The following is a transcript for the episode "Kick-Off Party".
Script
(Poppy, Guy Diamond, and Biggie are walking in the field carrying invitations.)
Poppy: Wow, guys. Thanks so much for helping me make these invitations for my TrollsTopia kick-off party!
Biggie: Our pleasure, Poppy. Mr. Dinkles has been dying for a chance to show off his calligraphy skills. (We go to a flashback to where Mr. Dinkles makes the invitations with his calligraphy skills.)
All: Ooh! (We go back to the present.)
Poppy: They’re perfect! Which is good, ‘cause this party will set the tone for every party in TrollsTopia from here on out! So it is, without a doubt… the most important party ever thrown. (Tiny Diamond pops out of his father’s hair.)
Tiny Diamond: High stakes party, people! (He blows his airhorns.) Whoo!
Guy Diamond: Aw, Tiny Diamond! (laughs) Kids airhorn the gauntest things. (One of Tiny Diamond’s airhorn sticks out and he blows it again.)
Poppy: Now to just deliver these invitations and then… (She sees something.) Hey, wait. What’s that? (She sees a flyer of Val Thundershock’s kick-off party.)
Biggie: “Val’s Kick-Off Party, Misty Meadows, Tomorrow night.” (gasps) Poppy, Val’s having a party the same night as your party!
Poppy: Hm. We better go talk to Val. At Rock Hollow. (Soon, she and her friends arrive at Rock Hollow.)
All: Cool! (They see the Rock Trolls chilling out and playing their instruments.)
Rock Troll #1 and #2: EPIC JAM! (They smash their guitars against some sound speakers. Another couple finish a puzzle.)
Rock Troll #3 and #4: EPIC PUZZLE! (They play their guitars with their hair and smash the table.)
Rock Troll #5: I’m ready to rock!
Rock Troll #6 I’m ready to paper! (She holds her friends’ hand.)
Rock Troll #5: I better escape! (The camera moves over to Val who is on a couch throwing cupcakes on the wall in the shape of a skull. Poppy then arrives.)
Poppy: (Spreading her arms out for a hug) Hey, Val! Bring it in! (Val glares at her.) ‘Kay, too much. Course correcting. (She hugs herself.) There. Anyway, I was curious. Are you really throwing a kick-off party tomorrow night? (Val eats a cupcake.)
Val: Yep.
Poppy: Well, I just came here to let you know… I think that’s a great idea!
Val: OK…
Poppy: Nothing’s more in the spirit of TrollsTopia than another Tribe taking initiative to bring us together, right? (She takes out the invitations.) I was gonna throw a kick-off party, but I’ll happily toss my invitations away. (As soon as the invitations are in the garbage, they burn.) Who cares, right? (The camera zooms in on Mr. Dinkles and a tear runs down his face.) So, I’m dying to know what party you’re throwing. Can you just give us a little hint about your plans?
Val: Nah. I can’t tell you my plans, ‘cause Rocker Trolls don’t plan parties. (Biggie and Guy Diamond gasp.)
Poppy: Did… you… don’t party plan?
Val: Nah. I just go with the flow.
Poppy: Val, a successful party means properly executing so many details and you’ve gotta to think this through. (chuckles)
Val: I’ve gotta? Are you gonna tell me how to throw my party?
Poppy: Wha-? No, no, no, no. I-I just said… I-I uh…
Val: ‘Cause that wouldn’t be the spirit of TrollsTopia, would it? (She gets closer to Poppy.) Or wouldn’t it? Or would it?! Or wouldn’t it?!
Poppy: No! You… You’re right, Val. It’s your party. You should do it your way. (She chuckles nervously.)
Val: Cool.
Poppy: Yep. C-Cool! (She laughs as Val walks away with a cupcake.) We’ll just go with the flow. (She laughs and looks at Biggie and Guy Diamond.) We cannot go with the flow!
Biggie and Guy Diamond: Right! What do we do?
