Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 recap
Voldemort takes over the Ministry. The Order moves Harry out of his aunt's house using six decoy Harrys, and Mad-Eye is killed. At Bill and Fleur's wedding the Ministry falls, and Harry, Ron and Hermione flee and go on the run. They learn that the real locket is in Umbridge's possession, steal it from the Ministry, and cannot destroy it. Wearing it poisons their moods, and Ron walks out. Harry and Hermione visit Godric's Hollow and are ambushed by Nagini. Ron returns, saving Harry and destroying the locket with the sword of Gryffindor. Xenophilius Lovegood tells them about the Deathly Hallows: the Elder Wand, the Resurrection Stone and the Invisibility Cloak.
