We all have our bad moments sometimes, so if Gollum crashes on it and starts attacking Frodo for a moment with his beloved Ring, we should try to be understanding. Not everyone has the self-control or the innate heroism of an untainted Hobbit to withstand the power of the One Ring, so perhaps a little grace and understanding goes a long way.

Pippin may receive no love in LOTR, but even decrepit creatures eating fish raw in a dark cave for hundreds of years have their moments of relatability. But this human experience is the common thread through Middle Earth that we all know and love. These stories are more than just epic tales of Fellowship, power, good, and evil; they're lessons in how to be a decent person, a good king, or even a peaceful hobbit.
