A line from AragornBoromir! I don't know what part you've played in this mischief, but help now! Go after Merry and Pippin and guard them!
Aragorn There is a hill called Weathertop about halfway between here and Rivendell. We will make for it tomorrow. So will Gandalf...if he can.
Aragorn I said you have no choice, Sam! [Sam flinches] Because if I wanted the Ring for myself, I could have it, now. [unsheathes his sword and raises it to the air] My name is Aragorn, son of Arathorn. If by life or death I can save you, I will.
Aragorn Boromir!
I tried to take the Ring from Frodo. I am sorry. I have failed. Aragorn...Aragron. Go to Minas Tirith. Save my people. Aragorn...
Aragorn I will go. I promise you.
The halflings...Orcs took them. I think...they are not dead. [dies]
They were here, but where they went, I can’t tell.
Aragorn I don’t understand these other marks.
[Enter Gandalf, disguised] ]
Look! Your bow, Legolas! It’s Saruman! Shoot, before he puts a spell on us! Quick!
Elf, Man, and Dwarf together! A rare sight in these times!
Now! Stop him, Legolas!
Aragorn Gandalf! Beyond all hope! Gandalf!
Yes. Yes, that was my name!
Aragorn What happened?
Long time I fell. Long I fell, and he fell with me. His fire was about me. I was burned! Ever he clutched me, and ever I hewed him, far under the living Earth… until at last he fled back, up the secret ways of Moria. There, we fought, above the mists of the earth, and the peak of the mountain was wreathed with lightning. I wandered far, on roads I will not tell. Naked I was sent back, until my task is done.
