Spoiler space?  Who wants a space full of spoilers?

Well, all right, then...


The bad guy in Scooby-Doo would have gotten away with it if it hadn't 
been for those medling kids...and their dog too.

Sam-I-Am convinced his friend to eat the green eggs and ham.

The wolf couldn't blow down the third little pig's house.

Quirrel was the one after the stone, not Snape.

Darth Vader was Luke's father.

Marilyn Monroe is living in Cleveland with her retired-plumber 
husband and 34 cats.  (Got that out of a tabloid.)

Ok, enough of that.

Ginger guesses:  

Having taken a year of it and gotten a 320% on her exam, perhaps 
Hermione realized all she had to do was read the book, and 
regurgitate the answers they wanted to hear.  So she read the books 
for light reading, and sat the exam.  

Worked for me in English classes where the teacher would give *their* 
interpretation of a book and, on the exam, ask "what do you think the 
author meant by...?" meaning, of course, "what do I think..."  If you 
just spit back what they had said, they gave you credit.  If you gave 
what you actually thought, you were wrong.  I'm sure Hermione had no 
trouble figuring that out.

Ginger:  Oy!  She got us again!  Good catch.

Ginger, off to think on the 7th Hor-thingie.
