Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 21: Hermione's Secret
7-Word Summary: Hermione saves Buckbeak with a time turner
Somebody Call the WAMBULANCE for Snape!
We unleash our new "Severus Lie Count" right in the nick of time!
Is Snape pointing out the uneven leniency given to Harry helpful or harmful to his cause? He sure knows how to play Fudge.
Could Snape actually secretly believe Harry and Hermione's side of events?
Once Hermione busts out the Time-Turner to save the day we must ask: is traveling in time morally correct?
What alternatives must there have been to giving Hermione a Time-Turner at age 13?
What gives Dumbledore the authority to play God in this situation?
What If: The Time-turning sequence all went wrong?
We review why Time Turners may have been more hassle for the author than a help, and ask if it was worth it.
Quizzitch: At the end of term, who arrives to see Lupin after Harry does?
Next week: Chapter 22: Owl Post Again, the FINAL CHAPTER of POA! And two weeks from now, we'll record a Goblet of Fire movie commentary track!

0:00.0	Today on MuggleCast, we're busting out our time turners to analyze chapter 21 of
0:04.3	Prisoner of Azkaban. But first, this week's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

0:18.7	Maybe during your workday or time with friends, you're finding yourself distracted by something
0:22.4	that's been bugging you. Maybe something's been going on in your life that's living right
