ARS: So, what have you brought in today?
Frodo: It's an old ring.
Sam: A precious ring... if you don't mind me sayin'
so Sir.
ARS: Yes, well, what can you tell us about this ring?
Frodo: It's pretty old. I got it from my Uncle who found
it in Mesopotamia, I think...
Sam: And it's precious!
Frodo: Yeah, it's precious.
ARS: Is there anything particular about the ring?
Frodo: Well, yes, if you put it in the fire, it gets
bigger and these letters appear.
ARS: Letters... hmm. What do these letter say?
Frodo: I dunno. It's in Mesopotamian, I think. An old
guy named Grandlolf or something read them once. It
was some poem about the ring being a ruler or something.
ARS: (Chuckling) Looks more like a ring than a ruler
to me!
Frodo: Yeah, ruler... I get it.
Sam: Tell 'im what happens when you put it on Mr. Frodo!
Frodo: Oh yeah... you disappear when you put the ring
on.
ARS: Disappear?
Frodo: You know, turn invisible, so people can't see
you.
ARS: Well, that is special and... considering what you
just told me, I think I can tell you something more
about your ring!
Frodo: Wow, cool.
ARS: This is indeed a ring of power. It's magic.
Sam: Duh.
ARS: As a matter of fact, this is the ONE ring, the
RULING ring, as that Glandrolf told you.... with this
ring, you can control all of the other magic rings in
the world.
Frodo: Wow... cool.
Sam: Well, sir, what we were wonderin' if it's not too
much trouble an' all you know... well, we was wonderin'
what it's worth, don't you know.
ARS: Well, I haven't seen a Ring of Power come up for
auction in ages, but I think it's safe to say that this
Ring may be worth millions... perhaps more if its original
owner, Sauron, is still alive and kickin'.
Sam: Glory and Oliphants Mr. Frodo, you're rich again!
Frodo: And to think, that Grandrolf fellow told me to
destory it!
ARS: Of course he did, Lad.... Of course he did.
