[First lines]

Dumbledore:
(To cat) I should have known that you would be here... Professor McGonagall.

(The cat turns into McGonagall)

McGonagall:
Good evening, Professor Dumbledore. Are the rumors true, Albus?

Dumbledore:
I'm afraid so, Professor. The good and the bad.

McGonagall:
And the boy?

Dumbledore:
Hagrid is bringing him.

McGonagall:
Do you really think it wise trusting Hagrid with something as important as this?

Dumbledore:
Ah, Professor. I would trust Hagrid with my life.

(Hagrid appears on a flying motorcycle)

Hagrid:
Professor Dumbledore, sir. Professor McGonagall.

Dumbledore:
Ah, Hagrid. No trouble, I assume?

Hagrid:
No, sir. Little tyke fell asleep just as we were flying over Bristol. (hands Dumbledore a bundle - Harry) Try not to wake him.

(Dumbledore takes Harry and heads for the Dursleys)

McGonagall:
Do you think it's safe, leaving him with these people? I've watched them all day, they're the worst sort of... Muggles imaginable. They really are--

Dumbledore:
The only family he has.

McGonagall:
This boy will be famous. There won't be a child in our world that doesn't know his name.

Dumbledore:
Exactly. He's better off growing up away from all that... until he is ready.

(Dumbledore places Harry on the doorstep. Hagrid snivels.)

Dumbledore:
There, there, Hagrid. It's not really goodbye, after all.

(Hagrid nods)

Dumbledore:
(Places a letter on Harry) Good luck... Harry Potter.
