*Chapter 8: Merry and the Television*
The instructor takes the overexcited Merry to his apartment and sits him on his couch in front of the television.

"Wha's this?" asks Merry.

"A television." Says the instructor, "Also known as a TV."

Merry stares at him blankly.

"Look." says the instructor, "You push this button," he pushes the power button on the TV, "and a moving picture comes up on the screen."

He shows Merry the buttons on the remote that work on the TV, Merry exclaiming all the while.

"Wot's these buttons do?" asks Merry, pushing the channel changing buttons.

"Those change the moving picture called a channel." Explains the instructor.

Merry pushes one of the channel-changing buttons so the screen is flashing through many different stations, when he sees a Barney show.

"Look instructor," says Merry, "it's a purple dinosaur with green spots!"

The instructor, Barney being his favorite show, sits down next to Merry and grabs the remote so he wouldn't change it.

They are both watching intently and singing along to the songs, when Barney introduces a new guy who is rather tall, and has long blonde hair.

"Hey!" exclaims Merry, "That guy looks like Legolas!"

The instructor thinks for a moment.

"It could be him. I remember a while ago in chapter 2 Barney gave him his card. But the old instructor took it away from his so how could he know what it said? Oh yes! When that instructor met his end Legolas must have gotten the card back from the instructor's pocket."

His mind returns back to the television set.

".Our new friend's name is Legolas." says Barney, affirming the instructor and Merry's suspicions that it is indeed Legolas.

The show ended, and the instructor gave the remote back to Merry.

"Watch whatever you want. I'm going to bed."

The instructor goes upstairs and Merry stays on the couch flipping through the channels.

Late into the night, people who pass by the window can see Merry hunched over with eyes glued to the TV.
