(We show Lownote’s feet as he walks and hums.)
Lownote: Oh, yeah. (He meets up with Poppy and Val.)
Poppy: Whoa-ho-ho, Lownote. Looks like someone’s got a little extra groove in their step today? And why, pray tell, is that?
Lownote: Well, since you asked, it’s ‘cause today is my birthday. But given that you’re the Troll who makes a big deal out of every TrollsTopian’s birthday, I think you know that already.
Poppy: Oh, you know I do. (She and Lownote high-five and laugh. After he leaves, Poppy screams.) I had no idea it was his birthday! 
Val: What?! 
Poppy: Oh, man! I have nothing planned for him. Not a Lownote-themed treasure hunt or comprehensive slideshow of his most cherished memories or anything!
Val: Hold on! How did you of all Trolls forget a birthday?
Poppy: I don’t know. The Funk calendar is very complicated. (The calendar reveals numbers and shapes.)
Val: Hey, according to this, I’m 5,000 in Funk Years. That’s fun. (Poppy puts the Funk calendar away.)
Poppy: OK. Before the day ends, we are just gonna throw an amazing surprise party for Lownote! And yes, I said “we,” as in you and me. Welcome to friendship, Val! 
Val: But I have plans to- (Poppy picks her up.)
Poppy: Move, move, move! (She and Val get invitations ready for Lownote’s birthday party. They add glue and glitter to them. Soon, they are finished.)
Both: (Giving each other a high-five) Yeah! (Later, they are carrying the invitations in four big bags.)
Poppy: Whoo! Great job, Val! We made these invitations at a record pace!
Val: Yeah, but the party is today. How are gonna deliver all these that fast? (An eagle’s shadow moves by and we see Gust.)
Gust: Y’know, if’n you aim to get them invitations delivered fast, we Country Trolls have a right reliable delivery service. A venerated institution run by Trolls of integrity and fine repute. (At Country Corral, he shows a delivery service place.)
Poppy: The Puffalo Express? Oh. You meant yourself. (Gust chuckles.) Gust, you really think you can get our invitations delivered before party time?
Gust: Poppy, as a solemn carrier in our sacred order, once I receive a parcel, I am sworn by the Puffalo oath to deliver it to its destination on time, no matter what.
Poppy: Really? Even in the rain?
Gust: Yes. 
Val: Heat?
Gust: Yes.
Poppy: Gloom of night? 
Gust: That’s a weird thing of saying it, but yes.
Poppy and Val: Whoa!
Gust: That’s how it was done with my daddy before me and his mama before him. They never failed a delivery. And neither shall I on this day if you’re so inclined.
Poppy: Yes, Gust. Consider my cline all in.
Gust: Excellent! (He takes out a triangle.) I’ll assemble my team! (He plays the triangle and Holly jumps in.)
Holly: Woo-hoo! We’ve got ourselves a good ol’ fashion mail deliverin’, y’all! (Poppy and Val gasp and give the invitations to Holly. She then puts them in the carriage and jumps in.)
Gust: Hyah! (The carriage takes off at full speed.)
Poppy: There they go. One invitation to Lownote’s surprise party for every single Troll in TrollsTopia.
Val: Yep. Well, every Troll except Lownote, right?
Poppy: Uh… (We go to the past where she and Val are getting the invitations ready.)
Past Poppy: One for Dante, one for Synth, one for Lownote Jones… (We go back to the present and Poppy and Val gasp.)
Val: We sent Lownote Jones an invitation to his own surprise party?! 
Poppy: We’ve got to catch Gust! (She and Val start running.)
Val: Wait! Don’t go!
Gust: Hyah! (Holly is throwing the invitations on top of the carriage.)
Holly: Puffalo Express, y’all! Heads up! Comin’ at ya! (Some Trolls catch the invitations.)
Pop Troll #1: Yay!
Pop Troll #2: Wow!
Poppy and Val: Gust! Gust!
Gust: Whoa! (The carriage stops.)
Poppy: There’s been a mistake. We accidentally sent an invitation to Lownote Jones.
Gust: A surprise party invitation to the surprised? My, my, ain’t that just a prickly pear in your piñata.
Poppy: Yes, there’s really no other way to describe it. (She goes to get Lownote’s invitation.) So, I’ll just grab it from the Funk bag and- (Gust closes the carriage door with his hair.)
Poppy and Val: Huh?
Gust: Poppy, I told you: Once I receive a parcel, I am sworn by the Puffalo oath to deliver it to its destination no matter-
Val: Ugh! Yes, you told us! It was very dramatic! But can’t you just make an exception?
Gust: No, I cannot. To do so would fail the legacy of all the Express Trolls in that came before me. Ladies. (He makes the carriage move again.)
Val: Great. The second Lownote sees that invitation, his birthday is ruined. What do we do now?
Poppy: The only thing we can do: Take that invitation back. (She puts a pink mask over her mouth.)
Val: You chose a bandit mask that’s color coordinates with your outfit?
Poppy: Yeah. And I have one for you, too. (She takes out a red mask from her hair.)
Val: Oh! (She puts on the mask.) 
Both: Grr! (Soon, they are hiding under the carriage.)
Poppy: See, Val? Now wherever Gust goes, we go. And the moment he lets his guard down, that invitation is ours. (Holly takes out a map.)
