I think I've been captured by the town retards. 3 00:00:23,570 --> 00:00:25,640 >> Snails: (Who's the retard when you're working for a shamed, bitter exile?) 4 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,170 >> Snips: [speaking in pseudo-German] (The fact that you've been banished here to "study 5 00:00:28,170 --> 00:00:30,460 friendship" is telling of just how sad you both are!) 6 00:00:30,460 --> 00:00:32,300 >> Twilight Sparkle: [to Spike] What did they say? 7 00:00:32,300 --> 00:00:35,039 >> Spike: Well, I'm a bit rusty, but I'm pretty sure they just told you that they really like 8 00:00:35,039 --> 00:00:35,610 your hair. 9 00:00:35,610 --> 00:00:37,180 >> Twilight Sparkle: Wait a minute. Are you sure? 10 00:00:37,180 --> 00:00:38,510 >> Snails: (Fat chance! You look embarrassing!) 11 00:00:38,510 --> 00:00:43,930 >> Snips: (Yeah, how's running your hair under the sink working for you?) 12 00:00:43,930 --> 00:00:48,989 >> Pony: What exactly is going on? First, Bubblegum Dancer was standing here, and then 13 00:00:48,989 --> 00:00:53,230 I stood next to her, and then some other pony stood next to me, and now, like, the whole 14 00:00:53,230 --> 00:00:54,570 town is here. [poof] 15 00:00:54,570 --> 00:00:58,070 >> Pony: Oh, my God, something's happening! Oh, hey, it's a magic pony. 16 00:00:58,070 --> 00:01:01,879 >> Trixie: [in deep, gravelly voice] When I was just a filly, both my parents were drama 17 00:01:01,879 --> 00:01:08,180 actors. But one day after a show, a horrible critic came and met my family in a dark alley. 18 00:01:08,180 --> 00:01:13,929 There, disgruntled by my parents' mediocre, mediocre performance, he took a rock and he 19 00:01:13,929 --> 00:01:16,069 smashed both their heads in! 20 00:01:16,069 --> 00:01:17,289 >> Pony: Yaaaaay! 21 00:01:17,289 --> 00:01:22,459 >> Trixie: From that day forward, I declared eternal vengeance on all drama critics everywhere. 22 00:01:22,459 --> 00:01:27,929 I've decided to follow in my parents' stupid, non-lucrative footsteps. Now I travel the 23 00:01:27,929 --> 00:01:33,689 world putting on fantastic shows so I can root out horrible critics who dislike drama 24 00:01:33,689 --> 00:01:36,020 and punish them for their terrible crime. 25 00:01:36,020 --> 00:01:38,599 >> Rarity: So is this, like, the whole show? 26 00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:40,039 >> Trixie: No! 27 00:01:40,039 --> 00:01:41,960 >> Rarity: So what exactly is the show? 28 00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:46,429 >> Trixie: Okay, I really loved Peter Pan On Ice, so I'm going to do a parody of Peter 29 00:01:46,429 --> 00:01:51,310 Pan On Ice, but every character is Darth Vader. That's the hook. But because I love the show, 30 00:01:51,310 --> 00:01:54,779 I really want to stay true to the characters. So I'm gonna be holding open auditions to 31 00:01:54,779 --> 00:01:59,079 look for people who are exactly like Peter Pan if he were Darth Vader. None of this "I'm 32 00:01:59,079 --> 00:02:02,899 a good actor but I only sound kind of like Peter Pan who is Darth Vader"; I need exactly 33 00:02:02,899 --> 00:02:03,729 like the character. 34 00:02:03,729 --> 00:02:05,710 >> Applejack: Well, that's just plumb stupid. 35 00:02:05,710 --> 00:02:07,450 >> Trixie: Also, everyone gets to write. 36 00:02:07,450 --> 00:02:11,150 >> Applejack: Well, that's just plumb stupider! Consarnit, I could single-hoofedly be more 37 00:02:11,150 --> 00:02:12,230 entertaining than that. 38 00:02:12,230 --> 00:02:15,909 >> Trixie: Okay, granted, that might be true. But this is not friendship. That's the issue 39 00:02:15,909 --> 00:02:20,820 that I have here. Okay. Okay! Get off the stage! You're wrecking my show! 40 00:02:20,820 --> 00:02:23,890 >> Rainbow Dash: Well, I think that you show totally and completely sucks. 41 00:02:23,890 --> 00:02:25,430 >> Trixie: Nuh-uh! You suck! 42 00:02:25,430 --> 00:02:26,449 >> Rarity: No, she doesn't. 43 00:02:26,449 --> 00:02:30,060 >> Rainbow Dash: I don't think so. I'm cool.

