Some evil gives speed to these creatures. The trackers come over a hill and pause as they gaze across the plains below Very dangerous we are over short distances.Ĭamera pans over the orcs running across the plains, and then swings to the Three Hunters giving chase. Aragorn suddenly bends down to pick up an Elven brooch from the ground. The Three Hunters run across rocks and plains, with Aragorn in the lead, and Legolas and Gimli trailing behind. no food… no rest… and no sign of our quarry but what bare rock can tell. He then tears it off his cloak and drops it onto the ground.ĪRAGORN is lying with his eyes closed and ear pressed to the ground, listening for the sound of footsteps Pippin struggles to reach his Elven brooch with his teeth. The Uruk-hai are carrying MERRY and PIPPIN over the fields of Rohan GOLLUM scrambles off with the hobbits following (taking the rope off GOLLUM) You will lead us to the Black Gate. He was trying to trick us! We let him go he’ll throttle us into our sleep! SAM jerks strongly at the rope as Gollum tries to get away and Gollum falls to the ground Yes… on the preciouss… on the preciousss. We swears on, on the precioussss! Gollum gollum We swears to serve the master of the precioussss. There is no promise you make that I can trust. We be very nice to hobbits, you be nice to us. Quiet you! It’s hopeless! Every orc in Mordor will hear this racket! Let’s tie him up and leave him! It burns! It burns us! Elves twisted it! Take it off! He is then tied at the neck with Sam’s elvish rope and half-dragged along even as he cries and wails.

Slowly, Gollum loosens his grip on Sam and as the latter disentangles himself, Gollum wails. You’ve seen it before, haven’t you, Gollum! Release him or I’ll cut your throat! Frodo then unsheathes Sting and holds it to Gollum’s throat. Gollum then turns around and bits Sam on the shoulder, wriggles around and clasps his arms around Sam’s neck and legs around his waist in a death grip. Sam grabs hold of Gollum again and tears him away from Frodo. Gollum’s cheeks puff with exertion as he struggles with Frodo, his huge eyes fixed on the ring. Gollum now jumps on top of Frodo and tries to reach for the ring even as Frodo grabs his hands and tries to push him away. Sam tries to grab at him but is knocked away. As Frodo falls back, the chain and ring around his neck is revealed and Gollum jumps straight for the ring. Amidst the struggle, Gollum wriggles loose and leaps onto Frodo. Suddenly the hobbits spring up, grab hold of Gollum’s arms and pull him down. (sneaking up on the hobbits) Those thieves! Those filthy little thieves! Wheeere isssit? Wheeere isssit? They stole it from us. We are going in circles.Īh! What’s that ‘orrid stink? I’ll warrant there’s a nasty bog nearby. They continue trekking through difficult terrain, often huddling underneath their cloaks.Ĭause we’ve been here before. Nothing ever dampens your spirits does it Sam? I don’t usually hold to foreign food, but this elvish stuff is not bad. Suddenly FRODO feels and spies the EYE zooming in on him. He didn’t mean for a lot of things to happen Sam. I don’t think Gandalf meant for us to come this way. It’s the one place we are trying to get to. The one place in Middle Earth we don’t want to see any closer. They look into the distance at the Mountain of Fire. Just then FRODO wakens from the nightmareįRODO and SAM climb over rocky terrain. The battling pair then falls into an enormous cavern and plunges into the water. They continue to plunge at great speed, sometimes with GANDALF clinging to the horn of the demon. As they continue to plunge into the depths, GANDALF hacks away at the BALROG even as it crashes and bounces off the walls. GANDALF falls after the BALROG and grabs hold of his sword Glamdring on his way down. GANDALF loses his grip and falls into the chasm He gets a brief grasp on the edge of the bridge. It seems they have won, but as he turns away, the tail of the whip catches GANDALF’s ankle and pulls him down. The demon draws a whip of fire, steps onto the bridge, and it gives way, dropping the BALROG into the chasm. GANDALF slams his staff on the bridge, and a flash of white light drives the BALROG back. Go back to the shadow! You… SHALL NOT… PASS! I am a servant of the secret fire, wielder of the flame of Arnor! Dark fire shall not avail you, Flame of Udun!īALROG draws a flaming sword and swings at GANDALF, but the wizard parries the blow. Voices are heard from the Misty Mountains
