JACOB: "Kowalski… Jacob…"

Tina takes Jacob's hand to shake it.

TINA: "It was open?"

TINA: "That crazy Niffler thing's on the loose again?"

NEWT: "Hello."

TINA: "What else have you got in there?"

Look! Jacob moans.

TINA (about Jacob, worried): "His neck's bleeding, he's hurt! Wake up, Mr. No-Maj…"

Tina hurries inside to find Newt, trying to look innocent and composed, sitting on the bed. He calmly seals the latches on his case.

NEWT: "Nothing to worry about. That is a Murtlap."

With Tina's back turned, Newt makes toward the door. Suddenly Tina emits a guttural scream as the Murtlap comes scuttling out from under a cabinet and latches onto her arm. Newt spins, catching the creature by the tail and grappling it into the case.

TINA: "Mercy Lewis, what is that?"

Tina drops Jacob's case and makes straight for the injured Jacob.

JACOB (recognizing Newt): "You!"

Unnoticed by either, Jacob opens his eyes.

INT. JACOB'S ROOM -- AFTERNOON

TINA: "Then look for it!"

NEWT: "Just a smidge…"

TINA: "Easy, Mr.--"

NEWT: "Er -- it might be --"

NEWT: "It'll last forty-eight hours at most! I can keep him if you want me to --"

TINA: "Oh, keep him? We don't keep them! Mr. Scamander, do you know anything about the wizarding community in America?"

TINA: "He's hurt! He looks ill!"

TINA: "What?"

NEWT: "He'll be fine. Murtlap bites aren't serious."

TINA: "You can't Obliviate him! We need him as a witness."

Newt puts his wand away. Jacob retches into the corner, while Tina looks at Newt in disbelief.

Terrified, Jacob feels the seat of his pants.

TINA: "This is balled up!"

NEWT: "I do know a few things, actually. I know you have rather backwards laws about relations with non-magic people. That you're not meant to befriend them, that you can't marry them, which seems mildly absurd to me."

NEWT: "I'm sorry -- you've just yelled at me the length of New York for not doing it in the first place…"

NEWT: "I admit that is a slightly more severe reaction than I've seen, but if it was really serious -- he'd have…"

NEWT: "Well, the first symptom would be flames out of his anus --"

Newt raises his wand. Jacob recoils in fear, clutching at Tina, who moves protectively in front of him.

NEWT: "I don't see why I need to come with you --"

Jacob is following this conversation, openmouthed.

TINA: "Help me!"

Tina tries to lift the only partly conscious Jacob from the floor.

Newt feels obliged to help.

TINA: "Who's going to marry him? You're both coming with me --"

JACOB: "I'm… I'm dreaming, right? Yeah… I'm tired, I never went to the bank. This is all just some big nightmare, right?"

TINA: "For the both of us, Mr. Kowalski."

Tina and Newt Disapparate with Jacob.

We focus on the photo of Jacob's grandma, once again hanging on the wall. Eventually the photo gives a little shake before falling and revealing a hole in the wall, inhabited by the Niffler.
