I don't have the book here @ work - but I am sure
someone can check - my recollection is that he said
that he turned the cup into a portkey which would
bring Harry Potter to his Master - the sentence can be
read 2 different ways, depending on the phrase you
emphasize - it could mean EITHER (a) he turned it into
a portkey, and said portkey would bring him to
voldemort, or (b) he turned the cup, which already was
a portkey, into a portkey that would bring him to
voldemort instead of to the front of the maze. And
since we've seen other little typos inthe books
elsewhere, the fact that there's a comma in this
sentence whch potentially changes the entire meaning
of the sentence and thus the pivotal action by Barty
Crouch, has to be taken with a little grain of salt.
And on an unrelated note, the woman in the office next
to me just came in & admired by Chass Game Snowglobe -
her 11 year old AND her husband have read all the
books, she's reading book 2 to her 7 year old
daughter, and has read 1-3 herself - I am lending her
my GoF Books on Tape (hi penny!) which I finished on
my way home from my last day @ my old job last friday
because she doesn't have time to read the actual book
but wants to know what happened. And then, I'll give her DD/DS,
PoU/StNE & ASA
