00:00:15,750 --> 00:00:17,708
-Are you okay, Misty?
-Oh yeah! I'm just…

-[rumbling]
-Oh!

6
00:00:18,916 --> 00:00:20,291
…still finding my balance!

7
00:00:20,375 --> 00:00:22,416
The Mare Stream can take
some getting used to!

8
00:00:22,500 --> 00:00:25,041
At least we're taking you
on a secret surprise adventure!

9
00:00:25,125 --> 00:00:26,250
Are you excited?

10
00:00:27,583 --> 00:00:30,583
Oh yeah! Definitely!
Uh so um… what is it?

11
00:00:30,666 --> 00:00:35,125
We are going… to Zephyr Heights for
the annual Equestria Cutie Blossom Bash!

12
00:00:35,208 --> 00:00:36,500
-You'll love it.
-[cheering]

13
00:00:36,583 --> 00:00:39,166
Cutie Blossom Bash?
What is that?

14
00:00:39,250 --> 00:00:43,166
It's only the cutest springtime
celebration of all that is fresh and new.

15
00:00:43,250 --> 00:00:46,500
I'm talking flowers,
blossoms, bunnies, fashion.

16
00:00:46,583 --> 00:00:48,708
The looks you will see, Misty.
The looks.

17
00:00:48,791 --> 00:00:51,750
But more importantly,
it's an official ceremony and celebration

18
00:00:51,833 --> 00:00:54,750
for all of the ponies that have gotten
their new Cutie Marks that year.

19
00:00:54,833 --> 00:00:57,166
-A day of honor.
-Yeah. And it's kinda cool

20
00:00:57,250 --> 00:01:00,333
how we're finally combining
the tradition we've all grown up with.

21
00:01:00,416 --> 00:01:02,833
[exclaiming]
I love the Blossom Bash!

22
00:01:02,916 --> 00:01:05,333
It's so springy!

23
00:01:05,416 --> 00:01:07,583
See? I've already crafted
seven flower corsages.

24
00:01:07,666 --> 00:01:09,583
I only need to make a few hundred more.

25
00:01:09,666 --> 00:01:12,458
-A few hundred?!
-Yeah! For all the ponies

26
00:01:12,541 --> 00:01:13,875
who are going to cheer you on!

27
00:01:13,958 --> 00:01:15,875
[cheering]

28
00:01:15,958 --> 00:01:18,125
Oh wow. Okay. It'll be okay.

29
00:01:18,208 --> 00:01:19,958
I can just avoid all those
other ponies, right?

30
00:01:20,041 --> 00:01:22,208
[inhaling]
I'll just keep my head down and blend in.

31
00:01:22,291 --> 00:01:23,708
It'll be smooth sailing. Yup.

00:01:24,541 --> 00:01:25,625

33
00:01:25,708 --> 00:01:26,750
Quick, turn!

34
00:01:26,833 --> 00:01:27,916
[Zipp] I got this.

00:01:31,083 --> 00:01:32,583
Uh… oh no.

37
00:01:32,666 --> 00:01:34,833
I just jinxed the whole
"smooth sailing" thing, didn't I?

Thinkin' about Sparky again?

58
00:02:32,166 --> 00:02:35,791
Yeah. Ever since his run-in with Opaline,
he's been so tired.

59
00:02:35,875 --> 00:02:39,541
I didn't wanna drag him all the way
to Zephyr Heights, but I miss him.

60
00:02:39,625 --> 00:02:42,125
Well, at least he's resting
with Grandma Figgy!

You're right. Grandma is the best
at making anypony feel better.

65
00:02:49,583 --> 00:02:51,625
See? Sparky is in great hooves!

66
00:02:51,708 --> 00:02:53,500
You just gotta get your mind off things.

67
00:02:53,583 --> 00:02:55,916
I know how we can do that!
Let's go around and share

68
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,250
our Cutie Marks stories with Misty!
I'll go first.

69
00:02:59,083 --> 00:03:02,333
[Sunny] Back when I was a little filly,
I didn't have many friends.

70
00:03:02,416 --> 00:03:04,541
But, my dad always said,

71
00:03:04,625 --> 00:03:07,083
"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade

72
00:03:07,166 --> 00:03:09,666
and sell it to raise money
for the library."

