Bilbo Baggins:
[feeling the One Ring in his pocket; to himself]
What... have I got... in my pocket?
[Gollum; who is crouching on a stalagmite, holding a rock he is meaning to throw at Bilbo, scowls, thinking Bilbo's question as a riddle]
Gollum:
That's not fair... That's not fair! It's against the *rules*!
[In a hissy fit, Gollum throws the rock down. Bilbo looks on in amazement]
Gollum:
[pouting]
Ask us another one!
Bilbo Baggins:
[points his sword at Gollum]
No, no. You said, "ask me a question." Well, *That* is MY question. "What Have I Got In My Pocket?"
[Gollum growls in reluctance as he jumps down from his stalagmite perch and crouches on the floor beside his hideout]
Gollum:
[holding up only two fingers]
It must give us three guesses, precious! It must give us *three*!
Bilbo Baggins:
Three guesses, very well. Guess away!
Gollum:
[holds up his hands]
Handses!
Bilbo Baggins:
[shows Gollum that his left hand is out of the pocket]
Wrong. Try again.
[Gollum groans in frustration]
Gollum:
[rummaging through his belongings in his hole; to himself]
I've got Fishses bones, Goblinses bones, Bat's wings, food...
[He growls; thinking hard; he slaps his hands down repeatedly when...]
Gollum:
[shouts]
*KNIFE*! Oh, shut up!
Bilbo Baggins:
Wrong again. Last guess.
Gollum:
String... or nothing!
Bilbo Baggins:
Two guesses at once. Wrong both times.
Gollum:
[groans; defeated]
Ooooooohhh...
[as he groans; Gollum flops on his side. He lies in a fetal position as he sobs softly]
