Sam : [starts to panic] Mister Frodo? Frodo! Frodo!
[Frodo emerges from the bend in the path, looking puzzled]
Sam : I thought I'd lost you.
Frodo : What are you talking about?
Sam : It's just something Gandalf said.
Frodo : What did he say?
Sam : 'Don't you lose him Samwise Gamgee!' And I don't mean to.
Frodo : [amused] Sam, we're still in the Shire. What could possibly happen?
[Suddenly, Pippin bursts from the cornfield and knocks over Frodo. Merry, close behind, barrels out, knocking over Sam. Both have an armful of vegetables]
Pippin : Frodo? Merry! It's Frodo Baggins.
Merry : Hello Frodo!
Sam : Get off him!

Merry : 'Dunno why he is so upset. It's only a couple of carrots!
Pippin : And some cabbages. And those few bags of potatoes that we lifted last week and, and the mushrooms the week before!
Merry : Yes Pippin! My point is, he is clearly overreactin'. Run!
