[Scene begins with Fishlegs, Snotlout, Astrid, the twins stuck in a cage in the sinking Reaper]
Fishlegs: Get us out of here!
Gang: [screaming]
Snotlout: Hiccup!
Ruffnut: Get us out of here!
"Like I said before: Now? Really?" Hiccup asked them.
"Yes! We're gonna die! We weren't gonna do that before!" Snotlout yelled in his ear.
Dagur: [laughing] Isn't this exciting? What will he choose, ladies and gentlemen? Saving his friends or capturing his mortal enemy, his brother?
"Not your brother!" Hiccup said, exasperated.
Astrid punched him. "We get the point,"
[Hiccup goes to save his friends and zooms off on Toothless to the Reaper]
"I'm being too nice to you. But then . . . " Hiccup trailed off, deep in thought. If you had asked him to do the same now, he still would've chosen them, despite how they treated him.
Gobber, being around him the most, had a hunch on what Hiccup was thinking.
Dagur: Hmm. Disappointing, but all-so-typically Hiccup.
Gang: Get us out of here! Hiccup, help!
"What does it look like I'm doing?"
Hiccup: Move back from the door! Toothless, plasma blast.
[Toothless blasts the door of the cage, but leaves it without a single scratch]
Fishlegs: Dragon-proof bars? Oh, fascinating.
Hiccup: Whoever built this ship really knew what they were doing.
"Geeks!" Tuff said. Ruff nodded.
"We're in a boat that's falling into an ocean full of bloodthirsty eels and all you guys can think about is how 'fascinating' the cage is?" Snotlout asked (mostly yelled).
"Calm down, Snotlout!" Astrid told him.
"Anything, for you,"
[ship rocks to a side, tossing Snotlout onto Fishlegs]
Snotlout: Whoa!
[ships rocks to the other side, tossing Fishlegs onto him]
Snotlout: Oh, you know what would be more fascinating? Getting us out of here!
Hiccup: Toothless, now!
[Toothless fires two more shots, but to no avail]
"Uh, didn't you, like, just try that?" Tuff asked.
Hiccup: We need more firepower. Guys, dragon calls!
[The gang begins calling their dragons]
[Giant eels emerge, hissing and squirming towards them]
Snotlout: Why'd it have to be EELS?!
[Toothless fires more shots at the eels]
Hiccup: Come on!
[straining to open the cage]
"'Cause that's gonna work." Snotlout scoffed.
"He's right. You might have a dragon, but your raw muscle isn't gonna open the door. You don't have any anyway." Astrid said.
Hiccup: Aah!
[Giant eel grabs his leg]
"Another benefit of the metal leg?" Hiccup offered.
Gobber (and, indeed, most of the other amputees in Berk) were amazed at how easily he was adjusting to his metal leg. It had taken them two months at the most, and a fortnight at the least.
Hiccup: Toothless!
[Toothless fires at the eel, freeing Hiccup]
Hiccup: Thanks, bud.
[removes prosthetic leg and tries to open door with it]
"How are you standing?"
"Uh . . . on one leg?" Hiccup told Astrid.
Snotlout: Uhh! Hookfang! Help us! I'm important!
"Can I disagree?" Astrid asked.
"Yeah." Ruff nodded.
"I agree with Astrid's disagree!" Tuff announced.
Astrid: Stormfly!
Ruffnut: Barf, Belch, get your butts over here!
Hiccup: [clinging onto the cage for his life on the now-vertical ship] Uhh! Toothless!
Toothless: [snarling, gets ready to fire before realising that he used up his shot limit] [roaring to call other dragons]
[Other dragons fly over]
Gang: AAAHHH! [cage door opens and they fall out of it, clinging onto each other and the open cage door]
Tuffnut: [Holding Hiccup's prosthetic leg]
"How'd you even get that?"
Tuff: That was great. Aah! No! Aah!
[fighting off eels before Barf and Belch emerge and fire at the eels]
Tuff: Oh, so now you decide to show up.
[all gets onto their dragons]
"How am I flying without my prosthetic? And I didn't see Tuff hand it back to me . . ."
Fishlegs: That was way too close.
Astrid: Hiccup, what are we doing?
