Welcome back to the Potter discussion. This is episode 99 in today's episode, we will be discussing what might happen if there were a Harry Potter eight, let's do that. What is up people? I definitely Magna not going better in my head. Oh, welcome back. This is episode 99. Woof. We are getting closer and closer every single second to episode 100 and it is a good one.

So stay tuned for that. But today we have a very exciting episode for you. This one was a, the episode I was planning to do last week, but because of the exciting announcement. Fantastic beasts and the secrets of Dumbledore, uh, this episode was supposed to be last week. And that last episode, last week's episode wasn't even supposed to happen at all.

But I'm so glad I did, but this week is the episode that was supposed to. Last week. And today we are exploring the notion of a Harry Potter and the movie night of book eight of continuing the story. And I know you might be saying, well, Oscar, if they already, , did 19 years later and they don't have a Hershey child, like I know, I know, but that's not.

That's glossing over a lot of things. For example, definitely hollows, , it cuts off the last movie they're standing on. The bridge goes to black. If they fade back in what happens, , that, that's kind of what I'm saying. We do know what happens in the long run, but in the short term, how did the just there's the trio and hug wars?

How does everyone. Fit back in to life.  That is kind of all we're going to be talking about today. And before we get started, I will remind you that the two links in the show notes below are still available. The SpeakPipe page link and the Google form link.

My email is the pod discussion at g-mail dot com. That is the pod discussion@gmail.com. For anything you would ever want me to know.  All right, let's get into the episode     The first thing I mentioned this in this episode so far is the deathly Hallows part two cuts. , it fades out and then it fades back in same point in time.

What happens? Well, I don't think we can give a definitive answer here because there are, so of course there are an infinite amount of things that can happen, but I do think we can guess where the story might go.   Let's start with, with Ron, for example.  The screen cuts. What does Ron do? Well, I don't think he, his first thought will be.

Hogwarts and fixing the bridge and the castle and making sure that everything's in order. I think his first thought will be his family. Ron's family is going to be his first thought.  He's going to rush in and measure everyone's okay. And yes, he did see them before, but the very end of the battle he has to regroup.

They're probably going to go home and celebrate, , Each other really.  Ron is definitely going to spend as much time with his family as he can. Uh, Ron's family is one of the biggest strengths he has.  He's definitely going to use his love to make sure that everyone is going to be okay, , with the death of Fred and make sure that everyone will be emotionally okay.

Forever. Really? Because the first few moments, you're a few days, you now. Of Red's death are crucial. And Ron knows that if he can make sure his family is okay during that time, he will definitely have felt like he did his job. Right. And I agree. I think that's a very important thing for Ron to do.

And it is a very correct thing for Ron to do, uh, him choosing his family over the castle, I think was a big power move and a very, very good decision on his part because his family, as I said before, is one of the biggest, biggest strengths he has. And in that moment, The Beasley's have to lean on each other.

 If Ron isn't there, he, I don't think there was a family that would have really been able to move on because Ron has been through a lot and he would know how to help his family through the trauma they were going through.  Ron would definitely take his family home. They would sit down, they would have a cup of tea, like is like Molly taught him and they would try to work through the trauma that they had all been through.

And then for her Miami, I think. Her first thought would have definitely been the castle and the bridge and the grounds, making sure everything is working. Okay.  She would have probably gone to Hagrid and maybe professional McGonigal, and then she would have all three of them would have just done a big sweep of the grounds.

Hagrid would have, , uh, gone into the forbidden forest and asked the centaurs all the wild beasts that they would have had a. Got a good heart to heart. , a classic Haggard are too hard and then McGonigal would likely go into the castle, making sure all the portraits are okay, making sure the castle isn't really damaged.

And then they would probably start repairing her money. We definitely go on the bridge, making sure that the people are. And you kind of, , fixing everything and then they would just do a, uh, , huge repairs or as remind he said, Oculus repair row, , that kind of thing. They would definitely focus on the castle part of it.

