One scene I'd love to have seen in the books would have been  
Narcissa's trial before the Wizengamot...and her defense by none other  
than Harry Potter!  He explains just how Narcissa lied to the Dork  
Lord, and Narcissa's let go (Lucius has yet to explain that little  
"Why were you out of Azkaban where you belong" thing) and, on the way  
out, Harry is grabbed by Narcissa, who asks him _why he did it._

Harry just looks at her and says "Can _I_ of all people turn my back  
on a mother who risked death for the love of her son?"
