“TINA: I’ll have to go to the Ministry with what I’ve got.
(a wobble in her voice) It was nice to see you again, Mr. Scamander.
She strides from the room, leaving NEWT perplexed and upset.
INT. FLAMEL HOUSE, HALLWAY—AFTERNOON
JACOB follows TINA into the hall.
JACOB: Hey, hold on one second, will you? Well, hold on! Wait! Tina!
She leaves. As the front door closes, NEWT appears at the drawing room door.
JACOB: (to NEWT)
You didn’t mention salamanders, did you?
NEWT: No, she just—ran. I don’t know . . .
JACOB (firm): So you chase after her!
NEWT grabs his case. He leaves.

EXT. RUE DE MONTMORENCY—END OF DAY
TINA is hurrying up the road. NEWT hastens to catch up.
NEWT: Tina. Please, just listen to me—
TINA: Mr. Scamander, I need to go talk to the Ministry—and I know how you feel about Aurors—
NEWT: I may have been a little strong in the way that I expressed myself in that letter—
TINA: What was the exact phrase? “A bunch of careerist hypocrites”?
NEWT: I’m sorry, but I can’t admire people whose answer to everything that they fear or misunderstand is “kill it”!
TINA: I’m an Auror and I don’t—
NEWT: Yes, and that’s because you’ve gone middle head!
TINA (stopping): Excuse me?
NEWT: It’s an expression derived from the three heads of the Runespoor. The middle one is the visionary. Every Auror in Europe wants Credence dead—except you. You’ve gone middle head.
A beat.
TINA: Who else uses that expression, Mr. Scamander?
NEWT considers.
NEWT: I think it might just be me.”
