second, for a second, I was like, wait,
why are they both there? It's like Flagon hit the
blooder at Harry, right, and then Harry wakes up in
the hospital wing and Ron's laughing, laughing at him, and
(08:34):
then he's guffawing about Lunar's amazing commentary loses lookie.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
So anyway, then this is in the middle of the
night too. That's another important thing to note that they
show up there in the middle of the night.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
And then I mean it's it's kind of Harry has
summoned them there, right.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yes, Harry asked for cree sure now this is uh
he he had just not to look at the previous
page too much, but I did just double check.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
He he called creature.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
This is he kind of wishing them, Yeah, exactly, He's
about to ask Creature to do this.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
He didn't expect Dobby to come along.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
But the kind of we can surmise that what happened
was Creature got the summons from Harry. He was in
the kitchen and Dobby heard him and he said something
about like my wretched, horrible master, and Dobby was like, Creature,
not insult Harry Potch exactly, and then that's why Dobby's there.
(09:39):
And of course Peeves was just being entertained by this.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Yeah, he really enjoys watching house elves fight.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Yeah, it's like you watching housewives exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Okay, So, yeah, lots going on on this page and
this one I do feel like put me to the
test as far as trying to remember the context more
than some of the other pages that we've had.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, because just Elf Tails itself is not necessarily the
most clear chapter time. I mean, obviously we know that
that's why he hires the tails and stuff, but yeah, right,
I was a little bit confused at first. I was like,
is this after he's already put them to the give them,
given them this task just stick to Malfoy like a
(10:20):
couple of water plasters, or is this Oh I wish
we would this is this is before? Yeah, that's gonna
be the end of the chapter. It's because that's a
great Singer at the end of the chapter stick to
like a couple of water plasters.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
But yeah, that's beautiful, simply too for literary device watch point.
But yeah, that that's where we're at right now.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Yeah, so, speaking of literary devices, we didn't really have
many literary devices, except for maybe Peeves painting quite the
pictures for us of things that he wants Dobby and
Creature to do to one another. Stick your fingers up
his nose. He draws his cork, which, by the way,
what does that mean?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I think, like you draw the cork, Like, is that
like their nose, Like, don't you say, gotcha cork or something?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
If you grab somebody's nose.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Maybe, but draw his cork and pull his ears ease,
But he just said nosey a minute ago, so I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Oh yeah, well maybe draw his cork. Is that like
something with the mouth. Yeah, I don't. Let's look that
up because that might be our lesson of the week. Uhraw,
Well here I'm seeing bloody nose.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
No, that's not what I saw, So we'll see it.
Says to uncork ones pent up emotions, So.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Like, that's not what Peeves is referring to.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Maybe but well, this is what AI is telling me.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Drawing the cork is an old, somewhat antiquated phrase meaning
to give someone a physical beating, specifically a bloody nose.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Oh okay, okay, yeah, I suppose that would make sense.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
I was thinking it would read wine drawing for like
red wine like starts pouring from you. Yeah, but that
sees some beautiful imagery coming to us from Peeves. Yeah, exactly,
So that's an old idiom that Peeves has brought to us.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Yeah, thank you very device, Thank you Peeves. And yeah,
other than that, I don't think there was a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
I mean, he also Peeves does have a tendency to
use on him on a.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Pia and uhtchy tweaky poky, to use some of his
own bitey bitey punchy punchy or whatever.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Like I obviously this is like the quintessential Peeves scene.
I feel like to do what Peeves impression for. But
does he always do so many I know he calls
Potter or Harry Potter potty, but like, is he always
adds so many i ees and whys to the end
of words.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I guess that's kind of his thing.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I think it kind of has been his thing forever,
but I do feel like maybe by this point in
the series it's got exaggerated.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
It's even a bated.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah, I will say this is going to be kind
of a hard page to find that Ojo she didn't.
But just to go a little bit of housekeeping, we
already did our housekeeper cuing segment, but Dave was kind
of reminding us we don't necessarily have to address every
every segment if they're not going to naturally come up.
But there are going to be sub segments that we
(13:23):
have to do every week, even if they're not naturally
there on the page, such an MVB MVB obviously and
Ojo she didn't. I do think we have to keep
in every week, so we just have the reason for
some of these.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I agree, I think some of them.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I agree that we can cut if not if they
don't really fit. But I do think some of them
we need to get creative with.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
So exactly, so I was thinking for the Ojo she didn't,
just to jump to that. Yeah, it's kind of back
to the one inch teeth thing, but the Dobby knocking
out half of Creature's teeth excessive, Like is that features
now half his teeth are gone?
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Well I kind of wondered about that too, and I
was kind of thinking about it, and I was like, well,
I guess he is really old, so his teeth are maybe,
you know, not the strongest, but half his teeth does
seem like an exaggeration.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Well, and also like I guess maybe since it's a
magical world, like maybe it's easier to like put them
back in or something. But it does, like it just
seems like a lot that are just gone now too.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah, And I felt like that was possibly a bit
of an exaggeration, but yeah, that might be you.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Know, a little bit too much.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
And it's like, really, Dobby, like you were really angry here,
like Dobby, Like, I just feel like Dobby needs to
choose peace.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Dobby could probably benefit from going to some anger management
courses because he really flies off the handle when he
hears anything said slightly negative about it.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
He needs to like learn to not listen to the haters.
I mean, to be.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Fair, Dobby has had very probably very.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Poor models of this in his life and having grown
up in the Malfoy manner. But at the same time,
I do think he could learn and grow. I mean,
we admire how loyal he is to Harry, but it's
also like, okay, Dobby, take it easy.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Like it's like what I tell my middle schoolers, you know,
like just learn to like sometimes the most powerful thing
you could do is just step away, you know, like
just ignore.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Like honestly, you might feel weak doing it, but actually
it's the most mature thing to do at times.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
The other ojo she didn't I also kind of thought
could be a burn of the week was when.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Harry twisted creatures wizened arm.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
I was like, was that necessary.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Half Nelson too? What is a half Nelson?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I've known I've heard that phrase before, but I looked
it up and it turns out it's like a wrestling pose.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
That's what I thought.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Yeah, yeah, where you kind of have their arm twisted
behind them so they can't they're kind of incapacitated.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Well, so, speaking of literary device, watch, what year did
this book come out?
Speaker 1 (16:19):
I think this one came out in two thousand and.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Five and five?
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Yes, okay, so maybe the the movie Half Nelson starring
Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Could that be an allusion to this that came out
two thousand and six.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Oh okay, well it's so close in time period, I
feel like it has to be.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
So, the story of Half Nelson, if you're not familiar,
I'm just looking at Wikipedia, concerns an inner city middle
school teacher who forms a friendship with a student after
she discovers that he has a drug habit. So I'm
not sure who is what what this is referring to,
or what the connection is here, but I'm thinking maybe
(17:05):
like Peeves could be this inner city middle school teacher
with a drug habit, and these little house selves could
be the students. That kind of Yeah, that does the
shouldn't really be pretty plausible. Yeah, so I don't know
that movie I think might be an illusion. Yeah, I
don't really know why that movie is called Half Nelson.
Speaker 4 (17:28):
Yeah, is there any wrestling in the movie?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
No?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
From what from the plot summary here?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, when I looked it up originally, like I found
Half Nelson as the first like the first thing that
came up was the movie, and I was like, I
don't understand this is the teacher's name, mister.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
Nelson or something.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
That's what I was That's what I was thinking too.
And there's nobody with the last name Nelson in the
movie Weird.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
I wonder what that means.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Then, Yeah, maybe like the concept of a because a
half nelson is when a wrestler places an arm under
one of the opponent's arms from behind and exerts pressure
with the palm on the back of the opponent's neck.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
So maybe it's like he feels the pressure being a teacher. Mmmm.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Yeah, it's possible.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
And uh, half nelson sounds like it might be an
illegal move now.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Oh okay, well maybe that's why I didn't come up
straight away.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yeah, so Harry kind of breaking the law here with
that twisting creature's wizzened arb into a half nelson.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
I mean, I didn't know if that was the burn
of the week. Do you see another? More like, did
you have another burn of the week?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
I was like kind of struggling with the burn of
the week.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
I mean, Ron saying nice one about gluing the the
tongue to the roof of Peeves's mouth.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
I mean it's a little bit of a burn.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I guess Harry kind of burned Peeves when he said langlock, langlock.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
He aimed his wand at Peeves. I know it's a
prince hext, but it's a very loop and move.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
It totally is.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I feel like any time, maybe that's the humble brag
of the week, because I feel like anytime you kind
of have.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
A moment where you're being loop in, you're.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Kind of well.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I think I think that the the humble brag of
the week is Yeah, said Harry about that was another
prince hex was it it?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Yeah, he's not very like yeah, he's he's pretty like
casual about it, right, Ran nice one and Harry, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, Wady was is the spell that Lupin uses on?
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Yeah, this is pretty much like a full circle moment
as far as Harry channeling loop In when.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Lupin uh got peeves with Waddy was right, this is
a useful little spell.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Please watch closely, wa was Yeah, so I did.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
I did think other birds of the week could just
be like the filthy friend of mud bloods.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
What what creatures mistress say?
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Yeah, it's not very nice to include that slur in there, though,
or Dobby's nobbly little fist. I do think it's kind
of funny when I think the funny part about that
line is when he says, oh, yes, and what a
master he is.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Oh yeah, that is a good one. Yeah. Actually that
might be the best burden of what a master he is.
What a master he is? I also do like Doppy
will shut Creature's mouth for him.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
That's more like the threat of the week.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Yeah, the threat of the week comes from Dobby. Yeah,
I think I actually think, yeah that what a master
he is is the best. He's so sarcastic. Creature is
very shady.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
H he is the king of shade.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
And it's pretty funny when Creature just starts like monologue
of soliloquy ing even though, like you know, there's people there,
he's doing a soliloquy.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Right, nobody's Yeah, he doesn't care who's listening.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Correct. The humble bragg of the week, I think we
do have to give to the Yeah it was another
prince sex.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah yeah, because it's like, no big deal.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Yeah it was another prince sex.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Okay, Harry typical, Yeah, very typical.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
So adverb of the week were I'm happy to report
that we are back to an adverb heavy page.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Yes we are.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
This is an adverb heavy page like this is this
is vintage author As far as number of adverbs on
this page.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Yeah, So we started with.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Peeves telling Harry something indignantly.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Yeah, then we have Peeves crying happily, and then we
have uh, let's see what was the next one.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Ron said, appreciatively.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Yeah, those are the three main ones on the page.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Of course, we also have a preposent or sorry adverbial
claw of Dobby in a high pitched voice. And then
we have some of the words that we're talking about,
like Peeves squealing later as well.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
But I think I think indignantly, yeah, indignantly, and that's
also one that the author does really like to use
quite fit.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I remember indignant and incredulous were two words that I
like learned that I credit Harry Potter for why I
know those words so well. Yeah, so, and I do
feel like this page indignantly also sort of like thematically
sums up the page. Each of the three little creatures here, Creature, Dobby,
(22:41):
and Peeves each is quite indignant about different things. Yeah,
it's funny that Peeves is the one who says it,
who has the indignant were adverb, because he's probably the
least indignant on the.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I mean, I guess it's sort of like almost sarcastically indignant.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
How I was watching that, Potty, It's like, really, do
you have to be that outraged?
