1
00:00:10,302 --> 00:00:11,721
[hack and spit]
2
00:00:11,763 --> 00:00:14,181
[rustling wind]
3
00:00:14,223 --> 00:00:15,223
[crash]
4
00:00:19,645 --> 00:00:21,105
Hey, Applejack.
Whatchya doin'?
5
00:00:21,146 --> 00:00:22,146
[grunt]
6
00:00:23,190 --> 00:00:26,569
Well, I was practicin'
my distance buckin'.
7
00:00:26,611 --> 00:00:30,364
Distance bucking? What for?
8
00:00:30,406 --> 00:00:33,451
Because Cousin Braeburn and
the rest of the Apple Family
9
00:00:33,492 --> 00:00:35,327
in Appleoosa seem to think
10
00:00:35,369 --> 00:00:38,748
that their team can beat
Ponyville at Buckball.
11
00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:40,416
[crash]
12
00:00:40,458 --> 00:00:42,543
[whoosh...thunk]
13
00:00:42,585 --> 00:00:47,214
WHAT? Ha! That's ridiculous!
Nopony beats Ponyville!
14
00:00:47,256 --> 00:00:50,217
I mean, I could beat the whole
town of Appleoosa at Buckball
15
00:00:50,259 --> 00:00:52,595
with one wing tied
behind my back.
16
00:00:52,637 --> 00:00:58,726
[crashes and grunts]
17
00:00:58,768 --> 00:01:00,269
[crash]
18
00:01:00,311 --> 00:01:02,939
So I can count on you to join
the Ponyville Buckball team?
19
00:01:02,981 --> 00:01:07,109
Oh, yeah! I am so there.
I've just got one question.
20
00:01:07,151 --> 00:01:08,653
Mm?
21
00:01:08,694 --> 00:01:11,322
Uh, what's Buckball?
22
00:01:11,363 --> 00:01:12,698
[groan]
23
00:01:16,619 --> 00:01:20,039
* My little pony *
* my little pony *
24
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,958
* Aaaahhh *
25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,043
* My little Pony *
26
00:01:24,084 --> 00:01:26,504
* I used to wonder what
friendship could be *
27
00:01:26,545 --> 00:01:28,380
* My Little Pony *
28
00:01:28,422 --> 00:01:30,925
* Until you all shared
its magic with me *
29
00:01:30,967 --> 00:01:32,969
* Big adventure! *
* Tons of fun *
30
00:01:33,011 --> 00:01:35,137
* A beautiful heart! *
* Faithful and strong! *
31
00:01:35,179 --> 00:01:37,348
* Sharing kindness *
* it's an easy feat *
32
00:01:37,389 --> 00:01:39,350
* And magic makes it
all complete! *
33
00:01:39,391 --> 00:01:41,477
* To have my little pony *
34
00:01:41,519 --> 00:01:44,897
* Do you know you're all
my very best friends? *
35
00:01:52,446 --> 00:01:56,826
So basically, Buckball
is the coolest game ever.
36
00:01:56,868 --> 00:02:00,705
Offense! Defense!
Teamwork. Non-stop action.
37
00:02:00,746 --> 00:02:02,707
It's got it all!
38
00:02:02,748 --> 00:02:05,417
Wow, Rainbow Dash. You
sure seem to know a lot
39
00:02:05,459 --> 00:02:10,089
about this game. I've never
even heard of Buckball.
40
00:02:10,130 --> 00:02:12,383
Yeah. I'm kind of an expert.
41
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:14,677
Hah, an expert who hadn't
heard of the game either
42
00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:16,012
until I told you.
43
00:02:16,054 --> 00:02:17,722
Well, it's a
new game.
44
00:02:17,763 --> 00:02:19,640
I probably know more
than most ponies
45
00:02:19,682 --> 00:02:21,851
so that makes me
an expert.
46
00:02:21,893 --> 00:02:24,103
I don't know anything
about it at all.
47
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:26,064
But it sounds like there's
a ball and bucking,
48
00:02:26,105 --> 00:02:28,733
so I'm betting it's
super-duper fun.
49
00:02:28,774 --> 00:02:30,651
The point is my
cousin Braeburn
50
00:02:30,693 --> 00:02:32,319
somehow convinced
a Pegasus
51
00:02:32,361 --> 00:02:34,030
and a unicorn to
come play
52
00:02:34,072 --> 00:02:35,907
with him on the
Appleoosa team.
