It's almost Spring Break.

have already left

to celebrate the Spring
Solstice in Canterlot
78
00:03:14,591 --> 00:03:16,723

Mudbriar are throwing?

Sunburst is coming to town?

You and I promised
to make the cake?

forget about that?

mean I can't help

we have to do.

So what are all the
things we have to do?
99
00:04:19,887 --> 00:04:22,052
Maud needs streamers
for the decorations.
100
00:04:22,087 --> 00:04:24,923
Sunburst wants us to pick up
a genuine, pre-Equestrian,

dish from the antique shop.

Of course he does.

Mudbriar wants a "bouquet
of flowering sticks,"
104
00:04:31,437 --> 00:04:32,570
whatever that means.
105
00:04:32,605 --> 00:04:34,702
And I thought we were both
looking forward to Mrs. Cake
106
00:04:34,737 --> 00:04:36,308
teaching us the secret recipe
107
00:04:36,343 --> 00:04:38,035
to her famous Spring
Solstice cake.
108
00:04:38,070 --> 00:04:40,037
Oh, I totally am.
109
00:04:41,579 --> 00:04:46,043
But we could just buy
a cake from her, right?
110
00:04:46,078 --> 00:04:50,850
We could, but then we'd
miss out on baking together.
111
00:04:50,885 --> 00:04:53,622
Plus the time I spent
flattering and convincing
112
00:04:53,657 --> 00:04:56,493
and begging her to share the
recipe would be for nothing,
113
00:04:56,528 --> 00:04:59,529
and we promised to make
a cake, not buy a cake
114
00:04:59,564 --> 00:05:03,434
and the great and powerful
Trixie keeps her promises!
115
00:05:03,469 --> 00:05:07,570
OK. Why don't we just
split up these jobs?
116
00:05:07,605 --> 00:05:09,605

and the chafing dish.

Really? If I hadn't galloped

Silverstream would be

You got the hunk part right.

And to top it off, we have
no idea if Silverstream

even came to Everfree at all,

where else to look!

Of course!

This is Edith. She's
helping me with my project.

I don't understand.
419
00:19:14,814 --> 00:19:17,386
After you encouraged me
to solve my own problem,
420
00:19:17,421 --> 00:19:20,587
I decided to get my
project done before I left.
421

That way I could really
focus on my family

was closed so I came here.

Oh, no. I'm so sorry.

Once Edith volunteered to help,
427
00:19:33,866 --> 00:19:35,833
I guess I lost track of time.
428
00:19:35,868 --> 00:19:37,604
Cockatrice's are really friendly

interact with them.

how to trigger her

They are really

Forest once a year!
436

Can you imagine
what would happen

whole flock of these?

00:19:58,462 --> 00:19:59,923
I have a few ideas.

00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:03,366
Agh!

I'm sorry you got turned
to stone looking for me,

able to turn you back.

How do you tell the difference?

I have mixed feelings about it.

Technically, I will
always be a stick pony,

an even deeper appreciation

permanence of rock.

for everything you
did to help find her.

hadn't abandoned her

I like that you're
always available,

it OK to come to you

isn't super important.
464
00:20:55,750 --> 00:20:57,651
Of course, being a
school counselor
465
00:20:57,686 --> 00:20:59,719
is a big responsibility,
466
00:20:59,754 --> 00:21:02,788