73
00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:12,083
So I did! My lemonade was a hit!

74
00:03:12,166 --> 00:03:14,666
I sold almost every cup right away.

75
00:03:14,750 --> 00:03:16,916
But two ponies wanted the last one.

76
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,708
They started arguing,
but then I stepped in to help.

77
00:03:20,791 --> 00:03:23,000
They realized they were
fighting for no reason!

78
00:03:23,083 --> 00:03:25,250
That's when my Cutie Mark appeared!

79
00:03:25,333 --> 00:03:29,500
My dad told me it's because I helped
those ponies put aside their differences.

80
00:03:29,583 --> 00:03:33,458
He was so proud.
That spring, I got to trot the stage

81
00:03:33,541 --> 00:03:35,208
in our Cutie Blossom Bash.

82
00:03:35,291 --> 00:03:38,375
[giggling]
Ah, it's one of my favorite memories.

83
00:03:39,208 --> 00:03:41,000
Mmm, now I want lemonade.

84
00:03:41,083 --> 00:03:44,500
-Me next! My story--
-Well, technically our story.

85
00:03:44,583 --> 00:03:47,250
…starts back home in Z.H.

86
00:03:47,333 --> 00:03:50,166
[Zipp] Before we had magic,
I was always crunching numbers

87
00:03:50,250 --> 00:03:52,833
trying to figure out exactly
how Pegasi could fly again.

88
00:03:52,916 --> 00:03:55,916
But one day, I had this epic
breakthrough moment!

89
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,500
I could tell that I was
so close to flying. It felt amazing.

90
00:03:59,583 --> 00:04:03,500
And sure, it was scary, but no other
Pegasus had tried it before me.

[Zipp] It was awesome!

That's the day I got this
lil' wonder-bolt!

94
00:04:14,541 --> 00:04:17,208
[clears throat]
And don't leave out what happened next.

95
00:04:17,291 --> 00:04:21,500
[Pipp] Watching my sister soar,
I'd never seen anything like it!

96
00:04:21,583 --> 00:04:24,833
She was so courageous!
And that gave me the confidence

97
00:04:24,916 --> 00:04:27,750
to perform, for the first time, ever.

110
00:04:51,541 --> 00:04:53,416
Kinda stole the spotlight there, sis.

111
00:04:53,500 --> 00:04:57,041
It's not my fault!
You were the one who was so inspiring!

112
00:04:57,125 --> 00:04:58,625
You look like you're about
to burst, buddy.

113
00:04:58,708 --> 00:04:59,958
Wanna tell yours?

114
00:05:00,041 --> 00:05:01,958
[gasping]
Do I!

115
00:05:02,041 --> 00:05:04,250
[Hitch] I was playing hoofball
on the beach with some colts

116
00:05:04,333 --> 00:05:06,166
when this filly asked to join us.

117
00:05:06,250 --> 00:05:08,416
But they wouldn't let her play!
They just kept shouting…

118
00:05:08,500 --> 00:05:10,125
No fillies allowed!

119
00:05:10,208 --> 00:05:11,625
-[dramatic music]
-[filly crying]

120
00:05:11,708 --> 00:05:13,666
[Hitch] So I did what any decent
pony would do.

121
00:05:13,750 --> 00:05:15,791
I ditched the meanies
and played with her!

122
00:05:15,875 --> 00:05:18,416
And then… I got my mark!

123
00:05:19,041 --> 00:05:21,916
Because the only peace of mind
is to be kind.

124
00:05:22,833 --> 00:05:28,833
My turn! Oh! So, it all begins back
in Bridlewood, during the days of Yore,

125
00:05:28,916 --> 00:05:32,250
on the eves of the Translucent
Moonstone Moon…

126

[echoing herself]

127
00:05:33,666 --> 00:05:36,458
Doodle-oodle-loodle-oodle-loo…
Flashback!

128
00:05:36,541 --> 00:05:40,333
[Izzy] There was this really sad-looking
junk pile in the middle of our forest

129
00:05:40,416 --> 00:05:42,708
that just kept growing and growing.

130
00:05:42,791 --> 00:05:44,166
But I didn't see it as "junk".

131
00:05:44,250 --> 00:05:47,000
I saw it as stuff that
just needed some love!

132
00:05:47,083 --> 00:05:50,750
I remade everything into
a big teapot statue!