53
00:02:35,948 --> 00:02:38,200
And he can't stop bragging
about how his team
54
00:02:38,242 --> 00:02:40,244
is gonna beat ours.
55
00:02:40,285 --> 00:02:42,204
But, um, we don't
have a team.
56
00:02:42,246 --> 00:02:44,916
Well, between Applejack and me,
57
00:02:44,957 --> 00:02:46,500
we've got two
thirds of a team.
58
00:02:46,542 --> 00:02:48,086
All we need is
a unicorn.
59
00:02:48,127 --> 00:02:50,254
That's where you
two come in.
60
00:02:50,295 --> 00:02:55,426
Uh, they know we're
not unicorns, right?
61
00:02:55,467 --> 00:02:59,972
Uh, obviously. You're
gonna be on my team
62
00:03:00,014 --> 00:03:02,892
and Fluttershy is gonna
be on Applejack's team.
63
00:03:02,934 --> 00:03:05,728
We'll play against each other,
along with whatever unicorns
64
00:03:05,770 --> 00:03:08,313
wanna try out until
we find the best one.
65
00:03:08,355 --> 00:03:11,984
Oooohhhhhh! Phew,
that's a relief
66
00:03:12,026 --> 00:03:14,486
because I left my
unicorn costume at home.
67
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,786
I know a lot of you are
here because I told you
68
00:03:21,827 --> 00:03:24,329
what an amazing
game Buckball is.
69
00:03:24,371 --> 00:03:27,374
And even though it's already
an Apple Family favorite,
70
00:03:27,416 --> 00:03:30,044
most of you probably don't
know anything about it.
71
00:03:30,086 --> 00:03:32,296
So I thought we'd give
you a quick demonstration.
72
00:03:34,632 --> 00:03:36,968
The two earth ponies
are on offense.
73
00:03:37,009 --> 00:03:39,845
They meet in the middle of
the field for the buck off.
74
00:03:39,887 --> 00:03:42,932
They both try to be the
first one to kick it.
75
00:03:42,974 --> 00:03:44,266
[grunt]
76
00:03:46,602 --> 00:03:49,021
And the Pegasus is on defense.
77
00:03:49,063 --> 00:03:51,482
She tries to keep the ball
from going in the goal
78
00:03:51,523 --> 00:03:54,485
and passes it back to the
earth pony on her team.
79
00:03:54,526 --> 00:03:56,278
Just give it a
little kick, Pinkie.
80
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,156
[squeal]
81
00:03:58,197 --> 00:03:59,183
[whimper]
82
00:03:59,198 --> 00:04:00,324
[thunk]
83
00:04:00,365 --> 00:04:03,368
Oooh! I get it!
84
00:04:03,410 --> 00:04:06,288
And all the unicorns have to
do is float these here baskets
85
00:04:06,330 --> 00:04:08,040
around the outside
of the field
86
00:04:08,082 --> 00:04:11,210
and catch as many balls as
possible for their team.
87
00:04:11,251 --> 00:04:12,503
You two get
the idea?
88
00:04:12,544 --> 00:04:14,546
Absolutely!
89
00:04:14,588 --> 00:04:18,592
Oh, I don't know. That
ball moves pretty fast.
90
00:04:18,634 --> 00:04:22,387
All right. Now let's see which
of you has what it takes.
91
00:04:28,936 --> 00:04:32,190
Um...what do I do?
92
00:04:32,231 --> 00:04:35,193
When the ball comes
towards you... catch it.
93
00:04:38,570 --> 00:04:40,447
[whistle tweets]
94
00:04:40,489 --> 00:04:42,700
OK, just try your best, Pinkie.
95
00:04:42,741 --> 00:04:44,994
I have been doing this
a lot longer than you.
96
00:04:45,036 --> 00:04:46,620
HA-uhh.
97
00:04:46,662 --> 00:04:47,648
Nice kick.
98
00:04:49,915 --> 00:04:53,961
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whee! Haha!
99
00:04:54,003 --> 00:04:55,295
Great save, Fluttershy!
100
00:04:58,507 --> 00:05:00,009
Coming your way, Pinkie!
