"♪♪" "Hey, Apple Bloom!" "Rarity's re-organizing her shop and look what she found!" "Old costumes from the talent show!" "We thought they'd come in handy in case we ever help a Pony put on a play or need to make a quick escape disguised as clowns!" "Here you go, Big Mac." "Whoa!" "That sure is a lot of apples!" "Are you making another delivery to Starlight's old village?" "Yeeeup." "That's an awful long way for a Pony to go, isn't it?" "Yeeeup." "You've been going there a lot lately." "What is this?" "Your fifth trip this week?" "[giggle]" "Yeeeup." "OK, well, have fun!" "So what other costumes did you bring, Sweetie Belle?" "Are you crazy?" "We can't talk about costumes at a time like this!" "Time like what?" "Your brother is hiding something." "Did you see the way he was acting?" "Yeah, he totally blushed when you brought up how often he's been going to Starlight's old village." "Something is definitely going on." "There can only be one reason a Pony would travel so far, so often." "He's taking private skiing lessons!" " He's training for a marathon!" " I've been cooking a lot of broccoli and he wants to get away from the smell!"

"No, that's crazy." "I think it's my broccoli thing." "Why don't we just ask him?" "You saw how shifty he was acting earlier." "There's no way he'll tell us what he's doing." "Plus, I really want to go undercover." "We already have costumes." "Call me, Agent Rainbowhead." "I'll be Shimmering Spectacles:" "a librarian with a mysterious past." "And I'll be a pirate spy." "Argh." "A spyrate!" "Oh!" "Avast!" "Our ship be leaving port!" "Huh?" "Big Mac's leaving." "If we're gonna be spies, we gotta go NOW!" "[whistling]" "Big Mac's comin'!" "Quick, act like apples!" "What?" "How?" "♪♪" "♪♪ [no audio]" "Who's that Pony?" "Let me see!" "I don't know." "Shouldn't have taken the binoculars." "I don't know anyPony here." "That must be Sugar Belle." "Applejack told me about her bakery." "Obviously, she's just been ordering a lot of apples." "So nothing fishy's going on." "No way!" "We came here to be spies!" "And no spy I know has ever solved a case that quick." "How many spies do you know?" "That's not important." "What's important is that we do more recon!" "Follow my lead." "♪♪" "♪♪" "Whoa, she sure likes her apples!" "What is she doing?" "Making the biggest apple pie in Equestria?" "Thanks for coming all this way, Big Mac." "It sure is nice seeing you again so soon." "♪♪" "Yeeeup." "All I used to bake were boring old muffins." "But thanks to your apple deliveries," "I get to bake all kinds of delicious treats!" "Apple pies, apple fritters, apple turnovers, caramel apples, caramel apple cakes... [sigh]" "I just wish I had more room to display it all." "My shelves only hold so much." "I'm telling you, this Pony really likes her apples!" "[gasp] Or Big Mac!" "Huh?" "Just look!" "Ooh!" "Uh!" "[giggle]" "Sweetie Belle, I think you're right!" "I think my brother has a crush!" "Shhhh!" "Psst!" "Big Mac!" "Now remember, my brother's super shy so he's probably going to be embarrassed about his crush." "Just try and make him feel comfortable." "Hey, Big Mac!" "It's me, Apple Bloom!" "Yeeeup." "We're here, too!" "Mm hm." "I'm going to ask you a very personal question and I want you to answer honestly." "Do you... have a crush..." "on..." "Sugar Belle?" "Yeeeup." "Well, that was easy!" "This is so exciting!" "My big brother has his very first crush!" "First crush?" "What about Cheerilee?" "It doesn't really count when you trick a Pony into drinking a love potion, does it?" "Nope." "My brother has a cra-ush!" "My brother has a cra-ush!" "My brother has a cra-ush!" "Wait." "Does Sugar Belle even know you like her?" "Nuh uh." "Then you gotta tell her!" "[gulp]" "We're pretty sure she likes you!" "I mean, she keeps ordering apples just so she can see you again!" "Ya think so?" "Totally." "But you'll never know if you don't try." "OK." "Go get 'er, Big Mac!" "♪♪" "♪♪" "[crash]" "Hey girl." "I was writing poetry by the pond when I saw these flowers." "I thought I'd show them how pretty you are." "Oh." "Thanks, Feather Bangs!" "Um, is it possible to have two crushes at once?" "Because it looks like Big Mac may not be the only Pony" "Sugar Belle likes!" "♪♪" "Hey, Big Mac!" "Where you goin'?" "Home." "You can't let that Feather fella get in the way of your one true love." "You've gotta take him down!" "What can he do that you can't?" "That!" "Whoops!" "Ha ha." "These balls are like you." "I'll always catch you if you fall." "[swooning]" "Seriously?" "That line worked?" "She'll never pick me." "Sure she will, cause we're gonna help you!" "No love potions!" "[laughter]" "Don't worry, Big Mac." "We learned our lesson the hard way." "Yeah, we're never gonna do that again." "Besides, I know exactly what to do!" "When I was younger I read all the fairy tales." "When you were younger, huh?" "Well, I was younger on the way here." "It was a long ride!" "Anyway, as long as we do what the book