Episode 4: Snotlout's Angels

Heather: No. I had no idea.

Atali: It's true. And it was then that our Wingmaiden tribe was charged with a divine mission. A mission given to us by Freya herself, and one we fulfill with great honor to this day.

Bodil: There's something about them. Are they-

Atali: Blind? Yes. All Razorwhips are born blind. They are helpless and the mothers cannot protect them against male Razorwhips.

Ruffnut: Been there.

Astrid: When?

Ruffnut: Uh. Just sounded like the right response.

Atali: Adult male Razorwhips will feed on the babies unless someone is there to stop them.

Heather: And that's where you come in.

Atali: Exactly. We have a mutual understanding with the mothers that the hatchlings will stay with us until they are able to stand and are strong enough to fly. Then they fly on our backs until they are old enough to defend themselves. It is only then that they are released back to their mothers and then into the wild.

Heather: So, what you're telling me is that-

Atali: Your dragon was once a part of our family. She was raised by us until she was strong enough to go on her own.

Heather: Windshear was so little when I found her, but she bonded with me right away.

Atali: Well, the first contact with another living being creates a lifelong bond. One that shall never be broken. You are a very lucky woman, Heather.

Heather: I am.

Ruffnut: And here we thought you were these crazy babes who flew with dragons and ate stew made out of fat, annoying guys.

Astrid: That is not what we thought.

Atali: It's all right. What we are-

Minden: The man has escaped. Someone set him free.

Bodil: Sorry. We didn't know. He's meeting our friends at the base of the north mountains.

Atali: That's unfortunate.

Heather: Why? Why is that unfortunate?

Atali: Because those are the nesting grounds of the Razorwhips. And if the females sense any sort of male presence there, they will attack. To kill. He'll have no chance.

Bodil: I sent him right into that. Aww crap, I just sent Snotlout to his death.

Snotlout: There it is. I think I'm gonna make it. I'm gonna actually live. Where did you come from? Hey, uh, I actually know your cousin Windshear. We get along great. Oh, come on. Are they serious? Save your breath, ladies. The dragons are gonna kill me before you ever even get here. Hmm. Ugh. This is all my fault. All I had to do was be nice to Astrid. That's all I had to do. But, no. Snotlout had to go and open his big fat yap. Hah! You gotta get up way earlier than that to- Like this guy. Early riser. Great. Okay. Gotta go. Snotlout!

Hiccup: Bo. Are we okay here? Or-

Bodil: We're fine, which is more than I can say for-

Hiccup: Let me guess. Snotlout.

Atali: Unfortunately, your friend has found himself in a Razorwhip nesting area.

Tuffnut: I think old Snotty is a ways away from "finding himself". And does anybody really ever "find themselves"? Isn't knowing who you are a journey that never ends with a beginning that never starts?

Bodil: Tuff not now.

Fishlegs: What's he doing there? Doesn't he know how female Razorwhips respond to male presence while they're nesting?

Tuffnut: He does now. Oops, sorry. I'm sure he's fine.

Hiccup: All right, the way I see it, the only shot he has is for us, and when I say "us", I mean Fishlegs, Tuff, and I to ride over the forest and distract all the female Razorwhips.

Astrid: Then, we can go in and rescue Snotlout's boneheaded butt while they're still distracted.

Tuffnut: What's going on? I don't think this was the plan!

Hiccup: Here they come. They're just trying to protect their eggs, so we don't need to fire on them.

Fishlegs: Evasive maneuvers. Gotcha!

Heather: There's acres of forest down there. Uh, how are we gonna find him?

Bodil: Just listen for the high-pitched screams. That'll be him.

Snotlout: I can't believe I'm gonna die in a tree stump. Why can't I have a heroic death? Is that too much to ask for? Is it?

Heather: Like that?

Ruffnut: Exactly like that.

Snotlout: I take it back, Odin. I don't want to be heroic. And why do you only listen to me when I say stupid stuff? Bo. How did you find me?

Bodil: Your scream is unmistakable. Look out!

Snotlout: Uh, Bo.

Bodil: Yes, Snotlout?

Snotlout: Can you, I don't know, hurry?! Uh Bo.

Bodil: I see them.

Snotlout: Let go of me! I am not a piece of meat. Argh!

Hiccup: Whoa! Man, they really don't like us.

Snotlout: Bo. Oh, no. No! No!

Tuffnut: Hey, bro. You know, I gotta say, this is one cool dragon. Did you know he can fly so fast it almost rips your face off?

Snotlout: Yes. I knew that, Tuff.

Tuffnut: Oh, okay. And, Snotlout, you mind holding on to something else? I just don't want the Wingmaidens to think I'm taken.

Bodil: Something you'd like to say?

Snotlout: Bodil, I learned my lesson this time. I swear. No more disrespect. No more cleaning Hookie's body parts with your favorite spear. I'm just, well, sometimes I can be a bit of a muttonhead.

Bodil: But, you're our muttonhead.

Snotlout: Yeah. I guess I am.

Atali: A toast and greetings to our new friends from Dragon's Edge. You have taught us a lesson in tolerance and acceptance. You will always be welcome here on the Island of Wingmaidens. Every one of you. And to the conclusion of the nesting season. Now that it is over, there is much work to be done, but no other task brings us such joy.
