1. Long ago,
in the early years of the Second Age...
Copy !req
2. the great Elven-smiths
forged Rings of Power.
Copy !req
3. Nine for mortal Men.
Copy !req
4. Seven for the Dwarf-lords.
Copy !req
5. Three for the tall Elf-kings.
Copy !req
6. But then, the Dark Lord
learned the craft of ring making...
Copy !req
7. and made the Master Ring.
Copy !req
8. The One Ring to rule them all.
Copy !req
9. With the One Ring, Middle-earth is his,
and he cannot be overcome.
Copy !req
10. As the last alliance of Men and Elves
fell beneath his power...
Copy !req
11. he did not notice the heroic shadow
who slipped in.
Copy !req
12. It was Prince lsildur...
Copy !req
13. of the mighty kings
from across the sea...
Copy !req
14. who took the Ring.
Copy !req
15. But because he did not destroy it,
the spirit of the Dark Lord lived on...
Copy !req
16. and began to take shape,
and grow again.
Copy !req
17. But the Ring had a will of its own,
and a way of slipping from one hand...
Copy !req
18. to be found by another, so that it
might at last get back to its master.
Copy !req
19. And there the Ring lay,
at the bottom of the great river Anduin...
Copy !req
20. for thousands of years.
Copy !req
21. During those years...
Copy !req
22. the Dark Lord captured the nine rings
that were made for Men...
Copy !req
23. and turned their owners
into the Ringwraiths:
Copy !req
24. Terrible shadows
under his great shadow...
Copy !req
25. who roamed the world,
searching for the One Ring.
Copy !req
26. In time, the Ring was found.
Copy !req
27. Two friends were fishing
in the Great River one day.
Copy !req
28. Give us that, Deagol, my love.
Why, Smeagoi?
Copy !req
29. Because it's my birthday,
my iove, and I wants it.
Copy !req
30. I have already given you
more than I couid afford.
Copy !req
31. - I found this, and I'm going to keep it!
- Oh?
Copy !req
32. Are you indeed, my love?
Copy !req
33. He used the Ring
for thieving, and to find out secrets.
Copy !req
34. His own people began to despise
the wretched creature...
Copy !req
35. and to call him Gollum.
Copy !req
36. Tortured and driven by the Ring,
he hid in dark caves...
Copy !req
37. under deep mountains.
Copy !req
38. But the Ring
slipped off Gollum.s finger too.
Copy !req
39. And so it was that Bilbo found it,
during his travels with the Dwarves.
Copy !req
40. Thief, Baggins. Thief!
Copy !req
41. it stole our precious, our precious...
Copy !req
42. Our birthday present.
Copy !req
43. Thief, Baggins. We hates it forever.
We hates it forever.
Copy !req
44. It was Bilbo Baggins, the Hobbit...
Copy !req
45. who took the Ring back to the Shire,
his home.
Copy !req
46. Years later...
Copy !req
47. Gandalf the Wizard visited Bilbo
on his going-away birthday party.
Copy !req
48. I don't know half of you
half as weil as I should like...
Copy !req
49. and I like less than half of you
half as weil as you deserve.
Copy !req
50. Well, heh, heh, Frodo, I can see
your Uncle Bilbo hasn't changed much.
Copy !req
51. And though 1 1 1 years
is far too short a time...
Copy !req
52. to live among such admirable Bagginses
and Boffinses, Grubbs...
Copy !req
53. Chubbs, Bracegirdies, Goodbodies...
Copy !req
54. - ... Bolgers, Hornblowers and Proudfoots—
- Proudfeet.
Copy !req
55. —I regret to announce
that this is the end.
Copy !req
56. I'm going away. I'm leaving.
Copy !req
57. Now.
Copy !req
58. Goodbye.
Copy !req
59. Where did he go?
Copy !req
60. Gandaif.
Copy !req
61. Have you left the Ring for Frodo,
as we agreed?
Copy !req
62. it's mine, I tell you. It's my own.
Copy !req
63. My precious.
Copy !req
64. it's mine now, and I shali keep it.
I won't give my precious away, I tell you.
Copy !req
65. Do not say that again.
Copy !req
66. Give it to Frodo, and I will look after him.
Copy !req
67. All right.
Copy !req
68. I wili.
Copy !req
69. Seventeen years
passed sleepily in the Shire.
Copy !req
70. All right, ail right, just a minute.
Copy !req
71. Gandaif.
Copy !req
72. Greetings, Frodo.
Copy !req
73. Gandaif, it's really you.
Oh, it's been so long.
Copy !req
74. Seventeen years, since Bilbo left.
You iook the same as ever, Frodo.
Copy !req
75. - You look older, Gandalf.
- Oh, I've been on a long journey.
Copy !req
76. It's the Ring, isn't it?
Bilbo's funny magic ring.
Copy !req
77. You always used to look like that
when you talked about it.
Copy !req
78. Bilbo's funny ring...
Copy !req
79. that makes you invisible?
Copy !req
80. - Give it to me, Frodo.
- Give you the Ring?
Copy !req
81. For a moment oniy.
Copy !req
82. Can you see any markings on it?
Copy !req
83. There are none.
it's quite a plain ring, really.
Copy !req
84. Well, then, look.
Copy !req
85. Wait.
Copy !req
86. Do you desire it so much already?
Copy !req
87. No, but why ruin it?
Copy !req
88. Because it is altogether evil.
Copy !req
89. it will corrupt and destroy
anyone who wears it...
Copy !req
90. untii he passes
into the world of shadows...
Copy !req
91. under the power of Sauron,
the Dark Lord of Mordor.
Copy !req
92. Not Bilbo?
Copy !req
93. You are the one who has the Ring now.
Copy !req
94. it's...
Copy !req
95. - it's not even warm.
- No.
Copy !req
96. Not even a dragon's fire
could harm that Ring.
Copy !req
97. One Ring to rule them all
Copy !req
98. One Ring to find them
Copy !req
99. One Ring to bring them all
And in the darkness bind them
Copy !req
100. I wish it need not have happened
in my time.
Copy !req
101. So do I.
Copy !req
102. The enemy still lacks one thing
to give him strength of knowledge...
Copy !req
103. to break ali resistance,
and cover all the lands in darkness.
Copy !req
104. He lacks the One Ring.
Copy !req
105. But maybe he doesn't
know that it was found.
Copy !req
106. He knows, Frodo.
Copy !req
107. Gollum left his cave
to follow the Ring himself...
Copy !req
108. and the Dark Lord caught him
in Mordor.
Copy !req
109. The Dark Lord knows what ring it was
Gollum found, and how he lost it again.
Copy !req
110. And he has heard of Hobbits at last,
and of the Shire.
Copy !req
111. And he even has a name to think about.
Copy !req
112. The name of Baggins.
Copy !req
113. Because of Golium.
Copy !req
114. Oh, Gandalf, what am I to do?
Copy !req
115. What a pity that Bilbo didn't kill
that vile creature when he had the chance.
Copy !req
116. Yes, it was pity.
Copy !req
117. Pity and mercy.
Copy !req
118. And now, Frodo...
Copy !req
119. the decision lies with you.
Copy !req
120. What wili you do with the One Ring?
Copy !req
121. I'll give it to you, Gandalf.
Copy !req
122. You're wise and powerful.
What, will you not—
Copy !req
123. No. Do not tempt me.
Copy !req
124. I would wish to turn it to good,
and it cannot be used so.
Copy !req
125. Meaning to be kind, I wouid become
as terrible as the Dark Lord himself.
Copy !req
126. Do not tempt me.
Copy !req
127. I shall have such need of strength
so soon.
Copy !req
128. Then I suppose I must keep the Ring
and guard it.
Copy !req
129. And I ought to
go away somewhere, alone.
Copy !req
130. But they won't— They won't
bother the Shire if the Ring isn't here.
Copy !req
131. My dear Frodo...
Copy !req
132. I am afraid you are right.
Copy !req
133. You'll have to go and leave the name
of Baggins behind you.
Copy !req
134. That name is no longer safe.
Copy !req
135. Your new traveling name shall be...
Copy !req
136. Mr. Underhill.
Copy !req
137. What have you heard,
and why did you listen?
Copy !req
138. Mr. Frodo, sir, don't let him hurt me, sir!
Copy !req
139. Don't let him turn me
into anything unnatural.
Copy !req
140. - Well?
- Answer him, Sam.
Copy !req
141. Well, sir, I heard a deal
that I didn't rightiy understand...
Copy !req
142. about an enemy and rings,
and about Elves, sir.
Copy !req
143. Why, I would dearly love to see Elves,
Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
144. And so you shall, Sam.
Copy !req
145. So you shall. Indeed, you should go
to the Elves first, to Rivendell.
