DJ Suki is rushing and finds Poppy and Guy Diamond. Gia Grooves needs them to fill in her place at the daycare center because she is having a bad hair day. It is revealed that Gia's hair is "mess-behaving" and grabbing other Trolls. It will take her the entire day to straighten it out. DJ asks Poppy and Guy if they want to help her take care of the Troll toddlers, and they happily state that they do.
At the daycare center, the toddlers are crying because they miss Gia Grooves. Poppy looks for something to take their minds off of Gia's absence and finds a scrapbook of old nursery rhymes. DJ Suki reads the first one, and finds that it is rather short. They decide to make up more of the story to entertain the Troll toddlers, but DJ struggles with the idea. Guy steps in and states that all they have to do is ask some basic questions like why did he jump the candlestick.
Guy makes up a story about himself. He is at Sky Toronto's Factory, where he constantly jumps over a candlestick. In this story Sky is Guy's father, who disapproves of him wasting time by jumping on the candlestick. Sky tells his son that he will be running the factory one day, while Guy states he dreams to jump on the biggest stage in Troll Village, the Madison Hair Garden; Sky doesn't take the dream seriously. Guy was on the verge of giving upon his dream, when Nova Swift appears and introduces herself as the Agent to the Stars. She wants to make Guy's candlestick dream a reality. Starting off jumping in the streets, Guy makes it to Madison Hair Garden, but there is a problem; the candlestick thinks Guy has been hogging the spotlight and is going solo.
Guy returns to the factory where he prepares to be taken seriously. Sky doesn't want Guy to call him "Dad" anymore - instead, he wants Guy to refer him as his biggest fan. Guy concludes that the one candle he wanted to jump all along was his father's heart.
Guy's story is too dramatic for the children, so Poppy takes her turn. Poppy has to come up with a story on her rhyme, and she begins a tale about a Troll who's unlocking a secret message as Little Troll Horner. The focus of her story was actually a super Spy known as "Agent Smidge", who receives a message to go after "Doctor Biggie", a Troll villain who has created the most danceable record known to Trollkind; if one hears it, they won't be able to stop dancing. Agent Smidge's team must infiltrate his home and stop him from using the record before it is too late.
She assembles "Trolly's Angels" which consists of "Smidge the Muscle", "DJ Suki the Tech", "Satin the Style" and "Chenille not part of this". At the party, DJ Suki switches her headphones to go undercover among the DJ booths. Satin uses Chenille to get up to Doctor Biggie's pod and Smidge checks on Biggie himself. At his pod, Satin looks for the record, but finds other large, flat round objects instead. She ducks as security inspects the pod. Despite finding Chenille, Chenille just says she's not part of this, and the security guard gives the all-clear. Satin gives the all-clear on Biggie's pod, and the story switches to DJ, who's looking for the record at the DJ booths. DJ gives the signal to Smidge, who goes to make her move.
Smidge finds Doctor Biggie playing cards, and asks him if he'll play a game of "Simon Says". He complies and she's soon calling out commands. He gets caught up in the game, and Smidge asks him to hand over the record; he complies and she runs off with it. As Trolly's Angels leave, Chenille attempts to stay as it's a good party, but is pulled away once again. The Angels save the village and Doctor Biggie was never able to throw a party again. Guy pulls up her claim about a Troll never being able to host a party again, which would be bummer territory.
Poppy wants DJ to tell a story, as she is desperate after her story failed to keep the kids happy. DJ is frightened of goofing up the story, but agrees. She has "Dickory, Dickory Dock". In desperation, DJ blurts out the reason a Troll was running up the clock is because it was running away from a pickle. DJ looks sad, as she said something goofy, but the kids start to laugh at the idea of a pickle running, and she continues. The pickle chases the Troll into a cave filled with ice cream cones, grumpy ones that sound like monkeys. Both find this hilarious, as did the pickle and the Troll's brother Fredrico the Cheese, who laughed so hard that he tooted a rainbow.
Poppy says the lesson DJ has learnt is that she can do things if she tried. DJ corrects the lesson as being that kids like nonsense. She tells the toddlers that Fredrico fell into brownies, making them continue to laugh, with Poppy and Guy also joining in. Fredrico then appears, saying that tickles his funny bone.
