Speaker 1 (00:00):
Book six, page three eighty eight.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
May I have your attention? Please? May I have your attention? Please? Well,
the real Weird Sisters please stand up. We're gonna have
a problem. Here were the Weird Sisters? Where the real
weird sisters? All you are the weird sisters of Fine
but not of the victors. Well, the real weird Sisters,

(00:25):
please stand up, please stand up, Please stand up.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Hi, and welcome to the Real Weird Sisters. I'm Alice
and I'm Martha, and today we're here to talk about
the three hundred and eighty eighth page of Harry Potter
and the Half Blood Prince. Martha, We're back to Half
Blood Prince. And I think your prediction of where we
were going to be in the book has once again
come fairly true. Well, I'm very proud of myself. I

(00:51):
predicted it would be from the Birthday Surprises chapter, and
it is in fact in chapter eighteen Birthday Surprises. However,
it is not from the titular Birthday Surprises scene, right,
which I'm sad about because I was really hoping it
would be. But did I predict I don't remember. I
don't even remember. But I don't remember either. I think
you might have said you guessed or you agreed with me,

(01:13):
but no, I think I made you guess first, because
I usually guess first. I think I said, like a
slug horn lesson or something. Yeah you did, you said
a slug corn lesson this. Yeah, but you were definitely
right about approximately where in the book we would be.
And yes, like you said, not actually from that scene.
But I think I think we'll make a meal out
of this no matter what. Yes, I think so too.

(01:35):
So before we get too far, we do have quite
a bit of housekeeping because we have oh yes, our
two band name and album name polls that we haven't
updated the listeners on Marine. Well, yeah, that's what I
was about to say. This is the real recent people
are here, is that we didn't tease this last week
that we were not only going to be talking about
page three hundred and eighty eight of half Floot Prints,
but we would also be giving the results of the

(01:58):
band name an album name from not only last week
the week before. So going back to book one, page
three hundred and four, we had the closest we've ever
gotten to a band name not getting a vote, which
is we've got two votes, which is still decent, but
it's only four percent of the vote. So that was

(02:19):
the band name Nice and Empty. Unfortunately, that did not
do very well. And I have to say, I think
that might have been an idea from you, Alice. I
don't think so. You always think I came up with that.
I'm just kidding. I wanted to see if you knew
that I was doing that or not. I'm pretty sure
it was yours. Pretty sure they might have all been
mine this time, exactly. They frequently are. I wasn't very

(02:43):
good at coming up with band names from these past
few pages. I remember that hopefully now that you kind
of had two weeks off because we did these both
in advance, so maybe you're you're coming back refreshed and
ready to We'll see if I share some band names.
Exactly come up with amazing band name titles this week? Yes, exactly. So.
Our winner for book one, page three or four was

(03:07):
Wheezing Waffle. As usual, Dumbledore is coming through with the
band names. Would be pretty funny band name. I do
like that. Yeah, I can't say I'm one hundred percent
sure what kind of genre it would be. Case music. Yeah,
I don't even know if that fits though, Like h

(03:28):
And also it could be it could be like, yeah, no,
I'm picturing just like a regular kind of rock band,
like yeah, who fighters or something. I mean, you know what,
I guess I could see that too. It's kind of
I guess if I had to, if I was like
pressured to say what I thought it was. But it

(03:48):
doesn't it doesn't really fit for me. Like I don't know,
I I guess. All I'm saying is I probably wouldn't
have voted for a weezing waffle mysel the truth comes out.
I'm not sure which one I would have voted for,
though I Feast alone got twelve percent of the vote
and Old school Friends got thirty five percent. I think
I like Old school Friends best, even though I think
I remember now that one was yours. I believe, and

(04:08):
I also poo pooed it at the time because I
said it was too similar to I said it was
too similar to twins parents and two best friends, which
were similar ones that had not gotten not been winners. Well,
Old school Friends got thirty five percent of the vote,
so it did pretty well. Yeah, as far as album name,
this was another runaway winner. Here another year gone, and

(04:30):
once again, thank you Dumbledore.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
I like that one a lot for an album name.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
I do too, smiling and waving wizard photographs, and one
last Checkup Uh pretty much tied, although One Less Checkup
surprisingly was the closest second second place. Yeah, yeah, maybe
that's just a madam all right. So then for the
next week we had from page from book five, page

(04:55):
four ninety two. It was a little closer all around,
but our winner was Underground Train. So it's gonna be
probably a parody band of Train, Yeah, I think underground
type music. Yeah. I don't know if it's gonna be
necessarily a parody, like their music will be a parody.
I think the the name of them is definitely a parody.

(05:16):
It could be it could be like a Train cover band. Yeah,
I was thinking that too when you said once you
said a parody Train is just one person though, right, okay,
they we're not talking about that anymore. But yeah, I
think that it would actually be a great for like
a local, like an indie band that's like just plays it, like,

(05:38):
you know, fairs and stuff. Yeah, and I feel like
they would do some Train cover songs, but then they
would also have some of their own music. Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
so I liked that that one one. I think that
was probably the best one. Yeah, losers were deadly German, innocent,
clean people. Kind of funny because those came from a
very similar part of the page I remember. And then

(05:59):
like Sir Bince was in second place twenty nine percent,
so yeah, that was a little closer that week. And
then as album name here, we had a kind of
a runaway forty nine percent of the vote went to
a truly terrible thought, but close for the rest of
them Writhe and Squirm was the loser thirteen percent, something

(06:23):
he didn't have last time eighteen percent and out of
his skull twenty percent. Out of his skull is funny
because it's still kind of one of my favorites. To
be honest, I don't really like it very much. Yeah,
I was gonna say, back to the Underground Train, I'm
glad that that one won because it helps you remember
that they were in fact on a train in that

(06:44):
chat on that page, even though you multiple times were like,
they're not on a train. Oh wait, that's who they are.
So now now you'll always remember that Harry did take
the underground train. Yes he did, and with all those
people it's it just goes to show you learn something
new every time you read these books exactly. So speaking

(07:05):
of learning something new on this page that we're going
to be talking about today, there's definitely something that I
don't remember, and I hope that you also either don't
either remember, but if you don't remember, the hope that
you also refrained from searching it or looking in the
book just finding it up, well, not even searching it up,
I mean like searching through the book to like yeah,

