Emmi and Rúmil - Post Banquet Scene

This scene in Imladris took place right after the play.  Rúmil was supposed to recite some lovely Elvish poetry, but every time he approached the fountain, he would begin to laugh, causing Emmi to giggle, and that would ruin the whole scene.  You can begin to see Emmi's smirk in this shot, as she knows what is about to come.

After the fourth or fifth time of this, Rúmil finally broke down in a fit of laughter, and called out to Elrond, "Why do all of the fountains in Rivendell have naked sea nymphs on them?"  Unfortunately, no fountains were found without naked sea nymphs, so the scene was cut.

Emmi and Rumil - Daily Routines

Rumil tended to have a bad habit throughout the entire production.  Every morning, he would wake up early to read the paper.  Good to be informed, yes.  Bad to stand in the middle of the street while reading the daily business section.

At least once a week, Rumil would complain about the strain of the story.  For that reason, a rest and relaxation room was set up with a full time massage therapist.  Emmi wasn't too happy with this, not because she didn't like the service-

-but because Rumil's a huge flirt.  With, well, practically everyone.

 

Emmi had her own way of relaxing after the long days - a nice soak in the hot tub.

 

As a practical joke, someone had this lovely portrait placed in the room.  No one knew who did it or where it came from, until the last day, when Galadriel asked if anyone had seen her collection of life-sized march warden posters.  This resulted in more than one raised brow, two of which were Celeborn's.  Afterwards, at a post production party, Glorfindel, Erestor, and Forest snickered an awful lot, continuously pointing at one another.  The evidence is inconclusive, but there is a fair amount of certainty Galadriel herself did not pull this prank.

 

Often times, Emmi would do a lot of pouting when Rumil finally came to join her.  On this particular day, Rumil couldn't help but laugh at the portrait on the wall, and Emmi was not quite able to stay mad at him for long.

 

Really...can you blame her?

 

Nothing to do but kick back and relax.

 

Okay, maybe this...

 

And a little of this...that...and the other thing...
