Synopsis[edit | edit source]

The Nazgûl enter Bree, riding down the gatekeeper. They enter into the Prancing Pony, their terror overcoming Barliman Butterbur. The hobbits are shown to be sleeping as the Ringwraiths poise their blades above what seem to be the Hobbits and then stab downwards as Sam jolts awake. However, the hobbits are actually in another room entirely. The Ringwraiths have only stabbed empty beds. They yell out in anger as the other hobbits wake up. Aragorn briefly explains that the Ringwraiths were once great Men who were given Rings of Power. The rings converted their recipients into wraiths that are under the control of Sauron. They now exist solely to find the One Ring and will hunt Frodo as long as he bears it. Aragorn leads the Hobbits away from Bree as the sun dawns to get away from the Ringwraiths.

The hobbits escape from Bree. Merry and Frodo briefly discuss Aragorn's trustworthiness. Frodo decides to trust Aragorn for the moment. The hobbits briefly stop to make a second breakfast before Aragorn reprimands them. Eventually they reach the Midgewater Marshes.