(07:27):
oh no, no, no, that is not allowed, because that's
forbidden exactly. So yeah, I'm good. So there's something on
this page that I we're going to have to discuss
to try to remember if we're going to learn something
or remember something that we might have forgotten about. Yeah, okay,
well I'm not sure what you're talking about. So well,
it doesn't jump out at me, but we'll see when
we get when we get there. Okay, all right, there's

(07:49):
gonna be a lot of Alice reading on this page.
It's not a lot of dialogue, so sorry to all
of the impression stands out there.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
All right, So let's go ahead and jump right into
this page.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Okay, Harry looked down at the map, disappointed, but rallied
almost at once. Well, I'm keeping an eye on him
from now on, he said firmly. And the moment I
see him lurking somewhere with Crab and Goyle keeping watch outside,
it'll be on with the old invisibility cloak and off
to find out what he's He broke off.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
As Neville entered the dormitory, bringing with him a strong
smell of singed material, and began rummaging in his trunk
for a fresh pair of pants. Despite his determination to
catch Malfoy out, Harry had no luck at all over
the next couple of weeks. Although he consulted the map
as often as he could, sometimes making unnecessary visits to

(08:45):
the bathroom between lessons to search it, he did not
once see Malfoy anywhere suspicious. Admittedly, he spotted Crab and
Goyle moving around the castle on their own more often
than usual, sometimes remaining stationary and deserted corridor, But at
these times Malfoy was not only nowhere near them, but
impossible to locate on the map at all. This was

(09:07):
most mysterious. Harry toyed with the possibility that Malfoy was
actually leaving the school grounds, but could not see how
he could be doing it given the very high level
of security now operating within the castle. He could only
suppose that he was missing Malfoy amongst the hundreds of
tiny black dots upon the map. As for the fact

(09:28):
that Malfoy, Crab.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
And Goyle appeared to be going their different ways when
they were usually inseparable, these things happened as people got older.
Ron and Hermione Harry reflected sadly, were living proof. February
moved toward March with no change in the weather except
that it became windy as well as wet, to general
indignation and scene. Wow, Alice, you did a very good job.

(09:54):
It was a lot that you had to do there,
so well done. There was a few times I struggled,
but I didn't getting to say castle. I enjoyed getting
to hear it, and I also enjoyed February or however
you said it, February moved towards March. Yeah, okay, So
did you figure out what's the mystery on this page?
For me? Well? Were you wondering why Neville smelled a

(10:16):
singed material? Yes? Okay, me too, and I don't know.
I don't remember the fresh pair of paths. I mean,
I'm guessing something happened in potions or maybe in transfiguration
or charms. I do think we have a kind of
moral dilemma here because we are supposed to be informing

(10:37):
our listeners on the podcast, or you know, at least
you know, providing discussion food for thought. But also we
have set ourselves the rule that we're not allowed to
look back at pages. So should we try to answer
this question? No, I don't w wtqqot wb.

Speaker 3 (10:59):
Why did Will smell of singed material when he re
entered the door?

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Because that's the dormitory. That's not a core question because
I think, well, let me explain to the listeners why
it's not. I I really think it's probably the page
before this that explains why. So it's not going to
be a coral question. But yeah, I think we should
get to look at the previous page. Whoa Okay, one

(11:23):
previous page. Okay, so one previous page. Oh, who had
jammed a door on the fourth floor show using to
let anyone pass until they set fire to their own pants?
Oh so Nevill did it to himself intentionally? Okay, I
have to say that that's a deep cut, and I'm

(11:44):
pretty proud of ourselves that, like, out of all the
things for us to forget, that's a pretty minor thing.
I would I would be very impressed if any listeners
did remember specifically that that's why Neville was looking for
a new pair of pants and why he smelled of
singed material. That's a great moment. Not to toot the
author's horn anymore than is deserved, which is not at all.

(12:06):
But I do love in the series when there's moments
like this that, like, it doesn't explicitly say that Neville
is the one who got caught by Peeves having to
set fire at his own pants, but we could, you know,
look back a page and see just this quick mention
of Nevill's smelling of singed material and rummaging in his
trunk for a fresh pair of pants. That's a very
now classic thing. British version probably said trousers, right, I

(12:31):
don't think so. I think that it means underwear, doesn't it.
In British English, it can, but I think it can
mean both. I'm not sure. I just have to say
I don't think it is just because it's the sixth
book and I feel like those britishisms have. Like I
think if this was the first book, I would be
sure that it was said a different word. But I feel
like by the time we get to the sixth book,

(12:52):
most of the time we're going to need to do
a pretty consistent British version check. So please someone alert
us was it did it say trousers or pants in
the British version? And I guess also alert us, although
we could google it because wouldn't you like a healthy
breeze around his privates that's for a skirt. Yeah, I'm
just saying yes. But my point is that I think

(13:15):
we should probably google. Does in British English? Is it
only pants only means underpants? I don't think it does,
but maybe you're right. Okay, well get to googling. Okay,
you're usually at quicker googler than me.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
I just feel like you're the one questioning me, so
I don't want.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
To be the one giving. Okay, it says pants pants
primarily refers to underpants, but it can be it can
be both, probably more too, as like globalization takes place
right you know, you know. According to According to Reddit,
this person on Reddit says almost almost exclusively means what

(14:01):
Americans would call underwear. Okay, yeah, so that's what I
was thinking. Yeah, so we'll see. I do want to
know if what the British version says, So please, if
there's somebody listening who has the copy of the British version,
please let us know. This is this Reddit threat that says,
what do you normally call these pants or trousers? It's
in our slash English learning. Somebody said, yeap, but if

(14:24):
you call them trousers in the US, we would know
what you meant and we would assume you were British, right.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
A fresh pair of trousers.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah, that's a good You know, you're kind of selling
me on this, Okay, I'm just curious.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
Actually, we have a friend who has.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
The British version that we're going over to their house
later today, so I will try to look it up
there if I remember, and we won't get it fixed.
We won't. We won't answer it on the podcast. Maybe
next week. Well I think by the time that next
week has rolled around, a listener will have corrected us
on it, right too. But I'm just I'm honestly curious.
So well, you're just like Harry. Harry was curious, yes,

(15:05):
very curious. Curiously yes, curiously or on curiously or Okay,
So thoughts on the page overall, I mean, I I
always like, I did really enjoy the Harry trying to
be onto Malfoy and the mystery of what Malfoy was
doing in this book. So this is kind of, you know,
part of the setup of that. I wouldn't necessarily agree

(15:29):
personally as far as my thoughts on the Malfoy thing,
I do think I it's probably my least favorite part
of the sixth book. Not that I dislike it, I
just it's never been something that I I feel like
when I read it the first time, it was kind
of didn't feel all that important because the mystery is there, yes,
but also we do know that, like there is like

(15:53):
we know that Harry's right, so because of the Unbreakable
Vowe scene. So it's a weird thing where it's like
everybody thinks Harry wrong, but like we as the reader
actually do know that Malfoy is up to something because
we saw the Unbreakable Vow scene. We don't know exactly
what's happening or where he is. But like, to me,
the mystery was never like my favorite part of this book.

