(Redirected from How to Train Your Dragon)

How to Train Your Dragon is a 2010 animated film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Universal Pictures, loosely based on the children's novel by Cressida Cowell. The film focuses on a Viking village called Berk, the inhabitants of which fight a never-ending war with multiple varieties of dragon, until the chieftan's misfit son, Hiccup, accidentally captures one and ends up befriending it.

One adventure will change two worlds. taglines

Dialogue

[edit]
Hiccup (v.o.): This is Berk. It's twelve days north of Hopeless, and a few degrees south of Freezing to Death. [We glide through the fog to see two giant Viking statues with fires burning in their mouths.] Hiccup (v.o): It's located solidly on the Meridian of Misery. [We go past the statues only to dive through a crashing wave and jump to a closer shot of the island. As we pan in a circular motion, we see several structures, houses, and a sheep farm.] Hiccup (v.o): My village. In a word, sturdy. And it's been here for seven generations, but, every single building is new. We have fishing, hunting, and a charming view of the sunsets. [We land on two sheep grazing in the grass.] Hiccup (v.o): The only problems are the pests. (A dragon carries one sheep away. The other resumes grazing.) You see, most places have mice or mosquitoes. We have... [A dragon fires at the screen as a door slams shut, a boy cowering behind it] Hiccup (v.o.): -dragons. Most people would leave. Not us. We're Vikings. We have, stubbornness issues. (Hiccup runs outdoors, where all the houses are on fire and Vikings are tussling with dragons all around)
[Hiccup is seen dodging several Vikings. A nearby explosion from the blast of a teal Gronckle causes him to trip and a male Viking comes up.]
Viking: [roars in Hiccup's face; cheery] Mornin'! [A big viking grabs Hiccup protectively by the collar of his shirt, yanking him out of the path of a strafing dragon]
Big Viking: Hiccup?! What is he doing out aga--?! What are you doing out?! Get inside!
Hiccup (v.o.): That's Stoick the Vast. Chief of the tribe. They say that when he was a baby, he popped a dragon's head clean off of its shoulders. (Stoick throws a wooden cart at a dragon, knocking it out mid-air) Do I believe it? Yes, I do. Stoick: What have we got? Viking: Gronckles, Nadders, Zipplebacks. Oh, and Hoark saw a Monstrous Nightmare. Stoick: Any Night Furies? Viking: None so far. [Burning embers land on Stoick's shoulder. He casually brushes it off.] Stoick: Good. Viking 2: Hoist the torches! [Two enormous torches are raised and lit. The dragons swarm around them.]

[Hiccup runs into a blacksmith shop and puts on an apron]
Gobber: Oh, nice of you to join the party! I thought you'd been carried off.
Hiccup: What, who, me? No, come on; I'm way too muscular for their taste. They wouldn't know what to do with all... [flexing] this.
Gobber: Well, they need toothpicks, don't they?
Hiccup (v.o.): The meat-head with attitude and interchangeable hands is Gobber. I've been his apprentice ever since I was little. Well... littler.
[scene cuts to Stoick on the watch-tower] Stoick: We move to the lower defenses. We'll counter-attack with the catapults. [A dragon swoops down and sets another house on fire.] Hiccup (v.o.): See? Old village, lots and lots of new houses. Viking: FIRE!
Girl: Alright let’s go!
[The Viking teens are seen carrying buckets of water as Hiccup in the voiceover introduces them one by one]
Hiccup (v.o.): Oh, and that's Fishlegs, Snotlout, the Twins, Ruffnut and Tuffnut, and... (dreamily) Astrid. Oh, their job is so much cooler. (Slow motion shot of the teens walking away from an explosion)

