Harry Potter Year One: The Final Confrontation Panel 1  (Setting: Gryffindor Common Room. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are sprawled on armchairs, looking exhausted but content. Sunlight streams through the window.)  CAPTION: Several weeks later... End-of-year exams finally over.  HARRY (thought bubble, looking thoughtful): That dragon egg... It still doesn't make sense.  RON (yawning): Bliss, pure bliss. No more Snape glowering at us.  HERMIONE (reading a book): Don't speak too soon, Ron. There's still the matter of final grades.  Panel 2  (Setting: Hagrid's hut. Harry stands in the doorway, looking concerned. Hagrid is inside, tending to Fang.)  HARRY: Hagrid, can I ask you something about Norbert?  HAGRID (turns, surprised): Norbert? Blimey, haven't thought about him in ages. He's doin' fine, last I heard, in that Romanian dragon sanctuary.  Panel 3  (Setting: A dimly lit, smoky pub. Hagrid is sitting at a table, looking flushed and happy, playing cards with a shadowy figure in a cloak. Empty tankards are scattered on the table.)  SPEECH BALLOON (Cloaked Figure): So, this three-headed dog, you say? Quite fascinating creatures. Require specialized care, I imagine?  SPEECH BALLOON (Hagrid, slurring slightly): Oh, Fluffy's a gentle giant, he is. Just loves a bit o' music, see? Puts him right to sleep.  CAPTION: Hagrid, in a wizarding pub near Hogwarts...  Panel 4  (Setting: Back in Hagrid's hut, Panel 2. Harry's eyes widen in realization.)  HARRY: Music...  Panel 5  (Setting: Hogwarts Corridor. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are walking briskly.)  HARRY: He knew how to get past Fluffy! The cloaked stranger! That means one of the enchantments is useless! We have to tell Professor Dumbledore!  RON: Blimey, Harry, you're right!  HERMIONE: But who was that stranger?  Panel 6  (Setting: Professor Dumbledore's office. An owl is perched on his desk, holding a sealed letter. Dumbledore looks concerned.)  CAPTION: Moments later...  DUMBLEDORE: I'm afraid I must leave immediately, my boy. Urgent matters at the Ministry.  HARRY (thinking, suspicious): Ministry business? Now?  Panel 7  (Setting: Hogwarts Corridor. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are walking quickly in the opposite direction from Dumbledore's office.)  HARRY: It's a trick! Snape sent that message! He's going after the stone tonight!  RON: Snape? But why?  HERMIONE: He hates us! And he was acting really suspicious during the Quidditch match.  Panel 8  (Setting: Corridor outside the third-floor forbidden corridor. Neville stands in front of them, arms outstretched.)  NEVILLE: You can't go in there! You'll lose even more points for Gryffindor! I won't let you!  Panel 9  (Setting: Same corridor. Hermione points her wand at Neville. A streak of light hits him. Neville is frozen in a stiff pose.)  HERMIONE (determined): Petrificus Totalus! Sorry, Neville.  RON (slightly nervous): Bit harsh, Hermione, but necessary.  Panel 10  (Setting: Inside the chamber with Fluffy. Harry is playing the flute Hagrid gave him. Fluffy's three heads are drooping, eyes closing.)  SOUND EFFECT: Lullaby music  HARRY (relieved): It worked!  RON: Bloody hell, that was easy.  HERMIONE: Don't get complacent. There are still other defenses.  Panel 11  (Setting: A dark, spiraling tunnel. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are sliding down.)  CAPTION: They jumped through the trapdoor...  Panel 12  (Setting: A large chamber with a giant chessboard. Ron is standing on one of the squares, concentrating intensely. A defeated chess piece lies on the floor.)  RON: ...Knight to H3. Checkmate.  Panel 13  (Setting: Same chamber. Ron is lying on the floor, unconscious. Harry and Hermione kneel beside him, worried.)  HERMIONE: Ron!  