The Trolls try to entertain Archer Pastry with a series of Troll stories.
== ==
Having not made much progress with Archer, Poppy decides to win his friendship with stories on Troll culture. Archer is unsurprisingly not thrilled. Keith tries to tell a story but is told that the safety of the village is at stake, so he will have to wait until another time.
First Troll to volunteer to tell a story is Biggie. The tale features the warrior Bigeleus (played by Biggie) whose best friend was the most beautiful creature in the world - Mr. Dinkules (played by Mr. Dinkles). Unfortunately, due to how good-looking Dinkules is, he was captured by spiders and Bigeleus vows to get him back.
Bigeleus summons the fiercest Troll Warriors he knew: Poppyseus the blade expert (played by Poppy) and Branchilles (played by Branch), who was invincible except for his one weakness, his heel, which made him completely useless.
They begin their war against the spiders by launching the deadliest weapon known to troll kind - a confetti bomb. The Trolls realize their pretty bad at war. Branchilles declares he will save the day only to hurt his heel again. Coopericles (played by Cooper) vowed to sneak in and infiltrate the Spiders dressed as one. Instead of success he ends up marrying one of the causing the Trolls to have to go back to the drawing board.
The Trolls try to use a giant wooden worm to get inside, the spiders realize the Trolls are just hiding inside. When the spiders, plus Coopericles, go inside the worm, they are imprisoned as the Trolls weren't inside, they were outside waiting for them to go inside.
And so Bigeleus and Mr. Dinkules live happily ever after. They presume Coopericles also did the same but Biggie notes they never saw him again, as Bigeleus had sent the giant wooden worm rolling far away off a cliff.
Archer is not impressed with Biggie's story and thus Guy is up next. Guydas (played by Guy Diamond himself) was a ruler who loved glitter. One day he prayed to the heavens for all the glitter in the world. The heavens (Cloud Guy) respond by granting Guydas the ability to turn everything he touched into glitter. Guydas went around and starts converting things into Glitter. Eventually he gets a piece in his eye, which causing him to panic as he didn't want to touch himself. He gets the glitter out of his eye but while congratulating himself pats himself and becomes glitter. After Cloud Guy mocks him for being so foolish, Guydas reforms himself into a Glitter Troll.
Archer is once again unimpressed with the Troll's story. Keith begins his own story. He tells the story of Icarus (played by Keith), a kid with the coolest ideas. He came up with a method to fly. This catches the eye of Bigeleus and Poppyseus from the earlier stories, and Poppyseus warns that he shouldn't fly too close to the sun.
Icarus flew past the sun and jumped into hyperspeed. He emerged in the middle of a battle between Lord Badguy (played by Branch) and an unknown force. One of the Spiders on board his ship notes a kid with really cool ideas has appeared. Lord Badguy states they're on a quest to destroy all cool things, and therefore the kid must die. When Icarus tries to flee, Lord Badguy proves too strong and a random laser fire hits one of his wings. Icarus crashes onto a Strange and murky land.
The story begins to skip as Keith tells a long and over the top story about Icarus' adventures. Including a part where he defeated his evil twin twice. Finally he faced off against Lord Badguy, only for Icarus to be told that Lord Badguy is his father. He ends the story with a loud "noooo" and says "To be continued".
The story leaves everyone in suspense, including Archer. The shouting attracts Branch, who enters the Fun Dungeon and pulls his heel just like Branchilles.

This episode is available on the "Trolls: The Beat Goes On! - Complete Seasons 1-4" DVD.

*This episode is a sequel to "Trolly Tales", which is the second part of the "Trolly Tales" installment.
*Biggie's story is a reference to the epic, The Illiad, while the Trojan Horse is just added from a poem that takes place after the epic, and Guy's to King Midas. Keith's starts off as a story referencing Icarus, and finishes on a Star Wars reference, including a nod to The Empire Strikes Back, in particular the scene where Darth Vader told Luke Skywalker he was his father.
*In Keith's story, Cooper appears as a reference to C-3PO. While no character was shown to represent him, Icarus' mentor was mentioned which was a reference to Yoda. The deal with the Bounty Hunter is a reference to Boba Fett. Lord Badguy is a reference to Darth Vader, while Icarus is based on "Luke Skywalker", which is a play on words due to the fact that in Keith's version, Icarus never died when flying and thus is a "skywalker". Keith's story ending with a "Noooo" is a reference to Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, specifically the final scene where Darth Vader is shown the price of his rage and shouts "Nooooo!".
*Other references are Dinkules to Hercules, Poppyseus to Odysseus, and Branchilles to Achilles. Dinkules takes the place of Helen of Troy as hostage in Biggie's story. Coopericles replaces Antenor, who in the original story of the Trojan left the gates open to the city and thus had his life spared. "Coopericles" is likely a play on the Greek statesman Pericles. Bigeleus is likely a reference to Menelaus.
*All 3 stories start off referencing Greek mythology, whereas the first part "Trolly Tales" was mostly based upon European fairytales.
*Guy's outfit from his "Guydas" tale appears in the DreamWorks Trolls Pop app as an unlockable outfit.
*The Trolly Tales 2 universe was confirmed to be a real universe in "Wormhole", this is the only example of a fictional universe turning out to be real thus far in the series.
