"♪" "♪ [birds chirping] [gasping for air] Twilight?" "Can you slow down a bit?" "[Aah!" "]" "Sorry, Spike." "It's just Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Applejack are getting back from their Seaward Shoals boat trip..." "I've done it." "It's such a shame Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy had to miss it for their Cloudsdale Flight School reunion." "Maybe the rest of us not going was for the best anyway." "I know the three of them were really looking forward to getting out of their element." "Getting out of their element?" "I think they all just wanted to try something new." "Huh." "I guess a boat trip qualifies as that." "My only worry is they'll be so excited... and I'll miss some of the details." "Just to be safe, I may need you to take notes." "Uh, right." "[train chugging] [steam hisses]" "So how was the trip?" "Well, at least you don't have to worry about them talking over each other." "♪ My little pony, my little pony ♪" "♪ Aaaahhh my little pony ♪" "♪ I used to wonder what friendship could be. ♪" "♪ Until you all shared its magic with me...fun, beautiful... strong ♪" "♪ Sharing kindness it's an easy feat ♪" "♪ And magic makes it all complete!"

"[knock at door]" "Gummy, Opalescence, and Winona?" "This is a surprise." "Are Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Applejack with you?" ""Sorry darling, but I must decline the invitation to your soiree." "While I'm sure it will be positively resplendent, there are certain ponies I'd rather not associate with at the moment." "Rarity."" "Rarity's not coming?" "Aww." "So I polished my scales for nothing." ""Sorry I can't make it, but I'm still a mite upset about everything that happened on the boat." "Applejack."" ""Sorry I can't make the tea party today, but there's a small problem with the guest list." "Plus, I'm right in the middle of a very important cupcake." "Pinkie."" "Come on, Spike." "Since our friends won't come here and tell us what happened, we'll just have to go to them." "Right behind you." "[gasp] I am sorry, but my mane wasn't made to support marine life." "Ruined." "Completely ruined." "I don't know, Rarity." "Maybe you could..." "Throw it away?" "Yes, I agree." "Just another innocent casualty of that disastrous boat trip." "Spike and I were wondering what happened out there." "Please, darling, I don't know if I'll ever be able to discuss it." "It's far too painful." "If it's too difficult to talk about, we completely understand." "Well, since you dragged it out of me:" "It all started at the docks." "I knew Applejack and Pinkie Pie wanted to get out of their element, so I thought I would surprise them with an elegant cruise." "I had brought a small bag with just a few key essentials." "All right, ponies." "Prepare yourselves for luxury on the high seas!" "That sounds... fun." "The sea air carries a portent for trouble this day." "T'is a treacherous and perilous journey that lies ahead of us." "We sail to adventure or our very doom." "I have no idea what you just said, but your wardrobe is delightfully seaworthy!" "Despite Applejack's colorful seafarer attitude," "I was still determined to get my friends out of their element by providing them with all the refinements of a luxury cruise." "I'd made sure to bring the most delectable nibbles for them to enjoy." "Oooh." "I brought food, too!" "Let's see, I've got cotton candy, taffy, circus peanuts and lots of other super-yummy stuff." "Oooh Pinkie Pie, that all looks positively delectable, but you simply must try one of these cucumber sandwiches." "Dig in!" "Hmmm." "Arrgh!" "Get those off me ship!" "[splash] [bubbling]" "Ohh, I'm so sorry." "I had no idea you had such distaste for cucumbers!" "Yar-har-har-har!" "Hardy-har-har-har." "Hmmm." "That doesn't sound like Applejack." "Well, hold on, because it gets even worse." "Pinkie tried to lighten the mood with some fun maritime games." "It's Piñata O'clock!" "Wanna give it a whack, Rarity?" "Oh, darling, of course!" "[thunderclap and whistling wind]" "Har-har!" "Har-har!" "I'll be charting' a course to the very heart of that maelstrom." "♪ [dramatic music]" "U-U-Uh, Applejack?" "Just a thought, but maybe we should steer the ship toward calmer waters." "This be the only way to Plunder Cove." "[thunder crack] [crashing waves]" "Perhaps if I take a quick look-see at that map of yours," "I could find us a more cruise-friendly path." "There'll be no mutiny aboard me ship!" "Look at me!" "I'm the captain too!" "Clearly Pinkie Pie had caught Applejack's sea madness." "[squeals and grunts]" "♪ [dramatic music]" "Is that all you've got?" "Yar-hahah-HAR!" "[whoosh]" "Then what happened!" "?" "Oh, the boat sank, obviously." "So, Applejack got some sort of "sea madness"" "and caused the boat to capsize?" "After all the effort I put in to provide her and Pinkie with the exact luxury cruise they needed to get out of