"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" Part II Quiz

Answer: an apple

Draco successfully sends a green, Granny Smith apple through the Vanishing Cabinet, to its twin, sitting in Borgin and Burkes. When he casts the incantation to bring the apple back, that also works, but the apple is missing a big chunk, indicating that the cabinets are not working properly. The white bird is the object we next see being sent back and forth, but it is dead when it returns. The black bird is the first object to be sent and return whole and alive.
Draco is played by Tom Felton.

Answer: It has been altered.

The memory is of a conversation that Slughorn and Riddle had about horcruxes. In the altered memory, Riddle asked Slughorn about horcruxes but he refused to discuss them, because they were such dark magic. In the real memory, which Dumbledore desperately needs, Slughorn does answer Riddle's questions.

His shame at having done this with the young student is what caused Slughorn to alter his memory before giving it to Dumbledore. Dumbledore needs Harry to get close to Slughorn, to get the accurate memory. Dumbledore is played by Michael Gambon, Harry by Daniel Radcliffe and Slughorn by Jim Broadbent.

Answer: The Three Broomsticks

Dumbledore has asked Harry to allow Slughorn to 'collect' him, so when Harry sees Slughorn at the pub, he encourages him to join them for a drink. Slughorn has obviously already had a few and makes some comment about how he and The Three Broomsticks go back a long way. Then he makes a lame joke about how he knew it when it was The One Broomstick.

Answer: Lily (Evans) Potter

Slughorn speaks a few times about Harry's mother, fondly remembering what a bright and kind witch she had been. She is seen in a group shot, front and foremost on Slughorn's shelf (where anyone who's anyone aspires to be seen). Later in the movie, Slughorn tells a poignant story of a fish Lily once gave him, which first appeared as a petal from a flower before turning into a fish. The fish disappeared the day that Lily was killed.
Geraldine Somerville played Lily Potter.

Answer: No

Ron drinks the juice, believing it to contain the potion, and performs brilliantly at the game, making some incredible saves which help Gryffindor win the game. Hermione mildly chastises Harry, saying that it is the same as cheating, and Harry shows her the full vial. Hermione laughs when she realizes how Harry has psyched Ron out.
Hermione and Ron are played by Emma Watson and Rupert Grint.

Answer: She kisses Ron.

Lavender has been trying to flirt with Ron all year, but he seems oblivious to her hints. So she tries the more direct approach of throwing herself into his arms and kissing him, in full view of everyone in the common room. This causes Hermione to leave. Later Harry finds Hermione, sitting and crying, with a bunch of birds flying around her head. Lavender and Ron, looking for a private place to do some snogging, happen upon them. Ron says something unwise and Hermione has the birds attack him!
Jessie Cave plays Lavender.

Answer: Ginny Weasley

From the first time Harry sees Ginny (in this film) there is a little spark, that grows with intensity as the movie progresses. He finds himself surprised at his jealousy when he sees Ginny kissing Dean and is nervous when Ron gets protective over the same thing.

When Ron asks what Harry thinks that Dean sees in Ginny, Harry remarks that Ginny has nice skin. Ginny obviously reciprocates Harry's feelings, and has indeed had a crush on him since she first met him. They do exchange a kiss, at one point.

Answer: She touches a cursed necklace and almost dies.

Coming back from a visit to Hogsmeade, Harry, Ron and Hermione are walking behind Katie and her friend, who is trying to dissuade Katie from taking the necklace back to Hogwarts. However Katie has been cursed and feels compelled to take the necklace back and give it to Dumbledore.
Something happens that allows Katie's hand to come into contact with the necklace and she screams, rises in the air as if being crucified and then falls to the ground, where she begins to convulse. When Snape later examines the necklace, he says that Katie is lucky to be alive. She is gone from Hogwarts for some time, and when she returns she has no memory of what happened.
Katie is played by Georgina Leonidas.

Answer: Romilda Vane

At one point in the movie, Hermione points out Romilda to Harry and tells him to be careful because the word was that she was trying to slip him a love potion. Later in the film Harry comes back to find that Ron has eaten a whole box of chocolates, intended for Harry, and is head over heels in love with Romilda, who doesn't even know his name. Ron's moony-eyed performance is very amusing, as he sighs over her and begs Harry to introduce them. Harry takes him to Slughorn for a remedy, getting him to go by telling him that they are going to see Romilda.
Romilda is played by Anna Shaffer.

Answer: with a Bezoar

As Ron lies convulsing, Slughorn looks on in horror. Harry goes through his things, finds a Bezoar and shoves it down Ron's throat. In the series, a Bezoar is something that we first hear about in the first film, when Snape gives his opening lecture to the first year students.

It is a stone that can be found in the stomach of an animal and is presented as a general antidote for most poisons. In "The Half-Blood Prince" we hear Slughorn say to his first years that they will discuss the uses of a Bezoar the next day, so Harry knows that Slughorn had some when he went looking. It is later determined that the poisoned mead, like the cursed necklace, was intended for Dumbledore.
