belong here either.
184
00:07:57,243 --> 00:07:58,810
WHEEEE!
185
00:08:04,083 --> 00:08:06,551
[Twilight] So apparently,
finding Rockhoof a new job
186
00:08:06,586 --> 00:08:08,553
is a lot harder than we thought.
187
00:08:08,588 --> 00:08:10,622
Has anypony had any luck?
188
00:08:10,657 --> 00:08:12,891
Uh uh. Nope.
189
00:08:15,895 --> 00:08:18,563
I thought you were gonna try
him out at the post office.
190
00:08:18,598 --> 00:08:19,264
We did.
191
00:08:21,134 --> 00:08:25,036
Do you know where I can
find Cranky Doodle Donkey?
192
00:08:25,071 --> 00:08:27,238
I need to deliver his medicine!
193
00:08:27,273 --> 00:08:30,876
He has a rash in a very
embarrassing place!
194
00:08:38,251 --> 00:08:41,152
[shudder] I did not
need to hear that.
195
00:08:41,187 --> 00:08:44,289
Yep! Rockhoof's time
as a spa masseuse
196
00:08:44,324 --> 00:08:45,991
didn't work out either.
197
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,162
Now just let me know if
this is too much pressure.
198
00:08:51,197 --> 00:08:53,999
[shriek of pain]
199
00:08:56,035 --> 00:08:59,203
Well, at least Rockhoof's
really strong.
200
00:08:59,238 --> 00:09:02,907
Maybe we could find him a
job carrying heavy stuff?
201
00:09:02,942 --> 00:09:04,576
I tried that already.
202
00:09:04,611 --> 00:09:07,546
Zecora needed somepony to
help her get supplies, but...
203
00:09:09,816 --> 00:09:11,182
[knocking]
204
00:09:11,217 --> 00:09:13,918
I know you said you only
needed a few leaves,
205
00:09:13,953 --> 00:09:15,820
but I figured why not
bring you the whole thing?
206
00:09:15,855 --> 00:09:18,823
[buzzing]
207
00:09:21,728 --> 00:09:23,328
Oh, how horrid.
208
00:09:23,363 --> 00:09:25,730
None of the other Pillars
seem to be having trouble
209
00:09:25,765 --> 00:09:27,899
fitting in to the modern world.
210
00:09:27,934 --> 00:09:30,768
Then maybe they can show
Rockhoof how they did it.
211
00:09:30,803 --> 00:09:33,104
Get him used to
livin' in this time.
212
00:09:33,139 --> 00:09:34,072
Great idea!
213
00:09:34,107 --> 00:09:36,674
Rockhoof's old friends
would be happy to help.
214
00:09:36,709 --> 00:09:38,209
And I bet he'd
love to visit them.
215
00:09:42,382 --> 00:09:44,148
Hmph.
216
00:09:44,183 --> 00:09:47,185
Even Canterlot looks
different from the old days.
217
00:09:47,220 --> 00:09:50,888
Aw, I'm sure once you see
your ol' pal Flash Magnus,
218
00:09:50,923 --> 00:09:52,890
you'll feel right at home.
219
00:09:52,925 --> 00:09:56,794
Trot, 2, 3, 4!
Trot, 2, 3, 4!
220
00:09:56,829 --> 00:09:58,964
Keep it lively, rookies!
221
00:10:00,733 --> 00:10:02,233
Visitors on site!
222
00:10:02,268 --> 00:10:03,802
Company, halt!
223
00:10:06,873 --> 00:10:09,707
Rockhoof, you old
ditch-digger you!
224
00:10:09,742 --> 00:10:12,910
Flash Magnus, as I
live and breathe!
225
00:10:12,945 --> 00:10:14,779
Is this your squadron?
226
00:10:14,814 --> 00:10:17,815
After we got out of limbo, I
went looking for work for a pony
227
00:10:17,850 --> 00:10:19,917
with experience in
the Royal Legion.
228
00:10:19,952 --> 00:10:22,420
Once a soldier,
always a soldier.
