It's another zero, then, for Potter as he continually messes up in Snape's class and even has to start Remedial Potions.

Snape's double agent arc continues seamlessly in the fourth book, as he continues to threaten and mock students like Neville and Hermione (most certainly on Dumbledore's orders). Harry learns of Snape's former Death Eater identity, but we are just not going to go there *again* with suspecting Snape of being the bad guy!
