13 quotes Poppy Poppy That's my point, Branch. You are so lucky to have a brother to fight for. I mean, if I had a sister it would be so perfect. We'd be best friends and we'd teach each other things and we'd never fight and we'd have each other's back and we wouldn't even have to talk cuz we'd think all the same thoughts. Everyone would ask us if we were twins and we'd laugh and we'd be like well not technically but, if she were ever in trouble, I would do everything I could to help her. I would show up.
Poppy We're going to have the best family reunion ever! BroZone 2.0. BroZone reunion. BroZone, here we bro again. BroZone where did they bro? I don't know. We're going to find them!
Poppy I'm gonna need copies of that pic. [whispering] Wallet size.
Poppy Looks like your band days aren’t behind you. [flirty growl]
Poppy Wow! Too much hustling is a thing.
Poppy This is your chance with your brothers, Branch.
Poppy I know you think it's risky, and maybe it is, but it'll all be worth it. Family's always worth it.
Poppy Did you just braid my hair?
Poppy My what?
Poppy I can't... I can't believe this. I've always dreamt of having a sister. I was just saying this. Wasn't I just saying this?
Poppy I'm not going anywhere.... Unless it's with you, to save Floyd!
Poppy You’re stealing BroZone's talent because you have none of your own, you big...oh, you big PHONIES!

Oh, hey, look at the time. We’re going to be late to the royal wedding. Let’s go get married.
Poppy Branch!
What? [realizing] I-I mean let’s get Bridget and Gristle married.
Poppy Yeah. Oh, 'cause it would be weird if we got married.
Yeah, weird.
Poppy Wow. It’s weird that we’re still talking about how weird it was like 15 seconds later.
Poppy Remember when I said you should open up to me and be real....
Well....
Poppy YOU COULD HAVE STARTED BY TELLING ME YOU HAD A SECRET BROTHER!
Former brother.
Poppy THAT'S NOT HOW DNA WORKS!
Poppy Oh my gosh, I was being so rude. I've never met anyone from Branch's family before. I'm Poppy, Branch's girlfriend. Should we hug? Fist bumps? Smile and wave for now and see where the night takes us?
All of the above.
Poppy Wait! I know you. You're the guy... from BroZone. We were just listening to them.
Cooper
Yeah! BroZone!
Poppy Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, don’t tell me. Um, okay, well, you're not the heartthrob.
Well, that's your opinion-
Poppy Fun one? No. You're kind of uptight.
Uptight?
Poppy You’re not the sensitive one either.
Okay, a lot of assumptions for someone you just met 30 seconds ago.
Poppy Oh, oh, I've got it! You're John Dory!
The leader.
Poppy The old one!
Uh, sorry to interrupt but we lose the venue at eleven so---
Shh, I’m trying to listen. Very hot gossip.
Poppy So, if you're Branch's bro, then that means all the BroZone bros are Branch's bros too! [gasps and turns] Branch! How come you never told me?!
Because it's complicated.
Poppy Oh sweetie [pats Branch on the back] Cuz you weren't in the band.
Poppy What?! No way! Which one was he?
Bitty B.
Poppy Bitty B?! No. That’s impossible. Bitty B had glasses.
Oh, and a diaper.
[sing-song voice]
Annnnnddd a falsetto made of gold. [normal voice] Not that anyone cared. But that’s all in the past. Because they stopped being my brothers the day they walked out on me and never came back!
Poppy Branch, what's going on with you?
The question we should be asking is: What's going on with him? I bet you he's only here because he needs something.
Poppy That's not true! He's your brother!
Branch, I'm going to be straight to you: I need something.
And there it is!
Poppy [to John Dory]
Come on, man, I'm trying here!”
Wait-- Wait. Hold up, Branch. It's about Floyd.
What do you mean?
He's in danger, man.
[flashback] [voice over]
I hadn't heard from him since the band broke up. -Until... [a thud] I got a letter from him.
[reading]
“Dear John Dory, I'm being held against my will by superstars Velvet and Veneer. Come to Mount Rageous at once and bring our brothers. Love, Floyd."
