"Hello, Professor McGonagall speaking. I have a few questions you'll have to answer to, my

dear. There's something decisively wrong with your therapy. Severus has been hiding in his

laboratory for three days now. He frankly refuses to come out, let alone talk to anyone. I

demand to know what happened. What have you been talking about?

...

...

...

...

...

...

I - I understand. And you cannot tell me any more than that? Will he be allright again?

...

Well, that's something at least. So you think the therapy has been successful?

...

What do you mean by 'astoundingly yes'? It was my idea after all.

...

...

...

No, he- he might need some time to get over the sudden... realization. I will see what I can

do. Least, I suppose, is keeping students away from the lab.

...

Yes, term's started again. But don't worry. We'll be fine here. You said he'll just need some

time, didn't you?

...

...

I - excuse me, please. I cannot - cannot thank you enough for all you did.

...

Pardon? Yes, of course you have questions. I expect you must be very puzzled to find that a world like ours exists,

don't you? Well, I have an explanation, but you need to listen closely, because this is going to be

quite difficult, given that you're not actually standing in front of me. Give me just a second to

get hold of my... ah, yes. Ready?

...

Obliviate."
