Branch! Branch, come quick! A fight's broken out in the Village! [raucous cheering.]
[crowd.]
Tickle fight! [crowd cheering.]
[laughter.]
Hello? Hm.
"The hatch is unlocked.
Enter, players.
The Cavern Keeper awaits"? [screams.]
[screams and grunts.]
- Huh? - [voice in distance.]
giant Bergen.
Roll five times to see how tall the Bergen is.
[voice 2.]
That's right, it's my turn.
- [voice 1.]
My character has - What the? does have plus-five intelligence from the scrapbook.
[gasps.]
[in unison.]
Poppy! W-What are you doing here? I was gonna ask you the same question.
Hm? Uh We're playing that fun game Branch invented.
Cupcakes & Caverns! A game? You know, Poppy.
Branch says he invites you to play with us every month, but you're always too busy.
Too busy to play a fun game? Guys, does that sound like me at all? [others.]
Hm? Um Oh, well See, I um Hm? [sighs.]
OK, I never invited Poppy.
[gasps.]
Oh, my guh! Oh, my guh! Oh, my guh! Look, I apologize, all right? I didn't think you'd like it, Poppy.
You tend to prioritize fun over rules, and the best part about this game is the rules.
Well, does this mean if I promise to follow the rules I can join in? Ooh! Can she? Branch? Branch? Meep? Uh Sure.
If you promise.
Promise made! - Yay! - How do we play? Ooh! Ooh! It's so fun! We're on a quest to find the Gem of Friendship.
It's a lost artifact that has the power to spread love and respect to whomever draws near.
Love and respect? Friendship? Gems? Branch, you've been keeping me in the dark on all this? - Hey, I apologize.
Now, let's play! - [beep.]
"Our heroes come to a clearing in the forest, where they meet a new member of their fellowship.
" I am Bignor the Worm Master! Dinkle Strike! [roars.]
And I am Smidge-winn expert with the bow and hair-row.
[chuckles.]
And I am Thistleus the Wise Keeper of The Sacred Scrapbook.
Scrap-tillius Book-tacto! [both.]
Aw! And I am Pop-pealanor, the Sorceress of Song and Dance! [sings high note.]
- [Branch.]
No! - Huh? You're Lady Popsalot, the knight.
Really? Why can't we just make up whatever we want? Seems more fun.
Uh Because it's against the rules, which I fully support.
Duh! [laughs.]
Yay, rules! [chuckles.]
Proceed.
"The heroes prepare for their journey, when, suddenly, they're attacked by an Ice Growler!" [roars.]
- So cool.
- Dinkles, ready Inch Attack! May my aim be true! - [yelling.]
- [gasps.]
No! - Wait! - Huh? Guys, I don't think this kitty means us any harm.
- I think all it wants - [sword clatters.]
is a hug.
[both.]
Poppy, no! [Poppy.]
You want a hug? Do you? [snarling.]
[gasps.]
Uh-oh.
- [grunts.]
- Poppy! Scrap-dullum Book-pedimas! [roars.]
"Thistleus defends Poppy and sends the Ice Growler running.
" - Wahoo! - Yay! "But in the melee, Thistleus is frozen in ice.
" What? - "For the remainder of the game.
" - No! Frozen? But I was just about to go get a sna-a-a-ack.
No, Thistle, you don't actually have to Oh, never mind.
So Thistle can't play anymore? You mean, I ruined his whole game? Sorry, those are the rules.
W-What about a do-over? Sorry.
Rules! They're what makes this game great.
The rules make the stakes high and the consequences real.
[gasps.]
"And so, having lost Thistleus the Wise, the group has no choice but to press on to find the gem.
Through mountains, valleys, and forest they travel, often stopping to do ridiculous things with no relevance to their quest.
" We stop to have an elaborate song-and-dance number! - [dice rattles.]
- [sighs.]
You succeed.
- Yay! - [cheering.]
[laughter.]
[Branch.]
"But eventually, the team comes to a river and must cross before the floodwaters rise.
" M'lady, 'tis your turn.
- Upon which mushrooms shall we tread? - Uh I don't know.
I don't want to make a choice that ruins the game again.
So, uh, I guess I'll let you guys tell me what to choose! [both.]
Oh, OK! Forward.
- Right.
I mean left! - Left.
I mean right! - Left.
Right.
- Left.
