:25:01
I know the wild country.
:25:03
I can take you to Rivendell
by paths that are seldom trodden.
:25:08
Will you have me?
:25:09
With your leave, Mr. Frodo, I'd say no.
:25:12
This Strider, he says be more careful,
I say, let's start with him.
:25:16
How do we know he's from Gandalf?
:25:18
More likely, he's a playacting spy,
working for....
:25:22
-For them.
-I don't know, Sam.
:25:25
I think one of the Enemy's servants
would, well...
:25:28
...seem fairer and feel fouler,
if you understand.
:25:33
While I look foul and feel fair, is that it?
:25:37
Well, no, I meant....
:25:39
Frodo!
:25:41
Frodo, I've seen them !
I've seen them, Frodo!
:25:45
I've seen them ! Black Riders!
:25:48
My men found him lying in the street.
:25:50
There were two of them.
:25:51
They were hissing to each other.
I seemed to be drawn towards them.
:25:55
You do need looking after, all of you.
:25:58
There's been strange folk about for days.
:26:02
That Ranger...
:26:04
...Strider coming and going and-- Strider!
:26:10
-They've come from Mordor.
-Save us!
:26:13
They won't trouble you once I am gone.
:26:15
Strider came to offer me his help.
:26:19
You know your own business, maybe...
:26:22
...but in your place, I wouldn't take up
with a ranger out of the wild.
:26:26
They have no choice.
:26:28
There is no one else for them
except a fat innkeeper...
:26:31
...who only remembers his name
because people shout it at him all day!
:26:36
I'll do what I can to help, Mr. Baggins.
Mr. Underhill.
:26:41
I'm no hero, but I'll do what I can.
:26:44
Keep watch tonight, you and your folk.
:26:52
There is a hill called Weathertop...
:26:55
...about half way between here
and Rivendell.
:26:58
We will make for it tomorrow.
So will Gandalf, if he can.
