Water, I feel it in the earth, I smell it ELVISH SINGING.A WOMAN'S VOICE IS whispering, tinged with SADNESS and REGRET: GALADRIEL (V.O.) (Elvish: subtitled) Why on Earth would Frodo risk not just his own life, but the fate of the world, by only keeping a single hobbit at a time to guard the Ring against a deranged lunatic who is obsessed with the Ring and is very accustomed to murdering people and creatures with his bare hands, and who could extremely easily murder Frodo and take back the Ring, becoming invisible and impossible for them to ever regain?Īnd perhaps even more importantly: why did Aragorn keep this critical information to himself, and, at least knowing about this himself, neither set any guard for the Company, nor insist on staying awake himself? He just goes to sleep with all of the rest and pretend as if they don't have this insane murderer lurking around?įrankly, this behaviour by Aragorn is extremely careless, is it not? He is supposed to be the wise leader of the Company now that Gandalf is gone, but he puts them all at risk for a number of days whereas Frodo "only" doesn't tell the rest of the party immediately, but in Frodo's defence, at least he does have some kind of guard.BLACK CONTINUES. Aragorn wakes up for some reason, and then reveals that he has known about Gollum following them all along, and even tried to catch him several times. When Sam wakes Frodo up, Frodo soon notices Gollum, and draws his sword, ready for a fight. But instead of telling the rest of the party, or even just Aragorn personally, Frodo decides that Sam is to take only half the watch and then Frodo will take over from that, specifically mentioning that "there is no need" to tell the rest of the Company. Sam tells this to Frodo in the camp, which has no guard, and Frodo then reveals that he agrees that it must be Gollum and that he had suspected this. After the Fellowship had left Elf Paradise and was boating down the long river, Sam notices what turns out to be Gollum following them.