I didn't know where any of you were, so I went to Mount Rageous alone. I found where this Velvet and Veneer were performing that night. And there was Floyd.
[falls face down onto the table the diamond bottle Floyd is sitting in and picks himself up]
Yo, Floyd.
John Dory? [he stands up, moving to the front of his prison and putting his hands on the inside of it] I can't believe it. I never thought l'd see any of my brothers again.
I'm gonna get you out of here, bro.
No, you've gotta get out of here. You don't understand. Velvet and Veneer are giant, pop-obsessed succubi with no talent, and they've been stealing mine. And they'll be back any minute for more.
What? That's even worse than lip-syncing. Not my brother. Not today. [John turns and walks away then he turns back to Floyd, trying different methods to try and get him out: running straight at the bottle and slamming into it face first, taking out candy like ninja stars and throwing them straight at the diamond bottle and using the spikes of his fingerless glove to draw a circle into the front of the diamond bottle and punching it. Floyd is getting more and more unimpressed and annoyed with each attempt]
John. John. Stop. The bottle is made of diamond. And there's only one thing that's powerful enough to shatter diamond.
Right. A diamond-shattering diamond hammer. Where can we get one of those?
No, John. It's the perfect family harmony.
Our voices sound like garbage. We are dying out there. What we need is more troll.
Run, John Dory. Save yourself.
Don't worry, Floyd. I'll be back with the bros. You have my word.
Alright. Alright. Tiny, Branch, Poppy, and this random dude [John Dory: Wha—?] on another musical adventure filled with heart, hilarity and happiness.
Poppy Tiny, what are you doing here?
Well, Aunt Poppy, for your information, I am no longer a baby. I am a big boy now and I'm on a man-sized rite of passage to learn lessons of life, courage and maybe love.
Poppy Awww.
Should we be letting a baby drive?
Not to worry, fellow grownup. I have procured my learner's permit. [holds it out]
Poppy [leaning over to read it]
Who is Adulty McManface?
Poppy What? No! Why? Are---are you?
Enough chitchat, Adulty McManface. Step on it!
Poppy Wow. Look at your old outfits. Puffy jackets. Pukka shell necklaces. Denim tuxedos? Branch, did you have frosted tips?
Yeah. It was an era.
Don't forget his perm.
Poppy No way! Pictures or it didn't happen. [John Dory holds out a picture which she grabs] Look at you! You were so cute. I love it.
But we had to pull the plug when he tried to frost his perm.
It was an era!
Tragic.
Oh, my gosh. Hello! My name is Viva! It is so "fantastamazing" to see other trolls.
[Viva rushes around, hugging John Dory then Bruce then Branch and finally Poppy]
Hi! Ha! [puts Poppy down] So, "fantastamazing" is my own personal word. It means, um, fantastic and amazing. I used to say "amastic," but then I was like, "Hmm, that's not as good."
Poppy "Fantastamawesome."
That's different, but that works too. Way to make it your own.
Poppy [whispering, to Branch]
Is this how people feel when they meet me?
Am I being a lot? Sometimes I can be a lot.
I'm not sure we're in the right place.
Course you're in the right place. Any troll is welcome here with us.
Hug time!
Yeah... no...
Poppy My dad gave it to me.
Okay, this is so totally random, but I used to have one just like it. Can I see that?
Poppy [takes her bracelet off and puts it on Viva's wrist]
Wow. It fits you perfectly.
Poppy Whoa.
Poppy I'm Poppy. [extends her hand out towards Viva]
Poppy?
Okay, um, another totally random, weird question, but is your dad King Peppy?
Poppy Uh, yeah?
You're.... you're---you're alive!
Poppy [confused]
I'm alive!
This is unbelievable! I never thought I’d see you again.
Poppy [still confused]
Again?
Poppy, it's me. Viva.
Poppy Uh....
I'm your sister.
Poppy My... my what?
Your sister. Your hermana.
Woah.
Come on, man! Am I the only one without a long-lost sibling?
