Laura:

But if Snape really was Neville's worst fear, and if Neville had to 
make that fear laughable to make the boggart go away, what else was 
Remus supposed to do?  He couldn't tell Neville to get another worst 
fear, could he?  And if Snape is surprised to find that students he 
bullies fear him, then he's not as smart as we thought he was.