(16:14):
I do like this page. I think it's a well
written page. I obviously, like I said last week, I
really love pages where we see Harry's inner thoughts and
him kind of going down a rabbit hole of thinking
and that. I mean, I guess that's what's enjoyable about
the Malfoy mystery in this book is seeing Harry kind
of mine. Harry reflected, we're living proof, right, So I mean, yeah,

(16:37):
that's that's good context for this page too, knowing where
where in the book this is happening. But yeah, I
just I guess as far as the page goes, it's
a less important page in the grand scheme of things
as some of the Yeah, it's more of an expository page,
like we're setting up that Harry's.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
Going to be tracking Malfoy basically, right.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
So it's yeah, I mean, it wasn't my favorite page
I've ever read as far as like, Yeah, I'm always
a little sad when there's not much dialogue. Yeah, not
only because I have to read the whole page, but
also because I just like the dialogue in the books,
and well it's more funny. Yeah, yeah, but I do like,
I do like when Harry was firmly saying, well, I'm

(17:19):
keeping an eye on him from now on, like just
being like very like full of himself as far as
that goes. Yeah, it's not entirely clear, not entirely clear
who he's talking to there. I'm guessing to Ron Or
maybe they are in the dormitory, so it's can't be Hermione. Well,
but the dormitory also means the common room, doesn't it. Well, no,

(17:40):
they're up in the dormitory that Nevill's changing into new pants.
They have to be up in their room. But don't
they call griffindor Tower the dormitory too. I guess, Yeah,
Nevill's in his trunk. You're right, so that's yeah, that's
why I'm saying it. Yeah, Okay, you're right, But yeah, no,
I think for sure. Yeah, he talking to Ron, and

(18:01):
I just like when he gets determined about something that
cracks me up. Well, it's also, Yeah, that's the best
part of this Malfoy plot in the sixth book, is
how Harry is so determined and everybody else thinks he's
like crazy. Yeah, so adverb of the Week. We didn't
have a lot to choose from here, we have Yeah,
firmly and sadly. Yeah, we have Harry reflected sadly too, right,

(18:22):
that's true. But I think firmly yeah, And I do
like again, like I'm saying that, I like when Harry
gets his mindset to something and he's yes, and it's
like it's funny too. I mean, I do think this
is one of those situations where he did maybe have
to be firm because Ron was trying to talk him
down about this Malfoy stuff. But oftentimes, when Harry's saying
something firmly or like resolutely, it's not necessarily the most

(18:46):
necessary for him to be as firm as he's being
because it's like most of the time his friends are
on the same page as him. But yeah, this is
not one of those cases. So I guess he did
have to be firm. Yeah, so exactly. So the was
it in the movie Slash Remiondi's Beaded Back. We kind
of touched on this. I feel like it's not really

(19:07):
in the Like, I don't remember how much he does
this in the movie. I guess a little bit. It
doesn't really do much of it in the movie, Like
it's kind of a hard thing to do, kind of
for the same reason I was talking about, because like
deciding how much in the know the audience is and
then like having to then combat that with one of
the characters being onto something that the other characters think

(19:29):
is fake but the audience knows is not fake. That's
pretty hard to do well. We know that anything that's
hard to do well is not done in the Harry podcast.
If it's hard to do well, then there's a chance
that it's a little bit flubbed in the book, and
then that there's an even higher chance it will be
flubbed in the movie. Well, what I meant is, yes,
you're right, But what I meant is that it's uh,

(19:52):
if it's attempted, it's not done well. And the movie
makers did have the self awareness I think at this
point to not even really try to do this kind
of thing. I mean, it also just has the potential
to be boring in the movie of like Harry king
at the map, you know, like yest they do that
a fair amount in the third movie, and I think
it's okay, but like it gets old when he's constantly

(20:13):
going back to the map. Yeah, this was kind of
uh O. Joshi didn't contender here. I was thinking about
And I actually really mostly like the design of the
Marauder's map in the movie. I don't love the third movie,
as everyone knows, but I think that the map has
done pretty well. But what's it's like, It's not exactly

(20:34):
all that similar to how it's described in the book,
like this mention of the he could only suppose that
he was missing Malfoy amongst the hundreds of tiny black like, oh,
what a useful tool to have in your toolbox here,
like you can you could easily just not find somebody
because there's hundreds of black dots, like it's I mean,
I know, like they cleared it up for the movie's sake,

(20:56):
because it's a movie, Like for visuals, you have to
be able to see what you're trying to look at
in the movie. But good good on them for not
making it hundreds of black dots on the Marauders map
in the movie, because that that concept does not add up,
Like how how really are are they using the Marauder's
map to their advantage all the time? Like I wish
you could, like I was there was like a search

(21:17):
function or like you know what I mean, and all
that would go haywire. But I know, we've talked.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
About this before, and I totally agree with you.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Like when I was reading this, I was like thinking
about that again, and I'm like I hate that idea
of just like all those dots, and especially because it's
like how big is the Marauders map? That part has
never been totally clear either. Yeah, I know it's like
bigger than like you could you unfold it so like
it becomes bigger, but like still like you can't have
it be this massive map to be I mean, like

(21:47):
to be able to see the detail of all of
the rooms of Hogwarts and like see hundreds of people
walking around in it, Like that would be such tiny
like font yeah, I would be able to I would
constantly be losing the dot that I was looking at
and then like not being able to find it again.
Like maybe not a search function even I mean, yes,