[Hiccup leans out of the smithing window to get a better look. Gobber lifts him up and back into the shop.] Hiccup: Aw, come on! Let me out, please! I need to make my mark!
Gobber: Oh, you've made plenty of marks. All in the wrong places!
Hiccup: Please, two minutes. I'll kill a dragon, my life will get infinitely better. I might even get a date!
Gobber: You can't lift a hammer. You can't swing an axe. You can't even throw one of these! [holds up a set of bolas, which a Viking snatches and throws at a Gronckle]
Hiccup: Okay, fine. But this... [gestures to a catapult invention] will throw it for me. [touches the machine and it goes off, firing a set of bolas out the window that hits a Viking]
Gobber: Now, this right here... [gestures to Hiccup's invention] ...is what I'm talking about!
Hiccup: It's a... mild calibration issue--
Gobber: Don't--no--Hiccup. If you ever want to get out there to fight dragons, you need to stop all... [gestures to all of Hiccup] this.
Hiccup: But you just pointed to all of me!
Gobber: Yes! That's it! Stop being all of you.
Hiccup: [nodding and glaring at Gobber] Ohh...
Gobber: Oh, yes.
Hiccup: [awkwardly, but standing his ground] You-you, sir, are playing a dangerous game. Keeping this much raw... "Viking-ness" contained? THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES!
Gobber: [flatly] I'll take my chances. [tosses him a sword] Sword. Sharpen. Now.
Hiccup: [voice-over] One day I'll get out there. Because killing a dragon is everything around here. A Nadder head is sure to get me at least noticed. Gronkles are tough. Taking down one of those would definitely get me a girlfriend. A Zippleback? Exotic. Two heads, twice the status. And then there's the Monstrous Nightmare. Only the best Vikings go after those. They have this nasty habit of setting themselves on fire.
[A fiery Monstrous Nightmare attacks the catapult crew]
Stoick: Reload! [calmly] I'll take care of this.
Hiccup: [voice-over] But the ultimate prize is the dragon no one's ever seen. We call it the--
Viking 1: NIGHT FURY!
Viking 2: GET DOWN!
[The catapult Stoick and the other men are on suddenly explodes. The Night Fury Toothless, responsible for the explosion, shoots by, barely visible.]
Stoick: [To his other men] JUMP!
Hiccup: [voice-over] This thing never steals food, never shows itself, and [The catapult is blasted once again by Toothless] never misses. No one has ever killed a Night Fury. That's why I'm gonna be the first.
Gobber: Man the fort, Hiccup. They need me out there! [He attaches an axe to his arm and begins to run out, but turns around at the doorway.] Gobber (cont.): Stay. Put. There. You know what I mean. [Hiccup runs outside the fort, bringing his bolas launcher] Viking #6: Hiccup, where are you going?! Viking #7: Come back here! Hiccup: Yeah, I know! Be right back! [Hiccup is pushing a cart with the automated catapult on it] [Stoick captures several Nadders in a net and wrestles them. One tries to blast him with fire.] Stoick: Mind yourselves! The devils still have some juice in them! [Hiccup sets up his bola catapult on an empty hill and looks around.] Hiccup: Come on. Gimme something to shoot at, gimme something to shoot at. [The camera pans around the night sky, and catches on a shadow, visibly blotting out the stars. It fires, and an explosion illuminates it, showing a visible shadow. Hiccup shoots, and a loud cry is heard as the shadow is seen plummeting down into a forest] Hiccup: Oh, I hit it! YES! I HIT IT! Did anybody see that? [A Monstrous Nightmare shows up and crushes Hiccup's bola launcher.] Hiccup: Except for you. [A shrill cry sounds from the hill, and catches Stoick's attention. He turns to see the Monstrous Nightmare chasing Hiccup, and gets up to go help him.] Stoick: DO NOT let them escape! Spitelout: Right! [Hiccup runs behind a torch pole and hides, just as flames reach around the corner. He looks behind it and on the other side, the Nightmare reaches to get Hiccup. Stoick punches the beast and jumps back to defend himself. The dragon tries to breathe fire, but coughs up only a few drops of flaming liquid instead, having exhausted its shots] Stoick: You're all out. [Stoick promptly defeats the Nightmare, which quickly flees.] Hiccup (v.o.): Oh, and there's one more thing you need to know... [The torch poll collapses and the torch starts to roll through the village, leaving destruction in it's wake.] Hiccup: Sorry, Dad.

