Psychic Pals Part 2
Previously on Trollstopia...
Poppy was having a vision while standing on her surfboard, but it mysteriously paused, and it wasn't only the vision that was paused, but Poppy herself appeared frozen in place.
"I had a vision, but it froze," Poppy told the other leaders back in her cabin.
"Dr. Quisenberry's Center For Psy...For Psychic Research" Aggie asked in surprise toward a male Magic Classical Troll who had given her a card.
The male Magic Classical Troll nodded, saying, "I am Dr. Quisenberry himself. Perhaps you might want to visit my research center someday, in case you want us to help you better understand your visions."
"Welcome to the Quisenberry Research Center for Psychically Gifted Trolls," Dr. Quisenberry announced as the Trolls saw a few MMTs, including Darna, Carlita, Bello, and Sara Lee, demonstrating their different psychic abilities.
"Now, the ocular vision extractor will remove Poppy's psychic energy, travel through this tube, and if all goes well, it will be deposited into this beaker," Dr. Jeweline, Dr. Quisenberry's granddaughter, explained as it showed the procedure happening, and Poppy's cloudy visions entering a beaker before it showed another clip where the visions were now purple and brought back into the beaker safely.
"My visions," Poppy shouted in panic as she dove to catch the falling beaker while everyone watched in worry, but the beaker broke upon contact with the floor, and the visions were set free, zooming around.
"Where'd they go? Where are my visions," Poppy asked when she saw her visions were missing, while everyone looked around, wondering where they went.
The last clip showed Branch trying to comfort Poppy while his right eye glowed purple for an unknown reason
It had been an hour since Poppy had lost her visions, and there was still no sign of them anywhere.
For the sake of Poppy's mentality after everything she had been through since this morning, Dr. Quisenberry recommended that Poppy be taken back to the resort to rest, and he would call them to let them know if the visions had turned up anywhere.
Aggie's new psychic friends have also agreed to help search, and they enlisted in the help of another psychic MMT (Robin, a female Magic Rock Troll who was able to summon and talk to ghosts) and a few others that Aggie had met at the center, and they promised they would alert her or her friends if anything came up.
To pass the time, the leaders and ambassadors decided to grab some lunch at the dining room back at the resort. Branch was the only leader currently not eating with them at the dining room because he was going to the beach to tell the others about what had happened.
However, while everyone else was eating, Poppy was the only Troll who didn't seem to have an appetite; she just kept pecking at her plate of popcorn shrimp with her fork, looking at it forlornly.
"Poppy, ay know y'all are feeling sad, but quit playin' with your popcorn shrimp ayn' try ta eat," Delta told the Pop Queen.
Poppy pushed her plate aside, saying, "I'm not hungry. Ever since I lost my vision power, I've been having this emptiness inside."
"Yeah, that emptiness, Popsqueak? It's called hunger. Eat," Val addressed.
"Val, easy. Poppy's been through a lot this morning, let her eat at her own pace," Quincy informed the Rock ambassador.
"I know, I'm sorry, but I'm was worried about Poppy; this isn't like her," Val replied worryingly.
"She's seems to have lost her Poppy-like energy," Dante added.
"Yeah, and this is the longest I've seen Popsqueak frown since back during the World Tour," Barb pointed out.
Suddenly, Aggie felt her phone vibrate and picked it up, saying, "Hello"?
She got up and listened to whoever was calling her on the other side, smiling when she heard who it was, saying, "Oh, hi, Dr. Quisenberry"!
That made everyone turn their heads in anticipation to hear what the scientist was telling her, replying every few seconds with, "Uh-huh. Uh-huh."
Aggie then quickly turned around and whispered into her phone, looking very frustrated, "What do you mean you still can't find Poppy's visions?! Look harder"!
She then hung up the phone and turned around, facing her friends, nervously smiling as she addressed, "Hey, great news! Dr. Quisenberry says he'll have your visions, Poppy, by day's end."
"Naw, he didn't," Holly stated while crossing her arms, she and the others were able to tell that Aggie was lying.
"Yes, he did. Did you hear me say day's end? Only those who speak with a Britrollish accent say day's end. And Dr. Quisenberry speaks with a Britrollish accent. So there you go, yes he did," Aggie replied, still trying to keep up the impression that things were going to be alright.
"Aggie, we know you're trying to help, but we also know you're a terrible liar, so...what did Dr. Quisenberry really say, " Trollzart asked Aggie.
Aggie sighed sadly, saying, "Alright, fine. He said...he hasn't found Poppy's visions...yet," adding the "yet" in an optimistic tone of voice, mentioning, "But he and the other psychic MMTs are still looking around for any sign of them."
"Where could they have gone, yo," Synth asked, adding, "They looked like they could've floated anywhere."
"I'm sure they'll appear back soon, babies," Low-Note Jones stated while getting up, saying as he picked up his plate, "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go take the rubbish out." He then realized what he said and chuckled, saying, "Well, what do you know? It appears Low-Note Jones, too, has a little bit of Britrollish language in his articulatory vocabulary. Rubbish is the Britrollish word for trash. Cheerio, babies," before walking away.
Poppy still didn't seem to feel any better, saying, "It's hopeless, guys. I'm nothing without my visions."
"Poppy, don't say that; you're able to do so many amazing things," Quincy mentioned.
"Yeah, and even before you had visions, you were still capable of doing a lot of things, some that even we can't do," Trollex added.
"Maybe until your visions come back, you should try to do something to take your mind off of it," Aggie suggested.
"Yeah, somethin' ya love ta do ayn' supuurr fun," Delta added.
"You can even try doing something completely new you've never done before," Barb stated, saying, "The sky's the limit, right"?
Dante got a great idea, saying, "Poppy, perhaps maybe you'd like to try a new instrument as part of the ever-growing goal of exchanging customs and goals between our tribes."
He pulled out a violin from his hair, saying as he gave it to the Pop Queen, "Here. Try this. It's an incredibly hard instrument to learn."
Poppy looked at the violin curiously and tried to play it, but she sounded a bit off at first.
Dante advised, "Just... just go with it. I know it's hard, but you'll get a flow of it the more you practice."
Suddenly, Poppy surprised everyone by starting to play a tune on the violin so...beautifully! She played it as if it was second nature, and the music was so amazing to hear, it surprised not only her friends but even the other MMTs in the resort dining room who were currently eating and heard the music playing.
After Poppy concluded the violin song, all the MMTs were clapping while her friends cheered.
"Hot dang, Poppy! That there sounded incredible," Holly commented.
"*imitates airhorn noises*," Synth cheered.
"Whoo! Poppy, that was amazing," Aggie told the Pop queen, impressed.
