Sting Frodo says to Gollum...

I'm sitting here watching TTT and in the first scene where Sam and Frodo capture Gollum, Frodo says, "This is Sting. You have seen it before..."<BR>When?<BR>I just recently finished reading <I>The Hobbit</I>and I don't recall Bilbo revealing or threatening Gollum with Sting. So...<BR>Is this just a PJ-ism (adapted screneplay version) or am I missing something?

Gollum did see Sting, as far as I can remember. Wasn't that the reason he didn't just lunge at Bilbo and eat him straight away? I don't have the book, but I'm pretty sure that's how it was.

Sting

Thank you, LePetitChoux...I just looked it up and Bilbo did have <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>his dagger <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> brandished when Gollum stepped out of his boat on to dry ground.<BR>And as you said, Gollum had to find out more about the sword in his face plus he wasn't that hungry at the time.<BR>Questioned answered, gracias.

Sting

And yes, that quote is straight from The Two Towers. PJ did not make it up.
