What Makes Him or Her Pure Good?

• When the dragon Slag attacks destroyed the town of Dale, Golden Bells, General Torin Oakenshield, a sleepy guard and Princess Mika survive and ask Gandalf for advice. Gandalf tells them a prophecy stating Bilbo Baggins, a Hobbit of the Shire, will kill Slag. They arrive at Bilbo's house, where Bilbo is told of Slag's destruction and the prophecy stating that Bilbo will kill Slag. Bilbo, initially reluctant declines to go through before Mika yells that she will go alone if she must. Having fell into some affection with her and not wanting her to go alone due to being a child, Bilbo sets off on his quest.
• The three survivors and Bilbo get attracted to lamb being roasted by Groans (the short's version of Trolls). The survivors get put on the fire by the Groans, leading to Bilbo cleverly mimicking their voices to turn them against each other till the sun arrives and kills them.
• Later, Bilbo falls into a pit with Gallum, who he tricks into showing him the way out of the cave. Bilbo rejoins the three survivors of Dale, collectively trudging their way through Mirkwood.
• They arrive at the Lonely Mountain where Bilbo watches Slag sleeping. Bilbo steals the Arkenstone from Slag and together with the three survivors, fasten a giant bow and arrow with the Arkenstone as its heart. They use the bow to shoot the arrow into Slag's chest killing him.
• The City of Golden Bells gets rebuilt and Princess Mika and Bilbo rule it together before returning to Hobbiton. It is said that one day, Gandalf would once again knock on the round green door of Bilbo Baggins' Hobbit hole.
• Due to no other media being set in Gene Deitch's short, Bilbo stands out in this continuity.
