The scene changes to the Pass of Cirith Ungol. Frodo and Gollum are asleep but Sam is lying trying to fight sleep off. He finally loses the battle and drops off. Gollum opens his eyes, instantly awake. He sneaks over and opens the back pack. He reaches in and takes out all the lembas wrappings.

GOLLUM: Ech!

He recoils and then returns to what he was doing. He crumbles the lembas over Sam as he sleeps and then throws the rest over the cliff. Sam wakes suddenly aware of Gollum.

SAM: What are you up to? Sneaking off are we?

GOLLUM: Sneaking? Sneaking? Fat Hobbit is always so polite. Smeagol shows them secret ways that nobody else could find and they say sneak! Sneak? Very nice friend, oh yes my precious very nice , very nice!

SAM: Alright! Alright! You just startled me is all. What were you doing? (He looks over the cliff.)

GOLLUM: Sneaking.

SAM: Fine, have it your own way. (He shakes Frodo by the shoulder) I'm sorry to wake you Mr Frodo but we have to be moving on. (Frodo sits up.)

FRODO: It's dark still.

SAM: It's always dark here. (He feels in the pack for the lembas, there is just a leaf wrapping left.) It's gone! (He searches some more) The elven bread! (He looks at Frodo)

FRODO: What? That's all we have left!

Sam looks at Gollum.

SAM: He took it. He must have.

GOLLUM: Smeagol? No, no, not poor Smeagol. Smeagol hates nasty elf bread. (Frodo looks at him.)

SAM: You're a lying rat! What did you do with it?

FRODO: (looking at Sam suspiciously) He doesn't eat it. (He stands up) He can't have taken it.

GOLLUM: Look, what's this? (He brushes lembas crumbs off Sam's shoulder) Crumbs on his jacketses. He took it! (pointing) He took it! (He jumps down in front of Frodo) I've seen him, he's always stuffing his face when master's not looking.

Frodo glares at Sam

SAM: That's a filthy lie! ( he hits Gollum) You stinking, two faced sneak! (Sam grabs him by the throat and starts punching him.)

FRODO: Sam!

SAM: Call me (He continues to punch Gollum)

FRODO: Stop it! (Sam punches him some more. Frodo pulls him off)

SAM: I'll kill him!

FRODO: Sam, no! (He collapses down)

SAM: Oh my! I'm sorry. I didn't mean it to go so far. I was just so, so angry! Here just let's just rest a bit.

FRODO: I'm all right.

SAM: No. No you're not all right, you're exhausted. It's that Gollum. It's this place. It's that thing around your neck. (Frodo looks at him suspiciously) I could help a bit. I could carry it for a while (camera focuses in on Frodo's suspicious eyes), carry it for a while (showing Sam's mouth in close up) I could carry it I could carry it Share the load share the load share the load (a voice echoes in Frodo's head. He shoves hard at Sam.)

FRODO: Get away!

SAM: I don't want to keep it. (Frodo stands up away from him eyeing him suspiciously) I just want to help.

Gollum appears from behind Frodo.

GOLLUM: See? See? He wants it for himself. (Frodo looks at Sam, very suspicious now)

SAM: Shut up you! (He stands up) Go away! Get out of here!

FRODO: No Sam! It's you! (Sam looks at him upset) I'm sorry Sam. (Gollum watches from behind Frodo with a sly smile on his face)

SAM: (crying) But he's a liar! He's poisoned you against me.

FRODO: You can't help me any more.

SAM: You don't mean that.

FRODO: Go home.