The torch rolls onto the Nadders Stoick netted earlier, freeing them. The dragons manage to escape, hauling off most of Berk's food and livestock. With the raid over everyone turns there attention to Hiccup, it's like the entire island is glaring at him.] Hiccup:...Okay, but I hit a Night Fury. [Stoick angrily grabs him by the collar of his shirt and drags him away] It's not like the last few times, Dad! I mean, I really actually hit it! You guys were busy, and I had a very clear shot. It went down just off Raven Point. Let's get a search party out there before it--
Stoick: [shouts angrily] STOP! [Hiccup stops] Just...stop. Every time you step outside, disaster falls! Can you not see that I have bigger problems?! Winter is almost here, and I have an entire village to feed!
Hiccup: [lowers his voice] Well, between you and me, the village could do with a little less feeding, don't you think?
[A viking at the back rubs his stomach as if to say "Are you calling me fat?"]
Stoick: This isn't a joke, Hiccup! [sighs] Why can't you follow the simplest orders?
Hiccup: I-I can't stop myself! I see a dragon and I have to just...kill it. You know? It's... who I am, Dad.
Stoick: [sighs] You are... many things, Hiccup. But a dragon killer is not one of them. Get back to the house.

Hiccup: I really did hit one.
Gobber: Sure, Hiccup.
Hiccup: [about his father] He never listens.
Gobber: It runs in the family.
Hiccup: And when he does, it's always with this... disappointed scowl, like someone skimped on the meat in his sandwich. [imitating his father] "Excuse me, barmaid! I'm afraid you brought me the wrong offspring! I ordered an extra-large boy with beefy arms, extra guts, and glory on the side! This here, this is a talking fishbone!"
Gobber: Now, you're thinkin' about this all wrong. It's not so much what you look like. It's what's inside that he can't stand.
Hiccup: [sarcastically] Thank you for summing that up.
Gobber: Look, the point is, stop trying so hard to be something you're not.
Hiccup: I just wanna be one of you guys. [goes inside his house, then goes out the back door, out of his village, to look for Toothless]

Gobber: Trolls exist! They steal your socks. But only the left ones. [mutters] What's with that?

Stoick: When I was a boy...
Gobber: Oh, here we go.
Stoick: My father told me to bang my head against a rock. So I did it! I thought he was crazy, but I didn't question him. And you know what happened?
Gobber: [sarcastically] You got a headache.
Stoick: That rock split in two. It taught me what a Viking can do, Gobber. He can... He can crush mountains, level forests, tame seas! Even as a boy, I knew who I was, what I had to become... Hiccup is not that boy.
Gobber: You can't stop him, Stoick. You can only prepare him. I know it seems hopeless, but the truth is, you won't always be around to protect him. He's going to get out there again. He's probably out there now.

[Hiccup returns home after failing to kill Toothless. He tries to sneak up to his bedroom, but Stoick hears him]
Stoick: Hiccup.
Hiccup: Dad! Uh, I have to talk to you, Dad.
Stoick: I need to speak with you too, son.
[They both take deep breaths and speak at once.]
Hiccup: I've decided I don't want to fight dragons.
Stoick: I think it's time you learned to fight dragons.
Hiccup and Stoick: [beat] What?
Stoick: Uh, you go first.
Hiccup: [kindly] No, no, you go first.
Stoick: Alright. [takes another deep breath] You get your wish. Dragon Training. You start in the morning.
Hiccup: [panicked] Oh, man, I should have gone first! Uh, 'cause I was thinking, you know, we have a surplus of dragon-fighting Vikings. But do we have enough...bread-making Vikings? Or small home repair Vikings?
Stoick: [not paying attention; drops a large battle axe into Hiccup's arms] You'll need this.
Hiccup: I don't wanna fight dragons.
Stoick: [chuckles] Oh, come on. Yes, you do.
Hiccup: Rephrase: Dad, I can't kill dragons!
Stoick: But you will kill dragons!
Hiccup: No, I'm really very extra sure that I won't.
Stoick: It's time, Hiccup.
Hiccup: [desperately] Can you not hear me?!
Stoick: This is serious, son! [takes the axe from Hiccup] When you carry this axe, [returns the axe] you carry all of us with you. Which means you walk like us, you talk like us, you think like us. No more of... [gestures to Hiccup] this.
Hiccup: [sighs] You just gestured to all of me.
Stoick: Deal?
Hiccup: This conversation is feeling very one-sided...
Stoick: Deal?
Hiccup: [sighs; giving in] Deal.

