So, uh, I've always kinda wondered what it would be like to be a griffon.
Not a chance.
You sure? What about a dragon? No? It doesn't have to shoot fire!

So, uh, I've always kinda wondered what it would be like to be a griffon.
Not a chance.
You sure? What about a dragon? No? It doesn't have to shoot fire!
Where are the pies!?
They're not back here.
This is all your fault. You think you always got to be in charge!
[groans] You're lucky, you know? You've got no idea what it's like to have a sister constantly looking over your shoulder!
Uh, actually...
[A spider crawls on a rock in front of Maud]
These spiders only live in Ponyville, and even though they may look a teeny bit scary, they're actually very sweet and help keep other, more dangerous insects away!
[The spider looks menacing at first, then becomes friendly and shows them a flower]
I was looking at the rock.
Oh.
[to Twilight Sparkle] I prefer to read my own poetry.
Oooh, I'd love to hear some of it.
[clears throat] "Rock, you are a rock. Grey, you are grey. Like a rock, which you are, rock." I've written thousands.
She's so prolific!
This next one is about rocks. They're all about rocks. "Rocks, these are my rocks. Sediments make me sentimental. Smooth and round, asleep in the ground. Shades of brown, and grey..."
That pony is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an igneous.
Don't you mean "inside an enigma"?
No. I mean "igneous". It's a kind of rock. Ask me how I know that.
Oh my gosh! I can't believe we're goin' to see Sapphire Shores! I'm such a huge fan! I know all her songs!
'Get Your Pony On'!
Ooh, that's one of my favorites!
This isn't a trip to see Sapphire Shores! It's a trip to save my sister from a horrible future!
'Serves Her Right'!
[gasps] How can you say that? Rarity doesn't deserve that at all!
No, 'Serves Her Right' is another one of Sapphire Shores' songs!
You seriously didn't know that? Don't you listen to her music?!
...I prefer showtunes.
Ugh.
Hey, Granny! Think you can buck me over the water?
I don't see why not! Come on, Big Mac, toss her this way!
Granny, wait!
Woo-hoo-hoo!
[laughing]
Believing in something can help you do amazing things. But if that belief is based on a lie, eventually, it's gonna lead to real trouble.
It's time for you to tell the truth! You never needed crutches at all, did ya?
I, uh... (he pulls a lever which makes a whistle to blow steam)
Hey! (she and Apple Bloom brace themselves from the steam as they are covered by it)fxzr6vkhiz
It's a test! A test that will determine if you can join the newly-formed Wonderbolts Reserves, and being part of the Reserves means you'll have the opportunity to live your dream as a Wonderbolt! This is the most important test of your life!
Twilight, not everypony gets all freaked out about tests like you.
I do not get "all freaked out" about tests!
Seriously? Your freakouts are so epic, you sing whole freakout arias about freaking out!
Fine, I may tend to take my tests a little seriously, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be studying for yours!
Reading and highlighting is the foundation of any good study method. It allows the student to hone in and boil down on what's really important, separating the good from the bad, the wheat from the chaff, getting to the crux of things. Let's see what you've got so far.
(Rainbow has highlighted the entire text)
Hm, by highlighting everything you don't really separate the wheat from the chaff... Or the good from the bad. Hey, I am not that tall!
[giggles]
Yes, Rainbow?
Is it snack time?
No.
Recess?
No.
[sighs] Can't we just watch the history of the Wonderbolts movie?!
No!
[Twilight begins her lecture on the Wonderbolt's history. Throughout this, Rainbow rocks her stool back and forth, making a rhythm while Owlowiscious and Spike join in.]
Prior to the Great Celestia/Luna Rift, there was no need for the Earth-Unicorn-Pegasi, or EUP, Guard. But after Luna’s banishment, the Protective Pony Platoons were formed. On the anniversary of the first Celestial Year of Peace, a celebration was held, Headed by General Firefly, an elite team of aerial performers were chosen to commemorate this auspicious occasion. The first performance was so full of energy, so highly charged, that magical lightning showered down on the crowd. Everypony was so filled with amazement and wonder, that General Firefly dubbed them: The Wonderbolts.
[She finally notices Rainbow goofing off; Owlowiscious and Spike stop what they're doing and leave the scene.]
Rainbow Dash! Can you repeat any of my lesson?!
[Rainbow rocks her stool one last time.]
The initials EUP stand for what?
Ernie's Undercooked Pancakes.
The original aerial team performed for...?
Celestia's cereal celebration.
The Wonderbolts were given their name by this famous Pegasus. Who is she? [to herself] Please don't say Colonel Waffle...
Hello? General Blazing Donut Glaze! So, did I ace it or what?
Or what. You didn't get one answer correct.
What? But- but how?
I don't know. I've never heard answers so wrong! And so breakfast-related!
[stomach growls]
I'm gonna fail! I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna fail! And it's all your fault!
My fault?! I'm the one helping you!
Maybe your famous study methods aren't all they're cracked up to be, eh, teacher?!
Excuse me, I've used them to study for many a-test, and passed!
Yeah, right.
Do you know the name of the Wonderbolts' premiere choreographer?
Well...
Commander Easyglider! Do you know how many Pegasi flew in the original squad? Seven! Do you know Princess Celestia's favorite flight pattern?! The Icaranean Sun Salutation! See? I could pass the test!
Fine! Rub it in, why don't ya? Besides, I don't see why I have to take this lousy test anyway. I've proven I'm one of the best flyers around.
Knowing their origin and being able to properly represent them for all of Equestria is just as important!
Yeah, right. Some history buff like you must have made that up to bring us flyers down!
Knowing history actually is beneficial, Rainbow!
Beneficial for eggheads!
(watching from below) Girls...?
Well, this egghead knows history and can fly! Maybe I should become a Wonderbolt!
Just 'cause you got wings, doesn't mean you can fly!
Girls!?
You're barely able to just get off the ground!
GIRLS! STOP! Now, is that any way to talk to a friend?
(Beat)
Sorry.
Yeah, sorry.
