(In her pod, Smidge is exercising.)
Smidge: 96. 97. 98. Come on, Smidge, put your follicles into it! (She pulls her band too hard, causing it to be sent flying. It bumps into a picture and it falls, revealing an old scrapbook.) Huh? (She picks up the book.) Oh, my Guh! (Outside, Poppy, Cooper, Satin, and Chenille are walking.)
Poppy: I wonder why Smidge wants us to come meet her. Her invitations are always a little light on details. (She opens the card.)
Pop-Up Smidge: Be here tomorrow, or else! I love you! I love you!
Smidge: Ladies and gentle-Trolls, behold the magical mastery of… (She appears on a big tree stump.) The Great Smidgini!
Cooper, Satin, and Chenille: Huh?
Poppy: Guys, cheer first, ask questions later.
All: Woo-hoo! (Smidge starts dancing and soon removes her cape. She then tosses her hat in the air.)
Poppy, Satin, and Chenille: Woo-hoo!
Cooper: Yeah!
Poppy: That was great! Uh… What exactly is it you’re doing?
Smidge: What I was born to do, Poppy. (She takes out the old scrapbook she found.) See, I found this old family scrapbook. Turns out I come from a long line of gifted magicians! (She shows the pages of her family.) My Great-Great-Grandma Bitsy could pull a bunny out of a hat!
Great-Great-Grandma Bitsy: Oh, my goodness!
Smidge: Great-Uncle Teensy could make Great-Aunt Weensy disappear!
Great-Uncle Teensy: Oh, my golly!
Smidge: Then there were my distant cousins Pinch, Puny, Puny Junior, Petite, Yea Big.
Pinch: Oh, my gracious!
Puny: Oh, my heavens!
Puny Junior: Oh, my word!
Petite: Oh, my-my!
Yea Big: Wow!
Satin: All magicians? I wish someone in my family was that interesting.
Chenille: Ah, nice zinger, sis.
Poppy: Smidge, I don’t understand. How is it that no-one told you this before?
Smidge: My parents aren’t big talkers. We’re more physical types. (She does some exercise.) Point is, I know now. And even though I never met them, it makes me feel close to my ancestors that we share this special gift.
All: Aw!
Smidge: I know, it’s super cute. (She chuckles and puts the old scrapbook away.) Now, who wants to see me do my first trick?!
Cooper: Yeah Whoooooo! (He and his friends sit down.)
Smidge: (Holding out a stack of cards) Behold! An ordinary stack of cards. And observe, nothing up my sleeves. (She rolls up one of her sleeves and more cards come out.)
Poppy: Um… (She chuckles and claps with Satin and Chenille. Smidge puts the cards away.)
Smidge: And for my 2nd trick, the bunny goes in the hat. (She tries to put a bunny in her hat, but it doesn’t fit and it hops on the hat and hops away after bouncing on her face.)
Satin and Chenille: Ooh! (Smidge puts her hat back on.)
Smidge: And now, two ordinary, interlocked rings. (She takes out two rings.) But when I say the magic words, they come apart. Trollcus Pocus! (Her trick doesn’t work.)
All: Ooh!
Smidge: TROLLCUS POCUS! TROLLCUS POCUS! TROLLCUS POCUS! (Her trick still doesn’t work.) I’ll be just a moment. (She reappears with a purple curtain in front of her. She can be heard yelling.) Don’t do this to me!
Poppy: Smidge!
Smidge: (Still struggling) TROLLCUS POCUS! TROLLCUS POCUS! TROLLCUS POCUS! (The curtain falls off and she is seen using a drill.)
Poppy: Whoa! Smidge! Easy! Easy! (Smidge angrily smashes her drill.)
Smidge: (groans) Oh, sorry. My family’s gift must have skipped a generation. Guess I’m not as close to my ancestors as I thought.
Poppy: Oh, no, no, no! That’s not it. It’s uh… (She picks up the rings.) It’s probably these rings. I bet they’re defective. (One of the rings falls and she and Smidge gasp.)
Cooper: Oh, wow! Now that’s a trick! Whoo! Smidge, you should do it like that ‘cause… Wow!
Poppy: Sorry, Smidge. I-I don’t know how I-
Smidge: It’s fine. Magic is lame, anyway. I quit! (She begins to cry, throws the old scrapbook on the ground, and runs away.)