229
00:10:22,455 --> 00:10:24,922
Princess Celestia was happy to
find a new drill sergeant
230
00:10:24,957 --> 00:10:26,791
for her Guard!
231
00:10:26,826 --> 00:10:29,127
That's great.
232
00:10:29,162 --> 00:10:33,197
She really put you in a
job that big... so soon?
233
00:10:33,232 --> 00:10:34,932
Oh, this is nothing.
234
00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:36,868
You should see what
Mistmane is up to.
235
00:10:40,773 --> 00:10:43,107
They made you the Royal
Landscape Artist
236
00:10:43,142 --> 00:10:45,043
for the Crystal Empire?
237
00:10:45,078 --> 00:10:46,010
Wow.
238
00:10:46,045 --> 00:10:48,146
Your work is
beautiful.
239
00:10:48,181 --> 00:10:49,947
Thank you.
240
00:10:49,982 --> 00:10:52,350
I've never worked
with crystal before,
241
00:10:52,385 --> 00:10:57,055
but in my heart, I know
I'm where I belong.
242
00:10:57,090 --> 00:10:59,857
You always could find
the beauty in things.
243
00:10:59,892 --> 00:11:04,095
But there's not much demand for
shovel ponies like me nowadays.
244
00:11:04,831 --> 00:11:06,731
Don't give up hope!
245
00:11:06,766 --> 00:11:08,766
See Somnambula.
246
00:11:08,801 --> 00:11:11,202
She'll help you
find your purpose.
247
00:11:14,140 --> 00:11:16,340
Somnambula's a
motivational speaker.
248
00:11:16,375 --> 00:11:19,077
Bet they didn't even have
those back in your time.
249
00:11:19,112 --> 00:11:20,945
Because we didn't
need them.
250
00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:23,114
Ponies knew what to
do with their lives.
251
00:11:23,149 --> 00:11:29,854
Focus on my voice, and feel
yourself unlock your potential.
252
00:11:29,889 --> 00:11:32,957
[deep inhale and exhale]
253
00:11:38,030 --> 00:11:43,768
Imagine everything that
troubles you as one big cloud.
254
00:11:43,803 --> 00:11:47,338
Now let it float away.
255
00:11:47,373 --> 00:11:49,140
You are relaxed.
256
00:11:49,175 --> 00:11:53,344
Free to do anything you wish.
257
00:11:53,379 --> 00:11:58,950
[loud snoring]
258
00:11:58,985 --> 00:12:00,385
Guess he wished he
could take a nap?
259
00:12:03,122 --> 00:12:04,422
[Rockhoof] Mage Meadowbrook!
260
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:07,859
Your home looks just the
same as the old days.
261
00:12:07,894 --> 00:12:09,827
Wish I could say
the same for mine.
262
00:12:09,862 --> 00:12:13,264
Well, I've had to
expand my clinic a bit.
263
00:12:13,299 --> 00:12:17,101
Many creatures need healing
in this modern world.
264
00:12:17,136 --> 00:12:20,505
Oh! Looks like you
could use some too.
265
00:12:20,540 --> 00:12:22,974
What's got you
heartsick, Rockhoof?
266
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:29,080
Thing is, I can't do
my old job like Flash.
267
00:12:29,115 --> 00:12:31,082
Or adapt like Mistmane.
268
00:12:31,117 --> 00:12:33,818
Or succeed at something
new like Somnambula.
269
00:12:33,853 --> 00:12:36,354
Or go home, like you.
270
00:12:36,389 --> 00:12:37,355
Give it time.
271
00:12:37,390 --> 00:12:40,992
Even Starswirl's still
learning about friendship.
272
00:12:41,027 --> 00:12:42,260
[Applejack] Yeah!
273
00:12:42,295 --> 00:12:45,229
And I bet Stygian took
plenty of time to fit in.
274
00:12:45,264 --> 00:12:47,198
[Twilight] Hey,
look what I found!
275
00:12:47,233 --> 00:12:49,801
"Me and My Shadow,"
the third hit novel
276
00:12:49,836 --> 00:12:51,869
by former villain Stygian.
