Following an insensitive remark about the \u201cdarksome\u201d halls of Khazad-d\xfbm by Samwise at bedtime, Gimli delivers an impassioned defense of his people\u2019s lifestyle choices \u2014 in verse \u2014 and Gandalf gives a history lesson about Moria and mithril. Safe in his (really valuable) mail-shirt, Frodo takes the first watch\u2026 and starts to believe he may not be the only one doing the watching. We revisit the ill will of Caradhras, spoil Gimli\u2019s family reunion plans, and terrify our vegetarian listeners (and Alan) with way too much talk of meat extract.