"Yeah, who you know you could the violin so well," Trollzart addressed, bowing in respect towards Poppy's skill.
Poppy smiled a bit at first before she frowned and placed the violin down, saying, "Nah, not for me."
Out on the beach, Branch was telling the Snack Pack, delegates, and associates what happened earlier, explaining everything to them, and the explanation shocked them to the core.
"Wait, wait, wait, so, back it up? You're telling us that somehow, Poppy and the other leaders, excluding yourself, have been having psychic visions like Aggie," Legsley asked.
"Which you've kept from us for a while now because you wanted to try and know yourselves how it came to be," Blues pointed out.
"And then today, somehow, Poppy's visions were freezing because of you both arguing," Stereo inquired.
"And when the scientists you guys visited was trying to clean them, an accident occurred that made the visions spill out and vanish," Minuet asked.
Branch nodded, saying, "Yep, that's what happened, and now, they're gone."
"What do you mean Poppy's visions are gone? Like, gone gone," Cooper asked worryingly.
"Gone gone," Branch replied to the Pop/Funk prince.
"Ah man, that's really bad," Prince D commented sadly.
"Poor Poppy, she must be feelin' all sorts of sadness raheet now," Gust mentioned while lowering his hat over his chest.
"Yeah, Poppy's been feeling pretty upset about it, and we've been trying to cheer her up, but, it hasn't been working out too well," Branch informed.
"Dang, we spend a morning here out on the beach, and we miss all the excitement," Sid commented randomly.
"It's not exciting, Sid. She's upset," Branch told the disguised Flexi-Troll sternly.
"Woah, woah, man, I totally get it, and trust me, i do feel bad for your wife, but I'm just saying this is really crazy; how did she and the other Normal Troll leaders even get psychic visions to begin with? It's cool, but confusing," Sid replied.
Branch scratched the back of his neck, saying, "That's what we're trying to figure out still, among other things."
"Also, how come you haven't had a vision yet either, Branch," Guy Diamond asked curiously.
"I'm also questioning that, bur right now, I'm just worried about Poppy," Branch answered, wanting to go check up on his wife.
"Hey, when the others leaders have had visions, do they make the funny facial expression Aggie makes when she has a vision," Cooper asked.
Before Branch could answer, suddenly, he felt his eyes widen, turned his head, and felt something play in his mind.
In his head, he saw what looked like Low-Note Jones, who was up on top of a palm tree by the resort.
When the mysterious clip ended, Branch seemed to snap back into reality, shaking his head in confusion.
"Yeah, that one," Cooper commented while chuckling, oblivious to the stunned facial expressions everyone else had.
"Uh, Cooper, I don't think Branch was intending to do that to be funny," Demo told the Pop/Funk prince.
"Branch, are you ok," Rhythm asked.
"What happened," Blues asked.
Branch faced the group, saying, "Guys! I think I just had a vision"!
"A vision," the group said in shock.
"Come on, you're probably just pulling our leg here," Riff said with a slight chuckle.
But Branch didn't appear to be joking at all, as her nervously paced around them, saying, "No, no. I started getting all tingly and then I saw this... this purple light and Low-Note Jones was up on a palm tree"!
"Ayy palm tree," Buckaroo inquired.
"That's never gonna happen; he's inside the resort with the others, and never once have we seen Low-Note Jones climb a tree," McJagger pointed out.
Branch realized that maybe what he saw was probably just his anxieties at play, smiling in relief as he addressed, "Yeah, you're totally right."
"But just in case," Branch added nervously as he ran over to the resort, with the Snack Pack, delegates, and associates following him.
When they got to the front of the resort, they were greeted by a very alarming sight: Low-Note Jones was on top of a palm tree, just like Branch had said!
Everyone's jaws dropped in shock, especially Branch when he saw that what he thought he had seen...really did come true! He had an actual vision!
Low-Note Jones saw his friends looking up at him and smiled, saying, "Hey there, babies? Everyone feeling Funky today"?
"Oh my guh, he's up on that palm tree," Smidge exclaimed in shock.
"Low-Note Jones! How the heck are you up a tree," Melody shout-asked.
"What happened? How did you even get up there," Minuet asked the Funk ambassador?
Low-Note Jones adjusted his glasses, saying, "Here's what happened, babies: a little girl lost her kitty cat, and it climbed up this tree. So, being the kind Troll I am, I climbed up the tree, rescued the kitty, and wound up getting myself stuck in the process. I tried to call for help, but no one could hear me over the violin music playing inside. Don't let my coolness fool you; I'm very much worried for my life right now."
"Well, would you perhaps like some assistance in coming back down," Laguna offered.
"No worries, babies. Low-Note Jones always has a back-up plan in case he ever gets stuck up in a high place," Low-Note Jones replied, until he saw the branch he was on breaking and added, "Uh oh, that's not good."
In an instant, the branch broke, and he fell to the ground, landing on top of Demo, McJagger, and Sid in the process, the trip of boys groaning in pain when Low-Note Jones fell on them.
"Never mind; thanks for cushioning my fall, gentlemen," Low-Note Jones commented while getting up and helping them back to their feet before he walked back inside the resort.
After Low-Note Jones had left, everyone had turned around and faced Branch, with Stereo saying, "Yo! You just had a vision"!
"I just had a vision," Branch exclaimed in shock.
"My Daddy's friend Branch had a vision, y'all," Tiny Diamond cheered.
"What's gonna happen next," Clampers asked curiously.
Branch saw that Demo, McJagger, and Sid were in pain, making him say, "Well, um, I'm gonna to get some first-aid for those three."
"You're good," Melody stated as Branch and the others helped bring the three injured Trolls into the resort.
Inside Cooper and Prince D's cabin, Branch, the Snack Pack, the delegates, and associates were all in the room, watching Branch place a band-aid on Demo's knee.
Demo was covered in band-aids, Sid had a few scuff marks that had a little rubbing alcohol on to help heal them, and McJagger was fine, except his back was sore, so he had a heated/cooling pad on his back.
"So, did you have any more visions," DJ Suki asked Branch.
"No, but I did have a realization," Branch replied while closing the first-aid kit McJagger had lent him.
"Ooh, someone's been paying attention to the word of the day," Rhythm commented with a chuckle.
"Rhythm, this isn't a kid's TV show, why would there be a word of the day," Riff asked the Funk Troll.
"Because what's more fun than the knowledge of fun words," Blues replied to the Rock Troll.
Branch quickly interrupted them by saying, "I'm serious, guys. These aren't my visions; they're Poppy's."
This made everyone confused, as Biggie commented, "Hey, you don't know that, Branch. Maybe you just got your own vision power."