277
00:12:51,904 --> 00:12:54,338
I'm impressed! He's
really thriving!
278
00:12:54,373 --> 00:12:56,574
[moan]
279
00:12:56,609 --> 00:12:58,843
Rockhoof? Where are
you going?
280
00:12:58,878 --> 00:12:59,911
I'm not sure.
281
00:12:59,946 --> 00:13:03,114
Maybe I just don't belong
in this modern world.
282
00:13:05,518 --> 00:13:08,352
Now this here is a
right mash of apples.
283
00:13:08,387 --> 00:13:10,822
'Stead of solving
Rockhoof's problem,
284
00:13:10,857 --> 00:13:12,990
we made him feel even worse.
285
00:13:13,025 --> 00:13:15,226
I'll tell you the
real problem here!
286
00:13:15,261 --> 00:13:19,263
We haven't given Rockhoof the
chance to be who he really is.
287
00:13:19,298 --> 00:13:22,300
A pony with a metal shovel
and a heart of gold?
288
00:13:22,335 --> 00:13:24,335
A hero!
289
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:28,873
What we need to do is find him
a job that's as epic as he is!
290
00:13:28,908 --> 00:13:33,044
Hm. I might know
just the thing...
291
00:13:34,580 --> 00:13:37,448
I'm honored to serve
in the Hippogriff Navy,
292
00:13:37,483 --> 00:13:39,016
General Seaspray.
293
00:13:39,051 --> 00:13:41,286
I promise I'll prove my worth.
294
00:13:42,154 --> 00:13:43,588
Think nothing of it.
295
00:13:43,623 --> 00:13:47,191
I know how hard it is
to adapt to a new home.
296
00:13:47,226 --> 00:13:49,994
After our many years
below the waves,
297
00:13:50,029 --> 00:13:53,364
land customs seemed strange.
298
00:13:53,399 --> 00:13:56,400
Like you didn't fit in, no
matter how hard you tried?
299
00:13:56,435 --> 00:13:59,637
As though the world had
moved on without us.
300
00:13:59,672 --> 00:14:01,405
Never fear, Rockhoof.
301
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:08,112
We shall be as brothers in this
bright future above the waves.
302
00:14:08,147 --> 00:14:11,082
Uh, why do the
Hippogriffs need ships
303
00:14:11,117 --> 00:14:13,084
if they can turn
into seaponies?
304
00:14:13,119 --> 00:14:14,919
Maybe they just like cruises?
305
00:14:14,954 --> 00:14:16,053
General!
306
00:14:16,089 --> 00:14:19,023
The fog's too thick to see
our way out of the harbor!
307
00:14:19,058 --> 00:14:21,592
[rushing water]
308
00:14:21,627 --> 00:14:24,195
Heave to, swabbies!
309
00:14:24,230 --> 00:14:29,400
Halt the ship and hold
her till the fog passes!
310
00:14:29,435 --> 00:14:30,601
Wait, General!
311
00:14:30,636 --> 00:14:33,337
We can navigate the same way
my Coltic ancestors traveled
312
00:14:33,372 --> 00:14:37,642
through the Selkie Mists!
We'll look to the stars!
313
00:14:37,677 --> 00:14:39,377
There in the
northwest sky
314
00:14:39,412 --> 00:14:42,346
is the constellation
for O'Bridle's Pelt!
315
00:14:42,381 --> 00:14:44,949
Steer the ship toward that!
316
00:14:44,984 --> 00:14:46,617
You heard the pony, crew!
317
00:14:46,652 --> 00:14:48,253
Make full sail!
318
00:14:52,425 --> 00:14:55,927
Yeehaw! Rockhoof did it!
319
00:14:55,962 --> 00:14:57,194
[smash]
320
00:14:57,229 --> 00:14:59,363
But... I don't understand!
321
00:14:59,398 --> 00:15:02,233
The stars have always
steered me true!
322
00:15:02,268 --> 00:15:05,303
Oh, no. Stars can move
slowly over time.
