Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (novel)/Awesome
- All hail Frank Bryce, the only Muggle to mock Voldemort towards his face. True, he did die, but the old man had balls of steel
- "Lord is it? Well, I don't think much of your manners, my Lord. Face me like a man, why don't you?!"
- Cedric, Fleur, Krum, and Harry in the first task of the Triwizard Tournament.
- Not only the first task, in the second task, Harry stubbornly refuses to leave other prisoners; he comes in last but is awarded second place for his "moral fiber", as Fred and George put it, and more importantly wins respect from the other competitors.
- Before It Got Worse, Harry and Cedric deciding that it didn't really matter which one of them won the tournament, instead just doing it for the honor of Hogwarts. In hindsight, this may not have been such a good idea.
- Draco Malfoy, the amazing bouncing ferret.
- Hermione's revenge on Rita Skeeter.
- Dumbledore blasting through fake Moody's door.
- "At that moment, Harry fully understood for the first time why people said Dumbledore was the only wizard Voldemort had ever feared."
- Snape reading the trashy Witch Weekly article out loud in front of the entire Potions class. Also doubles as Snape's Crowning Moment of Funny, thanks to this line:
 |
Harry Potter's Secret Heartache... Dear dear, Potter, what's ailing you now? |
 |
- Also, Snape shoving his Dark Mark in Cornelius Fudge's face, and giving him a lecture that basically amounts to "Here you go, you ignorant fuck: proof that Voldemort is back!"
- And Fudge is still in denial.