Gobber: WELCOME TO DRAGON TRAINING!
Astrid: No turning back.
[The teens enter the arena and look around in wonder]
Tuffnut: I hope I get some serious burns!
Ruffnut: I'm hoping for some mauling, like on my shoulder or lower back.
Astrid: [wryly] Yeah, it's only fun if you get a scar out of it.
Hiccup: [entering behind the others; unenthusiastic] Yeah, no kidding, right? Pain, love it.
Tuffnut: Oh, great! Who let him in?
Gobber: Let's get started! The recruit who does best will win the honor of killing his first dragon in front of the entire village.
Snotlout: [mockingly] Hiccup already killed a Night Fury, so does that disqualify him, or...?
[Snotlout and the twins snicker]
Tuffnut: Can I switch classes with the cool Vikings?
Gobber: [aside, to Hiccup] Don't worry, you're small and weak. That'll make you less of a target. They'll see you as sick or insane and go after the more Viking-like teens instead. [aloud, to the other teens] Behind these doors are just a few of the many species you will learn to fight! The Deadly Nadder.
Fishlegs: Speed 8, Armor 16.
Gobber: The Hideous Zippleback.
Fishlegs: Plus 11 stealth times 2.
Gobber: The Monstrous Nightmare.
Fishlegs: Firepower 15.
Gobber: The Terrible Terror.
Fishlegs: Attack 8! Venom 12!
Gobber: [irritated] CAN YOU STOP THAT?! And the... Gronckle.
Fishlegs: [whispers to Hiccup] Jaw strength 8.

[The twins grab the same shield]
Tuffnut: Get your hands off my shield!
Ruffnut: There's, like, a million shields!
Tuffnut: Take that one. It has a flower on it. Girls like flowers.
Ruffnut: [hits Tuffnut on the head with the shield] Oops! Now this one has blood on it.

Gobber: All dragons have a limited number of shots! How many does a Gronckle have?
Snotlout: Uh, five?!
Fishlegs: No, six!
Gobber: Correct! Six! That's one for each of you! [The Gronckle Meatlug blasts Fishlegs' shield] Fishlegs, out.
[Fishlegs runs away, screaming]

[After the first day of Dragon Training]
Gobber: Where did Hiccup go wrong?
Ruffnut: Uh, he showed up?
Tuffnut: He didn't get eaten?
Astrid: He's never where he should be.
Gobber: Thank you, Astrid. You need to live and breathe this stuff. The Dragon Manual. [throws the Dragon Manual on the table] Everything we know about every dragon we know of. [listens to the thunder] No attacks tonight. Hurry up.
Tuffnut: Wait, you mean read?
Ruffnut: While we're still alive?
Snotlout: Why read words when you can just kill the stuff the words tell you stuff about?
Fishlegs: Oh, I've read it like seven times! There's this water dragon that sprays boiling water at your face! [Snotlout, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut stare at him] And-and there's this other one that buries itself for like a week-
Tuffnut: [cuts him off] Yeah, that sounds great. You know, there was a chance I was gonna read that...
Ruffnut: But, now...

[During "Attack" training]
Gobber: Look for its blind spot! Every dragon has one. Find it, hide in it, and strike!
[Tuffnut and Ruffnut huddle in the Deadly Nadder Stormfly’s blind spot]
Ruffnut: Ugh! Do you ever bathe?
Tuffnut: If you don't like it, then just get your own blind spot!
Ruffnut: How about I give you one?!
[Stormfly notices them and breathes fire. They scream and run for cover.]
Gobber: Blind spot, yes. Deaf spot? Not so much.
Hiccup: Hey, hey! So, uh, how would one sneak up on a Night Fury?
Gobber: No one's ever met one and lived to tell the tale. [shouts] Now GET IN THERE!!!
Hiccup: I know, I know, but hypothetically.

