The following is a transcript for the episode "R&B in R&D".
== ==
(At Sky Toronto’s factory, his assistant bursts into his office with many papers.)
Sky’s Assistant: Mr. Toronto, the numbers are in! Since TrollsTopia began, festivities have skyrocketed. The Funtime Factory can’t keep up with party demand.
Sky: Time to execute… The Backup Contingency. (He and his assistant take out a key. They turn the keys, and press a button. A huge discoball pops up and sends a signal to a male Troll watching from a tower. He paints a message and gives it to his bird. It then flies to Sky’s factory and gives the message to Sky’s assistant. He shows it to Sky and he throws it on the door.)
Poppy: (gasps) The Funtime Factory is hiring new Fun-ployees?! 
Sky: Works every time.
Poppy: You should totally hire R and B. As Funk scientists, they’d be perfect for Research and Development.
Sky: R and B and R and D. Hm. (He sits on his assistant’s hands.) I believe there’s a ring to that. Do you think they’d be interested?
Rhythm and Blues: Yes to the yes, we’re interested!
Rhythm: Was what we said in unison when we heard about this opportunity. 
Sky: Hm. Informative recap.
Blues: Sky, allow us to be frank. The idea of working at the Funtime Factory and seeing all TrollsTopia using inventions we designed…
Rhythm: It’s got me and my sister straight flipping out! Scientifically speaking.
Sky: Well, you seem like ideal Fun-ployees. (Rhythm and Blues jump up and down with joy.)
Rhythm and Blues: Whoo!
Sky: But you will have to complete a one week trial period here at the factory to be sure.
Rhythm and Blues: Hold up!
Blues: A trial period?
Rhythm: Aren’t our scientific resumes and general fabulosity enough? (She and Blues wrap their resumes around them like scarves.)
Sky: No, no, your fabulosity is in no way in question. But I must confirm everyone on staff is a good fit. In the past, we’ve had… incidents. (We go to the past.)
Past Sky: Mr. Glitterstone, welcome aboard. (We see that Tiny Diamond is in disguise.)
Past Tiny Diamond: We won’t let you down, fellow grown up! Glitterstone out! (He loses his balance.) Wah! (It is revealed that Keith and Priscilla helped him with his disguise. We then go back to the present.)
Sky: You have no idea how often that happens. Now, if you’ll follow me. (He presses a button and a dome of glass appears over him, Rhythm, and Blues.)
Rhythm: Hm. This is interesting.
Blues: All right! (The floor under the dome goes down to a lab.)
Sky: Here’s your lab. It has everything you need to start inventing. (The camera zooms out to reveal the lab.)
Blues: OK, I think we can work with this. (She and Rhythm look at the stuff in the lab.)
Rhythm: Will we have access to a glitter particle accelerator? 
Sky: No. But we did take the liberty of hanging this motivational poster. (He shows a poster.) 
Rhythm: OK.
Blues: Very motivational.
Rhythm: That’s cool.
Sky: Well, that lab is all yours. I look forward to hearing your innovative new ideas first thing tomorrow morning.
Rhythm and Blues: Tomorrow morning?!
Sky: Will that be a problem?
Rhythm: Not for this dynamite duo. What do you say, dear sister?
Blues: I say it’s about time for R and B to get R-in’ and D-in’! (She and Rhythm high-five.)
Sky: Hm, yes. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some… other matters to attend to. (We cut to him in his office.) I’m sorry, but we’re going to have to let you go. (It is revealed that he is talking to a baby.) Please, let’s not make a scene. (Back in the lab, Rhythm and Blues are writing on chalk boards.)
Blues: Stimulate the Party-thagorean theorem.
Rhythm: That checks out. (She and Blues switch places.)
Blues: Carry the infinity.
Rhythm: Carry on, dear sister. (She and Blue switch places again.) Carry on. (Poppy shows up.)
Poppy: Hello, my funky friends! Just dropping off some “good luck” lunches!
Rhythm and Blues: Aw!
