Script

(Smidge has thrown a party but is whimpering in fear. Poppy is trying to calm her down.)

Poppy: It’s gonna be all right, Smidge.

Biggie: Um… Smidge, I went around and asked everyone what they think about the party you’ve hosted.

Smidge: What did they say? That it’s awesome? Mind-blowing? Insane?!

Biggie: They said it’s… (He sees some Trolls who are not having fun.)

Troll #1: Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

Biggie: … “good.” (Smidge gasps and faints. Poppy catches her.

Poppy: Brutal. Get me… the Life of the Party. (Biggie uncovers a spotlight, pulls a lever, and a signal lights up the night sky. Guy Diamond appears while hang gliding with his hair. He then lands on the ground.)

Guy Diamond: Never fear, Guy Diamond’s here. (He laughs and pulls a strong. Two flowers shoot out confetti. The Trolls then cheer for Guy Diamond. He turns on some music and the Trolls start dancing. He then pours some juice into cups for them.)

Smidge: Guy!

Guy Diamond: Hm?

Smidge: Thank you! Thank you so much!

Guy Diamond: It was nothing, Smidge. (More signals appear in the sky.) Well, it looks like another party needs me. (He groans and faints. Luckily, Poppy catches him.)

Smidge: Guy!

Poppy: Are you OK?

Guy Diamond: I’ll survive. But being the village’s Life of the Party every night is exhausting. Sometimes I feel like I’m running on empty. (He hits his bottom twice and does a glitter fart.) Oh. Not quite. (He gets up and sighs.) But you know what they say: “With great partying comes great responsibility.”

Smidge: Sounds like you need a night off. You should train someone else to be the Life of the Party.

Guy Diamond: Ooh! Ooh! What I should do is train someone else to be the Life of the Party. (Smidge grunts.) Then they could cover me long enough to get one night off. (laughs) Can you believe I just came up with such a great idea?

Smidge: No, I can’t. (Guy Diamond does a glitter fart and flies off. The next day, he is walking with Poppy.)

Guy Diamond: Finding an apprentice won’t be easy, Poppy. Whoever it is must have a special quality, a certain je ne sais Guy, as they say.

Poppy: What about Satin and Chenille over there? (She points to Satin and Chenille about to buy cupcakes from Cooper.) They have a lot of style.

Guy Diamond: Yes, but being the Life of the Party means creating social harmony. And the twins, well…

Satin: I want a frosted muffin.

Chenille: I want a cupcake.

Satin: Frosted muffin!

Chenille: Cupcake!

Satin: FROSTED MUFFIN!

Chenille: CUPCAKE! (She and Satin growl at each other.)

Guy Diamond: Harmony isn’t their strong suit.

Poppy: Fair enough. What about Biggie? He’s nice to everyone. (She shows Biggie showing a picture of Mr. Dinkles in a book to a purple male Troll.)

Guy Diamond: My apprentice needs to be able to spark conversations. Biggie tends to get stuck on one subject.

Biggie: And this is Dinkles taking a nap. (He turns the page.) And this is Dinkles roller-skating. (He turns the page again.) Ooh! And this is Dinkles looking at an album of Dinkles pictures.

Guy Diamond: (groans) It’s hopeless! Great parties are living things. It takes the right Troll to help them- (He hears humming.) … grow. (Meadow Spriggs is pouring water on the ground. Suddenly, a plant grows and reveals orange and pink flowers.) Who is that?

Poppy: You mean Meadow Spriggs, the village flourist?

Guy Diamond: “Make parties grow.” (He imagines Meadow pouring water into a bowl as some male Trolls cheer.) Wow. (He imagines Meadow throwing confetti at the Trolls as they cheer.) Oh! (He imagines Meadow watching some Trolls dance as they cheer.) She’s perfect!

Poppy: Yeah, Meadow’s great. But there is one thing you should know about her-

Guy Diamond: No time to listen! Already jumped to conclusions! (He runs over to Meadow.)

Poppy: Guy! (She runs after Guy Diamond. Meadow soon sees him and gasps.)

