On my MacBook (I would assume that the Pro would use a similar set up) the plastic hinge piece is held in place by little aluminum loops essentially. If they hinge is not securely held, then the key won't go back on correctly.

yes i see how it works. it clicks in but it wont lay straight like the others. it makes me sad. :(
 
sorry for the bad pic...im in my school library and i just took this with my iphone. you can kind of see how it is slanted when it has been clicked in...really bugging me.
