Chapter 3: The Uruk-Hai

In this chapter, it basically tells the story of Merry and Pipan travelling with the orcs and Uruk-Hai. The two halflings are close to dying, and they are extremely worn out because of their rough and painful journey with these grotesque and horrid creatures. At the end of this chapter, Merry an Pipan make their escape from the orcs and they run off into the woods, leaving a few clues for the others to help find them. This chapter made me think of the movie "Escape from Azkaban." I thought of this because Merry and Pipan have to pull some trickery, and in the end make their escape, all the while under heavy security and survellance just like what happened in "Escape from Azkaban."
