Dragons: Riders of Berk (2012–2014): Season 2, Episode 10 - A View to a Skrill: Part 1 - full transcript

When the dragon riders discover a frozen Skrill, a lightning-powered dragon revered by the Berserkers, they scramble to get it off Berk. But when the Skrill is thawed and unleashed, Hiccup and Toothless are faced with a battle between both the Skrill and Dagur's Berserker armada.

- Let's go, bud.
[toothless roars]

[heroic music]

?

- Yeah.
- Wow.

- Cool.
- Wow.

- Wow, nice.
- He's pretty good.

- We're getting
pretty far north.

- Bucket and mulch
are two days overdue.

We need to keep searching.

- You don't really think
they're up here, do you?

- You can't take the cold,
huh, astrid?



- No, I just don't have
a heated seat like you do.

- That's right.
You don't.

[chuckles]
ah, toasty.

[distant shouting]
- looks like they're in trouble.

Come on, bud.

- Berserkers, commandeer
this vessel

For dagur the deranged.

- Slimy, stinky eel,

Meet slimy, stinky marauder.
Splash!

[men grunting]

Splash!
[shouting]

- Take that, you--

- Surrender or--
[exclaims]

- Nice shooting, astrid.
Snotlout, light 'em up.



- [whoops]

- Okay, bud.
It's our turn.

[all shouting]

- Retreat.
Retreat.

- What happened here?

- Well, we thought
the berserkers

Had hit an iceberg,

And so we came into help.

They attacked us.

Because we saw it.

Both: It?

- It.

- That looks like a...

Dragon.

- Why would berserkers

Be trying to dig it out?

- No idea.

But I'm going to find out.
- Oh, great.

Now we have to dig it out?

- Actually, I have
a much better idea.

- I say we smash it.

- I say we blast it.

- I say we blast it,
then smash it.

Both: Then blast it again.
- Stop saying

What I'm saying now!

- Yeah, that's certainly
one approach.

- [chuckles,
then clears throat]

Good sir, I believe
it is actually three approaches,

My fine fellow.

- Let's just get a better look
at this thing.

Fishlegs, give me
a slow burn.

- With pleasure.

Meatlug.
[whistles]

Lava blast.

- Nice, fishlegs.

- Oh, man.

- Is that what I think it is?

- I think so,
but I've only seen pictures.

- Do you realize how huge
this could be, fishlegs?

- The word "epic"
comes to mind.

- I hate it
when they get like this.

- Don't you just?

- I should check
the book of dragons

To be sure about this.
- Yeah. Good idea.

If we're right,
this could be big trouble.

- If someone doesn't start
filling me in,

I'm getting my axe.

- [chuckles]

- [laughs]
- no one touches that ice

While we're gone.

[overlapping shouting]

- All right.
Calm down.

- This is an act of war.

- Don't jump to conclusions

About what this attack means.

- I don't know, stoick.

Seems pretty cut and dried
to me.

I mean,
if you think about it,

An attack is an attack.
Am I right, people?

[overlapping shouting]

- And thank you, gobber.

- Always here to help.

- I think I know why dagur's men
attacked bucket and mulch.

- Go on, son.
- We got a better look

At the dragon bucket and mulch
found in the ice.

- We found a dragon?
Oh, can we keep it?

I've always wanted
my own dragon, mulch.

- Uh, it's a skrill.

- Oh. I don't want
one of those.

Ow!

- Are you sure
about this, son?

- Oh, we are sure.

[laughs]

Whoo!

Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, fishlegs.

[giggles]

[chuckles]

Sorry, chief,
that happens sometimes

When we discover
a new dragon.

I get a little--
- look, it's right here.

That is definitely a skrill.

- And the skrill
is the symbol of...

- My brothers,
this is an historic day

For the berserker tribe.

After many years
and many searches,

Captain vorg has found
a skrill.

[cheers]

It is such a great occasion,

I'm willing to forgive
his failure

To bring it to me.
[thud]

Get up.

For centuries
the skrill has represented

Our strength,
our power,

Our ferocity.

As long as hiccup
and his little dragon club

Have our dragon,
we will not rest.

We will take the skrill
out of his frail, little hands

And destroy that night fury
together!

[cheers]

- Legend has it
the lightning comes

From the skrill's mouth

And thunder from its--
well, you know.

- Remind me never
to get behind one.

- That's actually inaccurate.

