SCENE 29
EXT. VICTORIA BUS STATION—EVENING
Footsteps nearby. Both ready their wands, but the footsteps die away. They walk
on.
DUMBLEDORE
Credence is in Paris, Newt. He’s trying to trace his real family. I
take it you’ve heard the rumors about who he really is?
NEWT
No.
DUMBLEDORE and NEWT board a stationary bus.
DUMBLEDORE
The purebloods think he’s the last of an important French line, a
baby whom everyone thought lost . . .
A look between them. NEWT is astonished.
NEWT
Not Leta’s brother?
DUMBLEDORE
That’s what they’re whispering. Pureblood or not, I know this: An
Obscurus grows in the absence of love as a dark twin, an only
friend. If Credence has a real brother or sister out there who can take
its place, he might yet be saved.
(beat)
Wherever Credence is in Paris, he’s either in danger or a danger to
others. We may not know who he is yet, but he needs to be found.
And I rather hoped you might be the one to find him.
DUMBLEDORE conjures NICOLAS FLAMEL’S card from thin air and offers it
to NEWT, who eyes it with suspicion.
NEWT
What’s that?
DUMBLEDORE
