Plot
[]

The episode begins with Poppy explaining via a scrapbook that every young Troll learns how to control a flyer critter with the help of an adult Troll. After a week of training, the young Trolls get to show off their skills in a race named "The Junior Flyer Grand Prix". Priscilla draws the conclusion that their next step is pairing with a adult and asks when. Poppy says that they're doing it right now. Among the volunteers to help are Guy Diamond, Aspen Heitz and Branch. The kids are told to draw a name out of the Fuzzling and find their partner.

Poppy goes to Branch and tells her that she's proud he agreed to be a mentor, but to remember they're just kids and they respond to fun a lot more than Branch's pragmatic severity. Keith then suddenly jump-hugs Branch to say that he's his mentor. Branch states he had a 47-step plan, but Poppy told him to keep it fun. He then presents Marshtato squares, saying that he knew Poppy was going to tell him that. Branch then gives Keith matching jackets with him and Keith is happy.

Branch soon has Keith flying, and Poppy is impressed that Branch is making this about having fun, as she only expected him to focus on winning.

At that moment, Creek shows up presenting his star pupil Priscilla, who is progressing along much better than the other students. Creek brags about her coming in first place thanks to his mentoring. Creek takes a moment to take a snarky remark on Branch's pupil being not prepared to win at all. Priscilla asks Creek a question he clearly doesn't understand and he agrees.

Branch decides to step up his mentoring and help Keith win. Keith puts a boaster bug on Branch's flyer, and Branch states that he needs to learn how to fly and not just go faster. Branch has Keith do a number of training things, which end up failing as Keith misunderstands all of his instructions and gets distracted by his own imagination.

Branch goes to a new approach. He tells Keith to stop goofing off and be serious, to which Keith pretends to be a robot as he employs his eccentrics. Branch thinks "robot Keith" can work, and begins a more serious training course.

At the Junior Flyer Grand Prix in the stadium, Keith ends up so far ahead that Creek is confused while Guy and Aspen are impressed. In the final laps, Keith pulls in for a pitstop. As Priscilla pulls in claiming how fun this race is, Creek gets cocky and puts a boaster bug on her flyer in an attempt to teach Branch a lesson.

Creek and Branch get into a mentor argument, and the two kids speed on trying to win whatever it takes because they have been told to by their mentors. As Keith speeds ahead, Priscilla pushes the limits of the booster bug to go faster and it hits its maximum capacity and fails, causing her flyer to lose control. Poppy and Cooper comments on her looking like she could fall off at any moment, and Branch tries to get Keith to stop trying to win and rescue her. At first he is still focused on winning, but quickly registers that he has to save her.

As Priscilla slips, Keith saves her. Branch is so ecstatic about Keith's rescue that he and Creek accidentally hug. They pull apart, but still decide to hug anyway. Keith and Priscilla cross the line on the same bug in last place with CJ Suki ending up winning. Keith confesses to Branch that he is a goof-off, and Branch returns to being a fun mentor as the two fly in loops until dark. Branch is then left trying to stop him.
