Plot
[]

Poppy tries to relieve her stress by scrapbooking due to the upcoming Royal Review, a survey where Trolls decide if Poppy has done a perfect performance as queen or not. Unable to keep herself from getting so nervous, she desperately seeks the help of Smidge. Smidge's plan is to do a preliminary Royal Review of the Trolls, and then send the votes back to Poppy so she can finally know her performance.

An hour later, Poppy heads toward their meeting place: the Black Rock. Smidge successfully surveyed every Troll in the village and brings Poppy the results. She joyfully rummages the pile as it seems that all the Trolls will give her an excellent review on her performance. However, her relief ends when someone actually gave her a bad review. Poppy begins to fear that when the main voting event happens she'll be a let-down to the village, but then realizes that there's still time left to change the mind of the Troll who gave her the bad review. Smidge tells her neither one of them know who gave it, but Poppy confidently assumes Branch gave it.

Poppy approaches Branch in a very enthusiastic manner, to which Branch is already suspicious of her sudden behavior. Poppy assures Branch she just wants to help with no motive to do so. Branch accepts her help on his chores. At the Bunker, he has Poppy do "sweat harvesting" to replenish his sweat supply, by tirelessly running on a treadmill while Branch collects her sweat, clear out actual dust bunnies, clean and repaint different sectors of the bunker, and even harness honey from a beehive. Lastly, Branch leads Poppy outside for one last task, to which she thinks involves "adorable" Cuddle Pups, but he actually tasks her to dig out a large mound of manure for fertilizer. She finally refuses and breaks, and begs him to tell her if Branch plans to give her a good or bad review. This confirms Branch's suspicions that Poppy did this for some other reason, but he reveals he'll give a good review. She rejoices, which makes Branch confused, Poppy explains it's because he was the one who gave a "frowny face" review during the preliminary, but Branch reveals he actually voted for a "smiley face".

Since Branch didn't give the bad review, Poppy realizes that it could be any Troll, and that she has to impress the whole village before the voting starts in 10 minutes. As Trolls line up and prepare to vote, Poppy halts the proceeding as she gives the Trolls gifts of her gratitude: Cuddle Pups. Branch warns Poppy that Cuddle Pups are dangerous, but Poppy doesn't see how the adorable creatures can be so dangerous. Branch points out that their mother is the dangerous one; a huge Cuddle Pup aggressively scares the Trolls. In the ensuing chaos, King Peppy arrives and wonders what caused this mayhem. Poppy grabs him and confesses that it's her fault after being so caught up with the Royal Review. Peppy understands her because he was the one who gave the frowny face. It was meant to teach her daughter not to be afraid of being imperfect.

With the village still under attack by the mother Cuddle Pup, Poppy tries to come up with a solution. She diverges the creature into chasing her, lures it away from Troll Village and just when the creature lunges to grab Poppy, Smidge swings in with her hair and catches her, causing the mother Cuddle Pup to hit the tree hard instead. She finally abandons her aggression on Troll Village.

The Royal Review commences, and so far the results have been good for Poppy, but she decides to skip the entire event so she can rest. Peppy tells her that she's near for a perfect performance, but whether or not the results determined she had a perfect performance, she can accept whatever outcome knowing that there's always room for her to improve. Branch then approaches and informs her the good news: the mother puff left out "manure" near Troll Village. He asks her to join him in harvesting it for more fertilizer, but she runs away in decline, apologizing for being a let-down.