HARRY: He sacrificed himself. He knew he had to.  Panel 14  (Setting: The final chamber. Harry stands alone, facing Professor Quirrell. Quirrell is smiling wickedly. Magical ropes bind Harry's wrists.)  QUIRRELL: Well, well, Harry Potter. We meet again.  Panel 15  (Setting: Close-up on Quirrell's face, still smiling wickedly.)  QUIRRELL: It was me who let the troll in, you know. Wanted to get a good look at you. And during that Quidditch match... well, that was me too. Snape was trying to save you, the fool. He suspected me all along.  Panel 16  (Setting: Wider shot of the chamber. Harry is looking shocked. A ghostly face is visible on the back of Quirrell's head.)  QUIRRELL (voice distorted, double meaning): You see, Harry, I have a master. Lord Voldemort. He needs the Stone. We tried at Gringotts, but failed. So... he joined me.  Panel 17  (Setting: Close-up on the Mirror of Erised. Quirrell is looking into it, frustrated.)  QUIRRELL: Show me the Stone!  CAPTION: The Mirror of Death.  Panel 18  (Setting: Harry is standing in front of the mirror, looking determined. Quirrell is behind him, his hands on Harry's shoulders.)  HARRY (thinking): I just want to find it... not use it.  SOUND EFFECT: Thunk  HARRY (thought bubble): It's in my pocket!  Panel 19  (Setting: Harry tries to push Quirrell away. Quirrell's turban begins to fall off.)  HARRY: No!  Panel 20  (Setting: Close-up on the back of Quirrell's head. Voldemort's pale, snakelike face is clearly visible.)  VOLDEMORT (from Quirrell's head): Get the Stone, you fool!  HARRY (shocked): Voldemort!  Panel 21  (Setting: Harry clutches the Stone in his pocket. Quirrell reaches for him. His hand begins to smoke and burn.)  SOUND EFFECT: Sizzle!  QUIRRELL (screaming): Aaaaargh!  Panel 22  (Setting: Harry lies unconscious on the floor. Quirrell lies nearby, his body smoking.)  CAPTION: Harry lost consciousness...  Panel 23  (Setting: Hogwarts Infirmary. Harry is in bed, looking up at Professor Dumbledore, who is sitting beside him.)  DUMBLEDORE: Your mother's sacrifice, Harry. A powerful protection. Voldemort cannot touch you. He doesn't understand love's magic.  Panel 24  (Setting: Same scene. Dumbledore is holding up the Philosopher's Stone, which is cracking and crumbling.)  DUMBLEDORE: And because you sought the Stone but not to use it, it was yours. Flamel and I have decided it is best to destroy it.  Panel 25  (Setting: Hogwarts Infirmary. Ron and Hermione are sitting on chairs next to Harry's bed, looking relieved and happy.)  RON: You gave us a right scare, mate.  HERMIONE: We weren't going anywhere without you.  Panel 26  (Setting: Hogwarts Infirmary. Hagrid is standing awkwardly by Harry's bedside, holding a photo album.)  HAGRID: Harry... I'm so sorry. That stranger... I didn't know. Found this for ya, though.  Panel 27  (Setting: Close-up on the photo album. A picture of Lily and James Potter, smiling and waving, is visible.)  HARRY (eyes wide with emotion): My parents...  Panel 28  (Setting: The Great Hall. The Gryffindor table is cheering wildly. The House Cup is on their table. Dumbledore is standing at the staff table, smiling.)  CAPTION: News spread quickly. Harry was a hero. And Gryffindor… won the House Cup!  Panel 29  (Setting: The Hogwarts Express. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are looking out the window as the train pulls away from Hogwarts.)  HARRY: Back to the Dursleys, then.  Panel 30  (Setting: Harry is lying in bed at the Dursleys' house, a mischievous grin on his face.)  HARRY (thought bubble): They don't know I'm not allowed to do magic outside of school... This summer's going to be interesting.  RON (from the train window, waving): See you next year, Harry!  HERMIONE (from the train window, waving): Write to us!