Blues: (As she and Rhythm take their lunches) All the love helps, Queen P. We only have till tomorrow morning.
Rhythm: So we are working on something so inno-vatious, it’ll knock Sky Toronto’s non-existent socks off.
Blues: Yeah, you’re right! Sky’s imaginary socks! You’re on notice!
Poppy: Can I see what ideas you’ve got so far? (Rhythm and Blues show off their first invention.)
Rhythm: We created a speaker incapable of mixing every Tribes’ music into one song!
Blues: Observe. (She turns on the speaker and it plays music too loud. All the Trolls cover their ears.)
Pop Troll #1: HIT THE EVACUATION BUTTON! (A red male Pop Troll hits the wrong button.) THE EVACUATION BUTTON! NOT THE RUN AROUND IN PANIC BUTON!
Voice: Panic! Panic! Panic! Panic! (Poppy, Rhythm, and Blues watch from the balcony. Another red male Pop Trolls runs in and they all scream. We then cut back to the lab.)
Blues: OK, maybe we hustled on that idea a little too much. But we also have the groove-a-tronic funk-electric Dance Pants! (A pair of Dance Pants appears. Poppy gasps in amazement.)
Rhythm: You wear the pants, they make you dance. (Poppy jumps into the pants. Blues presses a button, making the pants move. Poppy starts dancing and laughs.)
Poppy: Yeeeaaaah! (laughs) Look at me! This is fantastic! (The Dance Pants turn red, making Poppy dance faster.) Um… (Poppy moves very fast around the lab.) Aah! What’s wrong with these things?!
Blues: There’s glitches in the stiches! Look out! (Poppy accidentally hits the evacuation button.)
Voice: Panic! Panic! Panic! (All the Trolls scream again. Soon, Rhythm and Blues are roller skating back and forth. Poppy is seen sitting on one of their science tables.) 
Blues: We need more time, R. If we present these flawed ideas to Sky, it’ll be the end of our trial week and our new dream jobs!
Rhythm: Yes. I’m feeling rushed, too, dear sister. But one of our ideas is bound to work like our Robot Party Butler, anit-gravity confetti, and anti-matter piñatas! We will keep on keepin’ on!  (She holds out a fist and Blues gives her a fist bump. Then they sing Work It.)
(Rhythm and Blues)
Never quit, don’t stop
Just take shot after shot 
Don’t give in, no
Give it everything you got
Never sleep, keep it moving
Just work to the beat
And keep ideas A-groovin’
Hoo!
Work it, work it, work it
Till you can’t no more
Work it, work it, work it
Till you hit the floor
We got that non-stop
Never give up
Till you hit the spot
Work it and work it
And work it
Yeah, we work
Till we can’t no more (They show their creation to Sky.)
Sky: Welcome, R, B… and Poppy. (Poppy waves at him.) Who I can only assume is here for moral support because you consider these Trolls sisters from another mister?
Poppy: Uh… actually, yeah.
Sky: Proceed. 
Rhythm: Sky, we proudly present the next evolution in party-phernalia…
Rhythm and Blues: Discbal… (They blow up balloons that look like discoballs.) …loons!
Sky: (gasps) Well, I’ll be Bergened. This is exactly what the Funtime Factory needs. (Poppy, Rhythm, and Blues cheer.) But there’s a problem.
Poppy, Rhythm, and Blues: Say what?
Sky: Rhonda Sparkleman from fun-counting pitched me the exact same idea five minutes ago. (He shows Rhonda Sparkleman next to him.)
Rhonda Sparkleman: Just happy to be part of the team!
Rhythm and Blues: Say what?!
Sky: Not a problem. (He puts his legs on his desk.) I’m sure a pair of energetic Funk scientists like yourselves have dozens of other ideas. Right?
Rhythm and Blues: Uh…
Sky: Right?
Rhythm: (Gritting her teeth) What do we do? None of our other ideas are ready yet.
