Poppy cheers in Confetti-Fest and the Trolls celebrate all things pertaining to confetti, getting it everywhere. The Trolls play with the confetti and Smidge proclaims it is pure fun with no drawbacks.
She soon eats her words as it is cleanup time, and now the whole village has to clean up the confetti. Cooper, DJ Suki, Smidge and Guy Diamond are down about how long this will take. Poppy tells them to cheer up and make it fun. They try and make a obstacle course they have to run through, but it results in very little confetti cleaning. After 4 hours of setting up the game, they have cleaned one piece. DJ then realizes the solution - music.
She plays a mixtape she made, and the catchy song puts them in the mood. Soon, they have the confetti cleared. They then decide to continue to listen to the song while doing things. By the end of the day, they're all exhausted from partying and listening to the song all day. They go to bed.
Within moments of them all trying to sleep, they find out that they can still hear the song; it is now stuck in their heads. They go an entire night without sleep, as they can't get the song out of their heads.
Throughout the day as they go their business, they discover that everyone talking to them sounds like they're singing the song. Finally hearing them freak out, Poppy asks if everything is okay.
Poppy listens to the song, but when she wants to hear it again, the Trolls tell her not to or she'll be like them. They take them to Dr. Moonbloom, who tells them they are done for. Poppy then tries home remedies, but mixes up the fear one for hiccups. She tries negative reinforcement, and forces them to eat a onion cupcake every time they hear the song. This also doesn't work.
The group is about to give up when Poppy sings a song to cheer them up. This new song cancels out the old one, and they hear silence again.
Poppy is relieved that she helped her friends, but starts to hear her own song and realizes it is stuck in her head.

*An "ear worm" is a catchy tune that gets caught in someone's head, who then keeps thinking about it all day.
**As a side note, this is the problem with the Pop Trolls' music according to Trolls World Tour; it is common for them to produce music that does stick in your head, which is the kind that they like. Even though, this episode was written before the Trolls World Tour movie.
*The scene where DJ Suki makes the tape is a reference to the 1931 film Frankenstein.
*This is the only episode of the series in which Mr. Dinkles appears without Biggie.
*Boom Da Party plays during Confetti-Fest.
