Have you ever wondered why Percy Weasley's relentless ambition didn't land him a spot in Slytherin? Join Professor Wamble as he peels back the layers of one of the most polarizing characters in the Harry Potter series, probing into Percy's complex journey from rule-abiding prefect to estranged Weasley family member. Together, along with the survey responses, Professor Wamble traverses the convoluted path of Percy's choices, the Ministry's own blind spots, and a Weasley family dynamic that's both enchanting and heartbreaking.
