The Chamber of Mayhembûl
Gandalf: Hrrm, harumph, this is the fabled tome of Crázy Captiöns, and long has it thought to have been lost...
Frodo: But what does it say, Gandalf?
Gandalf: Hmm? Hmm, that is the question, my dear Hobbit. Legend says that the tome of Crázy Captiöns has been the pinnacle of human thoughts, its greatest achievement, its most enduring thread. I read it now with the utmost anticipation...hmm, hmm, yes..."Not Left Handed"..."Meela and the Steward"...puns, puns, more puns..."Mount Zoom"...and...what's this? "Gandalf the Grey Uncloaked"? Piff and tosh! It's just a load of rubbish.
Pippin: I don't know Gandalf, I thought that last one was rather hilarious.
Gandalf: Fool of a Took!
Boromir: Disco King, really?
Sam: Begging your pardon Master Gandalf, but I actually find that all of the pants jokes have me rolling in the aisles, if you follow me.
Frodo: Gandalf, what is Mapquest and why is it so stupid?
Aragorn: Come to think of it Gandalf, didn't I just accidentally run into you the other night...
Gandalf: Shut up!
