00:00:01,209 --> 00:00:03,044
( tender theme playing )

2
00:00:04,045 --> 00:00:05,798
( squeaking )

3
00:00:10,093 --> 00:00:13,096
Ooh, I wish the mail pony
would just come already.

4
00:00:13,221 --> 00:00:15,014
I can't wait another minute
to find out

5
00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:17,225
if Rainbow Dash
got in or not.

6
00:00:17,351 --> 00:00:20,604
Pinkie Pie, you're more nervous
than Rainbow Dash. I'm

7
00:00:20,729 --> 00:00:22,481
not nervous at all.

8
00:00:22,606 --> 00:00:24,441
When I get
into the Wonderbolt Academy--

9
00:00:24,566 --> 00:00:26,902
"If" you get in?
"If" you get in?

10
00:00:27,026 --> 00:00:28,195
Don't jinx it.

11
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,238
I'm telling you,
it's in the bag.

12
00:00:30,364 --> 00:00:31,490
Don't jinx it.

13
00:00:31,615 --> 00:00:33,826
She is the best flyer
in Ponyville.

14
00:00:33,951 --> 00:00:35,118
In Ponyville?

15
00:00:35,243 --> 00:00:37,037
( upbeat theme playing )

16
00:00:37,162 --> 00:00:40,374
I'm probably the best flyer
in all of Equestria.

17
00:00:40,499 --> 00:00:42,626
I wouldn't be surprised
if they just went ahead

18
00:00:42,751 --> 00:00:46,129
and made me a Wonderbolt
on the first day.

19
00:00:46,254 --> 00:00:47,715
Got a letter here
for Rainbow Dash.

20
00:00:50,467 --> 00:00:51,969
( wistful theme playing )

21
00:00:52,093 --> 00:00:53,762
I didn't get in.

22
00:00:53,888 --> 00:00:55,556
( gasps )

23
00:00:55,681 --> 00:00:57,098
Gotcha.

24
00:00:57,224 --> 00:00:58,475
( laughs )

25
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,436
You guys are so gullible.

26
00:01:01,562 --> 00:01:04,272
Like I wasn't gonna get in.

27
00:01:04,398 --> 00:01:08,527
I'm just so happy for you.

28
00:01:08,652 --> 00:01:10,988
Uh, thanks.

29
00:01:11,112 --> 00:01:13,281
( straining )

30
00:01:13,407 --> 00:01:16,451
Pinkie Pie,
I kind of need to get going.

31
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:21,248
Okay. I'm done.

32
00:01:21,373 --> 00:01:22,583
Sooner I get there,

33
00:01:22,708 --> 00:01:25,126
sooner I get to show them
my stuff.

34
00:01:26,127 --> 00:01:27,421
See you guys in a week.

35
00:01:27,546 --> 00:01:30,841
Good luck.
Won't need it.

36
00:01:32,509 --> 00:01:36,179
Don't forget to write.

37
00:01:36,304 --> 00:01:38,306
( voice echoing )
( rumbling )

38
00:01:39,641 --> 00:01:41,727

Oh, yeah.
This is gonna be sweet.

53
00:02:54,675 --> 00:02:57,011
SPITFIRE:
Well, lookie what we got here.

54
00:02:57,136 --> 00:02:58,053
( ominous theme playing )

55
00:02:58,177 --> 00:02:59,596
Bet you all think

56
00:02:59,721 --> 00:03:01,598
you're Wonderbolt material,
don't you?

57
00:03:01,723 --> 00:03:03,809
ALL:
Yes, ma'am!

58
00:03:03,934 --> 00:03:06,687
Think you've got what it takes
to be an elite flyer?

59
00:03:06,812 --> 00:03:08,647
ALL: Yes, ma'am!
Well, then,

60
00:03:08,772 --> 00:03:10,357
let me be the first
to tell you

61
00:03:10,482 --> 00:03:12,109
you don't!

62
00:03:12,233 --> 00:03:14,611
If you had what it took
to be an elite flyer,

63
00:03:14,736 --> 00:03:17,614
you'd already be
a Wonderbolt.

64
00:03:17,739 --> 00:03:19,491
Still think
you're something special?

65
00:03:20,784 --> 00:03:22,243
No, ma'am.

66
00:03:24,997 --> 00:03:26,707
( whimpers )

67
00:03:30,460 --> 00:03:31,586
You think you're hot stuff?

68
00:03:31,712 --> 00:03:33,212
( whimpering )

69
00:03:33,338 --> 00:03:35,007
You look like
you're the worst flyer

70
00:03:35,132 --> 00:03:36,550
in the whole academy.

71
00:03:36,675 --> 00:03:38,886
You'll probably quit
after the first day.

72
00:03:39,011 --> 00:03:41,930
No, ma'am.
I'd never quit, ma'am.

73
00:03:42,056 --> 00:03:43,182
Ha.

74
00:03:43,306 --> 00:03:44,808
What about you?

75
00:03:44,933 --> 00:03:46,935
Bet you couldn't fly
past the first flagpole

76
00:03:47,061 --> 00:03:49,604
without getting winded.
Try me, ma'am.

77
00:03:49,730 --> 00:03:51,815
What's that?

78
00:03:51,940 --> 00:03:54,026
Let me show you
what I've got, ma'am.

79
00:03:54,151 --> 00:03:56,904
Oh, you want a chance
to prove yourself, huh?

80
00:03:57,029 --> 00:03:58,197
Yes, ma'am.

81
00:03:58,321 --> 00:04:00,281
Well, then,
now's your chance.