Speaker 2 (23:04):
But also like it was probably not that hard for
him to just operate with them, you know, yeah exactly,
Like Okay, actually a little like behind the scenes here,
like how long do you think it took? Like did
Peeves figure out where they were immediately?
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Well?
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I know that's I don't quite know how that all works,
and I mean, yeah, it seems always like the apparition
part of the elf being summoned happens immediately, but there
has to have.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Been well yeah, I mean I know that, like they're
required to come, but like clearly Creature had a reaction
to Harry summoning him, so he probably took a little
bit of time. And then I mean, Peeve's probably he
seems like he's pretty aware of where everybody is at
all times.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, he has kind of like an internal Marauders map
that he.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Felt exactly, So he probably was like, oh, like Potter
or Potty has summoned Creature and I no Potters in
the Yeah, that's true, So it probably didn't take him
all that long. But it's kind of a it's like
Dobby came along because he was like attached to Creature
because they were fighting, right right, Yeah, it's kind of
(24:14):
interesting to think about the how how Creature got or sorry,
how Peeves got there too. Right, Okay, do you feel
like there's a missed opportunity on this page at all?
I think that this page kind of hits all the boxes,
like we have yeah, Creature, Peeves, and Dobby all in
their element.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Like you said, we kind of did have a missed
opportunity of summoning in Myrtle as well.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Yeah, right, I don't know why Myrtle would have been there,
but it could have been great. That could have been amazing,
And yeah, it's definitely possible that she could have been there.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
I think that on the previous page we have Ron's
reaction a little bit more of like how he's like
completely confused and baffled of why they're there. But I
kind of feel like there could have been a little
bit more of like a ran like reaction.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Yeah, and we do like to have Ron, I feel like,
is usually the one who's incredulous to use your earlier Yeah.
But yeah, so that's true, But I feel like the
missed opportunity here's what could have happened the house, Elves
would have been cleaning Myrtle's bathroom and started fighting. That's
right when he and Peeves showed up to watch that,
(25:27):
and then.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
That's when clean Myrtle's bathroom. That's I mean, probably probably do.
But like I'm just.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Saying, that's that's how we could have gotten Myrtle to
be involved in this scene too, because then if it
would have been the same thing kind of as Peeve, well,
Peeves would have continued to want to watch the fight,
and then Myrtle would have wanted to have an opportunity
to come visit with Harry.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
Yeah, that's true. I could see it a little bit more.
I have to think about it a little bit more.
But I I feel like kind.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Of some rules were broken when Myrtle first left her bathroom, Like, yeah,
I know she like, I feel like she's supposed to
never leave her bathroom, and I know she left it
in the Goblet of Fire the Prefects bathroom scene, but
I feel like that kind of broke what I thought
was the.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
Yeah, I'm not quite sure what the rules with Myrtle
are because.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
It's not I like actual rules.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
It's just like I feel like Myrtle's like whole thing
is that, like she feels bound to stay there.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Yeah, although she loves Harry. So I'm just saying I
feel like that was.
Speaker 4 (26:28):
A missed opportunity.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah. I wonder if the editors asked the author to
add that man and she insisted it. Yeah, probably you
know what would make this page even better?
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Okay, I this move this page is not in the movie.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Sadly Peeves is not in the movie.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
Yeah, that is a missed opportunity in another itself.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah, that's a good point. That's the missed opportunity this week.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
But Hermione's beaded bag? Are we going to take this
page with us? I mean it's not in the movie,
but do you think we missed out on?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Like do you think it should have been? Well?
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I yes, I mean I definitely think that this page
is really essential for Eron Potter because I mean just
like it's very fun and a funny. I don't know,
I just enjoy it a lot. Obviously, I like doing
the impression of it. But I think it's some of
what makes the series great is moments like this where
(27:30):
it's just silliness.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Yeah, I think, like you said, it's not like necessarily
like essential to the plot, but it is. It is
like a really fun scene, and it's a good moment
of some levity in this book, because a.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
Lot of this book is pretty serious.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah, exactly, even though serious has passed on spoiler alert.
So I think that we, yeah, we are taking this
page with us because it's very fun, and like, I
don't taking the page with us doesn't mean it has
to be in the movie.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
I don't know, I know, saying like if to me,
it doesn't necessarily mean is it in the movie, but
it just means like, do we find it really like
important and necessary?
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Well, and I think that the Sapwood Princes movie is
just lacking in so many.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Oh yeah, don't even get me started on that.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, so I think that, I mean, even the whole
like tailing Malfoy concept is not really in the movie.
So I think that, honestly, it could have been if
we had had the concept of creature and well, I
don't know, maybe it would have been.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Too much to try to explain that to audiences. But yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
I guess it just depends.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
But yes, I think as far as the series the
canon goes, I'm taking this page with me.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
Okay, be too.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
All right, well we will be back in just a moment.
We're gonna have an ad break and then we'll return
to finish up the rest of our segments.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Okay, so I think it's.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Time what we hit on our w W G p D.
What would grand Prey do?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
She it would have a heyday with this or a
field day.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
With well, and just to be clear, she does this
is sort of almost on this page we have the
two house Elves is the chapter art for Elk Tales.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
But it's a very weird.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I mean, maybe that's supposed to be them like watching Malfoy.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
I kind of thought it was them like getting their
orders from Harry or something.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
But odd, I kind of I I kind of think
it's supposed to be almost like what they're going to
be doing is they're going to be sneaking around watching.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I don't think that they're like bowing.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Down to Harry there, Yeah, I don't. I guess I
don't know what's happening.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I'm surprised we have this creature creatures buff creatures like
Roy died out. Yeah, he is, his whole back is
super musty. Yeah, and the Bobby is like looks like
a baby in comparison, and they are.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
The shadows behind them are odd because I don't know
what are we trying to convey, some sort of like
ominous tone.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
I don't know why you're not buying what I'm saying about.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
I think that they're not not buying that, but well,
it just to me it seems pretty clearly that they
are hiding. I agree, there is an ominous tone that's
a little weird, but it looks to me like they
are hiding, which would be like they're watching Malfoy.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Possibly.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
The silly thing about that is that doesn't happen, that
doesn't happen in this chapter. I know that that is weird,
but I do think that that's I mean, the title
Elf Tales is like they are They're this is what
they're going to be looking like. So Okay, what all
I'm saying is, I'm surprised that Mary grand.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Prey didn't take this page that we just read and
make that the chapter art, because I feel like that
would be much better than what she chose.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
It would be much better, but it would be a
lot harder. So yeah, probably.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Why, Yeah, I just think it would be fun to
see the two house Elves wrestling, or the scene with
Harry and Ron each holding the house elves.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
Is the that Ron lifting Dobby into the air so
that his flailing limbs no longer made contact with creature.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
That is a pretty good image.
Speaker 8 (31:21):
And Harry twisting Creature's arm into a half nelson, right,
so I would I was thinking that too. Is the
image of the two boys holding the house elves.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
Just I think Mary grand Prey tried to take the
easy way out.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
It's all that. I don't disagree. I am just laughing
to it.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
You was saying, I'm not it's not that I'm not
buying it, and then I say something and you're like,
maybe I'm not.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
I'm not arguing with you.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
I'm just saying I don't understand Mary grand Prai's choice.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Well, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
I think the choice, like we figured out here, is
it was a little bit easier to just.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Draw them just crouching down. Yeah, I'm just saying, but
is dead for the series, and how much money she
probably made off of this, I think a little bit
more effort would have killed her.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I will say she did a good job on the
elves faces.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
I like them.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yeah, I don't necessarily like them, but they look like
how I picture the both of them. I agree, I
think like and maybe besides the creature being roided out,
I think that well, and their hands and feet are
really big.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Yeah, that's a lot. I think.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Besides that part, the proportions are better than some of hers,
right right.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
I think if she had had to put the boys
into it, to have Ron and Harry would have been tough.
That would have been a struggle.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
I think maybe Mary Grant, as much as we've praised
her in the past.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
And then as much as we've grand praised her.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Yeah, I think that she may have been little in
over her depth with this series.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Oh, I don't know, do we know much about her
career outside of this? Like what because like, I don't know,
maybe I don't really know how I don't know that
much about her. I yeah, maybe I'm just my ignorance
is showing here.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
But yeah, okay, well anyway, let's let's just go ahead
and let's just we've we've decided the Mary grand Prex
illustration of the week should have been, Uh, Harry and
Ron each pulling the house elves apart.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
From each other.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
That would have been good, That would have been really good.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Okay, how about uh, how about our MVB.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, this is tough. I mean, Peeves is the one
flying around, right, so seems like closest to a bird
that we have.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
And then the other second option would be Dobby when
he was lifted off the ground, he was lifted lailing limbs.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
But yeah, that's kind of like Peeves is the.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
One flying You're right, right, Yeah, so I think it's
it's got to be Peeves.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Right back to the Grand Prix segment for a moment,
I was gonna say, we don't Grand Prix has illustrated
Peeves before that.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
Yes, when he looks like a genie.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Or something exactly, and I always think it's at friar.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Yeah, that's not at all how I think pe should look.
So I'm not I'm not to be rude, but I'm
not sorry.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
That we don't have Peeves as part of this chapter art.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
That's what I was gonna say, too, is I think
that where there's a reason that neither of us included
Peeves in our suggestion for the ww GPD exactly.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Okay, so we have our MVB. Who do you think
is the real weirdo of this page?
Speaker 3 (34:54):
That's tough because there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
Of real weirdos. Y, Yes, I mean probably Eves for
being so into this fight, I guess, yeah, like why
would he be? I mean, I guess it's entertaining for him?
Or why you mean why would he be the real weirdo?
Or do you mean why would he know?
Speaker 4 (35:12):
Why would he be so into it?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
I'm agreeing with you, Yeah, I mean I think he
just likes watching people fight.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Yeah, and he's bored.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Yeah, right, he doesn't have much to do so right,
and I mean Pete's just naturally as part of who
he is. Yeah, is the real weirdo in general?
Speaker 5 (35:35):
Right?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah, I think that's probably the right choice here. But
I mean Dobby and Creature are both pretty weird too.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Or not true? He just needs to work on his
reactions to things.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, Like you said, I think some training in uh
like the art of zen.
Speaker 3 (35:56):
Zen and the art motorcycle making would be great for him.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
Exactly, or just like an anger management course or practicing
meditation or something like that.
