  1. One thing to consider here for poor Smeagol is the fact that his life depended on the ring. Consider how rapidly Bilbo aged after he had given up the ring and it was destroyed in Mount Doom. Bilbo's lifespan was prolonged unnaturally by the ring, and once destroyed the effect wore off rapidly. For Smeagol the ring's destruction would've meant certain death since he'd age 400 years in a matter of days.

  2. I like to think that Smeagol surfaced a little in Gollum when they bit off Frodo's finger to reclaim the ring and plummet into the lava of mount doom.

  3. ​ @cinnamonflavord I remember his demise as Lumpy in King Kong. Those fluke worms man... the stuff of nightmares.
