238 – Gondor Calling

With Gollum missing in action, Frodo and Sam get ready to flee from whoever is making the mysterious bird-calls.

But before the hobbits can give the Rangers of Ithilien a full account of who they are, what they’re doing, and whether they know anything about the skinny, toothless guy in the area fishing without a license, a skirmish begins with a passing regiment of Haradrim. All this, plus Sam reflects poignantly over the body of a fallen foe.