101
00:05:00,051 --> 00:05:02,053
Somersault, kick!
102
00:05:02,094 --> 00:05:03,221
[whoosh]
103
00:05:03,262 --> 00:05:04,555
[panicked shout]
104
00:05:07,725 --> 00:05:10,228
Hey, this game is easy!
105
00:05:10,269 --> 00:05:13,605
Oh, it actually is
kind of fun.
106
00:05:13,647 --> 00:05:17,276
Where did Pinkie Pie
learn to buck like that?
107
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:21,363
And Fluttershy's spinning
tail catch is pretty amazing!
108
00:05:21,405 --> 00:05:25,617
Um... OK, well let's see
what the rest of you can do.
109
00:05:28,620 --> 00:05:31,290
Now, don't expect to be able
to beat me twice in a row.
110
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:37,713
Well, hello there
Mr. Ball. Whee!
111
00:05:37,755 --> 00:05:38,923
Hiyah!
112
00:05:41,217 --> 00:05:42,509
Hurry along, butterflies,
113
00:05:42,551 --> 00:05:44,136
before that ball
comes and hits you.
114
00:05:46,972 --> 00:05:52,103
Nope. Um. OK, let's see
what the rest of you can do.
115
00:05:54,146 --> 00:05:55,146
Nope.
116
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:57,440
Definitely, not.
117
00:05:59,944 --> 00:06:01,070
Noooo.
118
00:06:02,446 --> 00:06:03,488
Not a chance.
119
00:06:04,448 --> 00:06:05,449
No.
120
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:07,409
Nope.
121
00:06:07,451 --> 00:06:13,624
And...no. Uh, this didn't
go how I thought it would.
122
00:06:13,665 --> 00:06:17,962
[happy squeals]
123
00:06:18,003 --> 00:06:19,630
It sure didn't.
124
00:06:19,671 --> 00:06:21,423
This game is a
whole lot more fun
125
00:06:21,465 --> 00:06:22,883
than I thought
it would be.
126
00:06:22,925 --> 00:06:25,219
It's exactly as much fun
as I thought it would be...
127
00:06:25,261 --> 00:06:27,346
A WHOLE BUNCH!
128
00:06:27,387 --> 00:06:31,267
Carrying my water,
my water, my water.
129
00:06:31,309 --> 00:06:35,062
Carrying my water
on my shoulder pole.
130
00:06:35,104 --> 00:06:37,315
SNAILS, LOOK OUT!
131
00:06:42,736 --> 00:06:44,613
Amazing!
132
00:06:44,655 --> 00:06:46,698
You should be more
careful with these.
133
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:48,242
You could lose them.
134
00:06:50,786 --> 00:06:55,833
Hey, Snails? Can you float one
of those baskets over here?
135
00:06:55,874 --> 00:06:57,084
Sure.
136
00:06:57,126 --> 00:06:58,961
What do you want
me to do with it?
137
00:06:59,003 --> 00:07:00,420
CATCH!
138
00:07:04,258 --> 00:07:05,258
Anything else?
139
00:07:07,345 --> 00:07:10,889
Wow, Snails, you're a
natural at Buckball.
140
00:07:10,931 --> 00:07:13,934
It's a good thing, too. We
were running out of unicorns.
141
00:07:13,976 --> 00:07:16,187
Do you think you'll be
ready to play with Applejack
142
00:07:16,228 --> 00:07:18,522
and Rainbow Dash against
the Appleoosa team?
143
00:07:18,563 --> 00:07:21,859
I guess I'll find out. Plus,
after I deliver this water,
144
00:07:21,900 --> 00:07:24,028
I don't really have
anything else to do.
145
00:07:24,069 --> 00:07:26,613
Well, Snails, with
you on the team,
146
00:07:26,655 --> 00:07:31,493
Ponyville is one step closer
to crushing Appleoosa.
147
00:07:31,535 --> 00:07:33,578
And after today,
it's pretty clear
148
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:36,498
who the other two
players should be.
149
00:07:36,540 --> 00:07:38,083
What do you mean?
150
00:07:38,125 --> 00:07:40,252
I thought you and Dash
were going to play.
151
00:07:40,294 --> 00:07:44,215
Yeah. If you're not
crushing Appleoosa, who is?
