Maybe Frodo was actually going to save himself to show us that "Look, he's not completely helpless/hopeless."
It sounds like the Uruk was already under the water from the interview. How could that be? Was he taking a lovely little snorkling trip, while his bros were off trying to kill the Fellowship?
Here's another question about this scene: How close is Rauros? How much danger is there of them falling over the waterfall the more time they linger? Maybe that was the reason PJ changed it, because it was too long, and they would've fallen be the time the Uruk was fought off.
