Joann:
I've been wondering about this myself. One of the(many)interviews I read recently said they felt the needed this scene. What does the scene accomplish?

1. Remus and Tonks-the fact that they are a couple
2. Harry and Ginny-almost first kiss and Ginny putting herself in danger for Harry
3. Mr. Weasley telling Harry about the vanishing cabinet. 
4. A sense of danger around the corner at all times.

It was a good scene. I liked it. They could have had Remus and Tonks at the burrow in the beginning, and H/G almost kiss at Hogwarts. I'm thinking the action was the main reason. 

It was strange however, that it was snowing at Hogwarts, but not at the burrow, and warm enough for Ginny to run around outside in a robe. I wonder about the choice to put her in a robe. 

Were there any interviews where someone stated why they thought they needed that scene?

who noticed on her second viewing yesterday Slughorn mentioning the bezoar in front of Harry and then putting it away in his trunk.
