Harry: Then you would know about my… about my Nimbus (voice breaks)
[Lupin continues to stare at nothing]
Harry: The Dementors, (s) why do they affect me so? Worse than (s) others? Is it because the Dementors feed off bad memories and I have more than others, since my mother was killed before my eyes?
