This is a single extra long episode to wrap up our close look at The Hobbit. A very different Bilbo returns home, but it's not exactly what they expect.

A story doesn't end with the climactic moment. There's always more to tell. Here, Tolkien wraps things up but leaves a lot to our imaginations.

Bilbo wakes to find the battle is over and almost nobody is unscathed - a situation very similar to what Tolkien went through in the Battle of the Somme and the conflicts afterwards.

Why do Tolkien's battles feel so different from his other scenes? Something changes in his writing style, and I think I've figured it out. Oh, and lots of fun details from the battle. ;)

Tolkien gives us some little details about Dain, his army, and the weapons and armor they bring with them. And, of course, this hints at so much more. Let's dig in (get it, because they're dwarves?)