I'll buy 50 00:02:45,219 --> 00:02:45,859 you some ice cream. 51 00:02:45,859 --> 00:02:48,840 >> Trixie: You! Why did you bring a baby to my show?! 52 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,340 >> Twilight Sparkle: Who, me? He's not exactly your everyday, typical baby. He's really much 53 00:02:53,340 --> 00:02:57,000 smarter than that. Why do you keep interacting with the audience so much? 54 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,560 >> Trixie: Because I'm a drama genius. 55 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,859 >> Rarity: Pffft! She's just trying to get noticed. 56 00:03:01,859 --> 00:03:03,299 >> Spike: I'll give ya a fat lip! 57 00:03:03,299 --> 00:03:05,319 >> Trixie: What do you think you know about drama? 58 00:03:05,319 --> 00:03:09,980 >> Rarity: Well, nothing much really, because I wasn't in the drama club when I was in high 59 00:03:09,980 --> 00:03:14,500 school. I was far, far, far too busy getting laid by cute athletic colts. 60 00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:16,909 >> Trixie: Shut up! I got laid in high school! 61 00:03:16,909 --> 00:03:18,090 >> Twilight Sparkle: Well, I sure didn't... 62 00:03:18,090 --> 00:03:20,400 >> Rarity: It doesn't count if he was in the drama club. 63 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,719 >> Trixie: I once dated a guy in the marching band. 64 00:03:22,719 --> 00:03:24,250 >> Rarity: Well, okay, but was he cute? 65 00:03:24,250 --> 00:03:27,180 >> Trixie: Well, I thought he was cute at the time. 66 00:03:27,180 --> 00:03:29,299 >> Rarity: Well, fine.

Am I in? 84 00:04:08,540 --> 00:04:12,840 >> Trixie: Well, it wasn't quite what I imagined for the part, but okay. 85 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,470 >> Rarity: So excuse me, whatever-your-name-is... 86 00:04:14,470 --> 00:04:18,359 >> Trixie: Trixie. Oh, wait! Shoot! Did I forget that part? Ugh, that was important! 87 00:04:18,359 --> 00:04:22,199 Okay, okay, let's see.

So a long time ago, I got this really 101 00:05:20,590 --> 00:05:24,870 bad rash. I think it was ringworm or something. Anyway, so that's when I bought this cape 102 00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:28,710 so I could cover up the ringworm. And, uh... I forgot where I was going with that, but 103 00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:30,460 the ringworm's gone now. 104 00:05:30,460 --> 00:05:33,979 >> Snails: (Her voice is so beautiful!) 105 00:05:33,979 --> 00:05:36,210 >> Trixie: [sipping] What? 106 00:05:36,210 --> 00:05:41,520 >> Snips: (We were hoping that you might fall in love with us.) 107 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:46,650 >> Snails: (And that maybe one of us would score.

The premise is stupid. 121 00:06:14,330 --> 00:06:15,839 Not to mention the leadership. 122 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,789 >> Snips: (Who cares about a stupid play?

When I was littler, 128 00:06:31,300 --> 00:06:34,629 Twilight put on a show about brushing your teeth for her school. I thought that was really 129 00:06:34,629 --> 00:06:37,840 amazing that everyone could get together and sing like that, and I wanted to try it too. 130 00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:41,419 But you know what they told me? They told me "Nae, Spike, you're Twilight's slave, and 131 00:06:41,419 --> 00:06:44,680 slaves don't get to sing in the school play!

