1
00:00:03,220 --> 00:00:07,140
Okay, library. Library...

2
00:00:07,510 --> 00:00:09,430
Where did they put the library?

3
00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:17,650
This castle looked a lot
smaller from the outside.

4
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:22,780
Morning, Starlight!

5
00:00:22,780 --> 00:00:23,820
Whoops!

6
00:00:23,820 --> 00:00:25,280
Sorry, Spike!

7
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,870
I guess I'm still trying
to find my way around!

8
00:00:27,870 --> 00:00:30,660
You don't happen to know
where the library is, do you?

9
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,120
Next door on the left!

10
00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:35,960
Oh. Thanks!

11
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,710
Acceptance, mmhm.
Altruism, definitely.

12
00:00:39,710 --> 00:00:42,050
Starlight, good morning,
come in!

13
00:00:42,050 --> 00:00:44,800
Sorry I'm late.
I got a little turned around.

14
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:49,180
I still can't believe you're letting
me stay here, as your pupil...

15
00:00:49,180 --> 00:00:51,600
after everything I did.

16
00:00:51,930 --> 00:00:55,270
Well, I'm not one to dwell on the past,
and neither should you.

17
00:00:55,270 --> 00:00:59,150
The castle is your home now,
and as far as being my pupil goes,

18
00:00:59,150 --> 00:01:00,570
I was just trying to figure out

19
00:01:00,570 --> 00:01:02,530
what your first friendship
lesson should be!

20
00:01:02,530 --> 00:01:05,570
Oh, well, it looks like you're
really narrowing it down!

21
00:01:05,570 --> 00:01:07,030
Oh, these are just the A's.

22
00:01:07,030 --> 00:01:09,620
After this, I move
on to the B's!

23
00:01:53,630 --> 00:01:55,590
I know I'm just
learning about friendship,

24
00:01:55,590 --> 00:01:58,890
but I didn't think there were
this many lessons for anything.

25
00:01:58,890 --> 00:02:00,470
How do we choose?!

26
00:02:00,470 --> 00:02:03,510
Maybe I should pare things down a
bit before we go through them.

27
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,890
Why don't you join the
others in the throne room?

28
00:02:05,890 --> 00:02:07,890
They're planning our trip
to the Crystal Empire

29
00:02:07,890 --> 00:02:10,770
when Shining Armor and Princess
Cadance have their baby!

30
00:02:10,770 --> 00:02:12,440
Throne room, got it!

31
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,530
Um, which way's
the throne room?

32
00:02:19,570 --> 00:02:21,740
Well, I think we
should leave ASAP.

33
00:02:21,740 --> 00:02:23,410
I don't want to miss
the Crystalling!

34
00:02:23,410 --> 00:02:26,620
But, um, shouldn't we
wait for the invitation?

35
00:02:26,620 --> 00:02:29,210
Frankly I'm not exactly
clear on all the customs

36
00:02:29,210 --> 00:02:31,210
and traditions of
the Crystal Empire,

37
00:02:31,210 --> 00:02:33,500
especially when it
comes to a Crystallin'.

38
00:02:33,500 --> 00:02:34,960
What's a Crystalling?

39
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,300
Well, that's just it, darling!

40
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:40,640
Princess Cadance and Shining
Armor's baby is due any day,

41
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:42,430
and we're still not sure.

42
00:02:42,430 --> 00:02:45,770
The Crystal Empire was
gone for a thousand years;

43
00:02:45,770 --> 00:02:48,730
a lot of their customs are a bit murky.

44
00:02:48,730 --> 00:02:51,270
We know it's got somethin'
to do with the new baby.

45
00:02:51,270 --> 00:02:52,560
And a party!

46
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:53,820
And the Crystal Heart.

47
00:02:53,820 --> 00:02:54,980
And a party!

48
00:02:54,980 --> 00:02:57,490
And some kinda cool energy.

49
00:02:57,490 --> 00:03:01,110
And... a party!

50
00:03:02,370 --> 00:03:04,620
It's not hard to understand.

51
00:03:04,620 --> 00:03:07,040
Most things in the
Crystal Empire aren't!

52
00:03:07,830 --> 00:03:10,960
Like how I'm a big hero
there, for example!

53
00:03:16,300 --> 00:03:18,630
Eh... plus I've had
to help Twilight

54
00:03:18,630 --> 00:03:20,510
do a lot of research
on crystallings.

55
00:03:21,470 --> 00:03:23,970
Whenever a baby is born
in the Crystal Empire,

56
00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:26,430
the parents bring it before
the Crystal Heart.

57
00:03:26,430 --> 00:03:28,980
They get the purest shard
of crystal they can find,

58
00:03:28,980 --> 00:03:30,810
then pick a crystaller to present

59
00:03:30,810 --> 00:03:33,310
the baby to every pony who comes!

60
00:03:33,310 --> 00:03:36,320
Then they all share the
light and joy they feel,

61
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,780
feeding it into the crystal
that joins with the Heart,

62
00:03:38,780 --> 00:03:40,950
and increases its power!

63
00:03:41,450 --> 00:03:43,570
And this is going to
be a royal Crystalling,

64
00:03:43,570 --> 00:03:45,910
so pretty much the
whole empire will show up.

65
00:03:45,910 --> 00:03:48,330
That hasn't happened in millenia!

66
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,210
What do you mean it increases
the Crystal Heart's power?

67
00:03:52,210 --> 00:03:55,130
Energy it uses to protect
the Crystal Empire, I guess.

68
00:03:55,130 --> 00:03:56,920
Protect it from what?

69
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,760
I... didn't help Twilight
with that part.

70
00:04:07,260 --> 00:04:10,850
Hey Twilight, can I ask you something
about the Crystal Empire?

71
00:04:10,850 --> 00:04:13,100
Ooh, funny you
should mention it,

72
00:04:13,100 --> 00:04:14,600
because I just narrowed your first

73
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,520
friendship lesson down to three options,

74
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,610
and one of them is in
the Crystal Empire!

75
00:04:18,610 --> 00:04:20,030
Really?

76
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,610
I found out that's where the first
pony you ever cared about lives!

77
00:04:23,610 --> 00:04:24,950
Sunburst?

78
00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:26,990
Of course, that's just one idea.

79
00:04:26,990 --> 00:04:28,620
We could also go to Griffonstone,

80
00:04:28,620 --> 00:04:31,540
making friends with a griffon
is a challenge all by itself!

81
00:04:31,540 --> 00:04:36,630
Or we could tag along with a...

82
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,250
Starlight?

83
00:04:38,540 --> 00:04:39,840
Is something wrong?

84
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:43,510
What?
Oh, no, heh, those all sound great!

85
00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:47,510
I know! I guess you were right;
it is gonna be hard to choose one!

86
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,270
...Yeah.

87
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,160
Ugh, I am never gonna find
my way around this place!

88
00:05:07,410 --> 00:05:09,240
Gee Starlight, what's wrong?

89
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,700
I don't know, Spike...

90
00:05:10,700 --> 00:05:13,500
Twilight's figuring out what
my first friendship lesson is,

91
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:17,330
and I guess I'm not exactly
thrilled with the options.

92
00:05:17,330 --> 00:05:18,080
Well...

93
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,630
with one of them.

94
00:05:19,630 --> 00:05:20,920
Which one?

95
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,090
Reuniting me with my first friend.

96
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:26,720
What's so terrible about that?

97
00:05:30,890 --> 00:05:32,390
When we were foals,

98
00:05:32,390 --> 00:05:35,850
Sunburst knew everything there
was to know about magic.

99
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:47,910
He always knew just what to do.

100
00:05:55,660 --> 00:05:58,420
And he was always
there to help me.

101
00:06:08,380 --> 00:06:10,680
I guess it's not
surprising that Sunburst

102
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,640
got his cutie mark in magic, and...

103
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,350
went off to Princess Celestia's school.

104
00:06:15,350 --> 00:06:17,060
But when he left...

