Reappearing at the maze's edge, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] finds himself overwhelmed by noise, but still clutching the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Triwizard Tournament|Triwizard cup]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cedric Diggory|Cedric]]'s body. Amidst the confusion and shouts that Diggory is dead, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cornelius Fudge|the Minister for Magic]] claims that Cedric is only injured, while [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]] tells Harry to stay put. Dazed, someone lifts Harry and walks him to the Castle. As they enter the school, Harry realizes [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Alastor Moody|Professor Moody]] is guiding him to his office. Once inside, Moody begins asking about [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Voldemort]]'s return. Harry remembers that he must tell Dumbledore that there is a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Death Eaters|Death Eater]] at Hogwarts who put Harry's name in the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Goblet of Fire|Goblet of Fire]]. Harry guesses it is [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Igor Karkaroff|Karkaroff]], but he ran off when the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Dark Mark|Dark Mark]] on his arm flared up. Incredibly, Moody tells Harry that it was he who placed Harry's name in the Goblet. Moody wants to know if Voldemort has forgiven those Death Eaters who failed to search for him, but Harry, still stunned by this revelation, is unable to answer. Harry, disbelieving, listens as Moody recounts how he entered Harry's name in the Goblet, nudged [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rubeus Hagrid|Hagrid]] into showing Harry the dragons, and gave Harry the hint on how to beat them. Moody gave
Harry sees three approaching figures in Moody's [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Foe Glass|Foe-Glass]], although Moody, focused on Harry, fails to notice; he says he will be the Dark Lord's most trusted servant after killing Harry Potter, who the Dark Lord has wanted dead for so long. As he raises his wand to cast the fatal spell, the door behind Harry explodes inwards. Moody is [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Stupefy|Stunned]] and falls to the floor. Professor Dumbledore, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Minerva McGonagall|Professor McGonagall]], and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Professor Snape]] rush in. Dumbledore overrules McGonagall, who wants Harry to go the hospital wing, saying Harry needs to know that this Alastor Moody is an impostor. Snape is sent to fetch truth serum and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Winky|Winky]] from the kitchen, while
Snape arrives with the serum and Winky, and McGonagall returns immediately after. Winky, certain Barty is dead, is hardly reassured when Dumbledore says he is only stunned. Dumbledore pours the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Veritaserum|Veritaserum]], the same potion Snape threatened Harry with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire/Chapter 27|earlier]], into Barty's mouth and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Enervate|resuscitates]] him. Crouch confesses his part in the past year's events. It was [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bartemius Crouch Sr.|Bartemius Crouch, Sr.]] and his wife who instigated Barty Jr.'s escape from [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Azkaban|Azkaban]]. Mrs. Crouch was terminally ill, and as her dying wish, asked Bartemius to free Barty from prison. While visiting their son in prison, she and Barty Jr. switched identities using Polyjuice potion. Mrs. Crouch died soon after (that is who [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sirius Black|Sirius]] saw the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Dementor|Dementors]] burying). Although Barty Jr. was freed, his father kept him at his home concealed under an [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Invisibility Cloak|Invisibility Cloak]] and controlled by the Imperius curse to prevent him returning to Voldemort. Winky, the Crouch's House-elf, helped care for him. When [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bertha Jorkins|Bertha Jorkins]], who worked for Bartemius, unexpectedly visited the Crouch home
Winky prevailed upon Bartemius Crouch Sr. to allow Barty to go to the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Quidditch World Cup|Quidditch World Cup]], hidden under an Invisibility Cloak. However, he managed to escape both Bartemius' and Winky's control, stole a wand (Harry's), and cast [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Morsmordre|the Dark Mark]]. Bartemius, as a result, dismissed Winky and recaptured Barty, returning him to the Crouch home and restraining him more forcefully. Bertha, meanwhile,
Finally, Barty admits

Dòng 17:
The Veritaserum has revealed many truths. And while this chapter solves many mysteries regarding Harry and Voldemort, it also reveals just how vulnerable Harry actually is. The comforting notion throughout the series that Harry is protected as long as he is within Hogwarts's secure walls has been forever dispelled by Barty Crouch's clever deception that allowed him direct access to Harry. From here on, Harry will have difficulty finding a completely safe haven. Now that Voldemort has fully regained his body, he will likely execute another attack on Harry as soon as possible. Voldemort's power will begin spreading as well, quietly and methodically seeping into nearly all wizarding areas, taking hold in key institutions until he has gained control.
Also, Harry's earlier wish to compete as a Triwizard Champion came to fruition, but the experience was far from what he could have imagined. Now
Cornelius Fudge, meanwhile, ineptly attempts to implement damage control, claiming Cedric is not dead, merely injured. While he may be attempting to shield the Diggorys, feeling it would be inappropriate to inform them their son is dead when such a large audience is present, he is also protecting his and the Ministry's public image. This attempt to either spin or minimize bad news reappears in the next chapter.
It is also interesting that Barty Jr., as Professor Moody, taught students how to repel an Imperius curse, which he presumably mastered while detained in his father's house. As reprehensible and evil as Crouch Jr. was, he was apparently a good
As a side note, it is interesting that Jorkin's memory problems seem somewhat similar to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Neville Longbottom|Neville Longbottom]]'s. Is it possible that he could have been likewise charmed as a small child? If he was, why or by whom is unknown. One possibility is that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Augusta Longbottom|his grandmother Augusta]] could have charmed him to prevent what happened to his parents from haunting him. If that is the case, it is also worth noting that Professor McGonagall mentions that Augusta failed her Charms O.W.L. test. Considering Neville's increasingly important role in the later books, it is also possible he may unknowingly hold important information that someone wants to remain concealed, although this is only speculation. It may be that his memory and magical abilities were affected by the extreme trauma in his life, resulting in his development in these areas being stunted. Regardless, Neville constantly struggles to break through an ever-present fog that clouds his memory and affects his magical powers. If his memory has been tampered with, it may be nearly impossible to break the charm without causing permanent damage, as was the case with Bertha Jorkins. ▼

Neville's memory problems will plague him throughout the series, although, with Harry's help, he gradually outgrows this handicap, as well as his magical impairment, to develop into a capable wizard. However, the source of his memory problems is never actually explained, and whether it was from early childhood trauma, a dark spell, or some other cause remains unknown, and it does not play a significant role in the story's eventual outcome.
In considering Fudge's motives for minimizing Cedric's condition, it should be remembered that Fudge is the consummate politician, interested in retaining power for power's sake only. It is only natural that he would "spin" any situation into something less negative to protect his chances for retaining his office. When Harry first returns with Cedric's body, Fudge maintained that Cedric was only injured, not to protect Cedric's parents, but partly to prevent mass panic by the crowd, and
Fudge will later dispute Harry's claims that Voldemort has returned. Again, Fudge is unable to face being known as the Minister who was in power when Voldemort returned, so he must deny, first, that Voldemort has returned, second, that Voldemort killed Cedric, and finally, that Voldemort was involved in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bartemius Crouch Sr.|Mr. Crouch's]] mysterious illness. This refusal to believe, and then to act, will prove important in the next book, resulting in repercussions against Harry, Professor Dumbledore, and Hogwarts. The Ministry's continued inactivity combined with Voldemort's hidden
