[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] is in emotional turmoil, so distraught that he cannot even remember how he got from [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/The Three Broomsticks|the Three Broomsticks]] and through the secret passage back into Hogwarts. Why had no one told him the truth about [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sirius Black|Sirius Black]]? Unfortunately, there is no opportunity to talk to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]] that night, and Harry does not fall asleep until almost 5:00 a.m. He awakes at around noon to an empty Common room. The Christmas holiday has begun, and nearly everyone has left Hogwarts.
 
Harry is filled with rage and black thoughts of revenge; Ron and Hermione are unable to reason with him. Harry remembers [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Draco Malfoy|Draco]] saying that if it were he, he would hunt Black down, but. Ron's tellsattempt to calm Harry, suggesting he would be better advised to listen to his friends rather than his enemies, seems ineffective. To change the subject, Ron suggests visiting [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rubeus Hagrid|Hagrid]], but this backfires when Harry seizes on it as an opportunity to ask Hagrid why he never mentioned Black. Ron is now reluctant to go, but Harry is adamant. They find Hagrid sobbing uncontrollably. Although Hagrid has been exonerated in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Buckbeak|Buckbeak's]] attack on Draco, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lucius Malfoy|his fatherLucius's]] complaint has been upheld. Buckbeak must appear before the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures. A distraught Hagrid is certain Buckbeak will be condemned, being that the committee members are all in Lucius Malfoy's pocket. Harry, Ron, and Hermione promise to find precedents that will save Buckbeak. Hagrid considers setting Buckbeak free, but how does one explain to a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Hippogriff|Hippogriff]] that it has to go into hiding? And, after his unfortunate sojourn in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Azkaban|Azkaban]], Hagrid is terrified of breaking the law. This all helps distract Harry, and he, Ron, and Hermione search the library for cases of dangerous creatures avoiding execution. Unfortunately, they find little information.
 
With Christmas comesbrings presents; Harry gets the usual hand-knit jumper (US: sweater) from [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Molly Weasley|Mrs. Weasley]], bright red with the Gryffindor lion woven into it, plus various treats. There is also a long thin package containing a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Brooms|broom]]. Not just any broom — a Firebolt. Harry and Ron are stunned. It is the finest and fastest broom there is., Harry has no idea who sent it, and it has not identifying note. Hermione is immediately suspicious, and says no one should ride it yet. Ron demands to know why but is interrupted by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Crookshanks|Crookshanks]] attacking [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Scabbers|Scabbers]]. In the commotion, Harry's [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Sneakoscope|pocket Sneakoscope]] starts whistling shrilly. Hermione and Crookshanks leave, and Harry tucks away the Sneakoscope in his trunk. Harry and Ron tend to Scabbers, who is looking poorly.
 
They head to the Great Hall where one table is set for twelve. In addition to themselves, only [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]], the four House Heads, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Argus Filch|Filch]], and three other students are having Christmas dinner. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sybill Trelawney|Professor Trelawney]] joins them, and suddenly realizes there are thirteen at the table. She melodramatically declares that the first to rise will be the first to die, although [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Minerva McGonagall|Professor McGonagall]] is skeptical. It is mentioned that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Remus Lupin|Professor Lupin]], who is apparently sick again, will not be joining them. Trelawney predicts his imminent "departure," but Dumbledore mildly says he does not think he is in any immediate danger, then checks with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Professor Snape]] that Lupin has received a potion. As Harry and Ron rise from the table two hours later, Trelawney demands to know who got up first. Because they rose together, they are unable to answer. Hermione stays behind to speak to Professor McGonagall. Minutes later, Professor McGonagall arrives in the Common room and confiscates Harry's Firebolt. Because it is unknown who sent it, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rolanda Hooch|Madam Hooch]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Filius Flitwick|Professor Flitwick]] will test it for any Dark Magic that may be embedded in it. If it is jinx-free, Harry will get it back. It should only take a few weeks. Both Harry and Ron are furious with Hermione, but she says that she and McGonagall believe the broom was sent by Sirius Black.
 
== Analysis ==
 
As Harry roils in emotional turmoil after learning the truthhistory aboutof Sirius Black and his parents' murders, Ron shows his budding maturity here. Rather than supporting Harry's desire for revenge, as might be expected, Ron calmly reasons with him, wisely counseling Harry to heed his friends' advice rather than listen to enemies like Draco Malfoy. Ron's attempts to diffusedefuse Harry's rage by redirecting his focus backfires, however, when Harry instead finds a new target (Hagrid) on whom to vent his frustration. That Hagrid is needing help is good timing: though we perceive how deeply distraught Harry is when he hears about Black, Hagrid's situation prevents Harry from dwelling on it, as he is likely to do. In this way, while Harry's despair is evident, we are spared being bored by his continuing reactions.
 
While Draco continues to taunt Harry, his father, Lucius Malfoy, creates even more misery by pressuring the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Ministry of Magic|Ministry]] to put Buckbeak, an obviously innocent victim, on trial. Not onlyIt is not immediately obvious whether Malfoy's inherentlyhas evilany naturespecific workingmotive in pursuing this attack against Buckbeak, though it could be argued that Lucius is only seeking revenge against the creature who dared to injure his son. It is also possible that, while Draco continues his campaign of harassment on Harry, andLucius is using Buckbeak as a way of retaliating against Hagrid, butand alsoincidentally against the policies of Professor Dumbledore, who hired him for the position. ItThe alsosuccess he has in this endeavor shows how easily the Ministry can be manipulated and hoodwinked by someone wielding wealth and influence. Rather than being corrupt, the Ministry seems more lazy and indifferent, unwilling to expend the energy to uncover the truth, as with Buckbeak, and even as far back as the Potters' murders. Instead, it opts to quickly convict more readily available suspects, regardless what the evidence shows. Whether Lucius is physically present in the story or not, his evil influence continually permeates the series.
 
