1
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:09,660
Oh Sassy Saddles,
2
00:00:09,660 --> 00:00:13,480
don't you just love my new
Femme Mystique Chic line of gowns?
3
00:00:13,870 --> 00:00:17,090
Sequins and sashes,
Rarity, they're exquisite!
4
00:00:17,090 --> 00:00:19,630
Where in Equestria did
you find the inspiration?
5
00:00:19,630 --> 00:00:23,760
Oh, I modeled them after
the adventures of Shadow Spade.
6
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,100
Her stories are always
full of mystery, suspense,
7
00:00:27,100 --> 00:00:30,660
and best of all,
fabulous costumes!
8
00:00:30,980 --> 00:00:32,760
They're perfect!
9
00:00:33,250 --> 00:00:34,450
What are you doing?
10
00:00:35,950 --> 00:00:38,560
Oh, ah, just making
some minor adjustments.
11
00:00:40,980 --> 00:00:45,000
Shadow Spade believes it all
comes down to attention to detail.
12
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:45,940
And so do I.
13
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,200
There!
14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,200
Now it's perfect.
15
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,360
Hey guys, how's it-
16
00:00:56,740 --> 00:00:57,560
My bad.
17
00:01:36,850 --> 00:01:39,570
Sorry I messed up
your dress thingie.
18
00:01:40,380 --> 00:01:42,520
Nothing we can't fix in a stitch.
19
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,700
What are you doing in Canterlot?
20
00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:47,990
I'm here for Princess Celestia's
Royal Garden opening tomorrow.
21
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:52,820
Oh, yes! Rumor has it the gardens
are especially lush this season.
22
00:01:52,820 --> 00:01:55,000
I heard that the Wonderbolts
will be kicking
23
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,320
things off with an aerial display.
24
00:01:57,590 --> 00:02:01,250
You heard right. And Rainbow Dash
is here to fly with them.
25
00:02:01,250 --> 00:02:02,380
So exciting!
26
00:02:02,380 --> 00:02:04,540
Well, kind of exciting.
27
00:02:04,540 --> 00:02:06,420
Technically, I'm not flying.
28
00:02:06,420 --> 00:02:08,660
I'm just the lucky Reserve
who was called in to be
29
00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:11,160
the backup flyer in case
a Wonderbolt can't perform.
30
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,390
Oh, don't be so modest.
31
00:02:13,390 --> 00:02:16,230
Out of all the reserves,
you were the one chosen.
32
00:02:16,390 --> 00:02:20,190
It is pretty sweet. And I do
get to stay in the castle,
33
00:02:20,190 --> 00:02:21,540
hang out with the Wonderbolts,
34
00:02:21,540 --> 00:02:23,810
and eat awesome food
at the dinner tonight.
35
00:02:24,190 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaking of the dinner,
you're still coming, right?
36
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,510
Heavens, yes!
A chance to dress up,
37
00:02:29,510 --> 00:02:32,920
be charming and show off
my newest femme mystique couture?
38
00:02:33,450 --> 00:02:35,820
I wouldn't miss it
for all of Equestria.
39
00:02:35,820 --> 00:02:37,550
Great! See ya tonight!
40
00:02:45,700 --> 00:02:48,430
Oh, the rhinestones I ordered!
41
00:02:50,910 --> 00:02:54,230
Oh my, oh, there's
been a mistake...
42
00:02:54,230 --> 00:02:58,100
I ordered thread uncut stones,
and these are hoof-polished.
43
00:02:58,100 --> 00:03:01,020
I'm sorry, but I've got a full
load of deliveries today,
44
00:03:01,020 --> 00:03:03,570
I'm not sure I have time
to re-do your order.
45
00:03:07,530 --> 00:03:13,050
Of course you don't.
Your job is so difficult, honestly,
46
00:03:13,050 --> 00:03:15,940
I don't know how you keep
all of those orders straight.
47
00:03:15,940 --> 00:03:19,980
Aheh, it is pretty tough, what
with all of the boxes all being...
48
00:03:19,980 --> 00:03:21,240
box-shaped.
49
00:03:21,940 --> 00:03:25,650
Oh, y- oh yes, and I
very much appreciate it,
50
00:03:25,780 --> 00:03:30,070
but if there was any way you could
squeeze in one more little delivery
51
00:03:30,070 --> 00:03:32,420
I would be eternally grateful.