[Running from Stormfly, Astrid falls off a wall and lands on top of Hiccup]
Tuffnut: Ooh! Love on the battlefield!
Ruffnut: She could do better.

Gobber: [telling a story] And with one twist, he took my hand and swallowed it whole! And I saw the look on his face. I was delicious! He must have passed the word, because it wasn't a month before another one of them took my leg.
Fishlegs: Isn't it weird to think that your hand was inside a dragon? Like, if your mind was still in control of it, you could have killed the dragon from the inside, by... crushing its heart, or something.
Snotlout: I swear I'm so ANGRY right now! I'll avenge your beautiful hand and your beautiful foot! I'll chop off the legs of every dragon I fight. With my face!
Gobber: Mm-mm-mm, no. It's the wings and the tails you really want. If it can't fly, it can't get away. A downed dragon is a dead dragon.

[Being stalked by a Hideous Zippleback, Barf and Belch]
Fishlegs: Razor-sharp serrated teeth that inject venom for pre-digestion... prefers ambush attack, crushing its victims...
Hiccup: Will you please stop that?!

Gobber: Meet the Terrible Terror!
[From a pet door emerges a small, green dragon about the size of a Chihuahua.]
Tuffnut: Ha! That's like the size of my-- [the Terror leaps onto his face] AAH! OH, GET IT OFF! OH, I AM HURT! I AM VERY MUCH HURT! [The Terrible Terror chases a shiny light created by Hiccup's shield back into the enclosure] [to Astrid, while she glares] Wow, he's better than you ever were.

Stoick: You've been keeping secrets.
Hiccup: I-I have?
Stoick: Just how long did you think you could hide it from me?
Hiccup: I-I don't know what you're...
Stoick: Nothing happens on this island without me hearing about it.
Hiccup: Oh?
Stoick: So let's talk...about that dragon.
Hiccup: Oh, gods... Dad, I'm so sorry, I-I was going to tell you, I just didn't know how to, uh... [Stoick suddenly laughs heartily; Hiccup nervously laughs along] You're... you're not... upset?
Stoick: [still heartily] WHAT? I was hoping for this!
Hiccup: [confused] Uh...You were?
Stoick: And believe me, it only gets better! Just wait 'til you spill a Nadder's guts for the first time! And mount your first Gronckle head on a spear. [Pushes Hiccup in compassion and Hiccup falls down] Oh, WHAT A FEELING! You really had me going there, son! [Hiccup gets up] All those years of the worst Viking Berk has ever seen! [To the sky] Odin, it was rough. [To Hiccup] I almost gave up on you, and all the while, you were holding out on me! [Extremely joyous] OH, THOR ALMIGHTY! [Calms down] Oh! With you doing so well in the ring... [Sits down and scooches closer to Hiccup] we finally have something to talk about.

[During the last day of Dragon Training]
Astrid: Stay out of my way! I'm winning this thing. [runs off]
Hiccup: [after she has already left] Good, please, by all means.
[Stoick smiles and waves at Hiccup, who awkwardly returns the gesture. Astrid approaches Meatlug stealthily]
Astrid: This time. This time, for sure!
[She prepares to attack Meatlug - only to find that Hiccup has somehow already defeated her. The Vikings cheer]
Stoick: [proudly] That's my boy!
Astrid: [furiously, wildly swinging her axe] NO!!! NO!! SON OF A HALF-TROLL, RAT-EATING, MUD-BUCKET!!!
Hiccup: [tries to get away] So, later!
Gobber: Oh-oh, not so fast!
Hiccup: Uh, I'm kind of late for...
Astrid: [livid, jams her axe into his throat] What?! Late for what, exactly?

[After Hiccup stops Toothless from attacking Astrid]
Hiccup: [to Astrid] You just scared him.
Astrid: I scared him?! [pause] Who... is "him?"
Hiccup: Uh, Astrid, Toothless. Toothless, Astrid. [Toothless growls menacingly at her. Astrid stares at the two in disbelief, then runs off to tell the village.] Da, da-da, we're dead! [Toothless shrugs and walks away] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Where do you think you're going?

