Protego made a sympathetic noise. "A right mess, sounds like," he said. "I'll take a look at it. Hopefully it's nothing too complicated." And if it was, hopefully the box itself wasn't sentimental. He wasn't sure what he could do, for instance, if her wand had managed to fire off a powerful sticking charm or something like that, except try to get into it the old-fashioned muggle way. Well, anyway, he had many options before they got to anything so dire.
