(Poppy, Smidge, Holly, and some Trolls are playing a game of Troll, Troll, Bergen. Smidge is going around in a circle.)
Smidge: Troll, Troll, Troll, Troll...
Holly: Dang. Is it normal in Troll, Troll, Bergen to go 20 minutes without pickin’ a Bergen?
Poppy: No. But this is Troll, Troll, Bergen Deluxe.
Smidge: Troll, Troll, Bergen! (Holly gets up.)
Holly: Woo-hoo! (She and Smidge run around and jump over various things. Smidge then falls.)
Smidge: Oh, my Guh! Safe!
Funk Troll #1: Yay!
Pop Troll #1: Yeah!
Holly: All right, I’m it, y’all! (She goes around.) Troll, Troll, Troll, Tro- (She touches Poppy’s hair.) Oh! My stars! Poppy, your hair!
Poppy: Um, what about my-
Holly: Shh, shh, shh! (She feels Poppy’s hair.) The texture. The body. Ooh! The follicle integrity! Oh, Poppy, when it comes to hair stylin’, I consider myself a bit of an amateur professional. Will you let me do your hair?
Poppy: (Picking up her calendar) Let me check my calendar. Hm. No, doesn’t look like I’m scheduled to turn down the greatest idea I’ve ever heard! So, yes!
Holly: Ha-ha! Well, then buckle up, girl! (She spins Poppy.)
Poppy: Whoo! (She ends up on a chair.)
Holly: ‘Cause we’re about to put some woo-hoo in that ‘do! (As she does Poppy’s hair, she sings Back Home.)
(Holly)
Come on
Yee-haw! 
You’ll be pretty as a peach
When I’m thru with you
Gonna give my girl a down home ‘do
Imma do it up nice
Just the way we like
A little extra sugar
A little extra spice
I’m gonna brush it, gonna fluff it
Gonna get it standin’ up
Like we do back home
Like we do back home
I’m gonna lift it, gonna twist it
Set it with a final spritz
Like we do back home
Like we do back home
Like we do back home (Soon, she finishes Poppy’s hair.)
Holly: So, what do ya think? (Poppy looks up to see how big her hair is.)
Poppy: Wow! I mean, it’s so… big!
Holly: Oh, I know! Bigger than a Country Troll mile! (She takes out a mirror.) Don’t you love it?! (Poppy looks in the mirror and a bird lands in her big hair.)
Poppy: Holly, I… love it! (We cut to her showing her hair to Branch.)
Branch: You don’t love it.
Poppy: (As her hair wobbles) Oh… Not exactly! Ah! What I loved was enjoying some BFF bonding with her through hair care. Argh! (She falls over Branch.)
Branch: (Popping out of Poppy’s big hair) But you don’t love the hair. (He jumps out of the hair and Poppy cries.)
Poppy: Branch, it’s so big!
Branch: Poppy, not to get all “voice of reasony” on you, but it’s your hair. Style it the way you want.
Poppy: You mean undo Holly’s do? No. That would crush her.
Gust: Not to mention, you’d be chancing yourself a Holly Darlin’ Guilt Trip.
Poppy: Guilt Trip? (She gets up and straightens her hair.) What’s that?
Gust: The kinda trip where you ain’t gonna stop to pick out souvenirs. You see, Holly is particularly adept at making a Troll feel real guilty for wrongdoing. I once forgot to RSVP to her party. When she unleashed these six little words. (We go to the past where Holly is disappointed.)
Past Holly: I’m not mad. I’m just disappointed. (Gust screams and falls over. We go back to the present and Gust shivers.)
Poppy: Well, there won’t be any guilt trips or hurt feelings today. (Her hair starts to fall.) In time, I’ll simply grow to love my big hair. (She screams has her big hair causes her to roll. Soon, she is sitting at a table with Val, who is having a drink.)
Val: So, I’m like 90 minutes into this major jam sesh and I like, start feeling these emotions. (Poppy is heard grunting.) Like real, genuine feelings and… (Poppy falls over on the table.) Are you even listening to me?
Poppy: Yes! (grunts) Don’t stop now. (grunts again) Keep being vulnerable!
Val: (Getting up) Eh, we can talk about this later.
Poppy: No! Come back! (Her big hair causes the table to fall and break.) Open up to me! (Later, she sits to watch an orchestra.)
Minuet: Um… Poppy? You’re obstructing my view. (The camera zooms out to reveal more Trolls that can’t see.)
All: Mm-hm.
Poppy: Oh, sorry. (She gets up and starts to move.)
Pop Troll #1: Um, Poppy?
Poppy: Sorry.
Pop Troll #2: Uh, Poppy?
Poppy: Sorry.
Pop Troll #3: Excuse me, Poppy?
Poppy: So sorry.
Pop Troll #4: Poppy.
Poppy: Sorry! (She is sitting on top of a hill.)
Flower: Uh, excuse me!
Poppy: (Moving) Sorry.
Mushroom: (clears his throat) Can’t see.
Poppy: Sorry. (She moves again.)
Worm: Down in front! (Poppy sighs. Suddenly, her big hair causes her to roll and land in a chair Branch is sitting next to.)
Poppy: OK! My hair is just too big!
Branch: So you’re gonna get it styled the way you want and just tell Holly it was too big? Right? You’re gonna do what I said?
Poppy: Absolutely not.
Branch: (Throwing away his sunglasses) No, no, of course not.
Poppy: I can’t just change the hair or Holly will know I don’t like it. But if I were to tell her a freak accident happened, like I slipped on a banana cupcake, slid uncontrollably, and fell right into the mouth of a hair-eating Crunch Clover, I’d have no choice but to change it! Hm? 
