• Treebeard : We have just agreed...

  [Merry and Pippin lean in] 

  Merry : Yes?

  Treebeard : I have told your names to the Entmoot, and we have agreed you are not Orcs.

  Pippin : Well, that's good news.

• Treebeard : [after seeing the torn-down forest around Isengard]  Saruman! A wizard should know better!

  [loud yell] 

  Treebeard : There is no curse in Elvish, Entish, or the tongues of men for this treachery.

  Pippin : Look, the trees! They're moving!

  Merry : Where are they going?

  Treebeard : They have business with the Orcs. My business is with Isengard tonight, with rock and stone.

  [Ents emerge from the woods, following Treebeard] 

  Treebeard : Hroom, hm, come, my friends. The Ents are going to war. It is likely that we go to our doom. The last march of the Ents.

• [Pippin drinks some Ent-draught, and grows in height] 

  Merry : You're taller.

  Pippin : Who?

  Merry : You!

  Pippin : Than what?

  Merry : Than *me*!

  Pippin : I've always been taller than you.

  Merry : Pippin, everyone knows *I'm* the tall one. *You're* the short one.

  Pippin : Please, Merry. You're what, three-foot-six? At the most? Whereas me, I'm pushing three-seven, three-eight.

  Merry : Three-foot-eight? You did something.

• Treebeard : Many of these trees were my friends. Creatures I had known from nut or acorn.

  Pippin : I'm sorry, Treebeard.

  Treebeard : They had voices of their own. Saruman! A wizard should know better!

• [from extended version] 

  Merry : [watching Saruman look out at the ruin of Isengard from the tower]  He doesn't look too happy, does he?

  Pippin : Not too happy at all, Merry.

  Merry : Still, I suppose the view would be quite nice from up there.

  Pippin : Oh yes, it's a quality establishment. I hear the staff are VERY good.

• Merry : [of the Entmoot]  It's been going for hours.

  Pippin : They must have decided something by now.

  Treebeard : Decided? No, we have just finished saying "Good Morning".

  Merry : But it's night time already! You can't take forever!

  Treebeard : Now, don't be hasty, master Meriadoc.

  Merry : We're running out of time!

• Pippin : Merry?

  Merry : What, Pip?

  Pippin : I'm hungry.

• Merry : Why are there so few of you, when you live so long? Are there Ent children?

  Treebeard : [Sadly]  Burárum. There have been no Entlings for a terrible long count of years.

  Merry : Why is that?

  Treebeard : We lost the Entwives.

  Pippin : Oh, I'm sorry. How did they die?

  Treebeard : Die? No. We *lost* them. And now, we cannot *find* them. I don't suppose you've seen Entwives in the Shire?

  Merry : Can't say that I have. You, Pip?

  Pippin : What do they look like?

  Treebeard : Hrrooom... I... don't... remember... now.

• Pippin : And whose side are you on?

  Treebeard : Side? I am on nobody's side, because nobody is on my side, little Orc.

• Pippin : The closer we are to danger, the farther we are from harm. It's the last thing he'll expect.

  Merry : Are you mad? We will be caught for sure.

  Pippin : Not this time.

• Pippin : [of Treebeard]  It's talking, Merry. The tree is talking.

• Pippin : [of Treebeard]  Don't talk to it, Merry. Don't encourage it.

• [extended edition] 

  Ugluk : The prisoners go to Saruman, alive and unspoiled.

  Grishnakh : Alive? Why alive? Do they give good sport?

  [lashes his tongue] 

  Ugluk : They have something. An Elvish weapon. The master wants it for the war.

  Peregrin "Pippin" Took : [whispers to Merry]  They think we have the Ring.

  Meriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck : Shh! As soon as they find out we don't, we're dead.

• [extended edition; Merry and Pippin are in Fangorn Forest] 

  Meriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck : [looks around]  Hello? Treebeard? Where's he gone?

  Peregrin "Pippin" Took : I had the loveliest dream last night. There was this large barrel full of pipe weed, and we smoked all of it.

  [Merry smiles] 

  Peregrin "Pippin" Took : And then... you were sick.

  [Merry is not amused] 

  Peregrin "Pippin" Took : [leans back against a tree]  I'd give anything for a whiff of Old Toby.
