the morning after the flying car incident
The Howler from Mrs. Weasley
At breakfast in the Great Hall, Ron receives a Howler from his mother, Molly Weasley. The enchanted letter screams at him in Mrs. Weasley's magically amplified voice, expressing her fury and worry about the stolen car and the danger he and Harry put themselves in. The Howler also reveals that Arthur Weasley is facing an inquiry at work because of the incident. Ron is mortified as the entire hall hears the scolding, and Harry feels guilty for causing trouble for the Weasley family. The event serves as a public punishment and a reminder of the consequences of their reckless actions, though it also brings a sense of closure to the incident.