105
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,150
You blamed cutie marks,
stripped a whole village of theirs,

106
00:06:20,150 --> 00:06:21,440
and when Twilight and
the others stopped you

107
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,480
you went back in time and
almost destroyed Equestria.

108
00:06:24,980 --> 00:06:28,400
Not stuff I'm super-eager
to tell Sunburst about.

109
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,740
I mean, he's probably some big
important wizard now, and...

110
00:06:32,740 --> 00:06:36,080
I can't even find my
way around Twilight's castle.

111
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,790
Well, if Sunburst is
that good at magic,

112
00:06:38,790 --> 00:06:40,830
maybe he'd appreciate your, uh...

113
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,840
exploits.

114
00:06:43,210 --> 00:06:45,340
You should talk to Twilight about it.

115
00:06:45,340 --> 00:06:47,880
I'm sure she'd want to hear
what you have to say!

116
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,640
I know... but I don't want her to
think I'm not ready to learn,

117
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,600
or that I'm not grateful for
everything she's doing!

118
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,520
Spike! Come quick!

119
00:07:06,940 --> 00:07:08,950
It's a Crystalling invitation!

120
00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:10,700
Shining Armor's a father!

121
00:07:10,700 --> 00:07:12,780
I'm an aunt!

122
00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:14,530
Well, this settles it!

123
00:07:14,530 --> 00:07:16,450
Since we're going to
the Crystal Empire,

124
00:07:16,450 --> 00:07:19,120
your first friendship lesson
is going to be...

125
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,370
Reuniting with Sunburst!

126
00:07:22,290 --> 00:07:24,130
Great...

127
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,730
Um, Applejack, what is that?

128
00:07:44,730 --> 00:07:47,230
Oh, just a little somethin'
for the young'un.

129
00:07:48,190 --> 00:07:51,530
Made from genuine Sweet
Apple Acres apple trees.

130
00:07:51,530 --> 00:07:53,200
We make 'em for all the apples.

131
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,780
And anypony related to
Twilight is practically family.

132
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:02,620
Yeah, it's okay...
But it's no Cloudsdale mobile!

133
00:08:02,620 --> 00:08:04,000
BAM!

134
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,420
Ooh!

135
00:08:05,420 --> 00:08:06,500
Pretty!

136
00:08:08,250 --> 00:08:10,800
Well, a mobile is real nice...

137
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,340
as long as you have somethin'

138
00:08:12,340 --> 00:08:14,260
to lay in so you can look at it.

139
00:08:14,260 --> 00:08:17,810
And a fetching blanket
to keep you warm.

140
00:08:17,810 --> 00:08:21,730
I'm sure Shining Armor and Princess
Cadance will love all our gifts.

141
00:08:21,730 --> 00:08:23,100
But I think they're
more happy that

142
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:25,100
we'll be attending
the baby's Crystalling.

143
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:27,690
Ooh! I can't wait to see
all that light and love

144
00:08:27,690 --> 00:08:30,650
make the Crystal Heart even
more sparkly and shiny!

145
00:08:30,650 --> 00:08:34,780
Actually, Pinkie, the Crystal Heart is
an ancient and powerful relic.

146
00:08:34,780 --> 00:08:38,240
Without its magic, the Crystal Empire
would be lost to the Frozen North.

147
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,660
Wow, this Crystalling
sounds pretty important.

148
00:08:42,660 --> 00:08:44,790
I'd understand if you wanted to...

149
00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:46,040
you know...

150
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,090
wait to do a different friendship
lesson when we get back.

151
00:08:50,090 --> 00:08:52,590
Are you kidding?
This trip is perfect!

152
00:08:52,590 --> 00:08:55,300
Not only do I get to see
the baby and take part

153
00:08:55,300 --> 00:08:58,100
in the ceremony that helps maintain
the magic of the Crystal Empire,

154
00:08:58,100 --> 00:08:59,970
but I'm starting my new pupil off

155
00:08:59,970 --> 00:09:02,430
with the most amazing
friendship lesson ever!

156
00:09:02,430 --> 00:09:03,930
I can't wait!

157
00:09:04,980 --> 00:09:08,150
Right... Me neither...

