The two tickets[]
Twilight helping Applejack with the farm.
A happy Applejack with a bucket of apples.
Applejack pleased that Twilight is lending a helping hoof.
Excited to see her brother publicly humiliated.
Ooh, this apple looks good...
...but not good enough to eat.
Spike digging for apples.
Ooh, this apple.
Heh, this apple can go in the trash.
Out you go, bad apple.
Does Twilight have an apple on her horn?
An apple hits Twilight on her head.
Oops, that's gotta hurt the poor unicorn.
Hee hee, sorry.
*Tummy Grumbles*
Spike, you've been on my back all morning.
Or, what about this one?
Nah, gotta find more.
Spike looking through the basket of apples.
Ooh.
The perfect apple...
...that was eaten by a hungry little dragon.
Chomp!
"Spike! I wanted the juicy one..."
"What?"
Look out, Twilight.
Look what I got.
"Hear ye, hear ye."
"Her Grand Royal Highness, Princess Celestia of Equestria, is pleased to announce The Grand Galloping Gala..."
"...to be held in the magnificent capital city of Canterlot..."
"--cordially extends an invitation to Twilight Sparkle plus one guest."
Thus, the Gala excitement commences!
Everypony's got a reason[]
Happy hopping ponies.
I've got a Golden Ticket!
Spike's not into girly parties and stuff.
Applejack seems pretty happy.
Daydreaming about the Gala.
Applejack's dream of going to Grand Galloping Gala.
Just imagine all the bits!
She'll make a mint there, right?
Before
After
An old plow.
A new plow.
Before
After
Hopeful farmmare.
Rainbow Crash!
Hey guys, did I hear right?!
An upset Applejack.
"What were you busy doing? Spying?"
"No, I was busy napping."
Rainbow Dash's bed.
"I just happened to hear that you have an extra ticket?"
"Yeah, but..."
Rainbow Dash day dreaming.
"The ponies will love my awesome moves."
"They'll be so amazed."
Huh? What was that?
"They see RAINBOW DASH."
The ponies, watching in awe.
"Whoa!"
Berryshine, Golden Harvest and Daisy.
"I would draw their attention with my..."
"...Super Speed Strut!"
I see Derpy. And Amethyst Star.
"Then, I would mesmerize them with my..."
"...Fantastic Filly Flash!"
"And for my grand finale..."
The crowd of ponies.
"... the Buccaneer Blaze!"
*Jaw drop*
A legend in her own mind.
RD getting accepted into the Wonderbolts (in her mind).
She'll get to hang out with the Wonderbolts, right?
Rainbow Dash smiling.
Wonderbolt Dash smiles.
Rainbow Dash flying alongside the Wonderbolts.
Sweetie Drops and Berryshine among others watch Dash with the Wonderbolts.
Applejack with Rainbow Dash.
Is that a challenge?
"My family needs it more than you do!"
"Are ya serious?"
"I challenge you to a hoof-wrestle. Winner gets the ticket."
"Drummin' up business for the farm?"
"A chance to audition for the Wonderbolts?"
"Money t' fix granny's hip."
"Living the dream!"
"Those are all pretty good reasons, aren't they?"
"Can't make a decision on an empty stomach."
"Okay......."
She's going to give it to me!
Twilight's friends all want to go[]
"Bats! Bats on my face!"
"Ahh, bats!"
"Wait!"
At this point, Ellie Goulding's song Starry Eyed should come on.
Whee, parties...
...Everywhere!
"Oh the Grand Galloping Gala, is the best place for me!"
Pinkie's fantasy of the Grand Galloping Gala.
"With decorations like streamers and fairy-lights..."
"...and pinwheels and piñatas and pincushions!"
"With goodies like sugar cubes..."
"...and sugar canes..."
"...and sundaes..."
"...and sunbeams..."
"...and sarsaparilla!"
Oops, wrong tail Pinkie.
Pin the tail on the Pinkie!
What a smile!
Pinkie, as silly as ever.
"Whee!"
Ah, Spike...
Time to turn on the charm.
Rarity, as beautiful as ever.
Rarity, entering in her lovely dress.
Rarity at Celestia's throne room.
Why hello my dear.
"Our eyes would meet..."
"...our hearts would melt."
Everypony watching as Prince Blueblood and Rarity dance.
YES! Of course, I'll marry you!
Rarity, in her fantasy about the Gala.
You don't want to marry him, trust me, I have stories about him that would turn your coat white...er.
"What? Me?"
"But, I wanna see my true love!"
Angel Bunny on a mission.
Ooh, are those tickets?
"Girls! I haven't decided though."
"You haven't?!"
Fluttershy: "Um ... Excuse me ..."
...Pinkie and Rarity looking at Fluttershy.
"I would like to attend the Gala too..."
Angel helps out.
"You? You want to go to the Gala?"
"Uh, no."
"I mean, yes."
Ooh!
I love this fantasy!
So many happy moments.
Flying happily through the Gala..in her fantasy.
Ooh, what's that?
The critters will love her, right?
That is a cool Toucan.
Smile for the camera.
Blue jays, and red jays, and green jays, and pink jays!
Birds dig me..
With a pink bird on her back, isn't that heavy?
Twilight doesn't know what to say.
Dashie standing on a part of a ceiling.
Applejack arrives at the scene.
This is my annoyed look.
This is a big problem.
Delta, requesting a juggernaut suit. I need protection from these fierce ponies.
Twilight is about to snap.
