I think Joy has it; I remember wondering at the time if "You will find your courage" is sort a nudge and wink saying that Pippin will be doing a few heroics very soon. Though it was a slightly clumsy way of putting it since I don't anyone watching the movie, Tolkienphile or non-Tolkienphile, thought that Pippin lacked courage; mostly he just seemed to lack any sort of basic awareness of his surroundings (to put it nicely). But "You will find your brain" would have been cruel, as well as a little too reminiscent of "The Wizard of Oz." <P>And yes, he has a very nice accent. I guess those Tooks are so crazy that they can't even speak with a normal accent like decent Hobbiton folk .
