## Plot

### Hiccup receives the tickets

One fine day, Hiccup and Toothless are at Berk flying around the
island. But when he lands, Twilight then walks up and gives him a letter
 that was addressed to him. Hiccup, then reads it and finds that he's
been given 2 tickets to the Midnight Starlight Ball in Equinelantis by
Princess Celestia.

### Visiting the others

But when Hiccup passes by Snoutlout and Applejack they overhear him
talking about his tickets. Applejack says that if she goes to the Ball,
she will open an apple stand and earn money for her family (including
her own dragon). Hiccup, is impressed by this but then Snoutlout shares
that if he went, to the Midnight Starlight Ball he would impress the
Equines with some of the tricks he and Hookfang can do. But then
Applejack and him argue over it, till Hiccup breaks it up. He then says
he'll take one of them, after he thinks about it. But as he goes through
 town, Fishlegs and Pinkie bump into him. And the 2 wonder why he has
tickets, but when finds that they are for the Midnight Starlight Ball,
they shout out. But then, Rarity appears and notices the tickets, and
she is giddy as a school filly, because she always wanted to attend such
 a ball. But Hiccup is not convince, but at the same moment Angel
snatches his tickets and shows them to Fluttershy, who then asks Hiccup
if she can go with him, but just to admire the fauna around
Equinelantis. But then Ruffnut and Tuffnut show up, and ask Hiccup to
take one of them, but they both start to get into a quarrel. However, at
 the same time, Rainbow sees them as well. But then Snoutlout and
Applejack show up and everyone starts arguing about the ticket, until
Stoick breaks it up. And asks his son what is this. After Hiccup
explains about the tickets, Stoick tells the others to let Hiccup be and
 make his decision on his own.

### Doing favors for Hiccup

Later, when Hiccup is having lunch, when he notices the other vikings
 go inside due to some rain but when he looks, he sees that Rainbow Dash
 left a hole in a rain cloud to keep him dry. He tells her not to do
favors in order to get the spare ticket. Rainbow Dash closes the hole
and the rain drenches him. Later, Snoutlout tries to steal one of the
tickets. However, Hookfang alerts Hiccup that his owner's trying to
steal one of his tickets. Hiccup then snatches it back and tells
Snoutlout to wait for his decision like everyone else. And then later,
Rarity is getting impatient. So she tries to butter up Hiccup so he can
give her the ticket but he sees right through her plan. And tells her to
 let him think it through first. And then Applejack tries to bribe
Hiccup by giving him several apple deserts, but Hiccup passes. But then,
 Ruffnut and Tuffnut then showed up. And they both try different things
to make Hiccup give them the ticket but he still says no. But then
Fishlegs tries to bribe Hiccup with different books about the equines
and their culture, but Hiccup refuses. However, when he gets back home
he's shocked to see Fluttershy and her animals cleaning his house. He
sees that it's her method of getting the ticket (even though it was
Angel's idea). Then when Hiccup asks them to leave, Pinkie pulls him out
 and sings The Ticket Song. Pinkie inadvertently informs the whole town
about the extra ticket to the gala. A crowd of excited ponies and
vikings try to do favors for Hiccup, and he runs away. Luckily,
Toothless comes and flies him away.

### Hiccup's decision

Later, Hiccup reaches out to one of the rest stops he and Toothless
often visit. And then Astrid and Stormfly come in and Astrid asks Hiccup
 what's going on. Hiccup states that everyone has gone crazy, all
because he got 2 tickets for the Midnight Starlight Ball in
Equinelantis. He also shares how everyone was doing favors and bribing
him to try and get the other ticket, and how Snoutlout even tried to
steal the other one. Hiccup and Toothless, then had to escape from a
crowd of vikings and ponies trying to get the ticket too. Astrid then
has asks him if he had to pick someone, who would fit his description.
Hiccup ponders, and then says kind, loyal, and who'd always be there for
 him. And then he realizes who he can choose. He decides to take Astrid
with him. In which, she accepts. Then they both fly back to Berk, and
the 2 share about the decision Hiccup's made. The others, feeling bad
for putting so much pressure on Hiccup apologize. And soon, everyone
goes to the messhall to make it up to Hiccup as the episode ends.
