Potter Revisited Episode #91 Opting Out of the Opt Out Option AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 31 "The Third Task" We are finally at the last task of the Triwizard Tournament! Harry feels a lot of sympathy for Neville after learning what happened to his parents, and feels a new hatred for Voldemort and what he has cost people  For the first time, Harry is properly prepared for a task  Rita has changed her tune on Harry - he really should file a lawsuit  Hermione has a brainwave about Rita and of course, does not tell Harry and Ron anything  If a champion had been Muggle Born, would their family been able to come to Hogwarts? Molly tells Amos that Rita Skeeter is a liar but seemed to believe it when it was about Hermione....  Percy is taking the Mr Crouch news very hard There are some safety guidelines implemented for the Third Task - has opting out been an option this whole time?  Was the Third Task set up to be something Harry would excel at? Harry's initial reflect when Fleur is in trouble is to help, but then thinks about the competition Does it seem wrong that Fleur is the one who always seems to struggle in the tournament? It seems to further the bias of female characters that are generally more feminine are not taken seriously?  Fake Mood did not count on Cedric being such a good sport and Harry having empathy  Harry used all the traits of the houses within the tournament  This is where the series really changes - Harry is never the same after this point in the book  Snape Sucks count for Chapter 31:0 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback  [email protected] Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us:  Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited
