=== Watch Out for Hug Time ===
At the market, Branch is buying a big fruit the size of his head. All of a sudden, hug time happens and the vendor hugs Branch, destroying it in the process anyway. Branch notices Poppy is not around and it's odd for her to miss hug time. Poppy's Hug-Time Bracelet goes off as she nears Maddy's saloon, and she enters to give Maddy a hug. As she hugs Maddy, Maddy accidentally cuts a client's hair wrong and snips off a large chunk. She's confused by Poppy's hug because hug time was 40 minutes ago.
Poppy takes Branch to one of DJ Suki's parties "because it's fun". Her hug bracelet goes off in the middle of her song and she hugs DJ, stopping her from playing music. Poppy exits with Branch. 
Away from the party, Poppy realizes her hug bracelet is not working right and states next time it goes off she may want to hug Branch. Branch tries to fix the watch, but a simple "turn-on, turn off" doesn't work. 20 minutes later, Poppy begins to cry over her watch as she fears missing out on hug time, which Peppy overhears. Peppy recalls it happening once before when he was younger, but he can't remember how to fix the watch. Poppy and Branch go to the library.
At the library, Branch sneezes and knocks over some books, leading to him finding the book telling how to fix the watch. He asks if he can go home and Poppy says they can fix the watch now, which is even better. The book is not helpful, as it mentions some kind of Troll magic can fix the bracelet, but the page is torn. Poppy leaves and sneezes again, getting once more covered in books.
Later, Poppy is about to throw her watch away when Branch appears having told the other Trolls what happened. They hug her because they don't want her to feel sad or to throw her watch away. The Troll magic turns out to be love, and Branch lets her hug him just this once.