Poppy So, I was thinking about getting more into, like, reading short stories and essays instead of full novels.
Ooh, I love that for you.
Poppy Yeah. But, um.... but just to circle back real quick. I still have a million questions about what happened.
I used to live at the troll tree. I was there when you were born. And you were so cute, kinda like you are now, only teensier and weensier and.... [changes the subject] Oh. Do you want to make candy necklaces that we never finish because we eat all the candy?
Poppy Obviously! [changes the subject] But, Veev, I'm just gonna need you to focus here and-and tell me everything. Why am I only learning about you now? What happened?
[funny voice]
We got---accidentally---separated. [normal voice] And I've lived here ever since. The end. Want to do candy toe rings next?
Poppy Uh, accidentally separated?
Poppy Viva, are you talking about the night the trolls escaped Bergen Town?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I guess it was that night.
I thought so many times about leaving, you know, to look for you and Dad, but it’s not safe out there.
Poppy Okay. Obviously this is a lot, and you should be able to open up about this on your own time. But we'll have plenty of time to work through this on the way to Mount Rageous.
Whoa! I am not going to Mount Rageous. And neither are you, silly. You’re never going to leave again.
Poppy Wait, what was the... What was that last thing?
I’ll go get Poppy.
No, no, no, wait. Hold on. There's no way Viva's gonna let her go.
What? W-What are you talking about?
Like I said, she's got some stuff going on, man. If we don't wanna get trapped, we should sneak out now.
[a light switch flips, shocked, confused looks appearing on Clay’s and his brothers’ faces as they all look up and then around. A gate comes down, and they are locked in. Unable to sneak out. Clay turns his attention towards Viva, a nervous smile appearing on his face]
Oh, hey... [chuckles] Viva. What's up, girl?
Poppy, suddenly showing up Viva! What are you doing?
You're not leaving here no matter what, because--because it's just not safe out there. You're welcome.
Poppy Wait, is this about the Bergens? Because they stopped trying to eat us. That's all in the past.
Yeah, right. That's hilarious, Poppy. I'm laughing really hard.
Poppy I'm serious, Viva. Bridget, my best friend I was telling you about, she's a Bergen. [holds her scrapbook out to Viva] Look. Bridget and I do a million fun things together. We talk and we play games and we sing songs. And make up these really bad dances. It's a lot like--Well, actually, it's a lot like what you and I have been doing. The world's a lot different than it used to be.
Viva, look, I used to be just like you. I built a bunker, and I lived in it for years because I knew it was safe. And, sure, i-it kept me alive. And I never had to wear pants. But I was living without pants. Does that make sense?
Well, I feel judged.
You don't understand. I just got my sister back. I'm not gonna lose you. For anything. [gate opens, startling her and all of the other trolls and causing them to all turn around and look up to find that Clay is the one who opened the gate] [a look that’s a mix between nervousness and fear appears on Viva’s face] Clay?
I'm sorry, Viva, but we have to leave. I don't wanna lose my brother either.
Stop. Stop. Time-out. Let's do it again from the top. Spruce, I want some smolder in those eyes. Clay, you're being too stiff. We need some sillier robot. Bitty B, maybe a smaller diaper.
If this diaper was any smaller, I could taste it.
That's why I don't wear one of those. It's a hard fit to pull off.
Really great note, John Dory. Super helpful. Thanks. Thanks. Now I have a creative note for you. Stop being bossy!
What? I'm not being bossy. I'm helping us be better.
No. No, dude, you're forcing us to be perfect, just like you always have, so we can hit the perfect family harmony.
Yeah, for Floyd!
Is it? Or is this all just so you can tell people what to do again?
Wh-What?
Poppy Guys, guys, this really isn't helpful right now. Let's all maybe take five, huh?
This isn't gonna work if you keep on being the same old John Dory.
Yeah. We've all changed. Bruce settled down, Branch is slightly taller with zero glasses and I'm a licensed CPA. Put some respect on my name, fool!