323
00:15:05,338 --> 00:15:08,572
They must look different now
than over a thousand years ago.
324
00:15:08,607 --> 00:15:12,243
It was an honor serving
with you, Rockhoof.
325
00:15:12,278 --> 00:15:16,915
But it seems our paths lie
in different directions.
326
00:15:22,421 --> 00:15:24,355
Hey,
mistakes happen.
327
00:15:24,390 --> 00:15:26,991
We'll think of something
else for you to do!
328
00:15:27,026 --> 00:15:29,260
Oh, there's no need, lass.
329
00:15:29,295 --> 00:15:31,495
I already know what
I want to do next.
330
00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:33,130
Really? What?
331
00:15:33,165 --> 00:15:35,266
I heard there's a
statue spell
332
00:15:35,301 --> 00:15:38,102
that sends creatures
into stone sleep.
333
00:15:38,137 --> 00:15:40,104
I want you to cast it.
334
00:15:40,139 --> 00:15:41,739
On me.
335
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:43,141
[gasp]
336
00:15:47,613 --> 00:15:48,512
[Twilight] No!
337
00:15:48,547 --> 00:15:49,380
[Rockhoof] Yes!
338
00:15:49,415 --> 00:15:50,614
-No!
-Aye!
339
00:15:50,649 --> 00:15:52,416
[groan]
340
00:15:52,451 --> 00:15:53,317
No!
341
00:15:53,352 --> 00:15:54,251
AYE!
342
00:15:54,286 --> 00:15:55,386
Hey guys.
343
00:15:55,421 --> 00:15:57,455
Need me to help you
decide something?
344
00:15:58,557 --> 00:16:01,993
Rockhoof wants me to cast a
spell to turn him into a statue.
345
00:16:02,028 --> 00:16:03,627
The answer is no.
346
00:16:03,662 --> 00:16:07,098
Well, it should be aye, because
I wouldn't even be here
347
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:08,632
to be turned into a statue
348
00:16:08,667 --> 00:16:11,569
if Twilight hadn't cast a
spell in the first place!
349
00:16:11,604 --> 00:16:12,737
[stomp]
350
00:16:12,772 --> 00:16:16,507
Whoa. I thought you were
arguing over ice cream flavors.
351
00:16:16,542 --> 00:16:18,376
The answer is still no!
352
00:16:18,411 --> 00:16:20,778
Why would you want to
be turned into stone?
353
00:16:20,813 --> 00:16:23,714
Because I'm a relic
of a bygone age.
354
00:16:23,749 --> 00:16:25,349
I belong in a museum.
355
00:16:25,384 --> 00:16:26,350
Safe.
356
00:16:26,385 --> 00:16:27,351
Preserved.
357
00:16:27,386 --> 00:16:29,053
Untouched.
358
00:16:29,088 --> 00:16:30,755
I don't belong in this time.
359
00:16:30,790 --> 00:16:33,090
It's up to you to
make that right.
360
00:16:33,125 --> 00:16:35,059
But there has to
be a better way!
361
00:16:35,094 --> 00:16:37,194
Twilight, please understand.
362
00:16:37,229 --> 00:16:39,764
I want to be remembered
as the hero I was.
363
00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:42,133
Not the disappointment
I've become.
364
00:16:42,168 --> 00:16:43,534
But you're not!
365
00:16:43,569 --> 00:16:45,136
Rockhoof, wait!
366
00:16:46,105 --> 00:16:49,273
Spike, can you teach
my class today?
367
00:16:49,308 --> 00:16:52,076
You're not really going to
turn him to stone, are you?
368
00:16:52,111 --> 00:16:53,811
Only because it's temporary.
369
00:16:53,846 --> 00:16:55,679
As soon as I think
of a new solution,
370
00:16:55,714 --> 00:16:57,381
we'll wake Rockhoof up.
371
00:16:57,416 --> 00:17:01,085
I KNOW he has more to offer the
world as a pony than a statue.
