Aragorn himself gets up from his throne and bows to them, seating them in his place. Gandalf leads them to the king, where an army greets them with cheers and praise. Sam wakes in a soft bed next to Frodo, whose right hand is missing a finger. The Mordor army flees, and Gandalf leaves the battle with the eagles to rescue Sam and Frodo from Mount Doom. The gate collapses, and Gandalf announces that Frodo has completed the quest. Even as they join the fight, the entire army of Mordor hesitates, and the Nazgûl flee. Frodo is himself againĪt the battle before the Black Gate, Gandalf announces the coming of the eagles. Sam and Frodo huddle on the mountainside, waiting for the lava to sweep them away. Gollum dances a mad celebration, but he stumbles and falls into the fire. Sam sees Gollum bite an invisible hand, and Frodo reappears clutching at his missing finger. Sam is knocked down by Gollum, who attacks the invisible Frodo, while Sauron realizes what is happening and sends the Nazgûl to the mountain. Sam enters a chamber in the mountain where he sees Frodo, but rather than cast the Ring into the fire, as he always intended, Frodo claims it for his own. Sam follows his master, unaware that Gollum continues to follow, maddened by his lust for the Ring. Sam offers to kill Gollum, but after Frodo leaves, Sam pities the debased creature too much to kill him and orders him away instead. Before Sam can move, Gollum attacks in an attempt to take the Ring from Frodo but throws Gollum off. For a moment the clouds break and they have a glimpse of the Eye of Sauron.įrodo collapses, convinced they have been seen, but Sam again picks him up to continue. They finally crawl onto Sauron's road from his fortress to the Cracks of Doom. When they reach the mountain, Sam carries his master, unsure of where they are headed but knowing they must continue. Instead, they cast off as much as they can spare, saving little more than food and their elven gifts. Sam offers to take it once again, but Frodo nearly draws his sword on him. Frodo grows steadily weaker, worn down by the physical and psychic burden of the Ring. Sam realizes that they will not have either the strength or the food to leave Mordor after destroying the Ring, but the realization only makes him more determined to see the quest to its end. A troop of orcs catches them on the road, but they are mistaken for orcs themselves and forced to join the march until they can escape. They learn from the overhead conversation of two orcs that Gollum still follows them. As the hobbits struggle along, they hear the death cry of the Witchking, but it does little to raise their spirits. He is so tired that he cannot even remember the Shire. Traveling through the rough and waterless country of Mordor is very difficult for Frodo, and he quickly abandons his heavy orcish mailshirt. They disguise themselves in orc clothing and leave the tower just before a Nazgûl arrives. Frodo warns his friend not to come between him and his burden again. When Sam reveals he took it for safety, for a moment Frodo sees him as an orc. Frodo fears that the orcs have taken the Ring and the quest has failed. He finds Frodo stripped and beaten in the topmost chamber of the tower. Although a warning sounds, he soon discovers that the orcs have killed each other. At the entrance to the fortress, he defeats a magical barrier with the phial of Galadriel. He realizes that if he wears the Ring inside Mordor, Sauron will immediately sense it and try to take it back.

The lure of power tempts him, but his love for Frodo and his own common sense outweigh the visions of the Ring. Sam awakens outside the underground gates of the Tower of Cirith Ungol, makes his way back out of the tunnel, and puts the Ring on again.
