Hey! Ho! - Hey! - Hey! - La, la, la, la, la, la - Look at us.
We didn't have a care in the world.
Except for Bergens.
See, Bergens didn't sing or dance.
They were always sad.
No, sadder.
Even sadder.
Yep, nailed it.
In fact, they thought the only way to become happy like a Troll was to, um Oh, my Guh! Well, you get the idea.
So Trolls and Bergens made peace, starting what I'm sure will be a harmonious new era.
And that, Branch, is why we're having a parade today.
Thanks for the lengthy recap, Poppy.
But I was there, remember? - That's me.
- Oh, I know.
I just saw an opportunity to share my scrapbook.
And I took it.
Let the first annual Troll Liberation Parade begin! Raise up your hands - I want you dancin' - Raise 'em up, raise 'em up now There's no, no time to hesitate - Do it, do it now - Lift up Your voices all together right now 'Cause your day is our day Say good-bye to the clouds Good-bye to the rain And look to a world Where everything's changed And freedom is ours So let's gather around and celebrate We are free together And we're soaring so high Yeah, high in the sky And we're smuggling by And shining so brightly Free forever And we're livin' our lives In lovin' and laughter Freely and happily ever after Whoo! Great job, Trolls.
As your queen, I decree that tomorrow, we're having a Troll Liberation Party! Hear that, Mr.
Dinkles? A party! Go ahead, it's okay to cry.
Meep.
Oh, it gets better, 'cause I led us here to give this invitation to a very special guest.
The Bergens! I said, the Bergens! The Bergens! What am I doing wrong here? Poppy, come on.
A party? With the Bergens? You're kidding.
She is? Oh, oh.
Oh, okay.
Oh.
I get it now.
It took me a second.
Wha? No.
Guys, I'm inviting the Bergens 'cause they're our friends now, remember? We've been singing about it for a half hour.
It's a new era! See? Okay, that's enough scrapbook for today.
- Nighty-night, scrapbook.
- Sorry, Poppy.
The Bergens are just so different than we are.
And they're not into our music.
They even hate being glittered! Who wouldn't enjoy that? And sure, we're all glad the Bergens have promised not to eat us.
But, one, are we sure they all promised? Two, what if they change their minds? And three I lifted too many fingers.
Oh, please, you all are being ridiculous.
I promise you, it's perfectly safe.
Did we miss the parade? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! It's just our friends! Hey, Bridget.
Hey, Gristle.
Oh, no, what scared them off? Guys, we've just got to get the Trolls and Bergens to be friends.
- So we are inviting you to a party.
- Wha? A Troll party? It's a dream come true! All I need is a plus-one.
Oh! You make me feel Like there's no Other people on this Earth Whoa! Still here, guys.
Feeling awkward.
- Oh, yes, that's right, sorry.
- Oh, yeah, sorry.
Right.
Poppy, listen, you can't do this party.
The Trolls aren't ready to have the Bergens in our village.
Branch, just trust me.
This party is gonna be a smash! This party's a disaster! Go on, shake their hands.
Fine, go shake their hand.
- Oh, my Guh! - Forget it! Not worth it.
Uh, excuse me.
Would you care for some punch? Whoa! Why can't they just have fun together? Gee, I don't know.
Maybe because everyone here was everyone else's worst enemy? Sarcasm.
How refreshing, coming from you, Branch.
You should know we still have our old Bergen defenses.
I'm not saying we use them, but - I'm saying we use them.
- No.
Come on, at least the nets.
No, Branch! Get rid of that thing.
- Get rid of Gary? - Yes.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got a Wait, you named it? I didn't have that many friends till recently, okay? Anyway, as I was saying, I've got a party to save.
Who's up for a game? Uh Is it a Troll? Uh, uh, uh! Fun, eh, guys? What? The clue was breakfast.
I drew it impeccably.
Okay.
Dancing, anyone? Just skip to the gift exchange! Gift exchange! As a token of our new friendship, we present you, the Trolls, with this traditional Bergen gift.
All right! Parade floats.
No.
Piñatas! No, no, see, it's filled with treats.
Look, I get it.
Some of our experiences with the Bergens today have been deeply scarring.
But I swear, it's all been one big miscommunication.
Bridget's a Bergen, and I trust her completely.
You wouldn't eat me, would you, Bridget? Eat my best friend? No way.
