1 | As Hiccup, Gobber, and Fishlegs test out the Gronckle iron formula, Tuffnut shows up to report to everyone he was bitten by a wild unknown dragon. Later, Gobber tells the riders about the mysterious [[{{Weredragon}} Lycanwing]] that turns people into dragons with its bite, and thanks to Snotlout, Tuffnut now thinks he is the latest victim. |

4 | !!Tropes: |
5 | |
6 | * AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Ruffnut spends the whole episode worried about her brother and pissed at Snotlout for tricking him. Snotlout would come to regret getting on her bad side. |
7 | * BecomingTheMask: Tuff eventually reveals (to the chicken) that he was just faking that he believed Gobber's story, but after overhearing Hiccup talking about finding evidence of a real Lycanwing, Tuff begins to believe the story for real. |
8 | * CallBack: |
9 | ** Fishlegs and Gobber have figured out the formula for Gronckle Iron, three years after the happy accident. |
10 | ** The Dragon Eye lens that Gustav found leads Hiccup, Fishlegs, Toothless, and Meatlug to more lenses on Lycanwing Island. |
11 | * ChekhovsGun: The Dragon Eye lenses that Gustav and Hiccup found earlier. Hiccup and Fishlegs learn that the fake Lycanwing is composed of them. |
12 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: When Ruffnut tries to identify the dragon that bit Tuff, she finds that none of the bites match. At the end, Snotlout reveals it was a wolf bite. |
13 | * GeniusDitz: Tuffnut remembers that sea snakes are venomous long before his sister does, after Snotlout is bitten. |
14 | * HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: The wolf, it's only seen while in a sack and when it escapes, the camera switches to its point of view. |
15 | * HumiliationConga: Ruffnut forces Snotlout to get bitten by many kinds of dragon and a venomous sea snake, partially to find out what really bit Tuffnut, and partially to get back at him for seemingly convincing Tuffnut that he's turning into a dragon. And at the end of the episode, Snotlout gets bitten and later mauled by a wolf. |
16 | * LargeHam: Tuffnut at first pretending and then believing that he is going to change into a Lycanwing. |
17 | * LeapOfFaith: Tuffnut plans to do one at the climax to trigger a dragon transformation. Ruffnut is freaking out, understandably. |
18 | * OhCrap: Ruffnut when she finds Tuffnut and Chicken are missing. |
19 | * OurWerebeastsAreDifferent: Lycanwings are said to have a bite that turns people into human-dragon hybrids on full moon nights. |
20 | * POVCam: At the end, we see things from the wolf's POV as it mauls Snotlout. |
21 | * RedHerring: Hiccup and Fishlegs do find Lycanwing Island, but the only important things there were new parts for the Dragon Eye. |
22 | * ScaryShadowFakeout: In the cave at Lycanwing Island, the rocks have been arranged so that any light shined down the tunnel will make the shadow of a giant dragon. |
23 | * SuddenlyVoiced: Chicken starts talking with a seductive female voice at the height of Tuffnut's insanity. |
24 | * TakeThat: [=DreamWorks=]' arch rival Disney once had [[Westernanimation/AmericanDragonJakeLong an animated series about humans who could turn into dragons]] -- this episode mocks the concept to death. Gobber's description of the Lycanwing as "a red, black-eyed dragon" even matches the description of Jake Long's dragon form! |
25 | * TalkingDownTheSuicidal: Or rather, talk down the teenager who thinks he's going to change into a dragon. Ruffnut tries, but manages to only stall long enough for Hiccup and Fishlegs to reveal that the Lycanwing was a decoy. |
26 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Snotlout only meant to play a prank on Tuffnut, but he didn't expect Tuff to become TooDumbToLive. |
27 | * WeakenedByTheLight: A symptom of the Lycanwing curse; upon learning this, Snotlout points out that Tuffnut can't look directly towards the sun. |
28 | * WhatTheHellHero: Ruffnut is ''very'' angry at Snotlout for tricking her brother and possibly endangering him, and she lets him know. |
