Flight to the Ford
Sam: Look, Frodo. It's Mr. Bilbo's trolls. Mr. Frodo? He's going cold!
Pippin: Is he going to die?
Strider: He's passing into the shadow world. He'll soon become a wraith like them.
Merry: They're close.
Strider: Sam. Do you know the athelas plant?
Sam: Athelas?
Strider: Kingsfoil.
Sam: Kingsfoil, oh, that's a weed!
Strider: It may help to slow the poison. Hurry!
Arwen: What's this? A ranger, caught off his guard?
Arwen: [appearing as in a vision to Frodo] Frodo, im Arwen. Telin le thaed. Lasto beth nīn, tolo dan nan galad. (Frodo, I am Arwen. I've come to Hlep you. hear my voice. come back to the light.)
Merry: Who is she?
Arwen: Frodo.
Sam: She's an elf.
Arwen: He's fading. He's not going to last. We must get him to my father. I've been looking for you for two days.
Merry: where are you taking him?
Arwen: There are five wraiths behind you. Where the other four are, I do not know.
Strider: Dartho guin Beriain. Rych le ad tolthathon. (Stay with the hobbits. I'll send horses for you.)
Arwen: Hon mabathon. Rochon ellint im. (I'm the faster rider, I'll take him.)
Strider: Andelu i ven. (The road is too dangerous.)
Pippin: What are they saying?
Arwen: Frodo fīr. Ae athradon i hīr, tūr gwaith nīn beriatha hon. (Frodo is dying. If I can get across the river, the power of my people will protect him.) I do not fear them.
Strider: Be iest līn. Arwen. Ride hard. Don't look back.
Arwen: Noro lim, Asfaloth, noro lim! (Run fast, Asfaloth, run fast!)
Sam: What are you doing? Those wraiths are still out there!
[Arwen and Frodo speed across the landscape, pursued by all nine Ringwraiths.]
Arwen: Noro lim, Asfaloth!
[Arwen evades them, finally reaching the Ford of Bruinen. The Ringwraiths are stopped by the water.]
Wtich-King: Give up the halfling, she-elf!
Arwen: If you want him, come and claim him!
[The ringwraiths start to advance.]
Arwen: Nīn o Chithaeglir lasto beth daer; Rimmo nīn Bruinen dan in Ulaer!
[The river rages downstream, taking the Ringwraiths with it.]
Arwen: No, no! Frodo, no! Frodo don't give in! Not now! What grace is given me, let it pass to him. Let him be spared. Save him.
Elrond: Frodo, lasto beth nīn, tolo dan nan galad.
Rivendell
Frodo: Where am I?
Gandalf: You are in the house of Elrond. And it is 10 o'clock in the morning on October the 24th, if you want to know.
Frodo: Gandalf.
Gandalf: Yes, I'm here. And you're lucky to be here, too. A few more hours and you would've been beyond our aid. But you have some strength in you, my dear hobbit.
Frodo: What happened, Gandalf? Why didn't you meet us?
Gandalf: Oh, I am sorry Frodo. I was delayed.
[flashback to Isengard]
Saruman: The friendship of Saruman is not lightly thrown aside. One ill turn deserves another. It is over. Embrace the power of the ring or embrace your own destruction.
Gandalf: There is only one lord of the ring. Only one who can bend it to his will. And he does not share power.
[Gandalf leaps from Orthanc and is caught by an eagle.]
Saruman: So you have chosen death.
[back in Rivendell]
Frodo: Gandalf? What is it?
Gandalf: Nothing.
Sam: Frodo! Frodo!
Frodo: Sam!
Sam: Bless you, you're awake!
Gandalf: Sam has hardly left your side.
Sam: We were that worried about you, weren't we Mr. Gandalf?
Gandalf: By the skills of Lord Elrond, you're beginning to mend.
Elrond: Welcome to Rivendell, Frodo Baggins.
