Gollum then meets up with Frodo on his journey to destroy the ring, and becomes his servant and guide. His desire for the Ring causes him to wait, and journey with Frodo for the time present. After much scheming and foiled plans to recapture the ring, Gollum attacked Frodo at the Cracks of Doom, biting off Frodo's finger, and taking the ring for his own. When dancing wildly with delight, he slipped, and fell into the chasm along with the ring.