"Well, looking into statistics, it does seem likely, but about 10% likely," Laguna commented while looking at her notepad, adding, "There is a 90% chance Branch is correct on his theory, as the circumstances of the situation are highly interlinked within a big coincidence."
Branch responded with, "Laguna's right, guys; it's just too big of a coincidence that she would suddenly lose hers and I would get mine. They're definitely her visions."
Feeling guilty that the visions he had belonged to his wife weren't his, he started walking to the door, saying, "I've gotta tell her"!
But Legsley quickly stretched her hand out and grabbed Branch, dragging him back while saying, "Wait! Wait! Branch, this could be your chance"!
"My...chance? For what," Branch asked with an unsure shrug.
"Now that you have visions, you can be able to experience what's it like to be psychic like Aggie and the other leaders," Legsley explained, with some of the Trolls nodding in agreement.
"She's right; you were so far the only leader who hadn't had a vision yet, and voila! The opportunity has presented itself to you in the perfect moment," Demo added.
Branch still felt unsure, saying, "But..it doesn't feel right knowing that these visions I'm having aren't mine."
"Branch, you've always wondered what it would be like to have visions. This is a gift; it'd be rude not to accept it," Satin commented.
"Yes, nothing is ruder than not accepting a gift brought to you," Chenille mentioned.
Branch gave it some thought, responding with, "I do like gifts, but they've got to go back."
"But how do you even know that they can put them back," Prince D asked curiously.
Branch answered, remembering the ocular vision extraction process, "Well, they took them out of Poppy, and they were gonna put them back in Poppy, so I'm pretty sure they can take them out of me and put them back in her."
"But you only had one vision, and it was kind of a dud," Sid addressed, asking, "Can't you at least wait until after you have one good one"?
"It would provide a good research opportunity," McJagger mentioned.
"Plus, it's super dope you'll get to see what it's like to see the future," Stereo added.
Branch sighed, saying, "I don't know, guys. I..."
Suddenly, Branch could feel another vision, as his eyes widened again, and he felt it occur.
The new vision that played showed everyone holding colorful ice cream cones.
Guy Diamond, in the vision, told Branch, "See? It's a good thing you didn't tell Poppy, otherwise, you wouldn't have had that vision about today's special ice cream palooza at the ice cream cart, and we wouldn't have gotten these amazing flavors"!
When the vision ended, Branch snapped back into reality, while Minuet commented, eyeing the vision face Branch made, "Hey, I know that face."
Branch gave it some thought before he smiled, saying, "Well, I guess, maybe, while I make my decision, we should all do something. And based on my new vision, is anyone up for ice cream"?
The group cheered happily as Branch led everyone outside to get some ice cream.
Back in Poppy and Branch's room, Poppy was finding a way to keep herself busy.
While some of the leaders and ambassadors were in their own cabins, trying to research some ways they could help find Poppy's visions, Aggie, Trollex, Synth, Holly, and Val were the only ones who were with Poppy, wanting to see if there were any ways they could help her cheer up.
Currently, Poppy was doing another unexpected talent" kneading dough into bread.
"When did you take up baking bread," Val asked when she saw poppy kneading the dough so professionally.
Poppy answered, smiling, "Right after I put down the trombone."
She heard the ocean ding, saying, "Oh, excuse me. It's my focaccia."
Poppy skipped to the oven and, using oven mitts, pulled out a tray with freshly baked bread on it, putting it on top of the stove to cool down.
The other Trolls could smell how delicious the freshly baked bread smelled, as Holly commented, "Whel, hot dang, Poppy! This is amazin'! You're suddenly good at things we didn't even know y'all could do befawe"!
Poppy giggled, saying, "Uh, yeah. Before, I could see the future."
"Now, I can bake bread," the Pop queen added, sounding a bit sad again.
Aggie tried to make Poppy feel better by saying as she was chewing on a baguette, "Losing your visions was bad," before adding excitedly, "But on the upside, this baguette is to die for"!
"MMMMMMMM, Poppy, this bread you're making is so good," Synth exclaimed, his mouth full of about ten rolls he stuffed inside, enjoying how delicious it tasted.
Poppy gave a hesitant smile, replying with, "Yeah, I'm good. But I feel so bad."
"Maybe singing will help you feel better; a little music always helps cheer me up when I'm sad," Aggie suggested.
Poppy seemed to like the suggestion and said, "I did find this catchy song I want to sing to Branch for our next date. Guess this will provide some good practice," and pressed the button of a radio she pulled out of her hair, playing some music, as she started to sing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Made You Look by Meghan Trainor~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Poppy: I could have my Jewel-ci on. I could wear my Trollis Vuitton. But even with nothin' on, bet I made you look! I made you look!
I'll make you double take soon as I walk away. Call up your chiropractor just in case your neck break. Ooh, tell me what you, what you, what you gon' do, ooh!
'Cause I'm 'bout to blow your mind, break down your bunker bind. I'm 'bout to lull you to me when I start to harmonize. Ooh, tell me what you, what you, what you gon' do, ooh!
Aggie, Holly, and Val, finding the beat catchy, started to harmonize in the background while Poppy continued to sing.
Poppy: When I do my walk, walk, I can guarantee your jaw will drop, drop! 'Cause they don't have the special thing I got, got! Ladies, if you feel me, this your bop, bop! Bop-bop-bop!
I could have my Jewel-ci on (Aggie, Holly, Val: Jewel-ci on!). I could wear my Trollis Vuitton. But even with nothin' on, bet I made you look!
All (girls): I made you look!
Poppy: Yeah, I look good in my flowery dress (Aggie, Holly, Val: Show it off!). But I'm cuter when my morning hair's a mess. 'Cause even with my queen cape on, bet I made you look!
All (girls): I made you look!
Poppy: Mhm-hm-hm.
Don't let this pass you by (Woo!); I ain't no lullaby. One listen to my voice will make you want to happy cry. Ooh, tell me what you, what you, (Poppy: What you gon' do, ooh, ooh!)! what you gon' do, ooh!
When I do my walk, walk, (I guarantee your jaw will drop, drop!) I can guarantee your jaw will drop, drop! 'Cause they don't have the special thing I got, got! Ladies, if you feel me, this your bop, bop! Bop-bop-bop!
I could have my Jewel-ci on (Aggie, Holly, Val: Jewel-ci on!). I could wear my Trollis Vuitton. But even with nothin' on, bet I made you look!
All (girls): (Poppy: Said, I made you look!) I made you look!
Poppy: Yeah, I look good in my flowery dress (Aggie, Holly, Val: Show it off, girl!). But I'm cuter when my morning hair's a mess. 'Cause even with my queen cape on, bet I made you look!
All (girls): (Poppy: Said, I made you look!) I made you look!