52
00:03:36,130 --> 00:03:39,540
Well, for you, Rarity,
I'll see what I can do.
53
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,060
Rarity, you could sweet-talk
a filly out of candy!
54
00:03:45,060 --> 00:03:47,000
Oh, it was nothing.
55
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,610
Nopony minds a compliment.
56
00:03:48,990 --> 00:03:52,270
Now, you simply must help me
pick out an outfit for tonight!
57
00:03:52,270 --> 00:03:54,530
Something from the new
collection, of course!
58
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,770
Let's grab some grub!
59
00:04:14,590 --> 00:04:17,590
Mm, is that Juniper Phoenix
I smell?
60
00:04:17,590 --> 00:04:18,870
No, it's broccoli!
61
00:04:20,860 --> 00:04:25,000
Yeah, Juniper Phoenix is one
of my favorite stallion colognes.
62
00:04:25,170 --> 00:04:28,100
Oh, mine as well,
it's masculine and then-
63
00:04:28,100 --> 00:04:31,010
Sorry, with the fairest hint
of floral notes, and-
64
00:04:31,010 --> 00:04:33,650
Rarity! Don't you know
who this is?!
65
00:04:38,050 --> 00:04:41,660
A gentlepony with fabulous
taste in colognes and scarves?
66
00:04:42,070 --> 00:04:44,200
It's Wind Rider!
67
00:04:44,740 --> 00:04:46,910
Oh! So nice to meet you!
68
00:04:46,910 --> 00:04:48,120
You didn't let me finish!
69
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,120
He's a living legend.
70
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,230
He holds the Wonderbolts
record in the Mustang Marathon!
71
00:04:53,230 --> 00:04:55,720
Ah, that was a long time ago.
72
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,020
Honestly, I can't believe
I still hold the record.
73
00:04:59,020 --> 00:05:01,780
Wind Rider, I see you
met Rainbow Dash!
74
00:05:01,780 --> 00:05:04,190
She's one of our most
promising reserves.
75
00:05:04,390 --> 00:05:06,190
She just might beat your record!
76
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,410
Really now?
77
00:05:07,410 --> 00:05:10,410
Oh, I'm nowhere near
as good as you.
78
00:05:10,410 --> 00:05:12,090
I mean, I'm fast,
79
00:05:12,090 --> 00:05:14,860
but I don't have the endurance
to go long distances.
80
00:05:14,860 --> 00:05:16,860
Ah, don't be modest.
81
00:05:16,860 --> 00:05:19,850
A little practice and you'll be
beating records in no time.
82
00:05:20,940 --> 00:05:24,290
Heheh. Well, it's nice
to meet you fillies.
83
00:05:24,590 --> 00:05:27,930
Not as nice as it is
to meet you, sir.
84
00:05:29,530 --> 00:05:32,550
I can't believe I just
met Wind Rider!
85
00:05:32,550 --> 00:05:36,070
Yeah, he's coming out of retirement
to take the spot of honor
86
00:05:36,070 --> 00:05:39,110
in the centre of our aerial
flower formation tomorrow.
87
00:05:39,110 --> 00:05:41,860
Really? That's incredible!
88
00:05:46,810 --> 00:05:50,730
Guess I'll just watch Wind Rider
being awesome from the sidelines...
89
00:05:50,980 --> 00:05:53,970
Practice tomorrow
is gonna be so boring.
90
00:05:53,970 --> 00:05:56,650
I don't suppose I could
keep you company?
91
00:05:56,900 --> 00:06:00,850
You could! They always let friends
and family come watch practices!
92
00:06:00,850 --> 00:06:02,250
Mm- ooh!
93
00:06:02,250 --> 00:06:04,700
Oops, heh, sorry about that.
94
00:06:04,700 --> 00:06:06,700
Lemme help you clean that up.
95
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,140
No no, it's almost impossible
to get stains out of silk.
96
00:06:11,350 --> 00:06:12,610
But not to worry.
97
00:06:14,910 --> 00:06:16,600
I've come prepared!
98
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,780
That dinner was absolutely divine.
99
00:06:22,780 --> 00:06:24,380
Thanks for inviting me!
