Jim warms up to the idea of being the Trollhunter until he faces Bular, who is determined to destroy him, so he seeks help in Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!

!! Tropes for this episode include:
* DepravedDentist: While not overtly sadistic, Tobe's dentist uses various tools that Tobes is clearly not enjoying, including a mechanical tool with a drill and buzzsaw attachment.
* FromBadToWorse: A hilarious slippery-slope moment when questioned about the last trollhunter.
->'''Jim:''' So, the previous Trollhunter, what, retired?.\\
'''AAARRRGGHH:''' Was felled\\
'''Jim''' Felled?\\
'''AAARRRGGHH:''' Means killed.\\
'''Blinky:''' Turned to stone and smashed. Kanjigar the Courageous was his name. Brutally slain by a ruthless troll named Bular.\\
'''Tobes:''' Don't worry dude. This Bular guy probably just got lucky. \\
'''Blinky:''' The evidence does not suggest that. Bular is a formidable opponent.\\
'''Jim''' Then the other guy, he was just off his game or something, right?\\
'''Blinky:''' Doubtful. Kanjigar was perhaps the most alert and able of all the Trollhunters.\\
'''Jim:''' But not the best, I'm betting.\\
'''Blinky:''' Oh, the very best. Many songs and sagas have been written about him.
