Plot
[]

Biggie, Poppy and Branch are watching Mr. Dinkles, who according to Biggie has been down lately. Mr. Dinkles befriended a group of caterpillars that became butterflies, and is depressed his friends are gone. Trying to find a way to boast the worm's ego lands the Trolls at the Bergen Town pet show.

Branch thinks the show is a bad idea while Poppy is a lot more positive. When Biggie considers that Mr. Dinkles has a chance, Groth ridicules him. Poppy asks him who he is to judge Mr. Dinkles, to which Groth replies that he happens to be the pet show's judge. This makes Poppy shut up. Biggie shows the doubting Bergens that Mr. Dinkles has talent in dancing; they laugh as there wasn't much to the dance. They show Biggie the talents of their own pets, which are far superior than Mr. Dinkles' dance.

In the preparation area, Biggie covers his pet worm's ears and is honest about Mr. Dinkles' chances. Nangus overhears them talking and offers his services, stating he got banned for constantly winning at the pet shows. He hypnotizes Mr. Dinkles into being a champion, which changes him completely into a much fiercer worm.

Mr. Dinkles begins to win every round he enters, having a firm butt and a strong presence of superiority. When Poppy congratulates Mr. Dinkles, she finds the worm is very cold towards her. A Bergen contestant also tries to give his congratulations to Mr. Dinkles, but he snubs his fallen competition, upsetting him and his pet. Biggie believes Mr. Dinkles will never return, unless he wins his self-esteem.

As he waits for his turn in the talent round, Biggie overhears Bernice trying to get love from her own pet Num-Nums, but the hyena snubs her as she cries over the loss of the pet she once loved. Bernice blames the rejection on his previous win. This causes Biggie to realize the same thing is already happening to Mr. Dinkles, and if he wins it could be disastrous.

When he turns around, Mr. Dinkles has already gone onstage. Biggie rushes out and breaks the hypnotizing training by playing the music Mr. Dinkles previously danced to. King Gristle Jr., who has been the commentator throughout the event is in awe of what is going on, but the Bergens boo the worm. Num-Nums ends up winning the competition, but Biggie is satisfied with the turnout.

Trivia
[]

  • The title is a reference to the song Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
  • This is the first episode to have Mr. Dinkles' name in the title.
  • Groth saying that the Trolls are laughing at him rather than with him, immediately after mocking Mr. Dinkles, is a nod back to "Bad News Bergens", where Groth and his team humiliated and laughed at the Trolls; Biggie didn't get the thing and laughed along until Poppy pointed it out.
  • This episode was a subject of one of the Trolls Mad Libs stories.
