The Malfoys did not react well to the prank. Their usual pale faces almost matched the new color of their hair. The fact that he was in Hogwarts and in front of a large crowd barely kept him level headed as Lucius fumed inside. It was a struggle to refrain from pulling out his wand and hexing anyone in sight. Although his hand, curled around the top of the walking stick ready to pull his wand out.

It also didn't help that the poltergeist took this as a cute to make more of a mess. The laughter and large crowd that was getting bigger by the moment did not help the situation at all.

It took several of the staff to clear the corridors and Professor Snape and Professor Dumbledore to lead the humiliated Malfoys away from the scene. That was when Lucius exploded with rage.
