Half Blood PrinceThe World Cup is over, the world premieres have come and gone, and now it's finally time to start saying goodbye to "Harry Potter."

Tune into MTV Movies Blog all week long for our series of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2" primers, where we'll look back on each film in the series and highlight the details you need to remember going into the grand finale. For a full recap on the previous films, head here!

After the jump, we break down some integral moments from "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" that end up being very important come the series' conclusion.

How To Make A Horcrux
"Order of the Phoenix" also marks the first introduction to the concept of a horcrux, and from here on out it ends up being horcruxes that are the major focal point of the series. In addition to delving into Voldemort's memories, Harry finds out the awful truth that Professor Slughorn was the man who told Tom Riddle that in order to create a horcrux, he had to cause his soul to split by killing someone. Well, we all know how that turned out.

Draco Disarms Dumbledore
Though he was commanded by Lord Voldemort to do it at the beginning of "Half-Blood Prince," Draco Malfoy is not the person to kill Albus Dumbledore. However, he is the one to disarm the Hogwarts headmaster of his wand. It seemed trivial at the time, but it certainly comes to be very important as "Part 2" climaxes.

"Severus, Please"
Dumbledore's final words to Snape are some of the most important that his character has ever said. Harry viewed them as a plea for help to the former Potions professor, but J.K. Rowling would not be as brilliant an author as she is if it was as easy as that.