133
00:05:50,833 --> 00:05:55,291
Then, everypony saw that maybe they'd
judged the junk a little too harshly.

134
00:05:55,375 --> 00:05:56,916
Hey, thanks!
[giggling]

135
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,208

I got my mark.

[giggling]
Yay!

139
00:06:07,333 --> 00:06:09,125
Wow, great stories!

140
00:06:09,208 --> 00:06:11,625
But um… they all ended with a big event

141
00:06:11,708 --> 00:06:13,958
where you had to stand
in front of a lot of ponies?

142
00:06:14,041 --> 00:06:16,250
Yep! Now it's your turn to do the same.

143
00:06:16,333 --> 00:06:19,625
And it's going to be the biggest,
most-grand one yet!

There's so many ponies here!

Be brave, Misty.

149
00:06:30,250 --> 00:06:32,208
I don't wanna ruin anything for them!

150
00:06:32,291 --> 00:06:33,333
I can do this.

151
00:06:33,416 --> 00:06:35,541
Aren't you so thrilled?

152
00:06:35,625 --> 00:06:38,166
Um! It's all so new.
[chuckling nervously]

153
00:06:42,458 --> 00:06:44,333
My angels! You've arrived!

154
00:06:44,416 --> 00:06:48,583
I was so worried, I nearly had to send
Cloudpuff to track you down again!

155
00:06:48,666 --> 00:06:51,375
I'm thrilled to have you here,
but I'd be lying if I didn't say

156
00:06:51,458 --> 00:06:53,583
-I'm a teensy bit stressed.
-[thunder striking]

157
00:06:53,666 --> 00:06:56,458
-A problem with the crystals again?!
-Oh stars, no.

158
00:06:56,541 --> 00:07:00,500
It's just spring showers. But if it rains,
then everything will be ruined!

159
00:07:00,583 --> 00:07:04,166
-I can most certainly help with that.
-Me too. We're problem-solving pros!

160
00:07:04,250 --> 00:07:07,708
-Really? You'd do that for me?
-Of course. We promise to make sure

161
00:07:07,791 --> 00:07:11,291
this event runs seamlessly and
that everything is as right as rain.

162
00:07:11,375 --> 00:07:13,333
uh… or not-rain, in this case.

163
00:07:13,416 --> 00:07:15,916
Ah, thank hoofness!
Follow me.

-as well as our baby duck nursery.

with that one. Cloudpuff did!

What do you think, girls?
I am devoted to making this

especially for your darling
new friend, Misty.

Guards! Prepare for Misty's
Cutie Mark debut.

172
00:07:41,833 --> 00:07:45,541
This is going to be one fun-packed,
pony-filled social event!

173
00:07:45,625 --> 00:07:46,750
-Yes!
-Woohoo!

174
00:07:46,833 --> 00:07:48,500
[cheering]

175
00:07:48,583 --> 00:07:51,250
You're gonna be so great!
This is fun!

176
00:07:51,333 --> 00:07:52,375
Yay?

177
00:07:52,458 --> 00:07:54,791
Come on, Misty! Woo!
[laughing]

178
00:07:54,875 --> 00:07:56,125
[upbeat music]

179
00:08:13,375 --> 00:08:14,708
[epic music]

180
00:08:14,791 --> 00:08:17,666
Hmm… We could go a little brighter,
don't you think, dear?

181
00:08:17,750 --> 00:08:19,791
You're so right, Mom.

182
00:08:21,750 --> 00:08:23,875
-Hey. Is something bothering you?
-[gasping]

183
00:08:23,958 --> 00:08:27,458
Oh… uh… I'm just worried about
what's going on back home.

184
00:08:27,541 --> 00:08:31,125
-I mean, back at Opaline's!
-Oh, we understand.

185
00:08:31,208 --> 00:08:35,958
Luckily, we have more Cutie Blossom
activities that focus entirely on you!

186
00:08:36,041 --> 00:08:38,916
That should get your mind off it!
Help me with the baskets?

187
00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:42,666
[barking]

188
00:08:42,750 --> 00:08:45,250
Okay, so I was lying a little
about what's bothering me!

189
00:08:45,333 --> 00:08:48,250
But it's sort of true.
Opaline probably knows I'm gone

190
00:08:48,333 --> 00:08:50,708
and is already plotting her evil
revenge against me.

