You know, the ending to the first Harry Potter book doesn't make sense.

Harry wasn't really a hero. If he'd just stayed put and minded his own business, what would have happened? Quirrel would have stayed fixated in front of the mirror until Dumbledore arrived and disarmed him. Maybe he would've had a decent shot at Voldemort at the same time. Nobody would have ended up in the hospital wing.

And for this, Gryffindor wins the cup. Pathetic. You know, Snape has a point about favoritism.