Poppy: We need help. Go round up the most party-loving Trolls we know.
Biggie and Guy Diamond: Got it! (Guy Diamond runs off while Biggie stays.)
Biggie: Actually, you have to be way more specific. (Back in Pop Village, Poppy, Branch, Biggie, Smidge, and Guy Diamond are making a plan.)
Poppy: All right, this kick-off party is too important to leave the chance. We have to plan it. But Val can’t know, so we have to make our plan seem spontaneous. Agreed? (Branch clears his throat.)
Branch: Uh, need I point out that this plan is observed?
Poppy: Uh, need I point out that I will badger you until you help?
Branch: You need not. (He walks backwards.)
Poppy: OK, first we need to get the word out so Trolls actually show up. We can’t send out invitations or she’ll know we’re planning. So instead, we’ll have to “spontaneously” spend the word to every situation we can.
Biggie: Hm. Every situation? (Later, some Trolls from each Tribe are swimming in the lake.)
Techno Troll #1: Marco!
All: Trollo!
Techno Troll #1: Marco! (Biggie pops up out of the water.)
Biggie: Troll… Oh, just have to go to Val’s Kick-Off Party tomorrow night in Misty Meadows. Please don’t be late. Just come in curtesy. Thank you! (The red Techno Troll holds his hand.) What? Oh. Marco!
All: Trollo! (Meanwhile, Poppy is telling Guy Diamond’s plan.)
Poppy: Next, we need refreshments to arrive… “accidentally”. So, Guy, you’ll pretend to be an ice cream vendor whose truck happens to break down right at the party.
Guy Diamond: Ah! Ice cream vendor number 1. I know just how to play the character. (He later appears in a carriage and it breaks down. He screams and falls down. He is wearing a chef outfit and a mustache. The carriage turns into an ice cream wagon.) Woe, woe is me! My wagon of ice cream! Who will eat all this before it melts?!
Poppy: Wait! How about trying that again, Guy. Only not so dramatic.
Guy Diamond: Hm. Less dramatic, eh? So like… (He changes into a clown costume and laughs.) Oh, no! (He blows a horn.) My ice cream truck has broken down! (He laughs put throws the pie he is holding in his face and blows his horn again.)
Poppy: Uh-uh.
Guy Diamond: I’ll work on it. (Poppy goes to Branch.)
Poppy: And at the end, we need something like a fireworks finale to happen out of the blue. Ooh what if two meteors strike across the sky and collide above the party, causing a brilliant cosmic light show?!
Branch: Wow!
Poppy: Yeah. Wow! Now make that happen! (She runs off.)
Branch: Wait, what?! (Poppy and her friends are doing one last party run through.)
Poppy: OK, one last party run through. (She puts a stick version of herself on a craft version of the party.) We’ll start with me at Val’s party. Nothing’s happening ‘cause she didn’t plan anything. (She moves her stick.) Then after six minutes and 13 seconds…
Guy Diamond: (Putting a stick version of himself dressed as a vampire on) I enter and put on a performance of a lifetime! (He knocks over his fake wagon.) Ha! (He speaks in a vampire accent.) Oh, no! My ice cream wagon has broken down Wah ha ha ha haaaa!
Poppy: OK. At 9:23.
Biggie: (Putting a stick version of himself on) Mr. Dinkles starts a conga line. Dance, dance, dance all the way to 9:34.
Smidge: (Putting a stick version of herself on) Then I release the Glowflies to provide festive lighting.
Poppy: Now we’re off and partying until 11:38. When Branch does his thing… (Fake meteors strike each other.) … mission accomplished! Got it, guys?
Smidge, Guy Diamond, and Biggie: Got it!
Branch: No! I have no idea how to do that!
Poppy: Got it, guys?
Smidge, Guy Diamond, and Biggie: Got it! (An angry Branch grunts and folds his arms. Later that night, the Trolls at the party are looking bored.)
