The car journey home was filled with a tense silence, Vernon was driving speedily down the road, hoping to get home quickly so the freak could be punished, he had already ranted at the boy, promising that he would regret this. Dudley sat in the back, he was sat as far right as they could without falling out of the car, a zoo keeper had quickly come over after hearing the commotion and released Dudley for the enclosure, the whole family had been offered free entry for an entire year but Petunia had shouted at them for even suggesting that they would come back to such a dangerous place and that they would be telling all of her friends to never return, which of course she wouldn't be as that would mean admitting that something abnormal had happened to the family which she just could not allow.