191
00:08:50,791 --> 00:08:52,541
[Opaline] Gone… gone!

192
00:08:52,625 --> 00:08:54,583
No, no… How is this possible?!

193
00:08:54,666 --> 00:08:56,916
The ultimate price must be paid.

194
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,125
I can't believe she's missing!

195
00:09:00,833 --> 00:09:03,375
Gertrude! Where are you, Gertrude?

196
00:09:03,458 --> 00:09:07,416
My favorite manebrush.
She's so precious to me!

197
00:09:07,500 --> 00:09:10,208
I must find her.
[groaning]

198
00:09:10,291 --> 00:09:12,375
Mom, Mom! Look at me!

199
00:09:12,458 --> 00:09:15,333
If I sing to the tree, Mom,
will it grow faster?

200
00:09:15,416 --> 00:09:18,291
Oh, there's an idea!
Let's try, shall we?

201
00:09:18,375 --> 00:09:19,208
[all] Aww!

202
00:09:19,291 --> 00:09:22,708
I remember your Cutie Blossom Bash
like it was yesterday.

203
00:09:22,791 --> 00:09:26,291
I just wanna pick them up
and squeeze them! Ah.

204
00:09:26,375 --> 00:09:28,125
We were so cute.

205
00:09:28,208 --> 00:09:29,458
You still are.

206
00:09:29,541 --> 00:09:31,125
What's up, Misty?

207
00:09:31,208 --> 00:09:35,000
Um… It's just that… most ponies get
their Cutie Marks when they're young.

208
00:09:35,083 --> 00:09:37,541
Because that's when
the magic of their personality…

209
00:09:37,625 --> 00:09:39,291
And their Luminessence!

210
00:09:39,375 --> 00:09:40,916
…starts to shine.

211
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,291
But, because of Opaline,
I never got to shine until now.

212
00:09:44,375 --> 00:09:48,458
That means not only will I be
in front of everypony, but…

213
00:09:48,541 --> 00:09:50,250
[dramatic music]

214
00:09:50,333 --> 00:09:52,000
[indistinct chatter]

215
00:09:52,083 --> 00:09:54,625
I'm gonna be the oldest pony here.

216
00:09:54,708 --> 00:09:56,291
Alrighty, Zipp.
Perimeter checked.

217
00:09:56,375 --> 00:09:58,750
The throne room looks airtight
and safe from rain!

218
00:09:58,833 --> 00:10:00,916
That's great, Sheriff, but what about…

219
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,083
The fact that the Blossom Bashers
will have to trot outside

220
00:10:03,166 --> 00:10:05,625
to get from the palace to the stage,
potentially ruining their perfect outfits

221
00:10:05,708 --> 00:10:07,541
-in the puddles and downpour?
-Yeah.

222
00:10:07,625 --> 00:10:09,625
We need rainboots!
And umbrellas! And fast!

223
00:10:12,083 --> 00:10:16,083
Misty! We didn't even know it was possible
a pony your age

224
00:10:16,166 --> 00:10:19,875
could get a Cutie Mark for the first time.
It's so cool!

225
00:10:19,958 --> 00:10:21,916
-[gasping]
-Would you like to join us?

226
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,416
Glory and Peach Fizz are here to celebrate
my new Cutie Mark with me.

227
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:26,541
Look!

228
00:10:26,625 --> 00:10:28,500
It's awesome, Seashell!

229
00:10:28,583 --> 00:10:30,625
-It is time!
-Time? For what?

230
00:10:30,708 --> 00:10:32,583
Don't worry!
You can stick with me!

231
00:10:34,041 --> 00:10:35,916
[epic music]

232
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,958
Welcome to the Cutie Blossom
Bash Eve Dinner Soiree!

233
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,291
You got this!

234
00:10:45,541 --> 00:10:49,416
I am so honored to have you all here
in Zephyr Heights

235
00:10:49,500 --> 00:10:52,541
for our first Cutie Blossom Bash together!

236
00:10:52,625 --> 00:10:56,000
From Pegasi to Unicorns to Earth Ponies,

237
00:10:56,083 --> 00:11:00,083
every one of you has reached
an important milestone in your journey

238
00:11:00,166 --> 00:11:03,916
to become your best,
most authentic selves.

