Potter Revisited Episode #85 Petty Pyjama Party AKA Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Chapter 25 "The Egg and the Eye"

• Harry decides to finally use Cedric's advice and use the Prefect bathroom to take a bath with the egg
• We get why Harry suddenly thinks he should be a Prefect - just for the bathroom perks 
• This bathroom sounds like goals - a bathtub as big as a pool? 
• There is a lot of recapping from previous books in this chapter - is it really necessary? Seems to be a big theme of it in GoF specifically 
• Myrtle is back! We are cursed with that scene from the GoF movie 
• Why does sewage exist in the magical world?

• Lots of Death Eater foreshadowing from Moody
• Moody gaslights Snape so hard
• Moody suggests that Harry should be an aurror - is that just an off comment since this Moody is an imposer
• This idea of being an aurror sticks with Harry throughout the series - was this the best career choice for Harry? 
• We discuss the trios careers post-Hogwarts and what we would imagine their lives after the series to be 
• Snape Sucks total for Chapter 25: 0