Guy Diamond: Hello. Guy Diamond here. I was over there, admiring your work and-

Meadow: Wait, Trolls have been standing around, watching me? Oh, that’s so embarrassing! (Her hair grabs an umbrella and she covers herself with it.)

Poppy: (whispers) See? She’s very shy.

Guy Diamond: Shy? I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with this term.

Poppy: You know, she doesn’t like being the center of attention.

Guy Diamond: Yeah, I can tell words are coming out of your mouth, but… (He uncovers the umbrella.) Meadow, I’d like to offer you… (He sees Meadow leaving. Then he runs toward her.) I’d like to offer you… (Meadow puts a bush over him and he gets out.) I’d like to offer you the… (Meadow grows a plant with a mouth and goes inside it.) I’d like to offer you the chance to be my apprentice and become the Life of the Party! (Meadow opens a tooth.)

Meadow: Nope, sorry, that is not for me. I never feel confident with Trolls the way I do with plants. End of story! (She closes the tooth.)

Guy Diamond: Hm? But don’t you see? Taking care of parties is just like taking care of plants. You sow the seeds of merriment, fertilize with refreshments, nurture it in the warm glow of dance, until the whole thing blossoms with fun!

Meadow: Wow. (The plant opens its mouth.) I’ve never made that connection before.

Poppy: (Hiding in the bush) I’m pretty confident no-one has.

Meadow: Well, it would be good for me to get more comfortable in social situations. I’ll do it.

Guy Diamond: Fantastic! Let’s start with the basics. (He runs off.)

Meadow: Oh. Um… This is happening right now? (Guy Diamond returns with a tall chart.)

Guy Diamond: There are five levels of parties. First, there’s “Bumpin’.” Basically, any party that doesn’t involve me. Above that, there’s “Jammin’.” All parties I attend are automatically elevated to this level. Then it becomes a “Rager,” after I apply my party skills and bring it to life! Above that, there’s “Thru Da Roof!” The party overtakes the crowd as they form a hair chair, lifting the party leader above them in majesty! And then… legend tells of an ultimate party level: Out of Con-Troll, when everyone’s hair spontaneously shimmers a magnificent gold. But it’s just a legend. Aim for Jamin’. Any questions?

Meadow: I usually go to bed at six. Is that going to be a problem? (Annoyed, Guy Diamond sighs. Later, he shows his friends to help Meadow.)

Guy Diamond: All right, I’ve put together a practice party. Now, get out there and breath some life into it.

Meadow: Uh… I’m really nervous.

Guy Diamond: Don’t be. Just picture them like they’re plants. (Meadow groans and he pushes her toward Smidge, Cooper, and Biggie.) Quick, wow them with some witty chitchat.

Meadow: (mutters) I’m so uncomfortable. So comfortable. So very uncomfortable.

Smidge, Cooper, and Biggie: Hm?

Guy Diamond: Speak up, Meadow.

Meadow: (mutters) I’m so uncomfortable. I’m so uncomfortable. So uncomfortable. (Guy Diamond puts a megaphone in front of her.) So uncomfortable. So very uncomfortable!

Biggie: Don’t feel like that.

Smidge: Yeah, you’re doing great.

Cooper: This is a disaster!

Guy Diamond: (sighs) Cooper’s right. (He throws the megaphone away.)

Meadow: I’m so sorry, Guy.

Guy Diamond: It’s not your fault. Being Life of the Party is simply a piñata I must break… alone. (He walks away. Later that night, he goes to a coffee shop.)

Coffee Shop Owner: I got a full sweet rainbow frappe for a Doug Guy-Mint?

Guy Diamond: (groans) Right here. (He takes the cup and Poppy appears.)

Poppy: Whoa. Kind of late for coffee.

Guy Diamond: Yeah, I’m in for a long night. (He drinks the entire cup and sees the signal.) See. (The signal turns off.) Wait, they just turn off the party signal? (He and Poppy run to where the signal was shown. Dance music can be heard.) What is going on?

Smidge: Guy! Poppy! It was amazing! This party was totally dead, and then she just came out of nowhere!

