Throk and Roll

Fishlegs: These Buttercup Poppies will assimilate perfectly into our topiary salute to the current "Changewing Migration". Oops. No, no, you go ahead, girl. I'm right behind you. [Tuffnut growling] Please tell me I'm not leaning on a- [Tuffnut roaring] [screams] Changewing!

Tuffnut: [growling]

Astrid: (sighs) I miss Volt.

Tuffnut: [roar] Huh? [growls] Astrid's impossible to get when she's sulking. But I know who's not.

Hiccup: I never seen Astrid like this, bud. Might be better to not mention the "Slugslinging Hofferson" when she's around. AHH!! (Punches Tuffnut.)

Tuffnut: Oh, I am hurt, I am very much hurt!

Hiccup: What the hell's wrong with you?!

Snotlout: How much trash do you two make in a week?

Ruffnut: Pfft. This is just Tuesday, boyo. The rest is out in the back.

Snotlout: [yelps] Oh, my Thor.

Ruffnut: Come on! Better get a move on. That trash is not going to dispose of itself.

Snotlout: Fine! You're welcome.

Ruffnut: Oh, whoa!

Tuffnut: Ow! Ouch! What are you doing?

Ruffnut: What am I doing? What am I doing?

Tuffnut: You know how much I enjoy my role in the Changewing migration. I do this every year.

Ruffnut: And I hate it every year! It seriously creeps me out when you creep up on me.

Tuffnut: Duh. Isn't that the whole idea?

Ruffnut: You know what? Take that weak sauce somewhere else before you get yourself killed! Oh, here's an idea. Go scare Snotlout! He's an idiot. He'll fall for it.

Tuffnut: Excellent idea. Ah! A-creeping I shall go.

Snotlout: Ugh. Ahh! Come on, Tuffnut, do you really think I'm in the mood for your childish Changewing games? Well, I'm not. Ooh, a roar. Scary. That was actually a pretty good roar. Very specific. Ow, that feels like a real claw. [screams] Do not ask, because I do not want to talk about it. Huh? Do you have any idea what I've been through? This Changewing migration is going to be the death of me.

Fishlegs: Snotlout, if you just leave the Changewings alone, they'll move on in a couple of days and you won't have to worry about them again. We go through this every year.

Snotlout: Wait. So now it's my fault?!

Fishlegs: Yup. (He and Snotlout scream.)

Tuffnut: [Roars] I'm a Changewing! Changewing, out!

Hiccup: What happened?

Snotlout/Fishlegs: Don't ask.

Hiccup: Are we expecting visitors?

Astrid: Hey, Throk. Did we have plans?

Throk: I am on your shores today to fulfill a mission that is most personal and of the utmost importance.

Hiccup: Okay. How can we help?

Throk: You can point me in the direction of the fragrant savior of the woman you two are friends with three years ago.

Astrid: Wonder Woman?

Throk: Exactly. I am here to lift her off her feet.

Hiccup: Awkward.

Astrid: Um, do you mean "sweep her off her feet"?

Throk: No. I will lift her from her feet, put her over my shoulder, and return with her to my island, where she will live out her days as my trustworthy wife.

Hiccup: Ugh.

Astrid: Does she know about this?

Throk: Is that important?

Hiccup: We… never mind.

Astrid: Throk, cover your ears. It's a secret. (Whispers to Hiccup.) Throk has never met the Justice League in person.

Hiccup: (whispers to Astrid.) I know. The only ones he met in person are Team Sonic and the Scooby Gang.

Astrid: (whispers to Hiccup.) And the Shane Gang.

Hiccup: For the love of...

Astrid: Throk, Hiccup and I do marriage a little differently around these parts.

Throk: Say no more. Say no more. Sadly we, too, have gone soft over the years. Losing the club has made the retrieval of the bride much more of a struggle.

Hiccup: I think I'm starting to hate this guy's ways of romance.

Astrid: I don't think Wonder Woman is a Neanderthal romance type of person, Throk. Also, she's not here.

Throk: I felt like such a complete fool.

(Astrid and Hiccup chuckled. Tuffnut is heard crying offscreen.)

Astrid: Son of a half-troll rat eating munge bucket. Hiccup, what did you do?

Hiccup: While you were on Wing Maiden Island, I filled the Boar Pit with Gronckle Iron.

Astrid: I think we should leave now. Throk, the modern woman commands a certain amount of respect. Wonder Woman has a mind of her own. So the whole "stake a claim" speech, not so much.

Throk: But it's so much simpler.

Hiccup: We've found that asking for a lady's hand is much more effective.

Throk: Then her hand would be a symbol of her eternal devotion.

Astrid: That's it.

Throk: Would she then wear a hook or a claw?

Hiccup: At least the Twins don't know that we left.