Copy !req
146. Tell everyone you are moving away...
Copy !req
147. to live in Buckleberry, with those cousins
of yours, Pippin and Merry.
Copy !req
148. However you manage it, do it soon,
by your birthday at the latest.
Copy !req
149. I should be back by then.
Copy !req
150. I must go south,
to consult with the wizard Aruman...
Copy !req
151. the head of my order.
Be careful, Frodo.
Copy !req
152. Me go, sir? Me go and see the Elves?
Copy !req
153. Oh, my.
Copy !req
154. I have come for your aid,
Saruman the White, in troubled times.
Copy !req
155. The Nine are abroad.
Darkness approaches, the Black Riders.
Copy !req
156. is that all the news
you have for me, then?
Copy !req
157. is that not enough?
Sauron is moving at iast.
Copy !req
158. We can deal with Sauron ourselves,
Gandaif. You and I.
Copy !req
159. One way or another.
Copy !req
160. What talk is this?
What are you saying, Saruman?
Copy !req
161. it is time for us to choose.
Copy !req
162. A new age is upon us.
A new power is rising.
Copy !req
163. Nothing that Men or Eives or Wizards
can do will avail against it.
Copy !req
164. its enemies are utterly doomed,
but its friends, ah...
Copy !req
165. You are saying that we should join
with Mordor? With him?
Copy !req
166. Does that displease you?
Where is the Ring, Gandalf?
Copy !req
167. Why do the Black Riders
search for it in the Shire?
Copy !req
168. Have you hidden it there?
Copy !req
169. Would you rather see
the Dark Lord have it...
Copy !req
170. or Saruman of many colors?
Copy !req
171. Neither of you will have it.
Copy !req
172. There is a third choice.
Copy !req
173. it is to remain here...
Copy !req
174. untii you tell me
where the Ring may be found.
Copy !req
175. Saruman, if you do this...
Copy !req
176. if you delay me here,
Sauron will surely get it then.
Copy !req
177. Then he will know his good servants...
Copy !req
178. and his enemies.
Copy !req
179. Saruman!
Copy !req
180. I don't feel right going off
without Gandalf, Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
181. I wish we could've waited, that I do.
Copy !req
182. So do I, Sam, but he said to leave
as soon as we could.
Copy !req
183. And Merry and Pippin insisted on coming
with us as far as Bree, for the fun of it.
Copy !req
184. There's someone coming up ahead,
Mr. Frodo. I can hear a horse.
Copy !req
185. Good. I'm tired of iooking
at my cousins all day.
Copy !req
186. I think we should get off the road.
I don't want to be seen leaving the Shire.
Copy !req
187. - But it might be Gandalf.
- Then we'll surprise him. Hurry.
Copy !req
188. - We're going with you, Frodo.
- With me?
Copy !req
189. But how do you—? Sam.
Copy !req
190. - But you gave your word.
- They already knew so much, Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
191. Sam didn't tell us about the Ring, Frodo.
Copy !req
192. I saw Bilbo use it once,
before he went away...
Copy !req
193. to hide from the Sackville-Bagginses.
Copy !req
194. And after that,
Pippin and I kept on the lookout...
Copy !req
195. and we followed you.
We asked questions everywhere.
Copy !req
196. And we even wormed
a few things out of Gandalf.
Copy !req
197. And you spied on me.
And Sam helped you.
Copy !req
198. - And we spied on you.
- But we meant no wrong to you, Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
199. Don't you remember
what Mr. Gandalf said?
Copy !req
200. "Take someone that you can trust,"
he said.
Copy !req
201. - it doesn't seem that I can trust anyone.
- it all depends on what you want.
Copy !req
202. You can trust us to stick to you
through thick and thin, to the bitter end.
Copy !req
203. But you cannot trust us
to let you face trouble aione...
Copy !req
204. and go off without a word.
We're your friends, Frodo.
Copy !req
205. Heh. Bless you, you deceitful scoundrels.
Copy !req
206. Will we be stopping
at Bree tonight, Mr. Frodo?
Copy !req
207. I think so, Sam.
Copy !req
208. Well, we ali need a fireside and a bath,
and a proper night's sleep in a real bed.
Copy !req
209. Oh, I do wish Gandalf were with us.
Copy !req
210. Maybe he'll be at the inn
when we get there.
Copy !req
211. Maybe.
Copy !req
212. I think I'll go out for a sniff of air.
Copy !req
213. Mind yourselves. Don't forget,
you're supposed to be escaping in secret.
Copy !req
214. - Oh, mind yourself. Don't get lost.
- Be careful, Merry.
Copy !req
215. Quiet. Quiet, all.
Copy !req
216. We have some visitors with us tonight,
all the way from the Shire.
Copy !req
217. They came ail the way from the Shire.
Copy !req
218. - What was your name again, sir?
- Mr. Underhill.
Copy !req
219. Ha, Mr. Underhill and his party.
Copy !req
220. A song!
Copy !req
221. A song from the Shire!
Copy !req
222. The Shire!
Copy !req
223. Yes, Mr. Underhill, sing us a Shire song.
Copy !req
224. Well, a short one, then.
Copy !req
225. Who's there?
Copy !req
226. Who's there?
Copy !req
227. Look at him.
Copy !req
228. How little!
Copy !req
229. So small.
Copy !req
230. He's a cute one.
Copy !req
231. Look at him go.
Copy !req
232. Where did he go?
Where is he?
Copy !req
233. What's he done?
Copy !req
234. What's going on here?
Copy !req
235. Take your magic tricks back to the Shire.
Copy !req
236. What's this place coming to,
I'd like to know?
Copy !req
237. Take them back on out of here!
Copy !req
238. Well, Mr. Underhill...
Copy !req
239. frightening my customers and breaking
up my crocks with your acrobatics.
Copy !req
240. Very sorry. It was quite unintentional,
a most unfortunate accident.
Copy !req
241. Well, you have put your foot in it
this time.
Copy !req
242. - Who are you?
- I am called Strider.
Copy !req
243. - Everyone knows me here.
- Weli, we don't.
Copy !req
244. You've been very careless so far,
Mr. Frodo Baggins.
Copy !req
245. My name is Mr. Underhill.
Copy !req
246. After your performance tonight,
it won't matter what you call yourself.
Copy !req
247. The Black Riders will know
who you are by morning.
Copy !req
248. They already know what you bear.
Copy !req
249. Who are you really?
Copy !req
250. I am Gandalf's friend.
He asked me to watch out for you.
Copy !req
251. Gandaif? Have you seen him?
Where is he?
Copy !req
252. I do not know.
Copy !req
253. We were supposed to meet him here,
but I've had no word, no message.
Copy !req
254. it is the first time
that I've ever feared for him.
Copy !req
255. Then we will have to go on
by ourselves tomorrow.
Copy !req
256. To Rivendell?
Copy !req
257. You'd never get there. The Black Riders
are watching the road night and day.
Copy !req
258. They'll come on you in the wild,
in some dark place, where there's no help.
Copy !req
259. I know the wild country.
Copy !req
260. I can take you to Rivendell
by paths that are seldom trodden.
Copy !req
261. - Will you have me?
- With your leave, Mr. Frodo, I'd say no.
Copy !req
262. This Strider, he says be more careful.
I say, let's start with him.
Copy !req
263. How do we know he's from Gandalf?
Copy !req
264. More likeiy, he's a play-acting spy,
working for...
Copy !req
265. - For them.
- I don't know, Sam.
Copy !req
266. I think one of the enemy's servants...
Copy !req
267. would, well, seem fairer and feel fouler,
if you understand.
Copy !req
268. While I look foul and feel fair, is that it?
Copy !req
269. Well, no, I meant—
Frodo. Frodo!
Copy !req
270. Frodo, I've seen them!
I've seen them, Frodo.
Copy !req
271. I've seen them. Black Riders.
Copy !req
272. - My man found him lying in the street.
- There were two of them.
Copy !req
273. They were hissing to each other.
I seemed to be drawn towards them.
Copy !req
274. Well, you do need looking after,
all of you.
Copy !req
275. There's been strange folk about for days.
Copy !req
276. That ranger...
Copy !req
277. Strider, coming and going and—
Copy !req
278. Strider.
Copy !req
279. - They've come from Mordor.
- Save us!
Copy !req
280. They won't troubie you once I'm gone.
Strider came to offer me his help.
Copy !req
281. Well, you know
your own business, maybe...
Copy !req
282. but in your place, I wouldn't take up
with a ranger out of the wild.
Copy !req
283. They have no choice.
Copy !req
284. There is no one else for them
except a fat innkeeper...
Copy !req
285. who only remembers his name
because people shout it at him all day.
Copy !req
286. I'll do what I can to help, Mr. Baggins.
Mr. Underhili.
