Harry Potter and the Cursed ChildAct 2 - Scene 16 SCORPIUS
Professor Croaker’s law – the furthest someone can go back in time without the possibility of serious harm to the traveller or time itself is five hours. And we went back years. The smallest moment, the smallest change, it creates ripples. And we – we’ve created really bad ripples. Rose was never born because of what we did. Rose.

ALBUS
Who’s saying that we’ll get it wrong?
SCORPIUS
I say. Because that’s what we do. We mess things up. We lose. We’re losers, true and total losers. Haven’t you realised that yet?
ALBUS finally gets the upper hand and pins SCORPIUS to the ground.
ALBUS
Well, I wasn’t a loser before I met you.
SCORPIUS
Albus, whatever you’ve got to prove to your dad – this isn’t the way—

SCORPIUS
Oh poor Albus Potter. With his chip on his shoulder. Poor Albus Potter. So sad.
ALBUS
What are you saying?
SCORPIUS (exploding)
Try my life! People look at you because your dad’s the famous Harry Potter, saviour of the wizarding world. People look at me because they think my dad is Voldemort. Voldemort.

Can you even slightly imagine what that’s like? Have you even ever tried? No. Because you can’t see beyond the end of your nose. Because you can’t see beyond the end of your stupid thing with your dad. He will always be Harry Potter, you know that right? And you will always be his son. And I know it’s hard, and the other kids are awful but you have to learn to be okay with that, because – there are worse things, okay?

SCORPIUS
I’m still the child of Voldemort, without a mother, giving sympathy to the boy who doesn’t ever give anything back. So I’m sorry if I’ve ruined your life because I tell you – you wouldn’t have a chance of ruining mine – it was already ruined. You just didn’t make it better. Because you’re a terrible – the most terrible – friend.

SCORPIUS
Your dad thinks the rumours are true – I am the son of Voldemort?
ALBUS (nods)
His department are currently investigating it.
SCORPIUS
Good. Let them. Sometimes – sometimes I find myself thinking – maybe they’re true too.
ALBUS
No. They’re not true. And I’ll tell you why. Because I don’t think Voldemort is capable of having a kind son – and you’re kind, Scorpius. To the depths of your belly, to the tips of your fingers. I truly believe Voldemort – Voldemort couldn’t have a child like you.

ALBUS
And it’s something I should have said a long time ago. In fact, you’re probably the best person I know. And you don’t – you couldn’t – hold me back – you make me stronger – and when Dad forced us apart – without you—
SCORPIUS
I didn’t much like my life without you in it either.

ALBUS
And I know I’ll always be Harry Potter’s son – and I will sort that out in my head – and I know compared to you my life is pretty good really and that he and I are comparatively lucky and—
SCORPIUS (interrupting)
Albus, as apologies go this is wonderfully fulsome, but you’re starting to talk more about you than me again, so probably better to quit while you’re ahead.

ALBUS
Friends?
SCORPIUS
Always.
SCORPIUS extends his hand, ALBUS pulls SCORPIUS up into a hug.
That’s the second time you’ve done that. The two boys break apart and smile.
