As the students walk inside, Ron obsesses over [Viktor Krum], while Hermione, obviously tense, makes snide comments about the attitudes of the [Beauxbatons] students. Meanwhile, Filch puts out extra chairs in the [Great Hall] and [Dumbledore] continues to welcome the guests.

[Dumbledore] begins the feast, which features some unfamiliar foreign foods. Meanwhile a girl comes over from the [Beauxbatons] table who manages to distract Ron from [Krum], as she seems to be a [veela]. Meanwhile Ludo Bagman and [Barty Crouch] arrive and take seats as well.

As the feast ends, [Dumbledore] gets up to introduce [Crouch] and [Bagman], as well, of course, to open the [Triwizard Tournament]. He introduces the [Goblet of Fire], into which students will have twenty-four hours to drop their names if they wish to enter the tournament, and are also over the age of seventeen.

On the way out of the [Great Hall], Fred and George scheme about getting across the [Age Line], [Karkaroff] fawns over [Viktor Krum] almost as much as the [Hogwarts] students, and the entire [Drumstrang] group freezes when Karkaroff notices Harry Potter and his [scar], until Moody arrives and pushes them along.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione start their Saturday morning by wandering down to the [Great Hall] and the [Goblet of Fire]. Soon after, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan arrive having taken [Aging Potion] - but when Fred and George step across the [Age Line] to put their names in the Goblet, they are launched across the room and sprout long, white beards.

In the [Great Hall], students gossip about who has entered the [Triwizard Tournament], including [Warrington] and Cedric Diggory. [Angelina Johnson] then walks in, just having put her name in as well, exciting the [Gryffindors].

Back in the [entrance hall], the [Beauxbatons] students file in and drop their names in the [Goblet of Fire] while Hermione runs up to her room to grab her [S.P.E.W.] badges, intent on offering one to Hagrid.
