Humor, Samwise Gamgee versus Frodo Baggins
Flash!
Sam looked around. The sky was no longer red. It was daylight! He was in the same woods with Mr. Frodo and the Earthkin. The two hobbits were dressed in their typical garb, but something had changed!
Frodo couldn't talk. That didn't make sense! Why couldn't he speak? Where had his voice gone? Oh, there it was… but it was different! Higher pitched! Oh no!
"SQUEAK!" Sam bellowed in shock.
"Squeak? Squeak. SQUEAK!" Frodo said, testing his voice.
"GAHHH!" Sam was furious. He couldn't take this anymore! "AAAAAHHH! My voice is back!" He cried in triumph. Yes! He missed his voice so much!

Hurt/Comfort, Frodo Baggins
Frodo was glad that Sam got his voice back. He tried his own, but it still made squeaking sounds. This was hopeless! He needed his voice back! Wasn't there a way to get it back? He looked at Sam, as his friend joined him over by a log.
Good old Samwise Gamgee, always there to help out a friend during their time of need.
Frodo grinned in recognition. "Thanks, Sam." He gasped in delight. "My voice is back! Yes!" Now he could focus on other tasks, like getting out of these woods! That sounded like a brilliant idea! Now, all they needed was a plan.

Mystery, Samwise Gamgee
"Where are we?" Sam inquired, rubbing his chin. He looked around in curiosity. How did he get here? Where was the way out? He and Mr. Frodo would need to leave this forest soon before the Gaffer called out a search party. Would Mr. Frodo understand? Sam hoped so, but then he'd never been outside Hobbiton for this long unless he was camping.
Only, where was Mr. Frodo? And why was there a bright beam of light shining down on Mr. Frodo's spot? This was one mystery Samwise Gamgee did not want to solve by himself! That was for sure!
