SCENE: The following weekend. Frodo is earning money by pulling weeds in Lady Galadriel’s garden. She emerges from the back door of her house. Frodo looks up and sees her carrying a pitcher. She walks over toward the birdbath and empties the pitcher of water into the birdbath. She speaks to Frodo.
GALADRIEL Will you look into the mirror?
FRODO (thinking to himself) Mirror? It’s a birdbath. What is she? Crackers? Oh, well. Better humor her since she’s paying me to do this weeding.
He smiles and nods.
FRODO What will I see?
GALADRIEL What was. What is. What will be.
Frodo gazes into the water. He sees Miss Aragorn alone in her classroom. She is grading papers. The door opens and in walks Aragorn.
Frodo watches what transpires between the Ranger and his teacher. His heart shatters and tears well up in his eyes, then roll down his adorable Hobbit face.
Then he sees the gynnasium getting trashed with toilet paper and paint. Frodo is shocked when he sees who is doing it.
Frodo falls backward. He does not wish to see anymore that the mirror can reveal.
GALADRIEL I know what it was you saw, for that is also in my mind.
FRODO How could she? And how could he? He knows how I feel about her!
GALADRIEL You are in pain, little one. But do not despair. Time will be your friend, as it heals wounds such as the one you feel now.
FRODO I have to leave. I must see Aragorn.
GALADRIEL What will you tell him?
FRODO I’m not sure yet. I’ll have to think carefully first.
GALADRIEL A wise decision. Do not rush to speak in anger. He does care about you.
FRODO Yes, he does. He’s always looked out for me. I’ll see you next week, Lady Galadriel.
He leaves her backyard and heads home.
SCENE: The Soda Shop. A popular hangout of the students. Boromir is speaking with a group of his classmates.
BOROMIR Now the only way this is going to work is if we ALL cooperate. Can I count on your votes?
TEEN BOY You bet, Boromir. I think it’s a great plan.
TEEN GIRL Count me in, too.
BOROMIR Great! Well, that’s the last of it. Come the night of the Senior Prom, we will all see the plan of a genius, yours truly, come together! And it will be a beautiful sight, believe you me!
SCENE: Frodo’s home. He goes upstairs to the room he shares with the Ranger. He sees Aragorn reading a book. Frodo pauses. He still has not formed the right words in his mind to tell Aragorn he knows about the kiss that took place between him and Miss Arwen. Then he wonders if it would be better to say nothing. Who was he, a mere Hobbit, to stand in the way of their desire to be together?
ARAGORN Hello, Frodo. Back so soon from weeding Lady Galadriel’s garden?
FRODO Uh, yeah. I’ll go back there next week. I’m going to wash up for dinner. See ya.
ARAGORN Okay.
He smiles at Frodo, then goes back to reading his book.
SCENE: The home of Principal Elrond and Miss Arwen. Miss Arwen is doing needlepoint and thinking quietly to herself. She wonders if her father suspects anything about that night the gymnasium was trashed. She thinks back to that night and how she had very carefully made sure not to get any paint on herself when she painted the words on the wall and strewn toilet paper all over the gym. Her plan was to make Aragorn think she was in danger so that he would rush over to rescue her, then his feelings for her would surface again and she would again experience the joy of being held in his strong muscular arms and then he would kiss her. She didn’t care about her father’s rule about no fraternizing between faculty members and students. She yearns for Aragorn and is willing to defy her father. But her plan failed.
SCENE: Back at Frodo’s home. Frodo is thinking to himself as he washes his hands. That night when they had rushed over to the school they had not seen any Orcs who supposedly had trashed the gym and were supposedly trying to get at Miss Arwen who had barricaded herself in her father’s office. Lady Galadriel’s mirror had revealed to him what had really happened that night. But he does not understand why his teacher did all that. And what of the Cave Troll? Aragorn, Legolas, Boromir and Gimli killed the Orcs’s mascot to get back at them for something they did not do. Frodo feels extremely guilty about that.