100
00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:27,260
Ooh, staying in the east tower?
101
00:06:27,260 --> 00:06:29,750
Those rooms have
the best view of Canterlot!
102
00:06:29,750 --> 00:06:32,200
How lucky are we? Oh well,
103
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,420
we better get some shut-eye
before practice.
104
00:06:35,390 --> 00:06:36,950
See you tomorrow, Rarity!
105
00:06:36,950 --> 00:06:38,500
Good night!
106
00:06:47,740 --> 00:06:49,720
Thanks for keeping me
company, Rarity.
107
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,390
If you weren't here, well,
108
00:06:51,390 --> 00:06:53,850
I don't know who I'd be
talking to right now.
109
00:06:55,340 --> 00:06:57,270
Eh, you'd be talkin' to me.
110
00:06:57,610 --> 00:07:01,240
Rainbow Dash, Spitfire's mom
sent a message saying she was sick,
111
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,940
she had to leave
to take care of her.
112
00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:06,350
Oh no! I hope her mom's okay!
113
00:07:06,350 --> 00:07:11,490
Me too. In the meantime,
we need you to fly in her place.
114
00:07:11,490 --> 00:07:14,550
W-wait, you mean
the actual show?
115
00:07:14,550 --> 00:07:16,870
Unless Spitfire comes back, yes.
116
00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:19,910
I won't let you down, Soarin'!
117
00:07:21,700 --> 00:07:24,330
This is the best thing ever!
118
00:07:24,330 --> 00:07:26,520
Ohmygoshohmygosh
ohmygoshohmygosh!
119
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,490
I'm gonna get to fly with Wind Rider
and the Wonderbolts,
120
00:07:30,490 --> 00:07:34,370
cuz I'm the greatest, and I'm
awesome, and they know it-
121
00:07:34,370 --> 00:07:36,010
Uh... Rainbow Dash?
122
00:07:36,010 --> 00:07:38,470
Shh! Let her have this, darling.
123
00:07:51,910 --> 00:07:54,040
Hello there! Friend or family?
124
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,330
Family. My daughter's a Wonderbolt,
but I don't see her up there...
125
00:07:58,330 --> 00:07:59,750
Do you know Spitfire?
126
00:07:59,750 --> 00:08:02,450
Ooh, you're Spitfire's mum...?
127
00:08:02,660 --> 00:08:04,230
But I thought you were sick?
128
00:08:04,230 --> 00:08:05,130
What?
129
00:08:05,130 --> 00:08:08,070
Well, Spitfire got a note from you
saying you weren't feeling well,
130
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:09,890
and she went home
to take care of you.
131
00:08:09,890 --> 00:08:11,480
I didn't send a note.
132
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,480
That's so strange.
133
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,810
Stormy Flare? Aren't you
supposed to be sick?
134
00:08:17,060 --> 00:08:18,260
Kay, what's happening?
135
00:08:18,260 --> 00:08:22,470
I don't know! But I do know I didn't
send my daughter a note.
136
00:08:22,470 --> 00:08:25,710
Could somepony have
sent Spitfire a fake note?
137
00:08:25,710 --> 00:08:27,630
Who would do such a thing?
138
00:08:27,630 --> 00:08:30,500
Somepony who wanted her
out of the show I suppose.
139
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:32,490
Why would anypony want that?
140
00:08:32,490 --> 00:08:35,410
Maybe so they could
take her spot.
141
00:08:43,220 --> 00:08:46,410
Me?! I would never
do that to Spitfire!
142
00:08:46,410 --> 00:08:48,150
Why would you think it was me?
143
00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:51,130
I did see you and Spitfire
leave the dinner together.
144
00:08:51,130 --> 00:08:52,890
We were room neighbors
in the castle!
145
00:08:52,890 --> 00:08:56,890
And you did say you'd do
anything to fly with Wind Rider.
146
00:08:56,890 --> 00:08:59,780
Yeah, but I didn't mean anything.
147
00:08:59,780 --> 00:09:02,030
Spitfire came by my room
and told me
148
00:09:02,030 --> 00:09:04,550
she had to go see her mom
at around midnight.
149
00:09:04,550 --> 00:09:06,350
Where were you then?
150
00:09:06,650 --> 00:09:08,220
I was asleep at midnight...
