Much of what Harry says about Malfoy, obviously, but also Hermione's comments on Malfoy, the way Harry is proven wrong (and hence Hermione right) on "how many girls have been princes?", and so on. Oh, and Ron's comment about how it doesn't matter what Dark stuff is smuggled out turns out to be a prediction for the end of that very same chapter.
Wait? How so?
Because it turns out that Malfoy having smuggled out that cursed necklace does in fact matter, quite a bit? Though I don't remember now how he got the necklace out, perhaps he didn't actually smuggle it past Filch...
Trelawney's rambling seems like it should mean something - the "that can't be right" only makes that more likely - but it seems too vague to be very helpful. Unless we figure out who "the questioner" is... Dumbledore? Making the "dark young man" Malfoy? It's a bit of a stretch.
Well, the dark young man is probably Harry. Or Voldemort (but more likely Harry, I think). Malfoy is blonde, I think?
I thought that too, but does it have to be about hair colour? I don't see any interpretation that makes sense with Harry "disliking the questioner".
Also, knave of spades? Is that a common term?