158
00:09:11,030 --> 00:09:16,200
Actually, Twilight, I am a little
worried about meeting Sunburst.

159
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,530
Oh, trust me, I know what
it's like to see old friends.

160
00:09:19,530 --> 00:09:21,540
But I'll be right there
to help things along!

161
00:09:21,540 --> 00:09:24,290
I've broken the lesson down
into a few easy steps

162
00:09:24,290 --> 00:09:27,040
to ensure that this reunion
goes off without a hitch!

163
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,970
Step one, head
to Sunburst's house

164
00:09:36,970 --> 00:09:38,800
and get you two started
on the right hoof.

165
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,310
Step two, get to the castle
with enough time to visit the ba-

166
00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:44,890
Shining Armor!

167
00:09:44,890 --> 00:09:46,810
Twilight...!

168
00:09:46,810 --> 00:09:48,900
I didn't know you were meeting us!

169
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:51,770
Of course I am!
It's me, right here,

170
00:09:51,770 --> 00:09:52,610
here I am,

171
00:09:52,610 --> 00:09:54,780
why wouldn't I come
meet my sister,

172
00:09:54,780 --> 00:09:56,820
though we have met
before, heheh...

173
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:58,660
Are you alright?

174
00:09:58,660 --> 00:10:02,160
Never better! Being a father is
amazing! And wonderful,

175
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,450
and amazing, and confusing,
and amazing,

176
00:10:05,450 --> 00:10:07,620
but, surprising, too, you know?

177
00:10:07,620 --> 00:10:10,500
I mean, not that you'd know,
you wouldn't know, I know...

178
00:10:10,500 --> 00:10:11,920
you know?

179
00:10:13,090 --> 00:10:17,050
Sorry, I haven't really slept
since Cadance had the baby.

180
00:10:17,050 --> 00:10:20,050
Come to think of it,
she hasn't either.

181
00:10:20,050 --> 00:10:22,180
It sure would be
great to get a break.

182
00:10:22,180 --> 00:10:25,850
Oh, of course! I don't know
what I was thinking!

183
00:10:25,850 --> 00:10:28,020
You two probably need
all kinds of help!

184
00:10:28,020 --> 00:10:30,770
I'm sorry, Starlight,
but I guess combining

185
00:10:30,770 --> 00:10:33,860
your first lesson with this
visit wasn't such a good idea.

186
00:10:33,860 --> 00:10:36,360
Oh, uh, don't be ridiculous!

187
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,110
You're an aunt now!

188
00:10:38,110 --> 00:10:42,200
That's way more important
than some friendship lesson.

189
00:10:42,410 --> 00:10:44,870
I just wish there was
a way to do both.

190
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:50,290
Maybe there is! You've already
done the work for Starlight's

191
00:10:50,290 --> 00:10:53,920
lesson with this list,
all we have to do is follow it!

192
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,170
Spike, you're a genius!

193
00:10:56,340 --> 00:10:59,760
Yeah...  genius.

194
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,090
Then it's settled!
Shining Armor and I

195
00:11:02,090 --> 00:11:03,390
will head straight to the castle,

196
00:11:03,390 --> 00:11:05,720
and you two can head
straight to Sunburst's!

197
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,520
Aye aye, Princess!

198
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:09,230
Uh huh.

199
00:11:11,350 --> 00:11:16,030
Alright big brother, let's go
see this amazing baby pony!

200
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,280
I know you're a little
worried about this reunion,

201
00:11:24,370 --> 00:11:26,990
but I'm sure Twilight's
got everything covered!

202
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,660
Everything except
how I'd rather do

203
00:11:29,660 --> 00:11:31,290
absolutely anything else.

204
00:11:31,290 --> 00:11:33,790
Oh, I bet she's taken
that into account too!

205
00:11:33,790 --> 00:11:35,590
It's all part of the lesson!

206
00:11:35,590 --> 00:11:38,300
Trust the lesson!

207
00:11:38,300 --> 00:11:39,880
Right...

208
00:11:43,390 --> 00:11:45,050
Hey, is that...

