Hermione knows what Lupin's "furry little problem" is, as it will later be referred to, presumably by having applied what she learned while working on Snape's werewolf assignment. We have gathered that she was the only student to write that report, so it is hardly surprising that neither Harry nor Ron understands why Lupin often looks ill. Hermione's estrangement from Harry and Ron is important here, as that prevents her from explaining this to Harry and Ron. She finally reveals this to them during a climatic scene in the Shrieking Shack, later in the story.
Knowing that Lupin is a Werewolf, and seeing the Boggart's effect on Harry, leaves a small contradiction. Clearly the Boggart, in Dementor form, has the same magical effect on Harry that a real Dementor would, leaving Harry despairing and bringing horrible, buried memories to mind. And yet, when the Boggart assumes the silvery orb form, representing Lupin's fear of the full moon, it has no affect on him.

Neville is technically 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.

Lupin is apparently torn over Sirius Black's potential fate. Not only do we learn that Lupin attended school with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/James Potter|Harry's father]], but also
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 these 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 ever
