IF SpM finds this, note I do not have anything to do with this question or the answer that is about to be given.

With that out of the way...

A: After being born Pippin was adopted by the Troll Kurt (the son of Bert)...what you didn't know that?

Grima Wormtounge. Perhaps not physically, but emotionally.

Why did the Balrog come after the Company?

He wanted to ask them if they knew where he put his hearing aid. The poor old chap lost it somewhere in his large dwelling and was hoping that the strangers saw it on their way. Unfortunately, without the hearing aid, the Balrog could not hear Gandalf's "you cannot pass".

When and where did Sauron lose his finger?

How is he suppose to know. As long as he could remember he never saw it.

Why was the Balrog not allowed to pass?
