My Chieftess... ✨Scripted✨ version

Episode 5: Buffalord Soldier

Tuffnut: Well, that's a long time coming.

Snotlout: Very funny. I already feel short of breath.

Ruffnut: (declares) We must burn our clothes!

Tuffnut: No, no, no, no. No need to panic. I've got the answer for it. Wait for it. Bing. Oh yeah. (draws out a slice of mouldy bread)

Ruffnut: Mouldy bread? Like that's gonna cure the scourge.

Tuffnut: That it will, sis. Once I had a really bad cold. So, I decided to eat some mouldy bread. Don't ask me why, because I don't know. But, boom! Instantly cured. Okay, you scoff now, but one day, science will recognize my genius. They called old crazy Uncle Henrik "crazy."

Ruffnut: He is crazy, Tuffnut. He married his own beard.

Tuffnut: Mm-hm. Okay. Yes. Bad example. Let's go with your clothes burning plan. We'll keep them on you, just to be sure. Barf! Belch!

Hiccup: Let's not jump to conclusions and set ourselves on fire, eat mouldy bread or hyperventilate.

(They turn to look at Snotlout, who is hyperventilating into his boot)

Astrid: Snotlout, you can't catch the Scourge of Odin by breathing.

Snotlout: I knew that. (Throws the boot behind him)

Hiccup: There hasn't been a single case of the Scourge for centuries. Plus, Bo got out of there right away. (Bodil looks miserable.) Are you sure you're okay?

Bodil: Yeah. I'm fine. Really. (Puts a hand over her scratch to hide it)

(The scene fades to very early morning. It is still dark. Hiccup is asleep in his hut when he awakes on hearing a loud crash. He comes outside to see Aquantis, agitated and running up and down outside his hut.)

Hiccup: What? What? What? Aquantis? (Realises) Bodil.

(Scene switches to Bodil's hut. Hiccup enters the hut, and sees Bodil lying on her bed, with the blankets off, coughing weakly.)

Bodil: (weakly) Hiccup? What are you doing here?

Hiccup: Aquantis seemed a little worried, so I...

[Scene cuts with Fishlegs, Astrid, and Hiccup waiting for Snotlout]

Bodil: (groans) H, keep pacing, and I will take off your leg.

(Fishlegs comes up to Hiccup, looking worried)

Hiccup: What is it?

Fishlegs: You saw that scratch right?

Astrid: She said it's nothing.

Fishlegs: You know Bo. It's not nothing. All the signs are there.

Hiccup: All right, let's assume for a second that you're right. What's the cure?

Fishlegs: I'm not sure. The only thing I know is that the scourge moves swiftly, overtaking its victims in less than three moons.

Astrid: One moon has already passed.

Fishlegs: Snotlout is on his way back from Berk with Gothi's notes. Hopefully, they'll tell us something more.

(Sbotlout enters, looking worried)

Snotlout: Hey Bo, how are you feeling?

Bodil: I feel fine. I just wish everyone would stop worrying.

Hiccup: Fishlegs, look! In Gothi's notes there's a cure for the Scourge of Odin. A green solution made from the saliva of a Buffalord dragon. What? What is it?