(22:08):
the search would be very helpful, but if it could
be like just like once you found a dot, like
to just touch it or something, and then that's the
one that you're like, that's the only one that appears
on the map or something, and it is magical. So
you would think that it would have that capability of like, right,
I mean it was designed by sixteen year olds, so
like that's part of it maybe, but maybe Hermione, I
mean Hermione doesn't super approve the maps, so maybe that's

(22:31):
why it never got fixed. But I feel like Hermione
could have like done a few extra and it hanslates
to it. Like you said, like once you there should
be something where you say, like Malfoy and then like
it like zooms in on him, right or it like
erases the other dots his names and then yeah, yeah
highlight Yeah, a highlight function that would work. Well yeah,

(22:53):
I just think like and but like I said, I
think the the fact that every dot is labeled too
that makes it even Yeah, it has to be huge.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Well you're picturing like, let's see when they're all walking
in the hallway, it would just be like a black blur. Yeah,
you wouldn't be able to see the names at all.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
It doesn't make sense. Yeah, So I think that definitely
was I don't know if there's other contenders for the
OJO she didn't, but that one, to me for sure
is like an inconsistency. Yeah, that it's difficult to visualize.
That the only reason I didn't like it for the ojo.
She didn't is like it's not specific to this page,
but it's described on this page. And yeah, it's I
think she spelled out on this page. Yeah more than sometimes, Yeah, yeah,

(23:34):
even more than usual, like it's really shown to us
just how like not well designed this is. Yeah, So
anyhow I would agree about that for sure. Dialogue ratio
we had it was one one for one, right as
far as well, no he's it is said, yeah, right,
but we all do we count the Harry reflected sadly,

(23:57):
even though it's not dialogue per se, it is a
word that could be used as a dialogue word, right,
I think that counts. So it's one for two. Then
we have one non set and one said, Yeah, that
seems to be about what, like I feel like we're
typically looking at that on the bit it seems like
that Yeah, of the pages we've done this for, which
I think is like four but maybe not large enough

(24:19):
to be a good sample size, But yeah, I do agree,
seems consistent. Yeah, okay, So I did have like one
sort of humble brag of the week that I that
really stood out to me. Do you have any I
was struggling.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Mine was the fact that Harry referred to it as
the old invisibility cloak.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
And it wasn't. It's not I'm not saying that as
a burn of the week. I'm saying that as a like,
so casual, like, man, I've got that old invisibility cloak. No, biggie,
it's on with that. Yeah, that's true, you know, like
he's just like, so it's so casual, it'll be all
with the old invisibility cloak. Mm hmmm. I do see
that as a humble breg for sure. I kind of

(25:07):
thought that this was I guess it could be a
help brag that this is not the one I thought
of first. I'll say that. I guess I'll say the
one I thought of first, which was just the I'm
keeping an eye on. Yeah, that's it's kind of an
obvious one. But yeah, that he said firmly. It's like
a congrats, I'm doing that. But yeah, we're proud of you, Harry.

(25:28):
We know, well he's not going to be escaping your
watchful line, right well, so that this kind of goes
along with that. The He consulted the map as often
as he could, sometimes making unnecessary visits to the bathroom
between lessons. To search any Oh, well done, Harry. He
is determined, determined, and he's he's quite he's quite resourceful

(25:49):
and sneaky to be able to write. Let me take
a quick I don't need to be in class right now. Well,
and also, like, congrats, you don't have to use the
bathroom between glasses. Those visits are necessary. He's got he's
got an iron bladder. Yeah, exactly. And then I guess
this next line honestly could work too, that he spotted
Crab and Goyle moving around the castle on their own

(26:09):
more often than usual. Oh, good job spotting that, Harry.
It's kind of a humble brag and burn in one.
I'd say that's a burn on Crab and Goyle because
it's like they usually are pretty stationary but there. But
I also thought it was like, oh, Harry spotted them
more often than usual. Good job, good spotting, Harry. Yeah,
it's yeah, like you said, it's kind of both. But yeah,

(26:31):
Crab and Oyle they're moving around on their own more
often than usual they're usually going around at all. Yeah.
I also I thought this one was pretty good. The
very high level of security now operating within the castle. Yeah,
congrats on the high level of security to Hogwarts for

(26:53):
really ramping up that security, right, and others for you. Yeah,
I don't I didn't really see a whole lot of others. Yeah,
I don't know. I guess the Harry looked down of
the map disappointed, but rallied almost at once. So wow,
he doesn't stay He gets mad, but he doesn't stay mad.

(27:16):
He can't keep him down. Yeah, he can't keep a
good man down exactly. Yeah, there's not as many burns
I feel like as usual. Sound No, there's definitely not.
I think the one about crab and Oyle moving around
more often than usual for the burn. Yeah, yeah, I
guess it's kind of a burn on Malfoy. He toyed

(27:38):
it at the possibility that Malfoy was actually leaving the
school grounds, but could not see how he could be. Yeah. Yeah,
he's like Malfoy is not clever enough for that. He's
not like me making unnecessary trips to the bathroom. I
also like how it's Harry making unnecessary visits to the
bathroom between lessons. Oh, he's a serious student. He takes

(28:00):
class seriously right, Like he's not gonna be He's not
gonna be leaving class to do this. Right. Well, I
mean if he if it was making all these unnecessary trips,
you'd think some of them wouldn't just be between lessons. But yeah,
I mean if it was me, I would have been
taking advantage of getting out of class a little bit too,
you think. Yeah. I also like this isn't exactly a

(28:22):
humble brag or a burn, but it's just another like
Harry being we already sort of talked about it. But
I like how Harry.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Harry's reflecting these things happened as people got older.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Oh wow, he's so wise. Harry is very reflective and wise.
It is. That's a sad moment though, because it's like
I always I actually remember that line, like it definitely
sticks out of my mind of like when Harry's thinking
about that big living proof of people going separate ways. Yeah,
but it does. It is very also typical of like

(28:55):
a teenager, Like I mean it it, yes, he's learning
this lesson of people going separate ways, but also like
it's been a few it's been a few weeks, like
and they're gonna be fine. Well, I know that's what
makes it sad, is that that's that's what makes it
sad for me, is that Harry's thinking this way when
really it's not as serious as he thinks it is. Yeah,
another kind of burn. This is random, But there's a

