1. Who?
Oh, it's you, Owlowiscious.Copy !req
2. C'mon, try and keep up!Copy !req
3. Winona? I mean... Winona's head?Copy !req
4. Um, is this weird, or is it just me?Copy !req
5. Angel?
Gummy?Copy !req
6. Okay, this is officially beyond weird now and moved right on down to freaky town.Copy !req
7. - Alright!
- Aw sweetie!
- Let's get this thing started!Copy !req
8. Sincerest apologies, Rainbow, if our pets were bothering you.Copy !req
9. Say you're sorry, Opal.Copy !req
10. She's... sorry.Copy !req
11. What are you all doing out here?Copy !req
12. Why, we always round up our critters for a regular ol' Pony Pet Playdate in this park.Copy !req
13. You do?Copy !req
14. Same time every week.Copy !req
15. I thought you knew. You didn't know? She didn't know?Copy !req
16. Well we had initially planned on inviting Rainbow, of course, exceptâ€"Copy !req
17. We were totally gonna invite you, Rainbow, then Twilight remembered that you don't even have a pet.Copy !req
18. And Rarity remembered that you really like to take naps in the afternoon.Copy !req
19. Applejack figured you wouldn't be missing out on anything anyway...Copy !req
20. And Fluttershy and I nodded our heads in agreement like this.Copy !req
21. Oh, please don't be mad at us!Copy !req
22. Oh, I'm not mad. You all are right.Copy !req
23. Not much point of a Pony Pet Playdate for me if I'm a pony without a pet, right?Copy !req
24. Exactly!Copy !req
25. So, if you'll excuse us...Copy !req
26. Alright! Come on Winona!Copy !req
27. Hey, now wait a minute!Copy !req
28. Just because I don't have a pet NOW, doesn't mean I never want a pet!Copy !req
29. Oh, really? You really want a pet? Really?Copy !req
30. Cause I've got so many wonderful choices at my house!Copy !req
31. And I know you'll just love them, and they'll love you!Copy !req
32. And you'll be best friends forever and ever!Copy !req
33. Now, Rainbow my dear, I cannot express my delightCopy !req
34. It's abundantly clear that somewhere out hereCopy !req
35. Is a pet that will suit you just right!Copy !req
36. I can't wait to get startedCopy !req
37. But first let me set a few rules:Copy !req
38. It's of utmost importance the pet that I getCopy !req
39. Is something that's awesome and coolCopy !req
40. Awesome, cool, got it.Copy !req
41. Sure! How about a bunny?Copy !req
42. They're cutesy and wutesy and quick as can be!Copy !req
43. Cutesy, wutesy? Have you even met me?Copy !req
44. Rainbow have faithCopy !req
45. You see, I will bet youCopy !req
46. Somewhere in here is a pet that will get youCopy !req
47. Come on, the sky's the limit!Copy !req
48. Sky is good. I'd like it to fly!Copy !req
49. Really? Because I think this widdle puddy tat has your name written all over him.Copy !req
50. Yes he does. Aww, look, he likes you!Copy !req
51. Pass.Copy !req
52. I have so many wonderful choices for you to decideCopy !req
53. There are otters and seals with massive appealCopy !req
54. Otters and seals do not fly.Copy !req
55. Maybe not, but I've seen this particular seal catch ten feet of air when he breaches the water.Copy !req
56. That's it. I'm outta here.Copy !req
57. Wait! There must be a pet hereCopy !req
58. That will fit the ticketCopy !req
59. How about a ladybug or a cute cricket?Copy !req
60. Bigger! And cooler!Copy !req
61. Bigger. Cooler. Right.Copy !req
62. I've got just the thing in that tree, DashCopy !req
63. Meet your new fabulous pet, Squirrely!Copy !req
64. It's just a squirrel.Copy !req
65. Not just any squirrel. A flying squirrel!Copy !req
66. Yeah... So, like I was saying.Copy !req
67. Fluttershy, pal, this won't cut itCopy !req
68. I need a pet to keep up with me!Copy !req
69. Something awesome, something flyingCopy !req
70. With coolness that defies gravity!Copy !req
71. I'm sensing you want an animal that can fly.Copy !req
72. You think?Copy !req
73. I have plenty of wonderful creatures who soar in the skyCopy !req
74. Like a sweet hummingbird or a giant monarch butterflyCopy !req
75. Better, but cooler!Copy !req
76. I see. How about an owl, or a wasp, or a toucan?Copy !req
77. There's so many wonderful creatures the likes of thatCopy !req
78. There are falcons and eaglesCopy !req
79. They are both quite regalCopy !req
80. Or perhaps what you need is a dark and mysterious bat?Copy !req
81. Now you're talking!Copy !req
82. But instead of just one stand out, now that's too many.Copy !req
