/Draco describes the situation succinctly: "Well, I can certainly see why we're trying to keep them alive. Who wouldn't want pets that can burn, sting and bite all at once?"/
*laughs* Yeah, this is one of my favorite lines from Draco.
I really don't see what the point of the skrewts was. And the fact that Hagrid doesn't care that a skrewt burned Dean doesn't cast him in a very favorable light. And Harry, Hermione, and Ron later wonder why nobody else from their class is upset that Hagrid almost loses his job?
/And while she gets Harry's birthday wrong, it is the accurate birth date for Tom, a fragment of whom is in Harry's head. And her horoscope is accurate for Tom./
Very interesting, I never noticed that before.
/'Moody' transforms Draco into a pure white ferret. Even as an animal Draco looks good./
Just think, this is the scene that launched a thousand fanfics featuring Draco as a ferret Animagus, Draco with a ferret Patronus, and the epithet "ferret boy/face/etc." as a common insult for Draco.
/Nor do we know how long 'Moody' would have continued if it weren't for Minerva's intervention./
