I never found that part of the plot particularly confusing. I just guessed that Sam either knew that they were in, or close to, Farmer Maggot's field, and when he saw Merry and Pippin running like the dickens, clasping lots of vegetables, he put two and two together. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Sam could be well aware that Merry & Pippin had a habit of stealing from a Farmer Maggot.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>And for the record I didn't like the part of the plot that had Merry and Pippin join Frodo and Sam. They showed them to the ferry, then just never went home...