Sorry, right! - I mean left! - I mean right! - Just tell me what to do! - Sorry, right! "Sadly, you've hesitated too long.
" [Poppy screams.]
[mushrooms dinging.]
[Poppy grunting.]
"After Popsalot's failure at the river, you come to a village of Fuzzlings.
If you negotiate well, they may guide you to the gem.
" OK.
I'm taking no chances this time.
While you guys do the talking, I'll stand perfectly still with zero engagement.
- [Fuzzlings jabbering.]
- [dice rolls.]
"Your standoffishness offended the Fuzzlings.
They attack.
" [gasps.]
What? [all scream.]
Quick, in there! [Fuzzlings jabbering.]
[sighs.]
I think that worked.
Hey, I'm really sorry I keep messing up.
I just wanted to play the game, but the consequences are so real that - Guys, look! - Oh, my guh! [Biggie.]
The Gem of Friendship! We did it! Yay! I didn't ruin the quest! Yes, yes, yes! - [dice rolls.]
- [groans.]
You got to be kidding me.
"By taking the gem, Lady Popsalot triggers the cavern defenses.
" [all gasp.]
[grunting.]
[evil cackling.]
[voice.]
What's this? Adventurers seeking my gem? I think not.
Who goes there? It is I, Branchtar the Isolated! [evil cackling.]
[cackling stops.]
That gem belongs to me.
I stole it to stop the spread of friendship throughout the realm, and I will summon the full power of my magic wand before I surrender it! Oh, no! Oh, my guh, villain! Thine aggression intimidates us not! So be it.
- Attack! - [roaring.]
Uh [all yelling.]
"And so they attack.
" What do you do? I unleash Mr.
Dinkles! I let fly a quiver of hair-rows! I hide in the corner? [others.]
Huh? Trust me, it's better that I stay out of the way, where I won't do any damage.
Besides, you guys are really good.
You can win! Dinkles Frenzy Attack! Two beasts, one hair-row! Oh, my guh! Plus-six damage! Another hit! Plus-four magic! [both.]
Yes! - Yes! - A-ha! Yay! Branchtar defeats you.
Easily.
- Oh, my guh.
- Meep! Casting a spell, Branchtar suspends the helpless Bignor and Smidge-winn in mid-air [both scream.]
and then turns his eyes to the corner.
[gasps.]
[Branch.]
He draws closer and closer.
Poppy, it's all up to you! You've got to fight back! OK.
If it really is all up to me I hug Branchtar! [others.]
What? That's right.
This is the way I play, and I am done second-guessing myself.
I hug Branchtar, to warm his heart.
"Warm his heart"? Are you sure you want to try that again? The chances of it working are like one in a thousand.
- Oh, my guh! - Meep.
Are they? Because I'm holding the Gem of Friendship.
And it has the power to spread love and respect to whomever draws near.
[gasps.]
Oh, right.
So I guess that makes the odds one in 100.
Plus, my character has a plus-two charisma rating, which I believe also improves my chances? Actually, yeah, it does.
And, if I'm not mistaken, I get a vulnerability bonus if I take off my armor! [gasps.]
That makes it fifty-fifty.
Heads, you fail; tails, you succeed.
Oh, my guh! Do it.
[gasps.]
[low-pitch.]
Oh, my guh! [gasps.]
[gasps.]
It worked! Branchtar is befriended! The gem is yours! - Yay! - Wahoo! No, no, no, n [sighs.]
[Smidge.]
Uh Little help here? Thank you.
Yay! Yeah! - That was amazing! - Bye! See you later! That was so fun.
Hey, you played great today.
Sorry I didn't invite you.
No, that's OK.
Well, I'm looking forward to next week.
What happens next week? You decide, Cavern Keeper.
[evil cackling.]
[cackling continues.]
Daily workout time, Branch.
- [panting.]
- Ready? If I'm gonna go from Village grump to full-on Troll, I got to put in the reps, right? - Let's make some gains.
- [bell dings.]
Laughter! Give me five! Go! - [laughs.]
- One! Two! Feel the chuckles! Feel them! Speed scrapbooking! - Star! - Star.
- Rainbow! - Rainbow! - Double rainbow! - Double rainbow! Miniature working scale model of Troll Village! - What? - Do it! - Now the hugstacle course.
- [beep.]
- Go! - Hug time! Hug time! Hug ti Creek? No, I can't! - It's too much! - [Poppy.]