Satin: Oh, we can’t let her give up. We’ve got to convince her to keep trying.
Poppy: Agreed. And nothing convinces a person to keep trying like a little taste of success. (Meanwhile, Smidge is still sulking about her trick fails. Suddenly, ground critters pop up from the ground.)
Critter #1: (singsong) Happy!
Critter #2: (singsong) Happy! (A mushroom pops up and Smidge lands on it.)
Mushroom: (singsong) Happy!
Smidge: No, not happy! Oh, my Guh. Learn to read your audience.
All: Sorry. (Smidge sees Poppy with Fuzzbert, Guy Diamond, Biggie, Cooper, Satin, and Chenille.)
Poppy: Ladies and gentlemen, Trolls of all ages, performing her 2nd show ever, The Great Smidgini! (Her friends clap.)
Cooper! Yeah!
Guy Diamond: Yaaaay!
Cooper: Whoo!
Smidge: Yeah, I’m not doing this. (She starts to leave.)
Poppy: Come on, Smidge. You were so excited to share a magical connection with your family. You don’t want to give up on that. You see… (She starts singing Keep On Trying.)
(Poppy)
When you feel like giving up, don’t
Just keep on trying
Don’t slow down until the finish line
And if you’re tired
We’ll cheer you on
And get you reinsp- (Smidge covers her mouth.)
Smidge: OK, I’ll do it! I just can’t handle a musical number right now.
Poppy: (Shaking her arms in the air) Yaaaay!
Smidge: Pick a card, any card. Then put it back in the deck. (Poppy picks a card with a heart and puts it back in the deck. Smidge then shuffles it and takes out a card with a spade.) Is this your card?
Poppy: Yeah! Yeah, it is!
Chenille: Yup!
Satin: You got it!
Cooper: She’s a witch!
Smidge: Really? Wow. I was barely even making an effort! How did I do that?
Poppy: See? If she struggles, we just help her believe she’s succeeding.
Chenille: But what about when we stop helping her and she struggles again?
Poppy: She’ll be encouraged enough from her success to keep going until, one day, she succeeds on her own.
Cooper, Guy Diamond, Satin, and Chenille: Uh… (Poppy jumps back on the mushroom with Smidge.)
Smidge: Hey, mind if I try a few more?
Poppy: Absolutely!
Smidge: And now, with but a wave of my wand, I will pull that bunny from my hat. (Poppy runs into a bush and picks up a bunny.) Trollcus… (The bunny kicks Poppy in the face. She then throws it into Smidge’s hat.) Pocus! (She takes out the bunny.) Yeah!
Cooper, Biggie, Guy Diamond, Satin, and Chenille: Swish! (Smidge is blindfolded and is about to throw an axe at a target. She fails to do so and her friends groan. Cooper gasps and puts the axe on the target.)
Guy Diamond: Wahoo!
Satin and Chenille: Yaaaaay!
Smidge: Yay! (She takes out her wand.) At my command, this Troll will disappear. (Guy Diamond gasps.) Trollcus Pocus! (Guy Diamond farts glitter and hides in a bush. His friends laugh.)
Cooper: Yeah!
Smidge: Whoa. I don’t believe it. That was amazing!
Poppy: Yep. No matter what failures come your way, from now on, you’ve just proved that you’re a natural magician, Smidge, just like your ancestors.
Smidge: Oh, this goes way beyond that!
Poppy: Good! Wait, what does that mean?
Smidge: My ancestors did tricks, but I just made Guy disappear and I have no idea where. There’s only one explanation. I have actual magic powers. Ooh!
Poppy: Magic powers? Uh… Smidge, we should talk about that.
DJ Suki: Poppy! Poppy! (The ground shakes and screaming Trolls appear.) Huge beast headed this way! It’s… a Kitty Critter! (A Kitty Critter jumps behind her and Poppy and meows.)
All: Aw! (The Kitty Critter picks at a pod and it falls.)
Cooper: See, that’s why I live in a mushroom. (The Kitty Critter breaks the roof of his mushroom.) MY MUSHROOM! (The Kitty Critter waves its paw at him and his friends.)
DJ Suki: Run for your lives! It wants to play! (The Trolls start screaming and running.)
Poppy: Everyone, to the high ground! (Smidge stays behind to face the Kitty Critter.)
