Gandalf reacts to Bilbo's story.

"What did I tell you?" said Gandalf laughing. "Mr. Baggins has more about him than you guess." He gave Bilbo a queer look from under his bushy eyebrows, as he said this, and the hobbit wondered if he guessed at the part of his tale that he had left out.

Thanks. That clears it up. It reminds me of the reaction after Frodo survived the troll attack and they discovered the mithral vest.(probably spelled mithral wrong)

I've seen a couple of things I never noticed and haven't heard discussed...
Does anyone know what the 4 - 5 fires in the background of TTT are...?? The scene just after Gandalf finds Shadowfax, they (Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas) are all riding towards Edoras and you can see them in the background.
Anyone?

“For many hours they rode on through the meads and riverlands. Often the grass was so high that it reached above the knees of the riders, and their steeds seemed to be swimming in a grey-green sea. They came upon many hidden pools, and broad acres of sedge waving above wet and treacherous bogs; but Shadowfax found the way, and the other horses followed in his swath. Slowly the sun fell from the sky down into the West. Looking out over the great plain, far away the riders saw it for a moment like a red fire sinking into the grass. Low upon the edge of sight shoulders of the mountains glinted red upon either side. A smoke seemed to rise up and darken the sun’s disc to the hue of blood, as if it had kindled the grass as it passed down under the rim of earth.
‘There lies the Gap of Rohan,’ said Gandalf. ‘It is now almost due west of us. That way lies Isengard.’
‘I see a great smoke,’ said Legolas. ‘What may that be?’
‘Battle and war!’ said Gandalf. ‘Ride on!”
Excerpt From: J. R. R. Tolkien. “The Two Towers: Being the Second Part of the Lord of the Rings.”
