Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Scene 12 Summary

  • Harry and Ginny are running Quidditch tryouts for Gryffindor.
  • Some arrogant dude named Cormac (wait, didn't Hermione make awkward eye contact with this guy back in the joke shop?) chats up Ron while they're waiting to try out. Apparently, he wants to go for Keeper (uh…that's Ron's position) and get Hermione's phone number. Ron seems put out by both ideas.
  • The tryouts commence.
  • Oh, snap. This Cormac guy is pretty good. But just when it looks like he's about to completely nail his tryout, Hermione, watching from the stands, seems to utter a charm to knock him away from his goal. Looks like she's helping Ron out.
  • Also, that moony-looking girl from the joke shop has come to cheer on Ron. Drama.
