Excellent likeness!

I can't place the quote, though.

You have to re-read the books :)

I guess so! At least, 6 and 7. (Wasn't Dobby freed at the end of 5?)

Terrific image, and interesting solve.
The title made me think of a boxer, but then the image was looking a little more Punch & Judy until the last bit, so the image was a fun surprise when it revealed itself to me.

I haven't been a movie goer for quite a long time, so wouldn't have recognized the image. But it didn't come together for me until the end. A wonderful puzzle and a great solve.

He was freed at the end of Chamber of Secrets (book 2), when Harry gave the diary back to Lucius with the sock over (book) or inside (movie) the book :)

...oh, so the quote is a reference to the title, sock expert. Harry gave Dobby a pair of socks, but Dobby, who had seven at the time, didn't know that they came in matched pairs.

But Dobby didn’t move. He was holding up Harry’s disgusting, slimy sock, and looking at it as though it were a priceless treasure.
“Master has given a sock,” said the elf in wonderment. “Master gave it to Dobby.”
“What’s that?” spat Mr. Malfoy. “What did you say?”
“Dobby has got a sock,” said Dobby in disbelief. “Master threw it, and Dobby caught it, and Dobby — Dobby is free.”

Check out those ears! Fun solve, David.

Thanks for the excerpt, Steve.