Copy !req
287. - I'm no hero, but I'll do what I can.
- Keep watch tonight, you and your foik.
Copy !req
288. There is a hill called Weathertop...
Copy !req
289. about halfway between here
and Rivendeil.
Copy !req
290. We wiil make for it tomorrow.
So will Gandalf, if he can.
Copy !req
291. I still don't know if we can trust him,
Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
292. I said you have no choice, Sam.
Copy !req
293. Because, if I wanted the Ring
for myself...
Copy !req
294. I could have it now.
Copy !req
295. My name is Aragorn, son of Arathorn.
Copy !req
296. if by life or death I can save you, I wiil.
Copy !req
297. How long will we be
in these marshes, Aragorn?
Copy !req
298. At least two days.
Copy !req
299. I'm being eaten aiive.
Copy !req
300. What do these things live on
when they can't get Hobbit?
Copy !req
301. Easy there, Bill. Easy, slow.
Copy !req
302. That is Weathertop.
Copy !req
303. We shall be there by nightfall, if we set
a good pace and don't stop for lunch.
Copy !req
304. - This goes on ionger, I'li become a wraith.
- Don't speak of such things.
Copy !req
305. Aragorn. Aragorn.
Copy !req
306. And Beren was a mortal man...
Copy !req
307. but Luthien Tinuviel
was the daughter of a king of Elves.
Copy !req
308. She was the fairest maiden that has ever
been among all the children of this world.
Copy !req
309. Yet she chose to be mortal, for him.
Copy !req
310. And when he died, she followed him.
Copy !req
311. And so he was her doom...
Copy !req
312. but he was her iove, as weli.
Copy !req
313. I thought I saw something.
Hmm?
Copy !req
314. Maybe just shadows
in the moonlight, I don't know.
Copy !req
315. Stand close to the fire. Make a circie.
Copy !req
316. What's that?
Shh!
Copy !req
317. No!
Copy !req
318. The Ring, Frodo! Take off the Ring.
Copy !req
319. Cold. It's so cold.
Copy !req
320. - Like a poisoned icicle.
- it is the coid of their world, Frodo.
Copy !req
321. When you put on the Ring,
you entered the world of the Black Riders.
Copy !req
322. Gandaif said not to.
Copy !req
323. Why is it so misty here?
I can't see very well.
Copy !req
324. What's the matter with him?
it was only a little wound.
Copy !req
325. it was an evii knife that struck him, Sam.
Copy !req
326. I think that a piece broke off in the wound
and is working inward.
Copy !req
327. if it reaches his heart...
Copy !req
328. Couldn't you do anything?
Copy !req
329. We must get to Rivendell very soon.
Copy !req
330. He can't go no further.
Copy !req
331. He must. Do you want them to take him?
Copy !req
332. Wait, listen.
Copy !req
333. Ah! Legolas.
Copy !req
334. Yes, Sam, that's an elf.
Copy !req
335. So there has been
no word of Gandalf in Rivendell?
Copy !req
336. - No message at all?
- None.
Copy !req
337. My iord Eirond has sent every rider
he could spare to seek for you...
Copy !req
338. knowing that you bore a great burden
without guidance.
Copy !req
339. I have been on the road for nine days.
Copy !req
340. Well, Mr. Frodo has been on the road
a lot longer than that.
Copy !req
341. And he's sick and he needs a rest.
Copy !req
342. Just for a while.
Copy !req
343. Sam...
Copy !req
344. no resting can help
your Mr. Frodo now.
Copy !req
345. Only the hands of Elrond in Rivendell
can do that.
Copy !req
346. There are five Black Riders
close behind us...
Copy !req
347. and we may well find
the other four waiting at the ford.
Copy !req
348. if we lose even a little time,
we lose, Frodo, the Ring...
Copy !req
349. and Middie-earth.
Copy !req
350. Do you understand me, Sam?
Copy !req
351. There is the ford of Rivendell.
Copy !req
352. Fly, fly. The enemy is upon us.
Copy !req
353. Come back. To Mordor we will take you.
Copy !req
354. Gandaif!
Copy !req
355. Back, come back.
To Mordor we'll take you.
Copy !req
356. Come back, come back.
Copy !req
357. To Mordor we'll take you.
Copy !req
358. Go back!
Copy !req
359. Run, you fool, run!
Copy !req
360. The Ring, the Ring.
Copy !req
361. Go back to the iand of Mordor,
and follow me no more.
Copy !req
362. Come back. Come back.
Copy !req
363. To Mordor we will take you.
Copy !req
364. Come back. Come back.
Copy !req
365. Go back!
Copy !req
366. The Ring.
Copy !req
367. The Ring.
Copy !req
368. By all the Shire,
you shall have neither the Ring, nor me.
Copy !req
369. No. No, never. Veriiy, I come.
Copy !req
370. I give it unto you.
Copy !req
371. - No, never. Gandalf!
- Yes.
Copy !req
372. I am here,
and you are iucky to be here, too...
Copy !req
373. after all the absurd things you've done
since you've left home.
Copy !req
374. Where's Sam?
And are the others all right?
Copy !req
375. They've hardly ieft your side
for three days.
Copy !req
376. Three days?
Copy !req
377. What happened at the ford?
it ail seems so dim, somehow.
Copy !req
378. You were beginning to fade,
my remarkable friend.
Copy !req
379. The knifepoint had almost
worked its way to your heart.
Copy !req
380. Oh, I didn't know. Would I have...
Copy !req
381. You would have become like them...
Copy !req
382. one of the Ringwraiths...
Copy !req
383. the servants of the Dark Lord...
Copy !req
384. if you had not resisted to the last.
Copy !req
385. The river, it rose up against them.
Copy !req
386. it is Elrond's river.
Copy !req
387. This is his house,
and it was Elrond himself who healed you.
Copy !req
388. if I may say so,
I added a few touches of my own.
Copy !req
389. The white horses and so on.
if you noticed.
Copy !req
390. - Then that is the end of the Black Riders?
- Not so long as the Ring itself exists.
Copy !req
391. They will fly back to their master in Mordor,
empty and crippled...
Copy !req
392. untii they find new shapes to wear
and new beasts to ride.
Copy !req
393. We have beaten them,
just for a while, Frodo.
Copy !req
394. - That's sort of a relief.
- I wish that were the truth, Frodo.
Copy !req
395. I'm afraid we have a new
and closer problem at hand.
Copy !req
396. You have not asked me why
I was late getting back to the Shire.
Copy !req
397. I forgot.
Copy !req
398. When I was certain that yours was indeed
the Master Ring...
Copy !req
399. I rode at once to lsengard.
Copy !req
400. And I thought...
Copy !req
401. that if anyone could know
what was best to do with the One Ring...
Copy !req
402. it would surely be Saruman the White.
Copy !req
403. The great eagle, Gwaihir...
Copy !req
404. came in answer to my cali,
and bore me away.
Copy !req
405. Saruman's never paid
enough attention to animals.
Copy !req
406. - But if he should seize the Ring—
- He will make himself...
Copy !req
407. the master of ail Middle-earth.
Copy !req
408. The War of the Ring has begun, Frodo.
Copy !req
409. You wiil hear the rest in Council
when you are well enough. Rest now.
Copy !req
410. The leaves were long
The grass was green
Copy !req
411. With the hemlock umbels, tall and fair
Copy !req
412. And in the glade a light was seen
Of stars in shadow, shimmering
Copy !req
413. Tinuviel was dancing there
Copy !req
414. Bilbo!
Copy !req
415. Hello, Frodo, my lad.
Copy !req
416. Where have you been?
Why haven't I seen you before?
Copy !req
417. Heh. Well, I've seen a good deal of you,
sitting by your side with Sam each day.
Copy !req
418. Bilbo, have you been here all the time?
All these years?
Copy !req
419. Well, there didn't seem much reason
to be anywhere else, after all.
Copy !req
420. The food's very good.
And I listen, and I think.
Copy !req
421. - A remarkable place altogether.
- Ha, yes.
Copy !req
422. And now, of course, there's all this bustle
about that ring of mine.
Copy !req
423. Fancy the little thing causing
such a disturbance. Have you got it here?
Copy !req
424. Yes, I have.
Copy !req
425. I should very much like
just to peep at it again, just for a moment.
Copy !req
426. Put it away.
Copy !req
427. I understand now.
Copy !req
428. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
429. Sorry about...
Copy !req
430. everything.
Copy !req
431. Don't...
Copy !req
432. adventures...
Copy !req
433. ever have an end?
Copy !req
434. The Council of Elrond is beginning.
Copy !req
435. Come with me. Both of you.
Copy !req
436. All that morning, the Council of
Elrond debated the history of the One Ring...
Copy !req
437. and its master, Sauron.