Speaker 4 (36:06):
He needs something to.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Slow himself down and take himself out of these intense
physical reactions to other people.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Poor Dobby, such a sweetheart.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Yeah, we're kind of coming to the to the clothes
where we open at the clothes. We're kind of coming
to the clothes here. As far as our segments go,
I don't feel like there's really a meme of the
week unless you do well the thing with meme of
the week, and sometimes we kind of discover them as
we're going. But yeah, I think that maybe something with
(36:43):
the like, uh, this is fine dog.
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Like uh, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
I don't know the dog and the burning building that's
like this is fine.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I could see that being like
I don't know the people watching this, or.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
Something like Harry or Ron. Yeah, it's tricky. I don't
think we have a name.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
You're right, I mean that was I can see where
you're going with that, but yeah, it's you. You know
what would work actually better the Duck dynasty, like the
two guys yelling.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
At each other. Oh yeah, so it could be like,
you know, we have.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Creature saying my master's a filthy friend of mud Blood's
and Dobby, you will not talk about Harry Potter that way.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
I'll say whatever I want, like.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I appreciate the effort from you. Okay,
or final option that like cat that's being that's like
eating spinach.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Oh yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Well with the angry woman, Yeah that's from house right, Yeah,
that's from Beverly Hills. Yeah, so that could be like
Dobby's like, I'm just literally trying to defend my fred.
Speaker 1 (38:11):
So Dobby would be the ang would be the upset
person shouting.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, and then Creature would just be
like I'll say whatever I want.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
That's yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (38:21):
Yeah. Yeah, okay, well fun meme of the week. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
Okay, all right, I think that means it is time
for the w W t QQO t w b.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Oh yes, okay, So this one's kind of tricky because
it's just such a like goofy page. Yeah I don't oh,
you know, people on kor can come up with questions
for anything, but yeah, I agree, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:49):
I have a question.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
It would be why does Cree why does Peeves insist
on always talking like bitey bitey, punchy, punchy, kicky, scratchy,
tweaky pokey. Yeah, that's a good question, and I feel
like there would be some like the what all person
talking about like the lore of Poltergeist and yeah, but
(39:12):
I was thinking more like a like backstory type of
question of like.
Speaker 3 (39:18):
Like how did Peeves come to be at Hogwarts?
Speaker 4 (39:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:22):
Or what about if it was something like how often
does Peeves hang around the house Elves?
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Yeah, I just like the idea, like it's actually a
good question that I mean, not that I really care
that much, but of why is it that Hogwarts is
Peeves home?
Speaker 4 (39:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:42):
And like you, like you said, you would then get
somebody talking about the lore of Poultergeists, right, being a
know it all about that, So that is very cora
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Yeah, So okay, I yeah, I agree. This page also.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
Doesn't really create that many questions this as far as stuff.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
You would say, But it's like it's just yeah, it's
pretty like straightforward page as far as what's happening there is.
There's nothing to like really dive deeper to analyze, you know. Yeah,
but I do, I mean, I maybe I think Peeves
probably is addressed in the Potomore presence, So I don't
(40:21):
I don't need anybody to answer this necessarily, but I
do wonder what the backstory of how Peeves came to
be at Hogwarts is yeah. I mean, I know I've
read some of that stuff about how like Poltergeister often
in places where kids are and that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
But yeah, yeah, but I think you're right, like it
would be slightly interesting to know specifically Peeves's story.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
Yes, yeah, I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
Though if we don't actually ever find out for real,
or if if it's out there, I don't actually really care.
Speaker 3 (40:59):
That's how I like.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
It probably is out there, and I'm I'm alright not knowing,
but it is something that's like worth asking, I guess right.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
Okay, Well, shall we change course a little bit here
and get to our band.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
Name of the week.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
I think it's time.
Speaker 4 (41:16):
Okay, So I have, like I said, I have a couple.
Do you have any that have stood out to you?
Speaker 3 (41:22):
Well? First one I had was just knocked out.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
Okay, yeah, that sounds like it would be And what
kind of a band are you thinking? Like?
Speaker 3 (41:33):
Punk?
Speaker 4 (41:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (41:35):
I think mine are sort of both like metal, so.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
One minor always punk.
Speaker 4 (41:44):
One I think would be good would be filthy Friend.
Speaker 3 (41:48):
Yeah, yeah, it's kind of gross.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
But and then one that I thought is sort of
funny would be Creature's Mistress.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
Yeah, I like that too.
Speaker 1 (41:59):
That was the first one I saw that popped out
at me. But then Filthy Friend also kind of same thing.
Speaker 2 (42:05):
Yeah, I like phil I like Creature's Mistress better that
that definitely sounds like a metal band. I don't know,
a Filthy Friend. Filthy Friend might actually be like more
like an alternative.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
Yeah, I feel like there's a lot on here, and
now we're getting away from the three three word phrases
and into the two word phrases. But I do think
one that seems kind of funny would be Flailing Limbs.
Speaker 2 (42:28):
Oh yeah, that is pretty good. I thought of obscene gestures. Yeah,
I think flailing Limbs has for a change. Alice is
gonna have three of the four suggestions.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
Okay, flailing Limbs.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
Yeah yeah, another metal band I think, or could be punk.
Speaker 3 (42:43):
I guess that's all it ever is.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
I do think that Two Best Friends was definitely a
like indie.
Speaker 1 (42:53):
Yeah, oh yeah, for sure, like an indie duo.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
But they didn't win so yeah, well.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
The indie duos are not usually successful.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
With like the wider popularity, never win awards. Yeah exactly,
So that makes sense one last option.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
I know we've already done four here, but what about
what about Bidie Bidy Punchy. I know, I did kind
of think like we were we might be like sleeping
on some of Peeves's fun We're crazy. Tweaky Pokey Tweaky
Pokey would probably be my favorite. But I also I
just like the the doubleing of Bidie Bidie Punchy putchy
(43:30):
oh repetition literary device watch.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
Yeah, true, I don't know, I feel like I agree.
Speaker 4 (43:36):
I like the sound of the double, but I feel
like it's.
Speaker 2 (43:39):
Less likely to actually be a band name.
Speaker 3 (43:41):
But we are bitey bity punchy.
Speaker 4 (43:46):
Exactly.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
And then what about Knobbly Little Fist as well?
Speaker 1 (43:51):
You know, we're kind of getting into one narl finger territory.
Speaker 2 (43:54):
I was thinking that was like Jagged Little Pill, how
about Creature's Well, So maybe another option could be I
know we don't necessarily need to add segments, but we
have band name of the week, but what about album
of the week? Because I do feel like Nobbly Little
Fist might be an album title.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
Yeah, I think that would be a band that would
come out by flailing limbs.
Speaker 4 (44:17):
They would put out.
Speaker 3 (44:18):
Nobbly little fist, Yeah, totally.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Creatures Creature's Mistress might put out tweaky pokey Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (44:29):
Yeah, I think you're right.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Like album of the Week also has some potential here. Yeah,
but okay, I think the four options will be knocked
out filthy Friend, Creature's Mistress, and flailing whimbs. I have
to say, I am putting my I'd be putting all
my money onto Creature's Mistress.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Yeah, I think I would too, especially because it's the
like most like, I feel like.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
People will will respond positively. I mean, I actually like
the idea of I know that it's creature Harry Potter
character spelled the Harry Potter way, but I kind of
like the name Creature's Mistress spelled the normal creature way. Yeah,
we can't change it, obviously, it has to be something
that's on the page. But I kind of think Creature's
Mistress the r E a t U R E selling
(45:12):
that would be a pretty cool bad name.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
Yeah for sure. And well I also like that when
you say Creature's Mistress, you like that.
Speaker 2 (45:20):
I also think, just to kind of another side note
here is that all of these band names just would
be perfect for Andy's band in.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Parks and rec Oh, that's one hundred percent what I
think of every time, Like, yeah, exactly, is.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
There all the type of band like type of I.
Speaker 3 (45:35):
Know that they don't do the same music we're saying
that he does rock. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
When he goes through and he's like, says that they're
way too unique. He says they're way too unique to
say to like one genre of music, and he listens
like a bunch of bands, and then somebody's like, so rock.
Speaker 3 (45:53):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (45:54):
When he goes through the list of all the different
iterations of names they've had, yeah, yeah, Parson rec.
Speaker 3 (46:02):
In case anybody's not sure what we're talking about.
Speaker 4 (46:04):
Yeah, okay, all right. Do we have a moral of
the week this week?
Speaker 3 (46:09):
Martha? I think it's a pretty clear moral on this page. Actually,
So Peeves.
Speaker 2 (46:15):
Has been watching a fight happen and then he ends
up with his tongue glued to the roof of his mouth.
So that to me is just, you know, stay out
of other people's business if you don't want your if
you don't want to get hurt yourself.
Speaker 4 (46:31):
Yeah, I think you're right.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
Like, if we look at what the lesson here is
creature and Dobby don't quite get their lessons taught to
them yet, but Dobby or but Peeves does, so he's
the one leaving with a lesson exactly, And that's a
lesson that needs to be taught to teenagers a lot too,
is a lot of it's very tempting for teenagers for
some reason to.
Speaker 3 (46:53):
Watch fights and film fights.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
And yeah, I think that the lesson here is, you know,
just let people sort out their own problems. Obviously, violence
is not the answer. That's the other moral that we
could find here.
Speaker 3 (47:09):
But I think that the real one at fault here
on the page, on this page specifically, is Peeves for
taking pleasure and watching this.
Speaker 9 (47:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
Yes, and he ended up getting into trouble and getting
consequences from having been involved in that, and he wouldn't
have been otherwise.
Speaker 2 (47:29):
Exactly, he would have been totally fined. Yeah, but instead
he got a prince hex. He was the he was
on the tail end of a prince hex and you
don't ever want to me Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was
another Prince hext, wasn't it.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (47:44):
I'm surprised he didn't say like Harry said proudly, or
like or Harry said casually.
Speaker 3 (47:49):
Actually that would be more he how.
Speaker 4 (47:51):
He would say it, Yeah, totally.
Speaker 1 (47:55):
So all right, well, I think that pretty much wraps
up this week. Do we have anything else we need
to say before we get to our dice roll?
Speaker 3 (48:04):
I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (48:05):
I think that all of this is a pretty, like
I said, straightforward page.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
But we did learn a lot as far as well.
Speaker 1 (48:13):
And oh, I'm sorry, we need to do our page
ranking and we didn't really do that last week either day.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
Oh yeah, no, we didn't do it last week, and
I think that was because it was very clearly not
going to beat the King of the Hill.
Speaker 3 (48:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Actually, I mean I don't know, but current King of
the Hill, current rating champ is the page with the
imperious person Moody's class.
Speaker 4 (48:33):
Right, personally, I would put this higher.
Speaker 2 (48:36):
I think so too. Yeah, I think we should put
this one at number one.
