[English]

[Hermione] Harry?

I saw my dad.

What?

He sent the Dementors away.

I saw him across the lake.

Listen, Harry, they've captured Sirius.

Any minute, the Dementors are going to

perform the Kiss.

You mean they're gonna kill him?

No, it's worse.

Much worse.

They're going to suck out his soul.

Headmaster, you've got to stop them!

They've got the wrong man!

It's true, sir.

Sirius is innocent!

It's Scabbers who did it.

Scabbers?

He's my rat, sir.

He's not really a rat.

Well, he was a rat.

He was my brother Percy's rat.

But then they gave him an owl and I got —

Point is, we know the truth.

Please believe us.

I do, Miss Granger.

But I'm sorry to say the word of

three 13-year-old wizards

will convince few others.

A child's voice, however honest and true,

is meaningless

to those who've forgotten how to listen.

Mysterious thing, time.

Powerful, and when meddled with,

dangerous.

Sirius Black is in the topmost cell

of the Dark Tower.

You know the laws, Miss Granger.

You must not be seen.

And you would do well, I feel,

to return before this last chime.

If not, the consequences

are too ghastly to discuss.

If you succeed tonight,

more than one innocent life can be spared.

Three turns should do it, I think.

Oh, by the way.

When in doubt,

I find retracing my steps

to be a wise place to begin.

Good luck.

What the bloody hell was that all about?

Sorry, Ron, but seeing as you can't walk.

What just happened?

Where's Ron?

It's seven thirty.

Where were we at seven thirty?

I dunno, going to Hagrids?

Come on. And we can't be seen.

Hermione!

Hermione!

Hermione, wait!

Hermione, will you please tell me

what it is we're doing?

[Draco] Ah, come to see the show?

[Hermione] You...

You foul, loathsome, evil, little cockroach!

That's us.

[Ron] Hermione, no!

He's not worth it.

This is not normal.

This is a Time-Turner, Harry.

McGonagall gave it to me first term.

This is how I've been getting

to my lessons all year.

You mean, we've gone back in time?

Yes.

Dumbledore obviously wanted us to

return to this moment.

Clearly something happened

he wants us to change.

Good punch.

Thanks.

Malfoy's coming.

[Goyle] Run!

[Crabbe] Wait for me!

[Malfoy] Not a word to anyone, understood?

Okay.

I'm gonna get that jumped up Mudblood.

Mark my words.

[Hermione] That felt good.

[Ron] Not good, brilliant.

[Harry] Come on.

We should be at Hagrid's.

Look, Buckbeak's still alive!

Of course.

Remember what Dumbledore said.

If we succeed,

"more than one innocent life could be spared."

Let's go.
