I may be whipped but it doesn't mean I'm finished. I plan to file a civil suit against that Aragorn fellow... somebody owes me a precious and my life. After all, why am I the one who has to die? Why not Gimli, or the nasty, rude hobbit?
I'm going to get me the meanest lawyer I can. I hear they breed them in Mordor. I'll have my vengeance... in this lifetime!!! HA!HA!HA! (evil gollum laugh)
Still, I feel bad about it. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Gollum.
I really had an emotional response seeing those whip marks on him.
After all, why am I the one who has to die? Oh yeah, that's right, Smeagol's the victim...all the bad things happened to Smeagol...nothing was his fault....
What's next? Reparations?
