Correct Answer: someone


Solution : The correct option to fill in the blank is the third option.

Explanation: In the context of the sentence, the word in the blank is referring to a person who is gazing at Harry through the bars. The pronoun "someone" is the most appropriate choice to indicate an unspecified person. The other options do not convey the meaning of an individual person in this context.

So, the correct answer is someone.