209
00:11:45,050 --> 00:11:46,260
you?

210
00:11:46,260 --> 00:11:48,810
Oh, yep, it sure is!

211
00:11:48,810 --> 00:11:51,890
Now, according to the list,
Sunburst's house is-

212
00:11:51,890 --> 00:11:55,020
Why is there a statue of you
in the Crystal Empire?

213
00:11:55,020 --> 00:11:57,860
Because Spike the Brave
and Glorious saved

214
00:11:57,860 --> 00:11:59,900
all of us from King Sombra!

215
00:11:59,900 --> 00:12:02,450
And then again during
the Equestria Games!

216
00:12:02,450 --> 00:12:03,450
Really?

217
00:12:03,450 --> 00:12:05,700
Really!  Big fan.

218
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,200
Um, wh, when were you
going to tell me about this?

219
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,580
Eh, it's no big deal.

220
00:12:11,580 --> 00:12:14,500
It most certainly is!

221
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,170
That's it! We're not
going anywhere

222
00:12:18,170 --> 00:12:20,170
until I get the whole story!

223
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,890
Before we go in, I should
probably tell you.

224
00:12:28,890 --> 00:12:32,140
Seeing the baby might
be a bit of a shock.

225
00:12:32,140 --> 00:12:33,520
Come on, big brother.

226
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,190
I've met babies before.

227
00:12:35,190 --> 00:12:38,320
I expect meeting this one
won't be any different.

228
00:12:45,490 --> 00:12:48,240
Of course, I could be wrong.

229
00:12:55,500 --> 00:12:57,710
The baby is an Alicorn?!

230
00:12:57,710 --> 00:12:59,840
It looks that way.

231
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,920
But- But I thought Alicorn wings
had to be earned

232
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,470
by accomplishing some great,
princess-worthy deed!

233
00:13:06,470 --> 00:13:09,100
Yeah, how can you just
be born with 'em?

234
00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:13,180
The birth of an Alicorn is something
Equestria has never seen!

235
00:13:13,180 --> 00:13:15,770
It is beyond even
our understanding.

236
00:13:15,770 --> 00:13:17,980
That's not very reassuring.

237
00:13:17,980 --> 00:13:20,400
Wow! A unicorn, and a Pegasus!

238
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,440
So she could be
a super-strong flyer

239
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,860
and have crazy baby magic!

240
00:13:24,860 --> 00:13:28,030
Well, I know all about
super-strong flying!

241
00:13:28,030 --> 00:13:30,910
And I can help keep
tabs on her magic!

242
00:13:43,210 --> 00:13:45,800
It appears her magic
is more powerful

243
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,680
than that of a newborn unicorn!

244
00:13:47,680 --> 00:13:49,760
The crowds have already
started to gather.

245
00:13:52,140 --> 00:13:54,980
This Crystalling is gonna
be some party!

246
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,980
Do you think we should call it off?

247
00:13:58,980 --> 00:14:03,190
Um, we've all faced a lot
worse than baby magic.

248
00:14:03,190 --> 00:14:05,320
I can't imagine cancelling
such a beautiful

249
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,410
and important ceremony over
something so potentially adorable!

250
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,410
In light of the little
one's abilities,

251
00:14:14,410 --> 00:14:17,460
this Crystalling might be
more important than ever.

252
00:14:17,460 --> 00:14:19,500
Perhaps you should
address your subjects,

253
00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:21,040
and remind them of that.

254
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,550
Shining Armor! Do you
have everything

255
00:14:31,550 --> 00:14:33,430
you need for the ceremony?

256
00:14:33,430 --> 00:14:37,770
Huh? Oh no! I still need to
interview the honor guards,

257
00:14:37,770 --> 00:14:40,850
choose the purity crystal,
and pick a crystaller!

258
00:14:42,060 --> 00:14:43,980
Alright, take it easy.

259
00:14:43,980 --> 00:14:46,610
Pinkie can stay here with me and
keep an eye on the baby!

260
00:14:48,490 --> 00:14:51,820
And we'll all help you
with everythin' else.

