Book I: Chapter 2: Sauron Knows About It And He's Gonna Get You
12 April 3018
Frodo: "So, what's the deal with
my ring?"
Gandalf: "It's a Great Elven ring - it may possess you."
Frodo: "Oh."
Gandalf: "And it could turn you into a compulsive liar."
(Gandalf takes the RING from Frodo and throws it in the FIRE; LETTERS appear on it.)
Gandalf: "This is the One Ring and it is very evil."
Frodo: "How come I get it?"
(Gandalf goes off on a long EXPLANATION about the HISTORY of the RING and Sauron, the Dark Lord of MORDOR, but never gives Frodo a STRAIGHT ANSWER.)
Gandalf: "Here's the problem though: Sauron knows about it and he's gonna get you."
(Frodo WHINES a lot and then decides to LEAVE the Shire.)
Gandalf: "That's a good idea. I'm surprised you thought of it. Call yourself "Mr. Underhill" and take Sam with you."
Sam: "Yippee!"