Hiccup: You guys go back to Berk. I'm going after Dagur. Whatever that cylinder-looking thing is, I know one thing for sure... it shouldn't be in his hands.
"How do you know? Psychic powers?" Tuff said suspiciously.
[Scene cuts to Dagur's ship]
Dagur: [staring at cylindrical object] Amazing. I've never seen anything quite like this.
Savage: Me, neither. What do you suppose it is?
Dagur: Don't ask ridiculous questions, Savage! Just know this... it's mine now, all mine! [laughing] Now, what exactly is it that you do? Tell Dagur, now. That's it. Don't be afraid. Tell Daddy Dagur.
"'Daddy Dagur'? Ugh." Astrid groaned.
[Savage points at Hiccup and Toothless flying towards them]
Savage: Uh, Dagur?
Dagur: Uhh! What now?! Another stupid question?!
"Dagur would've won a whole lot more battles if he had listened to his army and soldiers." Stoick noted.
Savage: More of an observation.
Hiccup: [grabs cylindrical object and flies off] Thank you kindly.
"That was way easier than I thought it would be."
Dagur: [gasps] Aah! Aah! Aah!
[throws a crew member firing at Toothless overboard while the other immediately jumped into the water]
Dagur: See what you did? You distracted me. And now my pretty, cylindrical, mysterious object is gone. Good for you, Hiccup! Good for you! But I got all the gold! You hear me? All the gold! All! The! Gold!
[laughing, stops abruptly, and pushes Savage onto the ground]
Dagur: You know, you can never have nice things around that guy.
[steps on Savage]
Savage: Uhh!
[scene cuts to Berk]
Gobber: [straining to open cylindrical object]
Hiccup: Have you ever seen anything like this Dragon Eye before?
Tuffnut: Dragon Eye? How do you know it's called a Dragon Eye?
Hiccup: Because I named it.
"Woah, woah, whoa. Since when do we ever go by anything you say? And what do you think gives you the authority to name it?" Snotlout demanded.
"Well, we just listened to him over a dozen times in the past video and now." Fishlegs pointed out.
"And did you see how he led us all? He's obviously in charge." Astrid told him.
Not for the first time, Stoick, listening to the teens, noticed how Hiccup had changed. He was more confident, and he held his head higher. And Stoick also realized how much Hiccup exhibited leadership qualities. Hiccup was a born leader, and now he acted like that. He made up his mind to tell everyone else about this and demand they act accordingly.
He didn't know everyone else had already noticed this and also come to the same conclusion.
Snotlout: Whoa, whoa. Aren't we supposed on stuff like that?
Hiccup: Fine. All in favor, say "Dragon Eye".
All but Snotlout: Dragon Eye!
The teens, minus Snotlout, laughed aloud.
Snotlout: Just wanted to make sure we voted.
Astrid: Can you open it, Gobber?
Gobber: [still straining] [chuckles] "Can I open it?" I once opened a 500-year-old giant clam at the bottom of the ocean with my bare hook. Can I open it? Ha! I think it's going to be...
"No?" Hiccup offered.
Gobber: Huh. Aha.
[dart shoots out of Dragon Eye and hits Tuffnut in the chest]
Tuffnut: Ugh. What is that? That looks like a... [passes out]
"Oh . . . that's productive." Hiccup sighed.
Ruffnut: [laughing]
Gobber: Well, that was... something, maybe.
Hiccup: Gobber, maybe you shouldn't...
Gobber: Trust me. I'm... It's all right [Green gas sprays out of Dragon Eye]
"Of course it's all right." Astrid said sarcastically. "Remind me why we came to Gobber?"
Tuffnut: [Wakes up] I'm okay. I got hit with something, but now... [sniffs] No, scratch that. [falls down into a spasm]
Hiccup: Yeah, I'm thinking we should probably go get Gothi.
[Scene cuts to Gothi's hut. Gothi shoves some medicine into Tuffnut's mouth]
Tuffnut: [hacking] [gulping] My teeth are itching. My teeth are itchy.
"Is that even possible?"
Gobber: [translating Gothi's writing on the sand] She says that's a good sign. Means it's working.
Hiccup: Thank you, Gothi. We really appreciate this.
Gobber: [fiddling with Dragon Eye] Huh.