261
00:14:53,830 --> 00:14:55,450
...baby...

262
00:14:55,450 --> 00:14:58,910
That is if you can stay awake
long enough to tell us how.

263
00:14:59,790 --> 00:15:01,750
...and that's how we
found the Crystal Heart,

264
00:15:01,750 --> 00:15:04,630
defeated King Sombra,
and saved the Empire.

265
00:15:07,630 --> 00:15:10,510
Tell the one about
the Equestria Games!

266
00:15:10,510 --> 00:15:14,300
Well, as much as I love
reliving my heroic deeds,

267
00:15:14,300 --> 00:15:16,520
Starlight and I have an
important lesson to deal with,

268
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,850
by order of the Princess
of Friendship!

269
00:15:18,850 --> 00:15:20,390
Awwww!

270
00:15:20,390 --> 00:15:24,690
Aw, come on, Spike! I want to
hear about the Games too!

271
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,480
I know you're nervous
about seeing Sunburst,

272
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,700
but it says right in step 3,
to, uh,

273
00:15:29,700 --> 00:15:31,910
deal with your fears
by facing them'!

274
00:15:31,910 --> 00:15:33,410
Not by putting them off.

275
00:15:34,450 --> 00:15:37,700
Ugh, let's go get this over with.

276
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,130
Wait!

277
00:15:45,130 --> 00:15:45,960
What?

278
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,550
Knocking on the door isn't
the next thing on the list!

279
00:15:48,550 --> 00:15:49,840
Seriously?

280
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,970
I know Twilight can be
a little nitpicky,

281
00:15:51,970 --> 00:15:53,840
but this is your first
lesson as her pupil,

282
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,390
and it's important
that we do it right!

283
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,890
Fine. What's the next
thing on the list?

284
00:16:00,890 --> 00:16:02,900
Before they see each other,

285
00:16:02,900 --> 00:16:05,690
be sure to highlight the
importance of the meeting.

286
00:16:05,690 --> 00:16:08,360
I'm pretty sure we can skip that.

287
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,740
I don't know... I mean
if we skip it,

288
00:16:10,740 --> 00:16:12,150
the whole lesson could go south!

289
00:16:12,150 --> 00:16:13,740
And then you might end up
taking a giant step

290
00:16:13,740 --> 00:16:15,410
backwards instead of forwards!

291
00:16:15,410 --> 00:16:16,700
Maybe you'll never
be able to learn

292
00:16:16,700 --> 00:16:18,410
anything about friendship at all!

293
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,170
It's almost like your whole
future depends on this moment.

294
00:16:23,710 --> 00:16:26,250
Alright, the importance of
the meeting, check!

295
00:16:26,250 --> 00:16:29,300
I can't believe you wanted
to skip that!

296
00:16:42,020 --> 00:16:43,690
...Sunburst?

297
00:16:43,690 --> 00:16:46,060
Yes? What can I do for you?

298
00:16:46,060 --> 00:16:49,570
It's... it's me, Starlight.

299
00:16:49,570 --> 00:16:53,150
We used to be friends?

300
00:16:53,530 --> 00:16:56,280
Oh, of course! S-Starlight!

301
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,280
My goodness,  it's, been a long time!

302
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,040
What, uh, what have you been up to?

303
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:08,500
Me? Oh, you know, some of this,
some of that, different...

304
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:10,300
stuff.

305
00:17:10,300 --> 00:17:13,590
Right now, I'm sort of
Twilight Sparkle's new pupil.

306
00:17:13,590 --> 00:17:15,930
The Princess of Friendship?

307
00:17:15,930 --> 00:17:20,470
Heh... yeah... that's actually
kind of why I'm here.

308
00:17:20,470 --> 00:17:23,640
I mean, I know you're
probably very busy...

309
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,100
What do you mean?

310
00:17:25,100 --> 00:17:27,310
Well, I figured
after magic school

311
00:17:27,310 --> 00:17:30,190
you'd go on to do
important wizard work, but...

