Episode Summary
Potter Revisited Episode #61 Frank Bryce and the... Oops! He's Dead AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 1 "The Riddle House"
We begin Goblet of Fire! We are both so excited for this book and the darker tone the series takes from here
We answer our first listener question - why do we think Harry is an idiot?
Tori brings up some fun GoF facts, including a Weasley character that was eventually scrapped from the book
Tori brings up a childhood memory of reading this book for a book report - and her mom not believing she could finish it in time
This is one of the few chapters we get that is not through Harry's perspective and Shay loves it
We get the life story of Muggle Frank Bryce as well as some backstory on the Riddle family
Tori wonders how Voldemort is currently existing
Wormtail is basically keeping Voldemort alive yet he is treated so poorly - it really shows how little self esteem Peter has that he just doesn't leave
Voldemort mentions his faithful servant at Hogwarts - foreshadowing the next mystery for the readers to solve
The tone in the first chapter already is a lot darker than the first three books
We are introduced to Frank and then he is murdered - does this foreshadowing more deaths to come?
Shay loves this chapter and they way it is written
Snape Sucks total for Chapter 1: 0