83. So many choices, and such riches a-plentyCopy !req
84. Not a bad problem to have if you ask me.Copy !req
85. The bat would be awesome, but the wasp I'm digging tooCopy !req
86. You have something in a yellow striped bat?Copy !req
87. No...Copy !req
88. I've got a hot pink flamingo, just dying to meet youCopy !req
89. What to do, what to do?Copy !req
90. Of course! That's it! There's really just one wayCopy !req
91. To find out which animal's bestCopy !req
92. Hold a contest, of speed, agility and guts!Copy !req
93. That will put each pet to the test!Copy !req
94. Don't forget style, that should be consideredCopy !req
95. Then we'll know for sure who's best of the leaderCopy !req
96. The one who is awesome and coolCopy !req
97. Just like me!Copy !req
98. Can't settle for less, 'cause I'm the bestCopy !req
99. So a contest we will see!Copy !req
100. Who's the number one, greatest, perfectest petCopy !req
101. In the world for me!Copy !req
102. May the race beginCopy !req
103. And may the best pet win!Copy !req
104. So! You all think you've got what it takes to be my pet, do ya?Copy !req
105. Well, we'll just see about that!Copy !req
106. If any of you don't think you can handle it, bow out now before you humiliate yourself in front of your peers.Copy !req
107. This competition isn't for the weak. You'd better be prepared to step up your game!Copy !req
108. You call that flapping?Copy !req
109. That's better.Copy !req
110. There's only room on Team Dash for one of you, and my future pet needs to be able to take it to the extreme!Copy !req
111. Any questions?Copy !req
112. I got one. Does she understand what a pet really needs?Copy !req
113. Yeah, like care and attention, love and affection.Copy !req
114. And breath mints!Copy !req
115. Now, you just pay attention, and try your best, and-Copy !req
116. Seriously, Fluttershy! The turtle? What did you bring that thing here for?Copy !req
117. Technically he's a tortoise, and he's always dreamed of being somepony's pet.Copy !req
118. He just wants a chance to compete, he won't get in the way. You won't even know he's here.Copy !req
119. No.Copy !req
120. Oh, just let him try.Copy !req
121. But there's no way he can possibly keep up. Look at him!Copy !req
122. - It won't hurt to let him try...
- But—Copy !req
123. Just let him try?Copy !req
124. Fine!Copy !req
125. But don't say I didn't warn you!
This isn't a game, you know!Copy !req
126. Alright, now these games will determine which one of you has the most important qualities I'm looking for in a pet.Copy !req
127. Speed...Copy !req
128. Agility...Copy !req
129. Guts...Copy !req
130. Style...Copy !req
131. Coolness.Copy !req
132. Awesomeness.Copy !req
133. And radicalness.Copy !req
134. Aren't those all the same thing?Copy !req
135. You would think that, Twilight. And that's why you would never qualify to be my pet.Copy !req
136. Speed! On your marks...Copy !req
137. Get set...Copy !req
138. Sorta speedy... not speedy...Copy !req
139. Pretty speedy... could be more speedy...Copy !req
140. Yeah! That's speed!Copy !req
141. That's just sad.Copy !req
142. Agility!Copy !req
143. Sorta agile...Copy !req
144. Not agile...Copy !req
145. Pretty agile...Copy !req
146. Could be more agile...Copy !req
147. Wanna know the opposite of agility? That.Copy !req
148. Yeah baby, now that's what I call agility!Copy !req
149. Don't leave me hanging!Copy !req
150. I'm gonna have to shave a point off your score for that.Copy !req
151. Okay! Which of you has the guts to try and get Opal's favorite toy away from her?Copy !req
152. Now that takes guts!Copy !req
153. Style!Copy !req
154. Any pet of mine's gotta look good, 'cause you gotta make me look good!Copy !req
155. Coolness!Copy !req
156. Sorta cool.Copy !req
157. Not cool.Copy !req
158. Pretty cool.Copy !req
159. Could be cooler.Copy !req
160. Not what I had in mind.Copy !req
161. I can't hear you!Copy !req
162. Now that's a cool sound!Copy !req
163. Sorta awesome.Copy !req
164. Not awesome.Copy !req
165. Could be more awesome.Copy !req
166. Yeah, that is awesome!Copy !req
167. You did that already. That's pretty much all you can do, huh?Copy !req
168. That was truly awesome!Copy !req
169. But... I'm afraid this is the radicalness competition, so I'm gonna have to take some points off.Copy !req
170. - Listen, turtle...