Gothi: [Eyes widen in socket as she points to a keyhole on the Dragon Eye. She turns away, troubled]
Hiccup: Gothi, are you okay? What is it?
Gothi: [points to scar on her arm, walks away]
"The scar on her arm matches the keyhole on the Dragon Eye!" the teen chorused.
The adults were just barely holding in laughter.
Hiccup: Gothi... Her... Her scar... it matches the keyhole.
Fishlegs: Yeah, and it looked like a dragon bite to me.
Gobber: Oh, it is. But she doesn't like to talk about it.
Fishlegs: She doesn't like to talk about anything.
Tuffnut: Oh, that's why she writes in the dirt with her stick. I thought that was just, like, her thing.
Ruffnut: Yeah, like Snotlout being a woman repellent.
"Hey!" Snotlout cried indignantly. "I m not! Astrid, tell them. We're in love, right?"
"You wish,"
Tuffnut: Maybe we could use the stick to itch the teeth.
Gothi whacked him with said stick.
Hiccup stifled a laugh, as did the rest of the teens. "I think she said no."
Gobber: Where are you going?
Hiccup: After her. We have to find out what kind of dragon made that scar. It could be the key to opening the Dragon Eye.
Gobber: Hold on. I have ways of making her talk. [chuckles] Well... scribble, anyway.
The teens looked on curiously as Gothi glared at Gobber.
Gobber smiled back. "Can't resist it, can you?"
[Scene cuts to night time at Gothi's hut. Gobber opens a pot of soup]
Gobber: It's the old bat's weakness, isn't it? Come on. You know you can't resist Gobber's home-made yak noodle soup.
[Gothi downs the soup]
Fishlegs: Ho ho! She downed that like a yak in a heat wave. That makes sense, right?
"No,"
"Yeah, it does, actually."
"I second it."
"Second which one? Yes or no?"
"Both."
Hiccup: Now, tell me about this bite mark.
[She starts writing in the dirt]
Gobber: [translating Gothi's writing] When I was a turkey neck... [gets hit by Gothi] Ow! Teenager. Sorry. I had a longing to climb Glacier Island to find pure glacial water known for its healing properties. So, I went with two vegetables. [gets hit by Gothi] Ow! Vikings. Sorry. [chuckles] I'm a bit rusty.
"A bit . . . uh-huh . . . "
[Scene cuts to Gothi's flashback, with Gobber narrating]
[In the flashback, Gothi climbs up the mountain, with two Vikings behind her]
"Wow. Anyone notice she looks the same as she does now, only with black hair?"
"Yeah. I mean, she doesn't look like a teen. She looks like an old lady teen."
Both twins winced as Gothi hit them with her stick.
Gobber: [translating Gothi's writing] We had only been at the summit for a few hours, when we were hit by a terrible snowstorm. That's when it attacked.
[Storm brews in flashback]
Gobber: It was vicious. Relentless. And impossible to see in the white-out.
[In the flashback, Gothi is cornered by the Snow Wraith and it lands behind her]
Gobber: [translating Gothi's writing] The Snow Wraith.
[In the flashback, the Snow Wraith bites Gothi's hand as she hits it with her stick. It hurls her into a mound of snow before walking past]
[Returns to current situation]
Gobber: [translating Gothi's text] I'll never know why it didn't finish me off that day. I left knowing only one thing... that I never wanted to smooch that dragon again. Smooch? [gets hit by Gothi] Ow! See! Never wanted to see it again. You know, your drawing ain't what it used to be, old woman. [Gothi prepares to hit him] But your swing, strong as ever!
"Scared?" Hiccup teased.
"Shut up, Toothpick."
"Uh, excuse me, Meathead? 'Toothpick'?"
Hiccup: Gothi, a tooth from the Snow Wraith is the key to unlocking the Dragon Eye. You have to help us find it.
Gothi: [frowns and scribbles in the dirt]
Gobber: [translating Gothi's writing] I can't say that to him. He's the Chief's son!
"What'd she say?" Hiccup asked.
"She cursed!" Snotlout said excitedly. "Can you teach me?"
"Uh, no." Spitelout glared at Snotlout, and he blushed.
"I mean, watch your tongue. Or stick!"
