Episode 5: A Gruff Separation

Ruffnut: Unless what?

Gruffnut: Well, the rules say the winner earns the right to join the clan. Not that they have to.

Ruffnut: Okay, so what's your point?

Gruffnut: The point is, you could win the Trials and then gift the Thorston name to Tuff.

Ruffnut: I could do that?

Gruffnut: Of course. All of this is just made-up customs and traditions from our - We don't even know why we do this stuff.

Ruffnut: Huh. Okay. I'll do it. When do we start?

(Gruffnut pulls out a wooden container)

Gruffnut: How about now? Challenge one. It's simple, really. Just fill this with Speed Stinger venom.

Ruffnut: Hmm.

(Scene changes to show Tuffnut training Chicken's children, who are cheeping, on an obstacle course)

Tuffnut: 'Course, I would ace the Trials. You know, Ruffnut probably wouldn't complete the first challenge. Hey! Keep your knees up! That's it, little chick-ly. But, Ruff and I agreed we're not gonna do the Trials. So I'm just in training mode.

Gruffnut: I understand. You're a Dragon Rider, an adventurer. You don't need to be tied down by clans or titles or subtitles. You're your own man.

Tuffnut: So true, cousin, so true.

Gruffnut: It's your sister.

(Tuffnut yells out in surprise to Gruffnut changing which side he was speaking from)

Gruffnut (cont.): That's who I feel sorry for.

Tuffnut: Sorry for her? Why?

Gruffnut: Well, I mean, two failed romances. Now no name, no dowry. She'll be alone forever. It's gotta be so hard.

Tuffnut: Yeah, I hadn't thought of that. But I mean, what can I do?

Gruffnut: Here's what I was thinking . . . (pulls out another wooden container for Tuffnut)

(Scene changes to show Hiccup and Gruffnut flying, on top of Toothless, as Hiccup tries to look out for the twins' safety in the Trials)

Gruffnut (cont.): Uh, you know, you didn't have to come with me. I can referee the Trials by myself.

Hiccup: I have no clue how you talked them back into this, but I'm gonna make sure they don't get themselves killed.

Gruffnut: That's - That is so unnecessary. They'll be fine.

Hiccup: So you're telling me there's no way they get hurt?

Gruffnut: If you're looking for a guarantee, then we gotta start talking about what is a guarantee?

Hiccup: Oh, never mind.

(Shows Ruffnut, on a tree limb, stalking a Speed Stinger then she jumps down to grab it but misses)

Ruffnut: Argh!

(The Speed Stinger runs away and Ruffnut chases it through some bushes. When it comes out the other side it is spotted by Tuffnut.)

Tuffnut: Come here. Come here! Argh!

(Tuffnut starts chasing the Speed Stinger as well, Ruffnut comes out of some bushes and dives at it but instead hits Tuffnut, who also dived)

Ruffnut/Tuffnut: What are you doing here?

(Both stands up and dusts off dirt from their upper clothes)
