Aw. How JKR has moved on from simply having her heroes drug folk unconscious. (I always found CoS and the sleeping spell in Crabbe and Goyle's food creepily reminiscent of date-rape drugs, what with them taking their bodies, so to speak; and giving their victims all the blame in the situation: They should have known better than to accept food from strangers. Bet they were wearing short skirts, too! ;)
