- Bad Future Severus Snape reacts to his own demise in the main timeline with nothing more than dry amusement.Snape: How?
Scorpius: Bravely.
Snape: Who?
Scorpius: Voldemort.
Snape: ... How very irritating.- And a few scenes later, upon further reflection:Snape: Well, at least I'm not married to him. (pointing Ron with his head.)
- And a few scenes later, upon further reflection:
- The appearance of the Trolley Woman on the train roof. The whole scene is so ridiculous that it's just plain funny, and makes her scenes in the previous books and movies even more so
◊. - The duel between Harry and Draco in Harry's kitchen. Ginny walks in and just asks what happened to her kitchen when she sees the floating chairs. The scene plays out like a weary mother scolding her two naughty children.
- Ludo Bagman's commentary on the Triwizard Tournament, especially the champions: "Viktor 'Krazy' Krum! Zut alors, it's Fleur Delacour! Cedric 'Delicious' Diggory and Harry 'Plucky' Potter!"
- The Running Gag in which he gets more and more annoyed at the Dull Surprise of the Beauxbatons students.
- The dark alternate timeline turns out to be created because a bitter Cedric joined the Death Eaters and killed Neville. Hearing of the original timeline, Ron and Hermione basically react with "this is all because of Neville Longbottom?"
- McGonagall's tendency to speak for the entire audience on many of the adult characters' more… questionable decisions, such as how Hermione hid the stolen Time-Turner.McGonagall: And in a bookcase. You kept it in a bookcase. It's almost laughable.
- Moaning Myrtle is only in one scene, but she makes the most of it and has been hailed as one of the funniest parts of the play. In the scene where Harry realizes that Albus has the Time-Turner and McGonagall realizes the Time-Turner exists, Myrtle is hilariously gleeful and can hardly contain herself.Myrtle: Isn't EVERYONE so naughtyyy!
- Albus' explanation for why Scorpius can't be Voldemort's son: "Look, you've got a nose."
- The scene of Albus (currently polyjuiced as Ron) trying to distract Harry and Hermione from going into her office is funny on its own, with him doing so by kissing Hermione (his aunt!) about 'a hundred times', asking if they can have 'another baby... or a holiday... holiday and a baby' and physically blocking the door while barefaced denying he's doing so. What makes it truly hilarious though is Albus later noting that none of that was remotely out of character for Ron, and judging by Hermione's somewhat indifferent irritation, he's completely right.
- During Act I, when Malfoy is blaming Harry for the rumors about Voldemort, we get this exchange:Draco: Isn't your wife a Daily Prophet redactor?
Ginny: Of the sports section! - Scorpius poking fun at Albus Liking Older Women.
- A lot of the wizarding world think that Scorpius is Voldemort's son. Given that Scorpius looks identical to Draco, we're not sure how they came to that conclusion.
