All right, what do Sam Gamgee and Amroth have in common?

Well just read through UT a bit and I must say the only thing I guess they have in common (except simple things) is that they both jumped into water trying to reach the person they loved and cared about. (Amroth trying to swim back to shore knowing otherwise he would not find Nimrodel [ok, he would in Valinor, but the guy is anyway a bit strange] and Sam that wanted to join Frodo on his quest).

And that's what I had in mind. Nothing complicated, it was about realizing it. Please continue.

Ok, what do Oin and Frodo have in common?

They were attacked by the Watcher in the Water? (in one case, with tragic result)
