Branch is explaining to CJ Suki, Priscilla and Keith the safety of squish ball so they avoid dangers. Poppy stops his lesson about the dangers before it goes too far off the rail with the risks, and he skips to the demonstration. He pats the gear Keith should be wearing and it falls apart, shocking him. Keith explains he took the safety gear off because it was getting too "protect-y". Priscilla criticizes the gear's color scheme, and CJ can't understand how she can dance in them. Branch pulls focus back on the safety side of things.
Branch decides that the easy Troll lifestyle has softened the children, and Poppy tries to cut out his safety seminar before Branch continues to go off the rails again. They have a whispered argument and Poppy tells him to stand down when he persists. She offers them snacks in the form of berries, but they criticize everything about them and don't eat them. Branch makes his point and states that he has an idea.
They are going camping. The kids groan about it, and Poppy suggests to invite Guy Diamond along as he makes everything fun. Branch flashbacks to a bunch of times Guy interrupted safety measures, turning everything into a party. Branch doesn't want Guy to come along.
15 minutes into the hike on their camping trip, the kids are tired. Poppy states that Branch will show how to make do without comforts, and Branch proceeds to make a kebab just by kicking a plant and a chair using a Grossum's tail to carve wood.
Later that evening, CJ admits camping is dope but notes that she'll deny it tomorrow. As Poppy congratulates Branch for getting the kids to like camping, they hear dance music. To his horror, Guy shows up and destroys their tent. Guy claims that he loves camping while Branch says his vehicle critter is not "camping", calling it "glamping". Branch tries to reel back in the camping trip, but Guy proceeds to attempt to outdo everything Branch does, with successful results.
Branch complains to Poppy that everything serious Branch does, Guy glitters up. Poppy admits Guy comes on strong but tells Branch to talk to Guy about it. Guy stops everything and says that they should be getting back to basics, proceeding to pull out a hot tub. This even gets Poppy to join in, and as Branch is left soaked, Branch decides he isn't going to let Guy ruin camping.
Branch gets everyone up early the next morning and states they are surrounded by Inst-Ivys, which could sprout up at any moment but they shouldn't look it up. Branch sets up a new site, but soon hears Guy moving to it. He calls that there are snakes, everywhere and force them to abandon the tent and run off. After running off, Poppy decides it's time to go home and the kids agree. Branch then realizes that they are lost.
A loud snorting sound attracts their attention, and Branch sees a Muck-Wallower, though he states it is fine. Despite saying they are harmless, he is knocked out by it. When he wakes up, Poppy screams at him that they were captured when he asks how they got inside its home. Branch doesn't understand what they want with them as they don't eat Trolls. The Muck-Wallower then uses the Trolls' hair to scrub himself clean to avoid going to bed dirty.
With the Muck-Wallower now asleep, the 5 Trolls attempt to escape. They fail as Guy finds them in his loud critter vehicle, with Guy thinking he had come to the rescue. Guy wakes the Muck-Wallower, who blocks off the entrance that Guy made. Poppy and Branch aren't happy, in particular the latter, who doesn't even know why Guy is there.
Guy claims he saw it drag them in and thought it was his chance to be the hero, but Branch says that he failed. In anger, Branch admits that he moves the campsite away from Guy, upsetting him. Branch continues by saying that he took the kids camping to get them to leave behind the comforts of the village and it was working until Guy "Guy-ed" it up. The others feel Branch is going too far, but Guy understands. He explains that as a Glitter Troll, and as the Glitter Troll, he's about living the high life and glamoring everything up. However, he's limited in what he can achieve and needs to embrace weird and different things. Branch's eccentricities offer Guy a chance to try new things and he often wants "in" on what Branch does for a reason, as there is nothing weirder and stranger than Branch; Guy claims that he is always trying to impress Branch.
The group's attention turns to the Muck-Wallower and Poppy states they're still blocked in while Priscilla notes the Trolls are a luxury the Wallower will not give up. Branch gives the Wallower Guy's glamping gear, and the Wallower immediately takes to his new luxury item. As the group leaves, Poppy turns off the light of the glamping gear, leaving the Wallower in darkness and ending the episode.

*"Glamping" is a real-world term. It's a portmanteau of "glamour" and "camping", and refers to modern-style camping wherein individuals camp out in the wilderness in luxury accommodations rather than a traditional style, combining the escapism feel of camping with the comfort of a hotel.
*Guy Diamond calls himself the Glitter Troll. Each of the Trolls family classifications were based on one of the movie's existing Trolls. In the case of the Glitter Trolls, the basis for their entire family had actually been Guy himself, and in some early media it was even suggested that he was the only Glitter Troll intended originally. Either way, Guy really is the Glitter Troll.
*Animals that wallow in mud are usually among the cleanest in the animal kingdom. The reason for wallowing in mud is to create a protective layer against the sun, as mud is a natural sunblocker, as well as protect against skin pests such as fleas. Mud is considered a natural healing agent due to its ability to seal wounds and has many minerals, though not all kinds of mud have the same benefits.
*In one scene, the pink heart-shaped button on Poppy's dress is missing.