239
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,833
It's time to go out and make
your mark on Equestria!

240
00:11:07,916 --> 00:11:11,458
But first, please enjoy this incredibly
fancy springtime feast!

241
00:11:14,708 --> 00:11:16,833
Psst! That's the wrong fork.

242
00:11:16,916 --> 00:11:18,208
Oups.

243
00:11:21,791 --> 00:11:23,083
Oh no!

244
00:11:23,166 --> 00:11:24,916
[laughing]

245
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,583
[grunting]

246
00:11:26,666 --> 00:11:30,541
-I am so sorry!
-It's okay, darling, it happens.

247
00:11:30,625 --> 00:11:34,666
Now as per tradition, it's time
to introduce yourselves to one another

248
00:11:34,750 --> 00:11:38,416
and tell us about your Cutie Mark.
Misty, why don't you start?

249
00:11:38,500 --> 00:11:40,208
What, oh, um… me?!

250
00:11:40,291 --> 00:11:41,750
Uh, yeah. I'll go first.

251
00:11:42,916 --> 00:11:45,708
So, um… My name is Misty.

252
00:11:45,791 --> 00:11:50,958
Misty Brightdawn, and uh,
my Cutie Mark is a butterfly.

253
00:11:51,750 --> 00:11:53,250
-[chuckling]
-[gasping]

254
00:11:53,333 --> 00:11:54,416
[gasping]

255
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:57,000
Uh… That's it.

256
00:11:57,500 --> 00:12:01,875
My dear, you also have to tell everypony
why you think it's a butterfly.

257
00:12:01,958 --> 00:12:04,375
Oh! And um… uh… because… Um…

258
00:12:04,458 --> 00:12:06,333
Uh… heh, because…

259
00:12:07,125 --> 00:12:09,041
Oh, ah, I dropped my fork.

260
00:12:09,125 --> 00:12:10,500
This is so awkward!

261
00:12:10,583 --> 00:12:12,583
I have no public speaking skills.

262
00:12:12,666 --> 00:12:16,166
My only friend before this was a pile
of junk named Madame Taffytail!

263
00:12:16,250 --> 00:12:19,500
Opaline was right.
Maybe I'm not cut out for this world.

264
00:12:19,583 --> 00:12:23,375
My name is Seashell
and my Cutie Mark is… a shell!

265
00:12:23,458 --> 00:12:27,750
Because I'm a pony who's as unique
as every shell on the beach is!

266
00:12:27,833 --> 00:12:29,791
-Wonderful, that was lovely, dear!
-[exclaiming]

267
00:12:29,875 --> 00:12:31,916
-Yay, Seashell!
-Alright!

268
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,291
[cheering]

269
00:12:33,375 --> 00:12:34,458
[sighing]

270
00:12:34,541 --> 00:12:35,875
-[grunting]
-[clattering]

271
00:12:35,958 --> 00:12:40,041
First, those five little ponies thwart me
and all my brilliant plans,

272
00:12:40,125 --> 00:12:42,958
and now, I can't even find my manebrush.

273
00:12:43,041 --> 00:12:44,958
And I swear, something else is missing.

274
00:12:45,041 --> 00:12:48,416
Miss… Miss… Mis-ty!

275
00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:51,500
Yes! Where is that sad excuse
for a pony?

276
00:12:51,583 --> 00:12:54,958
Still pouting in her room
after our defeat, no doubt.

277
00:12:55,041 --> 00:12:58,791
How long has she been up there?
A few hours? Days? That's odd.

278
00:13:00,041 --> 00:13:04,125
But I also don't care.
Misty fails all the time!

279
00:13:04,208 --> 00:13:08,083
She'll be back down soon, begging me
to give her a Cutie Mark like always.

280
00:13:08,166 --> 00:13:10,375
[scoffing]
So silly, that girl.

281
00:13:10,458 --> 00:13:12,791
To believe I' d ever actually do that!

282
00:13:12,875 --> 00:13:14,833
[laughing]

283
00:13:16,458 --> 00:13:18,000
-[horn playing melody]
-Ah!

284
00:13:18,083 --> 00:13:20,041
What? What is it?!
Are we under attack?!

285
00:13:20,125 --> 00:13:23,208
No, Misty! It's your big day!

