Frodo: [finds a sketch of a younger Bilbo] What's this?
Old Bilbo: That is private. Keep your sticky paws off. [Frodo start to look at the book, Bilbo hides the text] It's not ready yet.
Frodo: Not ready for what?
Old Bilbo: Reading. [notices a bundle of envelopes] What on earth are these?
Frodo: Replies to the party invitations.
Old Bilbo: [excited] Good gracious. Is it today?
Frodo: They all said they are coming. Except for the Sackville-Bagginses, who demand that you ask them in person.
Old Bilbo: Really... Over my dead body.
Frodo: They'd probably find that quite agreeable. They seem to think you have tunnels overflowing with gold.
Old Bilbo: It was one small chest; hardly overflowing. [whispers] And it still smells of troll! [Hides some gold cups]
Frodo: [notices Bilbo's behavior] What on earth are you doing?
Old Bilbo: Taking precautions! You know, I caught her making off with the silverware once.
Frodo: Who?
Old Bilbo: Lobelia Sackville-Baggins. She had all my spoons stuffed in her pockets! Ha! Dreadful woman! Make sure you keep an eye of her after I, um, I... When I'm...
Frodo: When you're what?
Old Bilbo: [not wanting to tell] It's nothing, nothing...
Frodo: You know, some people are beginning to wonder about you, uncle. They think you are becoming...odd.
Old Bilbo: "Odd"?
Frodo: Hmm, unsociable.
Old Bilbo: "Unsociable"? Me? Nonsense! [Hands Frodo a sign] Be a good lad and put that out at the gate.
[The sign reads "No admittance; Except on party business."]
