So I'm new to this list, so I may be asking about something that's
already been discussed. But how does Harry still have the Marauder's
Map in OotP? In GoF, he gives it to the fake Moody when Moody saves
him from being caught by Snape on the stairs the night that Harry is
listening to the triwizard egg. Moody had obviously seent that the
map revealed him to be Barty Crouch Jr. Then, after Harry has
returned from his encounter with Voldemort and Dumbledore is
interrogating Crouch, he mentions the map. Dumbledore replies
quickly, "Map? What map is this?"
After the map has caused this much trouble and is somewhere among
Crouch's posessions, ti seems unilkely that Dumbledore would have
returned it to Harry. It also seems unlikely that Harry, traumatized
by Cedric's death and Voldemort's return, would have snuck back into
Moody's office to get it. It certainly isn't mentioned anywhere.
So how does Harry have the map?
