  • Harry and Hermione need to save Buckbeak without being seen.
  • But the other thems are inside Hagrid's hut, not leaving.
  • Hermione throws a rock at other Harry's head to draw his attention to the Minister's arrival. Remember that?
  • Past-Harry, Ron and Hermione emerge, and Future-Hermione and Harry hide in the woods.
  • When their past selves leave, Hermione and Harry return to the pumpkin patch. Now is not the time to carve jack-o-lanterns, guys.
  • Harry creeps toward Buckbeak and unchains him.
  • But Buckbeak is as stubborn as a mule. He won't move.
  • Hermione lures him away with dead ferrets that she must keep on hand just for this purpose.
  • The Minister and executioner emerge from Hagrid's hut, shocked to find Buckbeak gone.
  • The executioner, who takes his job very seriously, angrily chops a pumpkin in half.
  • Something is going to die today, even if it is just a gourd.
