Potter Revisited Episode #45 Teatime With Lupin AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 8 "The Flight of the Fat Lady"

• Everyone loves Lupin and DADA and we do too! Lupin seems like a great teacher
• Of Course the only ones that don't like Lupin are Malfoy & Co - is it only because he is obviously poor? 
• Snape, meanwhile is still taking out his feelings about Lupin on the students, especially Neville - +1 Snape Sucks 
• Shay thinks she would be like Parvarti and Lavender and visiting Trelawney at Lunch
• Harry really doesn't like Divination this early on - why doesn't he drop it and take something else?
• Oliver gives a Rudy-style pep talk to the team - it's his last chance to win the Quidditch cup before he graduates
• Ron mentions Scabbers is in his bag, and then Crookshanks attacks - the whole chance scene is very amusing to picture 
• Is Ron more mad at Hermione because of Crookshanks or that she won't take him seriously? 
• Is Hermione a good pet owner? Why isn't she controlling Crookshanks more? 
• The Trio see Lavender crying before class - she just got news her bunny died. She believes the prediction Trelawney made is real since it's the 16th of October
• Hermione tries to disprove the prediction could be real with logic, ignoring the fact that Lavender's pet is dead - why does Hermione always do this?
• Shay points out this could be the beginning of Lavender's crush on Ron, as he tells off Hermione in front of her. Tori, a Ron/Hermione shipper, isn't sure 
• Ron convinces Harry to ask McGonagall for permission to go to Hogsmede - and she obviously says no since it's against the rules 
• Dean had offered to forge Vernon's signature - why didn't Harry do this before going to McGonagall?
• Tori tells a story about the time she forged her Mom's signature in Grade 4 to avoid missing recess 
• Shay wonders if they keep the parents signature on file and would be able to detect a forgery by magic 
• Harry is missing out on Hogsmede and we feel bad - Percy does a terrible job at trying to cheer him up
• Lupin sees Harry walking around alone & invites him in for tea - we would love to have tea with Lupin!
• Harry figures out why Lupin stopped him from confronting the Dementor - he thought it would be Voldemort
• Snape comes to bring Lupin a potion - we discuss him seeing Lupin and Harry together in the office and imagining Lupin and James 
• Shay discusses the way Lupin speaks about Snape to Harry, which is very complimentary.
• Harry trying to convince Lupin that Snape is bad and likely poisoned the potion is funny, considering Lupin and Snape grew up together at school 
• How Ron and Hermione describe Hogsmede to Harry very much shows their interest - The first thing Hermione brings up is the post office and how it is organized by a colour coded system, and Ron brings up Honeydukes and all the sweets
• This is our first time fully seeing a Hogwarts Halloween feast as events have always prevented it - The Ghosts provide entertainment with Synchronized gliding and Nick reenacts his death - were Ghosts always the entertainment or is this new? 
• We discuss the twist ending - The Fat Lady has fled her frame, which has been slashed up. Sirius Black tried to break into Gryffindor tower
• How did Dumbledore appear on the scene so fast? 
• Shay wonders why Lupin didn't do anything - didn't say anything to Dumbledore regarding Sirius 
• It's interesting how Peeves speaks to Dumbledore compared to other professors 
• Snape Sucks total for Chapter 8: 1