[Gothi erases scribbles and rewites]
Gobber: She says, no way she's ever going back. And besides, Berk needs her. It's true. She's the best healer we've got.
Hiccup: Well, Gobber can cover for you. Huh?
Gobber: Oh, well, uh, of course I can. I've watched Gothi work so many times, I know this place like the back of my hand.
[lifts up hook, before lifting up the other hand]
Gobber: Uh... [chuckles]
Hiccup: You remember the viciousness of the Snow Wraith. I get that. But you also remember how it was to be my age, to want to explore, to need to see what else is out there. To get answers to questions you haven't even asked yet. This will help me do all of that. But only... only if you help me unlock it.
"OOOO, touching." Ruff said, and wiped a fake tear from her eye.
"You are ready to become a chief, my friend. You are ready to make speeches to convince people to give you chocolate!" Tuff said dramatically.
[Gothi smiles in approval]
[Scene cuts to the gang flying towards Glacier Island]
Hiccup: Look at the size of that island.
Fishlegs: Oh! The Book of Dragons mentions the Snow Wraith, but doesn't have any information on it. Can you believe this? A brand-new dragon. It's been so long, I've forgotten what this feeling is. Sorry. Excited about the new dragon.
"Yeah, I am too." Hiccup watched the screen intently.
Astrid: You mean the dragon that single-handedly wiped out Gothi's entire search party.
Fishlegs: That would be correct. So worth the long flight.
Snotlout: Speak for yourself! Your neck hair's not covered in old lady drool!
Gothi raised her staff.
"Sorry! Sorry!"
She whacked him anyway. Astrid smiled at Gothi.
Gothi: [snoring]
Astrid: Okay, here we are.
Hiccup: Oh, thank Thor.
[Snotlout lifts his hand to help Gothi down Hookfang, but as she holds his hand, Snotlout retracts it, sending her tumbling down]
Snotlout: Oh! Yak hands. Oh, I'm so sorry. Are you okay? [laughs] Uhh! [gets tripped by Gothi] Fair enough.
Astrid: You know, we should bring her along more often.
"Exactly!" Astrid said.
Gothi: [inspects the island before shrugging]
Snotlout: Great, just great! She's got nothin'. Someone else is wearing that bag of bones home. She's all knees and elbows
[wind howls as the gang tries to shield against it]
Snotlout: Can we please do something? My mouth is starting to freeze shut.
Astrid: Don't get our hopes up.
Astrid said the same thing as her screen self at the same time.
Hiccup: Well, then we should work fast to find this Snow Wraith. Because we're not leaving until we do.
Astrid: Let's split up so we can cover more ground.
Hiccup: Good idea. Dragon call if you come across anything.
Snotlout: Quick, Hookfang, before she sees us! [ses Gothi already sitting on Hookfang] Ah! Hi. I was just talking about you.
[dragons take off before the scene shows a zoom-in of the Sow Wraith behind them opening its eyes]
[Scene cuts back on Berk]
Gobber: Hmm. Hmm. Okay, you got this, Gobber. Just follow the steps. Listen, diagnose, heal. Just like riding your first wild yak. [sniffs a jar of medicine] Ohh, you never forget that first kick. [jar shatters] [distant screams] Ahh. I'll have to heal that later. Ahem. Okay, first sick, nasty Viking, Doctor Gobber is in the house. [Magnus hobbles in] Magnus, what seems to be the problem?
Magnus: The problem?! My leg is caught in an old dragon trap, Gobber.
Gobber: Oh-oh, yes, of course it is. [whacks away Magnus' walking stick] Ah, I remember my first leg break. [twists Magnus' leg, bone cracks]
Everyone winced as Gobber blushed. "That cannot feel good."
Magnus: Aaaah!
Gobber: Let me clean up that wound for you.
[pours jar of liquid on Magnus' leg]
Magnus: Aah! Aah, it burns! It burns!
Gobber: Ah, that just means it's working.
"I bet you didn't even know what that was."
Magnus: [screaming, shakes leg on fire]
Gobber: [splashes water on it] Cured.
[drags unconscious Magnus away]
Gobber: Next.
"Oh, Thor, have mercy on us!" Magnus cried.
[Scene cuts back to Glacier Island]
Hiccup: Anybody find anything?