(29:18):
there's a burn on March or on February, because February
moved toward March with no change in the weather except
that it became windy as well as wet. So it's like,
it's not a burn on March or February. Sorry, I
guess it's February because we're not quite at March yet,
so it's just showing February sucks. We kind of not.
We all know that, right, that's that's a good burn

(29:41):
on February. Right. I actually saw one more humble brag here.
It's about Malfoy being so sneaky again. Malfoy was nowhere,
not only nowhere near them, but impossible to locate on
the map at all. Oh okay, he is a ninja
like he cannot be found. He's impossible. Oh he is

(30:02):
he is, and not even especially Harry can't find him. Seriously, well,
it's impossible to find at all, like not just for hair,
like I think I think. I mean, it's implied, yes
it's Harry doing it, But if Harry can't find him,
then nobody can. Exactly. That's what I'm saying, Like, if
I can't believe Harry can't find him like this is,
he's impossible. He's impossible to locate. That's how. That's how

(30:24):
sneaky boy is. He is a ninja like you said, yeah, exactly,
he's not only nowhere near them, but impossible to locate
at all. All right, well, let's take a quick break
now for our ads, and we will be back in
a minute to finish up all of our segments, including
our band name and album name. I know that's what

(30:47):
people look forward to most, Martha, the band name and
the album name. Right. Uh No, I think they look
forward to w w qqot w B the most. Wwt
q qot w b. Oh did I skip that T? Yeah?
Recently somebody said they were so impressed with how we
never messed that up. But I guess I let them down.
I don't want to give away the secret of why

(31:08):
we never mess that up, but it's usually because I'm
looking at it on the page. I don't think that's why.
That's when I read when I say it's time for
the W two lin and I do that.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
I usually I usually am, sorry to say, I.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
Usually am looking at the outline. I don't I doubt
that you are, though. I don't think you're reading that
acronym from the outline. I mean, okay, I guess you're right.
I'm I'm just a queen that can remember the wwtqqw'
not that hard to remember, Alice, I really don't think
you're reading each letter individually from the outline. Well, it's

(31:40):
sort of it's sort of like help. It's kind of
like when you're reading piano music and you're like both
playing it from muscle memory, but you also need that
visual You're not like reading individual notes, but it like
helps you. Yeah, I guess maybe.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Okay, Well, shall we get into our band name and
album name of the week?

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Any any names popping out at you for band named Martha? Yeah,
I thought there were a few options that I saw here. Definitely,
we had deserted corridors. There was also singed material, usually
inseparable M living proof. I like living proof that one.

(32:24):
I I also had thought of deserted corridors. I feel like,
what was the third one you said, M cinge material. No,
that was the second one you said. There was another
one that I didn't like as much, but it's okay.
I'll just leave it off because we have so far
deserted corridors. Singed material, living Proof, oh, usually inseparable. I

(32:47):
like also tiny black dots. Oh yeah, that's good. So
should we do that as our fourth one? Yeah, but
I don't think I really like singe material. Oh okay,
there's also remain stationary.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
Yeah, that to me almost is more of like an
album title.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
But yeah, I guess we can't change it to r
y on stationary. Huh. Yeah that would be yeah, that
would be that would be cheating. But yeah, how about
fresh pair of pants?

Speaker 3 (33:18):
I thought of that too. Do you think that's for
album name or band name?

Speaker 1 (33:23):
I thought band name, but I like it with a
fresh pair of pants for album name, I guess. Yeah,
that's fine. So impossible to locate. I don't know. I
don't know. I'm not committed to any of these except
for maybe living Proof.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
Living Proof is going to be album name.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Sorry, No, I'm not committed to any of the band
names that I said, but you're yeah, I feel like okay,
I was trying to just brainstorm when I said all
of those. I see you went so fast it was
hard to keep up. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, I think
impossible to locate. I don't know. I guess that could
be an album name. Yeah, I like that. Okay, most mysterious,

(34:11):
very high level of security. No change in the weather. Oh, no,
change in the weather is good.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Oh I like that a lot for album name. Yeah,
I feel like our.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Band names right now. I guess we have tiny black
dots on there? So are we we're going with singed material? Well,
that was my least favorite. I don't like singe material.
And I also said that was the one you were
attached to. No, the only one I'm attached to is
living Proof. Oh okay, I personally like deserted corridors and
living Proof.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
And then we had said tiny black dots. I like
that one a lot.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
Yeah, it's good too. So let's think of one more.
Oh I did? I did think of General Indignation and
that's a band. Yeah, okay, it'd be like General Indignation.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Solute Hindy as well as Wet could be an album name.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
And I don't like that though, it's I don't I
don't like the were wet in that? Yeah, I get that.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
How about going their different ways?

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Yeah, didn't I say that already. Oh maybe I didn't
catch it if you did, But I've been saying a
lot of them fast. Yes you have Yeah, going there's
going there different ways is good. I think it's either
that or whatever I just said, things happened. No, I
think I said got older. No, the one I said

(35:28):
before that was the nowhere near them. Okay, No, I personally,
I think we're good with the ones we have. Okay.
So remaining stationary, impossible to locate, no change in wet
in the weather, and going their different ways for albums
and band names, deserted, deserted corridors, living proof, tiny black dots,
and general indignation. Yeah, those are good, perfect, all right, Well,

(35:51):
we'll put the pull up and you'll get your results
in a more timely manner this time. Everyone, Well, yes,
I can promise that. Yes, okay, So without further ado, Martha,
it's time for everyone's favorite segment. When I say w
you say w w w w wt QQTWB. Okay, all right.

(36:19):
I this is my first thought on this one, and
again I'm maybe eating my words a little bit because
this is a this is a question that could be
answered later in the book. But it's it's not not.
I don't think it's impossible that it would be found
on Quora, because it's yes, answered later in the book,
but it's also kind of not because you have to

(36:41):
kind of think critically about it to understand it gives people, Yeah,
they'll ask questions that are that you can look to
the text and get in direct right right. So this
is one where it's somebody got confused when they read
this page and they didn't really put together that Malfoy,
Crab and Goyle actually are working together in this book.

