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
