This probably isn't a good enough idea but what about Dumbledore, the committee and Hagrid. If The committee is thinking about the execution, Hagrid is (at least) wishing that Buckbeak will escape, and Dumbledore is already thinking about ways to get Beaky out of this situation then that might work. We have evidence in other books that Dumbledore does seem to know what might happen, what has happened (even when he wasn't their etc).

And this is just my interpretation, but I distinctly got the impression that the Dumbledore in the hut at the execution KNEW what was going on with the time turner even though it is *3 hours before* it is used (obviously it is begin used at that time but strictly it is still 3 hours until HH go back in time). I almost got the feeling that when "Harry could still here Dumbledore's voice talking form within the cabin" Dumbledore was distinctly stalling the committee and McNair. Also when he comes out and exclaims "how extraordinary" with a "not of amusement in his voice". Plus he knows (even at that time) that Hermione ahs the time turner so if Dumbledore was already planning this (although possibly not exactly the way it turned out, that may have been some quick thinking on his part) then that would back up your theory.

No go and poke massive flaming branches at me!!! LOL!

HOLLYDAZE!!!
