No, of course not. It went wrong because Millicent is teh ebil and has *gasp* a cat! (I, too, am clearly evil, though I don't commit the heinous crime of having hair that could be mistaken for Athena's.)
Do any of them ever even *mention* their Polyjuiced Adventure after this? The only time I can think of is when Ernie suspects Malfoy (late in the book), and Ron (plus Harry to a lesser extent) is very rude about it. Because obviously it's not Malfoy. After all, they underwent a horrible plot breaking tons of rules, injuring people, and invading privacy to find out that it wasn't, so everyone else should just know.
Don't remember if this came up earlier. The only recipe they know of for Polyjuice is in the Restricted Section. Most uses I can think of for the potion (this one, for instance) are severely unethical, but the Restricted Section is defined to us as being resources for advanced students of DADA. So is Polyjuice Potion considered a Dark Potion? Is making it a Dark Art? Is it making or using it illegal? Of course, it's distinctly possible that the book's there because of *other* potions in it, but in that case, why would Snape have mentioned this book particularly? Surely this recipe would also be in other books.
