It seems like the whole season's been building up to this story.
After getting ejected from nowhere space to a dark forest, Hilda, Johanna and Twig find themselves lost and trapped. With the three of them missing, Frida and David set out beyond the wall to find them, but run into the Trolberg Safety Patrol instead. But with an ever-increasing number of Troll campfires, the wilderness has never been more dangerous.
It's a solid 46-minute episode that follows Hilda and Johanna in the heart of Trollkind, as they learn to appreciate and understand the difficulties they face when putting up with the other. Johanna has to learn to be more daring while Hilda begins to understand her mum's dread when she's anxiously waiting and worrying for her return every day.
As the B-plot, David, Frida, Deputy Gerda and Ahlberg do their best to survive the cold, the trolls and build a transport to get back home. But in doing so, Frida accidentally transforms Ahlberg into a bug. It's a lot of fun, intense yet oddly charming to see them coexist alongside the trolls.
Alfur's little adventure was fine. It's still great to see him take action instead of sitting by on the sidelines. Again, he's my favourite character!
Its impeccable pacing meant the time flew by, as usual. It never drags, and it felt as long as any other 20-minute episode, so that's a plus. It's got a heartfelt lesson for Hilda and Johanna, and the other characters' plots keep it interesting when the episode doesn't focus on Hilda and her mum. I can't wait for Hilda's next adventure, because that cliffhanger is quite jaw-dropping.