says, you're pretty much guaranteed a happy ending!" "How 'bout this one?" "!" "Rescuing a damsel Pony in distress." "That's perfect." "Of course, we'll have to improvise without a dragon." "Hm!" "Too bad Spike isn't here." "Not that he's very threatening." "[giggles]" "So what should we do?" "Wait around for Sugar Belle to get herself into a scary situation?" "OR we bring the danger to her!" "[gulp]" "All right, Scootaloo's gonna pretend to take" "Sugar Belle's things, then you swoop in and stop her." "Ready?" "Nope." "C'mon, you're gonna be her hero!" "In fairy tales, the Knight in Shining Armor always gets the girl." "SomePony help!" "♪♪" "Here's your sugar, Sugar." "Though it is not as sweet... as you." "[swooning]" "Thank you, Feather!" "That smooth-talking Pony stole our rescue!" "And it totally would have worked!" "Eeyup!" "We're just gonna have to keep trying!" "Big Mac, are you ready to take it up a notch?" "Oh, Eeyup!" "Oh, Nope." "Trust us." "There's nothing more romantic than waking your special Pony from a sleeping spell with a magical kiss!" "See?" "They rode off into the sunset." "[sighs]" "Any sign of Feather Bangs?" "Negative." "Coast is clear!" "It's now or never, Big Mac!" "[gulp]" "[smooch]" "Ah!" "Oh, girl, you've been workin' hard all day." "Allow me to treat you like the princess you are!" "[sighs]" "Hey!" "That's our metaphorical sunset they're riding off into!" "All right." "This ends now!" "Feather Bangs may have good timing." "And a good mane." "But let's see him compete with a song!" "Say what now?" "!" "Of course!" "Why didn't we think of it before?" "Every great love story hinges on the romantic musical number!" "Big Mac, you've gotta write a song for Sugar Belle!" "Eyup!" "♪♪" "Come on, Big Mac!" "Feather Bangs is so romantic." "When he speaks, I pretend he's talking to me." "Come on!" "You can do better than him!" "Just like we practiced."

"Big Mac!" "Are you OK?" "Nope." "Sorry it didn't work out with Sugar Belle." "We don't get it." "Big, grand gestures always work in the fairy tales!" "But Sugar Belle's not a fairy tale princess;" "she's a real Pony." "She's kind and she works hard and she's sweeter than everything in her bakery." "That's it!" "We should have been thinking about what would mean a lot to Sugar Belle!" "Hmmm." "[gasp]" "I know just the thing!" "But I'm gonna need your help." "Really?" "Even after we messed it up?" "Yeeup!" "C'mon!" "♪♪" "♪♪" "Hello!" "My name's Shimmering Spectacles and I'm a librarian with a mysterious past." "Oh." "OK." "I'm... wait a minute." "You look familiar." "I shouldn't." "Um..." "I'm new in town." "Mind showing me around?" "Uh, sure." "That's the whole town." "It's just the one street." "♪♪ [clatter]" "Oh, no, clumsy me!" "Here, let me help you clean it up." "I don't think Scootaloo can hold her off much longer!" "Uh... now hold on a minute." "Are you sure I can't buy you a new bag?" "I'm good." "It's no big deal." "But... uh... umm..." "OK, what's going on?" "The cupcake has landed!" "Repeat!" "The cupcake has landed!" "Big Mac!" "♪♪" "You made me a new display case?" "Yeeeup..." "And you made it bigger!" "You remembered!" "Now I have twice as much room for all my desserts." "[gasp] Which means..." "I can make even more!" "I've been dying to try baking cream pies and whoopie pies and icebox cakes and of course, more apple treats." "Oh, Big Mac, thank you so much." "This is the sweetest thing anyPony's ever done for me." "Ummm... yee... nooope... uh..." "I like you, too." "[sigh]" "That was the most romantic thing ever!" "Wait a minute." "I recognize you fillies!" "Have they been with you this whole time?" "I'm Big Mac's little sister." "And these are my friends." "We're sorry for everything we put you through today," "Sugar Belle." "Big Mac never would have gone through with all of those crazy" "Over-the-top..." "Downright ridiculous... attempts to impress you if we hadn't put him up to it." "But we learned our lesson!" "Romance isn't about impressing somePony;" "it's about doing something that means something special to that Pony you lo..." "[ahem] like a lot." "Uh, Apple Bloom?" "I think they get it." "[giggle]" "♪ Sugar Belle!" "Whoa!" "Oh!" "Whoa, whoa!" "♪" "♪ Oh!" "Whoa, whoa!" "Oh!" "Whoa, whoa!" "♪" "♪ Oh!" "Whoa, whoa!" "♪" "Sorry, Feather." "You're a little too late." "Yeah, Sugar Belle's already picked her special somePony." "But don't worry." "You've got three not-so-secret admirers right behind you!" "[sigh]" "What should I say to them?" "Uh." "You're asking us for advice?" "Uh huh." "Look, I can mane-flip, write poetry and juggle, but actually talking to a Pony?" "It scares me almost as much as loneliness." "Will you help me?" "Please?" "Gee, I don't know about this." "He just needs a little nudge in the conversation department!" "Besides, I don't think Big Mac's ready to leave just yet." "Let's do it!" "Feather Bangs, the Cutie Mark Crusaders are at your service!" "[laughter] Corrected by srjanapala"
