The film opens with a flashback at the Prancing Pony in Bree. Thorin Oakenshield sits alone, a brooding figure displaced from his home. He is approached by Gandalf the Grey. The wizard warns Thorin that a darkness is rising in the East and that if Erebor is not reclaimed, the Dragon Smaug could be used as a weapon by the Enemy.
