MRS. DURSLEY: This is what we're going to do.
We're going to buy you two new presents. How's that, pumpkin?

Get in.

Can you hear me?
It's just, I've never talked to a snake before.
Do you ...?
Do you talk to people often?
You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there?
Do you miss your family?
I see. That's me as well. I never knew my parents either.

You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there? (Si iz Burme? Je bilo tam lepo?)
Do you miss your family? (Pogrešaš družino?)
Bred in captivity. (Vzgojena v živalskem vrtu.)
I see. That's me as well. I never knew my parents either. (Aha. Tudi jaz nisem poznal staršev.)
Mummy, Dad, you won't believe what this snake is doing! (Mami, oči, pridita! Glejta, kaj dela kača!)
Thanks. (Hvala.)
Anytime. (Ni za kaj.)
Snake! (Kača!)
Mum! Mummy! Help me! (Mami, pomagaj.)
