(DISCLAIMER: I am *NOT* "dissing" POA -- It's my favorite book in the
series so far. I just think these are interesting questions.)

-- When the boggart turns into the moon, why doesn't Lupin start
transforming?

-- Lupin says that werewolves are a danger only to humans; so why is
Hagrid worried that Lupin ate Buckbeak?

-- How can it be that on that critical night Lupin forgot to take his
potion, *and* "left the Map running" (so that Snape saw it), *and*
suggested manacling *himself* to Pettigrew? Does the full moon also
erode his Better Judgement?

-- In the scene in Snape's office he says to Lupin "Don't you think
[Harry] got [the Map] *straight from the manufacturers*?!" The insinuation
being that Lupin gave Harry the Map himself. But how could Snape come to
such a conclusion unless he's aware of the Fab Four's secret nicknames,
and if he is, didn't he ever wonder where those nicknames came from?

-- Does anyone else wonder if Cho's bevavior toward Harry during the
Quidditch match (tailing him, coquettishly blocking him, etc.) is a grim
forshadowing of what their romantic relationship will be like?
