Poppy is trying to get Smidge to make up her mind what flavor of ice cream she wants as she is holding up an entire line of Trolls queuing. Smidge asks the vendor to give her samples of everything, and before Poppy can stop her she gets a brain freeze. Poppy states that she is taking Smidge to Dr. Moonbloom and Smidge pretends she is better to get out of it. Smidge begs Poppy to must take her to see the doctor despite being in agony, as she finds her too intimidating. Guy Diamond claims that he hasn't been to her in years, but adds that his body never had any problems in years. Poppy is then worried Trolls aren't getting the healthcare they need because they are afraid of the doctor.
In the waiting room to see the doctor, Dr. Moonbloom states she has lost another one, referring to her hug watch, but the remark has Poppy and a patient worried at first. Poppy tells her to smile and greet each patient with a laugh, but when she tries it on her waiting patient he freaks out. Poppy stops her and tells her to be more fun to put the Trolls at ease.
Poppy takes Dr. Moonbloom to Cooper to bring out her silly side. Cooper is a master of silliness according to Poppy, and is chasing his own tail, except he doesn't have one. They try several things, but all of them fail to bring out Dr. Moonbloom's silliness of as she keeps switching to doctor mode, such as trying to save a balloon animal with real medical skills. Cooper has to take her back to the basics of silliness in order to teach her how to be silly. She hits herself with a custard pie and has a mental image pop inside her head of her silliness.
At the doctor's practice, Dr. Moonbloom shows her new silly side, making her patients happier. As Poppy high-fives Cooper, he hurts a foot. There is now a 3-week waiting list to see the doctor, as her silliness has gone viral and the village is now coming to see it. Poppy realizes no one needs medical attention despite this, and tries to address the issue with Dr. Moonbloom, though she decides that the best solution is just to give up being a doctor. With Dr. Moonbloom out of her job, there is now no-one to look after the health of the village, giving Poppy a new problem.
Poppy takes over using medical Scrapbooks, though she is not doing a great job of it. Cooper has his leg overbandaged, DJ Suki has DJ hands and won't stop making scratching movements, and Harper has a leg that has fallen asleep while her dad King Peppy needs her to examine a suspicious mole.
Guy brings in an emergency: Gia Grooves has gum in her hair. Smidge tries to sound like she knows what she's doing, but runs out in a panic. Poppy asks for a comb, but Guy says that she is not trained for this, to which Poppy informs them that Dr. Moonbloom can't help them and they are on their own.
Dr. Moonbloom is doing her silly act in front of an audience. As she finishes, Gemma Fur catches her attention with a bad cough. But when she tries to note the seriousness of the cough, the other Trolls think she is still being silly and continue to laugh at her.
At the clinic, the comb breaks and now Gia has that in her hair. Poppy decides they have no choice but to cut the hair, which Gia doesn't want because this is her best haircut. Guy holds onto Gia as Poppy goes to cut her hair.
Dr. Moonbloom returns at this moment. She tells Poppy that her silliness led her back to the clinic, and she looks at Gia's gummed hair. She tells Gia that she won't make it, causing Gia to faint, then adds she won't make it home for an hour as that is how long the peanut butter will take to get the gum out of her hair. Dr. Moonbloom is back to her old self, except now she is telling jokes to make her patients laugh.

*The title is a play on two jokes:
**"Knock, knock", which begins with someone saying those words. It is then followed by someone else asking "Who's there?": the joke goes on to give a joke response, usually based on a pun. (example - Knocker: Knock, knock. Responder: Who's there? Knocker: Pudding. Responder: Pudding who? Knocker: Pudding on your shoes before your trousers is a bad idea).
**"Doctor", which often begins with a "patient" saying "Doctor doctor" and their symptoms, while the doctor responds with a witty reply (example - Patient: Doctor doctor, I feel like a tepee and a wigwam. Doctor: No wonder, your two tents. (this example is a play on "too tense".)
*Guy and Gia both show the Glitter Troll vanity in this episode; Guy calls his body beautiful and Gia won't cut her hair.
*The balloon animal is red for a reason: to make it look like blood when it bursts.
*The gum in Gia's hair isn't just vanity that's a concern. The Trolls use their hair for natural self-defense among other things, and need it to move freely at a moment's notice.
