Scene 8
DD: (watching Herm in hospital wing) I still can't figure it out, Poppy!
MP: It's a mystery… (watching Neville eat orange)
McG: It's like when the Chamber of Secrets was open…only less serious.
DD: I completely agree! (watches Herm eat a banana-with the skin still on it!)
MP: I think we should put the children to bed and conduct magical experiments on them while they're sleeping.
DD: Good idea.
McG: But how in the world will we get them to sleep?
(all enter the hospital wing)
MP: Now, children, it's time to go to bed…Herm: NO BED! NO BED! (throws clock at MP)
MP: OUCH!
McG: Hermione, please calm down…
Herm: No calm down! (dances on bed) TRA LA LA LA!
McG: GIRL, SIT YOUR BOTTOM DOWN! (pushes Herm down on bed and tucks her in) Now good night!
Herm: Night never come! Me party all night! WEEEOOOO! (gets up and congas with no one)
McG: (turns to DD) Dumbly Dore, what ever are we to do?
DD: I'm thinking, I'm thinking…wait a minute! No…wait a minute! No…wait a minute! I've got it! (stands up) No…(sits down)
Part 2 of Scene 8DD actually thinks of something!
(several hours later)
DD: Hmm…hmmm…no…hmm…McG and MP: (asleep, snoring)
Herm and Neville: (whipping around their bedsheets, not the least bit tired) WEEEEEEEEEEEE!
DD: (stands up) I'VE GOT IT!McG: Huh, what? (wakes up)
MP: You (yawns) have an idea?
DD: (pauses) No…
McG and MP: (sigh)
(several hours later)
DD: Hmm…hmmm…no…hmm…McG and MP: (asleep, snoring)
Herm and Neville: (jumping from one bed to the next, and jumping on innocent people, not the least bit tired) WEEEEEEEEEEEE!
DD: (stands up) I'VE GOT IT!McG: (wakes up) Yeah, right.
MP: Sure.
DD: No, really! I'm sure this time!
MP: Well, what is it?
DD: Their digestive systems! Get them to sleep! NOW!
MP: If I can get them to hold still long enough, I could give them a sleeping potion…
DD: How about Nyquil?
MP: What?
DD: It's a medicine Muggles use to get to sleep!
MP: I think I'll stick with the sleeping potion, thanks…
(after the struggle)
MP: (sighs) Whew! They're finally asleep!Herm: (mumbling in sleep) Whiffle-waffle…
DD: Now, check their digestive system.
MP: Why?
DD: Just do it!
MP: OK. (checks their digestive systems and tells DD the results)
Well, Albs, Neville has the crazy pills in his stomach covered with some sort of reddish stuff, and Hemi has oranges and orange juice with the crazy pill in her tummy and it's covered in pink goop.
DD: I knew it!
McG: And this is important because…?
DD: Well, McGee, I have a theory.
McG: What is this theory?
DD: It's that their bodies, for some reason, had a chemical reaction with the crazy pills and it's making them too hyper for too long.
McG: Oh.
MP: But why just them? Why hasn't this happened to anyone else?
DD: We can only guess…we may never know.
McG: Why does that sound so familiar?
MP: But Alb, how are we going to cure them?
DD: Um…
McG: Oh, lord here we go again!
Part 3 of Scene 8Finding the Cure
(several hours later)
DD: Hmm…hmmm…no…hmm…McG and MP: (asleep, snoring)
(Neville and Herm are still asleep)
Neville: Nimble…wimble…Herm: Smoky the Bear…stop forest fires…live in the now…
DD: (stands up) I'VE GOT IT!
MP: Ok, let's hear it!
McG: Yeah.
DD: No…still not accurate…
McG and MP: (groan)
DD: Ha, ha just kidding. I think we need some Yogic…stat!
MP: What the heck is Yogic?
DD: (gasps) POPPY! I thought you were a nurse! How could you not know about Yogic?
MP: May I repeat, what the heck is Yogic?
DD: I saw some over there near the fifth bed to the right and that's where I got the idea!
MP: (looks around) I don't see anything labeled 'Yogic'.
DD: RIGHT OVER THERE! (points to the fifth bed to the right, where a lightning bolt shaped bottle is sitting on the bed, labeled YOGIC)
MP: What does Yogic do?
DD: It heals the stomach and gets rid of any uncalled for chemicals that don't need to be there!
McG: Hey, who invented Yogic anyways?
DD: Tom Riddle did. You know, before he became evil and turned into a psycho villain trying to take over the world.
McG: Ah.
DD: Well, we need them to drink a tablespoon each.
MP: No problem! (pours a tablespoon of Yogic in Neville's mouth, then Herm) Done!
McG: Er, DD, how long will it take for them to be cured?
DD: About four hours, I'd say.
McG: Oh. (sighs)
(four hours later, Herm and Neville wake up)
Herm: I guess I'll go now. See you! (leaves)
Neville: Hey, where am I? What am I doing here? Who am I?
DD: Oh no! I forgot the side effect it has on boys!
MP: What's that?
DD: Temporary memory loss!
McG and MP: DUMBLEDORE!!!!!!