Copy !req
438. Gandalf also told all present
of Saruman, the traitor...
Copy !req
439. and his desire
for the power of the Ring.
Copy !req
440. Elves and Dwarves, in their turn,
told what they knew of Sauron.s...
Copy !req
441. preparations for conquest,
and so did Boromir of Gondor.
Copy !req
442. in Gondor, we are already under attack
by the forces of Mordor.
Copy !req
443. I am Boromir. In a dream...
Copy !req
444. I heard a voice crying to me, saying:
"Seek for the sword that was broken."
Copy !req
445. Here is the sword of Elendil of Gondor...
Copy !req
446. who fought the Dark Lord long ago
and was slain.
Copy !req
447. So Frodo learned at last...
Copy !req
448. the true heritage of Aragorn,
the son of Arathorn...
Copy !req
449. descendent of lsildur,
who cut the One Ring from Sauron's hand.
Copy !req
450. Then it belongs to you,
and not to me at ali?
Copy !req
451. Bring out the Ring, Frodo.
Copy !req
452. The time has come.
Copy !req
453. isildur's Bane.
Copy !req
454. The Halfling.
Copy !req
455. What shall we do with it then,
this mightiest of all weapons?
Copy !req
456. We cannot keep it, we cannot destroy it.
Copy !req
457. Sauron, who forged it,
looks for his Ring...
Copy !req
458. and Saruman, who envies it,
searches for its power too.
Copy !req
459. I see no other road for us
but the most fearful.
Copy !req
460. The road into Mordor.
Copy !req
461. We must send the Ring to the fire
where it was made.
Copy !req
462. To Mount Doom.
Copy !req
463. What foolishness is this? Why do
you speak of hiding and destroying?
Copy !req
464. - The Ring could save ali Middle-earth.
- Have you heard nothing?
Copy !req
465. it is Sauron's Ring. To wield it...
Copy !req
466. you would have to become Sauron.
I wili not touch it.
Copy !req
467. Nor I.
Copy !req
468. Our one hope lies in foolishness, Boromir.
Copy !req
469. The Dark Lord cannot conceive
of anyone wishing to destroy his Ring.
Copy !req
470. He will wait
until one of us tries to use it...
Copy !req
471. follow every move we make.
Copy !req
472. And it is just possible
that he may not notice...
Copy !req
473. the small, quiet feet
walking into peril...
Copy !req
474. into Mordor.
Copy !req
475. Very well. Very well. It's plain enough
what you're pointing at.
Copy !req
476. Bilbo, the silly Hobbit, started this affair,
and Bilbo had better finish it, or himself.
Copy !req
477. When ought I to start?
Copy !req
478. it has passed beyond you, Bilbo.
Copy !req
479. This last journey
must be for others to make.
Copy !req
480. - Ah, and who are they to be?
- That is what they're trying to decide here.
Copy !req
481. I...
Copy !req
482. I wili take the Ring...
Copy !req
483. though I do not know the way.
Copy !req
484. I think that this task
is appointed for you, Frodo.
Copy !req
485. This is the hour of the Shire-folk, at last.
Copy !req
486. But you won't
send him off alone, surely?
Copy !req
487. You, at least, shall go with him,
Master Samwise.
Copy !req
488. it is hardiy possible to separate you...
Copy !req
489. even when he is summoned
to a secret Council, and you are not.
Copy !req
490. A nice pickle we've landed ourselves in,
Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
491. I thought perhaps
you might care to have these.
Copy !req
492. Bilbo, I don't think I should look right.
Copy !req
493. You can wear the shirt
under your clothes.
Copy !req
494. it's as iight as anything.
Copy !req
495. But I fancy it might turn
even the knives of the Black Riders.
Copy !req
496. I named the sword Sting, long ago.
Copy !req
497. it's siily, but there you are.
Copy !req
498. it shines when there are enemies about.
Copy !req
499. Orcs and things.
Copy !req
500. There.
Copy !req
501. Now, you look just a plain Hobbit
on the surface, but...
Copy !req
502. Well...
Copy !req
503. take care.
Copy !req
504. Bring back any old songs
and tales you hear.
Copy !req
505. Our only hope is in speed and secrecy.
Copy !req
506. The company of the Ring shall be nine.
Copy !req
507. Nine walkers against
the nine Riders of Mordor.
Copy !req
508. With Sam and Frodo, Gandalf will go.
Copy !req
509. For the other free peoples...
Copy !req
510. Legolas shall be for the Elves,
and Gimli, son of Gloin, for the Dwarves.
Copy !req
511. For Men shall go
the valiant Boromir of Gondor...
Copy !req
512. and Aragorn, son of Arathorn.
Copy !req
513. And for the last two places,
we will trust to friendship...
Copy !req
514. rather than to great wisdom.
Copy !req
515. Peregrin Took and Meriadoc Brandybuck
may also go.
Copy !req
516. When did you ever know such a storm
so far south?
Copy !req
517. The Dark Lord's arm has grown long
if he can hurl snow at us...
Copy !req
518. ail the way from Mordor.
Copy !req
519. His arm has grown long.
Copy !req
520. There is only one course for us.
Copy !req
521. No, Gandalf, not that dark way, I beg you.
Copy !req
522. And what would you suggest?
Copy !req
523. Returning to Rivendell to wait there
for the end? We have no choice, Aragorn.
Copy !req
524. We might go by way
of the Gap of Rohan.
Copy !req
525. That would take the Ring too close to
isengard and Aruman. We dare not risk it.
Copy !req
526. Yet you would risk the Mines of Moria.
Copy !req
527. Where both you and I have walked before
and come out again alive.
Copy !req
528. The memory is very evil.
Copy !req
529. I do not wish to enter Moria
a second time.
Copy !req
530. And I don't wish to enter it even once.
Copy !req
531. Nor me.
Copy !req
532. The question is not who wishes to go,
but who will?
Copy !req
533. There is no other way
to pass the mountains.
Copy !req
534. I wili go with you.
Copy !req
535. My cousin Balin led a company
of Dwarves there, many years ago.
Copy !req
536. There has been no word of them
in all that time.
Copy !req
537. Elves do not walk in the dark earth.
Copy !req
538. I wili go, but I fear for you, Gandalf.
Copy !req
539. I wili not go, not unless the vote
of the whole company is against me.
Copy !req
540. What does the Ring-bearer say?
Copy !req
541. I do not wish to go.
Copy !req
542. But I will go, if Gandalf advises it.
Copy !req
543. Steady. Easy, Bill. Oid Gandalf
will have that gate open in a minute.
Copy !req
544. What if he can't?
Copy !req
545. I have never seen anything
Mr. Gandalf couldn't do.
Copy !req
546. Sam!
Copy !req
547. Fireworks are all very nice,
but this is eif magic.
Copy !req
548. What a people you Dwarves are
for hiding things.
Copy !req
549. On the gates of your most wondrous,
ancient kingdom you write:
Copy !req
550. "Speak, friend, and enter," and no speli
in any ianguage can open the door.
Copy !req
551. Why do you keep looking
at the lake, Frodo?
Copy !req
552. I'm afraid of it.
Copy !req
553. And there sits our quest.
if we had to bring a wizard at all...
Copy !req
554. - ... it should have been Aruman.
- Be stili, Boromir.
Copy !req
555. Why? There are other ways to turn
if our Wizard's balked.
Copy !req
556. I said, from the beginning...
Copy !req
557. Gandaif, you old fool.
Copy !req
558. So ail you had to do
was say, "friend," and enter.
Copy !req
559. Those were happier times.
Copy !req
560. Let us go.
Copy !req
561. Gandaif!
Copy !req
562. I'm coming, Mr. Frodo, I'm coming!
Copy !req
563. into the gateway. All of you!
Copy !req
564. Bill!
Copy !req
565. Poor old Bili. Poor old Bill.
Copy !req
566. Gandaif...
Copy !req
567. - ... what was the thing in the water?
- I do not know.
Copy !req
568. There are older and fouier things than Orcs
in the deep places of the world.
Copy !req
569. Whatever it was, it grabbed
Frodo first, out of ail of us.
Copy !req
570. Be quiet, Pippin!
Copy !req
571. We have gone far enough for today.
Copy !req
572. Let us stop here for the night.
Copy !req
573. Seems to have been a guardroom.
Copy !req
574. Yes, there's even a well.
Copy !req
575. We had better rest here.
Copy !req
576. it's hard to believe that even Dwarves...
Copy !req
577. could have lived
in this haif-drowned dungeon.
Copy !req
578. it was a great realm once.
Be still. Both of you.
Copy !req
579. Which way do we take tomorrow, Gandalf?
Copy !req
580. I have not decided.
Copy !req
581. The path to the left smelis foul,
and I am too weary to choose.
