Branch

There will be no more, (blows his nose) scrapbooking.

Branch
(from trailer)

My name is Branch and I'm a troll. Why do I live in a heavily fortified survival bunker? Because right outside my door lurks a nightmare... named Poppy.

Branch
(from trailer)

Poppy is the leader of the trolls, and it's not her fault she's so insanely happy. She's just never faced a real problem until now.

Branch
(to Poppy, annoyed by her humming)

Do you have to sing?

Branch

You all said I was crazy, huh? Well, who’s crazy now??? Me. Crazy prepared!

Branch

Why don't you try scrap booking them to freedom?

Branch

I don't sing and I don't relax. This is the way I am and I like it. I also like a little silence!

Branch

How do you always look on the bright side? There is no bright side here. None!

Branch

You don't know anything, Poppy, and I can't wait to see the look on your face when you realize the world isn't all cupcakes and rainbows, cause it isn't. Bad things happen, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Creek

Whoa, whoa. [seems to levitate] Easy, Branch. Easy. [the camera zooms out, revealing that he is simply being carried by a beetle-like insect. Creek turns around and puts the insect's face to his forehead] Thank you for providing safe passage, brother. [the insect flies away and Creek puts both hands together] Namaste. [turns to Branch] Okay, first of all, mate, thanks for sharing your unique perspective on things. [mockingly] Again. [Biggie and Cooper hold back their laughter] But, just for now, why don't you try on some positivity, eh? A little positivity might go with that vest.

Branch
[sarcastically]

Okay, fine. I'm positive you all are going to get eaten.

Branch

I don't do high fives.

Slap it, boss.

Branch

Not gonna happen.

Party on the top floor.

Branch

Nope.

Little slappy? Make Daddy happy?

Branch

That's weird.

Come on, just one little high five!

Branch

Oh, no thanks, I'm good.

Look, just do this but with YOUR hand. [slaps his hand]

Branch

Thank you for the demonstration. Really cleared up exactly what I will NOT be doing.

Branch! It's a high 5! The others lead to certain DEATH! Get perspective!

Branch
[pause] [growls under his breath]

One high five and then you'll tell us which tunnel to take, right?

So easy...

Branch
[growls]

Okay, fine! [tries to slap Cloud Guy's hand]

[pulls his hand away]

Whoop! Too slow!

I'm going to let you slide with a fist bump.

[as Branch goes to fist bump Cloud Guy starts doing all kinds of weird movements with his hand]

Shark attack! Nom-nom-nom-nom. Jellyfish, hand sandwich, turkey, snowman, dolphin, helicopter, last supper, monkey in a zoo.

Branch

What?

[covers Branch is fist with his hand]

Gearshift. [starts to pretend to be a car and change gears with Branch’s fist; then starts laughing. Poppy laughs as well, but Branch glares at her and she stops laughing] Okay, okay, okay. Now I'm thinking we hug. [in anger, Branch breaks a stick in half, Cloud Guy is body suddenly has thunder and lightning and starts to rain]

So where do you think our friends are?

Branch
[they pass under a painting that shows the Bergen family preparing to consume dishes from Trolls: jelly, cupcakes, and tacos]

If I had to guess, I'd say in a Bergen's stomach.

Could you try to be positive? Just once. You might like it.

Branch
[sarcastically]

Okay. I'm sure they're not only alive... But about to be delivered to us on a silver platter.

Thank you. That wasn't so hard, was it? [Branch is suprised]

Wait! Why isn't this one singing?

Cooper

Come on, Branch. Sing with us!

Trolls

Yeah, Branch, sing with us!

Branch

No. That's okay.

You don't think this will work?

Branch

No, no. It's not that. I just don't sing.

Branch!

No. He's right. This idea is stupid. King Gristle will never love me. [starts crying]

Cooper

Come on. Hey, hey. What's all this?

[tries to comfort Bridget]

That's right, Bridget. Just let it all out. [Bridget cries loudly] Bridget, let it go. Just have a good cry. Go, girl! Okay, now bring it back in. Reel it in.

[Branch climbs to the window]

Branch, what are you doing? You have to sing!

Branch

I told you, I don't sing.

You have to!

Branch

I'm sorry. I can't.

No, you can. You just won't.

Branch

Fine. I just won't.

You have to!

Branch

No!

Yes!

Branch

No!

Why NOT!? Why won't you sing?!

Branch
[irritated,furiously]

Because singing killed my grandma! Okay?!

Branch

When are you gonna ask him about Creek?

We have to warm him up first. Don't you know anything about romance?

Branch
[sarcastically]

Of course! I am passionate about it.

Really?

Branch

Don't you know anything about sarcasm?

Cooper

I think I had a sarcasm once.

And I'll take one of everything, Bibbly. Things are gonna get messy.

Captain Starfunkle

Enjoy your pizza. Here's your tokens.

Ooh, so fancy. Good thing I brought my appetite.

You are fantastic!

Bridget, compliment back!

I like your back.

No, I meant...say something nice about him.

But I do like his back.

Huh?

Um...

Branch

Poppy, Help her!

Your eyes... They're... Ugh... Ooh! Your ears... Your eyes... ears...

Nose!

Skin!

Cooper

Neck!

Skin, neck, ears, nose, face, back of your head.

Are you okay?

[autotune]

Your teeth.

Teeth.

What is going on? Are you making fun of me?

Your eyes!

[terrified]

Branch, we have to save him!

Branch
[sarcastically]

Save him from what? His stomach?

[with a bit of hope]

We didn't see him chew. We didn't see him swallow!

Branch
[pessimistically]

Face it, Poppy. Sometimes people go into other people's mouths, and they DON'T come out. If we go after Creek now, we're going to get eaten. I'm sorry... But it's too late for him.

Okay, everybody. Let's go save Creek.

No! No! You can't leave. Lady Glittersparkles is gonna be the king's plus one at dinner.

Branch

The dinner where they're serving Troll? Yeah, I think we're gonna have to skip that one.

No! No, you have to help me be Lady Glittersparkles. I need you.

You don't wanna pretend to be someone you're not forever!

Then how about just for tomorrow?

Bridget, you don't need us anymore. You and the king can make each other happy!

That's impossible! Only eating a Troll can make you happy. Everyone knows that! I wish I'd never gone on this STUPID DATE! [sobbing]

Bridget.

Just go... GET OUT OFF MY ROOM! Leave me alone!

Please, listen.

[The Trolls leave Bridget's room as Bridget breaks down] [to Bridget; on microphone with angry]

IDGET!

Branch
[to Poppy]

We've gotta go.

[on microphone with angry]

What's going on down there? Idget, scrub that dish! [she throws a plate at her] The king's bringing a plus one.

[sobbing]

Yes, Chef...!

Branch

♪I can't stop the feeling So, just dance, dance, dance I can't stop the feeling So, just dance, dance, dance, come on Ooh, it's something magical It's in the air, it's in my blood, rushing on♪
