Summary
- Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 20: The Dementor's Kiss
- 7-Word Summary: Chaos ensues on Hogwarts grounds under moonlight
- WHAT IF... Peter hadn’t escaped and Sirius’ innocence had been proven? Would Dumbledore have been forced to explain Harry’s blood protection sooner? Would the Ministry have allowed Harry to live with Sirius?
- Do we think Sirius is mature enough or in the right state of mind to care for Harry?
- Does it cross Lupin's mind at all that if the moon comes out, they’re screwed?
- Why is Pettigrew not completely immobilized?
- We rate Lupin's transformation: did the book vs. the movie do it better?
- Lupin can be controlled by his Animagus friends, but Sirius doesn’t have much luck - is he out of practice?
- Soooo, Harry and Hermione are totally cool leaving Ron and Snape helpless with a werewolf running around while they go tend to Sirius?
- Why doesn't Harry's thought of living with Sirius work on the Dementors?
- Connecting The Threads: Harry attempts to save Sirius in both Prisoner of Azkaban and Order of the Phoenix
- Quizzitch: How old was Sirius Black when he played the trick on Snape with Lupin?
- Next week: We're off, but we'll be releasing our live show from LeakyCon in Chicago!
- Don't forget! Year 2 of the MuggleCast Collectors Club is here! Each year between now and 2026, we’re sending 4-5 exclusive, new stickers that celebrate the show’s past and present. We’re also giving you the Collector’s Club Card, on which you can place the stickers. It’s a beautiful backing card showing our MuggleCast listeners heading to Hogwarts. Pledge at the $5 or $10 level by September 22 to receive this year’s stickers and the Club Card at Patreon.com/MuggleCast!