151
00:09:08,220 --> 00:09:10,640
having this totally amazing dream.
152
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,420
There I was, at the arena,
153
00:09:12,420 --> 00:09:14,960
flying with Wind Rider
and the Wonderbolts,
154
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,260
like I've always wanted to-
155
00:09:17,860 --> 00:09:20,630
-ah, eh, nevermind. Not helping.
156
00:09:25,410 --> 00:09:28,270
Rainbow Dash, if you can
prove somepony else
157
00:09:28,270 --> 00:09:31,770
is behind Spitfire's disappearance
before the start of the show,
158
00:09:31,940 --> 00:09:33,940
then you can still fly with us.
159
00:09:34,110 --> 00:09:38,330
In the meantime, Misty Fly, Blaze,
head over to Stormy Flare's house,
160
00:09:38,330 --> 00:09:40,610
try to find Spitfire
and bring her back.
161
00:09:41,990 --> 00:09:46,740
I have to warn you, if you sent
that letter, the by-laws are clear.
162
00:09:46,740 --> 00:09:50,660
I'd have no choice but to ban you
from the Wonderbolts forever.
163
00:09:50,660 --> 00:09:52,100
Understand?
164
00:09:53,050 --> 00:09:54,430
I understand.
165
00:09:54,430 --> 00:09:55,980
But how am I gonna prove
166
00:09:55,980 --> 00:09:58,550
I didn't send a letter
that I didn't send?!
167
00:09:58,980 --> 00:10:00,510
With me!
168
00:10:02,060 --> 00:10:03,920
Detective Rarity
is on the case,
169
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,810
and we are going to
get to the bottom
170
00:10:05,810 --> 00:10:08,110
of this faster than
my costume change!
171
00:10:08,110 --> 00:10:10,420
...Yeah, what's with the getup?
172
00:10:10,420 --> 00:10:13,350
Obviously, I am channeling
Shadow Spade
173
00:10:13,350 --> 00:10:15,350
through these gorgeous garments,
174
00:10:15,350 --> 00:10:16,970
and she would say that
the best way to prove
175
00:10:16,970 --> 00:10:19,730
you didn't send the letter
is to find out whoever did.
176
00:10:20,010 --> 00:10:22,810
First up, the scene of the crime!
177
00:10:25,740 --> 00:10:28,800
We had a long road ahead
of us, Rainbow Dash and I.
178
00:10:29,140 --> 00:10:31,840
Well, not too long because
we didn't have much time,
179
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,820
but the point is I was up
for the challenge.
180
00:10:41,350 --> 00:10:43,890
There I was, surveying
the crime scene,
181
00:10:44,420 --> 00:10:46,690
and looking très chic
while doing it.
182
00:10:50,580 --> 00:10:53,730
This must be the envelope
for the letter Spitfire got!
183
00:10:57,310 --> 00:11:02,430
Hm, these look like hairs
from a rainbow mane!
184
00:11:03,220 --> 00:11:04,910
That's not good.
185
00:11:07,050 --> 00:11:08,890
Rainbow Dash was getting antsy,
186
00:11:08,890 --> 00:11:12,940
but I had faith I could clear
her name and find the real culprit.
187
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,900
What are you doing?
188
00:11:14,970 --> 00:11:16,860
Uh, just thinking thoughts.
189
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,380
Rainbow Dash was right.
190
00:11:20,380 --> 00:11:23,180
In order to solve the mystery,
we had to be focused.
191
00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:24,340
Driven.
192
00:11:24,340 --> 00:11:28,130
One hundred percent in the- Ooh!
193
00:11:28,130 --> 00:11:31,060
The damas pattern on
these curtains is exquisite!
194
00:11:31,060 --> 00:11:34,700
Oh, and this velvet rope-holder,
oh, it's just-
195
00:11:34,700 --> 00:11:36,670
We don't have time to
look at the décor!
196
00:11:36,670 --> 00:11:40,020
They're gonna kick me out of
the Wonderbolts unless we solve this thing!
197
00:11:40,130 --> 00:11:43,590
I know, Rainbow, and I'm on this case
like a charm on a bracelet!
198
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,350
Here's what I'm thinking:
199
00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:48,390
Somepony had to bring
Spitfire that letter,
200
00:11:48,390 --> 00:11:52,230
which means somepony
must have seen them!