And then for Harry, I think he would do a little of both, not his, not with his family, of course. Cause he didn't his real family isn't alive. But at this point through everything that they've been through. I think Harry sees his family as Hogwarts as the students, as the teachers, as his friends. And I really, he sees those people and places as his family.

 He would try to do a bunch of everything. He would let Ron be for the time being just to the weekly. , just time with themselves, but he, Harry would probably go with her meiny in the beginning and hangry on McGonigal, making sure the grounds are okay. He would probably check Haggard's cabin and like the womping Willow things that he has personal connections.

And then he would go back into the great hall and check up with the people and he would go to his friends first and then he would just kind of walk through and making sure everyone is okay, which is a very, very, very everything to do. Uh, so we, there are no surprises there helping everyone first. And then he would probably go with McGonigal after that, uh, going into castle and then he would probably stop in Dumble doors office.

We know he did. To get the elder, want to repair his own wand, but we do. We'd like after that, I don't really feel like that's a good ending to Dumbledore, , in the Harry Potter series, Dumbledore is really portrayed as , the old wise man. And then the last thing we have, the last scene that is related to dental door we have is of Harry just using his wan to repair zone.

 That's not, that's just not a solid. think that that is a good way to just cut off the series and do everything like that. So it's highly important. It's definitely good for Harry to go back in to download those office and then McGonigle will do her, like, I'll give you a moment alone, , kind of thing.

Like he always does. And yeah, I think that's what the trio would do right in the beginning, but let's move on because the beginning is not the end.   In this next segment, we're going to talk about how the trail would deal with all of the death and how would they cope with all of the people they had lost?

Well, I think again, and we should start with Ron because he's probably the easiest to predict.  I believe that if Ron, , he goes with his family, he takes them home and they just sit around a table, , outside in the garden and they just talk and they drink their special sadness tea. I shouldn't be laughing, but sadness, tea.

Okay. I'm done that. There's so drinking their sadness tea and talking about Fred and just thinking about who they lost. And I don't think the Weasley is, would have been as, , tearful, crying as they had been, because the initial shock of losing Fred, I think it was much worse. Then the reality, if that sounds like any semblance of sense, when you first lose someone it's so much more prevalent, , in your everyday goings on you interact with that person, if they are close to you and when you don't, it just feels like as a gaping hole, Just in you, , there's, there's no where for you to interact with that person anymore, they're just gone and it takes a while for it to sink in that that person that you lost, you will probably never see again, unless you have the resurrection of stone, but that might not even work because they don't belong in living world and more, but they will like you and likely, never see that person again, which is a horror.

And the initial shock of knowing that and not interacting with them and not seeing them is definitely much worse than having actually working through it and letting it sink in because after you get used to that, I have to get used to them not being in your lives, working through that pain and thinking through how you can move on is much more effective and better for your mental health, because you do.

There's not as much pain in that area, if you aren't still in that shock, if that makes any sense. I think the Weasley is, are much better suited to cope with things, , later after they've happened, after the initial shock is gone, because they have each other to, , they can lean on each other and they're all a lot of them to lean off of.

 It's definitely good for them. It's a big plus. They have each other to. interact with and just kind of be around, , be around family and think about who they have lost. So that's kind of, I think the, the, the wrong way of doing it. And that's the Weasley way of doing it then for her money?

I don't think her mind, he lost any one of her, , real close friend. Like the trio nation went like that. She had, she didn't lose anything like that, but her meiny is a really sensitive person. Of course, Ron only has the emotional range of a teaspoon, but I'm sure Miami has, has all of the colors of the rainbow emotional side.

Her mind, he would definitely be feeling a lot of empathy for all the people who didn't make it out. And for the people who are friends and related to our close to those people.  I think her meiny would definitely be kind of walking around and comforting everyone who was related in some way. To the people who were lost and she will most likely be, just thinking about, , kind of accepting.

