00:00:03.860 --> 00:00:08.280
Okay, say Dash became a Wonderbolt cadet, and we learn not to underestimate her.

00:00:08.360 --> 00:00:10.820
That's ludicrous Twilight, how'd she pass the exam?

00:00:10.820 --> 00:00:14.660
Uh, say... she's a savant; she learns by not paying attention.

00:00:14.660 --> 00:00:17.440
She never pays attention, she'd know everything!

00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:22.200
We need to try to keep our lies straight on these friendship reports or Celestia's gonna give us skin cancer.

00:00:22.420 --> 00:00:24.080
I don't wanna go bald Twilight!

00:00:24.240 --> 00:00:25.680
You're already bald.

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:27.700
I'm worried my fin's gonna fall off!

00:00:27.700 --> 00:00:29.940
Just take a simple premise and flesh it out.

00:00:29.940 --> 00:00:32.420
Maybe could you write about somethin' that you did today?

00:00:32.420 --> 00:00:37.680
All I did today was spend hours making origami out of string cheese wrappers and shooting down your report ideas.

00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:40.640
[sputters] You said it was friendship origami!

00:00:40.940 --> 00:00:41.700
Well I lied.

00:00:41.700 --> 00:00:42.760
I knew it!

00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:47.380
I was gonna call you out but I didn't wanna look stupid for not knowing what "friendship origami" was.

00:00:47.380 --> 00:00:49.160
Never mind that, it's all in the past now.

00:00:49.420 --> 00:00:53.680
And it looks like we've got no other choice.  We've gotta go outside for inspiration.

00:00:55.900 --> 00:00:59.220
Hey AJ, you in here?  I brought your friendship origami.

00:00:59.220 --> 00:01:01.280
What the heck is friendship origami?

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:04.880
Don't be stupid AJ, everyone knows what friendship origami is.  What are you doin'?

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:05.840
Poopin'

00:01:06.020 --> 00:01:07.400
That's gross, why would you tell me that?

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.780
Well I'm the element of honesty so the first thing I thought of was the truth.

00:01:10.780 --> 00:01:12.120
What're y'all doin' in my room?

00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:13.940
We're gonna make more friendship origami!

00:01:13.940 --> 00:01:15.240
I missed out on the first batch.

00:01:15.240 --> 00:01:18.400
I'm sorry Dash; the origami was just a clever ruse.

00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:20.340
I've brought you here to send you to the moon.

00:01:20.520 --> 00:01:21.020
Oh.

00:01:21.340 --> 00:01:21.900
Oh darn.

00:01:21.900 --> 00:01:22.840
Well that's not good.

00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:24.400
Are you still gonna cook me spaghetti?

00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:25.800
The spaghetti was a lie too.

00:01:25.800 --> 00:01:27.320
I'm afraid you've turned completely evil.

00:01:27.320 --> 00:01:29.060
Hwe- Wyua-

00:01:29.060 --> 00:01:29.900
When?

00:01:29.900 --> 00:01:31.360
We all have our sins, Dash.

00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:33.660
Ooh gosh, I thought nobody knew about those.

00:01:33.660 --> 00:01:37.960
And once you're on the moon I'll begin to regret the terrible decision that lead me here and BOOM!

00:01:37.960 --> 00:01:39.100
Friendship report!

00:01:41.220 --> 00:01:41.720
Okay!

00:01:41.720 --> 00:01:43.720
And now we wait for the guilt to set in.

00:01:43.720 --> 00:01:45.720
Did y'all just seriously send Dash to the moon?

00:01:45.720 --> 00:01:47.100
Are you still pooping?

00:01:47.240 --> 00:01:47.880
Hurry up!

00:01:48.940 --> 00:01:49.440
Dash!

00:01:49.440 --> 00:01:50.320
What the heck!

00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:51.500
Where's that spaghetti?

00:01:51.500 --> 00:01:55.680
You don't get spaghetti!  You were supposed to be gone until I felt bad.

00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:58.980
Did you not immediately feel bad after sending me to the moon?

00:01:58.980 --> 00:01:59.780
Gosh I would.

00:01:59.800 --> 00:02:01.360
No!  I felt relieved.

00:02:01.360 --> 00:02:04.680
You know I get social anxiety;
talking to ponies stresses me out!

00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:08.320
Ya see Dash, this is how you know you've turned evil: you're not thinkin' of your friends.

00:02:08.460 --> 00:02:11.660
Aah, shoot.  Okay.  Alright alright send me back!

00:02:11.660 --> 00:02:15.640
What the heck?  Luna didn't come back from the moon for a thousand years.

