PROFESSOR McGONAGALL
So to be clear – you illegally jumped off the Hogwarts Express, you invaded and stole from the Ministry of Magic, you took it upon yourself to change time, whereupon you disappeared two people—
ALBUS
I agree it doesn’t sound good.
PROFESSOR McGONAGALL
And your response to disappearing Hugo and Rose Granger-Weasley was to go back in time again – and this time – instead of losing two people you lost a huge number of people and
killed your father – and in doing so you resurrected the worst wizard the world has ever known and heralded in a new age of Dark Magic. (Dry.) You’re correct, Mr Potter, it doesn’t sound good does it? Are you aware how stupid you’ve been?
SCORPIUS
Yes, Professor.
ALBUS hesitates a moment. He looks at HARRY.
ALBUS
Yes.

If I could also give a detention to you, Minister, I would. Keeping hold of a Time-Turner, of all the stupid things!
HERMIONE
In my defence—
PROFESSOR McGONAGALL
And in a bookcase. You kept it in a bookcase. It’s almost laughable.
HERMIONE
Minerva. (There is an intake of breath.) Professor McGonagall—
PROFESSOR McGONAGALL
Your children didn’t exist!

PROFESSOR McGONAGALL (to ALBUS and SCORPIUS)
Your intentions to save Cedric were honourable if misguided. And it does sound as if you were brave, Scorpius, and you, Albus, but the lesson even your father sometimes failed to heed is that bravery doesn’t forgive stupidity. Always think. Think what’s possible. A world controlled by Voldemort is—
SCORPIUS
A horrific world.
PROFESSOR McGONAGALL
You are so young. (She looks at HARRY, DRACO, GINNY and HERMIONE.) You’re all so young. You have no idea how dark the wizarding wars got. You were – reckless – with the world some people – some very dear friends of mine and yours – sacrificed a huge amount to create and sustain.
ALBUS
Yes, Professor.
SCORPIUS
Yes, Professor.
