He would turn in exhausted triumph towards his army, but behind him we would see Sauron pick up his head and place it back on his neck. Gandalf would despair and look at the ground, knowing that Sauron cannot be killed while the Ring still exists (he would probably mutter something to this effect so that the audience understands this subtlety).

Isn't that Legolas' rôle, though? Or is
his job merely to exclaim loudly,
"He's putting his head back on!"?