- Tortoise!Copy !req
171. Whatever!Copy !req
172. You've had your fun, but I think you and I both know who made the cut and who didn't.Copy !req
173. You didn't.Copy !req
174. I mean... A for effort and everything, you gave it your best shot,Copy !req
175. maybe I've got a gold star sticker around here somewhere you can have, but, seriously, go home.Copy !req
176. You're starting to creep me out.Copy !req
177. So, anyway...Copy !req
178. You're all outstanding competitors, but there can only be one of you who's number one.Copy !req
179. So the final, tie-breaking contest is going to be...Copy !req
180. Pause for dramatic effect...Copy !req
181. A race against... me!Copy !req
182. Through Ghastly Gorge!Copy !req
183. Gesundheit.Copy !req
184. Actually, Ghastly Gorge isn't scary. It's fun.Copy !req
185. I've flown through it a million times myself, so, obviously I'll be at the front of the pack.Copy !req
186. But whichever of you make it across the finish line with me, will have proven you can keep up with me.Copy !req
187. And will have earned the honor, and glory, of getting to be my pet!Copy !req
188. Ready?Copy !req
189. Set go!Copy !req
190. Try to keep up!Copy !req
191. Can't catch me!Copy !req
192. C'mon, slowpokes! You wanna win, don't ya?Copy !req
193. Oh! I forgot to tell you!
Watch out for the Koray eels!Copy !req
194. They don't like it when you get too close to their nests... like this!Copy !req
195. Easy, peasy, one-two-threesy! Right guys?Copy !req
196. AVALANCHE!Copy !req
197. C'mon... no! Wait! Come back! Don't leave me!Copy !req
198. I'm the one who's supposed to win!
I don't wanna end up stuck here... forever!Copy !req
199. Oh no, nonono, this can't be happening.Copy !req
200. Forever is way too long to be trapped in Ghastly Gorge. I mean, it's like, forever!Copy !req
201. Somepony! Anypony! Help me!Copy !req
202. My prayers have been answered!Copy !req
203. Oh, thankyouthankyouthank- You?Copy !req
204. Oh no!Copy !req
205. Now I'm not only going to be stuck here forever, I'm gonna be stuck here with the most annoying turtle in the world!Copy !req
206. I'm doomed. DOOMED, I tell you!Copy !req
207. Something's not right here.Copy !req
208. Where's Rainbow Dash?Copy !req
209. Great galloping galoshes! There's been an avalanche in there!Copy !req
210. Rainbow!Copy !req
211. - Wait! Look! It's the turtle!
- Tortoise!Copy !req
212. Whatever...Copy !req
213. And he's carrying something on his back...Copy !req
214. It's Rainbow Dash! It's her! It's Rainbow!Copy !req
215. Maybe we'd better go meet him halfway.Copy !req
216. Way to go, little guy!Copy !req
217. Thank goodness you're not hurt, Rainbow!Copy !req
218. Just my pride.Copy !req
219. I certainly hope all of this dreadful dust was worth it!Copy !req
220. It sure was, if it means Rainbow gets to have her own little critter just like the rest of us from now on.Copy !req
221. Thanks. What you did... I owe you one.Copy !req
222. Rainbow! Your new pet is over here waiting for you!Copy !req
223. Right... yeah. That.Copy !req
224. What's the matter?Copy !req
225. You got your perfect pet, right?Copy !req
226. The best of the best like you wanted, remember?Copy !req
227. It can fly and it's not a squirrel! Should we sing about it again?Copy !req
228. A falcon sure looks good on you, Rainbow.Copy !req
229. Easy, fella. Nothing to be afraid of.Copy !req
230. The falcon sure does look cool... he's absolutely everything I wanted in a pet.Copy !req
231. Yay?Copy !req
232. But I said whoever crosses the finish line WITH me gets to be my pet.Copy !req
233. You did! You did say that!
She did say that, that was the rule!Copy !req
234. And the only racer who crossed the finish line with me, was the one who stopped to save me when I needed help.Copy !req
235. The tortoise!Copy !req
236. But what about the—Copy !req
237. Would you look at that? He even smiles slow.Copy !req
238. Spike, take a letter.Copy !req
239. Dear Princess Celestia, I used to think that the most important traits to look for in a pet,Copy !req
240. or any best friend,Copy !req
241. were all physical competitive abilities.Copy !req
242. But now I can see how short-sighted and shallow that was.Copy !req
243. Today I learned what the most important quality really is. A certain kind of spirit.Copy !req
244. A stick-to-it-iveness. A never give up, can-do attitude that's the mark of a real winner. And this tortoise has it.Copy !req
245. - Tenacity.
- Gesundheit.Copy !req
246. You just can't stop that little guy.
He's like a... like a... tank!Copy !req
247. But Rainbow! You didn't want a pet that couldn't fly because it would keep you grounded and hold you back, remember?Copy !req
248. Alright c'mon over here Winona!Copy !req
249. C'mon, Tank! We're gonna be late for our very first Pony Pet Playdate!Copy !req