She has to move on and she has to find a way to keep going. You can't, , so she, her mind, he will definitely be walking around comforting everyone, and it's kind of, , it was telling people it's going to be okay. We have to move on. We have to keep going because that's really what her mind he does.

That's what she has learned to do over finding horcrux and fighting Voldemort. If you stop, there's no starting again. If you look back, you likely are never going to move forward. If you keep working through the problems you have now, you will never have to face them again in the future. And that's a very her Miami thing to do because her Miami has always been a very, knowing and sensitive and socially aware person.

, we, we saw about the books, how, uh, Ron and Harry are just oblivious. To any form of social cue and her meiny is like just completely baffled. And those enter like, like severely, I want to say severely entertained. It's like a harsh laughter at how, how oblivious, uh, Harry and Ronald. It's because there's so much happening around them and they just don't know.

They just don't notice it. It's so easy for them to, but they just design,  what we're okay. And her money has just spent most of her time studying, doing homework and laughing at Ron and Harry about how socially oblivious the two of them are. And I think that skill, that empathy really shows. If she were to do the things that we might see her do, if the death house part two, if the movie of the book kept going, she would definitely be walking around and just comforting everyone.

Then we move on to Harry. What would Harry do? What could Harry possibly do? Well, heritage have any family to be with? I'm sorry, but doesn't and her meiny is already comforting the general public. So I think Harry would. Kind of talk to the, some of his closer teachers and to some of the places as he would just kind of go to the places around the castle and morning almost because Harry has lost so much.

And he would probably start after making sure that the castle and the people were okay after the first week, then her mind he would go in and she would do her whole thing. And then where would Harry go? Ron is on home. Your mind is in the great hall. And Harry is probably in the houry kind of, , he's, he definitely goes into the gallery to remember Hedwig and although he didn't lose anyone in the battle, anyone close, very close, rather he did lose Hedwig in the seventh book.

Harry I think would definitely go into the allery to a first remember Hedwig and just to clear his head and look out over the grounds because I mean that all, Ru's a really nice place. It's nice and quiet, , just owls, hooting everywhere. And there isn't necessarily a really great. So Harry definitely goes to the allery and then he comes back.

And then I think that's when he goes into double doors office, , that's, that's when the whole, , the last double door thing, it goes down and all this. The first scene of Dumbledore when Harry dies and then comes back. I think that's a good scene of Dumbledore, but I think it's definitely more important to have a physical.

And like we know for sure is real kind of goodbye. So we know double, those portraits still is alive and talks. So Harry would definitely go in and talk to Dumbledore his portrait and, , just be talking about. Uh, professor, I did it. I beat him and then down below was say something, , Dumbledore.

He like. Of course. And then he would just like walk out of his frame and the hair whoop Perry will be left feeling, , happy. And then I'll also unsatisfied because Daimler didn't give him the answer he wanted and then he would walk out and that her money would we be like, Hey, how are you? Okay.

And then heroine would be like, yeah, I'm fine. He'd make some excuse and go walk away and get into loads of trouble. Like he always does, , , and homeless. The funny thing is that's how, that's how it always happens. He always does something gets a bad response. Lies well being okay, then goes, , and gets into trouble.

That's just the, that's just the pattern of Harry Potter. , that's how it goes. And I think that pattern would continue in the Harry Potter, eight to nine, whatever you want to call it. So the fact of the matter is I think that they would have to. Goodbye and open a new door with Hogwarts and magic and just the Wizarding world and the whole just kind of make an effort to recover and start with Hogwarts and move on and just continue outward until the whole of the Wizarding world is healed.

  So next up in our imaginary seek to Harry Potter, we have moving on from Hogwarts and moving away from the castle and the people. How does that work? I mean, I understand that they could get any job they wanted and they do, and they, , continue on and the, it would be super easy. It's like if a celebrity walked in and said, Hi, like I'm running low on cash would just give me, , something for free.

