The following is a transcript for the episode "Clash of the Battle Piñatas".
== ==
(The book opens up to explain about the Battle Piñatas.)
Poppy: Once a year, Trolls build a showcase of beautiful giant Piñatas. Which smash each other until only one remains! (She talks in a male voice.) That’s right piñata thwakers! Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! After snack time! Gums eat candy-coated chaos! Clash of the Battle Piñatas! If you’re free! So did everyone else! Go to by the Funtime Factory! Glitter and sundaes, sundaes, sundaes! From TrollsTopia’s Premiere Ice Cream Shop! Be there! (She clears her throat and talks in her normal voice.) It’s gonna be super fun! (The crowd of Trolls cheers.)
Dante: Oh! Such destruction… Dante likey.
Poppy: Now remember, you only have one day to design and built your remote-control Piñata Bots! So find your teammates and… (She took out her microphone and talks in her male voice again.) GET THWACKING! (The Trolls run off to find their teammates. Poppy puts her microphone away and Branch is heard laughing. He gets up.)
Branch: Poppy! (He skips happily.) Oh, my Troll, can you even… It’s finally time for Battle Piñatas! (He takes out some blueprints.) With the tools and the engineering and the… (He laughs as he tosses the blueprints in the air. Poppy just looks at him.) Oh, every other Troll can have just portion and enthusiasm, but when I do it, it’s weird? (He frowns and folds his arms.)
Poppy: No, no. Branch, I love your Battle Piñata passion. I mean, during you bunker days, it was the only event you would come above ground for. And this year, you get to play with an actual team!
Branch: I had a team. (We go to a flashback to when Brach was building a Piñata with Gary.)
Past Branch: (Trying to lift a large blue piñata part) Lift! (Gary does not move.) I said lift, Gary! (Gary falls over and he grunts angrily. We then go back to the present.)
Branch: But yeah, I can’t wait to work with a team of Trolls. I mean, imagine how much more fun it will be to build a Piñata bot with friends. Plus, between you and me, Gary doesn’t always give 110%. (He hears slurping and sees Gary on a beach chair sipping a drink with a straw.) Really, Gary?! Another break?! Ugh! (Later, he is talking to his team. He has teamed up with Holly, Synth, and DJ Suki.) All right, team, Piñata Bot time! We have a lot of piñata to bot on. (chuckles) This is fun. So, how do we get started?
Synth: Well, seems like the obvious thing to do is share our design ideas, discuss their merits, and take immediate action.
Branch: Yes! My thoughts exactly. (Synth goes over to him.)
Synth: But the mind-blowing thing to do is have a rave! (DJ Suki and Holly cheer.)
Branch: Uh, what? Uh… (chuckles) What does a rave have to do with… anything?
Synth: Raves are all about unity, bro. About Trolls moving as one to the same beat. It’s the perfect way to do some… TEAM BUILDING! (He, Holly, and DJ Suki cheer.)
Branch: (As Synth has his arm around him) Oh, wow. Interesting to success. (He moves away from Synth.) Excuse me one second. (He goes over to Poppy.) Poppy, what’s happening? My team wants to spend Piñata building time going to a rave.
Poppy: Easy, Branch. Part of the fun of working with others is getting different perspectives. Just stay open and eventually the team will find the best idea. (She shows a book cover with Trolls building a Piñata.)
Branch: Yeah. OK, thanks. (He runs back to his team.) So hey, team, I’m totally open to everyone’s ideas. But is it the best idea to use that extremely limited time at a rave?
Synth: Gee, Dubstep, when you put it like that… (Later, He, Branch, Holly, and DJ Suki have a rave in Techno Lagoon.)
Synth, Holly, and DJ Suki: (While Branch just stays still) TEAM BUILDING! WOOOO-HOOOO! (Back in Pop Village, Branch talks to his team.)
Branch: OK, now time for some actual Piñata building.
Holly: Oh, yeah! Let’s start with some more association, y’all!
Branch: I’m sorry, what?
Holly: Brainstormin’ sugar! Just call out the first thing you think of.
Branch: Building our Piñata.
Holly: Piñata, Piñata. Yada… Yet!
Synth: Water!
DJ Suki: Techno Troll! (All of them gasp.)
All: Rave! (They go to Techno Lagoon to rave again and Branch stays still once more.) BRAINSTORMING! WOOOO-HOOOO! (Branch grunts. After that, they go back to Pop Village.)
Branch: OK. Now, in my design, I used a vent shield and a power thwaker ball. So it’s kind of a no-brainer.
DJ Suki, Holly, and Synth: Hm.
DJ Suki: It is impressive, Branch, but after all that raving, you know what kind of Piniata would be really great? (She and Holly build their Piñata Bot and fill it with candy. Later, they show the Piñata Bot shaped like a bear. Branch gasps and the Piñata Bot smiles and dances.)
Branch: We built a dancing Piñata?
DJ Suki: Yeah, we did!
Synth: Now, I know what you’re thinking, Dubstep. But don’t worry; It can do a lot more dances than that!
DJ Suki, Holly, and Synth: Yeah!
DJ Suki: Also, Branch, since you love Battle Piñatas so much, the team thought you should piolet it tomorrow.
Branch: Me? I have to piolet it? Uh… Get to piolet it?
Synth: Yeah, Dubstep! What do you say?
Branch: Uh… uh… (He watches the Piñata Bot dance with glowsticks.) Great. (The next evening, the event has started. Poppy is the host.)
Poppy: (Through the microphone) This is it, thwack enthusiasts. You fans of the pin-artial Arts, I give you your Battle Piñatas! (The crowd cheers loudly.) Give it out for… Mecha Dinkles! (A Piñata Bot version of Mr. Dinkles appears.)
