No: HPFGUIDX 68087

Gosh, there are so *many* YES! Moments in this series; it's hard to
choose!

CoS: Freeing Dobby. (Movie contamination alert ~ While we aren't
specifically told what Malfoy was going to do in the book, I like that
in the movie, he was going to use the killing curse on Harry and Dobby
stopped him. Go Dobby!)

PoA: Definitely Hermione slapping Draco. Also, for me, was Harry's
Patronus charging down Malfoy, and Professor McGonagall going postal
on them. And lastly, Harry issuing the Patronus that saves himself and
everyone else.

GoF: Bouncing Ferret Boy! The First Task. Ron's realization that Harry
hadn't put in own name into the Goblet of Fire. Harry standing up to
"die upright like his father" in the graveyard. Priori Incantatum.

OoP: Petunia's Howler. The All-England Best-Kept Surburban Lawn
Competition. Harry's discussion with Vernon about the news. Dumbledore
at Harry's hearing. Harry standing up to Umbridge about Voldemort in
class. Neville standing up to Bellatrix. Finally we see a reason why
Neville is in Griffindor! Go Neville! (Anyone else think we'll see a
dramatic improvement in Neville's abilities when he gets a new
wand?)Harry's "welcoming committee" at the end of term. Moody
threatening Vernon! (He!)

Petunia: They guard the wizard prison, Azkaban. (whoops much,
Petunia!?)

Zacharias Smith: Oh *please*. I don't think Expelliarmus is exactly
going to help save us against You-Know-Who, do you?

Harry: I've used it against him. It saved my life last June. But if
you think it's beneath you, you can leave.

~ 

Fudge: So, you intend to take on Dawlish, Shackkebolt, Dolores, and
myself single-handed, do you Dumbledore?

Dumbledore: Merlin's beard, no. Not unless you are foolish enough to
force me to.

~

Umbridge: So...you think it amusing to turn a school corridor into a
swamp, do you?

Fred: Pretty amusing, yeah.

Fred: Give her hell from us, Peeves.

Malfoy: You're dead, Potter.
Harry: Funny, you'd think I'd have stopped walking around...
Malfoy: I'm going to make you pay for what you've done to my father...
Harry: Well, I'm terrified now. I s'pose Lord Voldemort's just a warm
up act compared to you three.
Malfoy: You wait. You can't land my father in prison...
Harry: I thought I just had.
Snape: What are you doing, Potter?
Harry: I'm trying to decide what curse to use on Malfoy, Sir.

~

McGonagall: I should have made my meaning plainer. He has achieved
high marks in all Defense Against the Dark Arts tests set by a
competent teacher.
Umbridge: This boy has as much chance of becoming an Auror as
Dumbledor has of ever returning to this school.
McGonagall: A very good chance, then.
