My youngest and I were watching TTT the other night, as, well, it was on and she was up. We watched the scene were Gollum was taken by Faramir's men at the Forbidden Pool, and as this was the theatrical version, we don't get the joy of seeing Gollum being pummeled - tenderized - like so much meat.

Anyway, Gollum hides in a corner and Smeagol and Gollum begin to talk again. Faramir waits in anticipation, as seemingly here's the answer to Frodo's secret. Gollum finally turns, and with all of the venom he has in him, says something then "PRECIOUS!"

My daughter looked at me and said, in her best Gollumy voice, "The monkey said, 'Precious!'"
