[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ginny Weasley|Ginny]] are happy together, laughing about the rumors going around school about them; Harry is particularly pleased that the reason everyone is talking about him is something that makes him happy, rather than something to do with Dark magic. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]] seem to be getting close as well. Harry's concerns that his relationship with Ginny could affect his friendship with Ron have largely evaporated.
 
Harry dares not to return to the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Room of Requirement|Room of Requirement]] to recover his [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Potions|Potions]] textbook, thinking that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Snape]] might still want to get his hands on it, and his Potions work is suffering; [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Horace Slughorn|Professor Slughorn]] genially attributes this to his new interest in Ginny. Hermione reveals her theory to Harry regarding the 'Half-Blood Prince'. She has found a write-up of one Eileen Prince, a past Hogwarts student, and suggests that if she was a half-blood, it could have been her.
 
Harry is summoned to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Dumbledore]]'s office. Along the way, he encounters [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sibyll Trelawney|Professor Trelawney]], who is sprawled in the hallway outside the Room of Requirement. She admits that she uses the Room of Requirement to hide her stock of sherry, but she is unable to get in. Apparently, someone is inside, barring others from entering. Trelawney heard a 'whooping' sound from within, which makes Harry believe that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Draco Malfoy|Malfoy]] has finally finished his task. When Trelawney called out to see who was there, everything went dark and she was pushed out into the hall. Harry says she should tell Dumbledore; she seems to like the idea and accompanies him.
 
As they walk, Trelawney recounts the evening Dumbledore hired her; Harry already knows Dumbledore's version, but is fascinated to hear Trelawney's, particularly when she reveals [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Snape]] interrupted them. Realizing it was Snape who passed [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Voldemort]] the information that prompted him to kill his parents, a raging Harry runs off to confront Dumbledore in his office. Dumbledore, however, disarms Harry before he can speak by telling him that he believes he has located a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Horcrux|Horcrux]]. Harry is only momentarily distracted, then confronts Dumbledore about Trelawney.
 
After a fiery exchange, Dumbledore simply states he has reason to trust Snape, even given his skills at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Occlumency|Occlumency]]. Dumbledore exacts a promise from Harry that, if Harry wishes to come with him to retrieve the Horcrux, he must be prepared to follow Dumbledore's orders explicitly. Harry promises, and Dumbledore tells him to fetch his [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Invisibility Cloak|Cloak]] and meet him in the Entrance Hall.
 
Harry retrieves the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Marauder's Map|Marauder's Map]] and his phial of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Felix Felicis|Felix Felicis potion]] from his dorm and hands these to Ron and Hermione, saying he and Dumbledore are leaving the school, but that Draco has finished his task. Although Dumbledore has posted extra guards, if Snape is on the Dark side, he will know what security measures are in place. Harry wants Ron, Hermione, and Ginny to have Felix to protect them, and he wants [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Dumbledore's Army|Dumbledore's Army]] to stand guard ason the Room of Requirement and wellSnape.
 
Harry runs to the Entrance Hall. Puttingand puts on the Cloak at Dumbledore's request. Leaving the school, they head to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hogsmeade|Hogsmeade]]. In answer to Dumbledore's query, Harry says that he can [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Apparation|Apparate]], but he does not have a license yet. Dumbledore says he will guide again. They pass [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/The Three Broomsticks|the Three Broomsticks]], where [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Madam Rosmerta|Madam Rosmerta]] is ejecting a grubby wizard, and head totowards the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hog's Head Inn|Hog's Head]],; butas withnobody nois onewatching aroundthem, they Disapparate before reaching it.
 
== Analysis ==
 
Harry and Ginny are happy, finally realizing they were meant to be together. However, their happiness may be short-lived; the book's mood is becoming markedly darker, especially when Harry learns it was Snape who betrayed his parents. Also, Harry knows that whatever task Draco has been working on appears to be completed. Just what this task is and how it will affect Hogwarts is still unknown, and Harry is exceedingly frustrated that his warnings about Draco's suspicious activities have been repeatedly ignored by Ron and Hermione, and apparently also by Dumbledore. However, it is actually unlikely that Dumbledore has ignored Harry's warnings, rather we suspect andhe is well aware of what is happening within his own school. Harry fails to realize that a Headmaster cannot divulge sensitive information to a student, even Harry. There have already been hints that Dumbledore assigned Snape to investigate Draco's suspicious behavior. And while Harry continues to suspect Snape, Dumbledore here reiterates that he trusts himSnape implicitlycompletely.
 
