Frodo wakes up in rivendell after being healed from the morghul blade.
Gandalf: "I was ... uh ... delayed"
Flashback to when he jumped from the tower Isengard.
sorry to correct your akchually moment :(
Yeah, you're right, I don't know what I was thinking.
My shame will never end.
Also, I completely forgot that when Saruman does his Evil Reveal in the book he's wearing a technicolor robe, which is fun. I feel like that should have been in the movie.
I haven't read the books in decades, but in the film, this is definitely after Saruman's betrayal. Gandalf goes to Saruman after learning Frodo has the ring and is unable to meet the Hobbits at the Prancing Pony because he's been captured. He then meets up with the gang at Rivendell, the hold the Council, and the Fellowship is formed. He doesn't see Saruman again in the original version of the films, and not until the 3rd film in the extended edition.
Yeah, you're right, I had the timeline mixed up for some reason.