Come on! Dig deep! Dig deep! [groans.]
[yelling.]
Hug time! Yes! That's the affection I'm looking for! [panting.]
Poppy! Come quick! Finn Cascade is back! [cheering and laughter.]
Wait, who? [laughter.]
Guys! Guys! Hold on.
- Who is Finn Cascade? - [both.]
What? Branch, come on! He's the daredevil of all daredevils! Every so often he drifts into town, wows the entire Village and then, a few days later, drifts out again taking all our hearts with him.
Really? How have I never heard of this Troll before? Oh, he's not a Troll.
[crowd chanting.]
Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! He's a fish? OK, I'm out of here.
I got to go do literally anything else.
You're leaving? But you haven't seen the legend in action.
- Guys, he's a fish.
- [splashing.]
There is no way he can possibly live up to all of this hype.
- [splashing continues.]
- Huh? - Ooh! - Wow! [crowd cheering.]
He's a cool fish.
Oh, you ain't seen nothing yet.
[drumroll.]
[revving.]
[gasps.]
I can't watch and yet, I can't look away.
[cheering.]
Wow! Just wow! I got a picture with Finn Cascade! He lets us take photos? [laughs.]
Finn! Hi! It's so mate to greet you! - [Finn grunts.]
- Uh Great to meet you.
Blah! [chuckles.]
I was hoping to get a picture of you, me, and the water.
A picture, not a pitcher of water.
Ha! That could be fun, too, though - picture of a pitcher.
[chuckles.]
Am I making this weird? I'm making this weird.
- [Finn grunts.]
- Anyway, picture? [Finn grunts.]
OK, here we go.
- [Finn grunts.]
- Finn? - He's coming over here for pictures! Yay! - [cheering.]
D-Did I do something to make Finn not like me? Is it my hair? Oh, it's my hair, isn't it? No, no, it's not your Actually, I would do something about your hair.
Ow! Branch, relax.
Look, I get it.
A photo from Finn is his way of saying, "You're my friend.
" But he needs time to get to know you, so just be patient and, most of all, be yourself.
Yeah, OK.
It will happen.
- [cheering in distance.]
- Just got to be patient and be myself.
I got a photo with Finn! Patient.
See? Finn's my friend.
I know Finn! Whee! Patient.
- [bird hooting.]
- [whimpers.]
He took a photo with everyone but me.
Well, I'm not sure it was everyone.
Poppy! Branch! Finn took a picture with Mr.
Dinkles! I mean, a fish being friends with a worm? [laughs.]
Oh, is there anyone he doesn't like? [chuckles.]
[groans.]
There's always tomorrow.
I'm sure you guys will be friends then.
Oh, we're gonna be friends, all right.
We're gonna be really good friends.
Oh, boy.
[cheering.]
[crowd.]
Ooh! - [cheering.]
- [Poppy.]
Uh Branch, dare I ask? The best way to make a friend is to share common interests, Poppy.
And the one thing I know Finn is interested in [beep.]
is stunts.
Yo, Finn! Check out this sweet high jump! Daredevil bros in the house! Yeah! [screaming continues.]
[gasps.]
[spluttering.]
So, picture? [shrieks.]
- Uh, I'm so sorry! I was just trying to - [Finn grunts.]
What are you doing now? I'm not above a little bribe.
This fish-flake brownie should win Finn over.
Branch, you're making way too big a deal out of this picture.
That's easy for you to say, Poppy.
All the fish in the lagoon like you.
[shoal of fish.]
We love you, Poppy! See? [grunts.]
Look, Finn, I'm a nice guy, OK? If you'd be willing to come up and get to know me, there's a big old fish-flake brownie in it for you.
[Finn.]
Mm.
Well? [gasps.]
Yes, that's it! I really think we're gonna be good friends.
Maybe even best fr Huh? Whoa! No, this is for Finn! Hey, cut it out! No! Whoa! [screams.]
[screaming.]
Huh? Huh? Oh, no! No, no, no, no, no! [grunting.]
[female voice.]
Hey, hey! You're gonna wear yourself out doing that friend.
Whoa! Who are you? I'm Baha.
You must be famished from the um the swallowing.
Kelp cake? It's fresh.
Uh I'm good, thanks.
Then how about I give you the grand tour? Let's see.
That's the patio.