Well, I'm not allowed to change. I'm the oldest. I had to be the leader.
You love bossing us around. Just admit it.
Why do you think I moved to the middle of nowhere? So I didn't have to be in charge of anyone. Four little brothers is a lot of responsibility!
Why do you think I left? So no one would treat me like you did.
You know what, Spruce...
It's Bruce!
Thank you, Clay!
Guys, we can't forget about Floyd.
Look, Branch is right. We're here for Floyd. Let's just get this done, and we can go our separate ways.
Fine.
Wait. What?
What? The mission's the mission. You didn't think we'd all live together when this was all over, did you? Singing songs and roasting marshmallows?
Oh. I’m sorry. Is that funny to you? That I might want us to actually be a family again? [takes out his bunker plans and looks down at them] Tiny Diamond, pull over now.
[Rhonda lurched to a stop, and Poppy, John Dory, Clay and Bruce stumble in response]
Don't be a baby, Branch.
You're mad at him but you guys do the exact same thing to me. You all still treat me like the baby of the family. But guess what?! I stopped being a baby the day you guys walked out on me because I had to. Then Grandma got eaten and there was no one else to take care of me. [crumples his bunker plans up and throws them on the floor] This time I'm walking out on you! [Branch turns and storms out of the van without looking back]
Poppy [walks over and picks up the paper before straightening it out and looks down at it]
This is Branch’s bunker. He built this for you guys.
I didn’t know.
Poppy I guess you never asked.
Wait. Grandma got eaten?
Poppy [The trio started to scale the walls] [voice-over]
Good thing I brought extra gummy gloves.
Poppy You have to walk on your own, Tiny. You have to be a big boy.
But my feet hurt! I don’t wanna!
[Branch, Tiny Diamond, and Poppy venture deep into the vents only to see fan blades below them]
But we’ll have to bypass the fan blade, so that our cupcakes don’t get sliced in two.
Ooh, we brought cupcakes?
Poppy [stares at Tiny Diamond and Branch]
Oh no.
No. Not what I meant. It doesn’t matter. [he jumps in, followed by Poppy and Tiny Diamond. At last, they make it out of the fan blades and land somewhere else]
[voice-over]
After that, we need to cut the power, so we can move freely through the interior air ducts.
[Cut to Branch, Tiny Diamond, and Poppy as they try to cut the wires]
How do you know which wires to cut?
Poppy I don’t. I’m just blasting everything until something turns off. [The place's power suddenly turns off.]
Mount Rageon
[Elsewhere, a restroom with a Mount Rageon inside had its power shut down.]
Hello?
[Branch, Tiny Diamond, and Poppy see the imprisoned Floyd still in his diamond cage, and they walk up to him, with Branch finally got to reunite with his brother after enduring years of separation]
Floyd!
Branch?! Is it really you?
Yeah, it's really me.
[presses his face against the outside of Floyd’s diamond prison and touches it]
Oh, finally. Somebody gets me.
[Poppy smiles as Floyd does the same, with Tiny Diamond by her side who smiles too]
But you need to leave. Right now.
Poppy No, Floyd. It’s okay. We’re here to rescue you.
No. This is a trap. Velvet and Veneer, they- they lured you here. You gotta leave before they come back. Hurry!
No. I’m not leaving here without you.
Branch, please. Do it for me.
[Branch, Poppy, Tiny Diamond, Crimp and Rhonda head to the Rage Dome and stop the twins]
Velvet and Veneer! Give me back my brothers!
Poppy [Sticks out of Rhonda]
Yeah! What he said!
Poppy You are stealing BroZone’s talent because you had none of you own, you big... Oh, you big... PHONIES!
[Everyone gasps in shock] [nervous laugh]
Okay, we need to leave, right now. [She and Veneer hop back to their car and the former pats and the latter drives off. Rhonda follows the car, snarling after them with Branch, Tiny Diamond, and Poppy inside her]
Poppy [madly points at the camera]
FOLLOW THAT LUXURY VEHICLE!
On it, Poppy!
