Kourtney held back a gasp as the professor dumped her cauldron over Auggie's head. What was he thinking making a smart-aleck comment like that?! She cast a look at August and frowned. Not a good move at all.

Before she moved on to the next step, she cleaned all of the rest of her equipment, including her mortar and pestle, by casting Scourgify. Once that was completed, Kourtney rose from her seat again and approached the football shaped plant, pulling on her gloves as she did so. Removing three leaves from the plant, she returned to her seat and dropped them into the mortar.

She used her pestle to crush one of the leaves. Crush...crush...crush...Finally, after a few minutes, she noticed a bit of acid seeping from the leaf. Selecting a dropper, she sucked up the acid, hovered the dropper over her cauldron and squeezed it, allowing the three drops to fall into the solution.

She then picked up her spoon and stirred the mixture three times in a counter-clockwise direction.
