Now and then, I wonder if there is a better way to handle Mad-Eye's 
confession to Harry before Mad-Eye tries to kill Harry.  As it 
stands, it is a classic Blundering-Villian-Who-Talks-Too-Much Scene.

But what else would work?  I haven't been able to think up anything 
better.  Mad-Eye needs to confirm that Voldemort is back, kill Harry, 
and get away without apparating.  So maybe he takes Harry to his 
office, revives and interrogates him, stuns him, picks him up and 
walks out with both of them under Mad-Eye's invisibility cloak?  I 
haven't figured out how Dumbledore would rescue Harry, though.  The 
details of how Mad-Eye worked for Voldemort could be done with Truth 
Serum.  

Anyway, I find the scene an intriguing challenge because it's hard to 
think of anything that works better.