00:02:15.640 --> 00:02:18.400
Maybe it depends on how much magic you put into the banishment.

00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.300
What is goin' on out there?  Is Dash on the moon or not?

00:02:21.300 --> 00:02:22.880
Why are ya doin' this in my room?

00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:26.520
Are you sure you don't feel bad?

00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:29.620
We all have our sins Dash and if I dwelled on them we'd never get ahead.

00:02:29.620 --> 00:02:32.440
Because you said to come back when you felt bad and here I am!

00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:35.200
This isn't working.

00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:38.200
Maybe you just don't believe in your heart that Dash deserves to be punished.

00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:39.340
No, I mean,

00:02:39.340 --> 00:02:41.240
abusing the power is starting to feel fun!

00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:42.700
I told ya this would happen.

00:02:42.700 --> 00:02:46.660
You know if I could send things to the moon there wouldn't be any dirty dishes around the house.

00:02:46.660 --> 00:02:48.640
We might not have any dishes at all for that matter.

00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:49.600
Plan B it is then.

00:02:49.820 --> 00:02:50.320
Hey!

00:02:50.540 --> 00:02:51.040
AJ!

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:54.320
I'd be out of the bathroom a lot faster if I didn't have a dang audience!

00:02:54.320 --> 00:02:56.680
Who all's out there?  I hear Twilight n' Spike,

00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:57.380
Dash is on the moon...

00:02:57.380 --> 00:03:00.260
Do you disapprove of me sending Dash to the moon?

00:03:00.260 --> 00:03:03.880
I am tryin' to poop why are ya facin' me with moral conundrums?

00:03:03.880 --> 00:03:05.880
Do you disapprove or not?

00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:08.460
Oh my God, of course I don't approve!

00:03:08.460 --> 00:03:12.360
As soon as I get out of here I got a lotta questions AND I might just kick your ass!

00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:13.000
Perfect!

00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:14.200
Spike, take a letter!

00:03:14.200 --> 00:03:19.160
Sometimes your friends know best, and you should consult with them before taking rash action.

00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:20.900
So...

00:03:20.900 --> 00:03:22.460
you think she'll buy it or...

00:03:22.460 --> 00:03:26.040
I don't see why we had to go through this if you foresaw the obvious result.

00:03:26.180 --> 00:03:26.680
*urp*

00:03:27.780 --> 00:03:30.900
"Find someone to write less insipid reports."

00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:33.180
Dash!

00:03:33.740 --> 00:03:35.260
How would you like some spaghetti?

00:03:35.500 --> 00:03:37.420
D'aaaw, I missed you too bud!

00:03:38.200 --> 00:03:39.340
Okay, so

00:03:39.340 --> 00:03:40.860
Let's do one, where,

00:03:40.860 --> 00:03:44.040
Luna dreams up an evil monster that wants to destroy Equestria.

00:03:44.040 --> 00:03:46.480
I thought, like,
Isn't she reformed or somethin?

00:03:46.580 --> 00:03:47.080
Uh.

00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:51.060
She makes monster to remind her to feel guilty about when she was Nightmare Moon.

00:03:51.060 --> 00:03:51.560
*groan*

00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.740
If it exists to make Luna feel guilty about being Nightmare Moon, why does it attack Ponyville?

00:03:55.900 --> 00:03:57.260
It feeds on sins!

00:03:57.640 --> 00:03:58.800
Cause we all have those...

00:03:59.440 --> 00:04:02.020
Twi: No that just sounds like Luna's trying to destroy Equestria

00:04:02.220 --> 00:04:02.820
Dash: Ok, uh..

00:04:03.060 --> 00:04:06.960
Alright, what if we have one where we do like a race with like pine derby racecars,

00:04:07.140 --> 00:04:07.640
and...

00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:10.140
I go too fast and then AJ goes too slow,

00:04:10.140 --> 00:04:11.060
and we crash!

00:04:11.340 --> 00:04:11.940
Twi: What's a racecar?

00:04:11.940 --> 00:04:17.280
Dash: And the moral, is that, you should always meet halfway except during a race cause then it's just a car accident.

00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:20.580
AJ: Sugar how do we crash if I'm going too slow and your goin too fast?

00:04:20.580 --> 00:04:21.560
Won't you just be ahead of me?

00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:25.000
Dash: No cause, the track is built like one of those, uh hot wheels, cars...

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:26.740
AJ: The ones where y-you go around in a figure 8.

00:04:26.740 --> 00:04:28.620
You mean the ones that're built for crashin?

00:04:28.620 --> 00:04:29.780
Dash: Yeah those are friggin awesome!

