      In the book, he and Gandalf were planning the party for months. The whole thing was his plan from the beginning.

        No joke, I just got to the part in the Andy Serkis narrated audiobook where Gandalf returns to toss the ring into the fire(place).

        Bilbo even comes out to announce that the dragon means supper is being served and the 144 people that get to sit inside the big tent should come on in.
