I mean, even if Treebeard had the Ring on his twig and was totally convinced that it would yield some hot tree babes, the most the Ring could hope to achieve is alerting Sauron to its whereabouts and revealing to him the thoughts of a tree-person who was largely unconcerned with the goings-on of the outside world.

So you admit there's a possibility. That's all I've been trying to say. I'm not saying that's what will happen, for you may be right, I don't see Ents ever coming into possession of the Ring. I'm just simply saying, theoretically, if Treebeard happened to stumble upon it, I would think the Ring would use the Entwives to lure in the Ents. Now, what could the Ring accomplish by doing this?
Well you've said...

Which goes back to what I stated in my first post.

What was interesting that was brought up in a "Chapter-By-chapter" discussion was it appears that "unconscious" beings of who has the ring, are yet drawn to that person. For example the Watcher in the Water, the Orc Captain in Moria, are both drawn to Frodo, yet they are unaware that he has the ring.

If the Ring feels it can get back into the hands of Sauron, by being in the hands of an Ent, then it would do so. Since the Ents would most likely be dumbfounded, and not know how to use such a thing, none the less, they would take it because of what the Ring has to offer them (if anything). Or, they could pull a Bombadil and just not care and throw it away. IF the Ring saw any use in being in the possession of an Ent, it would use the Entwives, is all I'm saying.
