Okay...stay with me on this.

The night Voldemort killed the Potters and tried to kill Harry, apparently he turned into...that spirit-like thing that possessed Quirrell, correct?

When he comes into a body in GoF, he has his wand back! We know that it's his, because it's the brother wand of Harry's. Also, Harry's parents come out of the wand.

So...how did Voldemort get his wand back? Did someone get to the Potter's House before a "good guy"? (That is, Hagrid, Sirius, Dumbledore, or anyone from the Ministry.)

Don't you think that someone would have snapped his wand if they had gotten there first? Were they too occupied with getting Harry to safety? Or were they convinced that Voldemort wasn't coming back? Apparently Dumbledore knew that he would.

I guess the only explanation is that Peter Pettigrew or another Death Eater was there. Pretty much the only candidates would be Peter or Snape (if he is helping Voldemort). All the other DEs didn't even know Voldemort was back until he was in his body in GoF!

What do you all think?
