It doesn't make sense for him to cast the FiendFyre. That's far too cruel for a marginally redeemed Draco. There would be no way, socially or legally, Draco could recover from that act.

But if they said "We'll figure it out later", then I think they are in trouble. That is a very difficult plot point to resolve after the fact.
Geoff:
Looking at IMDB's cast list for HP8, Josh Herdman is listed as Gregory
Goyle but I can't see Jamie Waylett there for Crabbe.
He was the one who got into trouble with drugs a year or so ago; whether
this has a bearing on it or not, I don't know.
I agree about Ginny. When I saw HBP for the first time, my immediate
thought was that they had dug themselves into a hole over the Potions Book.
I'm not a great Ginny fan and I felt they'd ramped up her part too far anyway
as in the pointless scene where the Burrow is attacked.
