How does Bilbo rescue the dwarves?
He rescued the dwarfs twice. After the dwarfs were captured by giant spiders he threw rocks at the spiders, called them names, and led them away from where the dwarfs were hanging in cocoons waiting to be sucked dry. After the spiders were gone, he put on his magic ring, tippytoed back to the dwarfs and used his sword, Sting, to cut them loose and then led them away, sick and dizzy as they were, to safety. Soon after that they were captured again, this time by the elves. Bilbo hung around the elven stronghold long enough to find out where they all were being held and who had the keys. One night, during a feast, the guard with the keys got drunk and passed out. Bilbo took the keys and let the dwarfs out of their prisons, then took the keys back to save the guard from getting in too much trouble. He packed the dwarfs in barrels and casks from the elf warehouse and they were dumped into the river by workmen to be floated down river to the human town. The barrels were formed into rafts by the elves and floated to the town, where Bilbo unpacked everybody at night while the elves had dinner, and they were safe again.