152
00:07:44,256 --> 00:07:46,091
[laughs]
153
00:07:46,133 --> 00:07:48,802
Uh you two, obviously.
154
00:07:57,311 --> 00:08:00,064
Um, you want us to
play Buckball
155
00:08:00,105 --> 00:08:02,649
against Appleoosa
instead of you?
156
00:08:02,691 --> 00:08:04,276
Mm hm.
157
00:08:04,318 --> 00:08:06,028
That's un-credible.
158
00:08:08,364 --> 00:08:12,617
Unbelievable and
incredible? Come on.
159
00:08:12,659 --> 00:08:15,120
I can't explain it, but
you two are really good
160
00:08:15,162 --> 00:08:17,831
at this game and if it
means beating Appleoosa,
161
00:08:17,873 --> 00:08:20,334
I'll give either one of
you my spot on the team
162
00:08:20,376 --> 00:08:22,544
quicker than Granny
Smith can core an apple.
163
00:08:22,586 --> 00:08:26,090
Me too. I'd normally be so
pumped all of Ponyville
164
00:08:26,131 --> 00:08:27,716
was counting on me to win,
165
00:08:27,758 --> 00:08:29,593
I'd run right over
the competition,
166
00:08:29,634 --> 00:08:32,263
but you still flew
rings around me.
167
00:08:32,304 --> 00:08:35,349
Oh, I'm sorry. I
was just having fun.
168
00:08:35,391 --> 00:08:38,185
Well, you can have all the
fun you want as long as it's
169
00:08:38,227 --> 00:08:41,146
while you're beatin' the
hide off of Braeburn's team.
170
00:08:41,188 --> 00:08:43,607
I do like fun.
171
00:08:43,648 --> 00:08:46,360
Honestly, the game was
a little scary at first,
172
00:08:46,402 --> 00:08:49,738
but once I got the hang of
it, I had a pretty good time.
173
00:08:49,780 --> 00:08:53,117
Let's get this
party started!
174
00:08:53,158 --> 00:08:56,454
All right, but if we really
wanna beat Appleoosa,
175
00:08:56,495 --> 00:08:58,914
we're gonna have
to get serious.
176
00:08:58,956 --> 00:09:00,582
Serious?
177
00:09:00,624 --> 00:09:03,502
Serious how?
178
00:09:05,003 --> 00:09:08,590
With serious practice!
179
00:09:08,632 --> 00:09:12,803
Wow. This looks
pretty intense.
180
00:09:12,844 --> 00:09:15,764
Well, duh. You two are
gonna be representing
181
00:09:15,806 --> 00:09:19,893
all of Ponyville, and
more importantly...Us!
182
00:09:19,935 --> 00:09:22,729
That's why before we leave
for Appleoosa tomorrow,
183
00:09:22,771 --> 00:09:25,899
you two are gonna practice
just as hard as we would.
184
00:09:25,941 --> 00:09:27,651
So, let's hop to it.
185
00:09:27,692 --> 00:09:29,987
Snails already has
a head start on you!
186
00:09:36,994 --> 00:09:39,037
OK. If you wanna win,
187
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:41,123
you've totally gotta
get this drill down.
188
00:09:41,165 --> 00:09:42,416
I-I-I do?
189
00:09:45,127 --> 00:09:46,670
* [heavy electric guitar] *
190
00:09:46,711 --> 00:09:47,531
[gasp]
191
00:09:50,090 --> 00:09:51,076
[gasp]
192
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:55,580
[gasp]
193
00:10:02,186 --> 00:10:03,854
It's all about ball control.
194
00:10:06,064 --> 00:10:08,108
Ready? GO!
195
00:10:10,777 --> 00:10:13,697
Come on! Faster! You don't
want Ponyville to lose
196
00:10:13,738 --> 00:10:15,949
because you can't get
into high gear, do you?
197
00:10:15,991 --> 00:10:16,991
Whoaaa.
198
00:10:23,332 --> 00:10:26,293
All right, being able to
buck a ball into a goal
199
00:10:26,335 --> 00:10:30,130
from any direction is the most
important thing in the game.
200
00:10:30,172 --> 00:10:31,507
If you say so.
201
00:10:35,969 --> 00:10:39,598
WHEEE! WOOO!
