Dialogue
edit- Hiccup: [opening lines; narating] This is Berk. Boasting the kind of balmy, fun-in-the-sun climate that will give you frostbite on your spleen. The one upside is our annual holiday. We call it... Snoggletog. Why we chose such a stupid name remains a mystery. But with the war long over, and dragons living among us, this year's Snoggletog promises to be one to remember.
- [Toothless wakes Hiccup up by making noises on the roof]
- Hiccup: Okay, okay. I'm coming. [Hiccup go outside the house and find Toothless on the roof] Oh, good morning, Mr. Bossy! [Toothless laughs at him, he imitates Toothless's laugh] You always have to wake me up so early to go flying... [Hiccup almost slips on the ice. Luckily, Toothless catches him] Stupid leg. [to Toothless] No thanks, buddy, I'm okay. Yeah, we can go flying now. [Toothless burps at Hiccup] Eww, eww, what? Ew! oh, Toothless!
- Astrid: Yaknog! Get your Yaknog! C'mon! Get a frothy delicious cup of cheer. [Approaches to her friends] Hey you guys. Try this tasty new beverage i made for the holidays.
- Tuffnut: Eh, what's that smell? It's that you? [Pushes Ruffnut's face]
- Astrid: It's Yaknog! [Pours the Yaknog into the cup]
- Tuffnut: [coughs, disgusted] If i drink that I'm gonna Yaknog all over the place.
- Astrid: Maybe you'd rather taste a punch in the face?
- [Ruffnut sniffs at the Yak Nog, disgusted]
- Snotlout: Astrid, it sounds delightful! I'd love a mug. [He forces to swallow it because it tastes really bad] You could really taste the Yak.
- Fishlegs: Mmm, yum! What is that?
- Astrid: Oh, you wanna try some? It's my new traditional drink.
- [Snotlout appears in the background, shaking his head, which means "Don't!"]
- Fishlegs: Oh, you know, um, i have suddenly in-uh inexplicably change, my mind.
- Astrid: Well, you don't know what you're missing. I bet Hiccup will love this.
- Ruffnut: [to Snotlout] Are you crying?
- Astrid: Hiccup?
- Hiccup: Yeah i'm over here Astrid, come in.
- Astrid: There! Happy Holidays, from me to you. [offered the Yaknog to Hiccup]
- Hiccup: Thank you, milady.
- Astrid: What are you up to?
- Hiccup: Okay, you're gonna think i'm crazy but, i just couldn't stop thinking about what Tuffnut said last night. Toothless can't come and go like the other dragons and that's just not fair. I was up all night, and i think i find a way to fix that. [Hiccup drinks the Yaknog that Astrid made. And hold it in his mouth because it doesn't taste good]
- Astrid: No way! You build him a new tail? So he's gonna be able to fly without you.
- Hiccup: Mh-hm!
- Astrid: Wow, what a great gift!
- Hiccup: Hmhm...
- Astrid: What if he never comes back?
- Hiccup: Mh...
- Astrid: What am i saying! Of course he will.
- Hiccup: Mhm!
- Astrid: Well, i'm gonna spread some holiday cheer. YOU'RE AMAZING!
- Hiccup: [spewing the Yaknog out of his mouth, disgusted] Blaaaaagghhhhh!
- [After Meatlug, Fishlegs' Gronckle, disappears with Hiccup in tow]
- Fishlegs: I can't believe him!
- Astrid: [incredulous] You can't believe him?! YOU KIDNAPPED YOUR DRAGON!
- Fishlegs: That makes it sound so mean.
- [Tuffnut and Ruffnut notice something in Meatlug's nest]
- Tuffnut: [shocked] Hey, guys?
- Astrid: [not paying attention, to Fishlegs] He flew away the second he was unleashed!
- Fishlegs: I'm 72% sure he wanted to stay--
- Tuffnut: [irritated] GUYS!
- [The others finally see what's in the nest]
- Fishlegs: Whoa! Meatlug barfed up a pile of rocks!
- Ruffnut: You're such an idiot. Those aren't rocks, your dragon laid eggs!
- Astrid: Wait a minute... I bet that's why the dragons left: to lay their eggs!
- Fishlegs: [confused] But... boy dragons don't lay eggs.
- Ruffnut: Yeah, your boy dragon... is a girl dragon.
- Fishlegs: [surprised] Okay, that... actually explains a few things...
- Astrid: Hey! Everyone's missing their dragons, right?
- Snotlout: Oh, here it comes...
- Astrid: I've got an idea! [ties a ribbon around one of the eggs] It'll be another new Snoggletog tradition!
- Hiccup: [after seeing a Gronckle egg explode as it hatches] Man, it's a good thing those don't hatch on Berk.
- [After the teens plant a Gronkle egg in each Viking's house]
- Astrid: Wasn't this a great idea?
- Fishlegs: Uh-huh! Everybody's gonna be so surprised! [a house explodes and an egg fragment flies out and hits Fishlegs] Ow!
- Snotlout: Surprise!
- [A baby Gronkle lands on Fishlegs' chest]
- Snotlout, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut: Awww!
- Astrid: [horrified] The eggs... explode? [a Viking house explodes] THE EGGS EXPLODE! [Another Viking house explodes. A villager comes running out] I'm sorry! [More explosions. Another villager runs past her] Sorry!
- Stoick: [seeing the tree on fire] What in Thor's name is going on?!
- Astrid: [worried] The eggs explode. [the last Viking house across Astrid explodes. Astrid smiles nervously]
- Stoick: [after Hiccup returns with the dragons and their babies] Everyone! Grab your dragons! To the Great Hall! We finally have something to celebrate!
- Astrid: Hiccup, I know this must be really hard for you seeing everyone with their dragons. But you really did a wonderful thing. Thank you. [kisses Hiccup then hugs him tightly]
- Hiccup: Astrid, where did Toothless go?
- Astrid: I don't know.
- [Toothless is sneaking into the Great Hall. Astrid and the other Vikings noticed him but not Hiccup]
- Female Viking: Oh, look!
- Astrid: Wow, man! Wouldn't wanna be you right now. I mean, you brought back everyone's dragon, except yours!
- Hiccup: Yeah, you know this is not helping, at all. [Astrid turns Hiccup around to make him see Toothless behind him] TOOTHLESS! Hey bud! [hugs Toothless]
- Gobber: Stoick. [points at Hiccup]
- Hiccup: Bad dragon! Very bad dragon! You scared me to death, don't ever stay away that long again! And what is in your mouth?
- [Toothless puts Hiccup's lost helmet to Hiccup's head with his mouth]
- Astrid, Ruffnut, and Snotlout: Ewww!
- Hiccup: [disgusted] Yeah, you found my helmet. What-hey! You found my helmet! That's where you've been? Buddy, thank you. You are amazing. [hugs Toothless again]
- [Vikings are cheering]
- Astrid: HAPPY SNOGGLETOG!
- Hiccup: [last lines; narating] Winter in Berk lasts most of the year. It hangs on with both hands and won't let go. And the only real comforts against the cold are those you keep close to your heart. Turns out, that was the best Snoggletog ever. That year, I gave my best friend a pretty great gift... He gave me a better one!
