Draco was snooping around, walking through a hall downstairs from the entrance hall. He was dragging his finger along the wall, letting it rub against all the paintings of food down in that dimly lit hall. He was startled when he suddenly heard giggling, and he turned around quickly, only to see a pear in a fruit bowl giggling, as he had accidentally brushed his finger against it. The pear then turned into a doorknob, and Draco cautiously opened it out of curiosity.
He was surprised to see the Hogwarts kitchen, complete with tables in the center in the exact same positions as the ones upstairs in the great hall. "So that's how they do it!" Draco thought as he saw a house-elf set a dish on a table, with the dish suddenly disappearing soon afterward.

He belched loudly and patted his full belly, which was starting to press on his robes. The house-elf from before said, "You sure polished that off, kid! If you ever want to take an unwanted dish off our hands, help yourself! We could use the extra counter space!"
