3. Professor Trelawney Knows Unlucky 13
Crazy old Professor Trelawney (Emma Thompson) seems to make a lot of stabs in the dark, these predictions throughout her story that she tosses around like candy. How many of them come true? Well, one does for sure, and it’s a big one. When Dumbledore invites Trelawney to take a seat with them during Christmas dinner in The Prisoner of Azkaban, Trelawney says, “If I join the table, we shall be thirteen! Nothing could be more unlucky! Never forget that when thirteen dine together, the first to rise will be the first to die!” Which is a pretty crazy thing to say if you think about it. But, the crazy old bat is right. If you remembered that Scabbard is in Ron’s pocket and Scabbard is actually Peter Pettigrew. Now, if you could count then you might recognize that there are already 13 people at the table. Guess who stands up next. That’s right, Dumbledore. Maybe you should start taking Trelawney’s skills a little more seriously.
