midgetman has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

You guys are all so wrong!!! The rope coming "At Sam's call" was a hint that Smeagol was close by. Tolkien did not like to promote "magic" in his books. Indeed there where many passages that indicate that. One was even uttered by Galadriel. I have studdied these matters and it was gollum who undid the rope. It obviously did not "come at Sam's call" and did not have a bad knot. If you doubt sam's rope skills you can take that up with me!! You may say "why did Gollum not know they where down there? THe answer is he got the rope but did not know how long it was there or who placed it there. He proboably too the rope and dropped it. Shunning the elvish feel to it.
