Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 Scene 19 Summary

  • Harry is lying in bed, staring at the Snitch, and then he seems to realize something.
  • He puts the Snitch on his mouth, and suddenly writing appears on it. It says: "I OPEN AT THE CLOSE."
  • You see, Snitches have something called "flesh" memories, and so it only responded to Harry's mouth—because when Harry first caught it, he actually almost swallowed it.
  • He shares the news with Hermione, who says she's found something, too: A symbol drawn into the book the Dumbledore left her. It's the same symbol that Luna's dad was wearing at Fleur and Bill's wedding.
  • Not that they know what the symbol means, but perhaps it's important, since it keeps popping up.
  • Harry says that he wants to go to Godric's Hollow, and Hermione agrees.