202
00:10:51,735 --> 00:10:55,113
Keep it up! Just one miss'll
ruin the Apple Family's
203
00:10:55,155 --> 00:10:57,616
Buckball reputation forever.
204
00:10:57,657 --> 00:10:59,034
WHOA...What?
205
00:11:05,874 --> 00:11:07,042
Whoops.
206
00:11:08,586 --> 00:11:10,795
Come on! Push. Push! PUSH!
207
00:11:10,837 --> 00:11:11,823
[clang]
208
00:11:11,838 --> 00:11:13,131
[chirping birds]
209
00:11:13,173 --> 00:11:15,884
Come on now! Every shot
is for Sweet Apple Acres.
210
00:11:15,926 --> 00:11:18,387
And me! And Dash!
And all of Ponyville!
211
00:11:18,429 --> 00:11:21,473
Whoa. Ow.
212
00:11:21,515 --> 00:11:22,558
Faster!
213
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,184
Whoa.
214
00:11:24,226 --> 00:11:25,394
C'mon, now!
215
00:11:25,436 --> 00:11:26,562
Whooaaa!
216
00:11:27,896 --> 00:11:28,798
C'mon!
217
00:11:28,813 --> 00:11:30,732
[scream]
218
00:11:30,774 --> 00:11:31,775
Keep it up!
219
00:11:31,816 --> 00:11:33,693
Whooaaa!
220
00:11:33,735 --> 00:11:34,735
C'MON!
221
00:11:39,783 --> 00:11:40,783
[music ends]
222
00:11:43,537 --> 00:11:46,206
What in the apple
happened to those two?
223
00:11:46,248 --> 00:11:49,376
I don't know! They mopped
the field with us before.
224
00:11:49,418 --> 00:11:51,629
[grunt]
225
00:11:51,670 --> 00:11:53,755
All right! That's
it for today, y'all!
226
00:11:53,797 --> 00:11:55,757
[phew!]
227
00:11:55,799 --> 00:11:59,303
I thought practice was
supposed to make us better.
228
00:11:59,344 --> 00:12:01,846
Maybe we just need
a little rest.
229
00:12:01,888 --> 00:12:04,683
Or a whole lot of it.
230
00:12:04,724 --> 00:12:07,769
Just be sure to get your heads
in the game before tomorrow.
231
00:12:07,811 --> 00:12:09,938
All of Ponyville is
counting on a win.
232
00:12:17,946 --> 00:12:19,657
I really don't want to let
233
00:12:19,698 --> 00:12:22,784
Applejack and Rainbow Dash
down, or anypony else,
234
00:12:22,826 --> 00:12:27,372
but after that practice, I'm
not feeling very confident.
235
00:12:27,414 --> 00:12:29,333
Maybe we weren't that bad.
236
00:12:29,374 --> 00:12:30,792
[groan]
237
00:12:30,834 --> 00:12:34,796
I guess I was hoping you
saw something I didn't.
238
00:12:34,838 --> 00:12:36,715
I know our friends
want us to win,
239
00:12:36,756 --> 00:12:38,800
but how can the whole
town be counting on us
240
00:12:38,842 --> 00:12:41,595
if most ponies have never
even heard of Buckball?
241
00:12:41,637 --> 00:12:43,805
I know! How can we
disappoint a pony
242
00:12:43,847 --> 00:12:46,350
who doesn't even
know we have a team?
243
00:12:46,391 --> 00:12:48,810
Or that we're going
to play Appleoosa.
244
00:12:48,852 --> 00:12:51,480
Yeah, I don't think
we need to worry.
245
00:12:51,522 --> 00:12:53,273
I'd be surprised
if anypony in this town
246
00:12:53,315 --> 00:12:54,858
cares about this game at all.
247
00:12:57,861 --> 00:13:04,284
Go Ponyville! Go
Ponyville! WIN! WIN! WIN!
248
00:13:04,326 --> 00:13:06,704
Ponyville, Ponyville!
Way to go! You can do it!
249
00:13:06,745 --> 00:13:09,498
Whoa. The whole
town really seems
250
00:13:09,540 --> 00:13:11,833
to care about
this game a lot.
251
00:13:11,875 --> 00:13:13,502
[gasps]
252
00:13:18,716 --> 00:13:23,803
[cheering] Woo-hoo,
go Ponyville!
