Summary
Bilbo is quite convinced that all the problems plaguing them in the mountain - specifically, Thorin acting quite unlike himself - stem from the blasted Arkenstone. The thing is probably cursed, and it's up to him to get it as far away from Thorin as he can - and while he's at it, he might as well try to stop a war before it starts.
Rather than offering Bard and Thranduil the Arkenstone, Bilbo offers to give them his share of the treasure if they will please go away. Unfortunately, neither of them is willing to believe Thorin will hand it over - which leads to a ransom plan that is, in Bilbo's opinion, quite ridiculous and doomed to fail from the start. But at least that blasted stone is out of the mountain.

Summary
It was the Twenty-Sixth of April, in the Shire reckoning - exactly one year to the day from when a hobbit found himself the unexpected host of thirteen dwarves and a wizard. The wedding of Thorin, son of Thrain, son of Thror, King under the Mountain to one Bilbo Baggins of the Shire was scheduled for three o'clock in the afternoon, just before tea.