Branch: So, you’re gonna lie to Holly?
Poppy: I’m not gonna lie. ‘Cause we’re gonna make that happen. For reals. (We show a Crunch Clover munching as Branch is holding a banana cupcake.)
Branch: Ugh. Well, that’s enough cupcake for me! Guess I’ll throw it wherever! (He throws his cupcake on the ground and Poppy steps and slips on it. Unfortunately, she doesn’t reach the Crunch Clover. She even fails to bring her hair into its mouth.) Ugh. Why don’t we just put the cupcake right next to the plant?
Poppy: Psh. Yeah, ‘cause that’s not suspicious. Take 2! (Soon, Branch throws another cupcake on the ground. Poppy slips on it and falls on her face.) Take 47! (Branch is lying down with yet another cupcake. He throws it aside and Poppy slips on it.)
Branch: Huh? (Poppy gets her hair into the Crunch Clover’s mouth.)
Poppy: We did it! (She falls over and puts her hands in the air.) Yaaaaay! (She goes to Country Corral to tell Holly.) And then the plant chomped the whole hairdo right off! (sighs) So, you see, Holly, that’s why my hair is back to normal. And not for any other reason.
Holly: Oh, no. Poppy, that… Ugh, that’s just awful. You loved that big hair!
Poppy: Mm. It was very big.
Holly: Well, don’t you worry. This ain’t your fault. (Poppy sighs in relief.) It’s the fault of whoever discarded that banana cupcake! And I’m gonna find ‘em. (She runs away at full speed.)
Poppy: Wait, what?! (She runs after Holly. Soon, she examines the fallen banana cupcake.) Gee, Holly, you don’t have to do this. I don’t think there’s any way to know who left that cupcake.
Holly: It was Branch! (She squeezes the cupcake.)
Poppy: Wha-?! 
Holly: See?! Right there on the wrapper! Oh, I’d recognize his adorable little fingerprints anywhere! Oh, that Branch is gonna get the guilt trip of a lifetime!
Poppy: But-
Holly: Hyah! (She takes off to find Branch.)
Poppy: No. No, no, no! (She chases after Holly. At Branch’s bunker, he is drinking a glass of water.) 
Branch: Mm. After a full day of trying to understand Poppy, there’s nothing better than a glass of finely aged groundwater seepage. You’ve earned this, Branch. You’ve earned this. (As he drinks his water, the elevator lands with Poppy quickly, causing him to drop his glass.)
Poppy: BRANCH! (She gets Branch off his chair.) She’s coming! You gotta get away! (She takes out a bag and throws some stuff in it.) Take only what you need!
Branch: What? Poppy, who’s coming? (Holly comes down on the elevator and Poppy gasps.) Huh?
Holly: I see you’ve packed yourself a bag, Branch. Fittin’, seein’ as you’re about to go on… a trip.
Poppy: Wait. Uh, Holly, let… let’s just talk this over.
Holly: Tell me, Branch. Do you have any idea how long it takes get really big hair?
Branch: Uh… I…I mean…
Holly: Course you don’t. You’re too busy havin’ yourself a good ol’ time, droppin’ cupcakes for Trolls to slip on, to even consider the commitment it takes to get really, really big hair. (She gives Branch an angry look, scaring him. Then she walks closer to him.) Poppy loved that hair, Branch. Poppy, tell him how much you loved that hair.
Poppy: I…
Holly: She loved that hair! And after years of bein’ nothin’ but a good friend, you repay her by takin’ that away?! (Branch falls onto his table and lands on the ground.)
Branch: Oh! Ugh! The guilt! So intense! (Poppy gasps in horror.)
Holly: Why didn’t you love the hair, Branch? Why?! (She stares at Branch again.)
Branch: Aah! I’m sorry that I made you mad!
Holly: Oh, Branch honey. 
Branch: Huh?!
Holly: I’m just disappoint- (Poppy stops her.)
Poppy: NOOOOOOOOO!
Holly: No?
Poppy: (sighs) I told Branch to drop that cupcake. So that I would slip on it.
Holly: Poppy? The architect of your do’s undoin’? But… but why?
Poppy: Because… I didn’t like the hair. (Holly gasps.) Sorry, Holly. It was just too big and I didn’t want to hurt your feelings. But now I realize that’s silly. I mean, we’re good friends. And when good friends tell the truth, it doesn’t hurt their feelings.
Holly: Well, actually, it does hurt my feelings. Real bad.
Poppy: Oh.
Holly: But, Poppy girl, sometimes feelings get hurt. I’ll get over that. It’s your hair. You’re entitled to style it however you please.
Poppy: Huh. Thanks, Holly. And yeah, I can style it however I please! (gasps) Maybe I’ll get a mohawk! 
Holly: Ooh, yeah. As an amateur professional, I’m gonna have to veto on that one. (She and Poppy laugh. Branch is seen panting while crawling on the ground.)
Branch: It’s so cold… it’s so cold…
Poppy and Holly: Branch! (They run over to Branch.)
Poppy: Oh, Branch, I am so sorry I got you guilt tripped. (Holly hugs Branch.)
Holly: Whoo! I got you good! Tell you what: I’m gonna find some way to make it up to ya. (Branch shivers. Later, Holly is styling his hair.) So, what do you think? (The camera zooms out to reveal Branch’s big hair.)
Branch: Well, Holly, unlike Poppy, I have no problem telling people exactly how I feel, so you better believe when I tell you… I love it! (A bird lands on his hair, causing him and Poppy to get rolled away. Poppy is heard screaming.)