Speaker 4 (48:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
It's super funny and classic and all the things.
Speaker 4 (48:46):
We look for in a page.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
Yeah, exactly, So I think we should just go with that,
all right.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
So this is our reigning champion, the Elf Tails page
four twenty.
Speaker 3 (48:57):
It's perfect, yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:59):
And it just yeah, it's so fun, like so much
about this page just is what we love.
Speaker 1 (49:04):
Yeah, exactly. So all right, very fun. So anything else
you wanted to say? Nope, okay, Well then I guess
we're moving on to our dice roll.
Speaker 3 (49:17):
All right, so I'm putting in the dice roll sound
and Book three page four thirty one? Is that? Does
this book go to four thirty one? Mmm?
Speaker 4 (49:29):
I don't know, Oh it does?
Speaker 3 (49:30):
Okay, it's like, okay, the last pages of the book.
Speaker 4 (49:33):
Okay, perfect books. You know we haven't we.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
Still haven't done book two or Book seven, right right?
Speaker 4 (49:40):
Or Book one?
Speaker 2 (49:41):
Oh yeah, true, So we've only done Prisoner of Azkabe
and Goblet of Fire, Order the Phoenix, and Halflood prints.
Speaker 3 (49:47):
So weird, and this is our third order the Phoenix page.
Speaker 1 (49:52):
Yes, sorry what what page did you say? It is
four thirty one?
Speaker 3 (49:55):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (49:56):
Okay, all right, so book book three, page four thirty one,
and that will be lots of fun. It's gonna I
think we're gonna be on the platform at King's Cross
or what. Well, let's just the book goes until page
four thirty five, so either that either platform or on
the train still maybe.
Speaker 1 (50:17):
Yeah, or maybe like at the final end of your
feast or something like that.
Speaker 2 (50:21):
But that would be kind of a lot to fit
into four pages, but maybe true.
Speaker 4 (50:25):
Yeah, somewhere in there though. End of the year we're
wrapping up.
Speaker 1 (50:29):
However, I think next week we are potentially not going
to be doing this like one page at a time.
We're gonna probably either be doing a take five or
a character study. So just just to be aware, this
next one page at a.
Speaker 4 (50:44):
Time will be coming up probably in like two weeks.
Speaker 3 (50:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:48):
Sorry, side note before we jump into the last bit
of this podcast. I just was on I was on
Barry grad Praise Wikipedia, and I have to say the
Wikipedia page might have the real burn of the week.
So it says during the COVID nineteen pandemic, Grand Prey
branched out from paintings and began making sock monkeys as
a way to cope with stress.
Speaker 3 (51:07):
And then it says some of these monkeys have been sold.
Speaker 9 (51:14):
Some of them have not exactly, So thank you for that,
very Grand Prey for the monkeys, sock monkey Queen.
Speaker 3 (51:27):
Some of these monkeys have been sold.
Speaker 4 (51:32):
What a random thing.
Speaker 3 (51:34):
Yeah, Also, like that was her way.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
I mean, I know we all did stuff during COVID
that was like, as a way to cope with the
stress of the pandemic.
Speaker 3 (51:43):
She start began making soft.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
Gosh, I wish I had a productive hobby like that
during COVID s.
Speaker 4 (51:49):
I could be rich if I had sold a few
of those.
Speaker 3 (51:51):
Some of them have been sold.
Speaker 2 (51:55):
With partial pro partial proceeds going towards COVID relief journeys.
God forbid all the proceeds. She wasn't rich enough from
illustrating Harry Potter. She needed to keep some of those proceeds, right, Oh, celebrities.
Speaker 3 (52:14):
I'm just gonna google Mary Grand Praise sock Monkeys really quick,
because well.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
It looks like it links to an Instagram post about them.
Speaker 3 (52:20):
Oh yeah, that's what I was just looking.
Speaker 2 (52:22):
Yeah, she has a whole account, Mary Grand Prey Underscore Monkeys,
three hundred.
Speaker 3 (52:29):
And thirty one followers.
Speaker 2 (52:31):
How have we Oh, she kind of cooked with that.
She has basically as many followers as the.
Speaker 4 (52:35):
Real weird sisters.
Speaker 3 (52:37):
They are interesting looking sock monkeys. They're not just the class.
Speaker 2 (52:41):
We have more followers than Mary Grand Praise sock Monkeys.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
Her most recent post is from October twenty twenty three.
Oh my gosh, I like this one. Sylvia Celestin poet
hanging out.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
I mean, I know we've got some sock monkey people
out there, but that seems so random.
Speaker 2 (53:06):
Yeah, and these are I mean, well, I will say
these are very creative looking at sock monkeys, but yeah.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
They've got more like they kind of look like baboons
or something.
Speaker 3 (53:18):
Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. They look like raffiki. Yeah,
exactly interesting on her her own Instagram because on Mary
grad Prey Underscore Monkeys, her bio says I am painter
Mary grand Prey and her her actual account is linked
and very interesting. She does a lot of abstract mixed
medium paintings, a little bit more her maybe what she
(53:43):
was meant to do.
Speaker 4 (53:44):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.
Speaker 1 (53:46):
It looks more like abstract so we don't have to
get the like proportions of people acting, right, Okay, I
just want to read out one post of when she
sold her first monkey sold the highest bidder.
Speaker 2 (54:01):
So happy to send jewels to a new loving home.
Thank you Jimmy for helping with this effort to benefit
Feeding America. Goodbye sweet Jewels, Oh.
Speaker 4 (54:12):
My next monkey a month.
Speaker 2 (54:13):
Auction will be held on the first Monday in March
three one, twenty twenty one, two pm Eastern time, and
I have no idea who that monkey will be.
Speaker 4 (54:27):
Okay, well it was.
Speaker 3 (54:30):
Looks like it was neo.
Speaker 2 (54:32):
Well okay, And just to be clear, she did give
a large portion of the profit to charity because one
of her yeah, neo, she sold for five hundred and
twenty dollars and four hundred and seventy five went to
Feeding America.
Speaker 3 (54:44):
Okay, So she just kept.
Speaker 2 (54:49):
Probably for her costs of the materials for her troubles.
Speaker 1 (54:54):
Yeah, okay, Well, anyway.
Speaker 3 (54:59):
She had.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
She did some better things during the pandemic than the author.
Speaker 3 (55:04):
Yeah, let's put it that way.
Speaker 2 (55:05):
A much better way to spend your pandemic than the author. Yeah,
so we really can't complain too much about her, we can.
We can tease her in loving spirit and joy.
Speaker 3 (55:17):
Some of these monkeys have sold, well, it sounds like
she wanted to keep most of them because they're very
close to her.
Speaker 2 (55:23):
Yeah, she loves them. Goodbye sweet jewels. Yeah, she seemed
a little bit sad to be parting with any of them.
Speaker 4 (55:29):
Yeah, all right, well, thank you for that.
Speaker 3 (55:33):
Maybe the shout out to her three hundred and thirty
one followers.
Speaker 1 (55:37):
I just wish the author could have made sock monkeys
during the pandemic instead of that is getting on to Twitter.
Speaker 3 (55:42):
Yeah, exactly, that's the real lesson of the week. My favorite,
my favorite pick I just was looking at her highlights
on her Instagram and uh, monkey Mania is one of
them and the last one.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
There's only four slides in this. She says, say hello
to lover, it's this picture of a monkey's face.
Speaker 1 (56:05):
Okay, I'll send it to you perfect, all right, Well
that this was a very fun page to read. Like
I said, next week, we're going to be back with
either a Take five or a character study, so we'll
be switching gears a little bit, getting.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
Please stand up, Please stand up, Please stand up.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Hi, and welcome to the Real Weird Sisters.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I'm Alice and I'm Martha.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
And today we're here to talk about the four hundred
and twentieth page of Harry Potter and the Half Blood
Prince Martha. It's about to be four to twenty up
in here.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yeah, yep, book six four. And this is a very
fitting page for silliness.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
This is probably like I feel like, if this had
been the very first page we had done, it would
have seemed like we rigged it, because it's honestly perfect
for this.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Yes it is.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
It's a page that I've done impressions of before. Let's
just put it that way. So I think, without further ado,
we should just jump right in.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yes, So, as a little hint, this page is set
in the chapter of Elf.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Tails yes, yes, elf tails are seen in this stage.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
There are several elf tails right here on this page.
So all right, so shall we proceed with Well, do
we need to do our housekeeping from last week?
Speaker 4 (01:27):
First? Let everyone know I.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Guess the people have probably been on the edges of
their seats, Yeah, waiting for the bad name winner.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I mean I would say we'll come back later to
the housekeeping, but I don't think that's how it works
on here. So okay, So we did get our results
of our poll, and we had a clear winner this week.
It wasn't quite as close as some of the other
weeks have been. I will say we had a clear
loser as well. Clear loser was Twins Parents, So sorry
(01:56):
to the that was your uh, that was my one contribution.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Yeah, exactly a project.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Usually every week I come up with one and you
come up with three, and so far I think most
of mine have won.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
But this week, this is the.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
First time that your suggestion.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Flopped total flop.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
I will have to I do have to say, like
the apostrophe in there after the Twins like after Twins
kind of does like make it clunky.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
And I think not having the I do think the
Twins Parents might be a better band name, but yeah,
on the page it was the potill Twins Parents that
we could read a word right.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Okay, so twins Parents, thank you to the four of
you who voted for that.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
You stand with me. I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I as a little bit surprised how few votes it got,
but I think it's maybe not so much on Twins
Parents as it is on the other ones just being
so good.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
They were so good.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Okay, are in third place? We had two best friends
with eighteen percent, in second place with twenty five percent,
we had something with the Order, And in.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
First place with fifty one percent.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Drum roll please, we had staff Table.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
So I was honestly surprised that that was the clear winner.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, it was kind of a bad week for band names,
and I think it that way.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
To be fair to you, Alice, I do think that
you also came up with staff Table, or at least
you pretended like you'd also been speaking of table, because
I said staff tableed, I think you said, like, oh yeah,
thinking of that too. Yeah, well I had I had
kind of been thinking it, but I didn't think it
was very good, so I can't take credit.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Yeah, that was all on you.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Okay, Well, I think if we were both thinking and
it does count a little bit for both of us.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Okay, So that that's pretty much the end of our housekeeping.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Hopefully this week we have a few.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I think there are a couple better band names.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Spoiler alert.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I've got a couple that I think are pretty funny already. Okay, good, okay,
Well Alice has a couple, it must be a good week.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, exactly, I've got two, to be exact, and we'll
see some sometimes, like as we talk about the page,
more ideas come to me, so we'll.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
See how it usually is for me too.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Okay, So shall we go ahead and read this page?
