Astrid: It's a mess. You must feel horrible. You've lost everything. Your father, your tribe, your best friend...

Damian: *Whispers To His Sister* Not Helping Sis.

Hiccup: Thank you for summing that up. Why couldn't I have killed that dragon when I found him in the woods? It would have been better for everyone.

Astrid: Yep. The rest of us would have done it. So why didn't you?... Why didn't you?

Hiccup: I don't know. I couldn't.

Astrid: That's not an answer.

Hiccup: Why is this so important to you all of a sudden?

Astrid: Because I want to remember what you say, right now.

Hiccup: Oh, for the love of-- I was a coward! I was weak! I wouldn't kill a dragon!

Astrid: You said "wouldn't" that time.

Hiccup: Whatever! I wouldn't! Three hundred years, and I'm the first Viking who wouldn't kill a dragon!

Astrid: First to ride one, though. So...?

Hiccup: ...I wouldn't kill him because he looked as frightened as I was. I looked at him, and I saw myself.

Astrid: I bet he's really frightened now. What are you going to do about it?

Hiccup: Eh, probably something stupid.

Astrid: Good. But you've already done that.

Hiccup: Then something crazy!

Astrid: That's more like it!

Stoick: Sound your positions. Stay within earshot.

Viking #1: Here.

Viking #2: One length to your stern.

Viking #3: On your starboard flank.

Viking #4: Three widths to port.

Viking #5: Ahead, at your bow.

Viking #6: Haven't a clue.

Gobber: Listen... Stoick... I was overhearing some of the men just now and, well, some of them are wondering what it is we're up to here-- not me of course, I know you're always the man with the plan-- but some, not me, are wondering if there is in fact a plan at all, what it might be?

Stoick: Find the nest and take it.

Gobber: Ah. Of course. Send them running. The old Viking fallback. Nice and simple.

Stoick: Shhh.

Stoick (cont.): Step aside.

Viking: Bear to port.

Fishlegs (o.s.): If you're planning on getting eaten, I'd definitely go with the Gronckle.

Tuffnut: You were wise to seek help from the world's most deadly weapon. That's me.

Hiccup: Uh...

Snotlout: I love this plan!

Hiccup: I didn't...

Ruffnut: You're crazy! I like that...

Astrid: So? What is the plan?

Damian: We're All Ears.

Gobber: Ah. I was wondering where that went.

Stoick: Stay low and ready your weapons. We're here.

[At the arena, Hiccup has released the Monstrous Nightmare. He gently guides it toward Snotlout, who is scared and grabs a knife.]

Astrid: Uh-uh.

Snotlout: Wait! What are you--?!

Hiccup: Relax. It's okay... it's okay. [Snotlout bonds with the Nightmare]

Snotlout: Where are you going?!

Hiccup: You're going to need something to help you hold on.

[The teens glance at the three other dragons, all out of their cages]

Stoick: When we crack this mountain open, all hell is going to break loose.

Gobber: In my undies. Good thing I brought extras.

Stoick: No matter how this ends, it ends today.

[Catapults break a hole into the side of the mountain, and a flaming ball of straw reveals thousands of dragons inside. Stoick charges in screaming loudly, and all the dragons flee in terror, not a single one attacking.]

Gobber: Is that it?

: We've done it! [A loud roar is heard and the mountain starts to crack]

Stoick: This isn't over. Form your ranks! Hold together!

Stoick (cont.): Get clear!

Gobber: Beard of Thor... what is that? [The Red Death, a dragon more that five times the size of the Vikings' ships, breaks out of the mountain, roaring furiously]

Stoick: Odin, help us. Catapults!

Viking #3: Get to the ships!

Stoick: No! NO!

Gobber: Heh. Smart, that one.

Stoick: I was a fool. [To Spitelout] Lead the men to the far side of the island.

Spitelout: Right. Everybody to the far side of the island!

Stoick: Gobber, go with the men.

Gobber: I think I'll stay, just in case you're thinking of doing something crazy.

Stoick: I can buy them a few minutes if I give that thing someone to hunt.

Gobber: Then I can double that time.

Stoick: HERE!

Gobber: Oh, no, HERE!

Gobber (cont.): Come on! Bite me!

Stoick: No, me!

Hiccup: Ruff, Tuff, watch your backs! Move, Fishlegs!

Tuffnut: LOOK AT US! WE'RE ON A DRAGON! WE'RE ON DRAGONS! ALL OF US!

Hiccup: Up, let's move it!

Gobber: Every bit the boar-headed, stubborn Viking you ever were!

Hiccup: Fishlegs, break it down!

Fishlegs: Okay! Heavily armored skull and tail made for bashing and crushing! Steer clear of both! Small eyes, large nostrils! Relies on hearing and smell!

Hiccup: Okay! Lout, Legs, hang in its blind spot! Make some noise, keep it confused! Ruff, Tuff, find out if it has a shot limit! Make it mad!

Ruffnut: That's my specialty!

Tuffnut: Since when?! Everyone knows I'm more irritating! See?!

Hiccup: Just do what I told you! I'll be back as soon as I can!

Snotlout: Don't worry, we got it covered!

Fishlegs: Yeah!

Tuffnut: Troll!

Ruffnut: Butt-Elf!

Tuffnut: Bride of Grendel!

Fishlegs: Uh, this thing doesn't have a blind spot!

Hiccup: There!

Hiccup (cont.): Go help the others!

Damian/Astrid:Copy That.

Hiccup (cont.): Okay, hold on. Hold on.

Snotlout: It's working!

Fishlegs: Yeah! It's working!

Snotlout: Agghh!

Fishlegs: I've lost power on the Gronckle! SNOTLOUT! DO SOMETHING!

Fishlegs (cont.): I'm okay! Less okay...!

Snotlout: I can't miss! What's wrong buddy? Got something in your eye?

Astrid: Yeah! You're the Viking!

Snotlout: Whoa!

Hiccup: Dad?

Hiccup (cont.): You got it, bud.

Stoick: Hiccup. I'm sorry... for-- for everything.

Hiccup: Yeah, me too.

Stoick: You don't have to go up there.

Hiccup: We're Vikings. It's an occupational hazard.

Stoick: I'm proud to call you my son.

Hiccup: Thanks, Dad.

Astrid: He's up! Get Snotlout out of there!

Twins: I'm on it!

Tuffnut: I'm on it first! I'm ahead of you!

Ruffnut: Hey! Let me drive!

Tuffnut: I can't believe that worked!

Gobber: Night Fury! Get down!

Hiccup: Did you get her?

Astrid: Go.

Hiccup: That thing has wings! Okay, let's see if it can use them!

Hiccup (cont.): Do you think that did it?

Hiccup (cont.): Well, he can fly.

Hiccup: Okay, Toothless, time to disappear! Come on, bud!

Hiccup (cont.): Here it comes!

Hiccup (cont.): Watch out! Okay, time's up! Let's see if this works.

Hiccup (cont.): COME ON! IS THAT THE BEST YOU CAN DO?!

Hiccup (cont.): Stay with me, buddy. We're good. Just a little bit longer.

Hiccup (cont.): Hold, Toothless... NOW!

Hiccup (cont.): No! NO!