Ruffnut: All we found was some scattered yak bones.
Fishlegs: I-I didn't see anything, but I had this weird feeling that something was watching me.
Snotlout: Oh, I had a weird feeling, too. Like this old lady was stuck on my back.
Tuffnut: Aah! Two heads! Oh, sorry, guys. I mean, on you two, it works. I've seen it before. I'm used to it.
[Storm brews]
Astrid: Hiccup, maybe we should get out of here. That looks like a huge storm.
Hiccup: No. We should dig in here and wait for the Snow Wraith to show itself. Remember, it likes to attack when you can't see it.
"Is that supposed to be a good thing?" Fishlegs asked.
"If we want to find it, yes. It will attack during the snowstorm." Hiccup said brightly.
Fishlegs: Great. Just great.
[Scene cuts back to Berk]
Gobber: [stares through magnifying glass at a foot] Mm-hmm. My official diagnosis is... a thorn.
Viking Patient: Yes, I told you that already!
Gobber: Not to worry, I can remove it right quick.
Viking Patient: The thorn?
Gobber: The foot.
"Why remove the foot instead of a thorn?" Astrid asked, confused.
"It's fun." Gobber said. The viking with a thorn in his foot threw Gobber a nasty look.
"Not everyone wants to be an amputee."
Gobber: Hmm, no. Uh, no. No. Aha! [wields an axe] This was what my mother used to do for me.
"I'm guessing that's how you lost your leg?"
[turns around to see Viking gone]
Gobber: Some people just don't appreciate the practice of medicine.
[Scene cuts to Glacier Island]
Hiccup: Use your dragons as extra protection from the wind!
Fishlegs: It's the Snow Wraith! Oh! Okay, I'm gonna be okay. I'm gonna be okay.
[Dives in tent. Suddenly tent is ripped away.]
Fishlegs: Ohh!
Hiccup: Hold your ground and fire back!
Astrid: Fire back where? We can't see it.
Hiccup: Actually, you know what? Take cover!
"That's probably your first smart decision."
[Snow Wraith fires. Hiccup and Snotlout are partially covered in snow, only the top parts of their bodies showing.]
Snotlout: Uhh!
Hiccup: Whoa.
Snow Wraith: [roaring]
[Scene shows Snow Wraith's thermal vision. Snotlout's image is blended in with the surroundings in his view]
"Interesting." Hiccup murmured. "It looks like it can only see heat!"
"Yeah, but we don't know that!" Astrid said, gesturing to the screen.
Snotlout: [Snow Wraith sniffs him] Aah!
Hiccup: Toothless, warning shot.
[Toothless fires before Snow Wraith and the others follow suit. Shots hit the the pile of snow Hiccup and Toothless are buried in]
Hiccup: Cease fire! Cease fire!
[Astrid is knocked off cliff by Snow Wraith]
Astrid: Stormfly!
[Stormfly helps her up]
Hiccup: All right, I've had just about enough of this dragon, bud. Do your thing. [Toothless echo-locates] Toothless, now! Multiple blasts!
[hits Snow Wraith but it ducks]
Hiccup: I think it's gone. Everybody okay? Everybody here?
Ruffnut: What do you mean by "here"?
Snotlout: I have a question, Hiccup. What exactly is your plan to get a Snow Wraith tooth? Take it out of one of our dead bodies?
Tuffnut: If all goes well, it'll be Ruffnut's dead body. And the Wraith tooth.
Hiccup: Hold on, quiet. Gothi wants to tell us something.
Fishlegs: She says we should've left when we had the chance.
"Well, we couldn't have left in a second!"
[distant roaring]
[Scene cuts back to Berk]
[Agnar throws up into his helmet]
Gobber: Don't you worry, Agnar. I've seen her whip this stomach cure up a thousand times.
[places ingredients into cauldron]
Gobber: One dab, eye of yak. Would that be one eye or a dab of an eye?
[knocks over a bottle of green liquid into cauldron]
Gobber: Ah! Whoa.
[sneezes into cauldron twice]
Gobber: Drink this three times a day and come back and see me if it doesn't kill you.
Hiccup facepalmed. "You have no idea what you're doing, do you?"
"Nope." Gobber said cheerfully.