Mecha Dinkles: Mew. (It falls over.)
Poppy: And at this corner, Thwacking Thunder! (A roller-skate Piñata Boy with a hammer appears.)
Lownote: Like Lownote Jones, this Piñata’s greatest strength is the power of cool. That and the big old hammer, baby! (He presses a button on a remote and a hammer appears. Then it hits the ground.) Ka-pow!
Poppy: And to my left, it appears to Dante’s team, whacking now to wake something deep inside. (A sawblade moves through the ground and reveals a Piñata Bot in Rocker-style. Dante appears in the mouth dressed in rock clothes and playing a guitar.)
Dante: Let’s destroy something beautiful!
Poppy: And over here… Wait. Where’s R and B’s Piñata? Huh? (A Piñata Bot shaped like a UFO appears. It shines light and plays music. The crowd cheers and a Classical Troll is swept away by the flying Piñata. Then it releases Rhythm and Blues.)
Rhythm and Blues: Hey! We’re here! (They give each other a high-five.)
Poppy: And finally, the Cuddle Bear! (The Cuddle Bear appears and stands up.)
Pop Troll #1: Woo-hoo! Cuddle Bear!
Branch: Ugh.
Holly: All right, Branch, best of luck! Break the leg! Piñata yada yada!
Branch: Uh… yeah, thanks, guys, but… uh, just FYI. Last night, I may have stayed up late and made some slight tweets to our Piñata Bot.
DJ Suki: Huh?
Synth: Huh? (Branch presses a button and the remote turns into a control desk. The Cuddle Bear turns into a crane with the head as the wrecking ball. Then it roars and the crowd cheers.)
DJ Suki: Wait, Branch, what happened to our Piñata, man?
Branch: Oh, no, that is our Piñata. I just gave it an additional mode. Victory Mode.
Synth: You mean it doesn’t dance anymore?
Branch: No, no. It absolutely does. That’s the beauty of it. It incorporates all our ideas into one. I’ll show you. (He goes to the control desk.) Let the Clash begin! (The Piñata Bots get ready to battle. As Poppy sings Let The Games Begin, some of the teams’ Piñata Bots get destroyed and candy come out.)
(Poppy)
Who’s gonna be the last one standing?
Who will rise up above the rest
And prove to be the best?
Let the games begin
Yeah, we play hard, play to win
And we give it all, give it all we got, yeah
Climbing till we reach the top
We play hard, play to win
So let the games begin! (The Cuddle Bear roars. Branch’s team and Rhythm and Blues are the only ones left.)
Poppy: (On the microphone) Whoa! An impressive performance by Team Cuddle Bear! (Branch and his team cheer.)
DJ Suki, Holly, and Synth: Woo-hoo! (The UFO Piñata hits the Cuddle Bear. Branch and his team gasp.)
Poppy: But don’t forget R and B! (Rhythm and Blues do fist bumps and give each other a high-five. The UFO Piñata continues to hit the Cuddle Bear.)
Branch: Oh, no! Oh, no!
Holly: Looks like we’re in trouble, Branch! Time for some dancing before it’s too late!
Branch: Dancing? Not now! Later! (The Cuddle Bear tries to hit the UFO Piñata, but it dodges and knocks the Cuddle Bear over from behind with a baseball bat.) No! (Rhythm and Blues wave to their UFO Piñata. Branch struggles to get the Cuddle Bear up again.) Get up! Get up!
DJ Suki: Branch, please! We might not get another chance to see it dance!
Branch: I’m sorry, I can’t!
Synth: Why not, Dubstep?
Holly: Yeah, why not?
Branch: Because, guys, this moment is too important for that, OK?!
DJ Suki, Holly, and Synth: Oh. (They become sad and Branch feels bad.)
Synth: Sorry, Dubstep. I guess we didn’t realize… you just wanted to do your own thing. (He, Holly, and DJ Suki close their eyes and turn around to leave. Branch looks at the eliminated teams celebrating their defeat with candy.)
Branch: Guys, wait.
Holly, Synth, and DJ Suki: Huh? (Branch changes the control desk back to the remote.)
Synth: Dubstep, what are you doing?
Branch: The thing our team made this Piñata to do: Dance! (His team smiles.)
Synth: Then get out there and win this one for the team, Bro!
Branch: Win with a dancing bear?
Holly: Mm-mm-mm. Correction: A dance-fightin’ bear!
Branch: Wait. Dance-fighting? (He gasps and changes the Cuddle Bear back to its original mode.)
Poppy: (amplified through microphone, offscreen) Uh-oh! What’s this?! Is the Cuddle Bear back for more?! (As the Cuddle Bear dances, it dodges the UFO Piñata’s attacks and dances to damage it. The crowd gasps in amazement.) A tank transforming into a dancing bear?! This is what Clash of the Battle Piñatas is all about! (The Cuddle Bear bows at Branch and his team. Then it dances while attacking the UFO Piñata some more. Soon, Branch makes it jump into the air. It kicks the UFO Piñata, destroying it and candy falls from the sky.)
Rhythm and Blues: Oh!
Branch, DJ Suki, Synth, and Holly: Ooh! (The audience cheers for the winning team. A jawbreaker hits a Pop Troll, knocking him over.)
Pop Troll #1: I’m OK!
Poppy: It’s over! Team Cuddle Bear wins! TEAM CUDDLE BEAR WINS!!!
Branch: You guys know what this calls for?!
All: VICTORY RAVE! (They run over to the Cuddle Bear and start raving with glowsticks. The eliminated teams join them and the camera zooms out.)
