Why Newt Scamander Was on the Marauder's Map (Easter Egg) - Harry Potter Theory



Why didn't Fred and George give the map to Ron?

Others believe that the twins never even noticed him, as they mentioned to Harry that they didn't need the map anymore as they already knew the place by heart, so by the time Ron arrived, they didn't use the map anymore and thus never saw him sleeping with Peter Pettigrew.

Did Fred and George know who the marauders were?

It's never stated in-canon that they're aware of their status as the Marauders, but nonetheless, we can deduce that that they respect them as members of the Order and as extended de facto family. I think they respected Remus and Sirius for sure.

How did the Weasleys afford the shop?

The twins bet that Ireland would win the cup, but that Viktor Krum would catch the golden snitch. This turned out to be the result, and the two won a good sum. The catch is that Bagman paid them in Leprechaun gold, which is worthless. Thus, it is Harry that gave the twins the money so they could fund their store.

Can you see animagus on the Marauders map?

Unless Fred and George were watching Ron sleep on the map (which would be creepy), they wouldn't have noticed Pettigrew. It's only possible to see a human changed in his animagus form if you know the person is one. Therefore: Remus saw Peter on the map, he also saw Sirius. Harry DIDN'T see either.

Is the Marauders map explained in the movie?

From their knowledge of the map and their nicknames, one can figure out who the map's creators are. But it's a wonder why the film didn't include the explanation of the map -- along with the background of the Marauders -- in its climax, just like the book did.

How did Barty Crouch Jr get the Marauders map?

Problem is he only appears as “Barty Crouch” not as Jr. which is not part of his name, but a way of separating him from his father. And Moody (Crouch Junior) actually stumbles in answering it, which leads him discovering the map. Harry's mind was in the egg and the fact about remaining hidden from Snape and Filch.

How did Percy Find Scabbers?

It seems unlikely that a shop would waste time catching a common rat, rather than breeding their own. The Magical Menagerie employee referred to Scabbers as a "common" or "garden rat." It seems most likely that that's exactly where the Weasleys found him: in their garden.

Why didn't Lupin see two Harry's on the map?

Lupin was simply not paying attention. Yeah, it's pretty unlikely, but imagine that he spots the original Harry/Ron/Hermione heading down to Hagrid's Hut. They disappear inside (I don't think the Map shows the interior?).
