Cloaks and schemes and dragons, oh my! It's time for another episode of Podtrificus Totalus, a Harry Potter podcast done chapter by chapter, book by book.
|
|
|
|
Quirrell seems to be resisting Snape's efforts to steal the stone, at least long enough for Harry, Ron, and Hermione to be distracted by a sub-plot: Hagrid has obtained an illegal dragon egg, and Malfoy finds out about it.