253
00:13:31,853 --> 00:13:34,732
We kinda went around town and
talked up the team a little.
254
00:13:34,773 --> 00:13:36,775
Yep. We wanted to
make sure you two knew
255
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:39,695
that all of Ponyville
was behind you.
256
00:13:39,737 --> 00:13:42,698
Greaaaaat.
257
00:13:42,740 --> 00:13:44,824
I hear the whole town's
already planning a parade
258
00:13:44,866 --> 00:13:46,951
for when you get back
after whoopin' Appleoosa.
259
00:13:46,993 --> 00:13:48,870
That should feel pretty good.
260
00:13:48,912 --> 00:13:50,830
It should?
261
00:13:50,872 --> 00:13:53,833
Totally! Just spend the
whole ride to Appleoosa
262
00:13:53,875 --> 00:13:55,835
thinking about
everypony cheering
263
00:13:55,877 --> 00:13:58,880
for the victorious
Ponyville Buckball Team.
264
00:13:58,922 --> 00:14:02,342
I bet Princess Celestia even
comes to congratulate you.
265
00:14:02,384 --> 00:14:05,804
If that doesn't get you in the
zone, I don't know what will.
266
00:14:08,766 --> 00:14:11,893
I don't know what zone Rainbow
Dash is talking about,
267
00:14:11,935 --> 00:14:14,772
but I'm pretty sure I don't
want to be in it. Do you?
268
00:14:18,942 --> 00:14:23,655
Hey, you two are supposed
to be in the zone.
269
00:14:23,697 --> 00:14:27,534
You see... The thing is...
Thinking about everpony...
270
00:14:27,576 --> 00:14:31,871
thinking about us...
there's just no way...
271
00:14:31,913 --> 00:14:33,915
THERE'S NO WAY THAT
WE CAN GET IN THE ZONE
272
00:14:33,957 --> 00:14:36,000
BECAUSE THE ZONE SOUNDS
LIKE A HORRIBLE PLACE
273
00:14:36,042 --> 00:14:37,919
SINCE WE ARE
TERRIBLE AT BUCKBALL
274
00:14:37,961 --> 00:14:40,922
AND WE ARE GOING TO LOSE
AND LET EVERYPONY DOWN
275
00:14:40,964 --> 00:14:43,759
AND WE DON'T WANT
TO PLAY ANYMORE!
276
00:14:43,801 --> 00:14:46,637
[blubbering]
277
00:14:48,930 --> 00:14:50,890
I'm still OK with playing,
in case you were worried.
278
00:14:53,977 --> 00:14:56,938
I don't get it.
They're naturals.
279
00:14:56,980 --> 00:14:58,982
Why wouldn't they
want to play anymore?
280
00:14:59,023 --> 00:15:01,943
Maybe us telling them how much
everypony was counting on them
281
00:15:01,985 --> 00:15:03,903
messed them up somehow.
282
00:15:03,945 --> 00:15:06,448
What? That's crazy talk.
283
00:15:06,490 --> 00:15:08,950
Having ponies depend on you
is exactly what you need
284
00:15:08,992 --> 00:15:10,494
to focus and...
285
00:15:10,535 --> 00:15:11,953
Get serious and play hard and...
286
00:15:11,995 --> 00:15:15,957
Get ready to totally smash
the competition and...
287
00:15:15,999 --> 00:15:20,962
And none of that sounds like
Pinkie or Fluttershy, does it?
288
00:15:21,004 --> 00:15:23,965
[sigh] Guess not.
289
00:15:24,007 --> 00:15:26,926
We got so wrapped up in
what's important to us,
290
00:15:26,968 --> 00:15:29,929
we went and ruined what was
fun about the game for them.
291
00:15:29,971 --> 00:15:31,055
[grunt]
292
00:15:31,097 --> 00:15:32,850
What do we do now?
293
00:15:36,019 --> 00:15:37,979
[loud knocking]
294
00:15:39,147 --> 00:15:41,859
Pinkie? Fluttershy?
295
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:43,443
We know you're in here.
296
00:15:43,485 --> 00:15:46,070
We've looked in every
other car on the train.