372
00:17:02,621 --> 00:17:05,256
Did you hear Rockhoof caught all
the bees in the Everfree Forest,
373
00:17:05,291 --> 00:17:06,757
and gave 'em to
Zecora as a gift?
374
00:17:06,792 --> 00:17:10,127
Wow! Terramar said Rockhoof
called down the stars
375
00:17:10,162 --> 00:17:12,463
and sunk the whole
Hippogriff navy!
376
00:17:12,498 --> 00:17:15,399
He's definitely weird.
But in a fun way.
377
00:17:15,434 --> 00:17:18,102
You never know what's
gonna happen next with him.
378
00:17:18,137 --> 00:17:20,738
Professor Rockhoof best pony!
379
00:17:20,773 --> 00:17:22,573
Hey, class.
380
00:17:22,608 --> 00:17:25,476
Welcome to the Theory and
Defense of Friendship.
381
00:17:25,511 --> 00:17:26,544
Another sub?
382
00:17:26,579 --> 00:17:29,346
Let me start by telling
you we don't get homework,
383
00:17:29,381 --> 00:17:32,149
and we only do field trips.
384
00:17:32,184 --> 00:17:33,684
Yeah, nice try.
385
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:36,220
Twilight sent me to tell
you she won't be in today
386
00:17:36,255 --> 00:17:38,689
'cause she has to cast a stone
sleep spell on Rockhoof.
387
00:17:38,724 --> 00:17:40,324
[gasp]
388
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,326
Like Discord? But why?
389
00:17:42,361 --> 00:17:44,162
Rockhoof isn't a bad guy.
390
00:17:46,432 --> 00:17:49,133
Your instructions are
to write an essay on
391
00:17:49,168 --> 00:17:50,868
"Heroism: And What It
Means To You."
392
00:17:50,903 --> 00:17:53,137
No!
393
00:17:53,172 --> 00:17:54,171
Oh, don't worry.
394
00:17:54,206 --> 00:17:55,706
It doesn't have to
be a long essay.
395
00:17:57,843 --> 00:18:00,211
Maybe like this?
396
00:18:00,246 --> 00:18:02,546
Or on three legs... Hmm.
397
00:18:02,581 --> 00:18:06,851
What will give the wee birds
fewer places to uh, decorate?
398
00:18:06,886 --> 00:18:08,419
Professor Rockhoof!
399
00:18:08,454 --> 00:18:10,788
Dragon said you want
to turn into stone!
400
00:18:12,358 --> 00:18:14,258
Yona not believe it!
401
00:18:14,293 --> 00:18:17,528
Aye, I'm afraid it's true, lass.
402
00:18:17,563 --> 00:18:21,732
But... Pony need finish
Ursa Major story for class!
403
00:18:21,767 --> 00:18:25,169
It's sweet of you to try
to get me to stay, Yona.
404
00:18:25,204 --> 00:18:28,672
But... I'm afraid old
stories like mine
405
00:18:28,707 --> 00:18:32,143
aren't worth anything
in this day and age.
406
00:18:32,178 --> 00:18:35,146
Fine! If Pony no want
tell Yona story,
407
00:18:35,181 --> 00:18:37,248
then Yona tell Pony story!
408
00:18:39,752 --> 00:18:41,218
From class report!
409
00:18:41,253 --> 00:18:44,288
"When Yona come to Pony
school, Yona not fit in.
410
00:18:44,323 --> 00:18:46,157
Pony ways strange.
411
00:18:46,192 --> 00:18:47,925
But Yona find friends!
412
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,561
Yona meet Professor Rockhoof.
413
00:18:50,596 --> 00:18:53,631
Pony brave and strong as Yak!
414
00:18:53,666 --> 00:18:56,167
Not afraid! Hero!"
415
00:18:56,202 --> 00:18:57,568
When Yona grow up,
416
00:18:57,603 --> 00:19:01,705
Yona want to be just like
Professor Rockhoof."
417
00:19:01,740 --> 00:19:04,675
Well. Since you went
to the trouble
418
00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:07,912
of writing something
that nice, I suppose
419
00:19:07,947 --> 00:19:10,781
the least I could do is tell
you the rest of the story.
