IMO there is no missing 3rd time.  In the graveyard in GOF (book isn't handy 
at the moment) it says it was the 3rd time that he felt the bliss of having 
his mind wiped clear of thought (or words to that effect.)  It also says 
something very much like this when he first encounters the Veela.  The Veela Effect 
is IMO seems to be a milder Imperius.. no illegal and easier to resist. It was 
making them do things that they wouldn't have normally done. That would have 
been the 1st time, the classroom with Moody would have been 2nd,  graveyard 
3rd.
