After finishing her conversation with Gellert, Rhea used Apparition to go to Diagon Alley. Being in an especially good mood today, she stopped by Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment to buy a few daily necessities to add some fun for Bidodo. She visited Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor to buy various flavors of ice cream—strawberry, honey, mustard, and more. At the wizard joke shop, she bought a hat that told jokes whenever worn, which she thought would be perfect for Bidodo. At the Diagon Alley stationery shop, she picked up plenty of ink, parchment, and quills, thinking they would make just the right gift for her teacher. At the Leaky Cauldron, she ordered a mug of beer for her teacher, tricking the landlord by saying it was for her father, as she wanted to see how the alcohol here differed from the one she had secretly tasted in her previous life. After taking a quiet sip, she realized that stealing a little taste turned out to be just the same, and she didn't like the flavor at all. Leaving the pub, Rhea headed to a Muggle supermarket, intending to make Gypsy witch soup pasta for her teacher today.
After finishing her shopping, seeing that it was still early and remembering that her teacher had classes this afternoon, Rhea directly used Apparition to go to the Hogwarts Dungeon to help her teacher brew the Potions needed by the school and St. Mungo's.
When Snape returned after finishing his class, he saw Rhea busy brewing Potions.