After concluding the singing, Poppy sighed tiredly, saying, "Yes, I'm also a doo-wop singer now."
Trollex was eating a baguette before he spoke up, saying, "This might sound weird, but maybe all these new skills Poppy is able to do probably has something to do with her visions."
"What do you mean, Trollex," Aggie asked her boyfriend curiously.
Trollex explained, "Well, from what I can concur, I think it's like when someone loses one sense and others get stronger."
"So, y'all are sayin' since Poppy lost hurr visshuns, her visshun powuurr loss has now unlocked huurr ability ta have skills in othuurr things," Holly asked.
"My bro might be right, and on the plus side, we get all this tasty bread as a result of it," Synth commented happily.
Delta then came trotting into Poppy and Branch's cabin, saying, "Ay smell bread ayn' the doo-wops."
When she saw all the freshly baked bread, she was surprised, asking, "Who's bakin' bread"?
"Poppy, and it's amazing," Aggie said while offering Delta piece of her baguette.
Delta was a little surprised, saying while accepting the piece, "Come on, y'all. Ay've nevuurr seen Poppy bake bread befawe; ow ken y'all know it's good"?
However, the minute she tried the baguette piece, her taste buds were amazed, as she commented, "Holy haybales ayn' hoedown, that is good"!
Poppy sighed, trying to change the topic while saying, "Forget the bread."
"Ay ken't forget 'bout this here bread; this is the best thing ay've evuurr eaten," delta commented while trying another bite.
Poppy then asked, "Any words on my visions or if Dr. Quisenberry had called"?
"Nothin' yet on both those things," Delta replied while chewing, adding, "Sweet baby corn, this is amazin'."
Trollex then came forward, saying, while picking up another baguette, "You know, I'm not one to judge, but You know, I have a funny feeling about that Quisenberry guy. What if he took Poppy's visions and used them for one of his weird science experiments"?
"What kind of experiment would you even do with visions anyway," Val inquired while shrugging unsurely.
Aggie commented, "He doesn't appear to have any suspicious vibes around him, I highly doubt he would want to steal Poppy's visions."
"Yeah, ay ken sense when trouble's afoot, ayn' so far, my intuishun says he's good," Delta commented before trying another piece of the baguette bread, saying, "Ooh! did y'all ut agave in this?! It's so good"!
"Delta, put the bread down," Poppy shouted, getting more stressed out by the minute.
"Ay ken't out the bread down; it;'s way too good! Y'all are gonna make my cholesterol raase, but it's so worth it," Delt declared.
"Y'all calm down raheet now," Holly shouted.
Outside the room, Branch, the Snack Pack, the degetaes, and associates, all of them holding colorful ice cream cones dn enjoying the frosty treat, just like in Branch's vision, were standing there, facing the door.
"All right, an ice cream vision was a good start. Now what else you got in there," Demo asked the Pop king.
"Answers to math tests," Melody asked.
"Lottery numbers," Cooper asked.
"If Milton and I get married," Smidge asked, making her blush while saying, "I mean...uh...if I get stronger"?
Branch chuckled before saying, "Guys... You know I have to give these visions back to Poppy."
The group seemed a bit disappointed, before Minuet pointed out, "Come on; even the clothing outlet stores lets you keep something for two weeks before you have to return it."
"Think of it like a test trial period, give it a little run and see how it works," Rhythm suggested.
"You can explore more impossibilities with what your visions can allow you to see," Laguna added.
Branch knew his friends were making a valid point, saying, "That is true. Okay, fine. Two weeks it is. But, I don't want anybody seeing my vision face. So, just to be safe..." before he pulled out a pair of sunglasses and placed them over his eyes.
"Look at you, sneaky and stylish," Satin commented.
"You went from psychic to psy-chic,"Chenille added.
"We'll be out on the beach; meet us there if you want to hang ten with us," Stereo commented as the Snack Pack, delegates, and associates went to the beach.
"I'll meet you guys there; i'mjust gonna grab my visor," branch said after the group had gone out, and entered the cabin to grab his red visor, and walked in on a very surprising sight: Trollex and Delta were having a tug-of-war match over a crispy baguette, Poppy was close to freaking out in the kitchen, and Holly, Synth, Val, and Aggie were watching, trying to get the two to break the tug-of-war off.
"Dude, it's nor worth it! you can just get another piece of bread," Val told the Techno king.
"Delta, think ov your dignity! think ov your niece," Holly added.
Delta saw the Pop king standing there and shouted, "Branch! Branch! Get ovuurr here quick! your waafe made some delicious bread"!
Branchw as surprised, seeing Poppy hesitantly smile and blush, as he smiled, saying, "Ooh, you want me to try it"?
"Naw, ay want ya ta hold Trollex down," Delta replied, while Trollex kept tugging on the baguette, saying, "I'll never let go"!
"Bro, you got to let go! the bread ain't gonna go anywhere, yo," Synth shouted.
"Careful, Trollex! Don't hurt yourself doing this," Aggie called out in concern for her boyfriend.
Poppy saw Branch was wearing sunglasses and asked, "Branch, why are you wearing sunglasses inside"?
Trollex smirked while saying, "I think you're hiding your eyes because Poppy's visions flew into them and you don't want Poppy to see when you have vision face."
"What," almost everyone exclaimed, and the shock of the comment was enough to make Delta let go of the baguette, while Trollex laughed, running out of the room while saying, "Ha! Made you let go! Made you let go"!
Branch was worried he had gotten caught right away, and tried to play it off, saying, "You know that Trollex; always coming up with the craziest ideas to win his bread tug-of-war."
He picked up his red visor while saying, "Look, I gotta go; I'll see you later," and quickly walked out before anyone could question.
Luckily, no one seemed to believe the statement Trollex made earlier, but before they could even bring it up, Trollx re-entered the condo, his stomach inflated from being full of too much bread, and Trollex was holding his stomach, saying, "I'm in tremendous pain, but it was worth it."
"Awwww, Trollex," Aggie said, flying over to Trollex, hugging him close to her while saying, "Don't worry, I'll take care of you," and kissed him on the cheek, which helped Trollex alleviate some of the stomach pain.
In Trollex and Aggie's condo, Trollex was lying on the couch, holding his stomach in pain. He didn't regret eating the bread, it was very tasty, but he did regret eating too much of it, and now, his stomach was paying the price for it.
Aggie walked over to Trollex, carrying a cup of tea, saying, "Don't worry, Trollex; Delta will be back from the store soon with something to settle your stomach. In the meantime, here, have some tea."
Trollex smiled and accepted the cup of tea, saying, "Thanks, Aggie," and sipped the cup, saying, "I almost don't think I can ever eat bread again after that."
