00:00:03,709 --> 00:00:05,667
Today we have two
special guests

3
00:00:05,709 --> 00:00:07,917
with a very special
announcement.

4
00:00:07,959 --> 00:00:11,333
Everypony, welcome the Head
of the Equestria Games,

5
00:00:11,375 --> 00:00:13,000
Ms. Harshwhinny.

6
00:00:13,041 --> 00:00:14,041
(door opens)

7
00:00:17,458 --> 00:00:19,000
Thank you.

8
00:00:19,041 --> 00:00:23,500
Now I'm sure you all
know about the Equestria Games,

9
00:00:23,542 --> 00:00:26,667
where ponies from all over
the land compete for glory

10
00:00:26,709 --> 00:00:28,625
in various athletic pursuits?

11
00:00:30,166 --> 00:00:34,083
Well, now you littlest ones will
have the chance to compete

12
00:00:34,125 --> 00:00:37,375
for a weighty responsibility
of your very own.

13
00:00:37,417 --> 00:00:39,834
Rainbow Dash: Oh, c'mon!
Tell them the fun part!

14
00:00:39,875 --> 00:00:42,375
(whoosh)

15
00:00:42,417 --> 00:00:45,583
(Ooh and aah from the others)

16
00:00:45,625 --> 00:00:46,959
That's right!

17
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,375
All you gotta do is show
Ms. Harshwhinny the coolest,

18
00:00:49,417 --> 00:00:52,083
most spectacular,
most rockin' routine

19
00:00:52,125 --> 00:00:54,166
and you're goin' to
the Games!

So, who's gonna be
the lucky ponies?

21
00:00:57,041 --> 00:00:58,875
It's got to be me.

22
00:00:58,917 --> 00:01:00,458
Maybe it's me.

23

00:01:53,333 --> 00:01:56,208
the Ponyville flag at
the Equestria Games!

47
00:01:56,250 --> 00:01:58,917
Oh, you are gonna LOVE this!

48
00:01:58,959 --> 00:02:00,291
Ms. Harshwinny: Miss Dash!

49
00:02:00,333 --> 00:02:04,375
Will you please curb
your overenthusiastic outbursts!

50
00:02:04,417 --> 00:02:08,083
Now then, let me be
clear on the rules.

51
00:02:08,125 --> 00:02:10,542
You ponies will form teams.

52
00:02:10,583 --> 00:02:14,041
Each team will create
their own flag-carrying routine.

53
00:02:14,083 --> 00:02:19,000
Everypony will be judged on
grace, style, and originality.

54
00:02:19,041 --> 00:02:21,291
There's a most complicated
scoring system,

55
00:02:21,333 --> 00:02:24,417
which I will elaborate
upon now. Firstly...

56
00:02:24,458 --> 00:02:26,750
Aw, Get to the
nitty gritty later.

57
00:02:26,792 --> 00:02:30,291
Tell them the important
stuff: like who's the coach?

58
00:02:30,333 --> 00:02:31,542
(whistle blast)

59
00:02:31,583 --> 00:02:33,750
That's right: ME!

60
00:02:33,792 --> 00:02:36,875
And you know why I'm
qualified to coach you?

61
00:02:36,917 --> 00:02:39,291
Guess who carried the
Cloudsdale flag in the Games

62
00:02:39,333 --> 00:02:41,083
when she was a little filly.

63
00:02:41,125 --> 00:02:42,750
ME!

64
00:02:42,792 --> 00:02:44,375
I'll never forget it.

65
00:02:44,417 --> 00:02:46,166
I burst into the stadium...

66
00:02:46,208 --> 00:02:50,000
spreading my wings,
the flag flapping in the breeze!

67
00:02:50,041 --> 00:02:52,375
I did tricks with that
flag the likes of which

68
00:02:52,417 --> 00:02:56,583
no pony saw before,
and no pony's seen since!

69
00:02:59,333 --> 00:03:02,875
Professionalism, Ms. Dash,
I must insist.

70
00:03:02,917 --> 00:03:05,709
If you want to keep your job
as coach of these ponies,

71
00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:08,542
you must maintain a
professional attitude

72
00:03:08,583 --> 00:03:10,709
and keep your
emotions in check!

73
00:03:10,750 --> 00:03:15,041
Am I making myself absolutely,
100% crystal clear?

74
00:03:16,917 --> 00:03:18,125
Yes, Ms. Harshwhinny.

75
00:03:18,166 --> 00:03:20,959
You know, professionalism
is my middle name.

76
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,458
Rainbow
"Professionalism" Dash.

77
00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:26,083
Hmph! Well, in
three days' time,

78
00:03:26,125 --> 00:03:31,667
Ms. Dash will accompany anypony
competing to the Crystal Empire

79
00:03:31,709 --> 00:03:34,000
where you will demonstrate
your routines for me

80
00:03:34,041 --> 00:03:35,667
and the other judges.

