Turn to Page 458, The Egg and the Eye. Today’s lesson is called Auror Harry.

The chapter begins with Harry preparing a nighttime trip to the Prefect’s bathroom, at the suggestion of Cedric. Harry hides under his cloak and uses the Marauder’s Map to avoid detection. He enjoys the bubble bath for a moment before attempting to egg, which screeches all the same. Moaning Myrtle reveals herself and shares what Cedric did with the egg. Harry opens the egg under the water and hears singing, which he deduces might mean there are Merpeople under the Black Lake, where they will hide something he cares about for the second task - and where Harry has to recover it.

After bemoaning the need to swim and hold his breath, Harry sets out to return to the Common Room when he spots Bartemius Crouch on the Marauder’s Map. He goes to investigate why the missing Crouch would be wandering Hogwarts late at night when he drops his egg, which alerts Filch, Snape, and Moody. Filch worries about Peeves, Snape about someone having broken into his office, and Moody about Harry beneath the cloak and, later, the amazing Marauder’s Map. He is particularly startled when Harry tells him he saw Barty Crouch on the map just a few moments ago. Moody asks to borrow the map, and suggests Harry consider a future career as an Auror.
