Count me among the disappointed. One of my pet hopes was skewered 
when Narcissa turned up on that family tree. I'd always hoped 
Narcissa had a great-grandfather who was a Muggle dockworker in 
Liverpool that Lucius didn't know about.  I'd like to see his world 
rocked when he found out he married someone one-eighth Muggle (or 
whatever the fraction is.)

I'll just have to settle for Lucius being REALLY close to his troll 
cellmate.
