Mr. Filch, you dropped this.

Morning, everyone.

Good morning, everyone. Good morning, Professor Sprout.

Welcome to Greenhouse Three, second years. Gather around, everyone.

Today were going to re-pot Mandrakes.

Who here can tell me the properties of the Mandrake root?

Yes, Miss Granger?

Mandrake, or Mandragora…

…is used to return those who have been Petrified to their original state.

Its also dangerous. The Mandrakes cry is fatal to anyone who hears it.

Excellent, Ten points to Gryffindor.

As our Mandrakes are still only seedlings…

…their cries wont kill you yet.

But they could knock you out for hours, which is why I have given you earmuffs…

…for auditory protection.

So could you please put them on, right away? Quickly.

Flaps tight down, and watch me closely.

You grasp your Mandrake firmly.

You pull it sharply up out of the pot.

Got it? And…

…now you dunk it down into the other pot…

…and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep him warm.

Longbottom’s been neglecting his earmuffs.

No, maam, hes just fainted. Yes, well, just leave him there.

Right, on we go. Plenty of pots to go around.

Grasp your Mandrake and pull it up.

There’s Nearly Headless Nick. Hello, Percy, Miss Clearwater.

Hello, Sir Nicholas.

Say it. I’m doomed.

You’re doomed. Hi, Harry.

I’m Colin Creevey. I’m in Gryffindor too.

Hi, Colin, Nice to meet you.

Say, do you think your friend here could take a photo of me and you standing together? To prove I’ve met you.

Its for my dad, Hes a milkman, you know.

A Muggle, like all our family’s been until me.

No one knew the stuff I could do was magic till we got letters from Hogwarts.

Everyone just thought I was mental, Imagine that.

Ron, is that your owl?

Bloody birds a menace.

Oh, no.

Look, everyone, Weasleys got himself a Howler.

Go on, Ron. I ignored one from my gran once, It was horrible.

Ronald Weasley!

How dare you steal that car, I am absolutely disgusted!

Your fathers now facing an inquiry at work…

…and its entirely your fault!

If you put another toe out of line…

…well bring you straight home!

And, Ginny, dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor.

Your father and I are so proud.

Let me introduce you to your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

Me.

Gilderoy Lockhart…

…Order of Merlin, Third Class…

…honorary member of the Dark Force Defense League…

…and five times winner…

…of Witch Weeklys Most-Charming-Smile Award.

But I don’t talk about that.

I didn’t get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at him.

I see you’ve bought a complete set of my books. Well done.

Now, I thought wed start today with a little quiz.

Nothing to worry about.

Just to check how well you’ve read them.

Thank you.

How much you’ve taken in.

Look at these questions, They’re all about him.

What is Gilderoy Lockharts favorite color?

What is Gilderoy Lockharts greatest achievement to date?

You have 30 minutes. Start…

…now!

Tut-tut.

Hardly any of you remembered that my favorite color is lilac.

But Miss Hermione Granger…

…knew that my secret ambition is to rid the world of evil…

…and market my own range of hair-care potions. Good girl.

Now, be warned.

It is my job to arm you…

…against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind.

You may find yourselves facing your worst fears in this room.

Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here.

I must ask you not to scream.

It might provoke them.

Cornish pixies?

Freshly caught Cornish pixies.

Laugh if you will, Mr. Finnegan…

…but pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters.

Lets see what you make of them.

Come on now, round them up, They’re only pixies.

You just stay there! Please, get me down!

Get off me! Stop. Hold still!

Peskipiksi Pesternomi!
