"OLD BILBO:" "My dear Frodo" "You asked me once if I had told you everything there was to know about my adventures." "And while I can honestly say I have told you the truth I may not have told you all of it." "I am old now, Frodo." "I'm not the same Hobbit I once was." "I think it is time for you to know what really happened." "It began long ago in a land far away to the east the like of which you will not find in the world today." "There was the city of Dale." "lbs markets known far and wide." "Full of the bounties of vine and vale." "Peaceful and prosperous." "For this city lay before the doors of the greatest kingdom in Middle-earth:" "Erebor." "Stronghold of Thror, King Under the Mountain." "Mightiest of the Dwarf Lords." "Thror ruled with utter surety never doubting his house would endure for his line lay secure in the lives of his son and grandson." "Ah, Frodo." "Erebor." "Built deep within the mountain itself the beauty of this fortress city was legend." "lbs wealth lay in the earth in precious gems hewn from rock and in great seams of gold running like rivers through stone." "The skill of the Dwarves was unequaled fashioning objects of great beauty out of diamond, emerald, ruby and sapphire." "Ever they delved deeper, down into the dark." "And that is where they found it." "The Heart of the Mountain." "The Arkenstone." "Thror named it "The King's Jewel. "" "He took it as a sign, a sign that his right to rule was divine." "All would pay homage to him." "Even the great Elven King, Thranduil." "But the years of peace and plenty were not to last." "Slowly the days turned sour.." "...and the watchful nights closed in." "Thror's love of gold had grown too fierce." "A sickness had begun to grow within him." "It was a sickness of the mind." "And where sickness thrives bad things will follow." "The first they heard was a noise like a hurricane..." "The pines on the mountain creaked and cracked in the hot, dry wind." "[GRUNTS]" "[WIND WHISTLING]" "Balin, sound the alarm."

"For a dragon will guard his plunder as long as he lives." "THORIN:" "Run for your lives!" "Ah!" "Help us!" "Thranduil would not risk the lives of his kin against the wrath of the dragon." "No help came from the Elves that day nor any day since." "Robbed of their homeland the Dwarves of Erebor wandered the wilderness a once mighty people brought low." "The young Dwarf prince took work where he could find it laboring in the villages of Men." "But always he remembered the mountain smoke beneath the moon the trees like torches blazing bright." "For he had seen dragon fire in the sky and a city turned to ash" "And he never forgave and he never forgot." "[BIRDS CHIRPING]" "That, my dear Frodo, is where I come in." "For, quite by chance, and the will of a Wizard fate decided I would become part of this tale." "It began..." "Well, it began as you might expect." "In a hole in the ground there lived a Hobbit." "Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole full of worms and oozy smells." "This was a Hobbit hole." "And that means good food, a warm hearth and all the comforts of home." "[CHUCKLES]" "[OLD BILBO CLEARS THROAT]" "Thank you." "What's this?" "That is private." "Keep your sticky paws off." "It's not ready yet." "Not ready for what?" "Reading."

"Except for the Sackville-Bagginses, who are demanding you ask them in person." "Are they, indeed?" "Over my dead body." "They'd probably find that quite agreeable." "They seem to think you have tunnels..." "...overflowing with gold." " It was one small chest, hardly overflowing." "And it still smells of Troll." "What an earth are you doing?"

"[GASPS]" " Goad morning." "GANDALF:" "What do you mean?" "Dc you wish me a good morning... or do you mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not'?" "Or perhaps you mean to say that you feel good an this particular morning?" "Or are you simply stating that this is a morning to be good an?" "Hm?" "All of them at once, I suppose." "GANDALF:" "Hmm." "Can I help you?" "That remains to be seen." "I'm lacking for someone to share in an adventure." "An adventure?" "No, I don't imagine anyone west of Bree would have much interest in adventures." "Nasty, disturbing, uncomfortable things." "Make you late for dinner." "Heh, heh." "Mm." "Huh." "Hmm." "Oh." "Ah." "Goad morning." "To think that I should have lived to be "good marninged" by Belladonna Tank's sun as if I were selling buttons at the dour." "Beg your pardon?" "You've changed, and not entirely for the better, Bilbo Baggins." "I'm sorry, do I know you?" "Well, you know my name, although you don't remember I belong to it." "I'm Gandalf." "And Gandalf means me." "Gandalf?" "Not Gandalf the wandering Wizard wha made such excellent fireworks?" "Old Tack used to have them an Midsummer's Eve." "Heh, heh." "Ahem." "No idea you were still in business." "And where else should I be?" "Where else--?" "Ahem." "Well, I'm pleased to find you remember something about me even if it's only my fireworks." "Yes." "Well, that's decided." "It'll be very good for you and mast amusing for me." "I shall inform the others." "Inform the who?" "What?" "No." "No." "No" " Wait."

