The dinner passed easily.  Orders were taken by circling waiters and delivered on white plates with some kind of sparkling juice.  Draco and the others had clearly learned from the interaction with Jennifer that their role tonight was to make Granger look wonderful, and so they did.  If they were introduced to someone they smiled and spoke overflowing praise of Granger’s character, studiousness, and friendship.  Usually it was Potter or one of the Weasleys tasked with this assignment, but even Pansy had an opportunity to give her thoughts when they were introduced to Jennifer’s mother.  The woman had no idea what she was getting into, walking into a conversation with Pansy about the virtues of a well done party.