"Or maybe you can still eat it, but maybe not in such an excessive amount, so you don't eat yourself into a stomachache," Aggie told her boyfriend, both Trolls breaking into laughter.
Suddenly, Aggie and Trollex, at the same time, felt a vision coming together.
In both of their minds, their vision consisted of Dr. Quisenberry, who was looking at them, saying, "Now that I know where Poppy's powers are I'm going to take them."
When their visions ended, Aggie and Trollx both snapped back into reality and gasped, looking at one another.
"I had a vision," the couple said to one another, blushing and giggling in unison when they heard what each other said.
Aggie then quickly spoke up, saying, "Wait, what was your vision about, Trollex"?
"Was your vision of me giving birth to a bread baby," Trollex joked.
Aggie snickered, clutching her ribs before she cleared her throat and addressed, "No, no., you were right."
"about the bread baby," Trollex asked while raising his unibrow curiously.
"no, not about that; about what you said about Dr. Quisenberry; he is after Poppy's visions."
Trollex gasped, saying, "Oh no; what do we do"?
Aggie flew around, trying to think of an idea, stating, "There's only one thing we can do: we gotta find a way to infiltrate the Quisenberry center so that we can figure out his plans and stop him."
Trollex was surprised to hear Aggie suggest this, saying, "Timeout, you're suggesting we actually BREAK IN and go inside the research center?! I don't know, Aggie, but based on when I came in to break you out of prison, I know first hand doing something like this is wrong. What if we get caught by someone at the center"?
Aggie knew Trollex made a good point, replying with, "Yeah, it is definitely a very risky move. But what if we can find a way to have everyone out of the center? We could..throw a beach party! And invite Dr. Quisenberry and the other psychic MMTs to come"!
"Great idea, Aggie! That way, there'd be no one at the center, and it'd be easier for us to go in without the chance of us being seen by someone," Trollex added.
"Exactly! We could be in and out, and no Troll would be none the wiser...if you're up to doing it with me of course," Aggie said, looking at Trollex.
Trollex smiled and held Aggie's hand, saying, "Of course, you and me against the world. I got your back, boo," and quickly kissed Aggie, the pair sharing a sweet romantic moment.
After they separated from their kiss, Aggie asked, "Are you sure you'll be up for it, given your current "condition"?
Trollex held his stomach, saying, "I'll definitely manage as best I can, but what do we tell the other leaders and ambassadors? Or Poppy"?
"We let the leaders and ambassadors know we're running an "Errand," but we can't tell Poppy about this; I don't want to get her hopes up in case something does end up going wrong."
Trollex understood what Aggie meant, saying, "Got it. Ok, let's get everything set and put our plan into motion."
Suddenly, the silence of the room was broken by the sound of a tiny squeak noise, one that Aggie could tell where it was coming from when she saw Trollex's embarrassed/flustered facial expression as his stomach seemed to slowly deflate, and he no longer appeared ingested.
Once the flatulence noise stopped, Trollex sheepishly grinned, saying, "Now, let's get our plan into motion."
Aggie smiled as she and her boyfriend walked out of their cabin, planning out their next move.
Back on the beach, Branch, the Snack Pack, the delegates, and the associates were all sitting in beach chairs, enjoying the ice cream they got.
"Yo, this tastes even better than it looked back at the ice cream cart," Stereo commented while she bit into her waffle cone.
"Definitely one of the best visions you've had so far, Branch," Riff commented while licking his vanilla cone.
Branch even looked more relaxed about having visions now, saying as he plopped the last bit of his ice cream cone into his mouth, saying, "I know. Who knew having the ability to see the future could have some nice perks about it"?
Suddenly, Branch felt another vision coming and made the same vision face again.
In the new vision, he saw Dante holding hands with what looked like the hand of a Magic Pop Troll, who was revealed to be Darna, at a beach party.
When his vision ended, Branch returned to normal and was surprised.
"There's our favorite face," Rhythm commented when she and the others saw Branch had just had another vision.
"What was it about this time," Blues asked.
Branch explained, "This one was definitely an interesting one; you remember that female Magic Pop Troll from the center I was telling you guys about"?
"Yeah, Darna, the telekinetic telepath, right," Melody asked.
Branch nodded, saying, "I just had a vision that she and Dante were both at a party on the beach. They were standing together, and she was holding his hand."
"Ooh," the group said in interest/amazement.
"You did mention Dante seemed to find Darna cute when he first saw her," Minuet pointed out.
"So, what do you need to do to make this hand-holding thing happen," Prince D asked curiously.
Branch answered, "Well, we just need to throw a party on the beach, have the two be together in a spot, and make sure Dante has a holdable hand. But what beach party, though"?
Luckily, the group was about to get the answer to that question when Aggie and Trollex appeared on the beach, both looking particularly excited, as Aggie announced, "Whoo! We're throwing a beach party tonight, guys"!
"Be there and be ready to luau the night away," Trollex added before he and Aggie went to go set up the stuff needed for the beach party.
"That one, that beach party," Cooper declared excitedly as the group, and Branch were excited to see if this vision was gonna come true as well.
A little while later, the beach was decorated for a fun party! Lights were hung to illuminate the palm trees, there were two tables decked with snacks and drinks, and fun beach-themed decorations to make it look very festive.
All of the Normal Troll, Dr. Quisenberry, and the psychic MMTs, were currently on the beach, congregating together and either talking with friends or were standing around, having some fun. Most Trolls wore their swimsuits, except the Normal Funk Trolls and Normal Techno Trolls since they didn't need swimsuits.
Aggie and Trollex both stood on a tall rock together, with Aggie saying to everyone, "Welcome, everyone! our fellow friends, and our new friends from the Quisenberry Center. I am so happy you all could make it. You all made it, right? Everybody's accounted for"?
After quickly making sure everyone was there, and everyone was, Aggie added, "Good to know. Just making sure no one's left out. Okay, please enjoy the bread, the cheese, and the DJ."
Trolex then whispered to Aggie, "Uh, Aggie, not to sound disappointing, but we don't have a DJ. Or cheese."
"Then, enjoy the bread," Aggie quickly shouted, still trying to keep the mood of the party up.
Then, out of nowhere, there was a flower that emerge from the ground, which opened up, revealing Poppy, who held out a deck of cards, saying, "Pick a card, any card."
"And apparently, a magician," Aggie added, mainly out of confusion.
"On the plus side, everyone seems to be having fun, so whatever she's doing is working," Trollex pointed out.
"Plus, that entrance was a good way for Poppy to practice her flower magic a bit," Aggie added.