""The Lonely Mountain."" "Aye, Oin has read the portents... and the portents say it is time." "Ravens have been seen flying back to the mountain, as it was foretold." ""When the birds of yore return to Erebar the reign of the beast will end."" "Uh, what beast?" "That would be a reference to Smaug the Terrible chiefest and greatest calamity of our age." "Airborne fire-breather." "Teeth like razors, claws like meat hacks." " Extremely fund of precious metals." " Yes, I know what a dragon is." "I'm not afraid." "I'm up for it."

"[GANDALF SIGHS]" "The answer lies hidden somewhere in this map and I do not have the skill to find it." "But there are others in Middle-earth who can." "The task I have in mind will require a great deal of stealth and no small amount of courage." "But if we are careful and clever, I believe that it can be dune." "That's why we need a burglar." "Hmm." "And a good one tan." "An expert, I'd imagine." "GLOIN:" "And are you?" "Am I what?" "He said he's an expert." "Hey." "Me'?" "No." "No, no, no."

"Aye, the Wild is no place for gentle folk who can neither fight nor fend for themselves." "KILI:" "He's just fine." "[CHATTERING]" "Enough!" "If I say Bilbo Baggins is a burglar, then a burglar he is." "Hobbits are remarkably light an their feet." "In fact, they can pass unseen by mast, if they choose." "And, while the dragon is accustomed to the smell of Dwarf the scent of a Hobbit is all but unknown to him which gives us a distinct advantage." "You asked me to find the 14th member of this company and I have chosen Mr. Baggins." "There's a lat more to him than appearances suggest." "And he's got a great deal more to offer than any of you know." "Including himself." "You must trust me an this." "Very well." " We will do it your way." " No, no." "THORIN:" "Give him the contract."

"Just let me sit quietly for a moment." "You've been sitting quietly for far tan lung." "Tell me, when did dailies and your mother's dishes became so important to you?" "I remember a young Hobbit who was always running off in search of Elves in the wands." "Who would stay out late, came home after dark trailing mud and twigs and fireflies." "A young Hobbit who would have liked nothing better than to find out what was beyond the borders of the Shire." "The world is not in your backs and maps." "It's out there." "I can't just go running off into the blue." "I am a Baggins of Bag-end." "You are also a Tank." "Did you know that your great-great-great-great-uncle Bullraarer Took was so large, he could ride a real horse?" " Yes." " Yes, well, he could." "In the Battle of Green Fields, he charged the Goblin ranks." "He swung his club so hard, it knocked the Goblin king's head clean off and it sailed 100 yards through the air and went dawn a rabbit hale." "And thus, the battle was wan." "And the game of gulf invented at the same time." "I do believe you made that up." "Well, all good stories deserve embellishment." "You'll have a tale or two to tell of your own when you come back." "Can you promise that I will came back?" "No." "And if you do... you will not be the same." "That's what I thought." "Sorry, Gandalf, I can't sign this." "You've got the wrung Hobbit." "It appears we have last our burglar." "Probably for the best." "The adds were always against us." "After all, what are we?" "Merchants, miners tinkers, toy-makers." "Heh, heh." "Hardly the stuff of legend." "There are a few warriors amongst us." "Old warriors." "I would take each and every one of these Dwarves aver an army from the Iran Hills." "For when I called upon them, they answered." "Loyalty, honor a willing heart." "I can ask no more than that." "You don't have to do this." "You have a choice." "You've done honorably by our people." "You have built a new life for us in the Blue Mountains." "A life of peace and plenty." "A life that is worth more than all the gold in Erebar." "From my grandfather to my father, this has came to me." "They dreamt of the day when the Dwarves of Erebar would reclaim their homeland." "There is no choice, Balin." "Not for me."
