Spike! What are you doing?! Get away from that thing!
No! He's not a "thing"! His name is Thorax, and he's my friend!
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
As the Princess of Friendship, I should set an example for all of Equestria. But today, it was Spike who taught me that a new friend can come from anywhere. I guess everypony still has things to learn about friendship. Even me! And if Spike says Thorax is his friend, then he's my friend too.
Thank you.
Fun? With sidekicks? Oh, you must think that we're in a dimension where everything is opposite. [snap] "Da-dee-la! I'm Opposite Discord, and I want to hang out with Spike and Big Mac! I'm sure I'd have fun!"
OFOpposite Fluttershy
Well, guess what, Sassafras?! I'm Opposite Fluttershy, and I'm sick of being nice and quiet all the time!
We should just close the door and let them finish... whatever this... is.
No way! Did you see Big Mac's sword? I totally want in!
Yeah! I don't know what it is, but it looks like super duper fun!
PRPinkie and Rainbow Dash
Guys' night!
Between Applejack and me, we've got two-thirds of a team. All we need is a unicorn. That's where you two come in.
[whispering loudly to Fluttershy] Uh... they know we're not unicorns, right?
Uh, obviously. You're going to be on my team, and Fluttershy is going to be on Applejack's team.
We'll play against each other along with whatever unicorns want to try out until we find the best one.
Ohhhh! Phew! That's a relief because I left my unicorn costume at home! That's "uncredible"! Unbelievable and incredible? [scoffs] Come on!
Say, is there some kind of spell you can whip up to make her mark appear?
Um, I don't know if any of you remember, but using magic to get a cutie mark never really works out all that well.
Gabby, we can't help you.
GGabby
But, but... you're the world-famous Cutie Mark Crusaders! I can't believe it! I... I... I won't believe it!
You actually got a griffon a cutie mark for the first time in recorded history?! You know what this calls for? A full-scale research project!
The map is sending us where?!
Las Pegasus?!
But Las Pegasus is a wild vacation spot! It's just one big party!
All those lights and sounds, not to mention the crowds... Oh, just the thought of it is overwhelming!
I know Las Pegasus doesn't seem like either of your cups of tea, but I have total faith you wouldn't have been called unless you were the perfect ponies for the job.
[over loudspeaker] Flim and Flam told us you'd see right through the fake rich pony bit, and that once you did, you wouldn't be able to resist gloatin' about it! This was all part of the plan!
GGladmane
Oh, now, now, friends! Listen, I-I can explain everything!
DDirector
I think you've done enough of that! Darling?
TSTrapeze Star
Hmph!
T1Trainer 1
Oh, I cannot believe we let him almost ruin our friendship!
T2Trainer 2
And our act. Good luck finding another one!
GGladmane
Wait! No! Y'all come back! Come on, I-I'm gonna be ruined! This is Gladmane's, y'all! Come on, you can't do this to...
Gladmane has left the building!
In fact, we might think of it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Emphasis on "once".
[suspiciously] What do you mean?
[over loudspeaker] While this establishment undergoes a slight change in management, my brother and I want to assure you that it remains the pinnacle of Las Pegasus entertainment! Which is why we invite each and every one of you to experience the wonder of the Ponet Fantastique Theater – at half the normal cost of admission!
[over loudspeaker] And while you're appreciating this historic venue totally devoid of any performers of any kind, we invite you to use the wonder of your own imaginations to fill the space at no additional charge!
Flim and Flam!
Cogeria... persuadere... fiducia... hmm. Ah! Of course! Fiducia Compelus needs a trigger. [amplified] Ponies! Hear my voice and listen! Pinkie, kitchen. Rarity, Applejack, library. Fluttershy, stay here. Rainbow Dash, find somewhere inside the castle and set up a place where we can chillax.
RDRainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie
[overlapped agreement]
[mechanically, muffled] It was the best of apples, it was the worst of apples...
[exhales] I can handle this. It's just magic, and I know magic. What's that?!
[muffled noises]
What did you say?
[mechanically] The cakes are burning. You left the ovens on.
We need water!
[mechanically] Yes, Starlight.
Storm clouds?!
Sun – check. Chairs – check. And thanks to a simple Catadupa Levitata spell, we've got water. Is that everything we need to chillax?
Nope.
No? What did I miss?
Quiet.
Ah! Right.
Great job, Starlight. Looks like you've completed another friendship lesson. [sighs]
Hey! She completes the lesson when I say she completes it. So less learning and more chillaxing!
So... how long do we sit quietly?
MCMain cast
[laughing]
Come on in, everypony! Gummy, Opalescence, and Winona? This is a surprise!
Aren't Pinkie, Rarity and Applejack with you?
OOpalescence
[purring]
[reading] "Sorry, darling, but I must decline the invitation to your soiree. While I'm sure it will be positively resplendent, there are certain ponies I'd rather not associate with at the moment. Rarity."
Rarity's not coming? Awww. So I polished my scales for nothing.
[reading] "Sorry I can't make it, but I'm still a mite upset about everything that happened on the boat. Applejack." "Sorry I can't make the tea party today, but there's a small problem with the guest list. Plus, I'm right in the middle of a very important cupcake. Pinkie." Come on, Spike! Since our friends won't come here and tell us what happened, we'll just have to go to them!