(37:02):
That the fact that Malfoy's not nearer them on the
map is that he's on the in the Room of Requirement,
and that's part of the magic of the room. So
the question that I was thinking is, uh, what is
it about Malfoy, Crab and Goyle that caused them to
go their separate ways in the Sixth Book or in
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prints, or what is

(37:22):
it about their relationship that meant that they would no
longer or you know, Claire from the Harry Potter Lexicon
would eat them alive for this question, well, yes, I
mean she has been the editor at the HP Lexicon
for decades at this point, so she has the expertise,
but there would also be people jumping into answer something
about how crabs thirst for blood had begun in this book,

(37:44):
and how that was going to become actually a pretty
big plot point for the people at Hogwarts in the
next year, the next Hogwarts, for next year at Hogwarts,
and how actually that's pretty not how Malfoy is, and
so that they would say that while you know, like, well,
it is not true that they did go their separate

(38:05):
ways in the sixth book. It is possible that the
boys were beginning to notice differences in their values, or
notice differences in their personalities, because, as we've seen in
Deathly Hallows, or as we will see in Deathly Hallows,
Crab had a thirst for blood that was not actually
in keeping with Draco's own cowardice, and the two were

(38:25):
probably at odds at times when it came to Crab
wanting to really hurt people in Malfoy wanting to avoid
any kind of real conflict and putting himself in danger
in any way, right exactly, Yeah, I agree, as I'm
thinking about it too. This is kind of a question

(38:46):
I have. It's not really a Cora, but it is
connected to what your your wwt QQOTWB is. I guess
I wonder why Harry never sees Malfoy walking with Crab
and Goyle to get to the Room of Requirement and
then disappearing, you know, Like it's not like he's never
with Crab and Goile, it's just when they're Harry seems

(39:08):
to always look at it at the wrong time. I guess, yeah,
that's a good point. I mean, I guess also Harry
does admit later like that he has note like that
he kind of forgot, like he just kind of forgot
about the Room of Requirement. So I think maybe like
it says that like he does he doesn't see Malfoy
anywhere suspicious. I think he does see Malfoy with Grab

(39:30):
and Goyle sometimes, like walking towards the Room of Requirement.
But he you're right, he has never got has never
like had the incident of looking at the map and
then seeing Malfoy disappear from the map, right, And I
guess too obvious. But yeah, it's just too bad that
he never seemed to write. But I think Malfoy quickly reappear,
you know, right, right, And I guess that's also the

(39:52):
issue with the map too, is that you're probably like,
so it'd be so impossibly you could he very well
could have been looking at the map when that did
happen once or twice. But there's hundreds of black dots
on there. But if you're not looking directly at Malfoy's, well,
ojo she didn't about that is that we were once
again calling into question how many people really are at

(40:12):
Hogwarts at hundreds? Does hundreds seem like the right? I mean,
so hundreds means at least two hundred, right, Yeah, And
I know that once once upon a time, I remember
the author said there were a thousand students at Hogwarts,
which kind of debunked, right, So I'm just saying, like
it could. I think the way the numbers break down,
you could get into hundreds pretty easily. I don't know though,

(40:34):
because look what there's like twenty five in Harry's year, right,
well that we know of, yes, I feel like we
only know of like eighteen, and we're we're rounding up
by saying twenty five. So there's twenty five in Harry's year,
and then then there's seven years no, and then what
maybe twenty professors? So yeah, we're at like one hundred

(40:56):
and fifty, it doesn't quite work. Yeah, I guess maybe
a hundred. Yeah, okay, sorry, more like we're we're almost
right at two hundred with those numbers, but still still
having that many dots on the map would be next
to impossible to read them unless it was a giant map, right,
I mean even I feel like this could be an
interesting project for somebody to do, Like them should look

(41:18):
at that, right, figure out the dimensions of how feasible
it would be, Like what's the smallest possible size of
the Marauders map to fit all the rooms of Hogwarts
and all the dots? Like I really think it should
like it's a very well not yeah also building. Yeah,
the way that the map it works too, Like it's

(41:38):
very confusing because Hogwarts is obviously not just one level,
So it's like, is it laid out like we've got
one level here and then we have one level here,
Like yeah, I picked levels. Yeah, but I mean that's
that's the true of a lot of maps, you know,
like you could do that. Yeah, but I'm just saying,
like fitting those all on there is a lot true

(41:58):
Yeah anyway, But enough about that, But that is another
question that I kind of had. Yeah, another possible core question,
and this would be one that I would kind of
not mind speculating about. Is you know, like if it
hadn't been for Crab's death, Like if Crab hadn't died
in seventh book, like, would Crab and Goyle and Malfoy
have stayed friends? Yeah, I that is a good question,

(42:22):
And I I kind of feel like maybe maybe Malfoy
and Goyle kind of I don't know, I don't think so.
I think that Malfoy and Goyle my thought has always
would be hanging out. But yeah, I mean, if they're
all kind of well, my thought, Yeah, my thought has
always been that Malfoy like and Goyle definitely just completely

(42:44):
lost touch because Malfoy just wanted to separate himself from
anything from his past. I feel like, and I don't
think that Goyle ever really that's I don't think that
they had really too much closeness. But maybe that's maybe
I'm honestly that Malfoy and Zabini were not better friends
because I know, I seem to have a lot more
in common as far as values and kind of what

(43:08):
they seem to be like. I mean, well, I feel
like that Zabini and Malfoy not being friends was kind
of a power thing. Like the two of them, they
thought that they were the hottest similar. Yeah, like you said,
a little bit in competition with one another, right, you'd
be kind of jealous of each other. Right, But I
just feel.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
Like they have way more in common than I guess.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Malfoy in the beginning of the series at least, really
just liked having two people who he could like boss
around and be in charge. Yeah, totally. I think that
was he never really was looking for a close friend,
He was looking for followers. Yeah, exactly. So yeah, I
don't think that he would have stayed in touch with
Crab and Oyle, and I don't think he did stay
in touch with just Goil either. Yeah. Malfoy just doesn't

(43:48):
really have a lot of friends, which is kind of sad. Right. Yeah, Well,
do that'll all change when with little Scorpius he'll set
the family record straight? Yes, exactly Scorpius. Okay, MVB on
this page, do we have an MVB. Well, yes, there's
definitely a WVB. Yeah, it's just about figuring out what

(44:09):
it is. That's a little bit hard. It could be
Malfoy since he's fleeing the map. Well, but I mean
there is an implication, of course that all the Hogwarts owls. Well, actually,
you know what now I'm realizing are animals on the
Marauders map. Well, we know that when the anime they are, yes, yeah,
but we don't know if that means do we know

(44:32):
do we know of any anime guy that are birds
that are at Hogwarts right now? I guess Dumbledore's Dumbledore's
patronis was a phoenix, but he never took the step
of becoming an anime gus, did he? I don't think
so that now he would have been a phoenix if
he had. Yeah, I don't think there's any others. But yeah,

(44:54):
I mean I was gonna say that the the dots
of the owls would.