420
00:19:13,586 --> 00:19:16,754
Yona tell whole school
Rockhoof is best.
421
00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:18,723
Now all want to hear story.
422
00:19:21,694 --> 00:19:23,594
OK. I have the spell,
423
00:19:23,629 --> 00:19:26,530
but will you please
reconsider. Rockhoof?
424
00:19:26,565 --> 00:19:29,700
The Ursa Major tried to
grab me by the gullet!
425
00:19:29,735 --> 00:19:30,968
But I ducked her claws!
426
00:19:31,003 --> 00:19:32,737
[gasps]
427
00:19:34,873 --> 00:19:36,340
She had me cornered.
428
00:19:36,375 --> 00:19:38,743
So I look at her..
she looks at me.
429
00:19:41,247 --> 00:19:46,283
And I say, "Sorry you won't be
having any dinner tonight, lass!
430
00:19:46,318 --> 00:19:49,220
Guess you'll just have
to grin and bear it!"
431
00:19:49,255 --> 00:19:50,788
[laughter]
432
00:19:50,823 --> 00:19:55,559
And then I tossed her away with
my shovel, high into the sky.
433
00:19:55,594 --> 00:19:59,396
And she's been a constellation
up there ever since.
434
00:19:59,431 --> 00:20:00,965
Or so I'm told.
435
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,667
And that's the end of my story.
436
00:20:03,702 --> 00:20:07,905
One more story!
One more story!
437
00:20:07,940 --> 00:20:10,307
No no. Thank you
for listening.
438
00:20:10,342 --> 00:20:11,909
But it's time to say good-bye.
439
00:20:13,646 --> 00:20:14,879
Wait.
440
00:20:14,914 --> 00:20:17,615
You said there wasn't anything
in this time you were good at.
441
00:20:17,650 --> 00:20:19,784
What about telling stories?
442
00:20:21,487 --> 00:20:23,854
It was just a tall tale...
443
00:20:23,889 --> 00:20:26,323
One that captured the
hearts and imagination
444
00:20:26,358 --> 00:20:28,525
of everycreature here.
445
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,495
Plus pony story super fun!
446
00:20:31,530 --> 00:20:34,665
[cheers]
447
00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:37,701
As the Princess of Friendship,
I'd like to appoint you
448
00:20:37,736 --> 00:20:41,672
as Equestria's official
Keeper of Tales.
449
00:20:41,707 --> 00:20:42,840
Can you do that?
450
00:20:42,875 --> 00:20:44,675
[shrug sound]
451
00:20:44,710 --> 00:20:47,711
[Rockhoof] I uh, that's
very kind of you.
452
00:20:47,746 --> 00:20:50,581
But I still think these old
bones are more suited
453
00:20:50,616 --> 00:20:52,650
to a museum display.
454
00:20:52,685 --> 00:20:55,486
You are a living
record of our history.
455
00:20:55,521 --> 00:20:58,956
Your stories can inspire and
teach generations to come.
456
00:20:58,991 --> 00:21:02,326
If you're a statue,
that's all lost.
457
00:21:02,361 --> 00:21:05,829
But will I ever really
belong in your world?
458
00:21:05,864 --> 00:21:07,498
Rockhoof Yona's friend.
459
00:21:07,533 --> 00:21:09,800
So Rockhoof belongs.
460
00:21:09,835 --> 00:21:14,972
You know, that reminds
me of another story...
461
00:21:15,007 --> 00:21:20,544
Once there was a small Yak that
knew more than a great hero.
462
00:21:20,579 --> 00:21:23,847
Hey, don't forget the
dragons in this one!
463
00:21:23,882 --> 00:21:25,382
Aye, there were dragons.
464
00:21:25,417 --> 00:21:27,051
And ponies.
465
00:21:27,086 --> 00:21:29,386
And plenty of hippogriffs.
466
00:21:29,421 --> 00:21:32,023
Plus a changeling and
a griffon that flew...
