Synopsis[]
Branch's plans go wrong when it comes to drive Sky Toronto away.
Plot[]
In his bunker, Branch is assembling a 40,000-piece jigsaw in the peace and quiet of his own home. All of a sudden, loud crashes cause him to be alarmed, he investigates only to find that Sky Toronto is behind the noise.
Confronting Sky gets Branch nowhere, as Sky states he has come out to the quieter parts for some R&R&D "Rest, Research and Development". Sky is constructing a vacation pod right outside the reach of Branch's bunker.
Branch seeks Poppy, who is welcoming new saplings into the village. Poppy doesn't see a problem as Branch doesn't own the forest and can't declare his bunker part of his area. Her annoyance with him makes her chop a sapling in half, causing her to get annoyed with him.
Back in his bunker, Branch can't get on with Sky due to all the noise. This causes Branch to spread fertilizer around, and thus a neighbor war begins. During the row, Sky makes Gary sound out a horn sound when a button is pushed, making Branch angry. He cuts Sky's tie "Sky Jr." in half, causing Sky to mourn his loss.
Sky mourns by holding a funeral for his tie and leaves Troll Village. Branch is left the winner. As he enjoys the quiet life, Poppy demands Branch to come out and fix everything he has caused straight away. Without Sky, the party shop isn't functioning and can't supply the village all the things they need. Poppy tells Branch to either bring Sky back or run his factory.
Branch tries to run the factory, but messes up. This leaves him having to find Sky. He does so and Sky agrees to come back, but also not to encroach on Branch's privacy. Sky is handed "Skytina", his new tie and sets off. As Branch's life goes back to normal, he accidentally finds one last trap that Sky left behind.

Trivia[]
- Cooper being on Sky's bed when he wakes up is a reference to a scene in The Godfather, where the character Jack Woltz wakes up to find a horse head on his bed.
- A "neighbor war" is when people residing next to each other or "neighbors" don't get along and try to cause hassle for each other. The "war" can be one neighbor victimizing the other (forcing them to defend their priority), or both neighbors constantly having a go at each other.
