Thorin comes to the aid of his friends, the men, showing that he can forget his stubborn resentments to defend his former companions.

Explanation:

The Hobbit is a fantasy novel written by J. R. R. Tolkien. It follows the adventures of a hobbit named Bilbo Baggins, who goes on a journey to win a share of the treasure guarded by Smaug the dragon. He is accompanied by a band of dwarves led by Thorin.

At one point, Bilbo finds the Arkenstone, an heirloom of Thorin's family, and hides it away. The Wood-elves and Lake-men who aided the dwarves in their battles demand a share of the treasure, which Thorin refuses. Bilbo tries to offer them the Arkenstone to maintain peace, but Thorin is enraged, feeling betrayed. However, in the end, Thorin comes to the aid of his friends, showing that he can forget his stubborn resentments to defend his former companions. He is fatally wounded in the Battle of Five Armies but reconciles with Bilbo before dying.

This is why the third option is the correct one.