Astrid: [hanging from a tree branch] Hiccup! Get me down from here!
Hiccup: [pleading] You have to give me a chance to explain!
Astrid: I am not listening to anything you have to say!!
Hiccup: Then I won't speak. Just let me show you. [softer] Please, Astrid.

Hiccup: [Toothless starts to drop] Oh no.
Astrid: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Hiccup: Toothless, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! We need her to LIKE us. [Toothless starts spinning] And now, the spinning. [Deadpan] Thank you for nothing, you useless reptile.

[Hiccup, Astrid, and Toothless return to the cove from the Dragon's Nest after witnessing the Red Death for the first time]
Astrid: No! No, it totally makes sense! It's like a giant beehive. They're the workers, and that's their queen. It controls them. [She dismounts from Toothless' back and runs toward the village] Let's find your dad.
Hiccup: [Also dismounts and stops Astrid] No, no! They'll kill Toothless, no. Astrid, we need to think this through. Carefully.
Astrid: Hiccup, we just discovered the Dragon's Nest. The thing we've been after since Vikings first sailed here! And you want to keep it a secret? To protect your pet dragon? Are you serious?
Hiccup: [looks at her with hardened expression] Yes.
[Astrid looks at him, surprised at his determination; Hiccup looks away]
Astrid: Okay. Then what do we do?
Hiccup: Just give me until tomorrow. I'll figure something out.
Astrid: Okay. [punches Hiccup's arm] That's for kidnapping me. [Hiccup and Toothless exchange confused looks. Astrid leans forward and quickly kisses him on the cheek] That's for... everything else.
Hiccup: [blushingly watches her walk away and Toothless walks beside him giving a smile; stammers] Are you--What are you lookin' at?

[Hiccup is about to step in to fight a Monstrous Nightmare, Hookfang]
Stoick: Well, I can show my face in public again! If anyone had told me that in just a few short weeks, Hiccup would have gone from, well, being, uh...Hiccup...to placing first in dragon training - well, I would have tied him to a mast and shipped him off, for fear he'd gone mad! [laughter] And you know it! But here we are, and no one's more surprised, or more proud, than I am. Today, my boy becomes a Viking! Today, he becomes one of us! [cheering]
Astrid: [appears behind Hiccup] Be careful with that dragon.
Hiccup: [looks nervously up at his father] It's not the dragon I'm worried about.
Astrid: What are you going to do?
Hiccup: Put an end to this. I have to try. Astrid, if something... goes wrong, just make sure they don't find Toothless.
Astrid: I will. Just... promise me it won't go wrong.
Gobber: [appears] It's time, Hiccup. Knock 'em dead.

[Hiccup and Hookfang are face to face. Hiccup drops his knife and shield and reaches out to touch Hookfang. The Vikings start mumbling]
Stoick: What's he doing?
Hiccup: [to Hookfang] It's okay. It's okay. [takes his hat off and throws it aside] I'm not one of them.
[The Vikings gasp in shock]
Stoick: Stop the fight.
Hiccup: No! I need you all to see this. They're not what we think they are. We don't have to kill them.
Stoick: I SAID, STOP THE FIGHT!!! [whacks his hammer on the ring cage railing with a loud clang, which startles Hookfang into attacking Hiccup]

Astrid: It's a mess. You must feel horrible. You've lost everything. Your father, your tribe, your best friend...
Hiccup: Thank you for summing that up. [sadly] Why couldn't I have killed that dragon when I found him in the woods? It would've been better. For everyone.
Astrid: Yep. The rest of us would have done it. So why didn't you? [Hiccup doesn't answer] Why didn't you?
Hiccup: I don't know. I couldn't.
Astrid: That's not an answer.
Hiccup: [irate] Why is this so important to you all of a sudden?
Astrid: Because I want to remember what you say, right now.
Hiccup: [angrily] 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: [snaps] Whatever! I wouldn't! Three hundred years, and I'm the first Viking who wouldn't kill a dragon.
[Silence]
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: [smiles, getting an idea] Then something crazy. [runs off]
Astrid: [smiles] That's more like it. [follows him]

Stoick: When we crack this mountain open, all hell is gonna break loose.
Gobber: And my undies. Good thing I brought extras!
Stoick: No matter how this ends, it ends today.

