Harry argues with Umbridge and receives detention
PAGES: 243-246
Harry's frustration boils over during the lesson, and he openly argues with Dolores Umbridge about Lord Voldemort's return. When he questions why they are not being taught practical defense spells, Umbridge dismisses the idea that they need them. Harry's mention of Lord Voldemort enrages Umbridge, leading her to punish him by deducting points from Gryffindor and assigning him detention. Despite warnings from Hermione, Harry continues to challenge Umbridge, who denies Lord Voldemort's return and accuses Harry of spreading lies.