201
00:11:55,130 --> 00:11:57,280
I just have a few
questions for you,
202
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,160
and I'm sure once we get
some things cleared up, we'll-
203
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,700
Come on, Rarity,
we don't have all day!
204
00:12:02,700 --> 00:12:05,530
Where were you on the night
of last night at midnight?!
205
00:12:05,530 --> 00:12:08,570
We were here, guarding the hallway
entrance like we were supposed to.
206
00:12:08,570 --> 00:12:10,570
A likely story.
207
00:12:10,570 --> 00:12:12,340
I'm telling you,
we were there all night,
208
00:12:12,340 --> 00:12:15,040
and no-one went in
or out of that hallway.
209
00:12:16,210 --> 00:12:17,020
Except for you.
210
00:12:17,020 --> 00:12:18,580
What are you tryin' to say?!
211
00:12:18,580 --> 00:12:21,500
Just that there are only two rooms
in the north-west wing,
212
00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:23,170
yours and Spitfire's,
213
00:12:23,430 --> 00:12:27,990
so the only other pony who had
access to that wing was you.
214
00:12:29,580 --> 00:12:31,290
The waters were getting choppy.
215
00:12:31,290 --> 00:12:34,830
Rainbow Dash's tactics
were, well, horrid.
216
00:12:35,290 --> 00:12:37,350
It was time for another approach.
217
00:12:37,680 --> 00:12:40,300
Perhaps I should
take it from here!
218
00:12:42,950 --> 00:12:46,180
You castle guards have
such a difficult job.
219
00:12:46,180 --> 00:12:49,210
I'm guessing at times
it can be rather...
220
00:12:49,460 --> 00:12:50,550
boring.
221
00:12:51,420 --> 00:12:54,140
It is. I've counted all three hundred
and forty five bolts
222
00:12:54,140 --> 00:12:56,580
in the ceiling tiles two hundred
and ninety three times!
223
00:12:56,580 --> 00:13:00,510
And of course being a castle guard
can be thankless work.
224
00:13:00,650 --> 00:13:03,810
I'm not saying you did,
but if you took a break,
225
00:13:03,810 --> 00:13:05,930
you more than deserved it.
226
00:13:06,310 --> 00:13:09,990
You're right, we don't get a lot
of recognition for what we do.
227
00:13:09,990 --> 00:13:11,250
Except for last night,
228
00:13:11,250 --> 00:13:14,010
when somepony was nice enough
to leave a cake for us.
229
00:13:14,010 --> 00:13:17,360
So we did take one little break
when we ate that cake.
230
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:18,860
What kind of cake was it?
231
00:13:18,860 --> 00:13:20,150
Cherry with a custard filling.
232
00:13:20,150 --> 00:13:21,610
Was the frosting vanilla
or chocolate?
233
00:13:21,610 --> 00:13:22,130
Chocolate.
234
00:13:22,130 --> 00:13:24,070
Was the base of the cake decorated
with buttercream rosettes?
235
00:13:24,070 --> 00:13:24,830
It was.
236
00:13:24,830 --> 00:13:28,160
Ugh, who cares how
it was decorated?!
237
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,480
Rainbow Dash was questioning
my methods.
238
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,400
But I knew what I was doing.
239
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,430
Do you?
240
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,960
Oh, oh, oh, did I say
that one out loud...?
241
00:13:37,110 --> 00:13:40,150
I mean, even I think
I'm guilty at this point!
242
00:13:40,150 --> 00:13:42,570
I really did want to fly
in that show!
243
00:13:42,570 --> 00:13:44,820
What if I wrote that note
while I was asleep?!
244
00:13:44,950 --> 00:13:46,370
Do you know what
I do when I sleep?
245
00:13:46,370 --> 00:13:47,760
Because I sure don't!
246
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,190
Oh calm down, Rainbow Dash.
247
00:13:50,190 --> 00:13:51,820
We'll get to the bottom of this.
248
00:13:51,820 --> 00:13:54,190
There's only one bakery
in Canterlot that makes
249
00:13:54,190 --> 00:13:56,000
a chocolate cherry cake
with custard filling
250
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,410
and buttercream frosting
rosettes and that's...
