In September 1992, Ronald Weasley used the spell to try and curse Draco Malfoy for calling Hermione Granger a "Mudblood". However, he had a broken wand and the spell bounced back at him instead. The Slytherins howled in laughter when he began coughing up slugs. Harry Potter and Hermione took Ron to Rubeus Hagrid and he had to wait until it eventually stopped.[1]
