Book IV, Chapter 1: Naked And Being Whipped
Sam: "Possession? Ha! I laugh in the face of possession!"
(He uses Galadrial's PRESENT to get past the stone WATCHERS at the door. He searches some MORE, SINGS and finds Frodo BUTT naked and being WHIPPED [don't ask] by an Orc called Snaga. This decidedly NARKS Sam off. R.I.P. Snaga.)
Frodo: "Oooh, what happened?"
Sam: "Don't ask."
(Sam thus takes the opportunity of not giving Frodo a STRIAGHT ANSWER. Frodo WHINES about losing the RING. Sam CASUALLY explains that he has the RING. Frodo takes the opportunity to INSULT him, then unconvincingly BLAMES it on the RING and they DECK themselves out in Orc gear.)
Sam: "We've got to get out of here!"
Frodo: "Never mind that, we need food."
(They EAT and use Galadrial's PRESENT again. A BLACK RIDER turns up and does NOTHING.)

Book IV, Chapter 10: Renders Himself
Sam: "Ooops. Now what?"
(Sam DECIDES to take the RING, Sting and Galadrial's PRESENT and carry on. He doesn't get very FAR and puts on the RING to ESCAPE the Orcs patrolling the area.)
Orcs: "A body! And a really gooey mess!"
Shagrat: "Strip him and send word to Lugburz." (a.k.a. Barad-Dûr, a.k.a. Sauron's Place)
Gorbag: "What's the point? He's kicked it."
Shagrat: "You're a real prat, you know that? He's not dead."
Sam: "Uh-oh..."
(The Orcs put Frodo in the TOP of the TOWER and Sam RENDERS himself unconscious by jumping WILDLY at the door [please don't ask].)

Book IV, Chapter 9: Smelly Tunnel
Sam: "Arrgh!"
(They ESCAPE thanks to the PRESENT that Galadrial gave to Frodo, but now the spider is really ANNOYED and comes after them. Gollum TRIES to STRANGLE Sam, but ends up running AWAY with a rather NASTY back injury [don't ask].)

Book V, Chapter 2: Scared And Legolas
* * *
(Due to being
SMITTEN with Aragorn, Éowyn visits him in the
NIGHT [don't ask].)
Éowyn: "Will you take me with
you?"
Aragorn: "Nope."
* * *
(Aragorn, Gimli,
Legolas and the Rangers (The Grey Company) TRUDGE
through the Paths of the Dead; Gimli GRUMBLES
about being SCARED and Legolas TALKS to the
horses. The Company LEAVES the Paths of the Dead,
but are FOLLOWED by some dead warriors [don't
ask].)