251
00:13:58,950 --> 00:14:01,660
...Cinnamon Chai's Tea
and Cake Shop!
252
00:14:02,430 --> 00:14:05,030
Hello, how can I help you?
253
00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:07,550
I've heard you have the best
chocolate cherry custard cake
254
00:14:07,550 --> 00:14:09,730
with buttercream frosting
rosettes in town!
255
00:14:09,730 --> 00:14:12,080
Ah, you travel in
the right circles!
256
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,970
We have the only chocolate
cherry custard cake
257
00:14:14,970 --> 00:14:17,520
with buttercream frosting
rosettes in town!
258
00:14:18,580 --> 00:14:21,200
Oh no, but somepony's
already bought it!
259
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,140
Who was the lucky pony?
260
00:14:24,260 --> 00:14:26,080
I can't even say!
261
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,050
Why? Because it was
somepony famous?
262
00:14:29,050 --> 00:14:31,980
No, because it was hard to tell!
263
00:14:33,130 --> 00:14:36,150
She was wearing a trench coat,
sunglasses and a scarf
264
00:14:36,150 --> 00:14:38,700
around her head that covered
most of her face.
265
00:14:38,700 --> 00:14:43,140
But I do remember she had
a really deep, raspy voice.
266
00:14:43,140 --> 00:14:45,070
What do you mean, raspy?
267
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,970
Well, kinda like yours.
268
00:14:49,260 --> 00:14:51,760
If there's anything else
you can remember, dish.
269
00:14:51,890 --> 00:14:54,710
Well, have I got a story for you!
270
00:14:54,710 --> 00:14:56,820
The pony who bought it
threw a big fit
271
00:14:56,820 --> 00:15:00,290
when she accidentally got
chocolate ganache on her scarf!
272
00:15:00,290 --> 00:15:03,710
That's terrible! What color
was the scarf?
273
00:15:03,710 --> 00:15:08,010
White! No, maybe kind of ivory...
274
00:15:08,010 --> 00:15:09,450
You don't say!
275
00:15:09,450 --> 00:15:12,900
I can't believe you're talking
fashion at a time like this!
276
00:15:12,900 --> 00:15:14,740
Rainbow, don't panic.
277
00:15:14,740 --> 00:15:16,410
I need you to trust me.
278
00:15:16,410 --> 00:15:19,780
Trust you?! You've spent more
time changing clothes
279
00:15:19,780 --> 00:15:21,180
than trying to help me!
280
00:15:21,180 --> 00:15:23,180
I'm doomed!
281
00:15:23,180 --> 00:15:25,760
No, you're not! Come on!
282
00:15:34,900 --> 00:15:36,950
Rainbow Dash was obviously upset,
283
00:15:36,950 --> 00:15:39,350
but I had all my ducks in a row.
284
00:15:39,350 --> 00:15:41,490
Except one.
285
00:15:41,830 --> 00:15:43,500
She was not going to like it,
286
00:15:43,500 --> 00:15:45,510
but there was only
one way to find out
287
00:15:45,510 --> 00:15:47,780
if my suspicions were correct.
288
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,870
We looked everywhere, but Spitfire
wasn't at her mom's house!
289
00:15:55,870 --> 00:15:57,660
Where could she be?
290
00:15:59,670 --> 00:16:01,930
I have found the culprit!
291
00:16:03,810 --> 00:16:08,100
Somepony sent Spitfire away
and framed Rainbow Dash for it.
292
00:16:08,290 --> 00:16:11,670
And that pony was
none other than...
293
00:16:12,130 --> 00:16:14,080
Wind Rider!
294
00:16:20,130 --> 00:16:24,450
Rarity, I can't believe you would
accuse Wind Rider of framing me!
295
00:16:24,450 --> 00:16:27,070
He's a living legend,
for pony's sake!
296
00:16:27,070 --> 00:16:30,080
All the evidence points to him!
297
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,560
Peh, what evidence
could you possibly have?
298
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,510
All you did was ask
about cake, admire décor,
299
00:16:35,510 --> 00:16:37,590
and change outfits
a gazillion times!
300
00:16:37,590 --> 00:16:41,590
Let me explain. I never believed
you would send Spitfire away.
