117 INT. JERRY’S OFFICE – SAME TIME – NIGHT (PRESENT) 117
… the surface of the Pensieve, where Kramer quivers.
We RACK FOCUS and Jerry’s troubled face bleeds
through Kramer’s.

GEORGE
Sir –

Jerry holds up his withered hand, silencing him,
turns away. George studies him, waiting, the hush
palpable.

JERRY
(haunted)
This is beyond anything I
imagined. In my life I have seen
things that are unimaginably
horrific. I know now… you will
see worse.

Jerry looks off, his eyes distant. George watches
him intently, as do the NEWYORKERS in their frames
above. Finally, tentatively, George speaks.

GEORGE
Do you mean to say he succeeded,
sir? In making a Horcrux?

JERRY
Oh he succeeded. And not just
once. Think, George. He’s just
told us.

GEORGE
Seven. He made seven — the most
powerfully magical number. But…
what are they exactly?

(CONTINUED)

GEORGE COSTANZA… HALF-BLOOD PRINCE – Rev. 11/6/07 116.
117 CONTINUED: 117

JERRY
They can be anything. The most
commonplace of objects. A ring,
for example. Or a book…

Jerry slides open a drawer, removes the RING and Cosmo
Kramer’s battered DIARY.

GEORGE
Cosmo Kramer’s diary –

JERRY
It’s a Horcrux, yes. Four years
ago, when you saved Elaine's
life in the Chamber of
Secrets, when you brought me
this –
(holding up the
diary)
I knew. This was a different kind
of magic. Very dark. Very
powerful. But until tonight, I
had no idea just how powerful…

GEORGE
And the ring…?

JERRY
Belonged to Kramer’s mother.
It was difficult to find and…
(raising his damaged
hand)
… even more difficult to
destroy.

GEORGE
But if you could find them all.
If you did destroy each Horcrux…

JERRY
One destroys Kramer.

George begins to reach out for the ring…

GEORGE
But how would you find them? They
could be hidden anywhere, couldn’t
they…

JERRY
True. But magic, especially Dark
magic…