286
00:13:23,291 --> 00:13:26,083
The Cutie Blossom Bash! Yippee!
Time to get ready.

287
00:13:26,166 --> 00:13:28,125
Aren't you buzzing?!
[exclaiming]

288
00:13:28,208 --> 00:13:30,375
Buzzing… with nerves!

289
00:13:32,708 --> 00:13:35,666
[Izzy] Flower corsages!
Get your flower corsages!

290
00:13:35,750 --> 00:13:38,583
Hoofmade by me, Izzy, of course!
Smells great!

291
00:13:38,666 --> 00:13:40,291
[sniffing]
Like flowers!

292
00:13:40,875 --> 00:13:42,458
[thunder crashing]

293
00:13:43,625 --> 00:13:44,791
Don't worry, everypony!

294
00:13:44,875 --> 00:13:47,416
There's no way we're letting it rain
on this parade.

295
00:13:47,500 --> 00:13:48,541
Wait, there's a parade?!

296
00:13:48,625 --> 00:13:49,916
Why didn't anypony tell me?

297
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,250
Um… I may be able to fashion
a float quickly, but I will need

298
00:13:53,333 --> 00:13:55,583
a tube of glue, 5014 gummy bunnies and a--

299
00:13:55,666 --> 00:13:57,083
No, it's just an expression!

300
00:13:57,166 --> 00:14:01,083
What we mean is we've got
this festival of fun under cover!

301
00:14:01,166 --> 00:14:04,625
We also have critter deputies
on duty to make sure nopony slips.

302
00:14:04,708 --> 00:14:08,500
And trottie-talkies! Because…
Well, because trottie-talkies are cool.

303
00:14:08,583 --> 00:14:11,833
We've taken every precautionary measure.
So now, we wait.

304
00:14:11,916 --> 00:14:14,625
It'll be here any minute.
Kenneth. You take charge!

305
00:14:14,708 --> 00:14:16,666
-When it rains, you know what to do!
-[twittering]

306
00:14:18,333 --> 00:14:19,750
[twittering]

307
00:14:21,416 --> 00:14:25,541
Well. At least I look pretty.
Pretty terrified.

308
00:14:25,625 --> 00:14:26,833
[gasping]

309
00:14:26,916 --> 00:14:28,375
-Wow! Misty!
-Oh my hoofness!

310
00:14:28,458 --> 00:14:30,791
Misty! You are the picture of spring!

311
00:14:30,875 --> 00:14:33,791
A vision in florals, an ode
to the beauty of the butterfly!

312
00:14:33,875 --> 00:14:36,458
[gasping]
You're gonna stick out.

313
00:14:36,541 --> 00:14:37,583
In a good way.

314
00:14:37,666 --> 00:14:39,416
[exclaiming]
Here it goes.

315
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:41,208
[epic music]

316
00:14:50,875 --> 00:14:51,958
[gasping]

317
00:14:52,041 --> 00:14:53,083
[laughing]

318
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,166
Ah!

319
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,500
I can't do this. It's all too much.

320
00:14:59,666 --> 00:15:00,875
-[Sunny] What?
-[Izzy] No!

321
00:15:00,958 --> 00:15:02,208
-[all gasping]
-What?

322
00:15:02,291 --> 00:15:03,666
[Misty] Wait! I need to confess something.

323
00:15:03,750 --> 00:15:06,208
-I knew it!
-[Misty] It's not about Opaline, Zipp.

324
00:15:06,291 --> 00:15:07,708
This is about… me.

325
00:15:07,791 --> 00:15:10,875
The truth is I… can't go out there!

326
00:15:10,958 --> 00:15:13,333
What, is it the outfit?
We can change it!

327
00:15:13,416 --> 00:15:17,458
No, no! It's perfect. It's all perfect.

328
00:15:17,541 --> 00:15:20,791
But ever since I got here,
I haven't felt… comfortable.

329
00:15:20,875 --> 00:15:23,250
All these ponies
and all this fuss over me.

330
00:15:23,333 --> 00:15:25,291
-Wait, you don't like that?
-No.

331
00:15:25,375 --> 00:15:30,333
All this Cutie Blossom Bash stuff
has made me feel so not me.

332
00:15:30,416 --> 00:15:34,000
I may be smiling,
but this is what I really feel like.