Copy !req
582. The way ahead feels wrong, somehow.
Copy !req
583. At least the middle way goes
up. It's time we began to climb again.
Copy !req
584. Perhaps. I cannot remember.
Copy !req
585. What's that?
Copy !req
586. - Pippin!
- Oh, um...
Copy !req
587. Just a stone. I, uh, dropped a stone.
Copy !req
588. Fool of a Took.
Throw yourself in next time. Be quiet.
Copy !req
589. Fool of a Pippin!
Copy !req
590. Yes, this way.
Copy !req
591. We shouid find our way down
to the Great Gates by tonight.
Copy !req
592. I shall be glad.
Copy !req
593. I doubt now that Dwarves
ever came back here.
Copy !req
594. Why should they have come back?
What was left for them to mine?
Copy !req
595. Mithril silver.
The most precious metal in the world.
Copy !req
596. "Baiin, son of Fundin...
Copy !req
597. Lord of Moria."
Copy !req
598. They did come back.
Copy !req
599. it seems to be a record of the colony.
Copy !req
600. Orc swords.
There was a great battie here.
Copy !req
601. Yes.
Copy !req
602. "Baiin is now Lord of Moria."
Copy !req
603. Here it says, "We found Mithril."
Copy !req
604. Now it says:
Copy !req
605. "Yesterday, Balin, Lord of Moria, feil.
Copy !req
606. An Orc shot him from behind a stone.
Copy !req
607. We slew the Orc, but many more—"
Copy !req
608. Then it says,
"We have barred the gates."
Copy !req
609. And something about,
"The Watcher in the Water."
Copy !req
610. - What do you hear?
- Nothing.
Copy !req
611. - But I feel.
- It is grim reading.
Copy !req
612. "They have taken the bridge.
They are coming.
Copy !req
613. We cannot get out.
Drums, drums in the deep."
Copy !req
614. - There is nothing more.
- Gandalf? I don't wanna stay here.
Copy !req
615. We are going now, Pippin.
There is nothing more.
Copy !req
616. They're coming.
Slam the doors and wedge them.
Copy !req
617. Keep the east door ajar.
We must not get shut in.
Copy !req
618. Orcs and something else.
A great cave-troll, I think.
Copy !req
619. Out this way.
Copy !req
620. The Shire!
Copy !req
621. For the Shire!
Copy !req
622. Now is the last chance. Run for it!
Copy !req
623. I'm ail right. I can walk.
Copy !req
624. I thought you were dead.
Copy !req
625. All of you, down the stairs!
Copy !req
626. Lead the way, Gimli.
Pippin and Merry next.
Copy !req
627. Come no closer.
Come no closer, I warn you!
Copy !req
628. Balrog.
Copy !req
629. Fly, all of you.
Fly, up the stair and straight on.
Copy !req
630. Fly. You cannot heip me.
Copy !req
631. You cannot pass.
Copy !req
632. I am a servant of the Secret Fire.
Copy !req
633. You cannot pass.
Go back to the shadow.
Copy !req
634. You cannot pass!
Copy !req
635. Fly, you fools!
Copy !req
636. Come. Follow me.
Copy !req
637. Obey him.
Copy !req
638. There may be a bit of a scar, Sam.
Copy !req
639. I don't care.
Copy !req
640. Now it is your turn, Frodo.
Copy !req
641. I'm ail right. What does it matter now?
Copy !req
642. it matters. We still have a iong road,
and much to do.
Copy !req
643. Why? We've no hope without Gandalf.
You know that, Aragorn.
Copy !req
644. Then we must do without hope.
There is always vengeance.
Copy !req
645. Mithril shirt!
Copy !req
646. That's what saved you.
Copy !req
647. I have never seen one so beautiful.
Copy !req
648. - There.
- What is it?
Copy !req
649. The footsteps,
I heard them in Moria, following.
Copy !req
650. The Orcs will not come until dark.
Copy !req
651. it never sounds like an Orc.
Copy !req
652. They're bare feet and they flap.
Copy !req
653. Whatever creature it is,
it won't follow us where we're going.
Copy !req
654. Nothing evil passes through Lothlorien.
Copy !req
655. - That is not what we say in Gondor.
- Then you know nothing in Gondor.
Copy !req
656. Out of Moria into the Golden Wood.
is there no way less perilous?
Copy !req
657. I would almost rather face
the Balrog again, than— Than the Lady.
Copy !req
658. Lothlorien is a piace of heaiing.
There is no evil in it, unless a man...
Copy !req
659. - ... brings evil there with him.
- Welcome to Lothlorien.
Copy !req
660. I am Galadriel,
and this is my lord, Celeborn.
Copy !req
661. The forests have told us of your loss.
Copy !req
662. We sorrow for you,
and for all of Middle-earth.
Copy !req
663. Rest here now for a little,
until you are healed.
Copy !req
664. Your quest is known to us.
Copy !req
665. We wiil do what we can to aid you.
Copy !req
666. Frodo Baggins of the Shire?
Copy !req
667. it's a song about Gandalf, isn't it?
Copy !req
668. Yes, Mithrandir
was the Elves' name for him.
Copy !req
669. it means, "gray pilgrim."
Copy !req
670. We knew so little of him in the Shire,
Aragorn. He was just Gandalf, to us.
Copy !req
671. - We never knew he had so many names.
- I think he was fondest of Gandalf.
Copy !req
672. This is the mirror of Galadriel.
Copy !req
673. it shows things that were,
and things that are...
Copy !req
674. and things that yet may be.
Copy !req
675. Do you wish to look?
Copy !req
676. I'd not mind a glimpse
of what's going on at home.
Copy !req
677. it seems a terrible long time
I've been away.
Copy !req
678. Come then, you shall look...
Copy !req
679. and see what you may.
Copy !req
680. I gotta go home.
They've dug up Bagshot Row...
Copy !req
681. and thrown my poor old Gaffer
out in the street.
Copy !req
682. I've gotta go home.
Copy !req
683. The mirror shows many things, Sam,
and not ail have yet come to pass.
Copy !req
684. Some never come to be,
unless those that behold the visions...
Copy !req
685. turn aside from their path
to prevent them.
Copy !req
686. Do you wish to leave Frodo now,
and go home?
Copy !req
687. No.
Copy !req
688. Gandaif?
Copy !req
689. No.
Copy !req
690. No, it must be Aruman.
Copy !req
691. Do not touch the water.
Copy !req
692. He is looking for you.
Copy !req
693. But he cannot find you, not here, not yet.
The door is closed.
Copy !req
694. "Three Rings for the Elven-kings
under the sky."
Copy !req
695. Yes.
Copy !req
696. We hid those three from him,
and he has never touched them.
Copy !req
697. if your quest fails, then nothing can stand
against him and we are defenseless.
Copy !req
698. Yet, if you succeed,
if the One Ring is destroyed...
Copy !req
699. ail we built with the three will fade.
Copy !req
700. Time will come here,
and Lothlorien wiil fade.
Copy !req
701. You are the footstep
of doom to us, Frodo.
Copy !req
702. Lady Galadriel, I will give you
the One Ring, if you ask for it.
Copy !req
703. it's too great a matter for me.
Copy !req
704. And I came to test your heart.
Copy !req
705. You wiil give me the Great Ring freely...
Copy !req
706. and in place of the Dark Lord
you wiil set up a queen.
Copy !req
707. And I shall not be evil, but beautiful...
Copy !req
708. and terrible as the morning
and the night.
Copy !req
709. Stronger than the foundations
of the earth.
Copy !req
710. All shall love me and despair.
Copy !req
711. I passed the test.
Copy !req
712. I wili diminish and go into the west,
and remain Galadriel.
Copy !req
713. And you must depart in the morning.
Copy !req
714. For Gondor and the House of Isildur.
Copy !req
715. For Gondor and the city of Minas Tirith.
Copy !req
716. in a few days, we will have to choose.
Copy !req
717. Shall we turn west with Boromir
and go to the wars of Gondor...
Copy !req
718. or turn east to Mordor
and its Dark Lord?
Copy !req
719. - Or shall we break our fellowship?
- I'm going with Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
720. I know that, Sam.
Copy !req
721. What a place. What an horrible place.
Copy !req
722. Behold the Argonath,
the pillars of the kings.
Copy !req
723. They are Isildur and Anarion,
my fathers of old.
Copy !req
724. if Gandalf were here...
Copy !req
725. The day has come at last, the day
of choice, which we have long delayed.
Copy !req
726. What shall now become of our company?
Copy !req
727. I am not Gandalf.
Copy !req
728. I have tried to guide you
as he would've done, but...
Copy !req
729. if he had any plan for this moment,
he never told me.
Copy !req
730. Even if he had...
Copy !req
731. if he had lived...
