I hate to go back to this topic again... but I thought of a #4 to add 
to the following list... :)  

#4.  If I remember correctly, while Harry is taking anti-dementor 
lessons from Lupin, he also sheds a few tears when he is saying how 
his father was trying to give his mother and himself time to run for 
it... Harry pretended to be doing up his shoe laces to hide his 
emotions from Lupin.

Sorry, just thought of that one today!
