Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone, Through the Trapdoor (16)
We're nearly to the end of our re-read of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (or Philosopher's) Stone. Chapter 16, Through the Trapdoor is a BIG ONE... Harry, Ron and Hermione are put through the magic made for children gauntlet, training to become the heroes of our story!
To do so, they must get through the obstacle course setup by our puppet master, Albus Dumbledore. Their challenge: surviving a 3-headed dog (Fluffy), Devil's Snare, enchanted flying keys, a killer chess set, an already knocked out troll, and a potentially poisonous potions riddle in an attempt to reach the stone before our secret antagonist (spoiler: it's Quirrell or Voldemort.. Quirrelldemort).
I dive into my theory of how this is all a test for Harry and what each of the protective obstacles are meant to evaluate in our heroes in training. I also pick my favorite foreshadow moments, share some responses to Game of Inches (Expecto Plot-Chango) questions from social media (@belatedbinge), and give away some meaningless awards from the chapter - it's not a great one for Prof McG... Please rate & review if you enjoy the show!
