PRESENTS

The Fellowship was leaving.

GALADRIEL: And now it is time to say farewell. You have had your rest, now time for your Quest.

GIMLI: Ah, Lady G.! Your sweet poetry! Tis music to my ears, nearly brings me to tears!

GALADRIEL: I have presents for you all. For Boromir, I have a bracelet.

BOROMIR: Um. Thanks?

GALADRIEL: For Legolas I have a bow.

LEGOLAS: Haha! I get an Elfly present; shoot baddies with, I—hey!

ARAGORN: What?

BORMIR: Ha! Elfly Present! Ribbons! Elves wear bows! Hahaha!

Legolas ran off to sulk under a tree, and Boromir joined him.

GALADRIEL: For you Aragorn,

ARAGORN:Uh-oh.

GALADRIEL: I have already given you your gift. That necklace. I gave it to my daughter, and she gave it to hers, and she gave it to you.

ARAGORN: Cheap-o.

Aragorn joined Legolas and Boromir.

GALADRIEL: For you, Frodo, I give you—

FRODO: Let me guess. You let me keep the Ring. That's your gift to me.

GALADRIEL: Your mental acuity is astounding. It shall be a light for you in dark places. Now Sam. To you I give a glob of Jell-O. Raspberry flavored.

SAM: Thank you.

GALADRIEL: Merry and Pippin. To you I give these bottles.

PIPPIN: Hmm. Mr. Bubbles. Cool.

GALADRIEL: And now for my dear Dwarf, who appreciates so well my poetic talents. What would he have from me?

GIMLI: Uh, well, I, um, heh, I guess...would it be too much, of course it would, uh...I daren't...oh all right. I would have one of your teeth, Most Talented of All Races. One of your pearly white teeth.

GALADRIEL: Why?

GIMLI: Because I'm a dentist. And your teeth are gorgeous.

GALADRIEL: Very well. Never let it be said that a Dwarf outdid an Elf in fairness. You may have all my teeth. Enjoy them.

Galadriel solemnly handed her dentures to an awed Gimli.

GALADRIEL: Euie ar a, oo!

MERRY: She said "Genuine Dwarf-make, too".

ARAGORN: That explains a lot.

BOROMIR: My bracelet is almost princely compared with dentures.