Aggie then saw Dr. Quisenberry watching the party and whispered to Trollex, "Look at Quisenberry over there. Vision stealer. Smiling that fake smile. I hate phony people."
"I feel you, nothing makes me angrier than seeing fake people faking fake fake stuff," Trollex replied quietly.
When the couple saw the Magic Classical scientist approaching them, Aggie forced a smile and tried to act like she wasn't suspicious, saying, "Oh, hey! Hello! Welcome to our beach bash, Dr. Quisenberry! so good to see you"!
Dr. Quisenberry happily answered back, "You and your friends too, Aggie. And I must thank you. This party was a wonderful idea. I even wore my new swim trunks," before pointing at his swim trunks, which were white with blue-and-green fish designs on them.
Trollex felt a little weirded out, saying, "Did ya," before adding, "Um, speaking of swimming, we need to swim out of here 'cause we got to go get a... Get a rabbit for Poppy to pull out of a hat."
"Ta-da," Poppy exclaimed while pulling a small rabbit out of a top hat, impressing the crowd that was watching her tricks.
Trollex and Aggie bit their lips, seeing that Poppy had already pulled out what they had initially said.
Quickly changing it, Trollex pretended to fix his "Mistake", saying, "Did I say rabbit? I meant radish. It's a very nice trick. Bye," before he and Aggie quickly walked away, heading to the center.
Meanwhile, Branch, Stereo, McJagger, and Gust saw Dante grabbing some punch to drink while Darna was nearby, chatting with Carlita, not too far away from him.
"There they are," Gust stated.
"Now, if we can just get them together, they'll be able to stand together, they'll get to have their little hand-holding moment, just like in your vision, Branch," McJagger commented.
"DC's gonna be thanking us after this," Stereo added.
Branch was nervous about making this happen, but at the same time, he decided to try and roll with it. After all, if his first vision had come true, and the second one had come true, then this one was gonna come true too, right?
Back at the research center, Trollex and Aggie slowly opened the door and peeked their heads in to see if the view was all clear.
When it looked like no one, and nothing, was around them, Aggie whispered to her boyfriend, "Come on, Trollex."
She flew up quietly, so she could sneak around without leaving any footprints and used her phone as a flashlight to light up the currently dark room.
While looking, she saw Trollex moving his fins very awkwardly, as if he was stepping on flaming coals.
She whispered, "Trollex, what are you doing"?
Trollex whispered back, "I'm tiptoeing, so my fins don't make a sound."
Aggie smiled, saying, "You look quite cute doing that, but your fins are like a feather in high tops, so you don't need to worry about making a sound."
Feeling reassured, Trollex snuck around normally as he and Aggie looked around together.
"What exactly are we looking for," Trollex asked curiously.
Aggie answered, "Anything that proves Quisenberry has plans to get his hands on Poppy's visions."
The couple noticed a laptop on a nearby table and approached it cautiously, seeing that it was on. Aggie sat at the chair right behind the table, in front of the laptop, and prepared to type into it.
Back at the party, everyone was having a lot of fun.
Neon and Dr. Jeweline were approaching Poppy, with Neon saying, "Seriously, queen Poppy, this bread is amazing"!
Poppy then turned around, holding a large red tray that had friend shrimp eggrolls inside, saying, "You like my bread? You should try my eggrolls. Teryaki shrimp roll"?
"Since when does Poppy make eggrolls," DJ Suki asked curiously while watching.
Smidge was currently stuffing some in her mouth from a plate of eggrolls she had gotten earlier, saying in a muffled/full-mouth voice, "And why hasn't she done it sooner?! These are so good"!
Dr. Jeweline and Neon both took an eggroll to try, while Poppy grinned, saying, "Itadakimas."
Dr. Jeweline tasted it, saying to Poppy, "Arigato, Poppy-San."
"Wow, I didn't know you spoke Japanese," Poppy commented, impressed.
"I took a Japanese language class in high school, so I learned a few things," Dr. Jeweline replied.
Back with Dante, Branch signaled Stereo, who used her hair to gently push Dante towards Darna, much to the Classical composer's surprise, while Gust and McJagger did the same, gently pushing Darna towards Dante.
Both Trolls looked at one another, as Dante greeted the Magic Pop Troll with a "Hey."
"Hey," Darna replied back, adding, "Cool party."
"Yeah, yeah," Dante replied, feeling awkward for some reason.
Both Trolls saw a platter with only one lemon bar on it, and they both reached out to grab it at the same time, placing their hands on top of one another, making both Trolls shyly reel their hands back, grinning nervously.
"Ooh! they almost did it, yo," Stereo whispered to the boys.
"But they look pretty shy, ay don't know if they're gonna even feel comfortable 'nough ta hold hands," Gust addressed.
"Don't fret; usually, after a period of shyness, two Trolls will ease up and feel more comfortable being in each other's presence. We just have to let them take their time and adjust a bit," McJagger commented.
Branch was watching nervously, biting his lower lip while doing so.
Darna soon finally broke the awkward silence, saying, "Uh, hey, so uh, just curious, how come you didn't grab the lemon bar"?
Dante fiddled with his fingers, saying, "Oh, well, uh...funny story: I, uh, just felt like you should have it. I've already had three croquettes, and I didn't want to appear greedy. Plus, you appeared to really want it, so, as any kind Troll, I'd wanted to let you have it."
Then, Darna stated while looking away, "Look, um...no offense or anything, but uh...I'm not... I'm not comfortable talking to Trolls without psychic abilities. So, bye," before she walked away.
Dante watched, feeling a bit sad.
"What happened, yo," Stereo asked, surprised, along with Gust and McJagger, that the two didn't seem to hold hands like Branch said they would in his vision.
Branch felt really bad for Dante; he thought that the vision he had would come true, but...it didn't, and now, his friend was left reeling in the effects because of it.
Branch sighed, saying, "I'm sorry, guys, I don't think my vision's gonna come true," as his friends watched in worry, feeling bad for Branch.
At the research center, Aggie was doing her best to type on the computer, but it was so dark, and there was only so much light the computer screen could produce on its own, so, she had to carefully type with two fingers so she wouldn't make any mistakes.
Trollex, seeing his girlfriend struggling, asked, "Hey, Aggue, you sure you don't want me to type"?
Aggie replied, "I appreciate the offer, Trollex, but it's ok, I'm good."
Trollex smiled, saying, "Ok, but just as a heads up: you know you have eight other fingers."
Aggie giggled, saying, "I know, but these two," and pointed her index fingers, saying, "Won't make mistakes."
Trollex watched Aggie try to slowly type a little longer before he sat next to her, saying, "Why not let me give it a try then"?
