[from extended version]
Pippin : [to himself] What were you thinking, Peregrin Took? What service could a Hobbit offer such a great lord of men?
Faramir : [approaching] It was well done. Generous deeds should not be checked by cold council. You are to join the tower guard?
Pippin : I didn't think they would find any livery that would fit me.
Faramir : It once belonged to a boy of the citadel. A very foolish one; who spent many hours slaying dragons instead of attending to his studies.
Pippin : This was yours?
Faramir : Yes, it was mine. My father had it made for me.
Pippin : Well, I'm taller than you were then. Though I'm not likely to grow anymore... except sideways.
[they laugh]
Faramir : Never fitted me either. Boromir was always the soldier. They were so alike, he and my father. Proud... stubborn, even. But strong.
Pippin : I think you have strength, of a different kind. And one day your father will see it.

Gandalf : Faramir!
[Running after Faramir]
Gandalf : Faramir! Your father's will has turned to madness. Do not throw away your life so rashly.
Faramir : Where does my allegiance lie if not here? This is the city of the men of Numenor. I would gladly give my life to defend her beauty, her memory... her wisdom...
Gandalf : Your father loves you, Faramir. He will remember it before the end.
-
Denethor : Is there a captain here who still has the courage to do his lord's will?
Faramir : You wish now that our places had been exchanged... that I had died and Boromir had lived.
Denethor : Yes.
[whispering]
Denethor : I wish that.
Faramir : Since you are robbed of Boromir... I will do what I can in his stead.
[Bows and turns to leave]
Faramir : If I should return, think better of me, Father.
Denethor : That will depend on the manner of your return.

Gandalf : Faramir? This is not the first halfing to have crossed your path.
Faramir : No.
Pippin : You've seen Frodo and Sam?
Gandalf : Where? When?
Faramir : In Ithilien. Not two days ago. Gandalf, they're taking the road to the Morgul Vale.
Gandalf : And then the pass of Cirith Ungol.
Pippin : What does that mean? What's wrong?
Gandalf : Faramir, tell me everything.

Denethor : [to Faramir, about his loyalty] Ever you desire to appear lordly and gracious as a king of old. Boromir would have remembered his father's need. He would have brought me a kingly gift.
Faramir : Boromir would not have brought the Ring. He would have stretched out his hand to this thing, and taking it, he would have fallen.
Denethor : You know nothing of this matter!
Faramir : He would have kept it for his own! And when he returned, you would not have known your son.
Denethor : [jumping up angrily] Boromir was loyal to me! Not some wizard's pupil!
[Denethor cries and falls back into his chair; Faramir approaches him]
Faramir : Father?
[Denethor looks over Faramir's shoulder and smiles]
Denethor : My son!
[an image of Boromir appears behind Faramir. Boromir smiles and then the image fades. Denethor is left looking at Faramir. His mood shifts back to anger]
Denethor : Leave me!
[Faramir hesitates and departs]