Like I said, it's in Elf Tales, chapter nineteen, and.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Other than that, I don't think it needs any introduction.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I don't think so, all right, so I have to
jump in with dialogue right away. And I do like
when these one page at the times do start with
the first like start at a paragraph like a nuclear craft,
which is how this one is.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
So all right.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
I was watching that potty, he told Harry, indignantly, pointing
at the fight below, before letting out a loud cackle.
Look at the echo creatures squabbling boichie boichee, punchee punchee.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Creature will not insult Harry Potter in front of Dobby. Doo,
he won, don't.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Dobby will shot creature's mouth for him, cried Dobby in
a high pitched voice. Hicky scratching, cried Peeves, happily now
pelting bits of talk at the elves to enrage them further.
Twaky poky creature will say what he likes about his master.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Oh yes, and what a master he is? A filthy
friend of what bloods are? What creature's mistress say?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Exactly what creature's mistress would have said?
Speaker 6 (05:20):
They did not find out, for at that moment, Dobby
sank his nobby little fisty creature into creature's mouth and
knocked out half his teeth. Harry and Ron both leaped
out of their beds and wrenched the two elves apart,
though they continued to try to kick and punch each other,
egged on by Peeves, who swooped around the lamp squealing.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Stick your fingers up his nosey drawers, cork and policy
is he's Harry aimed his wand at Peeves and said
langlock pee Peeves clutched at his throat, gulped, then swooped
from the room, making up scene gestures, but unable to speak,
owing to the fact that his tongue had just glued
(06:02):
itself to the roof of his mouth. Nice one, said Ron,
appreciatively lifting Dobby into the air so that his flailing
limbs no longer made contact with Creature.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
That was another Prince Hex, wasn't it, Yeah.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Said Harry, twisting Creature's wizzened arm into a half Nelson.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Right, I'm forbidding you to fight each other. Well, and
that's the end of the page.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I have to say it's a little hard to do
Ron and Harry impressions after doing those other three. Well,
I think you managed just fine. But yeah, yeah, put
you to the test. Put you to the test, and
you had to do five different voices on this page.
And they were five very unique voices.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
I did, I mean they were not the same impression?
Speaker 2 (06:48):
No, I'm serious, five unique voices.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
I knew this would be a bit tough, because.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Sometimes your Peeves and your Dobby can kind of bleed
into one another.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
But I think you pulled that one off.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Thank you. Yeah, I'm glad to hear it.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
This almost, like I said, this almost feels like a
like a fan fiction somebody would write to have us
read out.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, totally. The only thing that'd make it better is
if Myrtle was.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
There or hepsibah. Well, yeah, that would definitely be fan fiction.
What what context would have Hepsiba the same? Well, that's
why I'm saying fan fiction.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Yeah, this is I mean, this is realistic.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
I mean, obviously it happens for real, but it's uh,
you know, they are all living at Hogwarts, so it
makes sense that they would all be in the same Yeah,
we've got we've got yeah, the first meeting of Peeves, Dobby,
and Creature in one scene together here, so.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
You know they might have hung out before this, right.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
That we've seen they have a lot in common.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
So exactly. First of all, it's not clear we have
to put the context.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
This is something we probably I mean we've sort of
started doing it with the page number or sorry, with
the chapter number and chapter title and stuff. But we
do have to kind of contect sctualize these pages sometimes.
And just to be clear, the setting of this page
is not mentioned, but it is the hospital wing. Yeah,
they're in the hospital wing. Harry and Ron both do
you remember why they're in the hospital wing? And now
(08:13):
I'm trying to Ron is there because it's after his
uh thing, right, right, and then Harry there after a
quidditch accident, right, So that's why they're both there. That's
why for a second, for a second, I was like, wait,
why are they both there? It's like Flagon hit the
blooder at Harry, right, and then Harry wakes up in
the hospital wing and Ron's laughing, laughing at him, and
(08:34):
then he's guffawing about Lunar's amazing commentary loses lookie.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
So anyway, then this is in the middle of the
night too. That's another important thing to note that they
show up there in the middle of the night.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
And then I mean it's it's kind of Harry has
summoned them there, right.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yes, Harry asked for cree sure now this is uh
he he had just not to look at the previous
page too much, but I did just double check.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
He he called creature.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
This is he kind of wishing them, Yeah, exactly, He's
about to ask Creature to do this.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
He didn't expect Dobby to come along.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
But the kind of we can surmise that what happened
was Creature got the summons from Harry. He was in
the kitchen and Dobby heard him and he said something
about like my wretched, horrible master, and Dobby was like, Creature,
not insult Harry Potch exactly, and then that's why Dobby's there.
(09:39):
And of course Peeves was just being entertained by this.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Yeah, he really enjoys watching house elves fight.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Yeah, it's like you watching housewives exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Okay, So, yeah, lots going on on this page and
this one I do feel like put me to the
test as far as trying to remember the context more
than some of the other pages that we've had.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, because just Elf Tails itself is not necessarily the
most clear chapter time. I mean, obviously we know that
that's why he hires the tails and stuff, but yeah, right,
I was a little bit confused at first. I was like,
is this after he's already put them to the give them,
given them this task just stick to Malfoy like a
(10:20):
couple of water plasters, or is this Oh I wish
we would this is this is before? Yeah, that's gonna
be the end of the chapter. It's because that's a
great Singer at the end of the chapter stick to
like a couple of water plasters.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
But yeah, that's beautiful, simply too for literary device watch point.
But yeah, that that's where we're at right now.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Yeah, so, speaking of literary devices, we didn't really have
many literary devices, except for maybe Peeves painting quite the
pictures for us of things that he wants Dobby and
Creature to do to one another. Stick your fingers up
his nose. He draws his cork, which, by the way,
what does that mean?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I think, like you draw the cork, Like, is that
like their nose, Like, don't you say, gotcha cork or something?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
If you grab somebody's nose.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Maybe, but draw his cork and pull his ears ease,
But he just said nosey a minute ago, so I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Oh yeah, well maybe draw his cork. Is that like
something with the mouth. Yeah, I don't. Let's look that
up because that might be our lesson of the week. Uhraw,
Well here I'm seeing bloody nose.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
No, that's not what I saw, So we'll see it.
Says to uncork ones pent up emotions, So.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Like, that's not what Peeves is referring to.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Maybe but well, this is what AI is telling me.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Drawing the cork is an old, somewhat antiquated phrase meaning
to give someone a physical beating, specifically a bloody nose.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Oh okay, okay, yeah, I suppose that would make sense.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
I was thinking it would read wine drawing for like
red wine like starts pouring from you. Yeah, but that
sees some beautiful imagery coming to us from Peeves. Yeah, exactly,
So that's an old idiom that Peeves has brought to us.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Yeah, thank you very device, Thank you Peeves. And yeah,
other than that, I don't think there was a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
I mean, he also Peeves does have a tendency to
use on him on a.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Pia and uhtchy tweaky poky, to use some of his
own bitey bitey punchy punchy or whatever.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Like I obviously this is like the quintessential Peeves scene.
I feel like to do what Peeves impression for. But
does he always do so many I know he calls
Potter or Harry Potter potty, but like, is he always
adds so many i ees and whys to the end
of words.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I guess that's kind of his thing.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I think it kind of has been his thing forever,
but I do feel like maybe by this point in
the series it's got exaggerated.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
It's even a bated.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah, I will say this is going to be kind
of a hard page to find that Ojo she didn't.
But just to go a little bit of housekeeping, we
already did our housekeeper cuing segment, but Dave was kind
of reminding us we don't necessarily have to address every
every segment if they're not going to naturally come up.
But there are going to be sub segments that we
(13:23):
have to do every week, even if they're not naturally
there on the page, such an MVB MVB obviously and
Ojo she didn't. I do think we have to keep
in every week, so we just have the reason for
some of these.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I agree, I think some of them.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I agree that we can cut if not if they
don't really fit. But I do think some of them
we need to get creative with.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
So exactly, so I was thinking for the Ojo she didn't,
just to jump to that. Yeah, it's kind of back
to the one inch teeth thing, but the Dobby knocking
out half of Creature's teeth excessive, Like is that features
now half his teeth are gone?
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Well I kind of wondered about that too, and I
was kind of thinking about it, and I was like, well,
I guess he is really old, so his teeth are maybe,
you know, not the strongest, but half his teeth does
seem like an exaggeration.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Well, and also like I guess maybe since it's a
magical world, like maybe it's easier to like put them
back in or something. But it does, like it just
seems like a lot that are just gone now too.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah, And I felt like that was possibly a bit
of an exaggeration, but yeah, that might be you.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Know, a little bit too much.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
And it's like, really, Dobby, like you were really angry here,
like Dobby, Like, I just feel like Dobby needs to
choose peace.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Dobby could probably benefit from going to some anger management
courses because he really flies off the handle when he
hears anything said slightly negative about it.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
He needs to like learn to not listen to the haters.
I mean, to be.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Fair, Dobby has had very probably very.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Poor models of this in his life and having grown
up in the Malfoy manner. But at the same time,
I do think he could learn and grow. I mean,
we admire how loyal he is to Harry, but it's
also like, okay, Dobby, take it easy.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Like it's like what I tell my middle schoolers, you know,
like just learn to like sometimes the most powerful thing
you could do is just step away, you know, like
just ignore.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Like honestly, you might feel weak doing it, but actually
it's the most mature thing to do at times.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
The other ojo she didn't I also kind of thought
could be a burn of the week was when.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Harry twisted creatures wizened arm.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
I was like, was that necessary.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Half Nelson too? What is a half Nelson?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I've known I've heard that phrase before, but I looked
it up and it turns out it's like a wrestling pose.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
That's what I thought.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Yeah, yeah, where you kind of have their arm twisted
behind them so they can't they're kind of incapacitated.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Well, so, speaking of literary device, watch, what year did
this book come out?
Speaker 1 (16:19):
I think this one came out in two thousand and.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Five and five?
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Yes, okay, so maybe the the movie Half Nelson starring
Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Could that be an allusion to this that came out
two thousand and six.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Oh okay, well it's so close in time period, I
feel like it has to be.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
So, the story of Half Nelson, if you're not familiar,
I'm just looking at Wikipedia, concerns an inner city middle
school teacher who forms a friendship with a student after
she discovers that he has a drug habit. So I'm
not sure who is what what this is referring to,
or what the connection is here, but I'm thinking maybe
(17:05):
like Peeves could be this inner city middle school teacher
with a drug habit, and these little house selves could
be the students. That kind of Yeah, that does the
shouldn't really be pretty plausible. Yeah, so I don't know
that movie I think might be an illusion. Yeah, I
don't really know why that movie is called Half Nelson.
Speaker 4 (17:28):
Yeah, is there any wrestling in the movie?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
No?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
From what from the plot summary here?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, when I looked it up originally, like I found
Half Nelson as the first like the first thing that
came up was the movie, and I was like, I
don't understand this is the teacher's name, mister.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
Nelson or something.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
That's what I was That's what I was thinking too.