Aggie pushed the laptop to Trollex, saying, "Sure, go right ahead. But be careful, it might not be easy to-,"
"Done," Trollex declared after successfully and quickly typing into the laptop with ease.
Aggie was impressed, while Trollex mentioned, "When you've been working a DJ mixer as long as i have, dexterity can come with ease."
The couple began to look into the computer, searching for any clues that would give them about Dr. Quisenberry or his plans.
Trollex then saw something that was interesting, saying, "Hey, Aggie, there's a file on you in here."
Aggie was curious, saying, "Oh, yeah. I let Dr. Quisenberry collect a bit of data on me and my psychic visions after we brought in Poppy. Let me see that."
She opened the file and read it, smiling, saying, "Yep, that's me."
Trollex saw something on the file that made him say, "Sometimes gets visions confused or misunderstood."
"Yep, still me," Aggie replied, feeling a little bit embarrassed by that fact.
Then, she found another file that made her eyes widen in surprise, saying, "Whoa. I think I found something on Quisenberry."
"You did? What does it say," Trollex asked.
Aggie quickly accessed the file, and the couple read it over together, and what they found was so shocking it made Aggie comment worryingly, "Oh no. This is worse than I thought."
"This is bad," Trollex added, as the pair looked at one another in worry for their friend Poppy; this could make or break if they could even track her visions and return them to her...before something bad happens.
Back at the beach party, Branch was telling the Snack Pack, the delegates, and associates, excluding the leaders and ambassadors since they didn't know Branch was psychic yet, what happened.
"So, what did she say to the sparkly pink-haired conductor Troll," Tiny Diamond asked.
"She said she only feels comfortable with Trolls with psychic abilities," Branch stated, adding, "And now, Dante is left feeling really bad."
"Dang, that's pretty harsh, especially with what she said," Sid commented.
"Too bad it wasn't you she was talking to because I think she'd be more comfortable talking to you since you're a Troll with psychic abilities," Demo stated.
"No, I'm not Demo, Branch told the Rock Troll, adding sadly, "I'm just a Troll who's borrowing psychic abilities. And right now, I don't even know what good they're doing me. My vision said that Dante and Darna were gonna hold hands and... she doesn't even feel uncomfortable around him."
"Branch, don't let that get you down. So, a vision didn't turn out how you thought it would, but that happens sometimes," Biggie said reassuringly.
"Yeah, sometaames, they end up occurin' in ways y'all don't see comin'. Maybe it just needs ayy lil' mawe taame," Buckaroo added.
Meanwhile, Darna was telling Neon what had happened, saying, "And on top of that, he was being generous, which was nice, but it just felt so awkward."
"Really? How embarrassing. You always do this every time you meet someone new you're unfamiliar with," Neon addressed.
"I do not," Darna argued back.
Neon grinned, easily reading Darna's mind, saying, "Thinking back to your first day of kindergarten"?
Darna gasped, saying in a shouting whisper, "You swore never to bring that up"!
Branch and the others were watching while Satin commented, "Could this party get any weirder"?
"how would it," Chenille asked curiously.
Then, to everyone's surprise, Poppy, who was standing by one of the snack tables and was under a metal lantern, started to sing...opera music, as most of the guests were impressed to see the Pop Queen belt out something so...out of her league so beautifully.
"Wow, when did poppy gain such an interest in opera," Trollzart commented.
"she's beltin' it out mawe beautifully than ayy Country serenade," Holly added.
"Eh, at least it's not boring enough to make anyone fall asleep," Barb commented while crossing her arms.
All of the Normal Trolls were surprised, especially Branch and his group, with Laguna saying, "Note: and to think I almost said no."
While Poppy continued to sing opera, Guy Diamond saw Dante and Darna almost coming close together and whispered, "Here they come; third time's the charm."
He and Tiny secretly used their hair and pushed the two trolls, without them knowing who was pushing them, together, and the two had another awkward silence.
"Hey," Darna said, nervously twiddling her thumbs.
"Hey," Dante replied, nervously smiling, unsure what to say or do.
Darna then spoke up, saying, "Hey. Look, I wasn't being completely honest before. I'm not uncomfortable around you 'cause you're not psychic. I'm uncomfortable around you because I think you're pretty cool."
"kindergarten all over again," Neon whispered, reading Darna's mind.
"Neon, please quit it," Dante told the Magic Techno Troll sharply, making the Magic Techno Troll smirk and stop.
Dante then regained his composure and asked slowly, So, you really think I'm cool"?
"Uh, yeah, I do," Darna replied, not feeling as shy as before.
"It's working, they're talking it out," Rhythm whispered to the others.
"And they don't seem a as nervous as before," Blues added.
Suddenly, Branch felt another vision coming on, as he made the vision face and saw the vision.
In his head, it showed Poppy, who was still under the lantern, and Sara Lee, who was in front of her, almost off-screen, sparking, and electric sparks zapping the coconuts above her head, almost making it fall.
When Branch's vision ended, he gasped, looking up at Poppy, who was still singing opera, and sighed in relief, saying to himself, "Ok, she seems alright, for now."
Back with Dante and Darna, Darna was telling the composer, "Anyway, sorry I was acting weird. I was just afraid I'd say something stupid that'd make you run away."
"Well, that'd never happen. I'd never run away from you. You're pretty cool yourself, so...," Dante stated as he and Darna nervously reached their hands out and held them together.
The Snack Pack, delegates, and associates were quietly cheering while Branch smiled, feeling happy his vision had come true.
Then, everyone turned their heads and saw Poppy belting out a really strong, lovely, high note.
But, it did have consequences because the music was making Sara Lee's buns spark electricity again, something Dr. Quisenberry noticed, making him say, "Oh, no, not again! Don't touch anything metal"!
Sara Lee sent a stray spark towards a metal bowl, making the bread rolls inside get tossed up into the air.
Branch gasped and realized that the metal lantern Poppy was under was metal, and just like in his vision, Sara Lee started to spark and sent some jolts toward it.
He ran to Poppy, shouting, "Get down," and dove forward, tackling startled Poppy to the ground, saving her just before a strong jolt of electricity was unleashed and made the lantern fall down onto the sand.
Everyone gasped in surprise when they saw Branch's heroic deed.
"You guys okay," Low-Note Jones asked as he and Val ran up to Poppy and Branch and helped them up to their feet.
Poppy was catching her breath, saying, "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
"We're fine," Branch addressed.
Poppy gave Branch a huge hug, saying, "Thanks, Brnahc," before she separated from him and asked, " But how did you know that lantern was gonna fall on me"?
Branch felt worried about telling Poppy the truth, so, he quickly made up an excuse, saying, "You know, it was my... my lovetuition. I knew my wife was gonna be in danger."