[The Red Death emerges from the cave]
Gobber: Beard of Thor! What is that?!
Stoick: Odin help us...

Hiccup: Yeah Ruff Tuff watch your backs. Move Fishlegs.
Stoick: What the (no voice recording when he said this)
Tuffnut: LOOK AT US WE'RE ON A DRAGON, WE'RE ON DRAGONS ALL OF US.
Hiccup: Up, let's move it.
Gobbler: Every bit the boar-headed stubborn Viking you ever were.
Hiccup: Fishlegs break it down.
Fishlegs: Okay, heavily armoured skull and tail made for bashing and crushing, steer clear of both, small eyes, large nostrils, relies on hearing and smell.
Hiccup: Okay, left, legs, hang in his 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. [makes noise]
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! WHOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Tuffnut: Troll!
Ruffnut: Butt-elf!
Tuffnut: Bride of Grendel!

[After Stoick rescues Hiccup and Toothless from drowning, Toothless motions to Hiccup]
Hiccup: You got it, bud. [mounts Toothless]
Stoick: Hiccup! [grabs Hiccup's hand; Hiccup turns] 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: [takes his hand] I'm proud to call you my son.
Hiccup: Thanks, Dad.
[Hiccup and Toothless fly into the sky]
Astrid: [sees Hiccup] He's up! Get Snotlout out of there!
Twins: I'm on it!
Tuffnut: [arguing] I'm on it first! I'm ahead of you!
Ruffnut: [arguing] Hey! let me drive!
Tuffnut: [arguing] No, this way, don't push me
Ruffnut: [arguing] Stop it, I'll take your teeth out
[Snotlout hops onto Ruffnut and Tuffnut's dragon]
Tuffnut: Aw, I can't believe that worked!
[Red Death pulls Astrid's dragon using his vacuum ability]
Gobber: NIGHT FURY! Get down! [Red Death pushes Astrid off her dragon and she falls, screaming, until Toothless saves her]
Hiccup: Did you get her? [Toothless looks upside down to see if he saved Astrid. Then he safely puts her down]
Astrid: Go.
Hiccup: That thing has wings! Okay, let's see if it can use them!
[Toothless strikes Red Death really hard, Red Death screams and falls over]
[Red Death spreads his wings]
Hiccup: You think that did it?
[Red Death roars]
Hiccup: Well he can fly.
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOO! Yeah! GO HICCUP!
Hiccup: Okay Toothless, time to disappear! Come on, bud!
[Red Death follows Toothless and Hiccup, while he/she/it chomps constantly before releasing fire]
Hiccup: Here it comes!
[Red Death releasing fire]
[Red Death keeps chasing Toothless and Hiccup up the clouds]
[Red Death chomps and loses Toothless and Hiccup out of his sight]
[Toothless shoots plasma blasts at the Red Death]
[Red Death gets mad and releases fire]
Hiccup: Watch out!
[Toothless' prosthetic tail catches fire]
Hiccup: Okay, times up! Let's see if this works. COME ON! IS THAT THE BEST YOU CAN DO?!
[Toothless roars]
[Red Death chomps again]
[Red Death roars loudly]
Hiccup: Stay with me, buddy. We're good. Just a little bit longer.
[Red Death gets mad]
Hiccup: Hold Toothless...
[Red Death gets ready to release fire]
Hiccup: NOW!
[Toothless shoots a plasma blast down Red Death's throat]
[Red Death spreads his wings but they rip apart quickly]
Red Death: (Roaring)
[Red Death accepts his end, slams into the ground and explodes]
Hiccup: [runs into Red Death's clubbed tail] No! NO! [collides with Red Death's clubbed tail and falls off]
Stoick: Hiccup! HICCUP?! SON! [sees Toothless but with Hiccup nowhere to be found] Hiccup. [kneeling beside Toothless] Oh, son... I did this. [Toothless stirs and opens his eyes, looking at Stoick] [close to tears] I'm s... I'm so sorry. [Toothless lifts his wings, revealing Hiccup clutched in his paws] Hiccup! [picks him up, puts an ear to his chest and laughs with relief] Oh, he's alive! You brought him back alive! [the Vikings cheer and Stoick puts a hand on Toothless's head] Thank you for saving my son.
Gobber: [comes over; grimacing] Well... you know, most of him.
[Hiccup is later seen to have lost his foot during the battle]

