At that moment there was a knock on the door, and Sam came in. He ran to Frodo and took his left hand, awkwardly and shyly. He stroked it gently and then he blushed and turned hastily away.

"It's warm!" said Sam. "Meaning your hand, Mr. Frodo. It has felt so cold through the long nights. But glory and trumpets!" he cried, turning round again with shining eyes and dancing on the floor. "It's fine to see you up and yourself again, sir!"

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 20/10/2025

Sam was left alone. Wearily, as the evening of the Nameless Land fell upon the place of battle, he crawled back to his master. "Master, dear master," he said, but Frodo did not speak.

They stood now; and Sam still holding his master’s hand caressed it. He sighed. ‘What a tale we have been in, Mr. Frodo, haven’t we?’ he said. ‘I wish I could hear it told! Do you think they’ll say: Now comes the story of Nine-fingered Frodo and the Ring of Doom?’

"You still mean to come with me?" "I do." "It is going to be very dangerous, Sam. It is already dangerous. Most likely neither of us will come back." "If you don't come back, sir, then I shan't, that's certain," said Sam.

"It was merry then when I could run to answer to your call, could hear your voice or take your hand; but now the night must fall. And now beyond the world I sit, and know not where you lie! O master dear, will you not hear my voice before we die?"

CLOSE ON: FRODO hyperventilates and continues clutching the RING as it tries to take him and respond to the calls of the WRAITHS. SAM grabs Frodo’s hand and shakes him. SAM: Mr. Frodo! It’s alright. I’m here.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 28/01/2025

SAM holds FRODO close and weeps.

020

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

FRODO WINCES with a sharp GASP of PAIN ... He puts the PEN down and CLUTCHES at his SHOULDER... SAM has entered the ROOM and stands BEHIND FRODO... SAM: (concerned) What is it?

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

FRODO: Frodo wouldn’t have got far without Sam. SAM: Now Mr. Frodo, you shouldn’t make fun. I was being serious. FRODO: (smiling) So was I

"Do not be too sad, Sam. You cannot be always torn in two. You will have to be one and whole, for many years. You have so much to enjoy and to be, and to do."

023

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

"Good-bye, master, my dear...Forgive your Sam. He'll come back to this spot when the job's done- if he manages it. And then he'll not leave you again. Rest you quiet till I come...And if the Lady could hear me and give me one wish, I would wish to come back and find you again"

021

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

FRODO: I do. I must. I will go with Sam

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

ANGLE ON: SAM and FRODO sit alone in a storage area. SAM (whispers) We have to get out of here. You go. Go, now. ANGLE ON: FRODO looks to SAM, warily. SAM crawls over to him.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

"Very well, Sam. If you wish to go, I'll come," said Frodo

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

They had taken Frodo’s body. They were off. He could not catch them up. Still he laboured on.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

Sam spoke into Frodo's ear all that he could find words for of Gollum's treacherous attack, the horror of Shelob, and his own adventures with the orcs. When he had finished, Frodo said nothing but took Sam's hand and pressed it

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

Sam had noticed that at times a light seemed to be shining faintly within; but now the light was even clearer and stronger. Frodo's face was peaceful, the marks of fear and care had left it; but it looked old, old and beautiful

011

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

Sam went to him and kissed his hand.

010

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

That night they camped on a small eyot close to the western bank. Sam lay rolled in blankets beside Frodo.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

"if you will believe it, he's now one of the most famous people in all the lands, and they are making songs about his deeds from here to the Sea and beyond the Great River." Sam blushed, but he looked gratefully at Frodo

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

ANGLES ON: FRODO turns and runs right into a GONDORIAN RANGER, who grabs hold of him...SAM draws his weapon and charges the RANGER, but another comes out of the trees and knocks him onto his back...the RANGER with FRODO lifts him briefly and tosses him to the ground.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

SAM desperately reaches for him ... FRODO is too far down. SAM: Give me your hand. CLOSE ON: FRODO looks at SAM, his face impassive. SAM (cont’d): Take my hand!

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

"Do not be too sad, Sam. You cannot be always torn in two. You will have to be one and whole, for many years. You have so much to enjoy and to be, and to do." "But," said Sam, and tears started in his eyes, "I thought you were going to enjoy the Shire, too. for years and years"

012

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

‘I do,’ said Frodo. ‘I will go with Sam.’

010

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

"Frodo! Mr. Frodo, my dear!" cried Sam, tears almost blinding him. "It's Sam, I've come!" He half lifted his master and hugged him to his breast.

010

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

It had always been a notion of his that the kindness of dear Mr. Frodo was of such a high degree that it must imply a fair measure of blindness. Of course, he also firmly held the incompatible belief that Mr. Frodo was the wisest person in the world

EXT. RIVENDELL GARDENS - DAY FRODO and SAM walk together.

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

SAM: Let him go or I’ll have you, Longshanks!

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

ANGLE ON: FRODO lurches reliving the act, clutching his shoulder...SAM runs over to him...he passes GOLLUM, hiding under a small tree. SAM Come on, Frodo! Come on! SAM drags FRODO across the ground

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

ANGLE ON: FRODO and SAM sit huddled together wrapped in their cloaks...RAIN beats mercilessly down upon them...neither one sleeps.

011

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

From the Appendices: 1482- "Samwise rides out from Bag End...Samwise passed the Towers, and went to the Grey Havens, and passed over Sea, last of the Ring Bearers"

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

Sam caught his master in his arms, as he stumbled and almost fell, right on the threshold of the bridge.

001

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

ANGLE ON: SAM and FRODO sit on one of the many platforms in the trees at CERIN AMROTH

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

SAM attempts to fuss around FRODO... FRODO: (exhausted) I'm alright. SAM: No, no, you're not alright! You're exhausted. It's that Gollum; it's this place; it's that thing around your neck. I could help a bit ... I could carry it for a while - share the load.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

SAM runs to Frodo’s side.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

FRODO: I thought you wanted to see the Elves, Sam? SAM: I do FRODO: More than anything SAM: I did. It’s just...We did what Gandalf wanted, didn't we? and I thought seeing as how you're on the mend, we'd be off soon. Off home FRODO: You're right, Sam FRODO looks at SAM

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

ANGLE ON: FRODO ... humbled by SAM’S unswerving loyalty. FRODO: Oh, Sam ... I'm so sorry ... sorry for everything. SAM quickly cuts FRODO free. SAM: (smiles) Let's get you out of here.

010

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

"But you've left out one of the chief characters: Samwise the stouthearted. 'I want to hear more about Sam, dad. Why didn't they put in more of his talk, dad? That's what I like, it makes me laugh. And Frodo wouldn't have got far without Sam, would he, dad?'"

020

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

While Gollum was away Sam took another look at Frodo. He was still sleeping quietly, but Sam was now struck most by the leanness of his face and hands. ‘Too thin and drawn he is,’ he muttered. ‘Not right for a hobbit. If I can get these coneys cooked, I’m going to wake him up.’

021

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

SAM runs up and cradles FRODO in his arms SAM: Mr. Frodo! Are you all right?

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

ANGLE ON: FRODO looks at SAM nostalgically. FRODO: It’s a little bit of home.

000

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

He shook his head, as if finding words useless, and murmured: "I love him. He's like that, and sometimes it shines through, somehow. But I love him, whether or no."

024

samfrodo.txt @samfrodo.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

They stood now; and Sam still holding his master's hand caressed it.
