Eret is first seen in a ship by Astrid and Hiccup with some other men. He fires a trap to Stormfly and is intentioned to held her captive but Hiccup and Astrid stops him. He introduces himself as a dragon trapper under the orders of Drago Bludvist. As he says, Drago wants to capture all dragons to make an army and he is the one in charge to get them. Eret blames the two vikings for their destroyed base, surrounded by ice. The two riders however, are able to free the Deadly Nadder and fly away. Lately, they return to his ship, saying that they want to meet Drago, surrendering to him and giving his weapon to his men. Eret's men, curious, opens it up and sprays green gas which is actually Zippleback gas. Aware that it only takes a spark to explode, Eret flees out of the blast radius and is unharmed when sparked. Furious, he throws it out and Stormfly think its fetch. Eret asks Hiccup what is he up to, Hiccup explains that he wants to see Drago and persuade his mind about dragons. Eret, laughs that it's impossible to change his mind, but Hiccup tells him that he himself can change his mind also, But before he can do anything Hookfang suddenly grabs Hiccup, and discovers that Hiccup's dad has located him, Eret tells Stoick that he has picked the wrong ship to land on, but Stoick responds by pushing him back. He gets annoyed with Ruffnut after trying to flirt with him which he has no interest at all at her.

Lately, while he and his men don't know what to do without dragons, Stormfly picks him up and he is forced to guide them to Draco's army. Stormfly  seems to have a soft spot for him since she saves his life after that Drago's henchmen discovers the riders and capture them, bringing the group to Drago's ship. Eret is touched by this and, if before he sold them all, both riders and dragons, to Drago, he then decides to help the boys to free their dragons, being a valid ally for the group, even if he is dragonless. During the battle at the dragon's den, he rides Stormfly with Astrid and is welcomed among them by Hiccup. After Drago takes control of all dragons, he flies back to Berk on the young dragon hatchlings and, in the end, he is given to ride Stoick's dragon, Skullcrasher.
