Chapter 5: An Excess of Phlegm
Harry and Dumbledore go into the Burrow to see Mrs Weasley, who is talking with Nymphadora Tonks. While Mrs Weasley is feeding Harry, Mr Weasley comes home after working very late confiscating counterfeit spells and objects.
Harry goes to bed, only to be woken quite soon by Ron and Hermione. Ginny, Ron's younger sister, comes in shortly after, annoyed and frustrated at Fleur Delacour, who is staying with them and is engaged to marry Bill Weasley, Ron's older brother. Ginny and the rest of the Weasleys would rather Bill marry Tonks.
At breakfast, Harry reveals that he is going to be having private lessons with Dumbledore this year at school. A little later, owls arrive carrying Harry, Ron, and Hermione's grades from the previous school year, the O.W.L.s. Harry does pretty well but doesn't get an "Outstanding" in Potions, which Snape had said would mean he can't continue, and therefore, not become an Auror. Ron also does well and Hermione is slightly disappointed to only get an "Exceeds Expectations" at Defense Against the Dark Arts, despite an "Outstanding" for every other subject.