Speaker 3 (44:58):
All be on bring it up to hundreds of if
we have all the owls.

Speaker 1 (45:01):
As well, that's true. Yeah, I don't know. That's kind
of tough. The she's the one flying off the map
from time to time, Okay, Yeah, that's fair. His dot
has flown off the map, has flown the coop Okay.
Malfoy's MVB and are we when we when you put

(45:23):
it in the spreadsheet, are you going to include a
little context for why? Yes, that's what I do. All right, good,
because I don't know if we'll remember I've got it
on there as Malfoy flying off the map. Perfect. Yeah, Okay,
we didn't talk about the w W GPD yet.

Speaker 3 (45:40):
Oh true, Yeah, I almost forgot about that.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
Or as as Abby pointed out last week, we called
it the Mary. Did you know.

Speaker 3 (45:50):
That's because we actually saw the actual picture.

Speaker 1 (45:53):
That's true. This one's tough. Again, it's such an expository page,
but I guess it would be a picture of the map.
Mary loves to draw the map. I mean she's drawn
it like once. She's talk for.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
It's I'm just saying it seems like an easy thing
to draw.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
Yeah, yeah, but I don't think she's drawn it a
bunch of times. She's saying if she's going for this page,
she's psyched to draw that map because it's like, Okay,
this will be a quick one. I can do this
in it one afternoon. Yeah. So the map with just
Cravin Gooyle's dots on it, or with no dots on it,
or with a bunch of dots on it? What are
you thinking? I was kind of just thinking like some
dots are not necessarily labeled. I do think it would

(46:34):
be kind of a point. Yeah, I think it would
be kind of a cool perspective. And I know perspective
is a trigger for Mary, but bring up that word
in front of her. But I think it would be
kind of cool to have it be a picture of Harry,
like kind of side profile, like kind of obsessing over
the map, like looking down at the map. And I agree,

(46:54):
I fixated on it sort of ideal. I'm not sure
if I kind of was thinking about this when I
was editing last week's episode, like are we what is
the standard here? Are we doing the ideal of what?
Like when we do that WWGPT? Is it what is
she capable of doing? Or what we would like her
to do? I think we can say both. I think

(47:16):
that's what we would like her to do. What she
would actually do would probably not be that. Yeah. I
like to talk about what would be the ideal though,
because I know I don't like to confine ourselves to
just what she's capable of doing. No, I agree, I
think we I don't know that I want to necessarily
make a whole new segment or anything, but I think
every time we talk about it. It's fine to say
what the what we would love to see, and then

(47:38):
to say what is also more realistic? Yeah okay, that's fine,
Yeah okay, but definitely map. You know, like I said,
I think she'd be psyched. It's a map week. I
don't know where the she's I mean, I guess she'
psyched because it's easy. That's what we're saying. Yeah, exactly.
I mean to be clear, neither of us could do
anything better than what she does. Not tried to say anything.

(48:01):
You have a I'm not trying to pretend like I'm
a good artist when I disperate her work a little bit.
It's it's just fun. Yeah, okay. We also have to
give a page score. Yes, what is it? Out of
ten or five? I can't remember? Out of ten? Okay,
and we don't do decimals. I am struggling to remember,

(48:22):
like what we've given the previous pages. Have we not
been putting it on the spreadsheet? No? I guess we
could start. This is only this is kind of a
recent segment. We added, Well, we when the first one,
I think we gave a seven, and we said we're
probably never going to give much lower than a seven,
and then we'd made a joke about how Justin was
probably going to tell us we needed to fix the system,
and we said, we're not going to because it's like,
you know, a seven for Harry Potter versus a seven

(48:44):
in general, and so we're doing a seven or sorry.
Then we proceeded to then give a four and a
five and a six or something after that. I don't
think we've given higher than seven yet. I think this
is probably a five. Yeah, I would agree with that.
It's it's like you had said earlier, it's kind of
it is good writing. Yes, I like the writing on it.

(49:04):
There's not a lot I can point to where I'm like,
oh that was like that was unnecessary or that was
point like that was poorly worded or anything like. No. No,
So I think it's a pretty good page in that sense.
It's just not as like entertaining as some pages or
consequential either. I mean, yes, the Malfoy stuff is important,
but it's just this is just Harry not like he's

(49:26):
not able to actually do anything on this page. All
he does is fail to do something. Yeah, so I
think we're gonna agree that this page is not going
to beat out elf tails in the in the ranking. No,
I don't think so. Yeah, I mean, again, not a
bad page, but it's definitely not as good as that
page was. No, it's not all right. Well, I think

(49:48):
that we've pretty much covered all of our main points.
Any other further thoughts or anything I missed there, Martha,
I don't think so. I think we've done everything we
need to. Oh you know what, actually, well, we do
have the dice, but I think we can do a
moral of the week. I think I like I've I've
started to like doing moral of the week more than
I used to. Oh okay, what moral of the week?
Well this, I think we have the brainstorm a little bit,

(50:09):
but I think we can come up with Every page
does teach us something exactly? So, I mean, is it
something like don't give up? You know, Harry, Harry's persevering
through challenges. He's continuing to fail, but he does not
give up. Is that persevering? And I also think like
being kind of creative like that that he comes up

(50:32):
with ideas of like how to channel some of his
continuers to make unnecessary visits to the bathroom. Well, no,
I mean just like that, he's that he's decided he's
going to be looking for Malfoy on the map, and yeah,
I mean it's not on the page, the like Ron
and Hermione not believing what he's saying, but maybe something
like it is implied that Harry has to be determined here.
So something like when you believe in something, keep proving

(50:56):
or keep working at or keep the faith and eventually
you don't see it come to fruition here, but eventually
your heart work will pay off, right right, That that
makes sense. Oh we didn't do real weirdo either. I
feel like it's got to be Neville for having pants.