297
00:15:46,112 --> 00:15:48,156
[Fluttershy] Maybe you
need to look again.
298
00:15:48,198 --> 00:15:51,993
[Pinkie] Yeah. Because
we're totally not in here.
299
00:15:52,035 --> 00:15:53,662
[Fluttershy] And we're
definitely not in here
300
00:15:53,704 --> 00:15:57,165
if you're going to try and make
us play against Appleoosa.
301
00:15:57,207 --> 00:15:58,750
Or anypony else!
302
00:15:58,792 --> 00:15:59,918
[ahem]
303
00:16:00,210 --> 00:16:03,004
Oh, we're sorry
to let you down,
304
00:16:03,046 --> 00:16:04,715
but it's better
to do it now
305
00:16:04,756 --> 00:16:07,008
than during the game
against Appleoosa.
306
00:16:07,050 --> 00:16:09,219
You don't have to play
against Appleoosa.
307
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:12,514
We don't?
308
00:16:12,556 --> 00:16:15,016
Nope. We're gonna
take your place,
309
00:16:15,058 --> 00:16:17,686
so you don't have to
worry about that at all.
310
00:16:17,728 --> 00:16:20,188
Why didn't you say so?
311
00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:23,692
But... We can't take on
Braeburn and his team
312
00:16:23,734 --> 00:16:25,777
without any practice
313
00:16:25,819 --> 00:16:28,780
so we need you to play
just one more time...
314
00:16:28,822 --> 00:16:29,822
Against us.
315
00:16:34,077 --> 00:16:36,204
Now I know we mixed
up the teams before,
316
00:16:36,246 --> 00:16:39,040
but since Dash and I
really need the practice,
317
00:16:39,082 --> 00:16:40,792
we'll play against
the two of you.
318
00:16:47,090 --> 00:16:49,050
Oh, I don't know how much
practice you'll get
319
00:16:49,092 --> 00:16:52,554
against us. We've been
playing just awful.
320
00:16:52,596 --> 00:16:54,055
Don't worry about it.
321
00:16:54,097 --> 00:16:57,058
Applejack and I just
need a little workout.
322
00:16:57,100 --> 00:16:59,853
Yep. You two just
do your best.
323
00:16:59,895 --> 00:17:01,062
I can do that.
324
00:17:05,901 --> 00:17:07,026
Oooooh!
325
00:17:13,700 --> 00:17:14,700
[gasp]
326
00:17:15,118 --> 00:17:16,118
[ahem]
327
00:17:21,124 --> 00:17:22,124
Ooooh!
328
00:17:26,004 --> 00:17:28,715
Looks like you two
really do need practice.
329
00:18:06,711 --> 00:18:08,129
Wheee!
330
00:18:08,171 --> 00:18:09,589
[snoring]
331
00:18:09,631 --> 00:18:10,199
[music ends]
332
00:18:10,214 --> 00:18:13,718
[giggles]
333
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,721
If you need more practice,
we can keep going.
334
00:18:16,763 --> 00:18:20,183
Yeah. I could do
this all day.
335
00:18:20,224 --> 00:18:22,143
Uh, no thanks.
336
00:18:22,185 --> 00:18:25,188
Playing against you two
is just as humiliating now
337
00:18:25,229 --> 00:18:27,607
as it was when we weren't
trying to show you
338
00:18:27,649 --> 00:18:29,233
how awesome you are.
339
00:18:29,275 --> 00:18:31,736
Wait. What?
340
00:18:33,780 --> 00:18:35,156
Finally!
341
00:18:35,198 --> 00:18:37,075
[thunk]
342
00:18:37,116 --> 00:18:40,037
You must have noticed how
you aren't bad anymore.
343
00:18:40,078 --> 00:18:42,956
Oooh yeah. Weird.
344
00:18:42,998 --> 00:18:46,751
But um, why were we
so terrible before?
345
00:18:46,793 --> 00:18:49,170
I guess some ponies
thrive on pressure
346
00:18:49,212 --> 00:18:51,172
and some ponies don't.
347
00:18:51,214 --> 00:18:53,216
And even though we weren't
playing, we were treating
348
00:18:53,257 --> 00:18:56,845
you like us which totally
stressed you out.
349
00:18:56,887 --> 00:18:59,931
And that just sucked the fun
right out of the game for you.
