Several hours later, hobbits are doing normal party stuff: dancing, talking, drinking, eating, eating some more, eating even more.(I could go on like this for pages, but I'll spare you).

Shadowcat, no Frodo ( why are these so darn hard to remember?) was doing his infamous (meaning famous in a bad way) "Russian-Chicken Dance." You know the one, where Frodo sticks his fists in his armpits and flaps his newfound "wings" before bobbing up and down stupidly, grinning the whole time as people stared at him and laughed. He continues dancing while Pippin with laser vision (Cyclops, people!) plays a ukulele in a hobbit band, Merry uses telekinesis to wait tables (Jean!) and Spyke, wait that's Sam, drinks tankard after tankard full of ale. Bilbo is wandering around greeting guests and telling young hobbit children inappropriately disturbing, nightmare-causing stories. Actually, they were just random excerpts from 101 Ways to Cook Shirefolk, or perhaps Hobbit-Slaughtering for Utter Morons, or maybe a gruesome, botched combination? Finally, we find Gandalf, once again, entertaining himself and hobbits with dangerous, flammable objects, and encouraging young inexperienced hobbits to follow in his footsteps.

Several minutes later, we see Frodo dance out of the crowd (much to the relief of hobbits who actually know how to dance) and bang into a bench, conveniently landing right next to Sam. Frodo, being the very nosy friend that he is, begins to pester Sam about his (known) crush.

"C'mon, Sam!" he insists. "Ask Rosie for a dance! (Pronounced "donce")"

"I think I'll just have another ale," replies Sam sullenly. Oooooooooooo, he's a ladies man, er, hobbit. (Yeah, right!)

"Oh no you shan't!" cries Frodo before grabbing Spy-Sam and throwing him onto the dance floor, er, dance field, perfectly positioned to start dancing with Rosie immediately. Frodo, after tugging numerous pointy sticks out of his hands, begins to laugh at Sam. In argument to common theory, Frodo is laughing, not at Sam's success, but at the ridiculously hilarious picture they make. She's taller than he is! *Snigger!*

Several minutes later, we see Jea-Merry (!) and Cy-Pippin (!!) sneaking up to Gandalf's cart of dangerous explosives. Merry uses his powers of telekinesis to help (more like toss) Pippin into the cart. After carefully sorting through for several minutes, they finally select the largest and most dangerous firework and take it away. We briefly see Gandalf laughing merrily (cackling insanely?), once again encouraging young hobbits to grab dangerous hot things. Geez, this must be some sort of hobby.

Now back to Jean and Cyclops, er, Merry and Pippin. Pippin uses his laser vision to light the fuse, and says brightly to Merry, "Done!"

"We're s'posed to stick it in the ground!"

"It is in the ground!"

"Outside!"

"This was your idea! (Suspiciously feminine scream)"

The firework launches, carrying the tent with it. It bursts into the air, explodes the tent, turns into a dragon, and swoops down to attack helpless, quaint, short (no duh!). Only Gandalf would make or own something like this (I think). Anyway, Frodo decides that it's time for him to fulfill his quota (1) of heroic acts per chapter. He runs up to Bilbo, warning the fashion-emergency poster hobbit to duck, because there's a dragon about to attack him. Since Bilbo is protesting, Frodo runs forward and tackles him preventing the chance of having him look even worse, due to singed hair. The firework dragon clears the hobbits, and drifts away, sparking into nothing and then, just as the hobbits are getting a good put down, it explodes once again into a spectacular, normal firework.

We see Merry and Pippin looking very disheveled, but very excited. As they talk excitedly about Gandalf's explosives and start off to get a second one, their ears are nearly ripped out as Gandalf grabs them. We momentarily see their true, ugly faces before they look up at Gandalf.

"Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took,"says Gandalf all smarty- pantsishly. "I should have known. (The following was deleted from the movie.) Who else would foolishly steal my precious fireworks? Well, you'll be sorry, make no mistake!"

The scene changes, and we see Merry and Pippin doing the dishes as Gandalf sullenly fills his lungs with unhealthy toxins, having been forbidden from lighting any more fireworks.

We hear cries for Bilbo to make a speech (they must have been veeeeeery drunk to have asked for such a thing.). He makes references to Bagginses, Boffins, Tooks, Brandybucks, Grubbs, Chubbs, Burrowses, Hornblowers, Bolgers, Bracegirdles, Goodbodies, Brockhouses, Proudfoots (or was it Proudfeet?), and Sackville-Bagginses. Then he goes on to say how old he is (which everyone already knew) and why they were all gathered at the party place (besides to celebrate a birthday and eat). He talks about Frodo (during this part, all the guests almost fall asleep, or maybe that was just me). Then comes the grand finale.

"I regret to announce that this is the end," says Bilbo, taking something out of his pocket and looking quite suspicious. "I am going now. I wish you all a very fond farewell. GOOD BYE."

Then he disappeared.
