Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Scene 1 Summary

  • It's a hot day in Little Whinging and Harry Potter is hanging out all by himself. It's tough not having any friends in the Muggle world.
  • Eventually, Dudley and his reprobate friends swing by and start making fun of Harry. Apparently, Harry's been having dreams where he gets worked up about a guy named Cedric.
  • Dudley thinks that's pretty hilarious. We guess he hasn't seen the ending to the last movie.
  • Harry finally gets sick of it and pulls his wand out to threaten Dudley. Dudley's gang might think this is a joke, but Dudley's knows Harry's wand is deadly serious.
  • Just then the sky goes dark. Dudley's gang scatters and Harry and his cousin start to race home. It's raining so they find cover in an underpass.
  • They're not safe for long. Two dementors pop out and start trying to suck out their souls. Luckily, Harry's able to fight them off by casting a Patronus Charm.
  • Dudley is pretty shaken by the dementor attack and Harry is trying to help him up when he sees their Muggle neighbor from Privet Drive, Mrs. Figg.
  • Harry starts to put his wand away when the old woman tells him to keep it out just in case there are more of them.
  • Wait, so Mrs. Figg knows about dementors? Curiouser and curiouser.
