[At Fort Eorlingas, Uruks try to break through the inner door.]

Théoden: "The fortress is taken. It is over."

Aragorn: "You said this fortress would never fall while your men defend it. They still defend it. They have died defending it!"

[A loud bang at the door is heard. The women and children in the caves cower in fear.]

Aragorn: "Is there no other way for the women and children to get out of the caves?"

[The king and his men remain silent.]

Aragorn: "Is there no other way?"

Gamling: "There is one passage. It leads into the mountains. But they will not get far. The Uruk-hai are too many."

[Aragorn grabs Gamling by his shoulder.]

Aragorn: "Send word for the women and children to make for the mountain pass. And barricade the entrance!"

Théoden: "So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate?"

[The Uruk-hai keep trying to break the door.]

Aragorn: "Ride out with me."

[Théoden turns to face Aragorn.]

Aragorn: "Ride out and meet them."

Théoden: "For death and glory?"

Aragorn: "For Rohan. For your people."

Gimli: "The sun is rising."

[Aragorn looks up to the window as the sun rises.]

Gandalf (voiceover): "Look to my coming at first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the East."

Théoden: "Yes. Yes! The horn of Helm Hammerhand shall sound in the deep, one last time."

Gimli: "Yes!"

[Gimli climbs up to blow the horn.]

Théoden: "Let this be the hour when we draw swords together."

Théoden: "Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath. Now for ruin. And the red dawn!"

[Gimli blows in to the horn and the doors give in.]

Théoden: "Forð Eorlingas!"

[The King rides out with Aragorn, Legolas and his men by his side. They fight as Gimli blows the horn.]

[The men fight down the causeway into the Uruk army. Aragorn stops and looks up. He sees Gandalf on the back of Shadowfax.]

Aragorn: "Gandalf."

[Théoden turns to look up.]

Gandalf: "Théoden king stands alone."

[Èomer rides up alongside Gandalf.]

Èomer: "Not alone."

[Èomer draws his sword.]

Èomer: "Rohirrim!"

Théoden: "Èomer!"

Èomer: "To the king!"

[Gandalf and the Rohirrim charge down a hill to Uruk-hai.]

[The Uruk-hai point their spears at them, but are blinded when the sun rises. They fight.]
