The following is a transcript for the episode "A Flower For Poppy".
== ==
(Branch is sleeping in his bed with Gary. Suddenly, Poppy holds out a tambourine and shakes it, waking him up.)
Poppy: SURPRISE! (Branch screams, kicks a pillow, and pretends to fight.)
Branch: Poppy, how did you get in here?
Poppy: Smidge let me in. She’s been hiding in here for two days.
Smidge: (Popping up) Under your bed! (coughing) We need to talk about your dust bunny situation.
Branch: We need to talk about boundaries. Why are you two here?
Poppy: To celebrate your quarter birthday. Halfway to your half birthday! (She holds out a purple present.)
Branch: What? (He opens the present and sees a dirty stuffed crocodile.) Crocko? I-I can’t believe it. (He takes out his toy.) But he was lost during the escape from the Bergens. Where did you…?
Poppy: Buried in the tunnels outside Bergen Town.
Branch: Poppy, this is… unbelievable. (He hugs his toy.)
Poppy: No, it’s just a week’s worth of digging for a friend. Anyway, I got to go. It’s the 4th-day anniversary of Harper’s 10th art show. Enjoy! (She leaves Branch’s room.)
Branch: Aw. Crocko… (Smidge waves her hand in front of his eyes.)
Smidge: Uh-oh. Poppy Present Syndrome. First comes the overwhelming joy.
Branch: This is the most amazing gift I’ve ever received.
Smidge: Then comes the crushing gift.
Branch: No gift I ever give her could live up to this.
Smidge: Tell me about it. I mean, actually tell me about it… at the Poppy Present Support Group. (Outside, Branch and Smidge are with Biggie, Mr. Dinkles, Satin, and Chenille.) Hey, guys, I have someone here who would like to share.
Branch: Hi. My name’s Branch, and I received a gift from Poppy.
All: Hi, Branch.
Branch: (sighs) I mentioned Crocko once, six months ago, in passing. How did you remember that?
Biggie: Oof! So personal.
Branch: I know. And now her half birthday is almost here. What chance to mere Trolls have against thoughtfulness of this magnitude?
Satin and Chenille: We’ve been there. (We go to the past where they received a gift.)
Past Satin and Chenille: Ooh!
Past Satin: A conjoined sewing machine! We can both sew at the same time!
Past Chenille: Or you can sew and I can fix your mistakes. Just kidding. No-one can fix her mistakes. (Satin grunts and we go back to the present.)
Biggie: And I know I’ll never measure up to what she did for me. (We go to the past where Poppy made him a Mr. Dinkles costume.)
Past Biggie: I am so fulfilled!
Past Biggie and Mr. Dinkles: Meep. (They both fall over and we go back to the present.)
Smidge: Then there’s the gift she gave me. (We go to the past where she is grunting excitedly.)
Past Poppy: Ready? (She takes out a trophy.) Best friend forever. (Smidge takes the trophy and grunts happily.)
Past Smidge: Oh, my Guh. I know just where to put this! (She runs over to her trophy collection, accidentally knocking them over and puts the trophy on it. She kisses it and we go back to the present.)
Branch: Guys, we are not gonna come up short this time. Someone has to have an idea for a gift Poppy would like.
Smidge: (gasps) I’ve got just the thing. (She pulls a string and a piñata of Poppy appears.) The Poppy piñata!
All: Huh?
Smidge: See, we give Poppy a stick, and then… (She smashes the piñata and candy comes out while the others gasp.) Oh, my Guh. What was I thinking? (The head of the piniata falls and the other Trolls gasp again.)
Biggie: Guys, we could give her a group gift.
All: No!
Satin: Then we’re each just giving her a fraction of a gift! That would be like someone only saying a fraction of “I love you.”
Chenille: I lo-
Biggie: (Hugging Chenille) Finish it! (He lies down and sobs.) You’re right. Group gifts are the worst.
Branch: Guys, it’s gonna be OK, but we have to focus. It’s not like the perfect gift idea is gonna fall out of a tree. (DJ Suki falls out of a tree.)
DJ Suki: Guys, I’ve got the perfect gift idea! (As she talks about what happened, we go to the past.) See, I was at the market, eating a sandwich, when I overheard Poppy talking to the florist.
Past Poppy: You’re sure you don’t have any? I only saw them once when I was little. They were the most beautiful flowers I’d ever seen. I’d give anything to have them again.
