Stranded

'Defiant One' focuses on Hiccup and Snotlout being stranded on the hostile 'Outcast Island' due to Snotlout being 'defiant'. Hiccup not only has to fix Toothless's broken tale, but has to also put up with Snotlout who has lost his dragon and constantly complains and can't understand the danger of them being stranded there and their only way home being fixing Toothless.

This episode is again largely about the problems Hiccup and Snotlout have with each other and them gradually accepting each other, Hiccup moreso than Snotlout. Not that Toothless gets no focus, as he has to work alone with Snotlout for a while and them two actually make quite a good team. He's also adorable when Snotlout sees him after collapsing on the sand.

We also get the Outcasts again, though quite briefly, and see Alvin harming dragons to try and tame them, but he believes that his only chance is Hiccup. On that matter, why can Hiccup now tame dragons by reaching his hand out to them? It should be harder than that, as it was with Toothless. I don't believe I like this very much, Toothless being able to tame any wild dragons by lifting his hand like he's using the force. No, Mark Hamill being in this is not an excuse for that.