[As Tiny Diamond steered Rhonda to follow them, Velvet looks back as Rhonda gets closer. She turns around and grabs the wheel Veneer is driving before attacking him. Together the car itself jumps off the road with Rhonda flying after them. The car lands on the highway with Velvet and Veneer on it; Rhonda activates her wheels and rockets into hover mode and runs down after the car into the streets below]
[After Floyd “dies”, he floats down and is caught by Branch, who is in tears as he sets him down on the floor of the yacht and their other brothers join them, all sad and silent] [sadly]
Floyd.
[Branch and his three older brothers surround the motionless Floyd; John Dory is in the right, Clay is in the middle, while Branch and Bruce are in the left, all of them falling to their knees and with sad looks on their faces]
Come on, man. Wake up. Wake up, Floyd!
We need you, brother. [Poppy and Viva watch this from here with sad looks on their faces]
Oh no!
[As his three brothers continue to look at Floyd sadly, Branch lets out his conflicted expression to Floyd, with tears still flowing down his face] [hoarsely]
I... I built the hideout, Floyd. Except for the ten story water slide.
[Branch and his three brothers hung their heads as they feel Floyd’s body. Branch felt Floyd at first, but Floyd’s eyes slowly open to Branch and his brothers] [wakes up]
But.... how will we shower?
Floyd?
Yeah!
Yes!
Floyd! No way! Oh, yeah! [laughs]
[Branch hugs Floyd, before John Dory, Bruce and Clay join in the hug along with Poppy and Viva. Elsewhere, Velvet and Veneer recover after the shockwave from the Perfect Family Harmony]
Listen up, Mount Rageons. We...are...FRAUDS! [the crowd gasps, and Velvet looks at him in shock] And we've been literally torturing little trolls. [the crowd gasps again as Veneer grabs and holds a camera] We just wanted to be famous. Honestly, my sister wanted to be famous and, truly, I was too afraid to stand up to her.
[defiantly]
Yeah, you do. And you asked me to change, anyway, which isn't okay, family or not. [Floyd smiles at him, as he smiles back at him. Crimp suddenly places handcuffs on Velvet's thumbs]
You also engaged in troll-napping, troll torture, fraud... [shrugs, snickering sheepishly]
And tax evasion. [takes out a pen and clipboard] I'm going to have to repossess your yacht.
Fair enough. Prison it is! [Crimp snaps her fingers, then two security guards show up. Veneer smugly smiles and Velvet scowls with rage while the guards escort them both away]
Poppy [Mount Rageons start cheering with Velvet and Veneer shown getting escorted away by the security guards on the camera, as Rhonda starts barking at Velvet and Veneer in the process]
So, how you feeling?
Happy, grateful and really sorry it's taken me this long to open up to you.
Poppy Whoa, TMI. Boundaries, my man. That is a lot of feelings.
[Poppy and Branch both laugh, then go in for their first kiss. Watching, the Mount Rageons swoon and cheer upon witnessing this on the screen, while Bruce and Clay both sport proud looks on their faces as they do a congratulatory handshake, Floyd sheds a tear of pride whilst John Dory hugs him, and Rhonda howls in happiness] [after the kiss]
Uh... What just happened?
Poppy Oh. Viva just braided your hair. [the camera pans out to reveal Branch's hair is braided] It means she likes you.
That means I like you!
You didn't think that BroZone was the only band I've ever been in, did you? Please.
Now, these guys know how to flex the drip.
Wow. You guys are so in sync.
Boom
[Everybody laughs along with one of Branch’s other bandmates saying ‘hear what he said’]
I don't get it.
Poppy Hey, Branch, it’s almost showtime and I was thinking that maybe we should— [stops and zeroes in on Branch with his other band, all of whom have turned to look at her] WHAAAAAAAA-
Poppy, I have a small proposal. Will you...
Poppy Join the band?! Of course I will! I thought you would never ask.
You know me too well. Now get up here and sing with us.
Poppy [jumps up excitedly]
Ahhh! Viva! Viva! Get up here! We're in the band!