Smidge: Hey! I’m warning you. You better scat, or I’ll use my magic powers! (The Kitty Critter stops playing with the pods and waves its paw at Smidge.) No! Don’t you do that. Don’t you do it! (The Trolls continue running to the high ground.)
DJ Suki: Uh… Poppy, we might have a Smidge problem.
Poppy: (gasps) Smidge! No, no, no!
Smidge: That’s it! Trollcus Pocus! (She points her wand at the Kitty Critter, but nothing happens.) Huh? Uh… (The Kitty Critter gets ready to play with her.) Abra-Troll-dabra! Trollakazam?
Poppy: NOOOOOOOO!!! (Smidge screams and tries to run away, but the Kitty Critter grabs her by the hair and takes her to its cave.)
Smidge: Let me down! Let me down! Let me down! (The Kitty Critter puts her down and she grunts. She then tries to run away again.) Oh, my Guh! (The Kitty Critter catches up and throws her against the wall of the cave. It then tries to play with her.) Oh, my Guh! Oh, my Guh! (The Kitty Critter throws into the air several times. It then gets ready to lick Smidge.) No. (The Kitty Critter licks her.) NOOOOOOO!!! (Poppy and her friends then come.)
Poppy: (whispers) Smidge? Psst! Smidge?
Smidge: Over here. (She is seen being hugged by the Kitty Critter.)
Poppy: Smidge, are you OK?
Smidge: No. I just found out I don’t have magical powers, the hard way.
Poppy: Yeah, um… about that… I was trying to tell you-
Smidge: What? That you tricked me into thinking I had magical powers?
Poppy: We weren’t trying to trick you. But yes. How did you know?
Smidge: You have a lot of time to figure things out when you’re stuck under a giant cat!
Poppy: I’m so sorry, Smidge. I just thought that-
Smidge: Uh… can we save the apologies for another time? (yells) Or does no-one notice I’m stuck under a giant cat?!
Poppy: Yeah, OK. Everyone, line up. (Her friends line up and grab each other with their hair.) And pull! (She and her friends manage to pull Smidge out of the Kitty Critter’s paw and they fall.)
Smidge: Ah!
Cooper: We did it!
All: Shh! (The Kitty Critter wakes up and they hide.)
Cooper: My bad. That one’s on me. (The Kitty Critter meows and sniffs.)
Poppy: It’s gonna smell us out!
Cooper: (gasps) What do we do?!
Smidge: What if we scared it off, using my magic powers?
Poppy: Uh… Smidge, have you not been paying attention the last few minutes? You don’t have-
Smidge: I know! Just listen. I have a plan. (Her friends come over to her and she whispers her plan. Soon, she stands up in front of the Kitty Critter.) Back away, adorable demon! (The Kitty Critter meows.) I’m warning you. Leave now, or I, The Great Smidgini, will unleash destruction with my magical powers! (The Kitty Critter meows and growls.) So be it. Trollcus Pocus! (A blast of glitter appears and she disappears.) Yoo-hoo! Over here! (Just before the Kitty Critter gets her, Guy Diamond farts glitter and she runs away.) Or am I over here? (She disappears in a blast of glitter again.) Or here?! (She disappears a 4th time.) No, here! Here! (She blows a raspberry and disappears once more. She reappears on a rock.) And for the grand finale, abra-Troll-dabra! (Suddenly, the cave shakes and her friends gasp. Rocks her seen falling down and that scares the Kitty Critter away.)
Guy Diamond: All right!
Poppy and Cooper: Whoo!
Poppy: Smidge, that was incredible. I think your ancestors would be impressed. (She gives the old scrapbook to Smidge.)
Smidge: I think they would be impressed, too, by all of us working together to make magic happen. Now, let’s go.
Chenille: Hold on. How did you do that last magic trick, with the cave shaking? That was amazing!
Smidge: Oh, you guys, you know a magician never reveals her secrets. (She puts her hat on and her friends laugh as they leave.)
Poppy: Oh, Smidge.
Smidge: (As she stops) But seriously, how did I do that last trick? (We go to the top of the cave and see two Bergens on top One is using a jump rope and the other is a coach.)
Bergen #1: That was your best record yet! (The other Bergen uses his jump rope that causes the cave to shake again and the episode ends.)