Of course you would do it. It's a celebrity. And as much as I think hair, you would, I don't think he would get a job right away, because he would have some kind of, some kind of thing that he wanted to do. , it's a very, very Joe thing to do. No, the author Dick early Joe would definitely have a, have a sense.

And she would definitely have hairy, you know, kind of spring up a last word with someone. Maybe it's all a vendor. Maybe it's grip hook again. No, no, not grip, but he's like kind of out of the picture, but maybe I think all vendors, definitely a good option. Or maybe add before or someone who helped him subtly and was really feeling like.

You know, the world was at its lowest and there's no coming back. Uh, we saw. When Harry went to shell college and Alvina was there and, you know, they were giving out the wands and then Harry says like, do you believe in the desperate house? And all of a sudden it was like, um, you know, yeah, it was, you know, kind of deflecting the question.

And then Harry says, you know, like, well, I think you know of one and then I'll finish it. Well, there has been rumor among Guam DeWanda makers that the older wand is in fact real. And that's when Harry says, we'll see how. And then all the vendors kind of skeptical thinking like, well, no, it's like it's fictional needed.

If he did Dumbledore head at first, there's no way he has it. And then as Harry's walking out, then all of Anderson. You know, Harry, if you really has got it, you don't stand a chance. And that was the moment where we kind of realized like this isn't a walk in the park anymore. Well, it wasn't before, but you know what I mean?

This is something that Harry isn't going to be able to stay away from. He has to face it head on and there no escape again. So that's kind of the moment where that happened. And then with apple, for us, when Harry and Ron and her mind. And they got into Hogsmeade. They were being chased by death use because the kind of walling charm on the village was, you know, screaming pretty loud.

And the trio had to hide some way, some place from the death theaters. And they're hiding under the tarp of a table or no, I dunno what that was and Abba let them into his bar. And they talked to Arianna and in the end they went to the order of the Phoenix. The room of requirement though, Dumbledore is army, you know, that whole scene.

But before that, you know, add before it gives them a food and it says like the order's done the Voldemort's one run while you can. And then Harry says like no much. And then, yeah. And then a fourth is going on about how, you know, his brother was in the person that Harry thought he was. And Harry had to like, say like, I don't know what you and your brother had between you, but I know.

And I trusted them, man. I do. Sorry. And Babel force was thinking like, okay, well, that's it. I guess, I guess we're doomed. And he loves hereon, but he says he like goodbye. You know, there's nothing, there's nothing there. And in the end he does show up and he saves Harry from like a couple, a couple of mentors flying down the bridge there, but that was.

Big. What's your honest, and that's kind of the kind of off topic, but the moment that we see add before with casting, that Patronis is really the moment that we see him as Dumbledore his brother standing here, like they're standing there with his wand out and just sending those huge blasts of Patronus, fending off the dementors.

And especially seeing that blast hit the, Demento seeing all these different little pinpricks of light, realizing that those are the dementors being warded. That's the moment that we realized I, before hasn't given up and he's been inspired by Harry and has moved on from his, you know, uneasiness of the orders.

So Harry, back to where we were before Harry would definitely go to all of Ander or add a fourth, maybe both and kind of not go to prove them wrong, but just to give them hope. I mean, after the battle of Hogwarts, he isn't going to go and spread negativity. I think Harry is definitely going to go to all the vendor first, just because I, before kind of came back and wasn't as comfortable as skeptical as you want.

So Harry would definitely go to Oliver Vander, and we kind of saying, you know, Voldemort is gone and he had the other one, but we beat him. If that shows you anything, it should just show that we aren't, you know, just,  waiting to be killed by some random force who decides to be in charge, you know, we're ready to take on the world and all the vendor, I think you should be too.

