Smidge is hosting a party and panicking. Poppy tries to calm her down, but then Biggie breaks the news that everyone thinks it is "good", causing Smidge to faint. Poppy orders Biggie to get her "the Life of the Party", who turns out to be Guy Diamond. Within moments, he turns the party around and everyone is happy. Smidge thanks him, but then four more summons light up the sky. Guy nearly faints and Poppy catches him. Being the Village's "Life of the Party" is getting to him and Guy is exhausted. Smidge suggests Guy to take a night off and trains someone else to take over the role of "Life of the Party". Guy takes the idea and repeats it as his own, much to Smidge's annoyance.
The next morning, Poppy and Guy are at the market and Guy states the apprentice need certain qualities. Poppy suggests Satin and Chenille first. While the twins have the style, they lack harmony. Biggie is her next suggestion, but even though he is friendly, he lacks the social skills as he only talks about Mr. Dinkles. Guy feels this is a hopeless cause until a voice attracts his attention.
He turns to Meadow Spriggs, who is looking after her flowers. He sees her grow the flowers and imagines her doing the same for parties. Before Poppy can warn Guy about a problem with her, Guy rushes off to talk to her. It turns out Meadow is extremely shy, and a concept Guy struggles to understand. Guy chases after Meadow as she runs away, trying to tell her he would like to offer her a chance to be his apprentice, but at first she does everything she can to escape him before letting up and stating that she lacks the confidence with Trolls that she has with plants. After Guy draws similarities between taking care of plants and parties, Meadow decides to give it a try.
Guy explains the 5 levels of partying. The party starts off as a "Bumping" party before he turns up, then moves onto "Jammin" when he shows up, followed by "Rager" once he gets started. After this comes "Thru Da Roof", in which Trolls form a troll hair and lift the partygoer up into the air to show off their majesty. The final level is "Out of Con-Troll" where every Troll's hair becomes a golden color; Guy has never achieved this level. He finishes and asks for any questions, to which Meadow says if going to bed at 6pm would be a problem and Guy sighs.
Guy puts together a practice party with his friends and tells Meadow to get out there and get the party started. Meadow speaks, but mumbles everything and no one can hear her until a megaphone is put in front of her. Guy admits defeat with her as she's too nervous and uncomfortable.
He later appears getting a coffee to keep himself awake; Poppy comments it's late for coffee. He sees the light come on to summon him. but it goes off almost as soon as it comes on. Smidge and Cooper tell Guy at the party that Meadow just showed up out of nowhere and started to lift the party. Meadow states that she figured out from Guy's parting speech to her that he was trying to boast her confidence. Guy plays along with this. People start making comments about her being better than Guy, and Poppy tries to ensure Guy that's not true. But then Meadow starts to move the party up a level and the Trolls from a hair chair.
Guy, out of jealousy grabs everyone's attention. The two begin a party competition with the Trolls going between the pair until Guy is exhausted and can't keep up. He gives up, but Meadow points out that the Trolls' hair have all turned Gold. Between them, the two have pushed the Trolls attending the parties to the highest level.
The two reconcile and then see another symbol in the air summoning "The Life of the Party". Meadow asks Guy if he still wants to take the night off. The pair head off to the next party together.
