Susan (teilani) now:
One problem with this... SS 1:14 Hagrid says, "Young Sirius Black 
_lent_ it to me"  (my emphasis)  and SS 1:16  Hagrid says, "I'll be 
takin' Sirius his bike back."  So, did he?  He dropped off baby Harry 
and left.  Where'd Hagrid go?  Did he find Sirius and return the 
bike?