Trelawney's prediction that Lupin will soon depart Hogwarts actually has a high probability of coming true. However, she has probably (subconsciously) based this on historical fact rather than on any divination insight, though she likely believes she has truly foreseen the unknown future. For some decades, no Defense[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Defence Against the Dark Arts|Defence Against the Dark Arts]] teacher has ever lasted more than one year at Hogwarts, and it is unclear if Lupin can break this pattern. While Trelawney is hinting that Lupin will die, we actually should expect this from her; Trelawney is over-dramatizing, an age-old fortune-teller's trick. Her prediction that the first to rise from the table will be the first to die is similarly melodramatic, and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 27|will be proven false]]. Once again, massivea amountscombination of drama and fakery is passed off as a magical discipline in this exposure to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Divination|Divination]].
 
The Firebolt being confiscated will likely create a severe rift between Hermione and Harrythe andother Rontwo. Hermione, who usually overlooksdoes theirlittle irregularmore behaviorthan despiteexpress her disapproval of Harry and Ron's irregular behavior, feels strongly that this time there is a greater than normal risk associated with such an expensive and anonymous (as well as highly suspicious) gift. Fearing for Harry's life, she is unable to remain silent. McGonagall agrees with her, though Harry and Ron, blinded to any danger, can see only the broom's dazzling glamour. One does wonder whether, rather than leaving it to Flitwick and Madam Hooch to analyze, the broom ought to be returned to the factory for an inspection. Perhaps McGonagall feels that the factory would be best able to check out its motive spells, but less able to decipher any Dark magic added to it.

{{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Intermediate Spoiler}}
 
Once again, the pocket Sneakoscope is sounding a clue: someone untrustworthy is nearby. But the only ones present are the Trio, plus Crookshanks and Scabbers. We have learned about [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Animagus|Animagi]], but Hermione has categorically ruled out that there is any other registered Animagus. She is actually correct, there are no other "'''registered"''' Animagi. However, Hermione's perhaps excessive concern about rules leads her to the unconscious, and naive, belief that other people, particularly adults, are generally as rule-abiding as she. Hermione never considers that there may be unregistered Animagi. We discover later that the untrustworthy person is Scabbers, who is an unregistered Animagus.
 
Harry reacting only to an enemy's words (Draco's) rather than listening to his friends' advice as Ron suggests, not only shows his immaturity here, but is seen again in later books. In ''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'', when hack journalist, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rita Skeeter,|Rita Skeeter]] publishes a controversial book about Dumbledore, highlighting some dark secrets in his past, and. afterAfter listening to several other peoples' aspersions regarding the late Headmaster, Harry becomes so disappointed in the man he admired and thought he knew that he rejects any other reasonable explanation. Rather than weigh evidence both for and against an argument, he instead becomes fixated on this small portion in Dumbledore's life, ignoring the great man that Albus became. This pattern is also seen when Harry learns about a disappointing episode involving his father, James, during his youth. Harry, for a time, will only focus on this event in his father's life, ignoring others' accounts aboutof the good man James chose to become. Harry has yet to learn that people can not only overcome their past misdeeds, but they often become even greater due to them.▼
 
McGonagall confiscating the Firebolt starts another rift within the Trio. Harry and Ron unfairly blame Hermione for Harry being deprived his new broom. Hermione will be provenis correct that, Siriusgiven Blackwhat sentis it.known Sheabout isits also correct thatsource, it could be jinxed and unsafe to fly on, though it will eventually be found jinx-free. Harry learns later that Sirius sent it only as a gift to his godson. However, Harry and Ron are behaving childishly, and they can only see the Firebolt's loss, rather than the legitimate reasons behind it being confiscated and the real danger such an expensive and anonymous gift could have realistically posed. As a result, neither speaks to Hermione for almost four months, until the Firebolt is returned in mid-April.

The laziness in the Ministry that is commented on in the Analysis section will be found to be endemic, as the series continues. In this case, it is relatively minor, accepting the word of the glib speaker, rather than expending the effort to determine the facts of the matter. It will be found that this same laziness will have harsher effects, as it will be found that Sirius Black had been consigned to Azkaban without trial, and that the crimes for which he had been jailed were in fact committed by another. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Chamber of Secrets/Chapter 2|Earlier,]] we had seen the assumption by the Ministry that Harry was the only possible source of magic for the charm cast by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dobby|Dobby]], and we will see the exact same "punish first, ask questions later only if we are forced to" on the part of the Ministry [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Order of the Phoenix/Chapter 2|later in the series]]. We will see this again when [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Stan Shunpike|Stan Shunpike]] is sent to Azkaban for making an idle boast. This behaviour on the part of the Ministry rings particularly true for adult readers, as it mirrors what many have encountered when trying to work with officialdom in the Muggle world.
▲McGonagall confiscating the Firebolt starts another rift within the Trio. Harry and Ron unfairly blame Hermione for Harry being deprived his new broom.

It should be noted in passing that Professor Trelawney's over-dramatic, repeated prediction that the first to rise from the table would be the first to die [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 27|will be proven false]].