312
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:35,610
Oh. No. Y-yes! Uhm, uh, yes, that's
me, yup, aheh, important wizard!

313
00:17:35,610 --> 00:17:39,830
Really busy with lots of,
uh, wi-wizarding stuff.

314
00:17:41,290 --> 00:17:41,910
Right.

315
00:17:41,910 --> 00:17:45,080
Uh, well, good to see you.

316
00:17:46,210 --> 00:17:48,880
Huh, maybe we should
have skipped highlighting

317
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,960
the importance of
the meeting after all.

318
00:17:51,250 --> 00:17:53,170
Well, I guess that's that!

319
00:17:53,170 --> 00:17:55,670
Starlight, come on! We have to

320
00:17:55,670 --> 00:17:57,930
at least explain
what Twilight wants!

321
00:18:06,770 --> 00:18:11,440
Dearest citizens, I am sure
you are just as thrilled

322
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,780
and ready for this Crystalling
as myself and Shining Armor.

323
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:23,700
I'm not ready!

324
00:18:23,700 --> 00:18:25,950
Take it easy!
Just pick whoever looks

325
00:18:25,950 --> 00:18:28,250
the most like
honor guard material!

326
00:18:28,250 --> 00:18:30,170
Right... right.

327
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,590
I'm sorry... Fatherhood is way more
stressful than I'd ever thought.

328
00:18:38,590 --> 00:18:40,680
I can only imagine.

329
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,760
Well, I know choosing the crystal

330
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,350
of purity is
a very important decision,

331
00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:48,100
so I have gone through
the trouble of arranging them

332
00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:52,110
in order from incredibly pure
to outrageously pure.

333
00:18:52,110 --> 00:18:55,900
Um, Rarity, don't they all
sort of look the same?

334
00:18:55,900 --> 00:18:58,780
Oh, well, to the untrained eye
perhaps,

335
00:18:58,900 --> 00:19:01,530
what do you think, Shining Armor?

336
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,370
I don't know!

337
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,750
I hope Twilight and Pinkie Pie

338
00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:10,000
are having more luck
with the baby!

339
00:19:11,120 --> 00:19:13,750
Well... at least she's having...

340
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,210
fun!

341
00:19:22,470 --> 00:19:24,300
Pinkie, hold her still!

342
00:19:24,300 --> 00:19:27,600
I'm tryiiiiiiing!

343
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:39,610
So... the Princess of Friendship
wants you

344
00:19:39,610 --> 00:19:41,360
and I to be friends again?

345
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:45,330
Heh, I know, weird, right?

346
00:19:45,740 --> 00:19:48,500
I don't understand.
Did something happen

347
00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:50,460
to you after I left for magic school?

348
00:19:50,460 --> 00:19:51,040
What?

349
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,130
No! I, I don't see what that
has to do with anything,

350
00:19:54,130 --> 00:19:56,420
w, why would you even ask that?

351
00:19:58,340 --> 00:20:03,470
I mean, did something happen to you
after you left for magic school?

352
00:20:03,470 --> 00:20:10,770
What? Um, no. Uh, like you said,
I'm a,  i-important wizard.

353
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,860
I'm sure there's something
on Twilight's list that can help here...

354
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,530
Okay. I chose the honor guard,

355
00:20:26,530 --> 00:20:27,620
picked the purity crystal

356
00:20:27,620 --> 00:20:30,620
and I know exactly who I want
to be our crystaller.

357
00:20:30,620 --> 00:20:32,710
So, all we need is...

358
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,500
The baby?

359
00:20:36,250 --> 00:20:37,750
We're here!

360
00:20:38,250 --> 00:20:41,510
She's a really strong flyer!

361
00:21:12,250 --> 00:21:15,830
I'm guessin' that's gonna make
it harder to do the Crystallin'...

362
00:21:15,830 --> 00:21:17,330
It's worse than that.

363
00:21:17,330 --> 00:21:18,460
Without the Heart,

364
00:21:18,460 --> 00:21:20,460
the Crystal Empire's about to be buried

365
00:21:20,460 --> 00:21:22,880
under a mountain of ice and snow!
