Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Scene 17 Summary

  • Harry has a dream about the black hallway again. But this time it's a little different.
  • He sees the snake slithering down and attacking Mr. Weasley in a huge room.
  • Harry tells Professor McGonagall what he saw and she brings him to Dumbledore…and when they find Mr. Weasley, he's actually been attacked by a snake. He's going to okay, but still: it's weird.
  • Dumbledore has been ignoring Harry this whole time and Harry is pretty ticked. Dumbledore sends for Professor Snape. It's time to teach this kid Occlumency.
  • Basically, Harry and Voldemort share a connection in their minds. If Voldemort finds out about that, he'll exploit the link.
  • Snape is going to try to teach Harry to block Voldemort from reaching into his mind. Snape doesn't give a lot of instruction, so good luck to Harry.