And there's nobody with the last name Nelson in the
movie Weird.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
I wonder what that means.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Then, Yeah, maybe like the concept of a because a
half nelson is when a wrestler places an arm under
one of the opponent's arms from behind and exerts pressure
with the palm on the back of the opponent's neck.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
So maybe it's like he feels the pressure being a teacher. Mmmm.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Yeah, it's possible.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
And uh, half nelson sounds like it might be an
illegal move now.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Oh okay, well maybe that's why I didn't come up
straight away.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yeah, so Harry kind of breaking the law here with
that twisting creature's wizzened arb into a half nelson.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
I mean, I didn't know if that was the burn
of the week. Do you see another? More like, did
you have another burn of the week?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
I was like kind of struggling with the burn of
the week.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
I mean, Ron saying nice one about gluing the the
tongue to the roof of Peeves's mouth.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
I mean it's a little bit of a burn.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I guess Harry kind of burned Peeves when he said langlock, langlock.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
He aimed his wand at Peeves. I know it's a
prince hext, but it's a very loop and move.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
It totally is.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I feel like any time, maybe that's the humble brag
of the week, because I feel like anytime you kind
of have.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
A moment where you're being loop in, you're.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Kind of well.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I think I think that the the humble brag of
the week is Yeah, said Harry about that was another
prince hex was it it?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Yeah, he's not very like yeah, he's he's pretty like
casual about it, right, Ran nice one and Harry, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, Wady was is the spell that Lupin uses on?
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Yeah, this is pretty much like a full circle moment
as far as Harry channeling loop In when.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Lupin uh got peeves with Waddy was right, this is
a useful little spell.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Please watch closely, wa was Yeah, so I did.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
I did think other birds of the week could just
be like the filthy friend of mud bloods.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
What what creatures mistress say?
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Yeah, it's not very nice to include that slur in there, though,
or Dobby's nobbly little fist. I do think it's kind
of funny when I think the funny part about that
line is when he says, oh, yes, and what a
master he is.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Oh yeah, that is a good one. Yeah. Actually that
might be the best burden of what a master he is.
What a master he is? I also do like Doppy
will shut Creature's mouth for him.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
That's more like the threat of the week.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Yeah, the threat of the week comes from Dobby. Yeah,
I think I actually think, yeah that what a master
he is is the best. He's so sarcastic. Creature is
very shady.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
H he is the king of shade.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
And it's pretty funny when Creature just starts like monologue
of soliloquy ing even though, like you know, there's people there,
he's doing a soliloquy.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Right, nobody's Yeah, he doesn't care who's listening.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Correct. The humble bragg of the week, I think we
do have to give to the Yeah it was another
prince sex.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah yeah, because it's like, no big deal.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Yeah it was another prince sex.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Okay, Harry typical, Yeah, very typical.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
So adverb of the week were I'm happy to report
that we are back to an adverb heavy page.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Yes we are.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
This is an adverb heavy page like this is this
is vintage author As far as number of adverbs on
this page.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Yeah, So we started with.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Peeves telling Harry something indignantly.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Yeah, then we have Peeves crying happily, and then we
have uh, let's see what was the next one.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Ron said, appreciatively.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Yeah, those are the three main ones on the page.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Of course, we also have a preposent or sorry adverbial
claw of Dobby in a high pitched voice. And then
we have some of the words that we're talking about,
like Peeves squealing later as well.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
But I think I think indignantly, yeah, indignantly, and that's
also one that the author does really like to use
quite fit.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I remember indignant and incredulous were two words that I
like learned that I credit Harry Potter for why I
know those words so well. Yeah, so, and I do
feel like this page indignantly also sort of like thematically
sums up the page. Each of the three little creatures here, Creature, Dobby,
(22:41):
and Peeves each is quite indignant about different things. Yeah,
it's funny that Peeves is the one who says it,
who has the indignant were adverb, because he's probably the
least indignant on the.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I mean, I guess it's sort of like almost sarcastically indignant.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
How I was watching that, Potty, It's like, really, do
you have to be that outraged?
Speaker 2 (23:04):
But also like it was probably not that hard for
him to just operate with them, you know, yeah exactly,
Like Okay, actually a little like behind the scenes here,
like how long do you think it took? Like did
Peeves figure out where they were immediately?
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Well?
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I know that's I don't quite know how that all works,
and I mean, yeah, it seems always like the apparition
part of the elf being summoned happens immediately, but there
has to have.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Been well yeah, I mean I know that, like they're
required to come, but like clearly Creature had a reaction
to Harry summoning him, so he probably took a little
bit of time. And then I mean, Peeve's probably he
seems like he's pretty aware of where everybody is at
all times.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, he has kind of like an internal Marauders map
that he.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Felt exactly, So he probably was like, oh, like Potter
or Potty has summoned Creature and I no Potters in
the Yeah, that's true, So it probably didn't take him
all that long. But it's kind of a it's like
Dobby came along because he was like attached to Creature
because they were fighting, right right, Yeah, it's kind of
(24:14):
interesting to think about the how how Creature got or sorry,
how Peeves got there too. Right, Okay, do you feel
like there's a missed opportunity on this page at all?
I think that this page kind of hits all the boxes,
like we have yeah, Creature, Peeves, and Dobby all in
their element.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Like you said, we kind of did have a missed
opportunity of summoning in Myrtle as well.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Yeah, right, I don't know why Myrtle would have been there,
but it could have been great. That could have been amazing,
And yeah, it's definitely possible that she could have been there.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
I think that on the previous page we have Ron's
reaction a little bit more of like how he's like
completely confused and baffled of why they're there. But I
kind of feel like there could have been a little
bit more of like a ran like reaction.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Yeah, and we do like to have Ron, I feel like,
is usually the one who's incredulous to use your earlier Yeah.
But yeah, so that's true, But I feel like the
missed opportunity here's what could have happened the house, Elves
would have been cleaning Myrtle's bathroom and started fighting. That's
right when he and Peeves showed up to watch that,
(25:27):
and then.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
That's when clean Myrtle's bathroom. That's I mean, probably probably do.
But like I'm just.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Saying, that's that's how we could have gotten Myrtle to
be involved in this scene too, because then if it
would have been the same thing kind of as Peeve, well,
Peeves would have continued to want to watch the fight,
and then Myrtle would have wanted to have an opportunity
to come visit with Harry.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
Yeah, that's true. I could see it a little bit more.
I have to think about it a little bit more.
But I I feel like kind.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Of some rules were broken when Myrtle first left her bathroom, Like, yeah,
I know she like, I feel like she's supposed to
never leave her bathroom, and I know she left it
in the Goblet of Fire the Prefects bathroom scene, but
I feel like that kind of broke what I thought
was the.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
Yeah, I'm not quite sure what the rules with Myrtle
are because.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
It's not I like actual rules.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
It's just like I feel like Myrtle's like whole thing
is that, like she feels bound to stay there.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Yeah, although she loves Harry. So I'm just saying I
feel like that was.
Speaker 4 (26:28):
A missed opportunity.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah. I wonder if the editors asked the author to
add that man and she insisted it. Yeah, probably you
know what would make this page even better?
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Okay, I this move this page is not in the movie.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Sadly Peeves is not in the movie.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
Yeah, that is a missed opportunity in another itself.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah, that's a good point. That's the missed opportunity this week.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
But Hermione's beaded bag? Are we going to take this
page with us? I mean it's not in the movie,
but do you think we missed out on?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Like do you think it should have been? Well?
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I yes, I mean I definitely think that this page
is really essential for Eron Potter because I mean just
like it's very fun and a funny. I don't know,
I just enjoy it a lot. Obviously, I like doing
the impression of it. But I think it's some of
what makes the series great is moments like this where
(27:30):
it's just silliness.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Yeah, I think, like you said, it's not like necessarily
like essential to the plot, but it is. It is
like a really fun scene, and it's a good moment
of some levity in this book, because a.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
Lot of this book is pretty serious.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah, exactly, even though serious has passed on spoiler alert.
So I think that we, yeah, we are taking this
page with us because it's very fun, and like, I
don't taking the page with us doesn't mean it has
to be in the movie.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
I don't know, I know, saying like if to me,
it doesn't necessarily mean is it in the movie, but
it just means like, do we find it really like
important and necessary?
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Well, and I think that the Sapwood Princes movie is
just lacking in so many.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Oh yeah, don't even get me started on that.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, so I think that, I mean, even the whole
like tailing Malfoy concept is not really in the movie.
So I think that, honestly, it could have been if
we had had the concept of creature and well, I
don't know, maybe it would have been.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Too much to try to explain that to audiences. But yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
I guess it just depends.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
But yes, I think as far as the series the
canon goes, I'm taking this page with me.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
Okay, be too.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
All right, well we will be back in just a moment.
We're gonna have an ad break and then we'll return
to finish up the rest of our segments.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Okay, so I think it's.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Time what we hit on our w W G p D.
What would grand Prey do?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
She it would have a heyday with this or a
field day.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
With well, and just to be clear, she does this
is sort of almost on this page we have the
two house Elves is the chapter art for Elk Tales.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
But it's a very weird.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I mean, maybe that's supposed to be them like watching Malfoy.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
I kind of thought it was them like getting their
orders from Harry or something.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
But odd, I kind of I I kind of think
it's supposed to be almost like what they're going to
be doing is they're going to be sneaking around watching.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I don't think that they're like bowing.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Down to Harry there, Yeah, I don't. I guess I
don't know what's happening.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I'm surprised we have this creature creatures buff creatures like
Roy died out. Yeah, he is, his whole back is
super musty. Yeah, and the Bobby is like looks like
a baby in comparison, and they are.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
The shadows behind them are odd because I don't know
what are we trying to convey, some sort of like
ominous tone.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
I don't know why you're not buying what I'm saying about.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
I think that they're not not buying that, but well,
it just to me it seems pretty clearly that they
are hiding. I agree, there is an ominous tone that's
a little weird, but it looks to me like they
are hiding, which would be like they're watching Malfoy.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Possibly.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
The silly thing about that is that doesn't happen, that
doesn't happen in this chapter. I know that that is weird,
but I do think that that's I mean, the title
Elf Tales is like they are They're this is what
they're going to be looking like. So Okay, what all
I'm saying is, I'm surprised that Mary grand.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Prey didn't take this page that we just read and
make that the chapter art, because I feel like that
would be much better than what she chose.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
It would be much better, but it would be a
lot harder. So yeah, probably.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
Why, Yeah, I just think it would be fun to
see the two house Elves wrestling, or the scene with
Harry and Ron each holding the house elves.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
Is the that Ron lifting Dobby into the air so
that his flailing limbs no longer made contact with creature.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
That is a pretty good image.
