Deleted Scenes:

Dumbledore asks his pupils to welcome Durmstrang and Beauxbatons students. All the Hogwarts students then start to sing the school song. A Durmstrang student asks a girl to go with him to the Yule Ball. She says yes, and two of their friends make gestures in the background. Harry tries to speak with Cho Chang, but as she is constantly surrounded by friends, he doesn't get the opportunity. Flitwick introduces the Weird Sisters at the Yule Ball. The lead singer speaks with the audience and then starts the first song. Karkaroff tells Snape about the mark of his arm. Snape ignores him and removes house points from Fawcet and Stebbins, who briefly appear in the scene. Snape doesn't care about what Karkaroff has to say. Mr. Crouch and Harry are speaking. Mad-Eye appears and Barty quickly leaves. The trio speak about the death of Mr. Crouch. Ron thinks that Fudge will prevent the story from leaking out to the public. Hermione believes his death, Harry's scar burning, and the Dark Mark at the Quidditch World Cup are related. She recommends Harry goes to visit Dumbledore.
• The trio speak about what Karkaroff was showing Snape on his arm. Hermione asks Harry which potion ingredients Snape accused him of stealing and realizes they are the ingredients needed for the Polyjuice Potion.