Poppy initially seemed to buy it, saying, "Oh, well. I must have lovetuition too 'cause," before she said in a serious voice, "I usually know when you're lying. Like right now, Branch."
Branch sighed sadly before admitting, "Okay, fine. I've been getting visions."
Poppy was shocked to hear this, saying, "What"?
"What," the leaders and ambassadors said in disbelief, surprised to hear this.
Branch explained to poppy, "Ever since that beaker broke at the Quisenberry Center. I don't know, I guess your psychic power must have gone into me. I'm sorry."
Poppy, to Branch's surprise, became really, really, really excited and shouted, "Yes! Yes," and hugged Branch, spinning him around, and kissing him right on the lips.
Surprised by this reaction, Branch asked his wife, "Poppy, you're not mad"?
Poppy, first, had a very angered facial expression, saying, "Of course I'm mad! Branch, I'm furious," before she smiled in relief, saying, "But this means my visions aren't lost"!
The realization then hit Poppy, as she told Branch, "You just stole them"1
Branch quickly shot his hands up and defended himself, saying, "Poppy, no, I didn't steal them. I just wanted to see how it felt to be like you, Aggie, and the other leaders for a little while. you all have gotten to have visions and...i felt a little left out. I just wanted to experience what it was like for a bit."
That, Poppy understood well, as she smiled, saying, "I get that. Pretty cool, right"?
Branch nodded, saying, "Yeah, really, really cool. But they're yours. You should have them back, Poppy."
"Thanks, Branch," Poppy replied as the Pop rulers shared another romantic kiss together.
"Awww," all the Normal Trolls and MMTs said, thinking the moment was super sweet.
"Whel, at least this now solves the mystery behaand where the visshuns went," Delta commented.
"Yeah, they were safe and sound with a trusted fried the entire time," Quincy added.
Branch shuffled his foot, facing the other leaders while saying, "I don't know about "trusted"; I didn't tell you guys at first when I realized I had my first vision. i'lla dmit that was probably selfish of me to do, and I'm sorry."
"Don't sweat it, dude, we get it; when you experience your first vision, it can be pretty intense and the feeling is quite surreal," Barb explained.
"What matters most is hat you kept the visions safe and didn't use them for any thing bad. That proves you to be trustworthy more than anything else." Essence addressed.
Dr. Quisenberry then interrupted by saying to Dr. Jeweline, "So let me get this straight: Poppy's visions ended up in Branch"?
Dr. Jeweline nodded, saying, "Judging by what we saw, this proves me theory that psychic transmosis is possible"!
"Well, it certainly makes my job a lot easier," Dr. Quisenberry added.
Suddenly, Aggie and Trollex came running in, with Aggie shouting, "Quisenberry, freeze"!
The scientists turned around, confused, asking Aggie, "What'd I do"?
"Not you, the little tiny hand one, sleeveless," Trollex commented sternly, referring to Dr. Jeweline.
Dr. Jeweline was now the perplexed MMT, asking, "Me? What did I do"?
Aggie explained while placing her hands on her hips, "I'll tell you what you did: you invented a machine to extract our friend Poppy's visions. Why? Because you are the only normal one in a family full of psychics, and you wanted a taste! Admit it! You sucked Poppy's visions out and bottled 'em up for yourself"!
"Woah, yo, timeout," Synth shouted as he and the other Normal Trolls approached the two.
Branch walked up to Aggie, saying, "Aggie, Trollex, Mom, Jeweline doesn't have Poppy's visions; I do."
"I'm sorry, roll that back now, what," Trollex asked, confused.
"Wait, Branch is this true," Aggie asked the Pop king.
Branch nodded, saying, "It's true. Ever since that beaker broke I've been getting visions."
"Yeah, he was just telling us all about it," Dante commented.
Aggie and Trollex felt a bit sheepish that they were just about to jump to conclusions, Aggie saying, "Our bad, guys."
"Yeah, we're sorry," Trollex added.
Dr. Quisenberry then approached the two, saying, "But this is good news, Aggie. Now that I know where Poppy's powers are, I'm going to take them."
Aggie and Trollex silently gasped, realizing that this was the vision they both had together earlier.
Then, Dr. Quisenberry stuffed an eggroll in his mouth and added while chewing his food, "And keep them safe until we can get them back in queen Poppy."
"Oh," Trollex and Aggie said in unison, realizing that he was never gonna take the visions; he was gonna store them so he could place them back into Poppy when they get the chance.
"Trollex, that was my vision," Aggie told her boyfriend.
"Mine too, Aggie," Trollex added, "Except for the eggroll part and the part where he's gonna keep them safe."
"Yep. Guess I misunderstood it again," Aggie commented, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Trollex reassured his girlfriend by holding her hand, saying, "Hey, I misunderstood it too. So, you're not alone."
Aggie smiled, saying, "Yep, that's us," and kissed Trollex on the cheek, both Trolls laughing. I didn't get it right again.
Aggie then asked Branch, "Wait, Nia. You had visions in you this whole entire time and didn't tell anybody"?
"Well, no, I didn't exactly not tell anybody."
"He told us first," Cooper declared, with the Snack Pack, delegates, and associates nodding in agreement.
"They're pretty cool, huh," Trollex then asked Branch.
"The coolest! It was like watching a mini clip in my own head," Branch replied.
Poppy then asked Dr. Quisenberry, "So, Dr. Quisenberry, Dr. Jeweline, think you can put my visions back in me, if it's possible"?
Both MMTs nodded while Dr. Jeweline explained, "Yes, I can use the ocular extraction goggles to reverse the process later tonight if you want.
Poppy eagerly nodded, saying, "Yeah, that will be great; thanks"!
Dr. Jeweline then stated, "This is why I invented my machine. Not to do evil. But to do good," before she left and went to enjoy the party.
Watching the Magic Disco Troll leave, Aggie asked in confusion, "I said "my bad." What else does she want," and got some unsure shrugs as a reply.
"Beats me, but I'm getting my visions back tonight, guys," Poppy declared, with her friends cheering in agreement.
"This calls for a celebration; let's party," Val shouted as the group went to go rejoin the party and have some fun together.
A little while later, during the party, Branch was feeling very exhausted and went to sit under a palm tree to rest for a bit, napping while he did so.
But he didn't see or hear that while he was asleep, Dr. Jeweline snuck up to the Pop King and quietly approached him, placing a set of black, sleek, mechanical goggles over his eyes.
A light glowed from the goggles before it went away, as Dr. Jeweline picked up the goggles and grinned, saying quietly to herself, "The visions are finally mine."
It appeared she had gotten Branch's visions! Was this Magic Disco Troll hiding something? Or is there more to her intentions than meets the eye?
