I do not get the whole Hermione-lies-to-get-them-out-of-trouble thing
in the troll incident.  The story she tells is very close to what
actually happened; the only significant difference is that she makes
out that she went looking for the troll on purpose.  (Also that she
doesn't mention that H & R inadvertently locked her in with the
troll--but I'm not sure she even knows that.)  The rest of the
story--they heard the troll and rescued her--is in fact what happened.
So what did she do to save their skins with McGonagall?

Well, Because she made it look like she was the one who had snuck off to do 
something silly/stupid it made the other 2 look better.  Do you remember the 
real reason they had to go look for her?  They went because Ron felt badly 
after saying some rather rude things about her, and she was crying.  She 
saved their skins by making them heroes, rather than boys who didn't want to 
be in trouble for scaring her off and being the 'cause' of her being eaten 
by a troll.
