see what Snape would do?

Draco's mom assumes that Voldemort is getting back at her and her
husband because of Lucuis's failure during OOTP. But what if Voldemort
was really testing Snape? Maybe he wanted to see just how far Snape
would go to help Draco accomplish his task.  Afterall, if some of the
DEs didn't trust Snape, maybe Voldemort wasn't sure either."


"Looking down into her (Narcissa's) tear-staned face, he said slowly, 'He
intends me to do it in the end, I think.  But he is determined that Draco
should try first.  You see, in the unlikely event that Draco succeeds, I
shall be able to remain at Hogwarts a little longer, fulfilling my useful
role as spy."
