At this point, Hermione is clearly awareknows ofabout Lupin's "furry little problem", as it will later be referred to, presumably asby ahaving result of applyingapplied what she had learned while writing theSnape's werewolf report demanded by Snapeassignment. We have gathered that she was the only student to write that report, so it is nothardly surprising that neither Harry nor Ron knowsunderstands why Lupin looks ill. Hermione's estrangement from Harry and Ron is important at this pointhere, as it is this estrangement that prevents Hermioneher from explaining this to Harry and Ron.
 
Knowing that Lupin is a werewolf, and finding the effectseeing the Boggart's haseffect on Harry, leaves usa with something of asmall contradiction. Clearly the Boggart, in Dementor form, is havinghas the same magical effect on Harry that a real Dementor would, leaving Harry despairing and bringing horrible, buried memories to the front of Harry's mind. And yet, when the Boggart takesassumes the silvery orb form, representing Lupin's fear of the full moon, Lupin's greatest fear, it doeshas notno affect on him. One can only surmise that this is due to something similar to thea "placebo effect": if you believe something will have an effect onaffect you, it quite often does. To this end, the Boggart-as-Dementor is believable, as being something that could be present in the classroom, and soit hasaffects anHarry, effectwho onis Harrystill unable to handle his emotions well, because he believes that it will;. theThe Boggart-as-full-moon inside a classroom is notunbelievable, believableand therefore it has no effect on Lupin, who, as aan fulladult, moonbetter cannotunderstands existwhat insideBoggarts aactually classroomare, andallowing beinghim unbelievable,to hascope nowith effectthem ondifferently Lupinthan Harry.
 
Neville is actually blameless for losing the password list—Crookshanks stole it at Sirius Black's request. Black will use it two nights hence to enter Gryffindor tower. That event causes some confusion, however, as Black apparently attacks Ron, rather than Harry, his supposed target; it is actually the departed Scabbers, who slept in Ron's bed, that Black is hunting. It is worth noting, however, that having Neville lose list is a well-made plot choice by the author; Neville has always been characterized as having memory problems, particularly with passwords, so his losing the list perfectly fits his character.
 
We learn that Lupin attended school with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/James Potter|Harry's father]] and Sirius Black, and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peter Pettigrew|"little Peter Pettigrew"]] was one of their friends. We may also recall that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Snape]] was in school at the same time — [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]] mentioned that James saved Snape's life. While it is yet impossible to recognize James, Sirius, Pettigrew, and Lupin together as a group, we should be aware that they knew each other. It is a little curious that Harry is more interested in talking with Lupin about Sirius rather than his father, but Sirius seems to be a more immediate concern for him.
 
We see a recurring pattern throughout the story: whenever someone wonders how Hermione can be taking so many classes, there is promptly some interruption that ends further speculation. It is a tribute to the author's skill that the interruptions, rather than being contrived, seem like normal occurrences, or as normal as they can be in the situation. Scabbers' "death" is such an occurrence, interrupting Harry's musing about the topic. While this event is extraordinary, it is not entirely unexpected. Like Ron and, to a lesser extent, Harry, we can see that Crookshanks has been targeting Scabbers since his introduction to the story. Thus Scabbers' apparent demise, seemingly at Crookshanks' claws, while somewhat surprising, is still a natural progression, making the interruption seem quite natural.
