But everything he is thinking there is true, madorganization!  Harry 
DOES have more right to know what's going on than either Ron or 
Hermione do.  There is nothing wrong with feeling entitled when you 
genuinely ARE entitled, which Harry most definitely is.  If he did 
not think that way it would be silly and unrealistic, as well as 
untrue.
