The Fellowship of the Ring Scene 14 Summary

  • We see the riders break into Bree and head for the Pony (which they located when Frodo put the ring on).
  • Then enter the inn and… stab everyone, and the movie ends.
  • Okay, actually they just stabbed a bunch of pillows. Strider and the hobbits are hiding out in a different inn nearby.
  • Strider explains that the riders were the nine kings of men who took the rings from Sauron. They are known as the Ring Wraiths, or the Nazgûl.
  • Then they take off, following Strider through the wilderness.
  • Sam questions the trust they're placing in him but Frodo argues that they don't really have a choice.
  • They cross a swamp (and skip a few meals) and finally camp out. They're getting closer to Rivendell, home of the elves.
  • At night, Strider sings lines from "The Lay of Leithian".