301
00:16:41,590 --> 00:16:45,030
When we found the rainbow hairs
in Spitfire's room,
302
00:16:45,030 --> 00:16:49,230
I could tell they didn't fall out,
they were cut!
303
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,990
Nopony loses hair in a chunk,
and look at the ends,
304
00:16:53,990 --> 00:16:55,430
it's a straight line!
305
00:16:55,430 --> 00:16:59,920
They were clearly cut with shears,
which means somepony planted it!
306
00:17:00,060 --> 00:17:02,730
Then when we were
examining Spitfire's room,
307
00:17:03,070 --> 00:17:05,580
I smelled something
on the envelope.
308
00:17:05,580 --> 00:17:09,450
Juniper Phoenix, Wind Rider's
cologne of choice!
309
00:17:09,650 --> 00:17:12,200
Then, in the castle hallway,
310
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,450
I noticed some of
the damas curtains
311
00:17:14,450 --> 00:17:16,170
fell out of their
velvet rope-holder,
312
00:17:16,170 --> 00:17:19,810
indicating that somepony
had been hiding behind them!
313
00:17:19,810 --> 00:17:22,680
Perhaps after they dropped
off the fake letter?
314
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,450
Juniper Phoenix is a very
popular fragrance,
315
00:17:25,450 --> 00:17:27,600
and anypony could have
moved those curtains.
316
00:17:27,750 --> 00:17:31,110
Precisely why I questioned
the castle guards!
317
00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:34,530
They were at their post at the
entrance to the hallway all night,
318
00:17:34,530 --> 00:17:39,340
except for a small window of time
when somepony brought them cake,
319
00:17:39,900 --> 00:17:43,870
a cake that was ordered by
a girl pony with a raspy voice!
320
00:17:43,870 --> 00:17:47,930
Whoever ordered the cake got
a chocolate stain on her ivory scarf,
321
00:17:48,780 --> 00:17:51,490
and I couldn't help but notice
that Wind Rider's scarf
322
00:17:51,490 --> 00:17:53,170
is tied in a tight
Windsor knot,
323
00:17:53,170 --> 00:17:55,740
instead of its usual
loose-slip knot!
324
00:17:55,740 --> 00:17:57,290
And why is that?
325
00:17:57,290 --> 00:18:01,770
Is it to hide
the chocolate stain?!
326
00:18:02,700 --> 00:18:04,800
Ah, this is preposterous.
327
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,840
Wonderbolts, you don't believe
a word of this, right?
328
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,290
Just admit it – you're as guilty
of framing Rainbow Dash
329
00:18:11,290 --> 00:18:13,870
as you are of ruining
that ivory scarf!
330
00:18:14,470 --> 00:18:16,510
Fffine, you caught me!
331
00:18:16,510 --> 00:18:17,520
I did it!
332
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,960
But why, Wind Rider?!
333
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,680
Was it because I took
the last broccoli
334
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,810
at the dinner and you really,
really wanted it?
335
00:18:25,170 --> 00:18:27,590
No. It was because he was afraid
336
00:18:27,590 --> 00:18:31,020
that you would break his
long-distance Wonderbolt record!
337
00:18:31,180 --> 00:18:33,180
I heard him when Spitfire said
338
00:18:33,180 --> 00:18:34,870
you were close to
breaking his record.
339
00:18:34,870 --> 00:18:37,730
He said, and I quote, 'Heheh'.
340
00:18:38,060 --> 00:18:40,150
That's the polite yet disingenuous
laugh you make
341
00:18:40,150 --> 00:18:42,680
when you want to seem
happy but really you're not.
342
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,320
I thought if I could get
Rainbow Dash kicked out
343
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,000
of the Wonderbolts forever,
my record could be preserved.
344
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,290
Really? That is so not cool,
345
00:18:52,290 --> 00:18:54,870
and I thought you were
the coolest Wonderbolt ever.
346
00:18:54,870 --> 00:18:55,970
Until now.
347
00:18:55,970 --> 00:18:58,830
I did what I had to do
to protect my record!
348
00:18:58,830 --> 00:19:01,350
Sometimes you gotta
play dirty to be the best!
349
00:19:01,350 --> 00:19:03,900
That's not what being
a Wonderbolt is all about.