Copy !req
732. I think the burden
would stiil have fallen on you, Frodo.
Copy !req
733. You alone can choose your way now.
Copy !req
734. The burden is heavy.
Copy !req
735. Give me an hour longer, and I will speak.
Copy !req
736. Let me be alone!
Copy !req
737. You shall have your hour.
Copy !req
738. And you shall be alone.
Copy !req
739. Who's there?
Copy !req
740. - Boromir.
- I was afraid for you, Frodo.
Copy !req
741. The Orcs may be on this side
of the river by now.
Copy !req
742. May I stay and talk to you,
just for a while?
Copy !req
743. You're kind,
but there's nothing to be said.
Copy !req
744. I know what I should do,
but I'm afraid of doing it, Boromir.
Copy !req
745. I wish I could help you.
Wiil you hear my counsel?
Copy !req
746. I know what your advice
would be, Boromir.
Copy !req
747. To go with you to Gondor
and use the Ring to defend Minas Tirith.
Copy !req
748. And is that such ili counsel?
Copy !req
749. Why should we fear to use the Ring
in a just cause?
Copy !req
750. Boromir, whatever is done with the Ring
turns to evil.
Copy !req
751. Gandaif and Elrond refused to touch it,
and Galadriel herself—
Copy !req
752. Yes, yes, I know ali that.
Copy !req
753. For themselves, they may be right,
these Elves and haif-Elves and Wizards!
Copy !req
754. But truehearted men will not be corrupted.
We, of Minas Tirith, do not seek power.
Copy !req
755. Only the strength to defend ourselves.
Where is the evil in that, Frodo?
Copy !req
756. You cannot answer, none of them can.
Copy !req
757. it's madness not to use
the power of the enemy against him.
Copy !req
758. Think what Aragorn could do
with the Ring in this hour.
Copy !req
759. Or if he refuses, why not Boromir?
Copy !req
760. How I would drive the hosts of Mordor...
Copy !req
761. untii I stood face-to-face
with Sauron himself.
Copy !req
762. And they tell us to throw it away!
Copy !req
763. Come with me, Frodo.
Copy !req
764. My city is not far.
Copy !req
765. You can go to Mordor from there,
if you must.
Copy !req
766. Only, trust me, iet me try my plan.
Copy !req
767. - Lend me the Ring.
- No, Boromir.
Copy !req
768. No.
Copy !req
769. Fool. Obstinate fool.
it is only yours by chance.
Copy !req
770. it might have been mine.
Copy !req
771. it should be mine. Give it to me!
Copy !req
772. Miserable trickster.
You'll seli us all to Sauron.
Copy !req
773. Traitor. Traitor!
Copy !req
774. Curse you to death and darkness,
all you Halflings!
Copy !req
775. What have I done?
Copy !req
776. Frodo, come back!
Copy !req
777. A madness took me, but it has passed.
Copy !req
778. Come back!
Copy !req
779. This waiting's horrible.
Copy !req
780. Where have you been, Boromir?
Have you seen Frodo?
Copy !req
781. I tried to convince him
to come to Minas Tirith.
Copy !req
782. I... I grew angry and he vanished.
Copy !req
783. is that all you have to say?
Copy !req
784. - He put the Ring on.
- But where did he go? Where is he?
Copy !req
785. Mr. Frodo! Mr. Frodo!
Copy !req
786. Gimli, Legolas, stop them.
Copy !req
787. I don't know what part you've played
in this mischief, but help now!
Copy !req
788. Go after Merry and Pippin and guard them,
even if you cannot find Frodo. Go on!
Copy !req
789. Follow me, Sam. Stay close.
Copy !req
790. Whoa, Sam Gamgee.
Copy !req
791. Your legs are too short,
so use your head.
Copy !req
792. The boats.
Copy !req
793. Coming, Mr. Frodo. Coming.
Copy !req
794. it's only water, now.
Copy !req
795. - I'm here, Sam.
- Save me, Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
796. - Heip, I'm drowning.
- Take my hand.
Copy !req
797. - Where's your hand?
- Here. Here it is.
Copy !req
798. Of ail the confounded nuisances
I ever knew.
Copy !req
799. Oh, Mr. Frodo, that's hard.
Copy !req
800. if I hadn't guessed right,
where would you be now?
Copy !req
801. Safeiy on my way.
Copy !req
802. Safeiy? All alone
and without me to help you?
Copy !req
803. But I am going to Mordor.
Copy !req
804. Well, of course you are,
Mr. Frodo, and I'm coming with you.
Copy !req
805. Oh, it's no good trying to escape you.
Copy !req
806. I'm giad, Sam.
Copy !req
807. May the others find a safe road.
Copy !req
808. Aragorn will look after them.
Copy !req
809. I don't...
Copy !req
810. Don't suppose we shall see them again.
Copy !req
811. Yet we may, Mr. Frodo. We may.
Copy !req
812. This way.
Frodo!
Copy !req
813. Frodo!
Copy !req
814. Halfling.
Copy !req
815. Boromir.
Copy !req
816. Boromir.
Copy !req
817. I tried to take the Ring from Frodo.
Copy !req
818. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
819. I have paid.
Copy !req
820. Aragorn...
Copy !req
821. Aragorn, go to Minas Tirith.
Copy !req
822. Save my people.
Copy !req
823. Aragorn...
Copy !req
824. I wili go.
Copy !req
825. I promise you.
Copy !req
826. The Halflings.
Copy !req
827. Orcs took them.
Copy !req
828. I think they are not dead.
Copy !req
829. Either we take the last boat and follow
Frodo, or we follow the Orcs on foot.
Copy !req
830. Pippin and Merry may be dead by now.
We don't know.
Copy !req
831. We cannot forsake them.
Copy !req
832. The fate of the Ring-bearer
is in my hands no longer.
Copy !req
833. The company of the Ring
has played its part.
Copy !req
834. We foliow the Orcs.
Copy !req
835. Filth. Maggots.
Copy !req
836. Can't run.
Copy !req
837. Hello, Pippin.
Copy !req
838. So you've come
on this little expedition too?
Copy !req
839. When do we get bed and breakfast?
Copy !req
840. Bed and breakfast in lsengard. Understand?
Copy !req
841. - They are aiive.
- One of them, anyway.
Copy !req
842. Pippin, I think, by the footprints.
Copy !req
843. How far ahead of us are they now,
Aragorn?
Copy !req
844. Almost a day. Shall we rest by night,
or go on while our strength holds?
Copy !req
845. Do you think the Orcs will rest?
Copy !req
846. Yet, in the dark we may lose the trail,
or miss a sign, like that brooch.
Copy !req
847. - There will be no more signs.
- I cannot run ail the way to lsengard.
Copy !req
848. Rohan. Rohan.
Copy !req
849. Thank goodness for that rope
the Elves gave you.
Copy !req
850. We'd never have gotten down
that last cliff without it.
Copy !req
851. There's that Mount Doom again,
Mr. Frodo. See it?
Copy !req
852. What a fix!
Copy !req
853. The one piace
that we don't want to see any closer...
Copy !req
854. and that's the one place
we're trying to get to.
Copy !req
855. We're plain lost, Mr. Frodo.
Copy !req
856. I'm tired, Sam.
I don't know what's to be done.
Copy !req
857. We must find a place to camp, I suppose.
Maybe there'll be a path tomorrow.
Copy !req
858. Cautious, my precious.
Copy !req
859. Don't turn!
Copy !req
860. it's him.
Copy !req
861. That Gollum?
That thing who had Mr. Bilbo's ring?
Copy !req
862. He's been following us since Moria.
Copy !req
863. My precious. More haste, less speed.
Copy !req
864. Well, he'll be sorry he found us again.
Copy !req
865. Be careful.
He's much more dangerous than he looks.
Copy !req
866. Where is it, my precious?
Copy !req
867. it's ours, it is, and we wants it.
Copy !req
868. Got you, you spying—
Copy !req
869. Let go, Gollum.
Let go, or I'il cut your throat!
Copy !req
870. Don't hurt us.
Don't let them hurt us, precious.
Copy !req
871. Cruel iittle Hobbitses.
Copy !req
872. Jumps on us
like cats on poor mices, Gollum.
Copy !req
873. We'll be nice to them if they'li be nice
to us, won't we, precious?
Copy !req
874. Pity Mr. Bilbo didn't kill the creature
when he had the chance.
Copy !req
875. I wili not touch him.
Copy !req
876. Now that I see him, I do pity him.
Copy !req
877. Yes, Hobbits won't kill us?
Nice Hobbits, huh?
Copy !req
878. No, we won't.
But we won't let you go, either.
Copy !req
879. You wiil have to come with us
and help us, if you can.