Poppy and Guy Diamond: Who? (Meadow appears from the sky on a plant.)

Meadow: Why, the Life of the Party, of course! (She gets off the plant, laughs and throws seeds that makes flowers and cannons grow.)

Guy Diamond: Meadow?! But how? This party’s at Rager level! (The Trolls are cheering and dancing. A yellow male Troll can be seen holding onto a flying bug.)

Troll #2: Yaaaaay! (A purple male Trolls is seen dancing on a table.)

Meadow: (giggles) It was that last lesson of yours. You know, the one where you pretended to give up on me to inspire me to find my confidence.

Guy Diamond: Oh… yes. That’s exactly what I did.

Meadow: Then I remembered what you said about partiers. “Just picture them like they’re plants.” (She pictures a light blue and purple male Troll as flowers laughing. She then pictures a yellow male Troll and a blue female Troll as plants hitting a piñata.) Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a party to tend to. (She runs off.) Woooo-hoooo!

Guy Diamond: Oh, my Troll. I am so proud.

Poppy: You should be. She really sprouted.

Smidge: Yeah. You made Meadow as good a Life of the Party as you are, Guy.

Guy Diamond: Wait, what? (scoffs) Surely not as good as me.

Cooper: Oh, for sure. I even want her at my search party. I’m planning on getting lost later. (He laughs and runs away. Smidge follows him.)

Guy Diamond: Can she really be that good?

Poppy: Easy, Guy. They didn’t mean anything by that. There’s no reason to believe Meadow’s as good as you.

Meadow: Hey, party people! Who wants to see me take this party to the next level?! (The Trolls cheer for her and she grows plants in the form of sound speakers. Dance music plays from it.)

Keith: All right! Wahoo! (The Trolls form a chair with their hair.)

Guy Diamond: (gasps) A hair chair?! She’s taken it to Thru Da Roof?! No-one out-parties Guy Diamond!

Meadow: What was that? You want me to sit in that chair?

All: Yeah!

Meadow: OK! (She throws seeds and a leaf lifts her toward the chair.)

Guy Diamond: Anyone want to see a party trick?! (The crowd murmurs and sees him buy a food table.) Well, feast your eyes on Guy. (He takes the cloth off the table (A group of Trolls with their hair formed as a chair comes over to him.)

Meadow: Oh, nice one, Guy! (The camera shows her at a table with roses.) Check this out! (She puts a cloth on the table and candles light up. The Trolls cheer for her.)

Guy Diamond: Oh, yeah?! (The camera shows him sitting upside down.) Just try and match this! (He does a glitter fart and fireworks explode in the air.)

All: Wow!

Meadow: Whoa! I’ll do my best! (She plants some flowers that shoot fireworks.)

All: Ooh! (Guy Diamond gasps, rockets himself into the air and a firework explodes behind him.) Ooh!

Baby: Whoa. (Meadow plants more flowers and a huge firework explodes in the shape of a flower. Guy Diamond grunts, rockets into the air again, and makes fireworks in the shape of a Troll explode. Meadow jumps into the air and a red firework in the shape of a Troll explodes.)

Meadow: YEAH!!! (Guy Diamond yells in anger. More fireworks explode in the air and the Trolls cheer. Guy Diamond pants and lies down.)

Guy Diamond: I… I can’t keep up. (groans) I guess I’m not the Life of the Party. Not anymore.

Meadow: Guy, that’s not true. Just look at what you’ve done!

Guy Diamond: What? (The Trolls’ hair light up in gold.

Meadow: It’s…

Guy Diamond: … Out of Con-Troll. (The Trolls cheer as their hair light up Troll Village.) I never thought I’d ever accomplish it. And we did it together. I can’t believe we were competing.

Meadow: Wait, we were competing?

Guy Diamond: It’s in the past. The point is, all this time, I was looking for an apprentice, but maybe that what I really needed was a partner. (Meadow gasps with joy. The signal then lights up the sky.)

Meadow: You still want to take the night off?

Guy Diamond: Eh. Maybe tomorrow. Shall we? (He and Meadow fly to where the signal is shining.)