Hiccup: [seeing the newly reformed Berk] I knew it... I'm dead.
Stoick: [chuckling] No, but you gave it your best shot. So, what do you think?
Viking: Look, it's Hiccup!
[The Vikings gather around Stoick and Hiccup]
Stoick: Turns out all we needed was a little more of... [points to Hiccup] this.
Hiccup: [surprised] You just gestured to all of me.
[Stoick smiles and nods]
Gobber: Well, most of you. [gestures to Hiccup's peg leg] That bit's my handiwork. With a little Hiccup flair thrown in! You think it'll do?
Hiccup: [looks at it; jokes] I might make a few tweaks.
[The Vikings laugh. Astrid comes up behind Hiccup and punches him in the arm]
Astrid: That's for scaring me!
Hiccup: [shocked] Wha-what?! What, is it always gonna be this way? 'Cause-- [Astrid cuts him off by kissing him on the lips. Hiccup's expression changes to one of pleasant surprise.] I could get used to it.
[Astrid smiles.]

Featurettes

[edit]
Gobber: Welcome to Dragon Training! Astrid, you're up. Lesson One: the Deadly Nadder! Fast, dangerous, but if you can stay in its blind spot, you will be safe. Once he sees you - not so much.
Astrid: AAAAHHH!
Gobber: Heh-heh-heh...

Gobber: Fishlegs, you're on. Lesson Two: the Gronckle. Lazy, cranky, with a devastating fire attack. But it cannot produce fire if its head is wet. [Fishlegs dumps a bucket of water on one end of Meatlug - which raises her head on the other end] When wetting the Gronckle, be sure to douse the correct end.
Fishlegs: AAAAHHH!
Gobber: Better luck next time!

Gobber: Lesson Three: the Monstrous Nightmare. Most aggressive and powerful of the dragons. Snotlout, into the ring. If you clamp its mouth shut, it cannot open its jaws. [Snotlout clamps Hookfang's mouth shut and laughs. Hookfang slowly raises his head, lifting Snotlout into the air] The rest of the dragon, however, is free to do whatever it wants.
[Hookfang smiles and proceeds to stamp Snotlout into the ground.]
Snotlout: AAAAHHH!

Gobber: Ruffnut, Tuffnut, you're up. Lesson Four: the Hideous Zippleback. [Ruffnut and Tuffnut run in a circle around Barf and Belch, yelling and banging their shields.] Sly, surprising, but certain noises can confuse it. [Ruffnut and Tuffnut collide and start arguing and shoving each other. Barf and Belch notices them, and each head snaps up one of the twins] Other noises, however, just make it angry. Ha ha ha... [Hanging from Barf and Belch's jaws, the twins continue arguing and throwing punches and kicks at each other.]

Gobber: Hiccup, you're on, lad. Lesson Five: know your dragon's shot limit. The Night Fury has enough fuel for three blasts. [Three shots. Hiccup laughs, puts down his shield, and is blasted again] Uh, four. [another shot] Definitely five.
Hiccup: AAAAHHH!
Gobber: You wait here, I'll go and get my notes.

Gobber: The Terrible Terror. Smallest of the dragons, but no less ferocious. You know it's about to breathe fire when you hear a little hissing sound. [hissing sound is heard] Just like that! Just before it... [hears another hissing sound; looks over his shoulder] ...before it... [Terrible Terror appears on his other shoulder. The screen goes black] AHHHHHHHHHH-OW! Oh, that really burns.
