Quite. Snape delivered it to Lupin. I'd say that there was an 
agreement which required that Snape prepare and deliver the potion. 
Probably because that way it's more fresh or something like that. That 
night Lupin hadn't yet recieved it (Snape was only just bringing it) -
didn't exactly forget his potion, now did he? There never was any 
obligation for Lupin to get it from Snape, was there?

Possibly Snape was a bit *late* when Lupin saw Peter on the map. And, 
Lupin did leave the map OPEN onto his desk so if Snape came early 
enough with the potion, he'd know where to bring it.

Snape did see where Lupin went (the shrieking Shack where he used to 
transform in his youth) but he did NOT bring the potion. Why not?

And then came that *huge* irresponsibility - what, take the werewolf 
into the castle undrugged? Did Snape plan to do that in order to 
create circumstances where he can kill Lupin so that it can't be 
objected, because it saves the students?
