3 points: at what point did Thorin decide to follow Gandalf's plan for the defeat of Smaug?

Maybe this is more difficult than I was giving it credit for... I'm going to bump it up to 4 points.

Eye Risky 4 pointer ...

I'll take a risk on 4 points and say never, since Gandalf never really had a clear plan for the defeat of Smaug.

Sorry, Saucepan... it is specifically stated that at some point Thorin did decide to listen to Gandalf.

Eye Well OK then ...

For 4 points, it was at the Unexpected Party in Bag End, when Gandalf revealed the map of Erebor showing the secret passage and the key to the passage.

But I still maintain that Gandalf had no specific plan for the defeat of Smaug.