00:04:29.780 --> 00:04:30.680
Twi: I don't think that's going to work...

00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:34.840
Dash: Ok! H-how about, what if we do one where, uh t-the kids get their cutie marks...

00:04:35.300 --> 00:04:37.120
an-and ha-for havin cutie marks.

00:04:37.280 --> 00:04:39.080
Twi: How does that work? That some kinda paradoxical...

00:04:39.080 --> 00:04:43.100
Dash: Well! I-its-a a they-they get them for understanding what cutiemarks are for!

00:04:43.380 --> 00:04:45.780
Twi: They're, for, exactly what's printed on your butt.

00:04:45.780 --> 00:04:49.580
Dash: A-nd thats... but... th-thats, then they realise their cutiemarks aren't very good!

00:04:49.820 --> 00:04:51.500
AJ: Well now that idea's just depressin.

00:04:51.500 --> 00:04:52.680
Dash: I-no-wuh-ok so then... uh...

00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:57.080
like, a griffin comes, to, ponyville because she wants a cutie mark but she can't have them!

00:04:57.080 --> 00:04:59.360
Twi: That sounds like your trying to salvage a bad idea.

00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:01.620
Dash: Look they have to get their cutie marks in something!

00:05:01.620 --> 00:05:06.040
AJ: Yeah probly like, engineerin or somethin, that's like a later in life type of cutie mark and a good one too.

00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:08.240
Dash: Well-I-don'-we don't have time to wait for them to grow-o-ok...

00:05:08.460 --> 00:05:10.560
How bout, Rarity opens a boutique in Canterlot-

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:15.500
Twi: Retail space in Canterlot main street costs 2,000 bits per square foot.

00:05:15.980 --> 00:05:16.580
Dash: What?!

00:05:16.780 --> 00:05:22.020
Twi: Yeah, Rarity's not going to be able to afford to open a boutique in Canterlot, ever, don't tell her that, it'll make her mad.

00:05:22.020 --> 00:05:23.780
Dash: Ok.. Uh.. How bout this:

00:05:23.780 --> 00:05:28.300
A magic eating monster gets loose and it goes to Canterlot to suck up all the magic

00:05:28.300 --> 00:05:28.960
and it eats the alicorns-

00:05:28.960 --> 00:05:34.060
Twi: Celestia lays out a series of traps that are triggered if the magical wards sealing them is broken

00:05:34.060 --> 00:05:36.820
which does happen because the magical monster eats magic.

00:05:37.200 --> 00:05:41.740
Yeah, there's a monster in Tartarus named Tirek that does exactly that, it eats magic...

00:05:42.100 --> 00:05:44.800
And, uh, Celestia's had him in prison down there for centuries.

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:46.800
She's got this planned out for ages.

00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:48.140
Dash: Aw man really?

00:05:48.140 --> 00:05:52.280
Twi: Yeah how dumb would she have to be to not have a plan for a creature that's been in prison for centuries

00:05:52.280 --> 00:05:53.680
and she's the one who imprisoned it.

00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:56.420
Dash: I thought you would just, like
abdicate the throne.

00:05:56.660 --> 00:06:00.420
My story was going to involve her giving you all the magic and then you were gonna fight Tirek.

00:06:00.740 --> 00:06:05.140
Twi: Let's, just, steer away from telling Celestia stories about times she was defeated by things.

00:06:05.300 --> 00:06:07.680
Dash: Ok, let's say that we, met a changeling,

00:06:07.880 --> 00:06:11.320
and we found out that they don't actually have to eat love and if they don't eat love

00:06:11.620 --> 00:06:13.220
they turn into bug princes!

00:06:13.220 --> 00:06:15.280
AJ: H-how come they ate love in the first place then?

00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:16.160
Dash: *breath*

00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:20.260
Caaaaaaaause... theeeey're... evil queeeeen....

00:06:20.520 --> 00:06:23.120
made them all eat love, and thaaat,

00:06:23.440 --> 00:06:24.440
wh-uhhhh...

00:06:24.760 --> 00:06:26.040
Twi: Why would she make them eat love?

00:06:26.200 --> 00:06:29.540
If she wanted to be more powerful then she would become a bug prince right?

00:06:29.540 --> 00:06:31.960
Dash: Y-eah yeah I guess that one doesn't make a lot of sense

00:06:31.960 --> 00:06:32.900
Ok! Uhm...

00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:36.760
What if a magical alicorn baby is born in a far away land and-

00:06:36.760 --> 00:06:40.040
Twi: Alright, that's enough. I'm goin outside for a while.