Speaker 8 (31:21):
And Harry twisting Creature's arm into a half nelson, right,
so I would I was thinking that too. Is the
image of the two boys holding the house elves.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
Just I think Mary grand Prey tried to take the
easy way out.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
It's all that. I don't disagree. I am just laughing
to it.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
You was saying, I'm not it's not that I'm not
buying it, and then I say something and you're like,
maybe I'm not.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
I'm not arguing with you.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
I'm just saying I don't understand Mary grand Prai's choice.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Well, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
I think the choice, like we figured out here, is
it was a little bit easier to just.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Draw them just crouching down. Yeah, I'm just saying, but
is dead for the series, and how much money she
probably made off of this, I think a little bit
more effort would have killed her.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I will say she did a good job on the
elves faces.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
I like them.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yeah, I don't necessarily like them, but they look like
how I picture the both of them. I agree, I
think like and maybe besides the creature being roided out,
I think that well, and their hands and feet are
really big.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Yeah, that's a lot. I think.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Besides that part, the proportions are better than some of hers,
right right.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
I think if she had had to put the boys
into it, to have Ron and Harry would have been tough.
That would have been a struggle.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
I think maybe Mary Grant, as much as we've praised
her in the past.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
And then as much as we've grand praised her.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Yeah, I think that she may have been little in
over her depth with this series.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Oh, I don't know, do we know much about her
career outside of this? Like what because like, I don't know,
maybe I don't really know how I don't know that
much about her. I yeah, maybe I'm just my ignorance
is showing here.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
But yeah, okay, well anyway, let's let's just go ahead
and let's just we've we've decided the Mary grand Prex
illustration of the week should have been, Uh, Harry and
Ron each pulling the house elves apart.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
From each other.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
That would have been good, That would have been really good.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Okay, how about uh, how about our MVB.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, this is tough. I mean, Peeves is the one
flying around, right, so seems like closest to a bird
that we have.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
And then the other second option would be Dobby when
he was lifted off the ground, he was lifted lailing limbs.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
But yeah, that's kind of like Peeves is the.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
One flying You're right, right, Yeah, so I think it's
it's got to be Peeves.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Right back to the Grand Prix segment for a moment,
I was gonna say, we don't Grand Prix has illustrated
Peeves before that.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
Yes, when he looks like a genie.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Or something exactly, and I always think it's at friar.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Yeah, that's not at all how I think pe should look.
So I'm not I'm not to be rude, but I'm
not sorry.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
That we don't have Peeves as part of this chapter art.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
That's what I was gonna say, too, is I think
that where there's a reason that neither of us included
Peeves in our suggestion for the ww GPD exactly.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Okay, so we have our MVB. Who do you think
is the real weirdo of this page?
Speaker 3 (34:54):
That's tough because there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
Of real weirdos. Y, Yes, I mean probably Eves for
being so into this fight, I guess, yeah, like why
would he be? I mean, I guess it's entertaining for him?
Or why you mean why would he be the real weirdo?
Or do you mean why would he know?
Speaker 4 (35:12):
Why would he be so into it?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
I'm agreeing with you, Yeah, I mean I think he
just likes watching people fight.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Yeah, and he's bored.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Yeah, right, he doesn't have much to do so right,
and I mean Pete's just naturally as part of who
he is. Yeah, is the real weirdo in general?
Speaker 5 (35:35):
Right?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Yeah, I think that's probably the right choice here. But
I mean Dobby and Creature are both pretty weird too.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Or not true? He just needs to work on his
reactions to things.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, Like you said, I think some training in uh
like the art of zen.
Speaker 3 (35:56):
Zen and the art motorcycle making would be great for him.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
Exactly, or just like an anger management course or practicing
meditation or something like that.
Speaker 4 (36:06):
He needs something to.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Slow himself down and take himself out of these intense
physical reactions to other people.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Poor Dobby, such a sweetheart.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Yeah, we're kind of coming to the to the clothes
where we open at the clothes. We're kind of coming
to the clothes here. As far as our segments go,
I don't feel like there's really a meme of the
week unless you do well the thing with meme of
the week, and sometimes we kind of discover them as
we're going. But yeah, I think that maybe something with
(36:43):
the like, uh, this is fine dog.
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Like uh, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
I don't know the dog and the burning building that's
like this is fine.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I could see that being like
I don't know the people watching this, or.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
Something like Harry or Ron. Yeah, it's tricky. I don't
think we have a name.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
You're right, I mean that was I can see where
you're going with that, but yeah, it's you. You know
what would work actually better the Duck dynasty, like the
two guys yelling.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
At each other. Oh yeah, so it could be like,
you know, we have.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Creature saying my master's a filthy friend of mud Blood's
and Dobby, you will not talk about Harry Potter that way.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
I'll say whatever I want, like.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I appreciate the effort from you. Okay,
or final option that like cat that's being that's like
eating spinach.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Oh yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Well with the angry woman, Yeah that's from house right, Yeah,
that's from Beverly Hills. Yeah, so that could be like
Dobby's like, I'm just literally trying to defend my fred.
Speaker 1 (38:11):
So Dobby would be the ang would be the upset
person shouting.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, and then Creature would just be
like I'll say whatever I want.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
That's yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (38:21):
Yeah. Yeah, okay, well fun meme of the week. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
Okay, all right, I think that means it is time
for the w W t QQO t w b.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Oh yes, okay, So this one's kind of tricky because
it's just such a like goofy page. Yeah I don't oh,
you know, people on kor can come up with questions
for anything, but yeah, I agree, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:49):
I have a question.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
It would be why does Cree why does Peeves insist
on always talking like bitey bitey, punchy, punchy, kicky, scratchy,
tweaky pokey. Yeah, that's a good question, and I feel
like there would be some like the what all person
talking about like the lore of Poltergeist and yeah, but
(39:12):
I was thinking more like a like backstory type of
question of like.
Speaker 3 (39:18):
Like how did Peeves come to be at Hogwarts?
Speaker 4 (39:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:22):
Or what about if it was something like how often
does Peeves hang around the house Elves?
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Yeah, I just like the idea, like it's actually a
good question that I mean, not that I really care
that much, but of why is it that Hogwarts is
Peeves home?
Speaker 4 (39:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:42):
And like you, like you said, you would then get
somebody talking about the lore of Poultergeists, right, being a
know it all about that, So that is very cora
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Yeah, So okay, I yeah, I agree. This page also.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
Doesn't really create that many questions this as far as stuff.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
You would say, But it's like it's just yeah, it's
pretty like straightforward page as far as what's happening there is.
There's nothing to like really dive deeper to analyze, you know. Yeah,
but I do, I mean, I maybe I think Peeves
probably is addressed in the Potomore presence, So I don't
(40:21):
I don't need anybody to answer this necessarily, but I
do wonder what the backstory of how Peeves came to
be at Hogwarts is yeah. I mean, I know I've
read some of that stuff about how like Poltergeister often
in places where kids are and that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
But yeah, yeah, but I think you're right, like it
would be slightly interesting to know specifically Peeves's story.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
Yes, yeah, I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
Though if we don't actually ever find out for real,
or if if it's out there, I don't actually really care.
Speaker 3 (40:59):
That's how I like.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
It probably is out there, and I'm I'm alright not knowing,
but it is something that's like worth asking, I guess right.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
Okay, Well, shall we change course a little bit here
and get to our band.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
Name of the week.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
I think it's time.
Speaker 4 (41:16):
Okay, So I have, like I said, I have a couple.
Do you have any that have stood out to you?
Speaker 3 (41:22):
Well? First one I had was just knocked out.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
Okay, yeah, that sounds like it would be And what
kind of a band are you thinking? Like?
Speaker 3 (41:33):
Punk?
Speaker 4 (41:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (41:35):
I think mine are sort of both like metal, so.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
One minor always punk.
Speaker 4 (41:44):
One I think would be good would be filthy Friend.
Speaker 3 (41:48):
Yeah, yeah, it's kind of gross.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
But and then one that I thought is sort of
funny would be Creature's Mistress.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
Yeah, I like that too.
Speaker 1 (41:59):
That was the first one I saw that popped out
at me. But then Filthy Friend also kind of same thing.
Speaker 2 (42:05):
Yeah, I like phil I like Creature's Mistress better that
that definitely sounds like a metal band. I don't know,
a Filthy Friend. Filthy Friend might actually be like more
like an alternative.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
Yeah, I feel like there's a lot on here, and
now we're getting away from the three three word phrases
and into the two word phrases. But I do think
one that seems kind of funny would be Flailing Limbs.
Speaker 2 (42:28):
Oh yeah, that is pretty good. I thought of obscene gestures. Yeah,
I think flailing Limbs has for a change. Alice is
gonna have three of the four suggestions.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
Okay, flailing Limbs.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
Yeah yeah, another metal band I think, or could be punk.
Speaker 3 (42:43):
I guess that's all it ever is.
Speaker 2 (42:47):
I do think that Two Best Friends was definitely a
like indie.
Speaker 1 (42:53):
Yeah, oh yeah, for sure, like an indie duo.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
But they didn't win so yeah, well.
Speaker 4 (42:58):
The indie duos are not usually successful.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
With like the wider popularity, never win awards. Yeah exactly,
So that makes sense one last option.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
I know we've already done four here, but what about
what about Bidie Bidy Punchy. I know, I did kind
of think like we were we might be like sleeping
on some of Peeves's fun We're crazy. Tweaky Pokey Tweaky
Pokey would probably be my favorite. But I also I
just like the the doubleing of Bidie Bidie Punchy putchy
(43:30):
oh repetition literary device watch.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
Yeah, true, I don't know, I feel like I agree.
Speaker 4 (43:36):
I like the sound of the double, but I feel
like it's.
Speaker 2 (43:39):
Less likely to actually be a band name.
Speaker 3 (43:41):
But we are bitey bity punchy.
Speaker 4 (43:46):
Exactly.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
And then what about Knobbly Little Fist as well?
Speaker 1 (43:51):
You know, we're kind of getting into one narl finger territory.
Speaker 2 (43:54):
I was thinking that was like Jagged Little Pill, how
about Creature's Well, So maybe another option could be I
know we don't necessarily need to add segments, but we
have band name of the week, but what about album
of the week? Because I do feel like Nobbly Little
Fist might be an album title.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
Yeah, I think that would be a band that would
come out by flailing limbs.
Speaker 4 (44:17):
They would put out.
Speaker 3 (44:18):
Nobbly little fist, Yeah, totally.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Creatures Creature's Mistress might put out tweaky pokey Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (44:29):
Yeah, I think you're right.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Like album of the Week also has some potential here. Yeah,
but okay, I think the four options will be knocked
out filthy Friend, Creature's Mistress, and flailing whimbs. I have
to say, I am putting my I'd be putting all
my money onto Creature's Mistress.
Speaker 1 (44:46):
Yeah, I think I would too, especially because it's the
like most like, I feel like.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
People will will respond positively. I mean, I actually like
the idea of I know that it's creature Harry Potter
character spelled the Harry Potter way, but I kind of
like the name Creature's Mistress spelled the normal creature way. Yeah,
we can't change it, obviously, it has to be something
that's on the page. But I kind of think Creature's
Mistress the r E a t U R E selling
(45:12):
that would be a pretty cool bad name.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
Yeah for sure. And well I also like that when
you say Creature's Mistress, you like that.
