48. The Battle of the Pellenor Fields
[On Pelennor Fields, the Rohirrim are routing the orcs.]
Éomer: "Drive them back to the river!"
Théoden: "Make safe this city!"
[As the Rohirrim drive away the Orcs, giant war Oliphaunts (Mûmakil) come into view.]
[Haradrim, mounted on the Mûmakil, blow horns.]
[The Mûmakil run past the retreating Orcs.]
[The King of Rohan does not hesitate.]
Théoden: "Reform the line! Reform the line! Sound the charge!"
[Gamling blows his horn.]
Théoden: "Rohirrim! Charge!"
[The Rohirrim run headlong into the Mûmakil, which dwarf them.]
[The Oliphaunts crush many Rohirrim, although some hit the beasts with arrows and spears.]
[Haradrim shoot arrows down at the Rohirrim.]
[Oliphaunts trample some of the Rohirrim.]
[Gamling rides under a Mûmakil, shooting arrows into it's belly.]
[Éomer twirls his spear and hurls it at one of the Haradrim captains.]
[The Oliphaunt staggers and falls into another Mûmakil.]
[Éowyn and Merry ride between the legs of the beasts.]
Éowyn (to Merry): "Take the reins. Pull it left! Left!"
[Éowyn slices open the legs of an Oliphaunt, felling it.]
Éomer: "Aim for the head!"
Gamling: "Make for the oliphaunts!"
[One of the oliphaunts is riddled with spears.]
Théoden: "Bring it down! Bring it down! Bring it down!"
[Éowyn throws a spear that lands in a oliphaunt's leg. The wounded beast falls and knocks Éowyn and Merry off their horse.]
[Éowyn scrambles out of the way to avoid being crushed. She looks around franticly.]
Éowyn: "Merry!"
[Théoden fights off Orcs. Éowyn fights off several of them.]
[Théoden looks at her with possible recognition.]
[Merry emerges and is attacked. He fights off several Orcs, including one who picks him up.]
[Éowyn exchanges blows with Gothmog.]