81
00:03:35,709 --> 00:03:39,041
Who will judge you
very professionally.

82
00:03:40,291 --> 00:03:43,959
Ahem! Yes, quite,
quite correct!

83
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,875
In the meantime, get
ready to train and train hard!

84
00:03:47,917 --> 00:03:51,291
Because I know this Opening
Ceremony is the single most

85
00:03:51,333 --> 00:03:55,000
important thing that will ever
happen in your young lives.

86
00:03:55,041 --> 00:03:57,583
But I know you're up
for the challenge!

87
00:03:57,625 --> 00:03:59,000
And so am I!

88
00:03:59,041 --> 00:04:02,333
WA-WAHOOOO-(cuts short)

89
00:04:02,375 --> 00:04:03,917
AHEM!

90
00:04:03,959 --> 00:04:07,041
Meet me after school tomorrow
at 15-hundred hours, sharp.

91
00:04:07,083 --> 00:04:09,667
And show me
your flag-carrying skills.

92
00:04:09,709 --> 00:04:11,041
I am outta here!

93
00:04:11,083 --> 00:04:12,834
(skid)

94
00:04:12,875 --> 00:04:14,083
Professionally!

95
00:04:14,125 --> 00:04:15,875
See how professionally?

96
00:04:15,917 --> 00:04:17,333
(groan)

97
00:04:17,375 --> 00:04:19,959
Ponies, the most
important thing is this:

98
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,166
your routine needs to show
what your town means to you.

99
00:04:23,208 --> 00:04:25,709
So do Ponyville proud!

100
00:04:25,750 --> 00:04:28,917
Work hard. Be bold. Wow me.

101
00:04:30,250 --> 00:04:31,250
That is all.

102
00:04:31,291 --> 00:04:32,625
(bell rings)

103
00:04:32,667 --> 00:04:35,834
(excited shouts)

104
00:04:35,875 --> 00:04:38,083
So what do you say we come
up with the perfect routine

105
00:04:38,125 --> 00:04:39,250
and win this thing?

106
00:04:39,291 --> 00:04:41,583
I'd say that's rootin'
tootin' terrific!

107
00:04:41,625 --> 00:04:43,166
But there's one problem!

108
00:04:43,208 --> 00:04:46,500
I bet everypony in class
is planning to compete.

109
00:04:46,542 --> 00:04:50,583
Listen: somepony in our class
is gonna carry that flag.

110
00:04:50,625 --> 00:04:52,125
So it might as well be us!

111
00:04:52,166 --> 00:04:54,583
Crusaders, are you in,
or are you in?

112
00:04:54,625 --> 00:04:55,959
Cause I'M in.

113
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,000
Me too!

114
00:04:58,083 --> 00:04:59,208
Me three!

115
00:04:59,250 --> 00:05:01,083
All right, the winning
routine needs to show

116
00:05:01,125 --> 00:05:03,125
what's important about
Ponyville, right?

117
00:05:03,166 --> 00:05:04,375
Both: Right!

118
00:05:04,417 --> 00:05:07,166
So what's special
about Ponyville?

119
00:05:07,208 --> 00:05:09,083
It's...It's...

120
00:05:12,583 --> 00:05:13,834
I've got it!

121
00:05:13,875 --> 00:05:15,417
It's a place where
different kinds of ponies

122
00:05:15,458 --> 00:05:17,375
live together as friends.

123
00:05:17,417 --> 00:05:19,166
Earth Ponies, like me!

124
00:05:19,208 --> 00:05:21,000
Unicorns, like me!

125
00:05:21,041 --> 00:05:22,917
And Pegasi, like me!

126
00:05:22,959 --> 00:05:26,125
So somehow we gotta figure out
a way to show that in our act.

127
00:05:26,166 --> 00:05:27,583
We're gonna
need a plan.

128
00:05:27,625 --> 00:05:29,417
And a lotta
hard work.

129
00:05:29,458 --> 00:05:31,458
And a whole bunch
of practice.

130
00:05:31,500 --> 00:05:34,500
But take it from me: We
may just be little ponies,

131
00:05:34,542 --> 00:05:38,041

Oof!

If that's the best you've got,
we're going to win for sure!

167
00:07:48,625 --> 00:07:52,458
We already have the most
divine routine planned.

168
00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:54,709
It's absolutely
sure to crush everyone else.

169
00:07:54,750 --> 00:07:57,583
And I mean CRUSH!

170
00:07:57,625 --> 00:08:00,834
But we're winners,
and we have heaaaarts...

171
00:08:00,875 --> 00:08:04,500
Sure, but you know
what you don't have?