That'd be super weird.
You sure? Even if I covered myself in syrup? Poppy, no! Too delicious.
Never! I'm a powdered-sugar girl.
Even if I put my head right in your mouth? Oh! Ooh.
See? And if Bergens weren't safe, I certainly couldn't do this! Whoo! Ha ha! Yeah! Whoo-hoo! And if you think that's good, check this out! Ooh.
We were right to fear the Bergens.
They've reverted to their old ways.
They've turned the tables.
Defend yourselves! Poppy, are you okay? Caught myself on this hangy-thingy! Bridge, a little help? And are you okay, my love? - You - Guys, not now! - Yep.
Sorry about that.
- Okay.
Whoa! Look at this mess! Ugh, you were right, Branch.
We weren't ready.
This party was a horrible idea.
No, it wasn't horrible.
It was just enthusiastic.
With horrible consequences.
But I know your heart was in the right place.
Okay, enough! We've got to get this insanity under Control! Gary Today you have become a man.
Look, it's come to my attention that this party may have been premature.
And I'm sure Branch is very sorry he threw it.
What? Now I see that if we're gonna get along, we all need a bit more time to change.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Are you suggesting we Bergens have to change? Uh Of course we should.
Like, when we dance, we should hold the Trolls up off the ground so we don't, you know, horribly crush their skulls.
Great suggestion.
Who else? I suppose we could remove sensitive game clues like "things we like to eat alive.
" Ooh, and we can throw out the Troll-shaped piñatas and replace them with baby Troll-shaped piñatas.
Mm-mm.
Uh, I mean rainbow-shaped piñatas? Bingo! And, Bergens, can we Trolls do anything for you? Well, we'd love it if you wouldn't fart glitter in our faces.
Okay, noted.
Also, could you go easy on the loud noise and bright lights when we're around? They sort of freak us out.
What do you say, Trolls? Uh, sorry.
We mean Yay.
Well, that does it! Bridget, would you do the honors? Me? Let's get this party started! Got to admit, that was a great thing you did.
Not great.
Just enthusiastic, with great consequences.
Good-bye to the rain And look to a world Where everything's changed And freedom is ours So let's gather around and celebrate We are free together - Hmm.
- Cannonball.
Having fun, Branch? Fun? How can anyone have fun? We're in the middle of a drought! See, this is where the waterline should be, and this is where it is, and this is where it's headed! I know.
Branch, it's been a while since it rained, but, please, let's not get all Branch about it.
You're not taking this seriously.
Did you even read the research I sent you? Uh Aah! I am taking the dry weather to heart.
I fixed the leaks in our rain basins, put restrictions on bubble baths, and I even mandated that the Trolls fill water balloons with Glitter! That's not enough.
We have to initiate my 90-step drought deterrent.
Step one: no showering.
Step two: live in underground tunnels and drink our own - That's step two? - Buddy I'm not saying the drought isn't an issue, but sometimes you have to look at the sunny side of the problem.
Hello? The sunny side is the problem! If it doesn't rain soon, our town will die! - Branch, you made that baby cry! - Oh! And now you're harvesting baby tears.
Every drop counts! Every precious sparkling baby drop! Okay, crazy.
Let's get you away from everyone and sort this out.
Can you think of anything more relaxing than scrapbooking? Saving the whole town from utter destruction.
I didn't hear that! Okay, time to share! Me first.
See, it's our town.
- And we're enjoying the sunshine.
- Yay! That ladder is a fire hazard.
You are a fun hazard.
Your turn! Okay.
It's our town if I can't figure out how to make it rain.
Branch, listen, that was impressive, but the weather's gonna be what the weather's gonna be.
You can't control it.
I have to.
I'll do whatever it takes to make it rain.
- Who's there? - Boo.
Boo who? Don't cry, it's just a drought.
Who said that? It was me.
Hey, guys.
How's it going? Oh, no, not you.
Oh, come on, Branch.
It's Cloud Guy.
No way.
But he's hilarious.
Uh-uh.
I can help with the rain problem.
Prove it.
High five first.
Gary, intruder.
Fine, Grouchy McGee, I'll just tell you how I can help.
See the big guy up there? He does whatever I want him to.
Like so.
Ah! Pew-woop! Oh.
Keep going.
Keep going.
You're almost there.
Missed it again.
