Plot[]
"We're Working on It!" |
It starts off with The 7D and Queen Delightful looking at the Bark Park. Then Delightful states that it will be the perfect spot for his “bark-mitzvah” Delightful also states that how are they going to go to the bark park without getting wet. Sneezy replies with “What about a plank” in a questioning mode, then Doc replies “NO Planks!” Then Grumpy is just wondering what’s the big whoop with planks. Happy replies that they don’t mention planks anymore, still, Doc is out of control. Sneezy states a good idea is a plank, but Doc replies with “NO PLANKS” Then, Sleepy calls an emergency meeting for The 7D: B.O.D. The roll call starts, but then Bashful says “Hey what about figuring out a way to get across the Bark Park?” Sneezy replies with “Well just plop down a plank, that's it” But Doc, is still mad about planks. Grumpy states What is wrong with you to Doc, he replies with “Don’t you remember the Big Kerplunk Canyon Plank Disaster?” Then it cuts to a Flashback, while Happy is singing Stinkys Song. It starts off with The 8D walking to Kerplunk Canyon, and Doc finding a way to get over the revenue, with a plank. But then, the plank started to break, and Stinky fell down in the water. Then Doc states that they should have a bridge, but not a plank, across the Bark Park. Then, the meeting ends with Sleepy hitting the hammer on the wood. The 7D go back to their cottage while planning a blueprint for the bridge was getting ready. Then after the blueprint was finished, Doc decided to hire some bridge workers, there we’re Trolls. Starchbottom gets Mr. Brissels for the bark-mitzvah. But then, Starchbottom gets torn up by the dogs. Back at the bridge, Doc asked Dopey to get Queen Delightful to tell her that the bridge is ready. While the 7D are going through the bridge, a separator appears with Salvatrolle being in the toll. Sneezy asked how much is the toll, Salvatrolle replies that it’s 50 bazodies. Then another flashback comes back as Happy saying “We could have a yard sale” which shows the yard gone, same for when Happy states that they could have a garage sale, their garage has been towed by a truck.

Continuity[]
- The final scene during the musical number contains reused animation from "Sneezin' Season" (above image). The only difference is that Stinky was in the portrait in place of Grumpy. While "Planks, But No Planks" was animated by Toon City, the scene in particular was done by Wang, uncredited. "Sneezin' Season" was originally animated by Digital eMation.
- This is one of the episodes where the Glooms did not appear.
- This is the fifth time where Doc is shown with his Mohawk. The first four times were "Bathtub Bashful", "Chicken Soup for the Troll", "Dr. Jingleheimer", and "Nicely Done and The 7D" and the last time was "Shapeshifter".
- Possibe Plot Hole: In this episode, the 7D's couch was destroyed by Salvatrolle, and gave it a "proper funeral" later on. But in the later episodes "There's a Monkey in My Hat" and "Once in a Purple Moon" it was fully intact. It is possible that the aforementioned episodes may chronologically took place before this episode, they brought a new couch, or they fixed it after the "burial", and it happened just for comedic purposes.
Trivia[]
- "Planks, But No Planks" is a pun to the phrase "Thanks, but no thanks."
- When the 7D are crying about their couch, Bashful is seen without his hat, first being Goldilocks and the 7D.
Cultural References[]
- The "Bark Mitzvah" is a pun for Bar Mitzvah, a ceremony held by Jewish people when a person's son has reached the age of 13, and are ready to observe religious precepts and are eligible to take part in public worship.
Goofs[]
- After Queen Delightful left the 7D's cottage because of the queen annoying Doc for attending the "bark-mitzvah", Sleepy's brim in his cap switched from light purple to dark blue.
- In the last few seconds of Stinky's Song, Happy is sitting idle, while supposed to be singing.
- In the couch funeral scene, Happy's hat has no polka dots