172
00:08:04,542 --> 00:08:06,667
YOUR CUTIE MARKS!

173
00:08:06,709 --> 00:08:10,792
Blank Flanks! Blank Flanks!
Blank Flanks!

174
00:08:10,834 --> 00:08:12,959
What does that have to
do with flag-carrying?

175
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,792
Having Cutie-Mark-less
ponies represent Ponyville

176
00:08:15,834 --> 00:08:17,875
would be unthinkable!

177
00:08:17,917 --> 00:08:22,208
And we, of course,
already HAVE our Cutie Marks.

178
00:08:22,250 --> 00:08:24,917
So we know who's going

I can't believe I'm saying
this. They could win!

We already called
them Blank Flanks.

235
00:10:39,333 --> 00:10:42,250
Then we need to find a new

Or maybe, get under their WINGS.

In fact, it's obvious
to everypony.

You're showing all three
types of Ponyville ponies,

247

Pegasus Pony...

not being able to fly

I mean, a Pegasus
pony at your age?

253
00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:34,083
You should have been
flying long ago!

254
00:11:34,125 --> 00:11:36,834
So what if my wings
can't get me off the ground?

255
00:11:36,875 --> 00:11:38,375
Your career as a
flag carrier

256
00:11:38,417 --> 00:11:41,000
isn't getting off
the ground, either.

257
00:11:41,041 --> 00:11:43,375

never pick a Pegasus pony

If we want to win, I'm
gonna have to fly.

273
00:12:15,750 --> 00:12:16,917
Is that even possible?

274
00:12:16,959 --> 00:12:18,542
And by tomorrow?

275
00:12:18,583 --> 00:12:20,709
Maybe I can fly if I
work twice as hard.

276
00:12:20,750 --> 00:12:22,000
See?

277
00:12:22,041 --> 00:12:23,208
Oof!

278
00:12:23,250 --> 00:12:25,458
Maybe three times as hard.

Apple Bloom: Golly, I
don't know, Scootaloo.

280
00:12:27,250 --> 00:12:29,291
I don't think
that's the problem.

281
00:12:29,333 --> 00:12:30,792
Well, I know
this for sure:

282
00:12:30,834 --> 00:12:32,625
flying is the only
way we're gonna win.

283
00:12:32,667 --> 00:12:34,875
So it's back to practice!

284
00:12:34,917 --> 00:12:36,500

285
00:12:36,542 --> 00:12:39,333
Whooah! (thud)

286
00:12:39,375 --> 00:12:41,291
I'll just work four
times as hard.

287
00:12:42,458 --> 00:12:43,834
Probably not.

00:15:21,208 --> 00:15:23,083
I better get some rest.

358
00:15:23,125 --> 00:15:25,041
See you in the
morning, Scootaloo.

359
00:15:25,083 --> 00:15:26,750
Come on, Scootaloo!

360
00:15:26,792 --> 00:15:28,333
Do it for Ponyville.

361
00:15:28,375 --> 00:15:31,041
Just gotta try 20
times as hard.

362
00:15:31,083 --> 00:15:32,834
(grunt)

363
00:15:32,875 --> 00:15:35,834
Thirty - times - as hard.

364
00:15:35,875 --> 00:15:36,834
Oof!

365
00:15:36,875 --> 00:15:39,458
Just a little harder...

366
00:15:39,500 --> 00:15:40,458
(thud)

367
00:15:40,500 --> 00:15:41,458

368
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:42,458

369
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:43,500
(sigh)

370
00:15:44,709 --> 00:15:46,875
I can't fly.

371
00:15:46,917 --> 00:15:49,458
I just...
can't!

372
00:15:50,959 --> 00:15:52,417
(train bell ringing)

373
00:15:52,458 --> 00:15:55,125
Crystal Empire!
All aboard!

374
00:15:57,875 --> 00:15:58,875
Scootaloo?

375
00:16:01,625 --> 00:16:03,166
Where IS she?

376
00:16:03,208 --> 00:16:06,792
She better get here soon. This
here train is about to leave!

377
00:16:06,834 --> 00:16:09,083
Here I am.

378
00:16:09,125 --> 00:16:11,625
We were scared you were going
to miss the train.

379
00:16:11,667 --> 00:16:14,291
I - I'm not going.

380
00:16:14,333 --> 00:16:15,500
WHAT?

381
00:16:15,542 --> 00:16:17,041
I'm the weak link.

382
00:16:17,083 --> 00:16:21,083
If I go and fall, flop,
or do anything but fly,

383
00:16:21,125 --> 00:16:22,834
I'm gonna blow it
for you two.

384
00:16:22,875 --> 00:16:24,834
I can't believe you're
quitting on us!

385
00:16:24,875 --> 00:16:26,959
But you're better
off without me!