[Agnar gasps]
Gobber: I'm just kidding. Hopefully.
"'Hopefully'?"Agnar gasped.
[Scene cuts back to Glacier Island]
Snotlout: Okay, that thing was gnarly.
Hiccup: Astrid, are you okay?
Astrid: Yep, barely.
Fishlegs: Hiccup, you know I want a shot at this as badly as you, but maybe we should get out of here. We're just sitting ducks in this storm.
Hiccup: W-Wait a minute. What did you just say?
Snotlout: He said we're sitting ducks. And for once, I agree with him.
Hiccup: Sitting ducks. Yes, yes! Yes, that's exactly what we need to be.
"Alright! Hiccup has officially lost his mind. I always knew this day would come." Snotlout didn't realize he had called Hiccup by his name instead of Useless.
Astrid: Excuse me?
Hiccup: What if we could make the Snow Wraith think it sees us when we're not here?
Tuffnut: You can make yourself invisible? Why does he get to do all the cool stuff? I just have to sit here with you as a sister.
Snotlout: Will you two be quiet for ten seconds?
"Okay! Wait, how much is ten seconds?" Tuff asked.
Hiccup: Tuff's not that far off. Look, the Snow Wraith didn't have any trouble seeing us until Snotlout got buried in the snow. And Gothi said it couldn't find her when she fell into a snowbank. I think that's because it sees body heat in the same way Toothless can find things with sound.
"Hit the spot." Hiccup complemented himself.
Hiccup: We'll use this to our advantage to confuse it. Then, while it's distracted, we'll net it and get that tooth.
"Net it with what?"
Astrid: And you're sure it will work?
Hiccup: Uhh...
Astrid: Of course not.
Snotlout: I hate you. You know that?
Hiccup: Yes, I am aware of that. All right, gang, let's get to work.
[Several dummies constructed by the gang stand in the snow while the gang hide in a cave not far off]
Hiccup: Pretty good. Now, if I'm right, when we light these on fire, the Snow Wraith will think they're us and attack. Then we'll have the drop on it.
"It will think the statues on fire are us?" Snotlout asked.
"Genius." Gobber said.
"That's not what I was going to say! I was going to say stupid!"
Snotlout: Wait, wait, wait! Look at how realistically gorgeous my statue is. I can't in good conscience send that into flames.
[Snotlout's statue's head is blown off by the wind]
"Uhh . . . Beheaded?" Fishlegs said, as Snotlout's jaw dropped open and Astrid laughed.
Astrid: I'll work through the pain and do it for you.
Snotlout: Wow, you'd do that for me, Astrid?
"Not for you." Astrid promised. "It'll be fun to light a statue of Snotlout on fire, if I can't do Snotlout. But who says I can't set Snotlout on fire?" She shot a mischievous glance at him, and he gulped, scooting away.
Hiccup: All right, Toothless, light 'em up. [Toothless blasts in the dummies]
Snotlout: [Removes helmet] Somewhere in the world, a silent tear was just cried.
"By you." Hiccup said.
Fishlegs: Hiccup, I don't know if this... [Snow Wraith swoops over]
Hiccup: Wait, look! Okay, next time it comes in, we go.
Snow Wraith: [roaring] [destroys Snotlout's statue]
Snotlout: Oh, no, you did not!
[Hookfang lights up a fire jacket in anger, causing the cave to melt. Toothless rushes forward to protect Hiccup, sending them both tumbling out and trapping the rest of the gang in the cave]
"Protective dragon." Gobber said. "Maybe we don't have to kill them."
Hiccup smiled. He knew Toothless would do that. He loved his dragon. Wait! Toothless! Where was he? Was he okay? Fortunately, no one notice his drastic change in expression.
[Scene cuts to in the cave]
Snotlout: Hookfang! Get over here now! [tries to break out]
Hiccup: Thanks, bud. Toothless, look out!
[Snow Wraith swoops over them]
Hiccup: If it can see our body heat, then we are way too easy a target out here.
[walks to the middle of the blazing statues]
Hiccup: This should even the odds a little. It won't be able to make us out within the heat of these fires. Do your thing, bud.
[Toothless echolocates, but picks up nothing]
Hiccup: Easy, bud. Nothing. Where is he?
