This perfect ending encapsulates Frodo's character, destiny, and journey, i ncluding its contrast with the life of his best friend, Samwise Gamgee. Merry and Pippin married, like Sam.

Sam's use of "mister" in regards to Frodo in The Lord of the Rings is to showcase deference, as the two bear different social statuses in The Shire, Sam being Frodo's employee over just his friend.

Despite the chaos, Samira sacrifices herself to ensure that Eric and Frodo make it to the sanctuary. In A Quiet Place Part II, Sam’s cat Frodo doesn’t appear.

Then when Frodo wanders right outside a flooded subway and finds an anxiety-ridden Eric (Joseph Quinn), the cat’s hypnotizing calm is enough to ease his panicked breathing and lead him to Sam.
