The episode kicks off with a bang as Snotlout, feeling a bit restless, decides to embark on a solo adventure. However, instead of his usual impulsive escapades, Snotlout surprises his friends by revealing his new alter ego - Ace Fumblebum, the greatest detective in the Archipelago. With a magnifying glass and a sense of determination, Snotlout is determined to solve the mystery of the missing Aggesing Stone, a valuable artifact said to possess mysterious powers.

Eager to prove himself, Snotlout assembles his own team of "angels" - Astrid and Ruffnut. While Astrid is initially skeptical of Snotlout's detective skills, Ruffnut is instantly excited by the chance to be part of a crime-solving trio. With Snotlout donning a dashing detective hat and Astrid and Ruffnut in matching detective outfits, they set out on their mission.

Meanwhile, Hiccup and the rest of the Dragon Riders are a bit perplexed by Snotlout's sudden change in behavior. They decide to secretly follow him to ensure he doesn't get into any trouble. Hiccup watches as Snotlout stumbles upon the first clue, a cryptic message carved into a tree trunk. Although Hiccup is wary of Snotlout's abilities, he realizes that the young warrior might be onto something after all.

As Snotlout, Astrid, and Ruffnut delve deeper into the mystery, they encounter various obstacles and challenges.
