For some reason this exchange makes me snicker:

"You don't say anything," said Scrimgeour. "Perhaps you already know what
the Snitch contains?"

"No," said Harry, still wondering how he could appear to touch the Snitch
without really doing so. If only he knew Legilimency, really knew it, and could
read Hermione's mind; he could practically hear her brain whirring beside him.

"Take it," said Scrimgeour quietly.

Harry met the minister's yellow eyes and knew he had no option but to
obey. He held out his hand, and Scrimgeour leaned forward again and placed
the Snitch, slowly and deliberately, into Harry's palm. Nothing happened. As
Harry's fingers closed around the Snitch, its tired wings fluttered and were
still. Scrimgeour, Ron, and Hermione continued to gaze avidly at the
now partially
concealed ball, as if still hoping it might transform in some way.

"That was dramatic," said Harry coolly.
