Gimli: Nothing, it's just a wisp of cloud.
Boromir: It's moving fast.. Against the wind.
Legolas: Crebain from Dunland!
Aragorn: Hide!
Boromir: Hurry!
Aragorn: Take cover!
(The Fellowship hurries to get their stuff and get into hiding. Sam puts out the fire. They hide behind rocks and in bushes. A huge amount of black birds flies over them, cawing loudly. They circle the hill twice, then turn and fly back towards Isengard. The Fellowship comes out from their hidingplaces)
Gandalf: Spies of Saruman! The passage south is being watched. We must take the Pass of Caradhras.
(The Fellowship walks in the deep snow on Caradhras. Frodo stumbles and falls, rolling down the slope towards Aragorn) Frodo: Ahh!
Aragorn: Frodo!
(Aragorn helps him to his feet, and Frodo searches around his neck for the Ring. Finding that it's gone, he looks back up to where he fell and sees it lying in the snow. Boromir sees it too and picks it up by its chain)
Aragorn: Boromir.
Boromir: It is a strange fate we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing. Such a little thing.
Aragorn: Boromir! Give the Ring to Frodo.
Boromir: (startles out of his thoughts, but walks down and hands it to Frodo) As you wish. I care not.
(Quickly, Frodo grabs the Ring from him. Boromir turns and resumes climbing. Aragorn releases the grip he had on his sword. The Crebain returns to the Caverns of Isengard. Saruman gets their message)
Saruman: So, Gandalf, you try to lead them over Caradhras. And if that fails, where then will you go? If the mountain defeats you will you risk a more dangerous road?
(The Fellowship with the exception of Legolas struggles through the deep snow. The voice of Saruman is heard)
Saruman: Cuiva nwalca Carnirasse; nai yarvaxea rasselya! *Wake up cruel Redhorn! May your horn be bloodstained!*
Legolas: There is a fell voice on the air.
Gandalf: It's Saruman!
(The first avalanche falls. The Fellowship barely manages to throw themselves towards the mountainside, avoiding it)
Aragorn: He's trying to bring down the mountain! Gandalf, we must turn back!
Gandalf: No!
(Gandalf takes a step forward, out of the snow, and chants out a spell)
Gandalf: Losto Caradhras, sedho, hodo, nuitho i 'ruith! *Sleep Caradhras, be still, lie still, hold your wrath!*
(Saruman stands on the Pinnacle of Orthanc and continues to cast spells)
Saruman: Cuiva nwalca Carnirasse; Nai yarvaxea rasselya; taltuva notto-carinnar! *Wake up cruel Redhorn! May your bloodstained horn fall upon enemy heads!*
(A lightning strikes the top of Caradhras, sending a second avalanche onto the Fellowship. Legolas pulls Gandalf away from the edge, and against the cliff just before the snow buries them completely. After a moment, they emerge from the snow)
Boromir: We must get off the mountain! Make for the Gap of Rohan and take the west road to my city!
Aragorn: The Gap of Rohan takes us too close to Isengard!
Gimli: If we cannot pass over a mountain, let us go under it. Let us go through the Mines of Moria.
(Gandalf looks at Gimli with a worried face. Flashback to Saruman in his chamber in Orthanc, reading in the book of lore)
Saruman: Moria. You fear to go into those mines. The dwarves delved too greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the darkness