350
00:19:03,900 --> 00:19:07,490
She's right! Wonderbolts
look after each other,
351
00:19:07,490 --> 00:19:10,450
which reminds me,
where is Spitfire?
352
00:19:10,450 --> 00:19:13,350
I sent her the letter pretending
to be Stormy Flare.
353
00:19:13,350 --> 00:19:15,240
I told her I had pegasitis,
354
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,380
and the only cure is the ice iris
in the Crystal Mountains.
355
00:19:18,380 --> 00:19:20,750
No wonder she's been gone so long.
356
00:19:20,750 --> 00:19:24,080
Ice irises are almost
impossible to find in spring!
357
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,460
The Crystal Mountains
are too far for anypony
358
00:19:26,460 --> 00:19:29,350
to make it there and back
before the royal garden opening!
359
00:19:29,350 --> 00:19:33,120
Rainbow Dash, we need you
to fly in Spitfire's place!
360
00:19:33,120 --> 00:19:35,690
But Spitfire shouldn't
have to miss this!
361
00:19:35,690 --> 00:19:36,880
I'm gonna get her!
362
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,840
But you'll never make it in time!
363
00:19:39,030 --> 00:19:41,730
Then there's no time to lose!
364
00:19:45,730 --> 00:19:47,720
Rainbow Dash is still gone!
365
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:48,650
Oh don't panic.
366
00:19:48,650 --> 00:19:51,650
If I know Rainbow Dash,
she'll come through.
367
00:19:56,490 --> 00:19:58,240
Spitfire, you're back!
368
00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:59,630
I can't believe you made it!
369
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,480
I wouldn't have, if Rainbow
hadn't found me so fast!
370
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,670
Gave me enough time to fly back!
371
00:20:05,890 --> 00:20:08,210
Rare, I couldn't have
done it without you.
372
00:20:08,210 --> 00:20:10,320
And I'm sorry I doubted you,
373
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,780
but why didn't you tell me
what you were doing?
374
00:20:12,780 --> 00:20:15,350
Well I didn't want to get
your hopes up until I was sure,
375
00:20:15,350 --> 00:20:18,050
and I couldn't be sure until
I saw that chocolate stain.
376
00:20:18,050 --> 00:20:22,050
Thank you for believing in me,
even when I was doubting you.
377
00:20:22,050 --> 00:20:23,970
I'm some friend, huh?
378
00:20:23,970 --> 00:20:25,930
Actually you're quite
a good friend.
379
00:20:25,930 --> 00:20:27,330
You went to get Spitfire,
380
00:20:27,370 --> 00:20:29,780
even though it meant
you couldn't fly today.
381
00:20:30,590 --> 00:20:32,500
I'll get my chance one day.
382
00:20:32,500 --> 00:20:36,990
Or today. How'd you like
Wind Rider's spot in the show?
383
00:20:37,460 --> 00:20:40,710
Uh, w-w-what? Y-you can't
do this to me!
384
00:20:40,710 --> 00:20:43,660
I'm one of the greatest
Wonderbolts there ever was!
385
00:20:43,660 --> 00:20:47,100
Not any more. For attempting
to frame Rainbow Dash,
386
00:20:47,100 --> 00:20:50,360
I hereby strip you of
your Wonderbolts status!
387
00:20:52,860 --> 00:20:55,710
So, would you like to fly with us?
388
00:20:55,710 --> 00:20:57,220
Would I?!
389
00:20:57,220 --> 00:20:58,810
Woohoo!
390
00:20:58,810 --> 00:21:02,380
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah,
uh, uh-huh, yeah, aww yeah...
391
00:21:02,380 --> 00:21:04,310
Uh, Rainbow Dash?
392
00:21:06,170 --> 00:21:07,670
Coming!
393
00:21:12,270 --> 00:21:14,670
So my friend got her moment
in the sun.
394
00:21:14,670 --> 00:21:17,720
Or the centre of an aerial flower,
as the case may be.
395
00:21:18,340 --> 00:21:19,490
And as for me?
396
00:21:19,490 --> 00:21:23,090
I got a chance to show off my
Femme Mystique Chic collection!
397
00:21:23,090 --> 00:21:25,090
That's nice, dear.
398
00:21:25,090 --> 00:21:27,230
Oh, did I say that out loud?
399
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,900
