If all of this is true, then why the argument with SS & DD where 
SS tells DD he wants out? 
   
Hagrid tells Harry that he saw Snape and Dumbledore at the edge 
of the Forbidden Forest having an argument and Snape saying in a 
sense 'I can't do it, I want out'. Dumbledore KNEW that Snape was 
held under the unbreakable vow to 'do what Draco cannot'. Someone 
that powerful knowing what was in store would DEFINITELY have a 
plan. Call me crazy, but I think the argument was Snape telling 
Dumbledore about the vow and he didn't want to have to die if he 
broke the curse, and he didn't want to kill Dumbledore, yet if he 
didn't he would die. 
   
Snape and Dumbledore know Draco is still a teen and knew that he 
would not be able to kill Dumbledore, also that if someone else 
besides Snape did it, Snape would die for breaking the vow. Who 
do you think DD would want to go down on record as being killed 
by, SS/Draco? 
   
Also, DD knows EVERY detail that goes on at Hogwarts, he knew 
every step the students take, how could he miss Draco 
dissappearing SO many times and not know what was going on? I 
think he even had SS asking questions, like when HP was listening 
in on them and told DD 'hey, SS is bad' and in turn DD saying 'SS 
is trustworthy' 
   
I think it was ALL PLANNED!
