Bellatrix gets fired

This is how Bellatrix gets fired goes in The Deathly Hallows.

[The next day, Mac walks around as the princesses run into him]

Mac Grimborn: What's going on?

Princess Cadance: You should come see this.

Mac Grimborn: See what?

[She points at the news billboard saying "Princesses show their true colors"]

Princess Luna: "Princesses show their true colors?" That never happened.

[They see the words, "Photo by Bellatrix Lestrange"]

Mac Grimborn: I'm gonna put some dirt in her eye.

[We cut to Stiix as Bellatrix spreads out the toasts]

Bansha: Cheers to the new staff photographer.

Bellatrix Lestrange: Thank you.

[As Bellatrix puts up her photo, Mac appears]

Bellatrix Lestrange: Wow, good morning. It's a beautiful day, huh? What was it you said? I'll never get that picture? There are your heroes.

Mac Grimborn: What I meant was, I knew you'd get it. I never thought they'd really do that.

Bellatrix Lestrange: See? Right there. You made a judgment call. You gotta see it as it is.

Mac Grimborn: Funny you should say that, because I was looking through some old photos and it looks very... similar. [realizes something] You're a fraud, Bellatrix.

Bellatrix Lestrange: Excuse me?

Mac Grimborn: Your picture's a fake. [shows her a pair of differences inside his folder]

Bellatrix Lestrange: Oh, Grimborn, you are such a boy scout. When are you gonna give a gal a break?

[Mac holds her back as everyone watches]

Mac Grimborn: You want forgiveness? Get religion.

Igor Karkaroff: What's going on here?

Bansha: Hey, you two alright?

Bellatrix Lestrange: Yeah. No, we... We're just horsing around. [to Mac] Look, I'm begging you. If you do this, I will lose everything. There's not a paper in town that will hire me.

Mac Grimborn: You should've thought of that earlier. [drags Bellatrix with him]

Igor Karkaroff: Where are you going, Mac?

Mac Grimborn: Your editor needs to see this. He really has to check her real source next time.

[Ronin checks out Mac's two photos of the princesses]

Igor Karkaroff: It's a fake. Mac confirms it.

Mac Grimborn: Ronin, if it might ease your conscience, might I suggest that you fire her?

Ronin: [slams the photos on his desk] You heard Mac. Pack your things. Get out of my building.

Bellatrix Lestrange: I was just trying...

Ronin: You're fired.

[Bellatrix leaves ashamed]

Igor Karkaroff: You know we're gonna have to print a retraction now.

Ronin: I've never printed a retraction in twenty-six years!

[Elsewhere, the phone rings as Twilight answers]

Twilight Sparkle: Hello?

Severus Snape: Miss Sparkle. Professor Snape here.

Twilight Sparkle: How are you?

Severus Snape: Quite a specimen Mac left me. It came from some kind of meteorite.

Twilight Sparkle: Thanks.

Severus Snape: And it amplifies the characteristics of its host, especially aggression.

Twilight Sparkle: Aggression?

Severus Snape: Mac didn't say how long this would last, did he? Twilight?

Twilight Sparkle: No.

[Elsewhere, Bansha is impressed]

Bansha: Oh, these shots are so good.

Mac Grimborn: Bansha, I've got a job to do.

Ronin: [arrives with Igor] Mac! [to Bansha] Bansha, that's not the position I hired you for.

Igor Karkaroff: [sees the photos] Black-suited princesses. Mac, these are amazing. [to Ronin] We gotta have these, Ronin.

Ronin: I'll pay you the usual rate.

Mac Grimborn: Deal.
