Essex: This scene is put into the movie while Gandalf et all are on their way to Edoras. Not too far out of context.
It was one of my guesses that part of the reason lay in that Gandalf had just finished being dead...
I still don't think Gandalf would've really thought Sam dead. He knows that Merry and Pippin had been captured by the orcs, probably figured out they were still alive because Saruman thought they, being Halfings, might have the Ring. Sam, if captured, would've been kept alive too. Right?