their elements, that is how Applejack thanked me." "So, you were stuck out in the middle of the ocean?" "How in Equestria did you get back?" "Spike, darling, you'll have to forgive me." "I'm far too emotionally drained to discuss the matter any further." "Rarity?" "I don't suppose there's any chance you might be uh, exaggerating things just a little?" "Well!" "I can assure you that that is exactly what happened." "And if you don't believe me, you can ask Pinkie Pie." "I am quite certain her story will be the same." "So, that's what Rarity said happened on the boat, huh?" "We thought there was a chance she might have [ahem]" "Embellished the story just a tad." "So we wanted to hear about what happened from you." "Did Applejack really capsize the boat?" "Of course not!" "That's just silly." "There's no way Applejack could have sank the boat." "I knew it!" "That's a relief." "Because Rarity did!" "What?" "!" "It all started on the docks." "I knew Rarity and Applejack wanted to get out of their element, so I figured I'd throw them the funnest, silliest boat party ever." "But I guess Rarity had other ideas." "I thought I overpacked until I saw Rarity and her team of porter ponies." "Prepare yourselves for a luxury cruise!" "A day of opulence, decadence and extravagance!" "[gulls squawking]" "That sounds fun." "Ahoy, mateys!" "Batten down the hatches, ya'll 'cause this here's gonna be a boat ride of adventure!" "I can live with that." "♪ [military march]" "Huh." "They just keep coming." "Now you can't throw a silly boat party without snacks, so I made sure to pack the funnest party food" "I could find." "Rarity?" "Would you care for some cotton candy?" "It's freshly spun!" "Oh, Pinkie Pie, those all look simply... well, simple." "But they're obviously unfit for a luxury cruise." "Now my cucumber sandwiches on the other hoof..." "Try one." "Then you'll understand." "Oh, are those chocolate-chip?" "[splash] [bubbling]" "Sorry, cucumber sandwiches are so ten seconds ago." "Wait, wait, wait." "That doesn't sound like Rarity." "Just wait until you hear how much more unlike her she sounds!" "I thought I'd lighten the mood with some super-fun party boat games." "But Rarity was a real wet blanket." "It's Piñata Time!" "Oooh!" "Wanna give it a whack, Rarity?" "[derisive laughter]" "Oh, you were serious." "Well, that's adorable." "That's the spirit." "Let's get this boat party started!" "Whoa, O-Oh, Whoa!" "doggy!" "[thunderclap]" "♪ [dramatic music] [splash] [squeals and grunts]" "Tug of war?" "Now we're talking!" "(Screams-Tug of War)" "Whoever wins gets to be captain!" "[screams and growls]" "Or one of us could just be captain now." "Oh don't worry, dear." "Luxury cruises never sink!" "What?" "!" "[whoosh]" "And that's why the boat sinking was all Rarity's fault." "That seems odd." "I mean, we trust you, of course, but it's all so extraordinary." "Oh, it's extraordinary, all right." "In fact, the only thing I might have gotten wrong was that there were even MORE porter ponies." "But just to be safe, you should talk to Applejack." "She'll know exactly how many porter ponies there were." "OK, but if the boat sank, how did you all get rescued?" "Oh, that's easy." "We just... [scream] My muffins!" "That's it." "We've got to go talk to Applejack." "Good idea." "She'll straighten this out." "I just really, really want to know how they made it back." "But yeah, that'd be great, too." "Hold on a tick." "Pinkie Pie says it's Rarity's fault" "And Rarity says I sank the boat?" "Well, that's plum crazy." "If you two really want to know what happened, I'll tell ya." "Y'all know how Pinkie Pie and Rarity wanted to" "Well, I brought a treasure map to give 'em a rip-roaring, seafaring adventure!" "But they had other ideas." "La-la-la!" "Prepare yourselves for the most luxurious boat outing that ever outed a boat!" "And more fun than you can shake a stick at because I brought a stick!" "All right, mateys." "But just y'all wait till you see the high-seas adventure I've got planned." "Unfortunately, they seemed less interested .... adventures and more interested in snacks." "Oh darling, that food isn't fit for a pony of proper breeding, darling and refinement, darling." "Now my cucumber sandwiches on the other hoof..." "Betcha I can fit them all in my mouth!" "Pinkie, darling, please!" "[chomp chomp chomp]" "Uh-oooh!" "Agh!" "[splash] [bubbling]" "Rarity, I..." "Well, I never!" "Humpha!" "Me neither!" "Humpha!" "Do you want to say it or should I?" "That sure doesn't sound like Rarity or Pinkie Pie." "Oh, it gets a sight worse than that." "It's P.W.T.!" "Piñata-whacking time!" "Oh, darling, "whacking" is a base pastime for common ponies, doesn't interest me in the least." "Meh." "Hee hee!" "Huh?" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "[thunderclap] [whistling wind]" "Looks like we need to change course." "Oooh!" "Why, this will make a perfect tablecloth for my cheese board." "Maybe so, but it's also the only way to find Thunder Cove!" "[giggling]" "And Pinkie Pie was just about as helpful as a weasel in a hen house." "Captain Pinkie Pie reporting for map duty!" "[squeals] [splash]" "♪ [dramatic music]" "Hold on, everypony!" "[whoosh]" "Wait, so it was Rarity and Pinkie's fault?" "Yup." "And maybe if they ever apologize," "I'll consider talking to them again." "If they have... each other..." "I don't know how we're going to get them to talk again." "Neither do I, Spike." "Neither do I." "♪" "There's got to be some way to fix this." "If Applejack," "Pinkie Pie, and Rarity keep not talking to each other, they could forget what good friends they really are." "I just don't get it." "All of their stories are so different." "We're never going to figure out what really happened." "Their stories were different, but they also had a lot in common." "I guess." "They were all on a ship that sank and... that's about it." "Not quite." "♪" "Ah-ha!" "Not only do I think I know how the boat sank," "I have a pretty good idea how to get Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie back together!" "I hope this plan of yours works." "U-Uh!" "Winona brought me your note about a friendship emergency." "How can I help?" " (gasp)" "Opalescence delivered your message, Twilight." "What !" "You ...." "It's a good thing it was time for Gummy's bath, or I might not have seen your note about the emergency, Twilight." "What's she doing here?" "Sorry, but I just didn't know how else to get the three of you here together." "And there really is a friendship emergency." "Yours!" "Oh, there's no emergency." "I'm just waiting for an apology." "An apology?" "Why would you want me to apologize, when it was Rarity's fault?" "Applejack clearly caused the boat to sink!" "She stranded us in the middle of the ocean!" "UGH!" "Will somepony please tell me how you made it back?" "[gurgling]" "Well, maybe it wasn't the middle of the ocean." "(deep breath)" "Even so, I don't appreciate being hornswoggled into coming back here." "On that, at least we agree." "(ye..ah)" "I know each other... on how the boat capsized and blame each other... but if you come on the boat with me," "I'll show you what really happened." "Well, not that I have any doubt, but it will feel good for everypony to see exactly whose fault it was." "I think we all know which pony's about to be proven right." "We sure do!" "Like I said, I sure hope this works." "Heh heh heh." "Whatever you're looking for, I hope you find it soon." "Don't worry, Spike." "I've got it all under control." "While all of your stories seemed very different, they all had something in common." "Cucumber sandwiches!" "What in the hay does that have to do with anything?" "[splash]" "And why would you waste a perfectly good hors d'oeuvre?" "You also mentioned the bubbling water." "And the swell." "Cucumber just happens to be the favorite food of the Tri-horned Bunyip." "And bubbles, followed by a swell is what happens when they swim up to the shallows from deep water!" "So, we attracted a tri-horned whatchamacallit..." "With cucumber sandwiches?" "Sounds like a stretch." "Hello, Bunyip, sir." "So that's a..." "A Tri-horned Bunyip..." "Who's very sorry he accidentally knocked over your boat, right?" "Wait; the storm had nothing to do with the capsizing?" "No." "All right." "Even if our friend the Bunyip is responsible for taking the boat." "that still doesn't excuse a certain pony's behavior." "Me!" "?" "How about you and Pinkie Pie?" "Pfft!" "Wha-?" "!" "How-ME?" "..." "Twilight:" "I think I can explain that too." "Each one of you spent so much time trying to come up with the perfect way to get the others out of their element, that you didn't notice your friends were doing the same thing." "Wait a minute." "You brought all those games and things for us?" "Of course!" "I figured the boat trip was the perfect time to do things that were silly and fun." "And I was just trying to give the two of you the elegant cruise I thought you deserved." "And I just wanted to give you two a high seas adventure, since that'd be something new and different for y'all." "OOOOHHHHHHH." "That is so sweet." "You must have gone through so much trouble." "Well, not half as much trouble as you did making all that fancy food." "And bringing all those games." "I guess this just teaches us that even longtime friends need to work at communication." "Well, there's something I'd like to communicate to you all right now." "You girls are the best friends a pony could ever have." "Oh, let's never fight again!" "Agreed." "You've got it!" "[growl]" "All right, you big softy." "Bring it in." "Come on, Bunyip, sir." "You've got it!" "♪" "One thing to share..." "There's nothing like a luxurious adventure boat party, to get you out of your element." "Spike:" "You said it!"
