Just Eat Gilligan: Difference between revisions

*** Though there is the point that Voldemort runs a fairly EVIL group, which has mixed loyalties, a near amatuer can take out the best Magician given surprise or some other advantage (Draco vs Dumbledore, Harry vs whoever) means that theoratically any of the Death Eaters could take out Voldemort, and the fact that Voldemort's ace in the hole, immortality, merely means he is reduced to a wandering spirit instead of outright killed... You must realize that Voldemort rules through FEAR and by keeping an image of supremacy and invulnerability. So... no, he CAN'T ask one of his minions to destroy his arch-nemesis for him. One, it makes him look bad. Two, it makes his minion look TOO GOOD...

*** Also, the prophecy in a round about way said that only one could kill the other, so he most likely decided not to waste the manpower doing something he believed to be pointless anyway.

** In the first book, when Harry, Ron and Hermione discovered that Quirrell planned to steal the Philosopher's Stone, rather than trying to stop him themselves, why didn't they tell the school's teachers or staff about Quirrel's plans? Granted, they tried to inform Dumbledore about it and were told he wasn't at the school at that moment. But there were so many other teachers and members of the school's staff who were far more capable than three first-year students and would have handled the situation much better.

*** They did try to tell McGonagall, but she refused to listen and just insisted that the stone was protected well enough. Still, they might have tried harder or tried other teachers.

**** On the other hand, the judges allowed him to continue after he went over the time limit in the water challenge. If they had stuck to the rules of the challenge, Harry would have been disqualified, and Voldemort would have stayed dead.

* In ''[[Stationery Voyagers]]'', Alhox has a legitimate excuse (his [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|head trauma]]) for [[Devil in Plain Sight|not immediately figuring out]] what the Mystery Wanderer [[Obviously Evil|so plainly is]]. The other characters [[Horrible Judge of Character|really have no excuse]] for being [[Unwitting Pawn|so easily manipulated]]. Still, they begin to have suspicions about him. However, the most Pinkata does is say: "I have a feeling he's a really bad man." Had she voiced her "[[Cassandra Truth|crazier]]" suspicion that he was {{spoiler|Melchar}}, Alhox would have put two and two together - and a third of the series' entire plot would immediately disintegrate. All this trouble because the [[Only Sane Man|Only Sane Woman]] [[Cannot Spit It Out]].