DJ Suki: So that’s when it hit me. (We go back to the present.) What if we gave her a sandwich?! (Her friends remain silent.)
Branch: DJ, you’ve got it.
All: Huh?
Branch: No, no, no. Not the sandwich. We could all go find the flowers.
All: Ooh!
Chenille: I’ll give her a bouquet in a vase!
Satin: I’ll weave some into a crown!
Smidge: I’ll also make a personalized gift.
Biggie: But how do we know which kind of flower she means?
Satin: We need to ask someone who knows everything about Poppy. (The next day, the Snack Pack goes to Peppy’s pod.)
Peppy: Ah, yes. I remember it like it was yesterday. I woke up, had a cupcake-flavored muffin, went on a hike with Branch-
Branch: That was yesterday.
Peppy: Right! Wait, what are we talking about again?
All: Poppy’s flowers!
Peppy: Oh, yes! That would make an excellent gift. If it would help, I can draw one from memory. (He draws a picture of a flower. Some of its parts are mixed up.)
Smidge: That does not help.
Peppy: Hm. Apparently my memory’s terrible. You know, I might have a picture book of the flowers in Poppy’s baby scrapbook. (He takes out Poppy’s baby scrapbook.) Which is good, because my memory’s terrible. (He shows a picture of glowing flowers in a grotto.)
All: Ooh!
Peppy: I know! With this, I can draw the flower perfectly. (He starts drawing again.)
Branch: No, we don’t… If we have… Never mind. Where did you take this?
Peppy: Lucky for you, I make sure all my scrapbooks contain comprehensive maps. (He rips a map out of the scrapbook.) It says here, we found them in Budding Valley, in a cave called… the Flotto of the Growers.
All: Huh?
Branch: What was that?
Peppy: Uh… No, sorry. Got a little tongue-tied. Grotto of the Flowers.
Branch: Thanks, King Peppy. I’m just gonna take this. (He and the Snack Pack leave.)
Peppy: Certainly! Good luck! (Soon, the Snack Pack reaches an area with flowers.)
Branch: Way to go, guys. According to the map, we’re just about to reach the Field of Blossoms.
Biggie: Branch, doesn’t that say “Field of Grossums”?
Branch: Biggie, please. Why would it say- (Suddenly, some Grossums appear and the Snack Pack screams and runs away. They soon stop.) That was a close one. (He and the Snack Pack duck under a bird.) Oh, no! Birds! The terror of the skies! We should go another way. (Smidge takes the map from him.)
Smidge: (chuckles) Relax, Branch. It says these birds are only interested in sucking nectar from a certain kind of flower. (Branch sighs.) That kind of flower. (She points to a bird sucking nectar from a yellow flower. It turns around and Smidge and Branch try to flap their arms.) Oh, my Guh! (The Snack Pack screams and runs away again.)
Branch: I hate being right!
Smidge: You do not! (As the birds fly, the Snack Pack hides under a mushroom.)
DJ Suki: We’ll never make it! We should have gone with the sandwich!
Branch: It’s OK. The map says we only have one more obstacle to face. The Kabloom… (Suddenly, a Kabloom Shroom sends him flying.) SHROOOOOOMS!!! (The Snack Pack watches in shock.)
Biggie: Did he say “Kabloom Shroom,” or “Kabloom Shrooms?” (Just then, another Kabloom Shroom sends him and the other Trolls flying.)
All: AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! (They land in front of a cave. Biggie, Smidge, and DJ Suki have landed on a mushroom while Branch, Satin, and Chenille have landed on the ground.)
Biggie: Oh, Mr. Dinkles. Where’s Mr. Dinkles? (Branch sits up and sees a cave.)
Branch: I think we found a cave. (The Snack Pack gets up.)
DJ Suki, Biggie, Satin, and Chenille: Oh.
Smidge: Yeah. (The Snack Pack walks to the cave.)
Branch: It wasn’t easy, but we finally made it. The Grotto of Flowers. (As soon as he lowers the picture, we can see that there is only one flower left. The Trolls can be heard gasping.)
DJ Suki: There’s only one left?!
Smidge: No. We can’t all give her the one flower. That would be like…
All: … a group gift! (groaning)
Branch: OK, there’s only one fair way to handle this. Everyone vote who they think should give Poppy the flower.
All: Me!
DJ Suki: Guys, I’ve got it! (She takes two sandwiches out of her hair.) Two words: Sandwich.