Copy !req
880. Ooh, yes. Yes, indeed. Nice Hobbits.
Copy !req
881. And where are they going in these cold,
hard lands, we wonder?
Copy !req
882. We are going to Mordor, Gollum.
You know that.
Copy !req
883. Lead us to the gates of his land.
Copy !req
884. No. No, precious.
Hobbits mustn't go there.
Copy !req
885. Gollum, Gollum. Leave us alone!
Copy !req
886. Gotcha!
Copy !req
887. I think your rope
might prove useful again, Sam.
Copy !req
888. Tie one end to his ankie.
We want him to walk.
Copy !req
889. Don't hurt us! No, no, no.
Copy !req
890. it burns. It bites. It freezes.
Take it off us. It hurts us.
Copy !req
891. - Don't you do it, Mr. Frodo.
- it hurts us.
Copy !req
892. What promise can you give me
that I can trust?
Copy !req
893. Smeagol will be very good.
Copy !req
894. Smeagol will swear
never to let him have it.
Copy !req
895. Smeagol will save it.
Copy !req
896. The precious is before you, Smeagol.
Speak your promise.
Copy !req
897. We promises, yes, I promise...
Copy !req
898. I will serve the master of the precious.
Copy !req
899. Good master. Good Smeagol.
Copy !req
900. Take the rope off, Sam.
Copy !req
901. Off we go. Follow Smeagol.
Copy !req
902. Smeagol knows a secret way, he does,
across the marshes.
Copy !req
903. Follow Smeagoi. Follow.
Copy !req
904. it's far. Far, nice hobbits.
Copy !req
905. I said no shooting.
Copy !req
906. You're wasting arrows, dunghill swine.
Copy !req
907. Snaga, Lugdush, stand guard.
Copy !req
908. Bind their legs.
Copy !req
909. Whiteskins break through. Understand?
Copy !req
910. You and your stinking wizard.
You got us into this.
Copy !req
911. When I teli them in Mordor...
Copy !req
912. They are far.
Copy !req
913. Far away.
Copy !req
914. Stinking Wizard doesn't get you,
the Whiteskins will.
Copy !req
915. You won't get it that way.
it isn't easy to find.
Copy !req
916. Get it? Get what?
Copy !req
917. Nothing, my precious.
Copy !req
918. it's no good groping in the dark.
Copy !req
919. Ugluk wiil be back any minute.
Copy !req
920. Nothing for Mordor.
Copy !req
921. Nothing for poor Grishnakh. Gollum.
Copy !req
922. - Untie us, my precious.
- I said to be quiet.
Copy !req
923. Wait.
Copy !req
924. - You can't find it without our help.
- You help me?
Copy !req
925. I don't know what to do now.
I don't even know where we are.
Copy !req
926. You should have studied
maps more and piayed less in Rivendell.
Copy !req
927. This is Fangorn Forest.
Copy !req
928. Then we're no safer
than we were with the Orcs.
Copy !req
929. We've no blankets and aimost no food. And
it iooks iike nothing to eat for 100 miles.
Copy !req
930. We don't even know
where we're trying to get to.
Copy !req
931. Let's climb up there.
Copy !req
932. Maybe we can find out
where we are at least.
Copy !req
933. it's nice here.
Copy !req
934. The forest iooks so different
in the sunlight.
Copy !req
935. I know.
Copy !req
936. it's funny, but, weil,
I almost feel I like the piace.
Copy !req
937. Almost felt you liked the forest?
Copy !req
938. That's uncommonly kind of you.
Copy !req
939. The Orcs made us run. When we couldn't
run anymore, they carried us.
Copy !req
940. We cut our rope, ran to your hiil—
Copy !req
941. "Hill"? Ooh!
Copy !req
942. A hasty word...
Copy !req
943. for something that has stood here
since the worid was shaped.
Copy !req
944. You may call me Treebeard.
Copy !req
945. We thought you were a tree,
standing there.
Copy !req
946. Not a tree, a tree herder.
Copy !req
947. Please, Treebeard...
Copy !req
948. now that you know our story...
Copy !req
949. whose side are you on?
Copy !req
950. I am not altogether on anybody's side...
Copy !req
951. because nobody is aitogether on my side.
Copy !req
952. But I am no friend
of these tree-killing Orcs...
Copy !req
953. and their masters.
Copy !req
954. They were here, no doubt of it.
Copy !req
955. - But where they went...
- I don't understand these other marks.
Copy !req
956. Look!
Copy !req
957. Your bow, Legolas. It's Aruman.
Copy !req
958. - Shoot before he puts a spell on us, quickiy.
- Elf...
Copy !req
959. Man and Dwarf together?
Copy !req
960. - A rare sight in these times.
- Now. Stop him, Legoias.
Copy !req
961. Gandaif.
Copy !req
962. Beyond ail hope.
Copy !req
963. - Gandalf!
- Yes.
Copy !req
964. Yes, that was my name.
Copy !req
965. But where have you—? Gandalf!
Copy !req
966. - What happened?
- A long time I feil.
Copy !req
967. Long I fell and he fell with me.
His fire was about me.
Copy !req
968. I was burned.
Copy !req
969. Ever he clutched me, and ever
I hewed him, far under the living earth...
Copy !req
970. until at last, he fled back up
the secret ways of Moria.
Copy !req
971. There we fought,
above the mists of the world...
Copy !req
972. and the mountain was wreathed
with lightning.
Copy !req
973. I threw down my enemy
and his fall broke the mountainside.
Copy !req
974. Then darkness took me...
Copy !req
975. and I wandered far,
on roads that I will not tell.
Copy !req
976. Naked, I was sent back for a brief time,
until my task was done.
Copy !req
977. And it is time I was about it.
Copy !req
978. You come with me to Edoras, my friends,
to the city of the Riders?
Copy !req
979. To Edoras, now?
Copy !req
980. But to leave Merry and Pippin?
Copy !req
981. They are in no danger, believe me.
Copy !req
982. The great danger is to Edoras.
Copy !req
983. Saruman's Orcs will attack there
within two days...
Copy !req
984. and King Theoden has need of us.
Copy !req
985. Theoden has grown old.
Copy !req
986. He shivers by his fire now...
Copy !req
987. and leaves everything in the hands
of his new minister...
Copy !req
988. Grima Wormtongue.
Copy !req
989. Those riders you followed,
who rescued Merry and Pippin...
Copy !req
990. they were led
by Theoden.s nephew, Eomer.
Copy !req
991. He is all but an outlaw
in Rohan these days.
Copy !req
992. But he hunts the Orcs
wherever he finds them...
Copy !req
993. defying Wormtongue.s orders
to let them pass.
Copy !req
994. So Wormtongue calls him traitor
and renegade...
Copy !req
995. and Theoden believes.
Copy !req
996. Gandalf, the Riders of Rohan
are the bravest fighters I ever knew...
Copy !req
997. but they were never many.
Copy !req
998. if Saruman strikes now,
he will overrun Edoras in a single night.
Copy !req
999. Our time is at hand.
Copy !req
1000. Theoden's hundreds will face
your tens of thousands.
Copy !req
1001. And when all of Rohan,
your ancient oppressor, lies vanquished...
Copy !req
1002. then shall we fly eastward...
Copy !req
1003. and sweep all of Middle-earth
beneath our feet.
Copy !req
1004. We cannot be defeated!
Copy !req
1005. Halfway between Edoras and
isengard, there lies an oid, strong fortress...
Copy !req
1006. that Men call Helm's Deep.
Copy !req
1007. If we can decoy Saruman.s Orcs there...
Copy !req
1008. the fortress will stop them longer
than the wooden halls of Edoras.
Copy !req
1009. - We are buying time, Aragorn.
- Time? Time for what?
Copy !req
1010. Perhaps for a miracle.
Copy !req
1011. Perhaps only for Frodo
to get a little further on his way...
Copy !req
1012. whiie the armies
that should be hunting for the Ring...
Copy !req
1013. waste their own time destroying us.
Copy !req
1014. I have returned.
Copy !req
1015. The storm comes swiftly, and it is time
for all friends to gather together.
Copy !req
1016. And...
Copy !req
1017. do you...
Copy !req
1018. expect me...
Copy !req
1019. to welcome you here...
Copy !req
1020. Master Gandalf?
Copy !req
1021. Troubles follow you like crows.
Copy !req
1022. Why should I welcome you,
Gandaif Stormcrow?
Copy !req
1023. Justly spoken, Lord.
in the east, the Dark Lord is stirring.
Copy !req
1024. in Lorien, the sorceress
of the Golden Wood...
Copy !req
1025. weaves her webs of deceit.
Copy !req
1026. And such is the hour
in which this wanderer chooses to return.
Copy !req
1027. it is I...
Copy !req
1028. who counsel the King now.