350
00:18:59,973 --> 00:19:01,641
And having fun is
what makes you
351
00:19:01,683 --> 00:19:04,019
really, really,
really good.
352
00:19:04,061 --> 00:19:06,813
But being good doesn't
matter if we're too afraid
353
00:19:06,855 --> 00:19:08,982
of letting ponies down.
354
00:19:09,024 --> 00:19:11,317
Yeah. What about all those
ponies back in Ponyville
355
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,737
counting on us to win.
356
00:19:13,778 --> 00:19:15,238
I'm sure folks want
you to win,
357
00:19:15,279 --> 00:19:18,199
but not if worrying about
it makes you miserable.
358
00:19:18,241 --> 00:19:20,660
Winning's never worth that.
359
00:19:20,702 --> 00:19:23,788
But how do we keep
from worrying about it?
360
00:19:23,830 --> 00:19:27,084
You could do what I do
and not think about it.
361
00:19:27,125 --> 00:19:31,212
Seriously, I don't think
about anything. Ever.
362
00:19:31,254 --> 00:19:33,048
Hmm, works for me!
363
00:19:38,095 --> 00:19:39,763
[roaring cheer]
364
00:19:39,804 --> 00:19:41,806
[Announcer] And with another
bouncing goal from Pinkie Pie,
365
00:19:41,848 --> 00:19:43,182
the score is tied!
366
00:19:45,268 --> 00:19:47,896
You guys are amazing!
367
00:19:47,938 --> 00:19:50,148
Braeburn is really good!
368
00:19:50,231 --> 00:19:53,944
So is that Pegasus. Oh I
don't know if we can win.
369
00:19:53,985 --> 00:19:55,904
You know what I would do...
370
00:19:55,946 --> 00:19:58,698
Not think about it?
371
00:19:58,740 --> 00:19:59,908
not think...
372
00:20:01,785 --> 00:20:05,246
Oh. Yeah. That.
373
00:20:05,288 --> 00:20:07,248
And as long as
you're having fun,
374
00:20:07,290 --> 00:20:09,208
it doesn't matter
if you win or not.
375
00:20:10,961 --> 00:20:12,170
[whistle tweets]
376
00:20:14,089 --> 00:20:16,758
Hee-hee! I think it's
more fun this way.
377
00:20:19,052 --> 00:20:23,264
And Pinkie wins the buckoff.
But her shot's rejected!
378
00:20:23,306 --> 00:20:26,267
Back to Braeburn, whose
kick's stopped by another
379
00:20:26,309 --> 00:20:30,147
Fluttershy save.
Next point wins.
380
00:20:30,188 --> 00:20:32,398
Lots of tense back
and forth here.
381
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,276
Fluttershy unleashes
her patented spin move.
382
00:20:35,318 --> 00:20:37,028
But Braeburn's there to-
383
00:20:37,070 --> 00:20:40,198
NO! It's Pinkie with
a somersault kick.
384
00:20:40,239 --> 00:20:45,203
What a move! And that's
the game! Ponyville wins!
385
00:20:45,244 --> 00:20:50,416
PONY-VILLE! PONY-VILLE!
PONY-VILLE! PONY-VILLE!
386
00:20:50,458 --> 00:20:54,545
PONY-VILLE! PONY-VILLE!
387
00:20:56,047 --> 00:20:59,300
Looks like you three
made quite an impression.
388
00:20:59,342 --> 00:21:02,053
Well, cousin, I
have to admit,
389
00:21:02,095 --> 00:21:04,889
your Ponyville team
played a pretty good game.
390
00:21:04,931 --> 00:21:10,061
Ha! Good game? We bucked the
hooves right off of you.
391
00:21:10,103 --> 00:21:12,313
Yep. You sure as shootin' did.
392
00:21:12,355 --> 00:21:14,941
I'm gonna have to get real
serious about a strategy
393
00:21:14,983 --> 00:21:17,027
for our rematch.
394
00:21:17,068 --> 00:21:19,362
Oh, I wouldn't get too serious.
395
00:21:19,403 --> 00:21:22,866
Yeah. Everypony knows the
secret to good Buckball
396
00:21:22,907 --> 00:21:25,326
is just having fun!
397
00:21:25,368 --> 00:21:28,955