Smidge: Oh, oh, oh! Here’s what we do. (She goes to the flower.) I’m gonna pick the flower… and run! (She runs off and the others fail to catch her.) Oh, my Guh! Oh, my Guh! Oh, my Guh! (Satin and Chenille try to grab her with their hair, but miss. She trips and the flower flies into the air.)
Biggie: I’ve got it! I’ve got it! (Branch uses Gary to grab the flower.) Hey!
Branch: I’ll take that, thank you!
DJ Suki: (Taking the flower from Branch) No, thank you!
Branch: Hey!
DJ Suki: Can’t catch me, dudes, because I’m taking the Kabloom Shroom Express! Up, up and away! (She jumps in the mud, but nothing happens.) I think this is just a puddle. (She falls over and Branch grabs it. A Kabloom Shroom then sends him flying.)
Branch: Branch for the win! (Cloud Guy grabs the flower and sniffs it.) NO, NOT YOOOOOUUUU! (Cloud Guy lets go of the flower and Biggie grabs it.)
Biggie: Thank you! (As he runs, Satin and Chenille jump onto another Kabloom Shroom and fly into the air.)
Satin and Chenille: Twin Twister Attack! (They pin Biggie down with their hair.)
Satin: Ha! You’re not going anywhere now!
Chenille: And neither are we! (Branch grabs the flower from Biggie.)
Branch: Yoink! (DJ Suki runs behind him.) Huh? Give it up, DJ! I’m not going back to Poppy empty-handed, and no power on earth can-
DJ Suki: Look out! Bird! (Branch screams and she takes the flower from him. Biggie, Satin, and Chenille run behind her.)
Biggie: DJ, look out! Bird!
DJ Suki: Come on, how dumb do you think I- (Suddenly, Smidge on a bird takes the flower.) Hey! (Smidge cackles with joy. Just then, a Grossum attacks her and she falls off. The bird flies away.)
Biggie: Oh, no! Come back! (He and his friends kneel down.)
Branch: What have we done?
Biggie: I guess we’re giving Poppy a sandwich.
DJ Suki: Oh, yeah!
Branch: No, guys, this isn’t over. If Poppy were here, what would she say?
All: “Don’t listen to Branch!”
Branch: No! Well, yes, that’s what she’d say. But what would she do? (Smidge pulls on Satin and Chenille’s hair like a slingshot and Biggie uses Mr. Dinkles as the shot.)
Biggie: Trollspeed, my friend. (Branch looks at the bird going higher into the sky.)
Branch: FIRE! (Mr. Dinkles flies into the air and takes the flower from the bird with his mouth. He goes up into space for a bit and parachutes down. Poppy is scrapbooking on the ground.)
(Poppy)
Today is a great day
Scrapbooking scrap (Mr. Dinkles lands next to her.)
Poppy: Mr. Dinkles? What are you doing here all by yourself?
Mr. Dinkles: (Dropping the flower from his mouth) Meep.
Poppy: (gasps) My very favorite flower! This is so thoughtful! (Her friends arrive.) Hey, guys. Were you all in on this?
Branch: Yeah. It’s a… group gift.
Poppy: A group gift? I love it! Thank you! This is… (sniffs) … terrific.
Smidge: Really? You’re not disappointed?
Poppy: Disappointed? Why would I be? (She puts the flower in her hair.) Guys, do you realize how much you all mean to me? I cherish every moment we share together. See, Satin, this button is from the first dress you made me. (She gives the button to Satin.) Chenille, this is the zipper you put in when you found out I wasn’t great with buttons. (She gives the zipper to Chenille and she giggles.) Smidge, this hair bow is what you were wearing when we first met. (She gives the bow to Smidge and they hug.)
Smidge: Aw!
Poppy: Branch, this feather is from the pillow that chose us both. It reminds me how alike we are, deep down. And, DJ, this is the sandwich you gave me this morning.
DJ Suki: Oh, yeah. (She eats the sandwich in a single bite.)
Poppy: The point is, your friendship is the best gift a Troll could ask for.
All: Aw! (They have a group hug with Poppy.)
Poppy: Now, don’t get me wrong, I just love the flower. And it’s gonna go great with the rest of them.
Branch: Wait, “the rest of them”?
Poppy: Oh, yeah. My dad gave me a bouquet this morning. (Peppy appears with a wagon of flowers.)
Peppy: Well, the idea just came to me. (He chuckles while the Snack Pack grunts with annoyance.)