He hears you no longer.
Copy !req
1029. No, Grima Wormtongue.
Copy !req
1030. He hears nothing but your voice
telling him that he rules here...
Copy !req
1031. only because Aruman is kind
to old men...
Copy !req
1032. and that the best thing
for a sickly, feeble king...
Copy !req
1033. is to let wizards and Orcs
do as they will in Rohan.
Copy !req
1034. I am my own man, Gandalf...
Copy !req
1035. as I was.
Copy !req
1036. it is true that...
Copy !req
1037. Grima advises me often to leave
Aruman in peace—
Copy !req
1038. Hear, my Lord, you tire yourself.
You are still unwell.
Copy !req
1039. And he does remind me
that it would be safest for Rohan...
Copy !req
1040. to seek their friendship,
no matter how I may feel!
Copy !req
1041. Dear Lord, let me deal with
these troublesome guests.
Copy !req
1042. How long has it been,
Grima Wormtongue?
Copy !req
1043. How long since Aruman bought you?
Copy !req
1044. For I saw you at isengard.
Copy !req
1045. Did I not counsel
your doorkeeper to forbid his staff?
Copy !req
1046. Down, snake.
Copy !req
1047. Down on your belly.
Copy !req
1048. Grima is often...
Copy !req
1049. at isengard.
I send him there with messages.
Copy !req
1050. And he returns with poison.
Copy !req
1051. Aruman's poison in your ears,
Theoden king.
Copy !req
1052. Chilling your heart, making you old.
Take courage, Lord of Rohan!
Copy !req
1053. Grima...
Copy !req
1054. is this so?
Copy !req
1055. I wili not harm you, Grima.
Copy !req
1056. is it so?
Copy !req
1057. Ah! Let him go!
Copy !req
1058. My sister-daughter, Eowyn.
Copy !req
1059. My only loyal kin...
Copy !req
1060. since her brother has disobeyed
my commands.
Copy !req
1061. Wormtongue's command, Theoden.
Copy !req
1062. if Eomer had not defied him...
Copy !req
1063. our cause might be already lost.
Copy !req
1064. Tell me, Gandaif...
Copy !req
1065. what I must do now.
Copy !req
1066. We cannot wait here
for Saruman's attack.
Copy !req
1067. Every man that can ride
must be sent immediately...
Copy !req
1068. to the old fortress of Helm's Deep.
Copy !req
1069. When Saruman learns
that we have gone there, and he will...
Copy !req
1070. we will have the Riders of Rohan.
Copy !req
1071. I wili find Eomer and his Riders.
Copy !req
1072. My armor!
Copy !req
1073. Look for me at Helm's Deep.
Copy !req
1074. Ha-ha-ha. And he's gone again...
Copy !req
1075. like a wind in the grass.
Copy !req
1076. Stormcrow.
Copy !req
1077. - Aragorn.
- My Lord?
Copy !req
1078. is there any hope for us?
Copy !req
1079. Oh, Sam, you simpleminded...
Copy !req
1080. Fell asleep.
Copy !req
1081. Mr. Frodo, he's gone.
Copy !req
1082. - Smeagol?
- He's gone. I didn't mean to sleep.
Copy !req
1083. Well, he'll come back.
Promise will hold him a while yet.
Copy !req
1084. He won't leave his precious, anyway.
Copy !req
1085. Are we rested?
Copy !req
1086. Hmm? Ready to go on...
Copy !req
1087. nice Hobbitses?
Copy !req
1088. Trust Smeagol now?
Copy !req
1089. Shivery light.
Copy !req
1090. Nasty. Nasty.
Copy !req
1091. Look!
Copy !req
1092. Wraiths.
Copy !req
1093. Wraiths on wings.
The precious is caliing them.
Copy !req
1094. Gollum, wait, Mr. Frodo can't keep up.
Slow down, I tell you.
Copy !req
1095. No time, no time.
Copy !req
1096. The precious is heavy, yes.
Copy !req
1097. Very heavy. Smeagol knows.
Copy !req
1098. if it's too heavy for nice Master...
Copy !req
1099. little Smeagoi will carry it.
Copy !req
1100. Smeagol doesn't mind.
Give it to Smeagol.
Copy !req
1101. Do not say that again. Do not think it.
Copy !req
1102. Before you touched the precious
ever again, Smeagol...
Copy !req
1103. I would put it on and command you
to leap off a cliff, or into a fire...
Copy !req
1104. and you would do it, Smeagol.
Copy !req
1105. Nice, Master. Nice, Master. Nice.
Copy !req
1106. Smeagol promised. Yes.
Yes, we promised to save our precious...
Copy !req
1107. never to let him have it,
but it's going to him.
Copy !req
1108. My precious is nearer every step.
Copy !req
1109. I can't help it.
Smeagol promised to help nice Hobbit.
Copy !req
1110. He took cruel rope off our leg.
He speaks nicely to me.
Copy !req
1111. He's a Baggins, my precious.
A Baggins stoled it.
Copy !req
1112. We hates Bagginses.
Must have the precious. Must have it.
Copy !req
1113. We wants it. We wants it.
Copy !req
1114. But there's two of them.
Copy !req
1115. Yes.
Copy !req
1116. We needs help, precious.
She might help, yes.
Copy !req
1117. She might help us.
Copy !req
1118. But Smeagol promised nice Hobbit.
Copy !req
1119. Oh...
Copy !req
1120. Nice. Nice Hobbit.
Copy !req
1121. Hey, you.
Copy !req
1122. What are you pawing at him for?
Copy !req
1123. Where you been anyway,
sneaking off and sneaking back?
Copy !req
1124. Sneaking? Sneaking?
Copy !req
1125. Hobbit's always so polite, yes.
Copy !req
1126. Tired, thirsty Smeagol. He finds
a secret way through the mountain.
Copy !req
1127. A tunnel with no Orcses anywhere,
and they say "sneak."Sneak"?
Copy !req
1128. Well, you startied me. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
1129. Hello, Smeagoi.
Copy !req
1130. - Where have you been?
- Sneaking! Hmph!
Copy !req
1131. I like this place. There is good rock here.
Copy !req
1132. This country has tough bones.
Copy !req
1133. Up on the ridge. They're coming.
Here they are!
Copy !req
1134. Fire of Isengard!
Copy !req
1135. We're breached! Retreat to the caves!
Copy !req
1136. The caves!
Copy !req
1137. Theoden king.
Copy !req
1138. I wili not end here...
Copy !req
1139. taken like an old badger in a trap.
Copy !req
1140. When dawn comes...
Copy !req
1141. I will bid men sound Helm's horn...
Copy !req
1142. and I will ride forth.
Copy !req
1143. Wiil you ride with me then,
son of Arathorn?
Copy !req
1144. At least, we may make such an end...
Copy !req
1145. as will be worth a song.
Copy !req
1146. I wili ride with you.
Copy !req
1147. We're there, Sam.
Copy !req
1148. Another day, maybe two.
Copy !req
1149. When light comes tomorrow,
you'll see how near the mountains are.
Copy !req
1150. Well, it's a good thing, Mr. Frodo,
because we're running awful low on food.
Copy !req
1151. I reckon we've got enough left
to see us to this Mount Doom.
Copy !req
1152. After that, I don't know.
Copy !req
1153. Oh, Sam.
Copy !req
1154. Samwise Gamgee.
Copy !req
1155. My dearest Hobbit, friend of friends.
Copy !req
1156. After that? if the Ring goes into the fire,
and we're at hand...
Copy !req
1157. after that, dear Sam...
Copy !req
1158. I wouldn't worry.
Copy !req
1159. Just to get there. Just to get there.
Copy !req
1160. The Ring is so heavy now, Sam.
Copy !req
1161. We must go.
Copy !req
1162. Mustn't rest here, siily Hobbits.
Copy !req
1163. Orcs find us. Ringwraiths find us.
Must go on to safe, secret place.
Copy !req
1164. Smeagol's secret way!
Copy !req
1165. The straight stair...
Copy !req
1166. and the winding stair.
Copy !req
1167. Up, up, up...
Copy !req
1168. through biack, sharp mountains.
Copy !req
1169. Follow good Smeagol.
Copy !req
1170. Straight stair, winding stair...
Copy !req
1171. what comes after that?
Copy !req
1172. We shall see. Oh, yes...
Copy !req
1173. we shall see.
Copy !req
1174. Gandaif!
Copy !req
1175. Gandaif!
Copy !req
1176. The forces of darkness were driven forever...
Copy !req
1177. from the face of Middle-earth...
Copy !req
1178. by the valiant friends of Frodo.
Copy !req
1179. As their gallant battle ended...
Copy !req
1180. so too ends the first great tale of...
Copy !req
1181. The Lord of the Rings.
