I'm so glad I made it to Las Pegasus before the fastest,
most thrilling ride of all time closes for good!
Wait. The fastest, most thrilling ride of all time?
She hasn't heard of "The Wild Blue Yonder"?
[scoff] Of course, I have!
It's that one where uh...
All right, you got me. What is it?
Only the coolest roller coaster ever!
Pfft. You can't really call yourself a Wonderbolt
if you haven't been on it.
Oh, it looks incredible!
Oh, it is.
First, you strap yourself into the cloud rocket car
and then you're catapulted straight through...
a series of daring dips and terrifying turns...
flipping upside down so many times,
you don't know which way is up...
till finally, you climb to the highest peak on the rails...
then drop towards the ground at lightning speed
before coming up to a screeching halt!
It's the coolest ride ever to exist
in the history of Equestria!
So.. when did you ride it?
Oh. Heh heh. I haven't.
The ride closes this week! Forever!
But I can't go to Las Pegasus
because I have to teach at Twilight's school.
I'm going to miss out
on the coolest roller coaster of all time!
Unless...
Why do I feel like you're about to ask me a mighty big favor?
Can you cover my classes?
Absolutely.
Really? Awesome!
On one condition.
You tag along with a few other ponies goin' to Las Pegasus.
[laughter] Surely you don't mean Granny Smith?
No, no. Of course not!
I mean Granny Smith and the rest of the "Gold Horseshoe Gals!"
Hurry yer haunches, Hinnies!
Grand-Auntie Apple Sauce,
Cousin Apple Rose,
and Cousin Goldie Delicious!
Why, I'm sure they'd be plum tickled to have ya join
their annual Grandmares' trip to Las Pegasus.
It'll be perfect!
I'll teach your classes, and you can look after them for me.
[thwack] Look after them!?
So they don't get too carried away.
Usually, Big Mac goes along as a chaperone,
but I'm sure he'd love a break.
There is NO way I'm going to Las Pegasus with a bunch of
old, slow grannies!
So you don't mind missing your only chance
to ride The Wild Blue Yonder?
Fine! I'll go.
Hah! That's the spirit!
Now skedaddle so I can help 'em get ready.
Granny: Applejack! Have you seen my Cranky Flank cream?
I can't find it in this whole tootin' farmhouse!
It's uh... gonna take a while.
Urghh.
Why is this taking so long?
The Wild Blue Yonder's gonna close
before we even get to Las Pegasus!
Here, I made a list to help ya keep the grandmares
out of trouble.
Don't want to have to bring 'em back home
before you get to go on yer roller coaster!
That could happen!?
Only if you don't follow the rules!
These grannies need a lot of care.
If one of 'em overdoes it,
it's bye bye Las Pegasus for the lot of ya.
"Make sure they get their naps...
eat only soft foods...
careful when dancing...
don't get too excited"!?
Seriously!?
And don't let 'em out of your sight. Ever.
Wait. Then how am I supposed to go on the roller coaster?
You'll find time. And you might even learn a thing or two
about havin' a good time from these old gals.
Yeah, that'll happen.
All right, y'all.
Time to get this show on the road.
Heh. Or in the sky, in this case.
Ugh!
Come on, come on!
Go go go go go!
Agh!
Everypony OK in there?
Dandy as a pansy in a plant pot!
You know, this hot air balloon ride reminds me of the time
I climbed a tree!
Have I ever told you that story?
Only about a million times!
HUH? What did ya say?
They said they've heard the tree story!
Oh, you want to hear the tree story? OK!
Here we go again..
Back when I was a young filly, I was afraid of tree-climbing!
Knees knocking, hooves sweating...
Have you ever had the hoof sweats?
Well, they're just the worst thing.
You know, Cousin Strudel, she used to get em too.
Now, of course she was a champion fritter thrower-
The Wild Blue Yonder is IN OUR HOTEL?
Uh, I bet you grannies are feeling super tired
from your journey.
Nope. How about a trot down the avenue
to see the sights, girls?
Oh, forget the sights!
I came here to play some serious horseshoe toss!
Oh, can we see the rainbow fountains at the water show?
They're so magical.