Rhythm and Blues: Uh… uh… uh… (Blues takes out the Dance Pants.)
Blues: We’ve got Dance Pants!
Rhythm: You wear the pants, they make you dance!
Sky: (As his assistant carries him to Rhythm and Blues) Hm… Now, I can see they’re Groove-a-tronic. But are they Funk-e-lectric?
Blues: Mm-hm. Mm-hm.
Rhythm: Oh, yeah. Mm-hm, mm-hm.
Blues: Yep That, too.
Sky: Well… consider my non-existent socks knocked off.
Rhythm: All right!
Blues: I told you, socks!
Sky: Nice job, you two. I’m going to show these to production right away. (He presses a button and a dome of glass covers him and takes him down.)
Rhythm and Blues: YES!
Poppy: R, B, those pants… Why didn’t you tell Sky about the glitches?
Blues: We can’t, Poppy! If Sky knew our remaining ideas have glaring flaws, it’s good-bye dream job!
Rhythm: But don’t worry; we should have plenty of time to de-glitchify the Dance Pants.
Blues: You’re right. They can’t get these pants into production right away. (A microphone appears.)
Sky: (Through the microphone) Attention, Fun-ployees. We’re getting Dance Pants into production right away. (The workers cheer.)
Rhythm and Blues: They can do that?! (The workers start producing Dance Pants and put them in flying trucks.) They can do that! (The flying truck drops off some of the Dance Pants. Some Trolls try them on.)
Pop Troll #1: Free pants! Oh, yeah!
Pop Troll #2: Look at those pants! (We then show Holly in Dance Pants.)
Holly: Wooooo-hooooo! (Suddenly, the pants go out of control.) There’s glitches in the stitches of these britches, y’all! (Demo’s Dance Pants are also out of control.)
Demo: Aah! (He screams in terror because a creature is getting ready to eat them. Poppy, Rhythm, and Blues watch in horror.)
Blues: We’ve gotta stop those pants!
Poppy: Uh, the only thing that stops me from dancing is an undanceable song!
Rhythm: It won’t work! We programmed them to dance to any song at any time! (She and Blues gasp.)
Blues: But can they dance to all the songs… 
Rhythm: At the same time?
Both: Mm-hm. (They start building a huge machine with huge speakers. Blues then presses a button and many songs play at the same time. This causes the Dance Pants to go back to normal. Demo sighs in relief for a moment, but the creature grows bigger and chases him.) 
Poppy, Rhythm, and Blues: Phew! (Sky is heard clearing his throat and the girls turn around to see him on a Flyer Bug. Rhythm and Blues chuckle nervously and we cut to Sky’s office.)
Sky: R, B, I’ve had a lot of surprises from new employees in my day, mostly that they’re small children in flimsy adult disguises, but I have never seen anything like this. Why didn’t you tell me about the problems with the Dance Pants?
Rhythm: Sorry, Sky. We just didn’t want to lose our chance to work here.
Blues: So we tried to keep you from finding out some of our inventions had flaws.
Sky: Well… of course they have flaws. 
Rhythm: Say what?
Blues: What up now?
Sky: There are always problems in the creative process. Do you have any idea how many explosions we’ve had with our Disco Balloons? How do you think Rhonda Sparkleman lost her eyebrows? (He shows Rhonda Sparkleman with her face burnt.)
Rhonda Sparkleman: Still happy to be part of the team!
Sky: All I ask is that next time you bring the defects to my attention so that we can work togetherto give TrollsTopia our best.
Rhythm and Blues: Next time?!
Sky: Of course! We can’t lose our two most impressive innovators. Welcome aboard! (Rhythm, Blues, and Poppy cheer.)
Poppy, Rhythm, and Blues: We did it!
Sky: (Putting his legs on his desk) Ah… I haven’t this excited about a new employee since we hired you, Sparkleman. (It is revealed that Rhonda Sparkleman is a baby Troll in disguise.)
Baby Troll: Shh. (It giggles and the episode ends.)