386
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,917
But that's not
true, Scootaloo!

387
00:16:28,959 --> 00:16:31,709
Ya know what, Sweetie
Belle? Forget it!

388
00:16:31,750 --> 00:16:35,792
If she's gonna quit, we don't'
want her and we don't need her!

389
00:16:35,834 --> 00:16:37,417
FINE!

390
00:16:37,458 --> 00:16:38,458
Fine.

391
00:16:39,333 --> 00:16:40,458
Fine.

392
00:16:40,500 --> 00:16:42,250

395
00:16:59,041 --> 00:17:01,542
How's my favorite
routine going today?

396
00:17:01,583 --> 00:17:03,125
Oh, I just can't keep it in.

397
00:17:03,166 --> 00:17:04,917
I want you to win so bad!

399
00:17:06,625 --> 00:17:08,500

through the hoop!

401
00:17:10,875 --> 00:17:14,417
Well, there ain't gonna be
a Scootaloo. She's staying home.

402
00:17:14,458 --> 00:17:16,000
She's WHAT?

403
00:17:16,041 --> 00:17:18,625
She got it in her head that the
only way to represent Ponyville

404
00:17:18,667 --> 00:17:21,208
was by flying in our routine.

405
00:17:21,250 --> 00:17:24,709
When she couldn't do it,
she told us she was quitting.

406
00:17:24,750 --> 00:17:28,291
And then you tried to stop
her from doing that, right?

407
00:17:28,333 --> 00:17:31,667
Well, actually we
kinda told her...

408
00:17:31,709 --> 00:17:33,792
that we didn't
want a quitter.

409
00:17:33,834 --> 00:17:36,000
Hang on! Are you NUTS?

410
00:17:36,041 --> 00:17:39,083
You're a team and a team
never leaves a friend behind.

411
00:17:42,208 --> 00:17:43,625

412
00:17:43,667 --> 00:17:44,667
Come on!

413
00:17:45,667 --> 00:17:47,875
Sorry you
can't make it!

414
00:17:47,917 --> 00:17:51,291
We'll take a picture for
you from the winners' circle.

415
00:17:51,333 --> 00:17:52,834
(giggling)

416
00:17:52,875 --> 00:17:55,041
I do not like them one bit.

417
00:17:55,083 --> 00:17:56,458
Put on some speed, girls!

away your scooter?

00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:10,041
Rainbow Dash?

420
00:18:10,083 --> 00:18:11,834
Yup. But not just me.

421
00:18:15,583 --> 00:18:17,333
I don't want to see them.

422
00:18:17,375 --> 00:18:19,250
And what are they
doing here, anyway?

423
00:18:19,291 --> 00:18:21,375
They're supposed to
be on the train.

424
00:18:21,417 --> 00:18:22,834
We're not going.

425
00:18:22,875 --> 00:18:24,542
Not without
YOU, Scootaloo.

426
00:18:26,583 --> 00:18:28,625
What's gotten into
you, Scootaloo?

427
00:18:28,667 --> 00:18:30,542
I didn't want to ruin
their chance to win

428
00:18:30,583 --> 00:18:32,917
just because I couldn't fly.

429
00:18:32,959 --> 00:18:34,834
And who said you had to?

430
00:18:34,875 --> 00:18:38,333
But flying's what Pegasus
ponies are supposed to do!

431
00:18:38,375 --> 00:18:41,583
YOU flew when you carried
the flag in the Games.

432
00:18:41,625 --> 00:18:43,166
But that was me!

433
00:18:43,208 --> 00:18:44,750
You're you!

434
00:18:44,792 --> 00:18:47,625
And it just doesn't
matter if you can fly or not!

435
00:18:47,667 --> 00:18:49,834
Your routine was amazing
'cause it represented

436
00:18:49,875 --> 00:18:52,542
exactly what makes
Ponyville special.

437
00:18:52,583 --> 00:18:55,417
You do still know
what that is, right?

438
00:18:55,458 --> 00:18:56,709
Friendship.

439
00:18:56,750 --> 00:18:59,458
Three kinds of ponies
living together as friends,

440
00:18:59,500 --> 00:19:00,750

441
00:19:00,792 --> 00:19:01,750

But Rainbow Dash...

445
00:19:07,709 --> 00:19:11,583
What if...what if my
wings never grow?

446
00:19:11,625 --> 00:19:13,750
What if I never fly?

447
00:19:13,792 --> 00:19:16,583
Listen, Scootaloo:
maybe you'll fly someday...

448
00:19:16,625 --> 00:19:18,041
or maybe you won't.

449
00:19:18,083 --> 00:19:20,375
You're all kinds of
awesome anyway.

00:19:20,417 --> 00:19:23,333
