Scene 22
A bedroom in Minas Tirith. Gandalf and Pippin look a little scorched.
GANDALF: You just had to touch it, didn't you?
PIPPIN: That's all you do, isn't it? Nag and complain, just nag and complain!
GANDALF: Oh, shut up. We have more important things to worry about anyway. The orcs are here!
PIPPIN: Ooh! Orcs! Are those like peanuts?
GANDALF: …no.
PIPPIN: I like peanuts. I also like socks. And rainbows. And ponies. And….
GANDALF: OKAY, okay, I get it. Just stay here, and try to be helpful. Can you do that?
PIPPIN: And bunnies, and flowers, and canaries, and iguanas, and sloths, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and the green berries in the Old Forest that my sister ate one time and it gave her a huge rash right on her…
GANDALF: You know what, never mind. Just…try not to get killed, okay?
PIPPIN: And Merry, and Sam, and Frodo, even though Frodo stole my girlfriend in the third grade! The dirty rotten little…
GANDALF: …? Well, I'm off to fight orcs! Good luck to you!
PIPPIN: Ooh! Orcs! Are those like peanuts? (GANDALF slaps himself on the head)
