There is no dirt in the gift-giving scene because they have cut out the Scouring of the Shire. It is, unfortunately, official. Pete Jackson even said something about cutting it during his commentary on FOTR. I will greatly understate my view on this issue and say that I am annoyed....

Hmm... I wonder how the third movie will end then. With the ring destroyed and the king crowned and nobody's eventual fates revealed? Will the ringbearers go to the Grey Havens at all, or was the scene in the extended version FOTR of the elves in the shire as good as it gets on that count?

Of course, we already know Peter Jackson doesn't want anyone to think Frodo's actually dead at the end of TTT - i.e. that has to be a major reason why the scene with Shelob is now in tRotK (or however you want to anacronymize it.)