Speaker 2 (45:20):
I also think, just to kind of another side note
here is that all of these band names just would
be perfect for Andy's band in.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Parks and rec Oh, that's one hundred percent what I
think of every time, Like, yeah, exactly, is.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
There all the type of band like type of I.
Speaker 3 (45:35):
Know that they don't do the same music we're saying
that he does rock. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
When he goes through and he's like, says that they're
way too unique. He says they're way too unique to
say to like one genre of music, and he listens
like a bunch of bands, and then somebody's like, so rock.
Speaker 3 (45:53):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (45:54):
When he goes through the list of all the different
iterations of names they've had, yeah, yeah, Parson rec.
Speaker 3 (46:02):
In case anybody's not sure what we're talking about.
Speaker 4 (46:04):
Yeah, okay, all right. Do we have a moral of
the week this week?
Speaker 3 (46:09):
Martha? I think it's a pretty clear moral on this page. Actually,
So Peeves.
Speaker 2 (46:15):
Has been watching a fight happen and then he ends
up with his tongue glued to the roof of his mouth.
So that to me is just, you know, stay out
of other people's business if you don't want your if
you don't want to get hurt yourself.
Speaker 4 (46:31):
Yeah, I think you're right.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
Like, if we look at what the lesson here is
creature and Dobby don't quite get their lessons taught to
them yet, but Dobby or but Peeves does, so he's
the one leaving with a lesson exactly, And that's a
lesson that needs to be taught to teenagers a lot too,
is a lot of it's very tempting for teenagers for
some reason to.
Speaker 3 (46:53):
Watch fights and film fights.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
And yeah, I think that the lesson here is, you know,
just let people sort out their own problems. Obviously, violence
is not the answer. That's the other moral that we
could find here.
Speaker 3 (47:09):
But I think that the real one at fault here
on the page, on this page specifically, is Peeves for
taking pleasure and watching this.
Speaker 9 (47:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
Yes, and he ended up getting into trouble and getting
consequences from having been involved in that, and he wouldn't
have been otherwise.
Speaker 2 (47:29):
Exactly, he would have been totally fined. Yeah, but instead
he got a prince hex. He was the he was
on the tail end of a prince hex and you
don't ever want to me Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was
another Prince hext, wasn't it.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (47:44):
I'm surprised he didn't say like Harry said proudly, or
like or Harry said casually.
Speaker 3 (47:49):
Actually that would be more he how.
Speaker 4 (47:51):
He would say it, Yeah, totally.
Speaker 1 (47:55):
So all right, well, I think that pretty much wraps
up this week. Do we have anything else we need
to say before we get to our dice roll?
Speaker 3 (48:04):
I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (48:05):
I think that all of this is a pretty, like
I said, straightforward page.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
But we did learn a lot as far as well.
Speaker 1 (48:13):
And oh, I'm sorry, we need to do our page
ranking and we didn't really do that last week either day.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
Oh yeah, no, we didn't do it last week, and
I think that was because it was very clearly not
going to beat the King of the Hill.
Speaker 3 (48:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Actually, I mean I don't know, but current King of
the Hill, current rating champ is the page with the
imperious person Moody's class.
Speaker 4 (48:33):
Right, personally, I would put this higher.
Speaker 2 (48:36):
I think so too. Yeah, I think we should put
this one at number one.
Speaker 4 (48:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
It's super funny and classic and all the things.
Speaker 4 (48:46):
We look for in a page.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
Yeah, exactly, So I think we should just go with that,
all right.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
So this is our reigning champion, the Elf Tails page
four twenty.
Speaker 3 (48:57):
It's perfect, yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:59):
And it just yeah, it's so fun, like so much
about this page just is what we love.
Speaker 1 (49:04):
Yeah, exactly. So all right, very fun. So anything else
you wanted to say? Nope, okay, Well then I guess
we're moving on to our dice roll.
Speaker 3 (49:17):
All right, so I'm putting in the dice roll sound
and Book three page four thirty one? Is that? Does
this book go to four thirty one? Mmm?
Speaker 4 (49:29):
I don't know, Oh it does?
Speaker 3 (49:30):
Okay, it's like, okay, the last pages of the book.
Speaker 4 (49:33):
Okay, perfect books. You know we haven't we.
Speaker 3 (49:36):
Still haven't done book two or Book seven, right right?
Speaker 4 (49:40):
Or Book one?
Speaker 2 (49:41):
Oh yeah, true, So we've only done Prisoner of Azkabe
and Goblet of Fire, Order the Phoenix, and Halflood prints.
Speaker 3 (49:47):
So weird, and this is our third order the Phoenix page.
Speaker 1 (49:52):
Yes, sorry what what page did you say? It is
four thirty one?
Speaker 3 (49:55):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (49:56):
Okay, all right, so book book three, page four thirty one,
and that will be lots of fun. It's gonna I
think we're gonna be on the platform at King's Cross
or what. Well, let's just the book goes until page
four thirty five, so either that either platform or on
the train still maybe.
Speaker 1 (50:17):
Yeah, or maybe like at the final end of your
feast or something like that.
Speaker 2 (50:21):
But that would be kind of a lot to fit
into four pages, but maybe true.
Speaker 4 (50:25):
Yeah, somewhere in there though. End of the year we're
wrapping up.
Speaker 1 (50:29):
However, I think next week we are potentially not going
to be doing this like one page at a time.
We're gonna probably either be doing a take five or
a character study. So just just to be aware, this
next one page at a.
Speaker 4 (50:44):
Time will be coming up probably in like two weeks.
Speaker 3 (50:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:48):
Sorry, side note before we jump into the last bit
of this podcast. I just was on I was on
Barry grad Praise Wikipedia, and I have to say the
Wikipedia page might have the real burn of the week.
So it says during the COVID nineteen pandemic, Grand Prey
branched out from paintings and began making sock monkeys as
a way to cope with stress.
Speaker 3 (51:07):
And then it says some of these monkeys have been sold.
Speaker 9 (51:14):
Some of them have not exactly, So thank you for that,
very Grand Prey for the monkeys, sock monkey Queen.
Speaker 3 (51:27):
Some of these monkeys have been sold.
Speaker 4 (51:32):
What a random thing.
Speaker 3 (51:34):
Yeah, Also, like that was her way.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
I mean, I know we all did stuff during COVID
that was like, as a way to cope with the
stress of the pandemic.
Speaker 3 (51:43):
She start began making soft.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
Gosh, I wish I had a productive hobby like that
during COVID s.
Speaker 4 (51:49):
I could be rich if I had sold a few
of those.
Speaker 3 (51:51):
Some of them have been sold.
Speaker 2 (51:55):
With partial pro partial proceeds going towards COVID relief journeys.
God forbid all the proceeds. She wasn't rich enough from
illustrating Harry Potter. She needed to keep some of those proceeds, right, Oh, celebrities.
Speaker 3 (52:14):
I'm just gonna google Mary Grand Praise sock Monkeys really quick,
because well.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
It looks like it links to an Instagram post about them.
Speaker 3 (52:20):
Oh yeah, that's what I was just looking.
Speaker 2 (52:22):
Yeah, she has a whole account, Mary Grand Prey Underscore Monkeys,
three hundred.
Speaker 3 (52:29):
And thirty one followers.
Speaker 2 (52:31):
How have we Oh, she kind of cooked with that.
She has basically as many followers as the.
Speaker 4 (52:35):
Real weird sisters.
Speaker 3 (52:37):
They are interesting looking sock monkeys. They're not just the class.
Speaker 2 (52:41):
We have more followers than Mary Grand Praise sock Monkeys.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
Her most recent post is from October twenty twenty three.
Oh my gosh, I like this one. Sylvia Celestin poet
hanging out.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
I mean, I know we've got some sock monkey people
out there, but that seems so random.
Speaker 2 (53:06):
Yeah, and these are I mean, well, I will say
these are very creative looking at sock monkeys, but yeah.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
They've got more like they kind of look like baboons
or something.
Speaker 3 (53:18):
Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. They look like raffiki. Yeah,
exactly interesting on her her own Instagram because on Mary
grad Prey Underscore Monkeys, her bio says I am painter
Mary grand Prey and her her actual account is linked
and very interesting. She does a lot of abstract mixed
medium paintings, a little bit more her maybe what she
(53:43):
was meant to do.
Speaker 4 (53:44):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.
Speaker 1 (53:46):
It looks more like abstract so we don't have to
get the like proportions of people acting, right, Okay, I
just want to read out one post of when she
sold her first monkey sold the highest bidder.
Speaker 2 (54:01):
So happy to send jewels to a new loving home.
Thank you Jimmy for helping with this effort to benefit
Feeding America. Goodbye sweet Jewels, Oh.
Speaker 4 (54:12):
My next monkey a month.
Speaker 2 (54:13):
Auction will be held on the first Monday in March
three one, twenty twenty one, two pm Eastern time, and
I have no idea who that monkey will be.
Speaker 4 (54:27):
Okay, well it was.
Speaker 3 (54:30):
Looks like it was neo.
Speaker 2 (54:32):
Well okay, And just to be clear, she did give
a large portion of the profit to charity because one
of her yeah, neo, she sold for five hundred and
twenty dollars and four hundred and seventy five went to
Feeding America.
Speaker 3 (54:44):
Okay, So she just kept.
Speaker 2 (54:49):
Probably for her costs of the materials for her troubles.
Speaker 1 (54:54):
Yeah, okay, Well, anyway.
Speaker 3 (54:59):
She had.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
She did some better things during the pandemic than the author.
Speaker 3 (55:04):
Yeah, let's put it that way.
Speaker 2 (55:05):
A much better way to spend your pandemic than the author. Yeah,
so we really can't complain too much about her, we can.
We can tease her in loving spirit and joy.
Speaker 3 (55:17):
Some of these monkeys have sold, well, it sounds like
she wanted to keep most of them because they're very
close to her.
Speaker 2 (55:23):
Yeah, she loves them. Goodbye sweet jewels. Yeah, she seemed
a little bit sad to be parting with any of them.
Speaker 4 (55:29):
Yeah, all right, well, thank you for that.
Speaker 3 (55:33):
Maybe the shout out to her three hundred and thirty
one followers.
Speaker 1 (55:37):
I just wish the author could have made sock monkeys
during the pandemic instead of that is getting on to Twitter.
Speaker 3 (55:42):
Yeah, exactly, that's the real lesson of the week. My favorite,
my favorite pick I just was looking at her highlights
on her Instagram and uh, monkey Mania is one of
them and the last one.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
There's only four slides in this. She says, say hello
to lover, it's this picture of a monkey's face.
