“It is not in the nature of Harry Potter to be forgiving,” Dumbledore, Harry’s mentor and headmaster of the wizarding school Hogwarts, is heard saying. The line originally has “a dementor” instead of Harry’s name, referring to the magical monsters that suck out people’s souls if left alone for too long.
