Episode 13: Traitors and Cheats

Start from the beginning
                                        

Bodil: But if you win?

Viggo: If I win, he dies.

Bodil: Let me talk to him...

Viggo: Be my guest.

Torsten: Bo I am so so sorry! You have to believe me!

Bodil: Torsten now's not the time. Listen to me, look at me like I'm chewing you out. I have a plan, but you have to trust me.

Torsten: Ok I trust you.

Bodil: Ok just remember the key is in my saddle bag. Torsten just A and H got it? Before I accept, I have some terms of my own.

Viggo: It's only fair.

Bodil: Torsten and Aquantis get to go back to the edge...

Viggo: To go back for help I don't think so.

Bodil: You can pick the message Torsten gives to Hiccup yourself, but it's just insurance that you'll keep your word. If you win I will hand deliver Torsten to you myself.

Viggo: Deal.

Bodil: Not quite... Right here right and now swear that you will not tell anyone, that Torsten's your brother. If I win and you tell someone. Stoick and Hiccup will kill him anyway so I won't get my prize. Give me your word this stays between us.

Viggo: You have my word. The message I want you to tell Hiccup is that Bodil has changed her mind about your betrothal and couldn't tell him to his face so she sent you in her place.

Torsten: He'd never believe that.

Viggo: Then make him believe it! And if you say anything that could tip him off... or write anything. If you do the deal's off. (Torsten looks at Bodil for confirmation and she gives him a nod of encouragement. Torsten and Aquantis fly off.) Now pick your piece.

Bodil: I'll be the chief of the Marauders.

Viggo: Not the Viking Chief? How intriguing.... Game on.

[Back at the edge]

Ruff: Should we be worried?

Tuff: No no thank you I'm not so fond of that particular feeling...

Snotlout: It's morning and she's still not back yet.

Fishlegs: Yeah Hiccup maybe we should go after her.

Hiccup: You're right. You guys are all right, let's saddle up.

Ruffnut: Not necessary!

Hiccup: Care to explain why Ruff?

Ruffnut: There she is right there. That is Aquantis right?

Astrid: Oh thank Thor. (The riders run down to meet her.) Where have you been? We've been waiting— Torsten?

Hiccup: Tor— Torsten what are you doing here? Riding Aquantis?

Torsten: B sent me. She had a change of heart. She accepted my betrothal.

The Riders: What?

Tuffnut: Torcanto! Congratulations! Now you're going to need someone to plan the wedding.

Ruff: Yes Tuff and I will offer you our services.

Snotlout: But wait, how, when, why?

Hiccup: Where is she?

Torsten: She's back at my hut preparing.

Astrid: Why didn't she tell us herself?

Torsten: She said she couldn't...
