Kicks open the door holding a smoothie. Let's talk about how Thorin's first thought is almost always geared towards Bilbo's safety. Take the below, Smaug is on their tail, and he's about caught up. Thorin is forced to make a series of snap choices, all while his mind is slowly being taken over by gold sickness.

Right before this, he ordered Bombur to get the bellows working. There was only desperation and command in his voice. It bordered on harshness. The second after Smaug punches through the metal grate, Thorin calls Bilbo's name loudly and desperately. There's concern and gentleness lanced within it. His request? To pull a lever literally as far away from the dragon as possible in the room.

Bilbo is terrified! He's shaking and nervous right before this. Thorin literally reaches for him as far as his body will allow, well before he's within arm's reach. The caress his back and the long moment to watch him go. They're in the middle of being attacked right now. He has given orders to no one else other than Bombur. There's no time to spare on the field and yet...Thorin wanted one last touch, one last long look.

To top it all off, he doesn't even know if Bilbo can complete the task he's given! Bilbo is not tall enough to reach without jumping and it takes the full weight of his body to pull it down. Strategically it would have made more sense to send Nori or Bofur.

Not only does Thorin give him the job furthest away, but he gives him the only job with a built in way to protect himself. He puts him right by the water and puts himself right in front of Smaug, knowing he's the better target.

After everything crumbles, when Smaug is extinguished, Bilbo is also the only person that Thorin shouts at to make sure he's ok or to give him any direction. He says his name directly. One of the few times he calls Bilbo by his first name.

Even in the darkening of his mind, he cares for one person, one hobbit. Bilbo.
