CHAPTER ONE for the password!

...

10. EXPECTED.

1. CHUBBS (hubs/chubby).

8. ONE GROSS (Used to describe the amount of people invited to the special part of the party, with the farewell speech). (Considered a vulgar expression by many of the guests ('like goods in a package'), even without the modern usage of 'gross.'

Is 9 NOKES (slightly similar to knocks). One of the regulars at the Green Dragon. Maybe incredulity refers to the rumours surrounding Bilbo's adventures and/or purported wealth?
