Trolls Page #4

Could you try to be positive?

Just once. You might like it.

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!

Hug time? Seriously?

Listen.

This is gonna be the best Trollstice ever!

Such a great idea I had.

Yes. Tomorrow is Trollstice, everyone.

And it must be perfect!

Yes, Chef!

Feels great to be ordering everyone around again.

Branch, look!

They're alive?

And on a silver platter, too. We were both right.

And to mark the occasion, Your Highness, look.

I found your old Troll bib.

Oh, wow! I bet you still fit.

Like a glove!

Ahh...

Shh.

Oh, you think that's funny?

We'll see who's laughing

when I bite your yummy head off.

When I bite all y'alls yummy heads off.

Wait a minute.

Chef, this isn't enough yummy heads

to feed all of Bergen Town.

How are we supposed to have Trollstice

if there's not enough Trolls?

Oh, there's plenty more where that came from, sire.

Are you sure?

Because I promised everyone a Troll.

No, no, no, sire!

Everything will be fine.

If I were truly worried...

would I be willing to do this?

Creek!

Oh, my first Troll!

Go on, eat, King Gristle.

Enjoy a taste of true happiness.

Shouldn't we wait for Trollstice?

Phew.

Sire, every day is Trollstice when you have Trolls.

Yeah, I guess.

But my dad said the first time should be special.

Well, you're the king now.

Yeah, I am the king.

But I think I should share this moment

with all the kingdom.

Eat it!

Mmm.

- Oh, my God!

- No!

Yes!

Mmm.

Idget, lock these Trolls in your room

and guard them with your life.

Yes, Chef.

Yes. Yes, I know.

Branch, we have to save him!

Save him from what? His stomach?

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

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.

Mmm-mmm-mmm.

Huh. Poppy!

Scullery maid!

Wash these pots and pans for Trollstice.

The king's inviting everyone.

Except you.

I've been alone with you inside my mind

And in my dreams I've kissed your lips

A thousand times

I sometimes see you pass outside my door

Hello

Is it me you're looking for?

I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your smile

You're all I've ever wanted

And my arms are open wide

'Cause you know just what to say

You're all the idiots! I have to do everything myself.

And you know just what to do

I have to get out of bed,

I'm supposed to put my own clothes on, tie my own shoes.

And I want to tell you so much

I love you

Oh, she's in love with the king.

What are you talking about? Bergens don't have feelings.

Well, maybe you don't know everything about the Bergens.

Now let's go.

- Guys!

- Poppy!

Celebrate good times, come on

It's a celebration

There's a party going on right here

No! There is not a party going on right here.

The sooner we get you guys out of here...

The sooner we can save Creek!

What?

Hello?

Is it me you're looking for?

Phew...

I know you're looking for the cupcakes and rainbows here...

but let's face it, Creek's been eaten.

They put him in a taco!

It was horrible.

Sorry, Poppy. Creek's gone.

Poppy, how could you possibly think Creek's still alive?

I don't think he's alive.

I hope he's alive, and that's enough.

How do you always look on the bright side?

There is no bright side here. None!

There's always a bright side.

Hey! Where do you think you're going?

Glitter! No! Get back in your cage!

Chef's gonna be so mad!

No!

Bridget, stop!

You're in love with King Gristle.

Um, I don't know what you're talking about.

Uh, excuse me!

That's not mine.

What does it matter?

It's not like he even knows I'm alive.

Bridget, I can help you!

What if there was a way

we could both get what we want?

You love Gristle, too?

You'd better back off, girlfriend!

No. Bridget, no.

That Troll King Gristle put in his mouth, that's Creek.

And I would do anything to save him.

The only problem is...

we can't get anywhere near the king

without him eating us.

Oh. But...

you can.

You can walk right up to him and tell him how you feel.

As if.

I can't just walk right up to the king.

His Royal Awesomeness would never talk

to a scullery maid like me.

What if he didn't know you were a scullery maid?

What if he thought you were this total babe?

What kind of total babe

would be dressed like a scullery maid?

I smell like gravy.

What if we made you a new outfit?

I'm thinking...

Jumpsuit!

What's the point of a jumping suit

if I still have this hair?

Oh, we can fix that.

What's the point of a new outfit and new hair...

if I don't even know what a total babe would ever say?

We can help with that too!

Really?

What do you say, Bridget?

You get us Creek,

and we'll get you a date with the king.

Let's do it?

When you look in the mirror

Let it disappear

All your insecurities

Wait!

Why isn't this one singing?

Come on, Branch.

Sing with us!

Yeah, Branch, sing with us!

Oh, no. That's okay.

You don't think this will work?

Oh, 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.

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

That's right, Bridget. Just let it all out.

Bridget, let it go. Just have a good cry.

Go, girl!

Okay, now bring it back in.

Reel it in.

Branch, what are you doing?

You have to sing!

I told you, I don't sing.

Well, you have to! I'm sorry. I can't.

No, you can. You just won't. Fine. I just won't.

You have to! No!

Yes! No!

Why not? Why won't you sing?

Because singing killed my grandma, okay?

Now, leave me alone.

My uncle broke his neck tap dancing once.

How did singing kill your grandma?

What song was she singing?

I was the one singing.

And I need you now tonight

And I need you more than ever

That day, I was so lost in song...

I didn't hear my grandma trying to warn me.

Branch! Watch out!

And we'll only be making it right

Watch out, Branch!

Grandma!

Once upon a time

There was light in his life

But now there's only love in the dark

Nothing he can say

A total eclipse of the heart

I haven't sung a note since.

I'm so sorry, Branch. I had no idea.

I just assumed you had a terrible voice.

No, no, it was like an angel's.

At least, that's what Grandma used to say.

Whoa, whoa.

What are you doing? It's not hug time.

I just thought you could use one.

Oh...

Mmm.

Okay. Okay, I'll help.
