    He gained what everyone gained: food, clothes, and a cave in which to rest for a few days.
    He learned that he cannot be a burglar without a lot of help; he's in WAY over his head.
    a better understanding of how to beat an opponent who is physically much bigger and stronger than you

  • Q14
    For what reason would Tolkien have Gandalf go so far ahead of the dwarves right before they meet the trolls?
    It seems reasonable that the wizard wanted to force Bilbo to start acting as a burglar -- to actually take an active part in the adventure.
    Gandalf is a wizard who has no real common sense. He just wandered off because he does stupid stuff like that all the time.
    Gandalf went ahead to tell the trolls about the dwarves so that it would force the party of fourteen into a situation where they'd have to work together.
