Just as a side note this scene, in particular the mention of Malfoys 
stash under the floorboards appeared only in outtakes, on the DVD I 
have viewed.
I think that may be relevant to the point we are making. 
Do you suppose the important plot development could be extracted and 
added to the extra scenes catalogue, or should it be in the final 
*three hour* cut.
Is there any debate as to the floorboards statement appearing in the 
movie. 
And more importantly the hand of Glory did appear in the final cut of 
the DVD I have viewed. As I recall, in the final cut I veiwed, Draco 
didn't talk about it, but, Harry _did_ find himself locked in its 
grasp. 
If I was to place any bets it might be on this.
Then perhaps the cataloguing of Dracos dialogue on it could be 
accessory to it. 
These few thoughts are not well congealed are they.
