Summary

Alan and Corey tread carefully as they walk with Pippin and Gandalf into the Hall of Kings to meet the Steward. We watch as Denethor plays a rhetorical game with Gandalf, weep as we remember Boromir, and smile as Pippin shocks both old men by offering his sword to the grumpier of the two. More time is spent on the palantíri, and we say farewell to The Tolkien Professor. Finally, we discuss how “or the world end” is either an unnecessary redundancy, or a great addition to wedding vows!

0:44.9	It might have been wild kind.
0:46.3	I don't know.
0:47.3	I mean, just to be fair, Corey, it's hard to believe this is the last of our four episodes
0:50.6	together.
0:51.6	It feels like we just started.
0:52.4	I hope the breakneck pace of our discussions won't keep you from returning sometime.
0:56.2	Well, I may need some time to recover.
0:58.1	You know, I've been feeling a little bit out of breath increasingly as the month has