Why aren't you in bed yet? 136 00:06:58,479 --> 00:07:01,280 >> Spike: Because I've stayed up making a list of perfectly good reasons why I should've 137 00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:03,219 been in those plays when you were just a little one! 138 00:07:03,219 --> 00:07:06,120 >> Twilight Sparkle: Well, you know what I think? I think I've had enough of your pissy 139 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:07,860 little attitude today. Go to bed. 140 00:07:07,860 --> 00:07:11,499 >> Spike: Well, you can't just tell me to go to bed. Where's the sport in that? 141 00:07:11,499 --> 00:07:14,430 >> Twilight Sparkle: Go to bed or I will turn you inside out! 142 00:07:14,430 --> 00:07:19,780 >> Spike: I'm not going to bed, and you can't make me!

I'll stay up all night and feel like piss tomorrow. 144 00:07:24,990 --> 00:07:24,990 >> Snips: (How could I have known that would happen!) 145 00:07:30,550 --> 00:07:37,550 >> Spike: [thinking] It's the weirdest thing. Why do I feel hungry after talking to them? 146 00:07:40,289 --> 00:07:40,849 [roar] 147 00:07:40,849 --> 00:07:43,110 >> Spike: [thinking] Oh, shoot! 148 00:07:43,110 --> 00:07:45,919 >> Snips and Snails: [mingled yelling] 149 00:07:45,919 --> 00:07:49,639 >> Trixie: What?!

I guess I can't argue with that. 171 00:08:45,820 --> 00:08:46,890 >> Snips: (Yeah. It's simple when you think about it.) 172 00:08:46,890 --> 00:08:47,950 >> Snails: (You should offer us an apology right now!) 173 00:08:47,950 --> 00:08:49,160 >> Twilight Sparkle: Oh, my God! The hell's going on?! 174 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:49,420 >> Snips: (We brought Trixie a token of our love.) 175 00:08:49,420 --> 00:08:53,330 >> Snails: (And now she is just about to rightfully apologize to us.) 176 00:08:53,330 --> 00:09:00,330 >> Trixie: I'm sorry. Well, I'm not really sorry. But I know that you guys expect an 177 00:09:01,220 --> 00:09:05,200 apology, so if I just pretend to be sorry, then this will all probably just go away. 178 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,300 >> Ursa: [roar] 179 00:09:07,300 --> 00:09:13,300 >> Spike: Go on, Twilight! Use that magic that Celestia taught ya! 180 00:09:13,300 --> 00:09:16,550 >> Twilight Sparkle: Okay. What's next on the list of Celestia's homework? 181 00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:18,760 >> Spike: Celestia says now Spike gets facial hair! 182 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:19,860 >> Twilight Sparkle: Typical. 183 00:09:19,860 --> 00:09:20,830 >> Spike: Do it! 184 00:09:20,830 --> 00:09:23,180 >> Twilight Sparkle: Celestia's training is terrible! 185 00:09:23,180 --> 00:09:25,890 >> Spike: Well, just use that magic that she forbade you from studying. 186 00:09:25,890 --> 00:09:28,010 >> Twilight Sparkle: You mean the spell that could kill everyone? 187 00:09:28,010 --> 00:09:31,120 >> Spike: The one you decided to study anyway without any help or guidance. 188 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,300 >> Trixie: You know, I cannot believe how patient this space bear is being. He should 189 00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:37,910 get a lollipop or something. [explosion] 190 00:09:37,910 --> 00:09:43,840 >> Rainbow Dash: Wow, Twilight! That was amazing! Although, for some reason, I can't really 191 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,580 remember what exactly you did. 192 00:09:45,580 --> 00:09:47,940 >> Twilight Sparkle: It was something illegal involving spacetime. 193 00:09:47,940 --> 00:09:51,540 >> Trixie: Well, I think we've all learned something important about picking out romantic 194 00:09:51,540 --> 00:09:56,570 partners. Dating someone is just like picking out a parakeet from the pet store. You should 195 00:09:56,570 --> 00:10:00,010 always look for a bird that's friendly and getting along with the others. And, uh... 196 00:10:00,010 --> 00:10:01,370 that's all I got. 197 00:10:01,370 --> 00:10:08,370 >> Applejack: Well, it was nice meetin' ya anyway.
