Recap / Dragons The Nine Realms S 5 E 4 Scent Of A Dragon

Go To

After a fight between Jun and Eugene due to the different treatments they receive from their mom, the Riders try to stop Buzzsaw from capturing a Snifflehide, a dragon that relies on its sense of smell. But the Snifflehide kidnaps Eugene as his cologne makes him smell like one of her younglings and takes him to her nest. The Riders eventually manage to wash off the cologne and spray Buzzsaw with it who tries to steal an egg. As the Snifflehide chases Buzzsaw away, Eugene reveals to Jun that their mom treats them differently because she sees her as more capable and vows to become more self-sufficient. Meanwhile, Olivia struggles to keep the secret from a suspicious Sledkin.


Tropes in this episode include:

  • Brilliant, but Lazy: Eugene figures out why their mother treats them differently.
  • The Nose Knows: The Snifflehide heavily relies on its sense of smell to identify the world around it.
  • "Not So Different" Remark: Euguene lays this to Jun when he comments on how their mother treats them. While she is focused on business, Jun is focused on mythology.
  • Shared Family Quirks: When Olivia lies to Sledkin about her secret, she acts exactly like Tom when he lies.