Make it rain everywhere right now.
Sure, I'd be happy to do that favor For my best buddy.
- I'll be your best buddy.
- Oh, I know you will.
But I want him to be my best buddy for an entire day.
Then I'll give you all the rain you can handle.
Me, best friends with you? Poppy, you're right, he is hilarious.
Branch! Oh, no, no, that's fine.
I guess me and my pal here will just take a walk, then.
- Branch! - All right, all right! We'll be best friends Sitting inside in silence for eight hours.
Then it rains.
Whoa-ho-ho! Tickle the brakes, sour grapes.
This is best friendship.
And best friendship? Oh, it's got rules.
Best friends rule número uno: best buds always think alike.
Are you thinking about how much you hate talking clouds right now? Nope.
Huh! We must need practice.
Say what you see on three.
One, two, three.
- Cloud.
- Octopus.
Have you ever seen an octopus? Let's try again.
This time, focus on my brain mojo.
Brain mojo.
One, two, three.
- Cloud.
- Chiropractor.
Branch, come on, you're not even trying.
This is ridiculous.
You're quitting? And here I thought we'd get to see some rain today.
- Fine! - Pew.
One, two, three.
- Unicorn.
- Cloud.
Unicorn? Heh.
I just don't see it.
Rule B: best buds always need a best buds photo album.
Just one day, just one day.
Smile.
Oh, it's perfect! Now for page two.
Arbitrary rule number three: best buds never miss their target.
Pew-pew.

Pew.
Having fun yet, best bud? Pew.
Rule number cuatro: best buds boogie, baby.
Watch the routine, learn the routine, love the routine.

The sprinkler The moonwalk The worm Pay attention, dumpy diapers You're next The lonely postman, the quirky turkey Yeah! Hoo! You're up, buddy.
Well, you looked ridiculous, and I hate dancing, but I did agree to be your best friend.
So I guess I'll just have to Ha! No way, dude! The day is over! We are not buddies! And we will never be buddies.
Now pay up.
Make it rain.
Oh! I said, "Oh!" Why is it not raining? Because I said you had to be my best buddy for a day.
And I was.
Ah, but I didn't say which day.
Branch? Pal? It's okay.
Just relax.
Aah! Oh, yeah, you better take cover, 'cause the storm's coming.
Oh! Oh, yes! Yes! Yeah, baby! You see this? Oh! It is a good thing one of us took the drought seriously.
Touché, Branch.
Touché.
You know, I'm not the type of guy who calls himself a genius, so I'm just gonna pause and let us both think it.
- Aah! - You were saying, genius? - Whoa! - Oh! Oh, no! This rain could wipe out Troll Village.
No! I won't let it.
I'll just, uh, use the rocks to build a dam.
A dam? Branch, are you insane? A dam isn't gonna cut it.
This is happening because you scared Cloud Guy.
Now go find him and make it right.
- No, this is a serious problem! - Meep.
And he doesn't take anything seriously.
Waah! Whoa! Aah! Fine.
I'll talk to the cloud.
But I don't know where to find him.
Well, he's scared.
Where would you be if you were scared? In my survival bunker? This cloud has a death wish.
- Who's there? - Branch.
Branch who? I'm not doing a bit! It's Branch! Look, I'm sorry about today.
I was just worried for the town, and you kept joking, and that just made me so mad that I just wanted to He's got Gary, too? Focus.
Okay, okay, I'm sorry.
Please come outside.
No.
You're scary.
You have to lighten up.
Show him the fun Branch that I know.
Hey, buddy, I've been meaning to ask you why did the cloud cross the road? I don't know.
Why? Wind.
Wow, that's dry But pretty good.
Branch, I think you're onto something.
Keep going! Hey, uh, remember rule number cuatro? Well, I watched the routine.
You learned the routine? I loved the routine.
Go! The sprinkler The moonwalk The worm The shopping cart The sustainable cabbage patch And jazz hands - Amazing, Branch.
- Amazing! You know, I knew you had it in you.
- The dance? - No.
That smile.
Next time, don't make me pretend to be scared to drag it out of you.
You were joking the whole time? Yep.
Got you good, pal.
Put 'er there.
Too slow.
Say, I get bored floating around up there.
Do you think I could move into your scaredy hole with you, roomie? Of course.
That wouldn't be annoying at all.
Come on! Too slow.
