"So, if-if you're Branch's bro," Poppy began, her mind racing, "That means all of the other BroZone bro's are Branch's Bros too!" Poppy gasped, "Branch why didn't you tell me? Or you Aurora?" "Because it's complicated," Both replied, backs turned to John Dory, "Oh sweetie, because you weren't in the band," Poppy assumed which caused Aurora to snort, John Dory chuckling, "Oh he was in the band alright,"

"What?! No way, which one was he?" "Bitty B," John Dory revealed, "I still prefer my Blue Berry," Aurora mumbled, causing Branch to smile for a moment and lightly nudge her, the action catching John Dory's attention, his eyes softening at the sight. Poppy and John Dory began to list all the things Bitty B had that Branch didn't currently, which made Branch upset.

"And.." he sang, "A falsetto made of gold, not that anyone cared," he argued, turning around, "Besides, they stopped being my brothers the day they walked out on me and never came back. Leaving Aurora to pick up where they left and I'll tell you what, she was there for me every second since, not like any of you ever cared to come back." Aurora felt tears prick her eyes, a sense of emotion rushing over her at the memories of her taking care of Branch.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Branch that's not fair. I did come back, but no one was there." John Dory started,  "You never should've left," Aurora said, eyes turning to her figure that seemed more closed off than it ever was before, "You were the oldest and you walked out like a child throwing a tantrum, not even Branch threw tantrums like that as a child," Aurora sniffled.

"It wasn't until I heard about you saving the world from the Rock-Apocalypse that I realized you were even still alive," John Dory walked closer to his brother and teen love, "Oh how sweet, he realized we were still alive," Branch rolled his eyes, "Twenty years too late," he snapped, backing up a little when Poppy came in between them and Aurora came over to comfort him, just like she'd always done.

"Sorry, he gets hangry when he skips breakfast," Poppy tried to excuse his behavior, but Branch wasn't having it, "I did have breakfast! Aurora made me avocado toast, with two poached eggs and cayenne for a little kick, and as always it was delightful!" Branch yelled out, Poppy taking him to the side.

"Branch what's going on?" "The real question is what's going on with him? I bet the only reason he's here is because he needs something," Poppy tried to deny the claim, "No he doesn't, he's your brother,"

"Branch I'm gonna be straight with you, I need something," John Dory revealed.

"And there it is," "Come on, man. I'm trying here," Poppy glowered at John Dory. "I'm over this," Branch went to walk away but John Dory stopped him, "Wait, wait, it's about Floyd," Aurora gasped, walking over, "What's wrong with Floyd?" Even if she was mad, she still obvious cared for the brothers.

"He's in trouble, you guys," John Dory began to say how he hadn't heard from him after the band broke up, but got a letter one night saying he was captured and needed help. John Dory ventured out to Mount Rageous by himself and found Floyd, who was having his talent sucked out for the two 'superstars' who had no talent of their own and wasn't able to save him, thus leaving him with the only option to find all of his brothers.

"So you need to get the band back together, and sing the Perfect Family Harmony?" Poppy summarized, "Yeah," John Dory nodded, Branch instantly thinking it was a horrible idea, only to get cast over by Poppy, "The three of us are in!" Poppy jumped, "Wait three?" Aurora asked, but didn't get a reply as Branch dragged Poppy off to the side. 

"So," John Dory started only to get shot down, "Yeah, I don't wanna talk to you right now Johnathan," Aurora broke out the full first name, making him flinch, "Yeah, I guess I deserve that too," He mumbled, scratching the back of his neck. "You do look good though," He complimented, sending his crooked smile her way, that same smile that she had trouble resisting as teens, even harder now after twenty years.

John Dory noticed Aurora had gotten dark in the cheeks, her eyes glancing up at him quickly before turning away to see that Branch had agreed to go.

The ground began to rumble, "Hey looks like our ride is here!" John Dory called, a living mobile home popping out of the dirt, landing on the ground and panting, looking at all of the new trolls. "Meet Rhonda, ya'll. Ain't she a beaut?" John Dory asked, Rhonda licking all over Aurora and Poppy, covering them in glitter. Aurora couldn't help the laugh that escaped her, reaching her hands out to pet the cute house. "I guess she likes us?" "Yeah she does, or she's marking you as prey. You can never quite tell,"

"Uh, guys. If you don't mind, I cannot wait another minute to marry this gorgeous specimen," Gristle interrupted, kissing Bridget's hand and causing the girl to get all antsy, "I now pronounce you, Husband and Wife," The officiant declared, Aurora smiling at the display as the two pounced on each other kissing and rolling around. "Awe, those two are so beautiful together," she whimpered, Poppy leaning on her with a smile too.

"All aboard who's going aboard, let's roll," John Dory called, opening Rhonda as the four Trolls climbed inside. "Bye everybody," Poppy called out, the others wishing her luck as Rhonda ran off down the street with the four trolls inside.

"We forgot to bring clothes," Branch thought out loud, only for Aurora to clear her throat, "Says you," and pulled some clothes out from under her dress, handing them to Poppy and Branch. "Whoa, how'd you do that," Aurora just winked at Poppy who squeaked in amazement. "Always full of surprises, aren't you Sweet Peach," John Dory chuckled, walking beside her only for her to turn away, hair hitting John Dory in the face, "Did you hear something, Branch?" Branch laughed, covering it up with a cough, "No, sorry,"

John Dory sighed, going over to the kitchen to start making some drinks. Branch and Poppy got changed, Aurora leaving the room to do that same once they were done. "Alright, Operation Family Harmony is on and poppin'," Branch was elated, before noticing Poppy next to his face, "What?" "Oh nothing," Poppy shrugged, "It just seems like you're a little excited," glancing back at her boyfriend with a smile who shook his head, "Uh, it has nothing to do with my brothers,"

"All right, all right, Tiny, Branch, Poppy, Ms. Aurora and this random dude, on another musical adventure, filled with heart, hilarity and happiness," Tiny Diamonds voice came from the intercom up front, Poppy rushing up to see the baby sitting in the drivers seat. "Tiny! What are you doing here?" "Well Aunt Poppy, I am no longer a baby, I'm a big boy now. And I'm on a man-sized rite of passage to learn lessons of life, courage and maybe love." Poppy fawned over the baby, "Aww," Branch walked up with a look of indifference on his face, "You know Aurora is gonna scold you," Tiny Diamond looked scared for a second before turning to look at John Dory, who had a worried expression, "Uh, should we be letting a baby drive?"

"Absolutely not," Aurora came back into the main part of Rhonda, "Tiny Diamond," Aurora spoke, walking up front to look at the baby who flashed big, puppy eyes, "Yes Ms. Aurora," "Does your father know where you are?" "Maybe," Tiny Diamond couldn't help but act like an actual baby around Aurora, her motherly nature brought it out in him. "But look, I've got my learner's permit," and pulled out an obviously fake permit, showing 'Adulty McManface,' and a picture of Tiny Diamond with a mustache.

"Who is Adulty McManface?" Poppy read it, "The better question is, Are you a narc?" Tiny Diamond caught Aurora's eyes looking at him, turning to her, "Please Ms. Aurora?" Aurora smiled at him, "Alright, just this once," Branch and Poppy smiled at each other, while John Dory could only give a soft look to Aurora, this suited her, taking care of kids. Clearing his throat, "Alright, enough chit chit Adulty McManface, step on it!"