And that's a really, really good way for all vendors to kind of come to his senses. And then. Kickoff the new generation of wizards in which is by making more wines and just kind of, you know, starting the cycle again. And maybe you weren't taking on an apprentice because he was getting on in years. But I think then after all the Vander here, we'll go to  and.

Wouldn't be so much like, oh yeah, you did it. And I have new hope and I'm glad you beat him. He will be more like, thank you, Harry, for, for showing me that the hope is never lost. And I think if we can find hope again, There's nothing that we can't do. So Abba  is definitely going to be much happier about it than all the vendor.

And he could, because he's realized what the, what it means, you know, Voldemort gone and it's going to be a very, very long time before something else crops up that might need the fighting of the Wizarding world again. So after Harry does that, I think then he would investigate diminishing. I mean, like he didn't get his any WTS and he didn't get whatever.

Like what, I mean, in my opinion, it's, it's a bit of a hot take, but if you, um, kill Voldemort, I think you're, you're, you're kind of qualified, uh, to be an oral or shell I can, I can give together. So I think Harry would definitely get a job as an oral or, um, maybe not immediately, but definitely would go. And he would kind of help the ministry get back on.

And then I think he would dispel of the death theaters in there. And then he would, you know, you would give umbrage over to a bit of mentors and they would bring her to ask a man. So then Harry, of course he does not become the minister of magic, but he does become an aura and he's like mega respected in the or office.

So it's kind of a Harry's path. And other than that, I don't know. How, you know, like what the storyline is with the rest of the trio. But I do think that her mind, he got elected the minister of magic or a in, I want to say 2019, which is crazy to think that I just a couple of years ago, as of recording this, her mind, you would have become the minister administrative magic.

So that's just a really amazing thing to think of that. That is what they would do, but I think her mind. Would stick with the Hermione way and go on to be the minister of magic. I was imagery. I think it was ministry of magic. She would become the leader of the ministry. She would go on and become the leader of the ministry, or pretty much right after a Hogwarts.

And although, I don't know the laws, she will definitely become the leader of the ministry at the first chance. I know it's like certain ages to be elected the, the leader of your country or continent. So it's not like that. It was just like different ways to be put into a position of power. So I, I sincerely doubt that as like a 17 year old, she would be able to become the minister, the leader of the ministry.

But if it's by 20,000 with blah, it was by 2019. She's a good what, like almost 40 then. So I think it's close that her mind, he would be working constantly after the battle of Hogwarts. Her money would definitely be on the path of, you know, moving into a more professional life and making, uh, settling down with Ron and kind of doing that.

And then moving into the position of power that she, that we know she gets. And I think. Ron and her mind and move into the ministry of magic at around the same time. I know Harry goes in earlier, but I mean, I haven't read the Kersey child and forever, so I very blurry on this story, but I know they all go into the ministry at some point and you know, that is a whole poll thing.

So that's a storyline, but her, with her mind and her ongoing in. I think at Harry going in with them, it's definitely a continuation of how the story goes. I don't think that them going into the ministry will be included in the, uh, Harry Potter aids simply because that is included in the curse at child.

So it would just be the years leading up to it, you know, starting a family and really making these big decisions that would decide their future. So I think that is a well, what they would do after Hogwarts  So now they've moved on from Hogwarts they're in the ministry. They're starting families.

They're moving into their lives. What happens next is kind of a big and very, very broad question because we will never know literally what happens next. I do think that after the military and after Hogwarts, they're going to move on to try to fix the Wizarding world. And might I say. That task is supposed to say rather difficult and like trying to climb a tree with no handles, you know what I'm saying?

So it's really difficult to find a way up that wall. And I do think. That if they manage to, it will be a very strange outcome. Uh it's it's kind of a weird thing to explain. Fixing the Wizarding world is never going to work. They're never going to put it back together in the way it was. It was once you break a piece of glass, you're never going to find every piece, the glass.

