Newt gathers his passport and case.

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL: "Livestock?"

NEWT: "Thank you."

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL: "Next!"

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL: "First trip to New York?"

The customs official spins the case toward him and pops the catches, lifting the lid to reveal: Pajamas, various maps, a journal, an alarm clock, a magnifying glass, and a Hufflepuff scarf. Finally satisfied, he closes the case.

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL (gesturing to Newt's case): "Anything edible in there?"

NEWT: "Must get that fixed -- ahh, no."

Newt places the case on the desk between them and discreetly flicks a brass dial to MUGGLEWORTHY.

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL (suspicious): "Let me take a look."

EXT. SHIP/INT. CUSTOMS -- SHORTLY AFTERWARD -- DAY

Among bustling crowds, Newt walks down the gangplank of the ship as we push in toward his case.

NEWT: "Yes."

The catch on Newt's case flicks open again. Newt looks down and hastily closes it.

NEWT: "Yes."

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL (O. S.): "Next."

Newt stands at customs -- a long row of desks by the shipyard, manned by serious-looking American officials. A customs official examines Newt's very tattered British passport.

NEWT (placing a hand over his breast pocket): "No."

Newt exits through customs.

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL: "Welcome to New York."

CUSTOMS OFFICIAL: "British, huh?"