According to the book
of dragons,

The skrill drew lightning
from the clouds

And then redirected it.

- It could use that lightning

To hit several targets
at once,

Which is why it was
such a feared dragon.

- It could also store
the lightning in its body

And use it later.

- I've heard enough.

We need to get rid
of that skrill.

It's just the excuse
dagur needs

To go to war.

- You all know
I love a good fight

As much as the next person,

But why not just give it
to them?

It's just a frozen dragon
carcass after all.

- Actually, because of their
internal body temperature,

Skrills can stay safely frozen
for decades.

- So let me be clear.

This dragon may still be alive,

And you left ruffnut,
tuffnut, and snotlout

To guard it?

- Okay, that sounds much worse
when you say it.

But it's frozen solid
in a block of ice.

How much damage
could it possibly do?

[explosion]

- [growls]

- It's not that bad.

- Yeah, maybe hiccup
won't even notice.

- No, he's definitely
gonna notice.

- [roars]

- Definitely.

- [roars]

[exclamations]

- I got a plan.
- Great.

What is it?
- Blame snotlout.

- [groans]

- Their fault.

- Hey.
He stole our plan.

- I told you guys
to leave it alone.

- It jumped us.

Sneaky dragon.

- From inside a block of ice?

- Uh...
Very sneaky dragon.

- Okay.

- [groans]
- what is it, dad?

- When I was a lad,
my father's father

Used to sit me on his knee
and tell me stories.

I thought they were just tales.

- Tales about what?

- Berserker fleets attacking
behind harnessed dragons

That brought down lightning
from the sky

And destroyed everything
in their path.

- You don't think the berserkers
could actually control

A skrill?

- I didn't think anyone
could ride a night fury.

We just can't take the chance.

If the berserkers find
that skrill

And know some way
to control it--

- We'll find it, dad.

I promise.

[lightning strikes]

- Any idea what we do
after we find it?

- We catch it,
we tame it,

We train it,
keep it away from dagur

So he doesn't use it
against us.

- Oh, yeah.
That sounds easy enough.

- Actually, the skrill
does have some weaknesses.

According to the book
of dragons,

It can't redirect any lightning
if it's in the water.

- That's a start.

- No, a start
would be having

Any clue
where this stupid thing is.

We've been circling the island
for hours,

And I'm starving.

- Snotlout, you just said

Something
unintentionally brilliant.

- Of course I did.

What was it again?

- When you wake up
in the morning,

What's the very first thing
you want to do?

- Well, usually I have to--

- No, after that.

- Oh. Eat.

- Exactly.

Fishlegs, what is
the skrill's food of choice?

- [cackles]

[sheep baas]

[clanking]

- And then you fought off
the skrill

With your head?

- Hey.

This guy silent sven?

Remind me not to rustle
any more sheep from his farm.

[chuckles]

- Uh, he's silent,
not deaf.

- [grunts]
- any idea which way

The skrill went?

[lightning strikes]

- That way?
[sheep bleating]

- Shh, it's okay, baby.

Nothing's out here.
Nothing's gonna get you.

[lightning crashes]
- hold up, everybody.

- Okay, now what?

- Everybody stay back.

If the skrill
sees just one dragon,

Maybe it won't attack.

[all gasp]

There, there, fella.

You've been asleep
a long time, huh?

I'm guessing
you're pretty cranky

And hungry too.

- [roars]

- Hiccup!

- Astrid!
[shouts]

- [shouts]
- aah! Meatlug, drop!

[screams]

- [roaring]

- [screaming]

And stop.

Wow, that was impressive.

- Sure, if by impressive
you mean terrifying.

- Follow me.
I've got an idea.

I'm gonna dive through the cloud
from above

And drive that skrill
down to you guys

So we can all drive it
into the water.

- Got it.

No, I don't.
Sorry.

Could we go back to the first
part about how you're

In the cloud,
or is the cloud in you?

It's all--it's sort of nebulous
for me.

Like a cloud in fact!

- Just do
what everyone else does.

- And how exactly are we
gonna find the skrill

In that cloud?

- Toothless doesn't need to see

To find something,
remember?

- Does that work
in clouds?

- There's only one way
to find out.

Toothless, now!

- It's working!

- Time to give this dragon
a bath.

- I'll bet he hates it
as much as we do.

[exclamations]

- We're under attack!