Poppy: Well, unfortunately, I was right about Val’s party, but this is what happens when you go with the flow.
Biggie: But it will lighten up because in just minutes, all of our spontaneous wonder will begin.
Val: Huh. This party’s kind of a duh. What’s the deal?
Poppy: Gee, I don’t know. You think it could be ‘cause you didn’t plan anything?
Val: Hm. Nah. It’s the location. D’oh! Let’s move the party to the lagoon! (The Trolls run toward her and cheer.)
Poppy: What?!
All: Lagoon! Lagoon! Lagoon! Lagoon!
Poppy: Biggie, everything’s set to happen here in the meadow.
Biggie: But the lagoon is not the meadow! The meadow is the meadow!
Poppy: Gah! We gotta start the fun before they go! Guy, now! (Guy Diamond moves like a robot.)
Guy Diamond: (robotic) Oh, no! my ice cream truck has broken down! Bleep, bloop. (He talks in his normal voice.) Or maybe it’s… (He changes into a muscular person and talks in an angry voice.) My ice cream truck has broken down! Gah! No!
Poppy: (Pulling the tips of her hair) He’s not hearing me! Branch, meteors!
Branch: (Writing with his hand and foot) Still working on it!
Poppy: We gotta stall them! (She and Biggie run after the Trolls.)
All: Lagoon! Lagoon! (Poppy blocks their way.)
Poppy: Wait! You can’t leave now.
Val: We can’t? Why not?
Poppy: Because… because I… I have to… sing you a song!
Val: A song?
Poppy: Yeah! Uh… A song uh… about uh… this tree! (She chuckles as a leaf falls from the tree.) A-one, and a-two, and a- (She starts singing Leaves, Leaves, Leaves.)
(Poppy)
Look at this beautiful tree, er,
With a bark and the... leaves
Yeah, they’re all so brown and green
Leaves, leaves, leaves!
Bet you can’t count each one!
Leaves, leaves, leaves!
Leaves coming at-
Val: Wait! Are you singing a song about a tree… to stall us?
Poppy: No. (She throws some leaves away.)
Val: Good. To the lagoon!
All: Lagoon! Lagoon! Lagoon! Lagoon! (Poppy starts to panic.)
Poppy: Wait! You… you can’t go because… (sighs) … you’re gonna miss the party that we planned.
Val: Planned?
Poppy: We’re blown, guys. Go ahead and show ‘em. (She throws seeds in the ground and flowers playing music grow. Biggie spits confetti from a bug.)
Smidge: Fly, my pretties! Fly! (Some Glowflies fly out glowing colorful light. The Trolls watch in disbelief. Guy Diamond appears with his ice cream wagon dressed as a pirate.)
Guy Diamond: (In a pirate voice) Argh! Me ice cream vessel be broken down! (Tiny Diamond pops out of his hair.)
Tiny Diamond: (laughs) You nailed it, Daddy! (He hits an ice cream scoop on his father’s.)
Guy Diamond: Yah! (The Trolls run over to the ice cream wagon. Val remains with Poppy.)
Val: You planned my party?
Poppy: Yes, I did. Sorry, Val. This party was just too important to leave the chance.
Val: Yeah. I was counting on that.
Poppy: Hold on. You’re saying you… wanted me to plan your party?
Val: Yeah. I told you: Rocker Trolls throw their parties by going with the flow. I “fake laziness so that others work”. (She snaps her fingers and a smoke skeleton appears.)
Poppy: Oh.
Val: Well, I’m done talking to you now. PARTY!
Poppy: Wow. She was pulling my strings from the start. Well played. PARTY! (She goes over to the dancing Trolls and they cheer and dance. In the sky, two meteors strike each other and they all watch in amazement.)
Biggie: Branch, that was incredible! How did you manage that?!
Branch: (clears his throat) Well, Biggie, when you know much about Astro physics as I do-
Smidge: It was a coincidence, right?
Branch: (Kicking his chart away) Yep. Complete coincidence.