Five friends want tickets and only two tickets are available.
"Quiieet!!!"
Pinkie Pie: "And then I said, 'Oatmeal? Are you craz-' Oh."
"Girls, there's no use in arguing."
"But Twilight..."
"Eh! This is my decision..."
"...and I'm gonna make it on my own, and I certainly can't think straight with all this noise..."
"...not to mention hunger."
Spike, why are you leaving too?
Alone at last.
Doing favors for Twilight[]
Meeting up with Spike and Twilight at the cafe.
Centerpiece or appetizer?
Hmm, thinking hard.
Furry reminder.
Remember, she's a pony, not a pony-shaped human.
An animation error.
"I can't decide!"
Spike trying to keep Twilight in reality as always.
"Do you have any rubies? ...No?" (A simple "I'm sorry, we do not" would have sufficed)
"Okay. I'll have the hay fries, extra crispy."
"You're still on that?"
Apparently, she cares for AJ and 'Shy more.
That waiter has some waiting skills.
Savoir Fare leading a drenched Daisy inside the café.
"It's not raining."
Now it is.
Rainbow Dash smiling down at Twilight.
Twilight Sparkle is not impressed with Rainbow Dash.
Like an angel in the sky.
This is my disapproving glare.
Arthur, Arthur, King of the Britons!
Rainbow Dash is a guardian angel from heaven.
Rainbow Dash looking down upon the world.
Ponies running desperately to get out of the rain.
Wet mane, before she could even eat.
"Twilight, it's raining."
"No, really?" (Classic Twilight Snark.)
Beginning the dry cycle.
Lovely Twily.
Great, now I have the wet mane!
Oh, no, it's quite alright. After all...
We are the best of friends, are we not?
Twilight Sparkle has a neck tumor. So that's why she doesn't cut her hair.
I do look quite pretty.
A fast-paced scene.
Eww, gross.
Spike looks like he's eating his own arm.
Ooh you too, Spikey-Wikey.
Doesn't he look just... dandy?
Spike doesn't approve of girly antics.
Do I look good?
Who needs him anyways?
"This is all about you, and how fabulous you'll look at The Grand Galloping Gala!"
"Wait, The Grand--"
"And oh, my goodness!"
Twilight is getting squished, while Rarity continues to dream about the Gala.
Rarity starry eyed.
Did somepony say lunch?
I got plenty of delicious food.
Aww! Look at her face!
The dessert, not my auntie.
What do you say there, best friend?
....Where ya going?
Cleaning the library.
"I hope you don't mind..."
"...but we're all doing a little spring cleaning for you."
"It's summer."
"Oh... Well..."
"Better late than never, right?"
Smile.
Right, Angel?
Angel disapproves of Fluttershy's fib.
Okay. Ya got me.
Angel offers a salad.
No, no, no!
Twilight asks Fluttershy to leave
Surprise!
Time to party!
No more favors![]
Pinkie Pie and her friends throw Twilight up in the air.
"Pinkie..."
Pinkie's got ponies with her.
Twilight's not liking this.
"Pinkie...."
Twilight Sparkle is not amused.
"She'll give her extra ticket to the gala to me!"
"PIIINKIIIE!!!"
The ponies surrounding Twilight.
"Yes, Twilight?"
Poor Twilight.
"The Grand Galloping Gala?!
No thanks Daisy!
The way to a woman's heart is through offering her carrots.
"What are we gonna do?"
"We're...
"gonna...
"RRRRRUUUUUNNNNN!" (Wait for us, Twilight)
There she goes...
...After her!
Think: "Yakety Sax".
Sweetie Drops and Daisy say, "Gotcha!"
One of Twilight's disguises.
Spike's so cute, isn't he?
Golden Harvest stands on two hooves, pointing that Twilight's the other way.
Nopony would ever notice them.
We're trapped.
Sweetie Drops, Daisy, Cherry Berry, Lemon Hearts and White Lightning harassing Twilight for the ticket.
The aforementioned five (and Derpy) watch as Twilight casts a spell...
Teleporting back to the Library.
Celestia sorts things out[]
Twilight and Spike burned out and dizzy after being teleported.
A little warning would have been nice...
"Now quick, lock the doors!"
Hasbro+Fluttershy with blue wing = Busted!
"Aaaaaarrrrrrrggggh!"
"Enough! I can't decide!"
Twilight's friends begin to feel sorry for her.
"I got the ticket!"
"I got the ticket!"
A-hem. (You know you've really bucked up when Fluttershy is giving you a death glare.)
Happily writing a letter.
Applejack and Rarity watching the two floating tickets.
Fluttershy seems confused.
Rainbow Dash, seems to have a worried expression.
Huh?
Her mind is made up.
But Twilight...
The timing of this letter was intentional on Trollestia's part, wasn't it?
Whoa nelly!
"That was fast."
Now how are they able to carry the tickets in the air? What sorcery is this?
Hip hip hooray!
Applejack and Fluttershy heading out the door with their tickets.
Spike, waiting at the door with the tickets.
At least there's still one ticket left.
...Or not.
"How come I don't get a ticket to the Gala?"
A sudden green glow.
I didn't forget you Spike, here's your ticket for good time's sake.
Aww...looks like Spike likes girly, fru-fru stuff after all.
Yes Spike?...
...Don't worry, your secret's safe with me..
...You're not fooling her, Spike.
Sweet laugh, Applejack. Oh yeah, and you forgot to lock the door.