My pores are crying for a mud mask at the Prism Palace spa!
You know what would be REALLY FUN?
Relaxing in our room!
C'mon! Last one to the hotel is a rotten apple!
Lemme get that for ya.
Omigosh, omigosh, omigosh, omigosh!
There it is..
The best rollercoaster ever!
Oow! Warm up those withers, ladies!
There's a horseshoe hurling trophy with our names on it!
[ghostly voice] Don't let them get too excited.
Or you'll have to go home!
[gasp] Whoa, whoa, whoa,
That sounds a little too exciting.
Why don't we get you checked in first?
Oh, my, you are a strong pony, aren't you, Sugar Hocks?
Ugh.
Welcome to our Gold Horseshoe suite!
Only the best of the best for our favorite guests.
Which of course means you lovely mares.
Why, thank ya a bushel and a peck,
you scrumptious morsel o' frosted carrot cake!
Oh, uh... Thank you, ma'am.
I think he was sweet on me. Maybe I should ask him
to accompany me to the magic show tonight.
Bah hah!
Sure your name's not Apple Saucy?
Better find the brakes on that buggy, sugar!
We just got here!
You're right. Better see what else is out there first.
The day is young and I am not!
Uh. Granny Smith's right! Let's not overdo it.
How about a nice nap so you can really enjoy Las Pegasus?
Good idea!
We could use some shut-eye, hm?
But I'm not tired....
Oh! Right!
Uh, yawn...
You go along now and explore while we rest, sugar booger.
Yawn.
If you say so!
What? They'll be in here sleeping
the whole time I'm gone.
Quit judging me!
[Ahem] One ticket for the coolest roller coaster
of all time, please.
But... but... This line never ends!
I know, right?
Good thing we can just stand here all day
without any responsibilities waiting for us!
Oh, hey, thanks!
Enjoy the ride.
Heh. They didn't even know I left.
Whoa!
Meow?
Gaaahh!
♪♪
They're gone!
Granny Smith! Apple Rose! Are you here?
Apple Sauce?
Goldie?
[groan] I'm the worst chaperone ever.
Don't let them out of your siiiight!
I know, I know!
Excuse me, sir?
Have you seen a group of old mares around here?
Lady, you just described half the ponies in this place.
Oh! This place is huge!
They could be anywhere!
[chanting] Goldie! Goldie! Goldie! Goldie!
Can they do it?
Can good ole Goldie Delicious and the Gold Horseshoe Gals
break the all-time resort record, folks?
Now that's how you hurl a horseshoe!
Hah! No way! Goldie's totally got game!
Make some noise for the best-played game of horseshoes
this resort has ever seen!
Can you believe your eyes, folks?
Yeah! Go Goldie!
Stand back; she's getting excited!
Huh?
Uh oh.
Uh... Mind if I try?
Whoops, guess I'm no good at this game.
Sorry.
And the Gold Horseshoe Gals are out!
Looks like the show's over, everypony.
Awwwww!
Oh, I'm so glad I found you.
Everypony feeling OK?
Not too excited?
Pretty much the opposite right now.
Good.
From now on, I'm not letting you grannies out of my sight!
In that case, let's paint the town candy apple red!
Oooh! We could play more games!
Or go shopping for hats!
Have I ever told you about the time I got a new hat
and it turned out to be a bird? Ha ha ha ha.
THAT'S what we oughta do!
REALLY?
Hit the buffet!
All that horseshoe tossin' sure works up an appy-tite.
[sigh] Uh huh.
I love me some nachos!
I'mma set my dentures loose on these viddles
until the crumbs cry uncle!
They can only eat soft fooods!
You're a nacho away from no rolleycoaster!
[zoom] [chomp]
Come on, Granny!
You know you can't have those.
They're super crunchy!
How about some nice, soft carrot soup instead?
I thought you was supposed to be the fun one.
Wait! I am fun!
P.A. System: Attention all thrill-seekers!
There's only one day left to ride the ride of all rides:
the Wild Blue Yonder, before it's gone for good!
Get in line! Now!
So, what does everypony want to do tonight?
I was thinking...
go to our room and put on eyemasks and earplugs?
I'd rather hit the club and show off my dance moves.
