I don't know what everyone's so upset about--lizard skins, bones, eyes, and tails are crucial ingredients in a lot of potions. Me, I'm excited about restocking my supply cupboards; what's all the kvetching about?

Mr. Puckerman, I believe we're due for a meeting before Sunday's match. I'm looking forward to hearing your latest strategy.

We need to meet about it?

Do you object? I'm merely curious as to what your strategy will be.

I know you don't want to lose to Ravenclaw, Mister Puckerman, and frankly neither do I. I'm sure I don't have to tell you how insufferable their captain is... Mr. Reed and his sarcasm rankle me, my boy, and I won't stand to vindicate his boasting.

The strategy is to kick their scrawny nerd asses.

I know. He sucks.

All right, that's a good start, but don't forget that what your scrawny nerd opponents may lack in moxie they surely make up for in method. I'd just hate to see your overconfidence bite you--and the rest of us--in the tuckus, Mr. Puckerman.

I think Vriska's gonna try to put all of them in the hospital wing before anyone even sees the snitch. She's crazy and they know it, so they'll all be scared, in addition to just being lame in general.

That's always a winning choice. Just ascertain she makes it look good. We can't afford to lose any more points. I'm counting on you, Puckerman--if we win this game I can get away with awarding Slytherin enough points to put us in the lead again.

Really? That dick put us pretty far behind.

Well, I mean, I don't think it's unacceptable to award the winning team fifty points, do you? It shows a lot of House Spirit, coming together to win the game, and all. That'd put us just one measly point behind Gryffindor, and surely we can find a way to pull ahead with that small a margin.

Won't people get on your ass for being biased?

You and Miss Serket just make the game look good, Mr. Puckerman, and you let me worry about staff politics.

Right. It'll look great.
