Reminds me of a Dead Ringers sketch, set in Orthanc:
Gríma: My lord Saruman! Isildur's Heir has returned! The armies of Men have crushed out forces at Helm's Deep, and even now march towards us! What are we to do?!
Saruman: Do not worry...I have a plan! My armies...they will fight to the last breath!
Gríma: Yes, my lord! And you...what of yourself?
Saruman: I shall hide in a hole in the ground for 9 months.
Gríma: Ah, there ot rally our armies for a blistering counter-attack!
Saruman: Nooo...just to hide in the ground.
Gríma: So you...you won't be leading us on in the resistance..?
Sarumna: No, I'm just going to hide in a hole in the ground. Trust me.