[arrows slicing through the air]
- [gasps]

- Whoa!

- [roars]

- Oh, no.
Hookfang!

[babbles]

- Uh, is that...

- Surprise, surprise, hiccup!

[chuckles]

Now get your dainty little hands

Off my skrill.

- Let's get out of range
before they reload.

- Already ahead of you.

- Let's go, bud.

- [laughs]
they're running.

- They're regrouping,
you idiot.

That's it.
You're relieved of duty.

- [yelps]
splash!

- My skrill is glorious.

The legend doesn't do it
justice.

A dragon that can go
head to head

With hiccup and his night fury.

And they will both be mine.

- Hey, snotlout,
are you okay?

- Ha, he's better
than okay.

Did you see that lightning bolt
to the head?

- [blathers]

- Tuffnut's right.
Better than okay.

- [blathers]

- And making more sense
than usual.

- Okay, he's out of it,

So the rest of us will--
- [blathers]

- Snotlout, we have no idea
what you're saying.

- Sure we do.
He said, "I'm perfectly fine."

- [blathers]
- said it again.

I told 'em.
What?

I speak
post-lightning snotlout.

- How many times has this kid
been hit by lightning?

- Often enough.
- [blathers]

- 12--oh, really?
12 times.

- [blathers]

- He said, "enough talk.

"dagur's all mine.

And tuffnut is the toughest
of us all."

- [blathers]

- He implied the last part.

- [groans]

Well, you heard
the man, astrid.

Take snotlout and fishlegs
and try to keep

The berserker ships occupied.

The twins and I will go
after the skrill.

If dagur gets his hands
on it first,

We won't stand a chance.
- Be careful.

The lightning is attracted
to metal,

And you two are wearing

A lot more of it
than the rest of us.

Stormfly, let's rock some boats.

[men shouting]

- [blathers]

[laughs]

- Oh, hello.

- [screams]

- Stay on target.

He's tricky,
that hiccup.

- Okay, I think I have a way to
get the skrill into the water,

But it's super risky.

- You, my friend, are speaking
our language.

- Basically you're gonna fly
blind through the cloud

And have barf let out
as much gas as possible.

Don't let belch ignite it
until you get to the other side.

- Feel my heart,
because it comes forth

And is bursting
through my chest.

- Hopefully the blast will drive
the skrill out of the cloud

Toward toothless and I,

Where we can knock it down

With a plasma blast.

- That's a lot of gas.

You have any idea
how big a blast

That will be?
- No.

- Me neither!

How awesome is this?

[twins whooping]

[lightning strikes]

- That's it.
Let loose.

- Not you, belch.
Not yet.

Wait for it.
Wait for it.

Go!

Both: Yeah!

- He's flying back up!

Okay, bud, not too much.

Just enough to bring him down.

Okay, that's a new one.

Let's see how he handles this.

This is bad.

This is worse.

- [blathers]

- [groaning and grunting]

Sir, look.

- Well, well,
it doesn't look

Like hiccup will catch
my skrill either.

- Then perhaps
we should withdraw,

Come back for the skrill
another day.

- Um, didn't I throw you
overboard?

- Well, I am
an excellent swimmer.

[screams]

Splash!
- Press on.

- Oh, that one made
my hair stand up.

We need a plan
and fast.

- Yoo-hoo!
Remember us?

Gas me, ruff.

- With pleasure.

Oh...

[both shout]

- Maybe we should take off
our metal helmets?

- Or maybe we should grab
all the metal we can!

Both: Yeah!

[all shouting]

- Hiccup.

- Sorry about your deck.

- [yells]

Splash!

- Did anybody see
where the skrill went?

- No.

- No.
- [blathers]

- Anyone see
where the twins ended up?

[both groan]

- Oh, great.

We do all the work,
and the berserkers

Get the skrill anyway.

- And that is why we don't work.

It accomplishes nothing.

- Yeah.

Wait a minute.
That's not the berserkers.

That's alvin the treacherous.

- [chuckles]

- Why would alvin want a skrill?

- Why wouldn't he?
Did you see that thing?

He could take out berk with it.

- Oh, yeah. So we should do
something, right?

- Yes, yes, we should.

Okay, I say we follow him.

- Okay.
And then what?

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Let's not get
ahead of ourselves, okay?

- Yeah.
Good point.

- Let's get the beast
back to outcast island.

I have big plans
for this dragon.