I'm quite a legend when it comes to rhumba.
Sounds kind of intense.
Aren't you all exhausted from your big day?
Heck no!
We save up our energy all year for Las Pegasus weekend!
Isn't that right, girls?
Mm hm!
Ugh. Dancing it is, then.
I'll be there...
[haunting voice] Careful when dancing!
UGH! Stop doing that!
Uh, that's probably enough dancing for now!
Right, Apple Rose?
Oh, that was just my warm up!
Look! It's our favorite magicians...
Big Bucks and Jackpot!
And aren't they looking handsome as ever!
You little fillies have got some smooth moves!
Say, how would you Gold Horseshoe Gals like to bring
some of that good energy into our magic show tonight?
Here's five complimentary VIP tickets
to our most amazing trick, in the Pony Fantastique Theater.
Just over there.
Sugarcube, we never miss your show.
Fabulous!
We'll save a spot for you...
on stage.
And.. in our hearts.
So gross.
Yeee haw, girls!
Apple Sauce landed us some Very Important Pony tickets
for the show tonight!
Hee hee hee hee!
Oh, come on!
You said you were going back to the room after dancing!
So each pony could have some alone time?
Oh, now don't be a stick in the mud.
Trust me, you'll love this show.
It's the best thing in Las Pegasus.
Whoo hoo!
Oh, hey, thanks for giving me your place in line!
They said I'm one of the last ponies ever
to ride the Wild Blue Yonder!
And now, for the trick that made us famous.
The most dangerous magical feat known to ponykind.
We'd like to invite some very special mares to the stage.
That's our cue, girls!
Hey! Where are you going?
Come back!
Meet our lovely assistants.
They will make a Splashtastic Escape
using only the instructions we give them...
with our minds!
Don't try this at home, folks!
Do I really have to say anything?
Release those grannies right now!
[sploosh] [shouts from the audience]
What'd ya go and do that for?
That was our big star moment!
You were in danger!
I saw the water!
You were trapped!
Oh, pish tosh!
This is a magic show.
We've seen it a thousand times.
Everypony always escapes.
That's right, folks!
Because of our.. um... uh... skill as magicians!
And now, a disappearing act!
Well, I hope you're happy.
We've been waiting to be picked as the lovely assistants
in that trick for years!
You keep ruining our fun!
I had a hot hoof goin' in that game
you decided to lose for us!
And I wanted to eat those nachos at the buffet.
And I could have torn up the dance floor,
if you didn't keep stopping me.
They're being too polite to say it, so I will.
Rainbow Dash, we thought you'd be a hoot,
but I ain't never met a wetter hen!
What?!
She's right.
You've had your mane in a twist ever since we arrived.
Is something the matter, dear?
I'm so sorry, everypony!
The truth is, all I've wanted to do for this whole trip is
ride the Wild Blue Yonder!
I mean, it's why I came to Las Pegasus in the first place!
Applejack told me not to let you out of my sight,
or you might overdo it and we'd have to go home early.
Applejack put you up to this?
Well, now it's too late.
I ruined your trip and it's the last day ever
to ride the Wild Blue Yonder.
The line is so long, I'll never get to go on it.
Hey! What's so funny?
[chuckle] Is that all you wanted?
Well, fish-flavored kitten-kibble.
Why didn't you say so sooner?
Come on, girls!
We're "Gold Horseshoe" members!
The most exclusive club in Las Pegasus.
And she's with us.
We've been comin' here every moon since we can remember.
Even some we don't remember!
It definitely has its perks.
Like fancy suites and roller coaster rides?
That's right!
And I hope you like riding in the front.
Um, YES!
[giggle] This is amazing!
Isn't this amazing?
Sugar. You probably want to hold on 'bout now.
Whoo hoo!
I'm sorry I misjudged you for being older ponies.
You mares are actually pretty cool.
Rainbow Dash?
Yeah, Granny?
The gals and I have been talkin' and well...
we think you're a hoot after all.
We'd like to invite you to become a permanent member
of the "Gold Horseshoe Gals"! Hoo hoo!
O-oh! Really!?
Mm hm.
Same time next year?
I wouldn't miss it for anything.
