* DefeatMeansFriendship: Stoick operates on this principle, as shown when he recreates for Hiccup how the chief of Berk and Gobber became friends.

to:

* ContinuitySnarl: Apparently when Hiccup asks Stoick how he and Gobber met, Stoick answers that it was after Gobber had said something disrespectful to his wife and Stoick fought him. However, in both the first and second films, it’s stated that Gobber and Stoick knew each other at least since they were teenagers. WordOfGod also states that the two had known each other their entire lives. Although given that Stoick wasn’t really listening to Hiccup it is likely he made this up.

* GladIThoughtOfIt: Stoick word for word quotes the myth about Thunderdrums that Hiccup said to him earlier. Hiccup remarks, [[DeadpanSnarker "So I've heard."]]
* GoneHorriblyRight: Stoick realizes how useful dragons are to help with his chiefing, and takes Toothless regularly to do his chiefing. Hiccup is worried because the chief is to heavy for Toothless to ride, and it leaves Hiccup without his dragon.

* AdultFear: Gobber exploits this by reminding Stoick that a dragon could help him protect Berk from Alvin. Given that Alvin kidnapped Hiccup in the previous episode . . .

Added DiffLines:

* CallBack:
** Gobber points out that dragons can help protect Berk from invaders like Alvin.
** Likewise, the blacksmith is still the dragon dentist on the island.
** Hiccup reiterates that bonding with a dragon requires trust. Stoick finally gets it by the end of the episode.
** During the TerribleIntervieweesMontage, Hookfang burns Stoick's trousers the way he's burned Snotlout before. It puts Stoick off wanting a Monstrous Nightmare.


Added DiffLines:

* DrivesLikeCrazy: Stoick with Toothless, because he has powerful movements with the pedal without Hiccup's finesse.


Added DiffLines:

* LogicalWeakness: Stoick is too large for Toothless, leaving the dragon exhausted with repeated ridings. Toothless also doesn't have the energy to buck off the chief, and resorts to hiding from him in the hut rafters.
