Sam
- Sam: [Both are overcome by exhaustion] Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?
- Frodo: No, Sam. I can't recall the taste of food... nor the sound of water... nor the touch of grass. I'm... naked in the dark, with nothing, no veil... between me... and the wheel of fire! I can see him... with my waking eyes!
- Sam: Then let us be rid of it... once and for all! Come on, Mr. Frodo. I can't carry it for you... but I can carry you!
- Galadriel: The power of the Three Rings is ended. The time has come... for the dominion of Men.
- Elrond: [in Elvish] The Sea calls us home.
- Bilbo: [smiling] I think I'm... quite ready for another adventure!
- [Bilbo climbs on board with Elrond. Galadriel follows with Celeborn]
- Gandalf: Farewell, my brave Hobbits. My work is now finished. Here at last, on the shores of the sea... comes the end of our Fellowship. I will not say do not weep, for not all tears are an evil.
- [Heads to the ship, then turns around, waiting]
- Gandalf: It is time, Frodo.
- Sam: What does he mean?
- Frodo: We set out to save the Shire, Sam. And it has been saved... But not for me.
- Sam: [weeping] You don't mean that. You can't leave.
- Frodo: [hands Sam the Red Book] The last pages are for you, Sam.
- [as he kills the three Orcs guarding Frodo]
- Sam: That's for Frodo! And for the Shire! *And that's for my old Gaffer!*
- Frodo: [after destroying the Ring] I can see the Shire. The Brandywine River. Bag End. The Lights in the Party Tree.
- Sam: Rosie Cotton dancing. She had ribbons in her hair. If ever I were to marry someone, it would have been her. It would have been her.
- [sits down and begins to cry]
- Frodo: [leans over and hugs him] I'm glad to be with you, Samwise Gamgee, here at the end of all things.
- Sam: FRODO!
- Frodo: I'm here, Sam.
- Sam: Destroy it!
- [Frodo holds the ring on its chain over the edge of the pit]
- Sam: Go on! Now! Throw it in the fire!
- [Frodo stares at the ring, the ring whispers to him]
- Sam: What are you waiting for? Just let it go!
- [Frodo turns and looks at Sam]
- Frodo: The ring is mine.
- [He snaps the chain and approaches the ring to his finger]
- Sam: No... no...
- [Frodo slips the ring on and vanishes]
- Sam: NO!
- Sam: Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?
- Frodo: No, Sam. I can't recall the taste of food... Nor the sound of water or touch of grass... I'm naked in the dark, with nothing. No veil between me and the ring of fire. I can see him with my waking eyes!
- Sam: Then let us be rid of it! Once and for all! Come on Mr. Frodo. I can't carry it for you! But I can carry you! Come on!
- [He picks Frodo up and starts carrying him up the slopes of Mount Doom]
- Galadriel: The power of the Three Rings is ended. The time has come... for the dominion of Men.
- Elrond: I Aear c?n ven na mar.
- [Elvish: The Sea calls us home]
- Bilbo: I think I'm... quite ready for another adventure.
- [Climbs on board with Elrond. Galadriel gets on boat with Celeborn]
- Gandalf: Farewell... my brave Hobbits. My work is now finished. Here at last, on the shores of the sea... comes the end of our Fellowship. I will not say, Do not weep... not all tears are an evil.
- [Heads to the ship, then turns around, waiting]
- Gandalf: It is time, Frodo.
- Sam: What does he mean?
- Frodo: We set out to save the Shire, Sam. And it has been saved. But not for me.
- Sam: You don't mean that. You can't leave.
- Sam: What are you up to? Sneaking off, are we?
- Gollum: Sneaking? Sneaking? Fat Hobbit is always so polite. Smeagol shows them secret ways that nobody else could find, and they say "sneak!" Sneak? Very nice friend. Oh, yes, my precious. Very nice, very nice.
- Sam: All right, all right! You just startled me is all. What were you doing?
- Gollum: Sneaking.
- Sam: [tearing the spider silk away from Frodo's face] Oh no! Frodo... Mr. Frodo, wake up... Don't leave me here alone. Don't go where I can't follow... Wake up.
