OotP FAQ Question: What is Snape's job in the Order?
OotP FAQ Answer: Many theories there, but no answers. Most agree he
is spying on Voldemort, given what he told Harry during Occlumency
lessons about his own capacity to resist Voldemort's ability to
detect people who are lying to him.
OotP Text Answer: (Chapter 26, 'Seen and Unforseen'; American
Hardcover Page 591)
"That is just as well, Potter," said Snape coldly, "because you
are neither special nor important, and it is not up to you to find
out what the Dark Lord is saying to his Death Eaters."
"No - that's your job, isn't it?" Harry shot at him.
He had not meant to say it; it had burst out of him in temper.
For a long moment they stared at each other, Harry convinced he had
gone too far. But there was a curious, almost satisfied expression
on Snape's face when he answered.
"Yes, Potter," he said, his eyes glinting. That is my job. Now,
if you are ready, we will start again."
OotP FAQ Question: When did Harry get the Marauder's Map back? It was
in Crouch!Moody's possession in GoF!
OotP FAQ Answer: Dumbledore tends to give Harry back his things, even
if they can be used for violating school rules. For example, he gave
him back his invisibility cape in PS. And this is something very
similar: an object that used to belong to his father. However it was
done, it was off-page, but while it might have been better to show it
as it happened, it is really a minor point.

HPFreak7: How did Harry get the Marauder's Map back, when Crouch Jr.
had it last?
JK Rowling replies -> Loads of people have asked me this, I knew I
should have shown Harry nipping into Moody's empty office and getting
it back, but I assumed you'd all know that's what he did. Sorry!
That just about answered it for me, what do you think?