You could glue it back together, but there's always going to be a couple of things, different about it. And as much as I think those things might not be for the ma might not be for the. I think if they managed to put the Wizarding world back into one piece, it's definitely likely that it will be stronger than it was.

They have gone through so much as a whole, I think if they were to recover and pull out of the misery of being, you know, under Voldemort's rule and under, you know, all of that because for a good, um, I want to say a good chunk of like a year. They were completely. Under the control of Baltimore. I mean, the ministry was controlled by Voldemort, Diagon alley, even Hogwarts for the most part was controlled by.

So even if they managed to put it back together, it will definitely be a very healthy world after that. After they do everything, you know, after they put the widget enrolled back together after Hogwarts is re-established after Diagon alley is repaired after the Wizarding world, as a whole is put back into its original form or semi original form, how.

Like, what does a true do? It just seems like they've done everything. And even as our wars and leader in the ministry, as with, in the case of her Miami, how do they move on and how do they do more good. It just seems, it seems almost impossible that they would be able to do even more good in the world, because if Baltimore's gone, I doubt any other major dark wizards are going to rise in that time.

So as oral wars, Harry and Ron might not have that, you know, job that they've always wanted because there's just no, Just to catch, of course there are going to be, but it's just not going to be soon and they're not going to have that job in the meantime. So they would have to find something else to occupy your time.

It might be, you know, starting some kind of charity. It might be helping, you know, people in their situation going, you know, students getting jobs and just kind of helping the people who are really struggling from Voldemort's rain and helping them get off the ground because of. Harry has never wanted the money in his vault.

So I would guess he would give a couple of gallons and startup money to a couple of different people. And then he would kind of start this almost company, not, not accompany with the first day, but I think Harry would definitely not. He'd definitely would not keep the money as bankable. So Harry would definitely move on in such a way that allowed him to help other people and also allowed other people to help.

 So I think that's it again, I have so many part twos, but again, I do, I, I have to make as a part two, I had to I'm staring at my last talking point. I wanted to talk about that one so bad, but it's going to have to wait. I believe I've do I have like three part two that have the documentary part two, the breakdown part two now of this part two, you're going to get those parties do not worry.

So everything is coming your way, but next week, Episode 100. And let me tell ya this. Months, this episode alone took months and it is horrible, but I have to start this somewhere. And I, I mean, it's, it's not very good, but let me tell you, I am so proud of it. So I'm hoping that it's not the episode that you're proud of.

I hope it is the fact that the hundred episodes in and you're still going. That is the whole milestone. So I am so glad that we have made it this far and with a hundred episodes. Th I I'm so excited if you're listening to this, uh, when the, the a hundred episodes already out, I mean, I hope you'll agree that it is a very good episode, not in the sense that it isn't a good episode, but I felt like a hundred episodes, a hundred episodes.

That is crazy that I managed to make it that far a year and a hundred episodes. It's weird that I've made it a hundred episodes in, in, you know, just over a year, because I remember I started with two episodes a week leave every Wednesday and Sunday, I think. Yeah, that was theories. In theory days. I remember those.

Now, and I'm doing one a week. I did manage to get a hundred out just because two a week sounds doesn't sound like a lot, but it was a lot. Uh, so I definitely was pumping out episodes a lot faster back then, but now I'm hoping the quality of episodes is going up. So I mostly will just have 52 episodes in their first year.

So now we have, you know, almost a hundred is pretty cool, but a hundred episodes is coming at you next week. It involves Voldemort. It's the past. It's just. It's kind of cool. And I even got other people you've never heard another person's voice, only three people. Me and the two guests I've had. Those are the only people you've heard in this podcast.

So you you'll hear two more. So that's pretty cool if you only for a couple of couple seconds, but still, you know, variety, but I'm so glad that you have stuck with me this long and I will save all that stuff. We're at a hundred episodes, but thank you so much for this. If you have any questions, comments, topics, Christmas, or questions, breakdowns flip the script or any other shares you want me to do.
