Plans are made before Bilbo rescues the dwarves from the wood elves and the group's attempts at entering Smaug's lair. Bilbo follows the elves in and out of their lair. He talks with Thorin and the others in through their cell doors as he bides his time. Bilbo's final plan includes hiding the dwarves in the barrels that are floated down the river to the boat from Lake Town.
