To all you Monty Python fans out there:
"We are the wraiths who say 'Nee!'. We demand that you bring us a...Shrrrrubbery! Wait, wait, that's not it.....Ah yes. We demand that you bring us a...Rrrring!"
Gate-keeper at Mordor: Halt! Who goes there?
Frodo: It is I, Frodo, son of Drogo Baggins, from the village of Hobbiton. Bearer of the Ring,
...and this is my trusty servant Sam. We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search Mt. Doom, where I can throw the ring in. I must speak with your lord and master.
G-K: You're a hobbit carryin’ a ring!
Frodo: What?
G-K: You’re a hobbit! You can’t bear the One Ring!
Frodo: So? We have ridden since the stench of death in this land, through the kingdom of Mordor, through-
G-K: Where'd you get the ring?
Frodo: I inherited it.
G-K: Inherited it? From who? The ring's tropical!
Frodo: What do you mean?
G-K: Well, this is a temperate zone.
Frodo: The ring may go south with the elf or the ringwraiths or the dwarfs may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land?
G-K: Are you suggesting rings migrate?
Frodo: Not at all. They could be carried.
G-K: What? A dwarf carrying a ring?
Frodo: It could carry it on a chain!
G-K: It's not a question of how he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A hobbit could not carry a one pound ring.
