[Stoick and Gobber find Hiccup and Toothless at the dragon sanctuary. Stoick grabs Hiccup by the arm and drags him through the cave.]
Hiccup: Wait, wait! Dad, there is something you need to know!
Stoick: [not really listening] Yeah, yeah. Tell me on the way.
Hiccup: No, this isn't an "on the way" kind of update, actually.
Stoick: [stubbornly] I've heard enough!
Hiccup: More of the earth-shattering-development variety.
Stoick: Yeah, just add it to the pile.
Hiccup: Dad, unlike most surprises I spring on you, this is one you'll like. I promise. You just have to handle it delicately. So...
[They reach a stunned Gobber.]
Gobber: [to Stoick, stupefied] Uh, you might want to take this one.
Stoick: Huh? [draws his sword]
Gobber: Oh, boy.
Hiccup: [fearful] Oh. Uh, Dad, could you put the sword away, please?
[Stoick finally sees Valka and gasps, unbelieving and astonished. Gobber and Hiccup watch as Stoick drops his sword, removes his helmet, and slowly, silently advances toward Valka.]
Valka: [strong at first, but growing more nervous as Stoick draws closer] I know what you're gonna say, Stoick. How could I have done this? Stayed away all these years and why didn't I come back to you, to our son? Well, what sign did I have that you could change, Stoick, that anyone on Berk could? I pleaded so many times to stop the fighting, to find another answer, but did any of you listen?
Gobber: [aside, to Hiccup] This is why I never married. This and one other reason.
Valka: [very nervous] I know that I left you to raise Hiccup alone, but I thought he'd be better off without me, and I was wrong. I see that now, but... [nervously backs up against the wall; on the verge of tears] Oh, stop being so stoic, Stoick! Go on! Shout, scream, SAY SOMETHING!
[Stoick touches Valka's cheek. She stares at him in fear.]
Stoick: [also on the verge of tears] You're as beautiful as the day I lost you!
[Valka quietly weeps in relief; Stoick softly kisses her. A relieved and overjoyed Hiccup smiles.]
