Aragorn nodded imperceptibly.

PIPPIN: You two are getting quite good at this.

Two hours later...

Boromir shook his head.

GIMLI: I need more practice.

Boromir nodded.

GIMLI: You hobbits have good ears.

GIMLI: Om owm e-I-um.

SAM: Say again?

GIMLI: OM OWM E-I-UM!!!

VOICE: The dwarf yawns so loud we could have shot him in the dark.

Gimli was incensed.

GIMLI: I was not yawning! I was saying- "Look out behind you"!

VOICE: Where?

GIMLI: Not you, stupid. The hobbits. We were playing a game. Who are you anyway?

VOICE: I am Haldir, captain of the Lothlorien border patrol. And you called me Stupid.

ARAGORN: Gimli....

LEGOLAS: Haldir! Old buddy old friend! Haven't seen you for ages! How've you been? I see your sisters have grown tall!

ARAGORN: Legolas...

HALDIR: I don't have any sisters.

BOROMIR: Then who are those girls behind you?

ARAGORN: Boromir....

HALDIR: My brothers.

ARAGORN: sigh Um, so, Haldir! Go your promotion I see. Captain indeed, you deserve it. How are my future grand-parents in law feeling lately?

HALDIR: Arwen said 'Yes'?

ARAGORN: Uhh...ask Legolas.

LEGOLAS: What?? Ask me what?

ARAGORN: She writes him letters.

HALDIR: So? She writes me letters too.

ARAGORN: Et tu, Haldir? deep sigh

HALDIR: Ummmm.

SAM: He said, "I don't know".

Haldir glared at Sam banefully.

HALDIR: Follow me. The Lady is waiting.

Haldir's sis—er, brothers—cut down the net.

FELLOWSHIP: OW!!!