Over there is my study.
And, of course, this is the common area where we all meet and socialize.
I know it's not much, but after a while, you'll be calling it home.
Home? How long have you been here? About this long.
Oh.
So we are trapped.
[laughs.]
I don't like to think of it as "trapped.
" More like on vacation in a place we can't leave ever.
- [bell dings.]
- Hug time! Whoa! Hey! Forget hug time.
We need to focus on escaping.
- Believe me, I've tried everything.
- You can't have tried everything.
[grunting.]
Ha-ha-ha! [gasps.]
- Tried that.
- [grunts.]
If we tickle Finn, he'll open his mouth.
Tried that, too.
[grunts and laughs.]
[screaming.]
[clattering.]
[gasps.]
I know! What if we get him to cough? Uh [grunting.]
He doesn't cough out of his mouth.
He coughs out of his blowhole.
Uh-oh.
[grunting.]
[screaming.]
[grunts.]
We don't like you, Branch.
[blowing raspberries.]
[groans.]
[grunts.]
[sighs.]
I should have listened to Poppy.
Why was I so caught up in getting a ridiculous picture? Just to prove some cool fish liked me? Wait, you got swallowed trying to get a picture with Finn? [laughs.]
Hey.
It's not funny.
It's a little funny.
[Branch gasps.]
You, too? Mm-hm.
So there I was, doing a jet-ski high jump, water everywhere, and gulp! One big bite! After that, well, you know the rest.
[chuckles.]
Fish-flake brownie? Smart! Not smart-smart, because you ended up here, but better than my worm costume.
You put on a worm costume? [laughs.]
Oh, my gosh! Hey, I was desperate! I was the only one he wouldn't take a picture with.
Well, now you're not the only one.
I've got to say, this isn't half bad.
Yep.
[sighs.]
You figure out a few things when you've been down here as long as I have.
You know what? We are not giving up.
There's got to be another way out.
Afraid not.
The mouth is shut tight, and the blowhole is too small.
Hm.
Too small for us, maybe, but it's just right for this.
Huh? - Grab the hangy-ball thing.
- [grunts.]
If he can't cough out his blowhole, then maybe, just maybe [grunting.]
[grunting.]
[air hissing.]
Come on! Come on! [Trolls screaming.]
[grunts.]
[both grunt.]
[gasps.]
Branch, you're alive! - Oh! Baha, you were in there, too? - Hey, Poppy! Wait, you two know each other? Yeah.
We had brunch this morning.
But the hashmarks on the wall, there were hundreds of them! I know.
356 minutes! Felt like an eternity! You were trapped down there for less than a few hours? Mm-hm.
[laughs.]
You are one weird Troll, Baha.
[laughs.]
We both are.
- [laughter.]
- [Branch.]
Huh? Guess we'll never get that picture now.
Yeah, guess not.
But I got something better than a picture with a cool fish.
A cool friend.
Aw! You guys! I want to get a shot of this.
Smile!
Branch! Branch, come quick! A fight's broken out in the Village! [raucous cheering.]
[crowd.]
Tickle fight! [crowd cheering.]
[laughter.]
Hello? Hm.

He's a cool fish.
Oh, you ain't seen nothing yet.

D-Did I do something to make Finn not like me? Is it my hair? Oh, it's my hair, isn't it? No, no, it's not your Actually, I would do something about your hair.
Ow! Branch, relax.
Look, I get it.
A photo from Finn is his way of saying, "You're my friend.
" But he needs time to get to know you, so just be patient and, most of all, be yourself.
Yeah, OK.
It will happen.
- [cheering in distance.]
- Just got to be patient and be myself.
I got a photo with Finn! Patient.
See? Finn's my friend.
I know Finn! Whee! Patient.
- [bird hooting.]
- [whimpers.]
He took a photo with everyone but me.
Well, I'm not sure it was everyone.
Poppy! Branch! Finn took a picture with Mr.
Dinkles! I mean, a fish being friends with a worm? [laughs.]
Oh, is there anyone he doesn't like? [chuckles.]
[groans.]
There's always tomorrow.
I'm sure you guys will be friends then.
Oh, we're gonna be friends, all right.
We're gonna be really good friends.
Oh, boy.
[cheering.]
[crowd.]
Ooh! - [cheering.]
- [Poppy.]
Uh Branch, dare I ask? The best way to make a friend is to share common interests, Poppy.
