Dobby’s first line in both the books and the movie expresses his awe at meeting Harry Potter. Dobby, like most of the wizarding world, is aware of who Harry is before Harry even knows he’s a wizard. As Dobby points out to Harry at one point, Harry’s “defeat” of Voldemort as a baby means that a lot of older wizarding families start to treat their house-elves much better than before. Though Dobby might still be treated poorly by the Malfoy family, he is already grateful to Harry for the way things changed for other house-elves.

When Harry gives him a pair of old socks for Christmas in the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire novel, however, Dobby is shocked to find that the socks match as he’s been under the impression that each one is unique. It’s a sweet moment that highlights what Dobby doesn’t know about something so simple despite living and working with wizards his entire life.

As a result, nearly every time he decides to help Harry, he also makes comments about punishing himself if he does it incorrectly, which unnerves Harry a great deal. Harry doesn’t need his allies flinging themselves off the Astronomy tower if they aren’t able to complete a task, and he has to make that clear to Dobby multiple times.

It’s just chaotic enough to make Dobby appear as a comedic character, while also showing the terrible situation that house-elves are in, constantly feeling that they need to obey their master and punish themselves for any defiance.

It also shows how much Harry cares about Dobby, and since he spends the majority of the movie being annoyed by him, it marks a significant amount of growth. Dobby’s ecstatic cries of freedom will always be one of the best Harry Potter franchisequotes.
