I think she means in the goblin area. When Bilbo got separated?
But there would've been a more serious consequence: some goblin, not Bilbo, would have found The One Ring.

By left behind, I mean when he fell off one of the Dwarves shoulders just before he found the ring and gollum.

Oh, okay! Yes, I think he really had to bring out the "hero" side of himself at that point for reasons of self-preservation! And having that ring didn't hurt, either!

If Bilbo had not been left behind I believe the ring would have come to him or Frodo anyway as it was fate. Bilbo not getting the ring would have been the far more significant consequence of him not getting left behind than the level of respect he commanded!! Just my humble opinion |

I think you're right, Vortûriel.

I was very glad when I checked and found this thread was so old. If a thread like this were current it would would greatly lower my opinion of entmoot's admins.

If the Hobbit was 'There and back again, a Hobbits tale' it would be written in first person and I think there would be more poems in it (I think) What the dwarves were thinking and what happened when Bilbo wasn't there wouldn't be in it either, I don't remember him interviewing people about things that happen when he was absent. Then again, maybe I'm wrong