333
00:15:34,083 --> 00:15:36,291
Oh wow, yeah.
That, that looks unhappy.

334
00:15:36,375 --> 00:15:39,250
I don't wanna trot across that stage
with all those eyes on me.

335
00:15:39,333 --> 00:15:42,541
I don't want the spotlight!
I just wanna be Misty.

336
00:15:42,625 --> 00:15:45,958
But if I don't pretend, then everypony
will know the truth about me.

337
00:15:46,041 --> 00:15:47,958
That I'm… shy.

338
00:15:48,041 --> 00:15:51,916
Oh, Misty. We just wanted
to celebrate your new Cutie Mark!

339
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,625
I know I should be proud of it and I am,
but I don't wanna do this.

340
00:15:56,708 --> 00:15:59,750
I've been so scared to tell you
because you were all so excited.

341
00:15:59,833 --> 00:16:02,458
I'm sorry. I should've been honest.

342
00:16:02,541 --> 00:16:04,000
I've ruined everything!

343
00:16:04,083 --> 00:16:07,041
Misty… You haven't ruined
anything at all.

344
00:16:07,125 --> 00:16:08,833
We are the ones who should be sorry.

345
00:16:08,916 --> 00:16:12,291
We got so caught up in trying to make
this moment special for you,

346
00:16:12,375 --> 00:16:15,500
we forgot to ask along the way
if this is what you even wanted.

347
00:16:15,583 --> 00:16:17,375
That's what good friends would've done.

348
00:16:17,458 --> 00:16:19,291
Thank you for understanding.

349
00:16:19,375 --> 00:16:21,166
I'm still learning about friendship.

350
00:16:21,250 --> 00:16:23,291
-[Izzy] And so are we.
-Every day.

351
00:16:26,291 --> 00:16:29,250
Maybe we can celebrate in another way?

352
00:16:30,666 --> 00:16:33,000
[applause]

353
00:16:35,125 --> 00:16:36,375
[indistinct chatter]

354
00:16:36,458 --> 00:16:39,333
And next we have… Seashell!

355
00:16:39,416 --> 00:16:40,750
[cheering]

356
00:16:40,833 --> 00:16:41,666
[giggling]

357
00:16:41,750 --> 00:16:43,916
[cheering]

358
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,458
Thank you, ponies.

359
00:16:45,541 --> 00:16:49,833
For the first time
in a long time, I feel… happy.

360
00:16:49,916 --> 00:16:52,833
Probably about as happy
as Seashell feels right now.

361
00:16:52,916 --> 00:16:55,708
This is the best moment of my life!

362
00:16:55,791 --> 00:16:57,541
Okay. Talked to Mom.
She's totally cool with it.

363
00:16:57,625 --> 00:16:59,291
-Yes!
-Cool with… what?

364
00:16:59,375 --> 00:17:03,041
A special surprise. That we promise
doesn't involve any other ponies,

365
00:17:03,125 --> 00:17:05,791
preparations, or primping. Just us!

366
00:17:07,333 --> 00:17:09,500
[epic music]

367
00:17:11,833 --> 00:17:12,833
[gasping]

368
00:17:12,916 --> 00:17:14,000
Hey!

369
00:17:14,083 --> 00:17:16,000
This is the place from the video!

370
00:17:16,083 --> 00:17:17,416
It's beautiful.

371
00:17:19,833 --> 00:17:21,208
But why are we here?

372
00:17:21,291 --> 00:17:25,041
We wanted to do something cool
to mark your big day, in a small way.

373
00:17:25,125 --> 00:17:28,166
This is one of the saplings
I've been singing to,

374
00:17:28,250 --> 00:17:30,625
I mean, nurturing for a while.

375
00:17:30,708 --> 00:17:32,708
And now it's yours.

376
00:17:32,791 --> 00:17:36,875
It represents you growing
into the pony you were meant to be.

377
00:17:36,958 --> 00:17:40,208
Now your sparkle can take roots! Woo!

378
00:17:40,291 --> 00:17:41,125
Like mine!

379
00:17:41,208 --> 00:17:42,250
And mine.

380
00:17:42,333 --> 00:17:44,500
So… what do you say?

381
00:17:44,583 --> 00:17:45,833
I love it!

