A scene after the War of the Ring:

Sam: "Oh dear, moths have been chewing on my clothes while I was gone on the Quest. How am I to marry Rose in this moth-eaten old suit?"

Pippin: "Why, buy a new one, of course. And in the future, when you store it, you would do well to use paradichlorobenzene. You can make it yourself: it is a white crystalline compound (C6H4Cl2) made by chlorinating benzene; and it works wonders as a fumigant against clothes moths."

Sam: "Gee...thanks..."
