George prepared for the Basilisk’s return while focusing on mastering Sectumsempra, then spent Valentine’s Day and practiced the spell in the Forbidden Forest.

• Hagrid told Harry, Ron, Hermione, and George that Aragog lived in the Forbidden Forest and had a mate named Mopsus, leading them to conclude that Hagrid could not have released the creature attacking students.
