SCORPIUS: "Hello, Mr. Stationmaster. Mr. Muggle. Question: Did you see a flying witch passing here? And by the way, what year is it? We just ran away from Hogwarts because we were frightened of upsetting things, but this is okay?"

ALBUS: "One of us should talk to him, don't you think?"

ALBUS: "You know what annoys me most of all? Dad will think we did it deliberately."

SCORPIUS: "Albus. Really? I mean, really really? We're -- trapped -- lost -- in time -- probably permanently -- and you're worrying what your dad might think about it? I will never understand the two of you.

ALBUS: "There's a lot to understand. Dad's pretty complicated."

ALBUS and SCORPIUS are looking at a STATIONMASTER, apprehensively.

SCORPIUS: "Let's not think about that. Let's focus on the fact that we have no wands, no brooms, no means of returning to our time. All we have is our wits and -- no, that's all, our wits -- and we have to stop her."

They both know who he's talking about.

SCORPIUS: "And you're not? Not to question your taste in women, but you fancied… well…"

ALBUS: "I did, didn't I? I mean, what she did to Craig…"

STATIONMASTER (in very strong Scots): "Ye ken th' auld reekie train is running late, boys?"

SCORPIUS's face falls as he realizes.

STATIONMASTER: "Late."

He looks at them, they look back bewildered. He frowns and hands them an amended timetable. He points to the right bit of it.

SCORPIUS: "You understood that?"

STATIONMASTER: "If you're waiting oan th' auld reekie train, you'll need tae ken it's running late. Train wirks oan th' line. It's a' oan th' amended time buird."

ALBUS takes it and examines it. His face changes as he takes in enormous information. SCORPIUS just stares at the STATIONMASTER.

SCORPIUS: "The 30th October, 1981. Day before Hallows' Eve, thirty-nine years ago. But -- why is she? Oh."

ALBUS: "I know where she is."

ALBUS: "Look at the date. On the timetable."

SCORPIUS leans in and reads.

ALBUS: "The death of my grandparents. The attack on my dad as a baby… The moment when Voldemort's curse rebounded on himself. She's not trying to bring about her prophecy -- she's trying to prevent the big one."

SCORPIUS: "Sorry?"

ALBUS: "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches…"

SCORPIUS: "The big one?"

SCORPIUS and ALBUS: "… born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies…"

SCORPIUS joins in.

SCORPIUS's face falls with every word.

ALBUS: "In twenty-four hours' time Voldemort curses himself trying to kill the baby Harry Potter. Delphi is trying to prevent that curse. She's going to kill Harry herself. We need to get to Godric's Hollow. Now."

SCORPIUS: "It's my fault. I told her that prophecies can be broken -- I told her the whole logic of prophecies is questionable --"