(51:17):
It's I mean, off book, it's pay it's definitely Peeves,
like what is Yeah, but that doesn't count because he's
not on the phone, I know. But what's he getting
out of this? Like, well, yeah, he's kind of a statist.
We know that. It's just lord of chaos. But yeah, like,
oh that is so funny. They have to set fire
to their pads. Yeah, I just think like Neville, Yeah,

(51:38):
of course he was the sad sucker to actually, yeah,
have to do that. You know what we didn't even
consider is that maybe in British English this is pants.
Then it is. Actually in both versions, it's actually supposed
to be talking about his underpants. Yeah, it could be.
Although to set fire to one's underpants, one must, you'd assume,
also set fire to one's trousers, right, or take them off? Well,

(52:03):
there's a couple of different options. But I mean, because
like I said, like I said in the sixth book,
it's much less likely that the author or that the
publishers are making her change British words to American words.
So maybe she didn't change the British word to an
American word, and we just are assuming that it's referring
to the American pants and really it's referring to British. Yeah,
we're going to have to look at that British version.

(52:23):
But I also don't just I mean, I don't think
you think this either. But I don't think she was
the one changing those I think an editor went through
and changed word. I didn't I say that, didn't I
say her editor or her publisher.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
You said, I don't think her editor was making her
change words?

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Well, okay, yeah, I meant making that like making the
book be changed. Yeah, okay, Well, anyway, let's check that book.
We want to we want to look at the text
and get clarification there. But yes, I think Neville counts
as the real real That's fine with me, though, Yeah,
I mean I feel bad for him, but of course
he was, like I said, the sad sucker who well,

(52:58):
I must like the one who lit his actual pants
on So everybody else just turned around and walked went
a different way. Well it said that Harry and Ron
turned around and went a different way. Oh okay, Well
see I didn't look past that sentence. I didn't. I
knew that they were held up, but I didn't know
that they were held up because they took a different path. Yeah,
but so I don't know if other people also lit

(53:19):
their pants on fire. But it's like, of course Neville did.
But it's funny too because it's like, really, like what
Peeves is not going to keep following you at Like
there's always a different way you can go. Neville didn't
think of that clearly, so right, it kind of is
like again, like, really, Peeves is not a threat to you.
You can just walk a different way and maybe maybe
you lose a couple of minutes out of your day.
But clearly Neville was just going well, I mean he's

(53:41):
and maybe now he's losing even more time because he
had to go back to the dormitory for pants. But
it seems like he was just going to the dormitory, right, Okay, Well,
let's let's move on to our dice roll. This is
really now the last thing we have to do before
we wrapped up for the week.

Speaker 3 (53:54):
So you have those dice, You have those dice ready
to go?

Speaker 1 (53:57):
I do, indeed, And I'm starting with the seven sided
die correct, Yes, the D seven okay, landed on two?
All right, Chamber of Secrets. We still haven't had a
seventh book, I know. Have we had a first book? Yes,
we did two weeks ago. Ok yeah, the second book.
The maximum page is three twenty or sorry, three forty one.

(54:23):
So I'm gonna run. I'm gonna roll the D four yes, okay,
and a four will represent zero, yes, exactly, all right? Two?
And then now I'm rolling the D ten six nine alright,
So book two, page two hundred and sixty nine. Aoh, okay,

(54:45):
so that's gonna be I'm gonna well, why don't you
predict first? So what did you say? It goes to
three forty three forty one? Yeah, I think it's possible
that Ginny has just her body will lie in the
chamber forever. Oh that that early okay, or I mean
that late. I guess there's quite a bit they have
to get through. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, I'm going to

(55:08):
predict this is Professor Binn's lesson about what the Chamber
of Secrets.

Speaker 3 (55:12):
Is, what that that happened way earlier.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
Yeah, you're right, Okay, Okay, I'm changing my prediction. Okay,
I'm going to predict this is uh, the Harry going
into Tom Riddle's memory. Okay, all right, Yeah, it'll be
interesting to see the pacing. I'm sometimes with the early books.
It is definitely hard because there's just so much more

(55:37):
that happens in a show like how the Man with
Two Faces is the last chapter of the first book,
it's like one hundred pages. Well it's not quite Yeah,
a ton of different scenes in it too, So so yeah,
we'll be seeing But I'm I'm predicting it's something about
right around when Ginny gets pulled into the chamber, Okay,
And then I'm predicting it's Tom Riddle's memory.

Speaker 3 (55:58):
I'm probably too, I'm probably I'm.

Speaker 1 (56:00):
Going I'm probably and I'm probably going too early, but okay,
maybe well we'll say that's the best when we both
are slightly wrong, because then we can both be right
and we'll be like we were right in the middle
of where we guessed exactly which? All right? Really, if
Justin's listening, he's probably saying that doesn't count as us
both being right, that's you both being wrong. But that

(56:20):
is a very pessimistic viewer. Yeah, the glass is half
empty too, huh. Exactly?

Speaker 3 (56:27):
All right, Well, thank you everyone for listening.

Speaker 1 (56:30):

two sixty nine, very exciting times. In the meantime, please

we're entering an amazing season of Patron casts. That's actually
going to be I believe that is going to be

(57:13):
our one hundredth that's true. That is because we definitely
ninety nine was the last one. So yeah, that's right.
So it's pretty crazy. We've done nearly one hundred episodes
at this point, and nearly one hundred. How can it
be nearly a hundred? Exactly? There's going to be once
again seven questions that we will answer. That means we
will be at seven hundred questions that we've answered from

(57:34):
the patrons, no more, no less. Well, definitely not well,
definitely not at eight hundred. Yeah, definitely only at seven hundred.
And I'll be doing the outline, which means it will
actually be just seven hundred because Alice, well, I don't
like to combine questions like Alice does. That's true. I
do sometimes put two questions together and we get we
get it, not even a floor question, we get just

(57:54):
a bonus question in general. Yes, Alice likes to do that.
I don't. All right, Well, like I said, we will
be back next Monday to talk about the next one
page at a time, and until then, we're the real