[Scene shows the thermal vision of the Snow Wraith, clearly making out Hiccup and Toothless' image]
"It's behind you!" all of Berk cried.
Hiccup: Keep going. Keep going, keep going.
[Snow Wraith lands behind them]
[Scene shows to Snow Wraith's thermal vision. The duo can be seen clearly]
"We'll miss you when you die, Hiccup." Tuff assured him. Ruff nodded. Hiccup glared.
Hiccup: Keep going. Keep going.
[Spins around to see Snow Wraith and Gothi rushes forward]
Hiccup: Gothi, no!
[Scene shows Snow Wraith's thermal vision. Gothi rapidly attacking it with her staff]
"Remind me not to get on her bad side." Fishlegs voiced what everyone was thinking.
Gothi smiled.
Hiccup: Toothless, plasma blast! And careful not to hit the crazy little woman with the staff.
"Sorry?" he offered to Gothi meekly.
Gothi accepted it.
"Hey!" Snotlout shouted. "He gets pardoned and not me?"
[Toothless blasts the Snow Wraith and it let go of Gothi. A fireball hits it]
Snotlout: Oh, yeah, that's right. Snotlout got us out of the snow.
Astrid: Yeah, and you're also the one that got us buried in it to begin with.
Snotlout: Ah, details.
Hiccup: Okay, we have him surrounded. Let's get that tooth.
[Snow Wraith flies away]
Hiccup: No! We can't lose him.
Hiccup sighed. "Notice my plans tend to never work?"
Tuffnut: Actually, he lost us.
Astrid: Hiccup, we should get out of here while we can.
Hiccup: Not yet. This isn't over. [Gothi taps him on the shoulder] Not now, Gothi. Gang, we came here for a Snow Wraith tooth and... [Gothi taps him again] I-I said in a minute, Gothi [Gothi shows him a tooth on her staff] And we are not leaving... Gothi! Without... Oh. Oh, a tooth. A tooth!
"The moral of the story Do not get on Gothi's bad side." Fishlegs started.
"And whenever she taps you on the shoulder, you should listen." Hiccup finished.
[Scene cuts back to Berk]
Hiccup: So, Gobber, how was it being Gothi?
Gobber: Well, I didn't get to wallop anybody with my staff, but...
Agnar: Gobber! Gobber! I must have more of that potion you made me earlier.
Everyone in the room gaped at the screen.
"No way is he a competent healer!" Snotlout said.
Gobber: So, it cured your stomach ailments, did it?
Agnar: [throws up onto the ground] Far from it! But it cured something else. It's made my hair grow back!
Snotlout: Congrats, Agnar. You look so... [Agnar throws up] ...good.
Gobber: Well, at least you got only one of the side effects. Ugh...
[Agnar breaks wind]
Hiccup: Ugh... [coughs] Well, Gobber, just whip up some more of that potion for him.
Gobber: Uh, well, it was very complicated, and I'm retired. Gothi, why don't you take this one?
[Gothi whacks him with her staff]
Hiccup: You really have no idea what was in that potion, do you?
"I do!" Tuff said. "Green stuff, a sneeze, and some more stuff."
"Congrats. I rate you a . . . zero." Snotlout told him.
"That's good, right?"
Gobber: No, not a drop. But here's your key.
[Hiccup takes the Snow Wraith tooth and fits it into the keyhole. Nothing happens]
Snotlout: We almost died... for that?! No, there's gotta be more to it than this.
Hiccup: It just doesn't make any sense.
Tuffnut: Welcome to my world, sister. Nothing makes sense and you got itchy teeth.
"I think you mean brother." Astrid laughed.
[After a day of trying to unlock the Dragon Eye, it is night]
Hiccup: All right. [yawns] That's it, I'm calling it a night. Maybe tomorrow. Fresh eyes.

Hiccup: Toothless, come here. Do that again, bud. Give me a low flame. [Toothless breathes a low flame into the Dragon Eye and it projects maps onto the wall]
Hiccup: Whoa. This changes... everything.
"Yahoo?" Fishlegs said. "Is that a good thing?"
"OF COURSE it's a good thing!" Hiccup exclaimed. "I wonder what happens-"
"Next?" Voice said as the screen started to glow again.
