Dòng 17:
Also, Neville, who is rarely, if ever, singled out for being good at anything, is extremely flattered and grateful when Moody gives him the Herbology book after being told by Professor Sprout that Neville has an aptitude for this subject. Harry thinks that Moody's gesture is similar to what Professor Lupin would have done.
Hermione, meanwhile, is undergoing struggles within herself. She strongly objects to Moody demonstrating the Unforgivable Curses, even though Dumbledore has given him permission to do so, Dumbledore believing the impending conflict with Voldemort and his Death Eaters warrants the students understanding exactly what these curses are and how to counter them. But to Hermione's thinking, the Ministry's rules should outweigh Dumbledore's authority (and good sense). However, even when Moody gives her permission to skip the demonstration, Hermione is suddenly unwilling to be the only one who leaves, perhaps fearing her peers' disdain more than the Ministry's might.
Snape's behavior here is revealing. Rather than the disdain and disrespect he usually heaps on whoever is the current Defensive Arts teacher, a position Snape has long coveted but is repeatedly denied, he appears to show cautious fear and maintains a respectful distance from the crusty, former [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Auror|Auror]]. Moody's earlier sarcastic remark regarding Snape being an "old friend" hints at an unresolved history between them, most likely relating to Snape's [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Death Eaters|Death Eater]] past. Typically, Snape vents his frustration on his students.▼

Also, Sirius, concerned about Harry's safety, is returning to England with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Buckbeak|Buckbeak]], although Harry rightly fears he may have endangered Sirius by writing to him about his scar hurting. And though Sirius' concern and devotion for his godson is commendable and shows how much he loves Harry, his decision seems rather reckless; just how Sirius can help Harry while remaining a hunted fugitive is uncertain. This all causes Harry even more stress and turmoil and could even put him at risk.▼

Finally, Hermione advocating rights for [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/House Elf|House-elves]] (that they actually do not want) formally begins in this chapter. We can expect to see S.P.E.W. (or the House-Elf Liberation Front as Ron later refers to it) appear in subsequent books. And though it will become a smaller subplot, Hermione continues to believe, quite correctly, that House-elves are a slave caste and should be freed. She fails to consider, however, that freedom must be carefully orchestrated if Elves are to survive and thrive without discrimination or retribution within the Wizarding world. Simply turning loose what most wizards consider an inferior race (even more so than other non-human magical folk) would create extreme hardship, just as Winky is likely experiencing, now that she is without a master. Even the more resourceful and adaptable Dobby has likely had a difficult time. It will take a huge effort to realign both the general Wizarding population's attitude and the House-elves' thinking to accept House-elves as equal and free agents.