Holly: Hm. You know, Gust, we’d make better time if we turn left here through that field of tickle grass.
Poppy and Val: Tickle grass?!
Gust: Hyah! (The carriage turns left and heads to a field of tickle grass. Poppy and Val struggle not to laugh but fail.)
Holly: No. We should’ve cut right through the tickle grass.)
Poppy and Val: What?!
Gust: Hyah! (The carriage turns right. Poppy and Val fall off it laughing.)
Poppy: Hey!
Val: I am so frustrated right now!
Poppy: I’m furious! (She and Val continue laughing. Soon, they are in the desert.) Well, I didn’t think it would come to this. But we have to do something extreme. (Val sees the carriage pass by and onto a train track. She signals Poppy to pump a bomb under the train track. They cover their ears to muffle the explosion. The fire reaches some fireworks on the tracks and they explode in the air. Holly and Gust gasp in amazement.)
Holly: Woo-hoo! Those fireworks are somethin’ else!
Gust: They’re so extreme! (Poppy goes inside the carriage and takes Lownote’s invitation. She then goes back to Val.)
Val: You did it, Popsqueak. It’s over.
Poppy: Correction, Val: Once I tear this invitation up so that Lownote never sees it, then it’s over. (She sees that it is not Lownote’s invitation. It is actually a note from Gust.) “Dearest Poppy, apologies for the ruse, but this is a decoy invitation to distract you whilst we finish our delivery. Hugspectfully yours, Gust.” (She and Val gasp. We see that the carriage is getting closer to Vibe Town.) No! They’re headed for the Vibe Town Spaceship!
Both: Lownote! (They whistle and two Saddle Spiders come to them. They get on them put masks on them.) Hyah! 
Poppy: Giddyup!
Val: Hyah! (Holly and Gust seen her and Poppy coming.)
Holly: We got company.
Gust: Best lose ‘em in the South Plains of Country Corral.
Holly: The South Plains? But that’s where they’re havin’ the Glitter Dodgeball Tournament!
Gust: I know. (Meanwhile, Smidge and some Trolls from the different Tribes are having the Glitter Dodgeball Tournament.)
Smidge: I’m callin’ you out, Haystack Wiggins! Make your move!
Haystack: Thank ya kindly, but I respectfully insist you make yer move first. (He and Smidge stare at each other.)
Gust: (offscreen) Hyah! 
Smidge: Ah! (She sees Gust on the carriage.)
Gust: Hyah! Come on!
Haystack: Aah! (He drops is glitter ball.)
Smidge: Aah! (She throws her glitter ball and it hits Haystack.)
Classical Troll #1 and Rock Troll #1: Oh! (The carriage, Poppy, and Val pass the flying glitter balls. Poppy and Val then sing Come Out On Top.)
(Val)
Whoa
(Poppy)
Yeah!
Gust: Hyah!
(Poppy) 
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
You can’t run
‘Cause I get what I want in this town
Oh!
Yeah, Imma ride into the storm
No, I won’t be backing out
No pouring rain or hurricane
Ain’t never gonna slow me down
Said Imma ride into the storm
Smidge: I’m out! (She falls over.)
(Poppy)
I’ll be coming in red hot
Got a fire inside 
It’s burnin’ high
And I won’t ever stop
‘Cause when the stakes are high 
It’s do or die
And only one Troll
Can come out on top
Oh, oh
Can come out on top
And only one Troll
Can come out on top
Gust: I’m sorry, Poppy. But nothing can stop the Puffalo Express.
Poppy: Maybe not. But I bet I can slow it down. (She takes out some tickle grass.)
Gust: Tickle grass?! (Poppy throws the tickle grass at him and he starts laughing. This causes the carriage to fall over.) It’s… it’s so dern tickly! (Poppy picks up Lownote’s invitation.)
Poppy: Got it! This party is still a surprise! (Poppy starts to tear up the invitation.)
Gust: No! Please.
Poppy: Sorry to give you so much trouble, Gust, but it’s really important that the party not get spoiled.
Gust: (sighs) I understand, Poppy. Well played. (sighs again) Still, I’m gonna have to get used to the fact that I’m the first Puffalo Express Carrier to not complete a job. The first to break the oath.
Poppy: The first to break the oath? (She looks at Val.) Actually, Gust, here.
Gust: What-? You mean?
Poppy: Yeah. Making a big deal out of Lownote’s birthday is really important to me, but I’ll get another chance next year. What matters more is that you finish this delivery… no matter what. (She gives Gust Lownote’s invitation.)
Gust: Poppy… I thank you and the legacy of the Puffalo Express thanks you. (He picks up the bag of invitations.) Puffalo Express! (Vibe Town beams the invitations aboard. Poppy and Val sigh.) Of course… now that my duty is fulfilled, I am no longer Gust the mail carrier.
Val: Huh? 
Gust: I’m just Gust your friend, which means I can help you get that invitation back before Lownote reads it!
Poppy: Wait, Gust, are you saying?
Gust: I’m sayin’ we take that invitation back. (She and Holly put on masks and growl. Poppy and Val also growl. Then they get ready to go to Vibe Town to get the invitation back.)
All: YEE-HAW!
