"'And what was the meaning of the dark words?

"'Long has Boromir, son of Denethor, "'been gone seeking an answer, "'and the horse that we lent him came back riderless.'

What doom do you bring out of the north?

So, you know, here he's asking about the dark words.

Here he's asking about, you know, Boromir looking for an answer to these dark words.

So this strongly suggests that Boromir's mission and the riddle from the dream words were known in Meduseld, in which case Wormtongue would have told him all about it.

I mean, I can't think of any other way that he would have gotten this information.

But Boromir stops by for a cup of tea?

I mean, I don't think so.

Though it's possible if, because, you know, Denethor liked Saruman better than he liked Gandalf.

That's because he didn't like Gandalf.

So maybe he would have said, hey, if you're going through the Gap of Rohan, you know, Saruman might be up there.

It's not impossible, but yeah.

That's pretty significant.

That is true.

Well, you only have one more episode after this.

I do.

I do.

Well, you did, you know, you begged and finally I just was like, okay, fine.

Not at all.