And the one thing I know Finn is interested in [beep.]
is stunts.
Yo, Finn! Check out this sweet high jump! Daredevil bros in the house! Yeah! [screaming continues.]
[gasps.]
[spluttering.]
So, picture? [shrieks.]
- Uh, I'm so sorry! I was just trying to - [Finn grunts.]
What are you doing now? I'm not above a little bribe.
This fish-flake brownie should win Finn over.
Branch, you're making way too big a deal out of this picture.
That's easy for you to say, Poppy.
All the fish in the lagoon like you.
[shoal of fish.]
We love you, Poppy! See? [grunts.]
Look, Finn, I'm a nice guy, OK? If you'd be willing to come up and get to know me, there's a big old fish-flake brownie in it for you.
[Finn.]
Mm.
Well? [gasps.]
Yes, that's it! I really think we're gonna be good friends.
Maybe even best fr Huh? Whoa! No, this is for Finn! Hey, cut it out! No! Whoa! [screams.]
[screaming.]
Huh? Huh? Oh, no! No, no, no, no, no! [grunting.]
[female voice.]
Hey, hey! You're gonna wear yourself out doing that friend.
Whoa! Who are you? I'm Baha.
You must be famished from the um the swallowing.
Kelp cake? It's fresh.
Uh I'm good, thanks.
Then how about I give you the grand tour? Let's see.
That's the patio.
Over there is my study.
And, of course, this is the common area where we all meet and socialize.
I know it's not much, but after a while, you'll be calling it home.
Home? How long have you been here? About this long.
Oh.
So we are trapped.
[laughs.]
I don't like to think of it as "trapped.
" More like on vacation in a place we can't leave ever.
- [bell dings.]
- Hug time! Whoa! Hey! Forget hug time.
We need to focus on escaping.
- Believe me, I've tried everything.
- You can't have tried everything.
[grunting.]
Ha-ha-ha! [gasps.]
- Tried that.
- [grunts.]
If we tickle Finn, he'll open his mouth.
Tried that, too.
[grunts and laughs.]
[screaming.]
[clattering.]
[gasps.]
I know! What if we get him to cough? Uh [grunting.]
He doesn't cough out of his mouth.
He coughs out of his blowhole.
Uh-oh.
[grunting.]
[screaming.]
[grunts.]
We don't like you, Branch.
[blowing raspberries.]
[groans.]
[grunts.]
[sighs.]
I should have listened to Poppy.
Why was I so caught up in getting a ridiculous picture? Just to prove some cool fish liked me? Wait, you got swallowed trying to get a picture with Finn? [laughs.]
Hey.
It's not funny.
It's a little funny.
[Branch gasps.]
You, too? Mm-hm.
So there I was, doing a jet-ski high jump, water everywhere, and gulp! One big bite! After that, well, you know the rest.
[chuckles.]
Fish-flake brownie? Smart! Not smart-smart, because you ended up here, but better than my worm costume.
You put on a worm costume? [laughs.]
Oh, my gosh! Hey, I was desperate! I was the only one he wouldn't take a picture with.
Well, now you're not the only one.
I've got to say, this isn't half bad.
Yep.
[sighs.]
You figure out a few things when you've been down here as long as I have.
You know what? We are not giving up.
There's got to be another way out.
Afraid not.
The mouth is shut tight, and the blowhole is too small.
Hm.
Too small for us, maybe, but it's just right for this.
Huh? - Grab the hangy-ball thing.
- [grunts.]
If he can't cough out his blowhole, then maybe, just maybe [grunting.]
[grunting.]
[air hissing.]
Come on! Come on! [Trolls screaming.]
[grunts.]
[both grunt.]
[gasps.]
Branch, you're alive! - Oh! Baha, you were in there, too? - Hey, Poppy! Wait, you two know each other? Yeah.
We had brunch this morning.
But the hashmarks on the wall, there were hundreds of them! I know.
356 minutes! Felt like an eternity! You were trapped down there for less than a few hours? Mm-hm.
[laughs.]
You are one weird Troll, Baha.
[laughs.]
We both are.
- [laughter.]
- [Branch.]
Huh? Guess we'll never get that picture now.
Yeah, guess not.
But I got something better than a picture with a cool fish.
A cool friend.
Aw! You guys! I want to get a shot of this.
Smile!
