Hermione confronts Lupin about habits she has observed during her classes with him, accusing him of being a werewolf. To the shock of Harry, Ron, and Hermione, Lupin embraces Black like a brother.

Harry and Hermione follow the sounds of Ron's screams and find themselves in an old, boarded-up shack in Hogsmeade, known as the Shrieking Shack.