382
00:17:47,541 --> 00:17:50,750
It'll be a long time before
my tree catches up to yours!

383
00:17:50,833 --> 00:17:52,666

[laughing]

405
00:19:22,166 --> 00:19:25,291
That's it! That's why
my Cutie Mark is a butterfly!

406
00:19:25,375 --> 00:19:27,708
It's because I have the power to change,

407
00:19:27,791 --> 00:19:31,041
to transform my own destiny.
That's me.

408
00:19:31,125 --> 00:19:33,750
But there's one more thing
I've been wanting to tell you.

409
00:19:33,833 --> 00:19:37,333
And yes, this time it does have
to do with Opaline, Zipp.

410
00:19:37,416 --> 00:19:38,583
Bah, I knew it!

411
00:19:38,666 --> 00:19:41,583
Opaline hasn't been defeated yet.
Not even close.

412
00:19:41,666 --> 00:19:43,041
[gasping]
That can't be true.

413
00:19:43,125 --> 00:19:44,625
You saw what happened in the lair!

414
00:19:44,708 --> 00:19:47,208
Yes. But she's more powerful
than you know.

415
00:19:47,291 --> 00:19:49,833
And now, she has Sparky's
dragonfire magic, too.

416
00:19:49,916 --> 00:19:53,625
Opaline won't stop until
she has all the power of Equestria!

417
00:19:53,708 --> 00:19:55,791
-But I think I know how to help.
-How?!

418
00:19:55,875 --> 00:20:00,541
It'll be hard to guess her next move.
Opaline is unpredictable and mysterious.

419
00:20:00,625 --> 00:20:05,333
Except to somepony who knows her,
somepony who can be near her.

420
00:20:05,416 --> 00:20:07,458
[gasping]
Misty, no!

421
00:20:07,541 --> 00:20:10,750
Yes. I have to go back to Opaline
and pretend to be on her side.

422
00:20:10,833 --> 00:20:13,000
-[exclaiming]
-It's the only way.

423
00:20:13,083 --> 00:20:15,208
Twilight Sparkle's enchanted invisibubble

424
00:20:15,291 --> 00:20:18,166
can only keep Opaline
out of Equestria for so long!

425
00:20:18,250 --> 00:20:22,041
I can act as a double-agent by giving you
all the information I learn.

426
00:20:22,125 --> 00:20:25,375
That does not feel
like the safest option, Misty.

427
00:20:25,458 --> 00:20:28,208
-I agree. You can't go!
-It is risky.

428
00:20:28,291 --> 00:20:31,416
But this is what I want to do,
what I can do to help.

429
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:34,333
At least now, I'll have best friends
to get me through.

430
00:20:34,416 --> 00:20:36,125
We'll be by your side. Always.

431
00:20:36,208 --> 00:20:37,625

00:20:38,875 --> 00:20:40,041
Ah! My mane!

Oof, there you are!

00:20:54,958 --> 00:20:56,583
I'm behind on my scheming.

440
00:20:56,666 --> 00:20:59,666
I've had all these ideas
and nopony to take notes.

441
00:20:59,750 --> 00:21:02,250
-Obscene!
-Sorry, Opaline, I was--

442
00:21:02,333 --> 00:21:03,416
What's this?

443
00:21:03,500 --> 00:21:04,875
[groaning]

444
00:21:04,958 --> 00:21:06,750
And what has happened to your mane?!

445
00:21:06,833 --> 00:21:10,333
It's all purple and pink and… different.

446
00:21:10,416 --> 00:21:11,416
[moaning with disgust]

447
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:12,833
Uh… Oh, heh…

448
00:21:12,916 --> 00:21:17,041
That! Yeah, I…. fell into a flower bush!

449
00:21:17,125 --> 00:21:20,500
An enchanted one, grown with
Earth Pony Flora magic!

450
00:21:20,583 --> 00:21:22,666
It instantly changed my mane, ugh!

451
00:21:22,750 --> 00:21:24,916
Those cursed ponies got me again!

452
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,625
Ugh, you clumsy girl.

453
00:21:26,708 --> 00:21:29,750
Now, chop-chop!
I have plots to plan.

454
00:21:30,833 --> 00:21:33,708
You're by my side.
And I won't let you down.

455
00:21:33,791 --> 00:21:35,916
[Opaline] Misty!

456
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,375