Many story lines in this book seem to be coming to a rapid peak in this chapter. We finally learn definitively who it was that carried Trelawney's prophecy to Voldemort, and we learn that Draco has apparently completed a major part of his mission. In the midst of this, we also learn that Dumbledore is preparing to leave the school with Harry, in order to hunt down one of Voldemort's Horcruxes. It is because Draco has reached this point that Harry no longer feels that the guards placed by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Order of the Phoenix|the Order of the Phoenix]] will be sufficient. In particular, they will naturally be guarding the perimeter, the known entrances to Hogwarts, while Harry feels that there is a threat possibly coming from Draco in the Room of Requirement. His instructions to Ron and Hermione relate to the threat he perceives from Draco and from Snape.

At this point, we have the clue we need to determine why Harry was unable to get into the Room of Requirement while Draco was there, and Harry has the option of going in and finding out what Draco has been doing. Trelawney reveals that Draco was using the same form of the Room as she had been, in order to hide her sherry. We can quite easily guess, at this point, that the invocation "I need some place to hide my sherry" resulted in the appearance of the junk warehouse, the same one where Harry hid his Potions book in the previous chapter. It is likely that whatever Draco is working on is in that warehouse. The revelations that Harry has received from Trelawney, however, are profound enough that he, and we, don't notice this clue appearing.
It is interesting to note that many "good Snape" theorists base their opinions on the fact that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sibyll Trelawney|Professor Trelawney]] identified [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Professor Snape]] as the intruder the night the prophecy was given. Since we know from Chapter [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Prisoner of Azkaban/Chapter 16|16: Professor Trelawney's Prediction]] in ''Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'' that Trelawny is unaware of her surroundings while in the midst of relaying a true prophecy, she could only have seen Snape before or after she relayed the prophecy to Dumbledore. This goes directly against [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Order of the Phoenix/Chapter 37|Dumbledore's story]] that the intruder only heard the first half of the prophecy before being ejected from the Hog's Head. Furthermore, since we know from Voldemort's actions in ''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'' that he did, until that point, only know the first half of the prophecy, many people assume that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Professor Snape]] either heard all of the prophecy or none of it, and either way, only reported as much of it to Voldemort as Dumbledore ordered him to. This would certainly go a long way towards explaining why Dumbledore trusts Snape. However, it is also necessary to remember that in both the instances we have heard, Trelawney repeated the beginning of the prophecy. Therefore, the critical bit of the prophecy was, in fact, the middle, and so if Snape heard only the end, and carried as much as he had heard to Voldemort, that would be the same as carrying only the beginning.
 
It is interesting to note that, after the publication of this book and before release of ''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'', many "good Snape" theorists basebased their opinions on the fact that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sibyll Trelawney|Professor Trelawney]] identified [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Professor Snape]] as the intruder the night the prophecy was given.

Information we receive later leads us to believe that at the time, Snape was possiblyquite firmly on Voldemort's side, and carried as much of the prophecy as he heard; but then was revolted by how Voldemort put his information to use. In [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows/Chapter 33|''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'']] it is learned that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lily Potter|Lily Evans]] was Snape's great unrequited love, and so when Voldemort decided that the prophecy meant her child (Harry), and she, herself, must die, Snape was, effectively at one stroke, lost to the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Death Eaters|Death Eaters]].
 
We can also infer from Snape's memories in that chapter that Dumbledore was not ignoring Harry's information about Draco and Snape; what he said, always, was "Put that out of your mind." Literally, he was saying, not that the issue was unimportant, but that it was not Harry's concern. In Snape's memories, Dumbledore knew Draco's mission before Snape had told him, and before this book had even opened, though we never know how he learned. (Dumbledore and Snape talk of Draco's mission when Snape has just finished curtailingcontaining the curse which killed Dumbledore's hand; and the damage to his hand is alluded to in chapters 2 and 3 of the book.) So Dumbledore's response to Harry's information is more along the lines of "I already know all about this, and you should not concern yourself with it." Dumbledore has said previously that he is an old man, and old men tend to forget how young men think and feel. Perhaps this dismissal of Harry's concerns is another case of this forgetfulness?
