Del replies :

1. Typical Harry or not, he should not have looked in that Pensieve,
especially since he didn't know how to get out. I don't mind too much
Harry being reckless, but I DO mind him acting stupid.

2. We are never given a reason to doubt that Montague was actually
really found stuffed in a toilet at the moment Draco said. Unless you
suggest that Snape found Montague first (he'd been missing for 2 weeks
if I remember well), and then stuffed him himself in that toilet,
before giving his instructions to Draco ? Could be, but I really doubt it.
