Scene Four
( At a wizard train station in London. Draco Malfoy is getting ready to board the train to travel to Ginny McAfee's hometown [a/n: if anyone knows exactly where Ginny's hometown is, could they please review and tell me? Thanks!] A group of girls and a group of guys are singing back and forth.)
GIRLS: We love you Draco, oh yes we do
We love you Draco and we'll be true
When you're not near us we're blue!
Oh, Draco we love you!
GUYS: We hate you Draco, oh yes we do
We hate you Draco, we really do
You're singing makes us say, P-U!
Oh Draco
GIRLS: Oh Draco
ALL: Oh Draco we hate/love you!
(Just then Ron comes on and the guys go running off.)
RON: All right now girls, sing all together now.
(He begins to conduct as they sing)
GIRLS: We love you Draco, oh yes we do
We love you Draco and we'll be true
When you're not near us we're blue.
(Ron cuts them off as he notices a girl sitting alone on a bench. This girl is Cho Chang. [A/N: Just pretend Ron never knew Cho, okay? I'm trying to get as many HP characters as I can into this story. Oh, and I'd say Cho is sixteen])
RON: Why, young lady, you can come sing with us if you'd like.
(When she doesn't answer, he turns back to the girls.)
Why, what's wrong with her?
ELOISE MIDGEN: She's just sad because Draco is going into the army, and she'll be too old for time when she gets out.
RON: Why, I'm sure she still has a few good years left in her. Why don't you girls go run along now? The train should be leaving soon.
(The girls leave, and he turns to Cho)
RON: Now, why don't you just smile for me. (getting no reaction from her) Young lady, this is an adult speaking. I order you to smile. Please?
(song)
Gray skies are gonna clear up
Put on a happy face!
Wipe off the frown and cheer up
Put on a happy face.
Take off the gloomy mask of tragedy
It's not your style
You'll look so good that you'll be glad you decided to smile!
Pick out a pleasant outlook
Lift up that noble chin.
Wipe off the full of doubt look
Slap on a happy grin
And spread sunshine all over the place
Just put on a happy face!
Put on a happy face
Put on a happy face
And if you're feeling cross and bickerish
Don't sit and whine
Think of banana splits and licorice and you'll feel fine!
I knew a girl so gloomy
She'd never laugh or sing
She wouldn't listen to me
Now she's a mean old thing!
So spread sunshine all over the place
And put on a happy face!
(Finally, Cho begins to smile. There is a whole dance break that follows between Cho and Ron.)
RON: Well, you'd better hurry up. You don't want to miss Malfoy before he leaves!
CHO: Thanks, Mr. Weasley!
(Cho exits. Hermione enters, holding all their luggage so you cannot see her face. Ron doesn't realize it's her.)
RON: Oh, thank you for the luggage, sir. Just put it down somewhere.
(Hermione drops the luggage, so Ron can see it's her)
RON: Hermione!
HERMIONE: Yes, Ron.
RON: What were you doing?
HERMIONE: I was carrying our luggage. Without any help from you, Ron.
(She goes and sits on a nearby bench. Just then Mrs. Weasley enters.)
MRS. WEASLEY: Sonny, Sonny boy, how are you?
(Suddenly she starts to feel a little faint, but shows it very dramatically.)
RON: Mama, what's the matter?
MRS. WEASLEY: Oh, nothing, Sonny boy. Just a little faint from riding in the subway.
RON: Mama, I told you to take a taxi!
MRS. WEASLEY: Taxi Smaxi! I'll leave the taxis to my successful son. Here's the money I saved by taking the subway. Buy yourself some chocolate frogs or something. (She turns and sees Hermione.) And who is this?
RON: Mama, you remember Mione! Hermione Granger, my secretary?
MRS. WEASLEY: This is Hermione Granger? Pretty little Hermione Granger? Hermione, what happened? You had a sudden shock or something, right?
HERMIONE: I think I'll be going now, Ron. Good-bye, Molly.
MRS. WEASLEY: Call me Mrs. Weasley.
(Hermione exits)
RON: Mama, I have to tell you something. It's about Hermione. And about the company, Ronmoler. [A/N: Get it? Instead of Almaelou, it's Ronmoler. Ron for Ron, Mol for Molly, and Er for their old owl, Errol.
MRS. WEASLEY: All right. I know my Sonny won't say anything to break his Mama's heart.
RON: Actually, it's about Errol, too.
MRS. WEASLEY: Errol! I miss you. Run over by a muggle beverage truck that I consumed faithfully for 32 years. What about Errol?
RON: Well, Hermione thought, and I agree, that it might be best to... dissolve Ronmoler.
(Mrs. Weasley comes close the fainting again.)
RON: Mama! What's wrong?
MRS. WEASLEY: Oh, nothing. You only killed me, that's all!
RON: Oh, Mama, no! I'm promise I won't do anything final.
MRS. WEASLEY: I suppose I'd better be heading home now. I'll take the subway. The worst one I can find. Or, better yet, I'll walk. It's not that far, only 117 blocks. Goodbye, Sonny boy. Don't forget to wear your rubbers. And eat a warm lunch everyday. And change your socks!
(Mrs. Weasley exits. Hermione enters)
HERMIONE: Did you tell her about dissolving Ronmoler?
RON: I tried.
HERMIONE: And how did it go?
RON: Well, I... I don't really think it went too well.
HERMIONE: You have to be more forceful. Why, if you....
(She is interrupted by Sirius Black running onstage.)
SIRIUS: He's leaving! Draco Malfoy's leaving on that train!
RON: Come on, Mione, let's go!
(He grabs her by the hand, and the two run off, followed by Sirius.) ************************************************************************
A/N: If anyone wants me to email them when the next chapter is up, I'd be more than happy to. Just ask me to in your review.
Also, I just wanted to let you all know that I am writing this without a script. Since I only have four lines in the show, they didn't give me a script. So I've just been writing this from what I remember of about six weeks of rehearsals. I hope it's close enough!
