Alice and Martha continue the Ronversation, discussing Ron's plots with Quidditch and school as well as his relationships with Snape and Slughorn. There's a lot or rewinding, apparating, and confunding moments this week, and there's still another full episode of Ron in the sixth book before the sisters will begin the final eulogy on Ron.

Even thought last week's show would have been the perfect ending point for the show, Alice and Martha decide to return to finish eulogizing Ron his relationships with girls in the sixth book! Won-won may not make Madam Rosmerta laugh, but at least he's amazing with apparating and faking sleep in the Hospital Wing!
