Another post from long ago (I'm making some progress while being 
bored at 2:35AM)

Anyway, I always imgagined it going something like this...


When Umbridge or anyone else forces Harry to reveal Sirius' 
whereabouts, Harry says Number 12 Grimmauld Place! To which Umbridge 
replies, Number What? Where?

I imagine her hearing the words but the words having no meaning to 
her. Number Who? What place?!

Number 12 Grimmauld place!!

Whose place? This place?! Make sense Potter! Have you been given a 
babbling beverage?!

Other times I'm reminded of Abbott and Costello, Who's on First? 
Who? Exactly.
