I have always thought of this scene as Alice trying to send Neville a 
message. IMHO, Dumbledore knew from the start that there were two
possibilities to 
defeat Voldemort, Harry and Neville. I think that Dumbledore told both sets
of 
parents that their sons were targets, and the Potters did what they could
and 
the Longbottoms did what they could. We have a good idea of what the Potters

did, but we don't know what the Longbottoms did. 

Batchevra (who thinks that the Longbottoms may have supressed Neville's 
abilities and didn't tell Gran.)

          I have GREAT hope for Neville's parents and I fully believe
something is going on here. Maybe there IS a message but Neville cannot
figure it out and is too embarrassed to ask anyone for help!