82
00:04:00,407 --> 00:04:01,950
Give me 500 laps.

83
00:04:02,076 --> 00:04:03,952
All of you!
( all groan )

84
00:04:04,078 --> 00:04:05,286
Now!

85
00:04:05,412 --> 00:04:06,663
( blows whistle )

86
00:04:11,250 --> 00:04:12,502
( upbeat theme playing )

87
00:04:17,549 --> 00:04:18,717
( all coughing )

88
00:04:18,842 --> 00:04:21,053
Lap 499.

89
00:04:21,178 --> 00:04:24,181
One more lap to go.

90
00:04:24,305 --> 00:04:26,558
You're on.

91
00:04:34,108 --> 00:04:35,234
Five hundred.

92
00:04:35,358 --> 00:04:37,277
( screeching )

93
00:04:38,737 --> 00:04:39,947
Not bad...

94
00:04:40,072 --> 00:04:42,323
for a couple of newbies.

95
00:04:42,449 --> 00:04:44,868
Name's Lightning Dust.
Rainbow Dash.

96
00:04:44,993 --> 00:04:46,620
Wanna grab some grub
in the mess hall?

97
00:04:46,745 --> 00:04:48,496
Definitely.

98
00:04:48,622 --> 00:04:49,873
( tender theme playing )

99
00:04:55,170 --> 00:04:59,091
Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash hasn't
even been gone 24 hours yet.

100
00:04:59,216 --> 00:05:01,093
Give her a chance
to settle in first.

101
00:05:01,218 --> 00:05:03,637
Why don't we just go see
what Twilight's up to?

102
00:05:03,762 --> 00:05:05,055
I hear Princess Celestia's

103
00:05:05,180 --> 00:05:06,556
got her working
on some new spells.

104
00:05:06,681 --> 00:05:09,517
New spells, huh?
Okay.

105
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:11,853
Wait. If I'm not here

106
00:05:11,979 --> 00:05:13,647
when Rainbow Dash's letter
arrives,

107
00:05:13,772 --> 00:05:15,649
I won't be able to read it
right away.

108
00:05:15,774 --> 00:05:17,985
If I don't read it right away,
I can't write back right away.

109
00:05:18,110 --> 00:05:20,112
And if I don't, she might think
I didn't get her letter.

110
00:05:20,237 --> 00:05:21,863
Then she might worry
it got lost.

111
00:05:21,989 --> 00:05:24,074
And if she's worrying,
she'll be distracted.

112
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:25,742
If she's distracted, she
won't do well at the academy,

113
00:05:25,867 --> 00:05:27,828
then she'll get kicked out.

114
00:05:27,953 --> 00:05:30,371
If she gets kicked out, they'll
never let her be a Wonderbolt.

115
00:05:30,497 --> 00:05:31,915
If she doesn't get
to be a Wonderbolt,

116
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,001
all her dreams
will be crushed!

117
00:05:34,126 --> 00:05:39,006
And it will be
all my fault.

118
00:05:39,131 --> 00:05:42,134
So in other words,
you're sticking by the mailbox.

119
00:05:42,259 --> 00:05:44,303
Yup.
Suit yourself.

120
00:05:49,766 --> 00:05:51,893
SPITFIRE:
The Wonderbolts are the fastest,

121
00:05:52,019 --> 00:05:54,146
best precision flyers
in the world.

122
00:05:54,271 --> 00:05:55,939
But spinouts
can still happen.

123
00:05:56,064 --> 00:05:57,565
And when they do,

124
00:05:57,691 --> 00:06:00,235
a Wonderbolt must be able
to recover quickly.

125
00:06:00,359 --> 00:06:03,197
This is the Dizzitron.

126
00:06:03,322 --> 00:06:06,867
It's gonna to make you very,
I repeat, very dizzy.

127
00:06:06,992 --> 00:06:08,743
Your task
is to try to recover

128
00:06:08,869 --> 00:06:11,830
and fly straight again,
as soon as possible.

129
00:06:11,955 --> 00:06:14,541
Once you have recovered you must
come in for a smooth landing.

130
00:06:14,666 --> 00:06:16,459
Now who's first?

131
00:06:16,584 --> 00:06:17,961
You.

132
00:06:18,086 --> 00:06:20,630
You're up.
Me?

133
00:06:24,051 --> 00:06:25,302
( gulps )

134
00:06:25,426 --> 00:06:27,221
Now!

135
00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:30,891
Ready?

136
00:06:32,017 --> 00:06:33,810
Yes, ma'am.

137
00:06:33,935 --> 00:06:35,812
Go!

138
00:06:35,937 --> 00:06:37,772
( Dizzitron whirring )

139
00:06:45,404 --> 00:06:46,907
Release.

140
00:06:54,164 --> 00:06:55,749
( groaning )

141
00:06:55,874 --> 00:06:57,959
( sighs )

142
00:07:00,795 --> 00:07:03,382
Ah, 15 seconds. Decent.

143
00:07:03,506 --> 00:07:05,800
But I wouldn't go writing home
about it. Who's next?

144
00:07:05,926 --> 00:07:09,012
All right, Rainbow Dash,
let's see what you got.

145
00:07:09,137 --> 00:07:10,555
Yes, ma'am.

146
00:07:13,183 --> 00:07:14,309
Okay, go.

147
00:07:14,433 --> 00:07:15,685
( Dizzitron whirring )

148
00:07:19,314 --> 00:07:20,565
Release.

149
00:07:27,072 --> 00:07:28,531
Six seconds.

150
00:07:28,656 --> 00:07:30,033
That's an academy record.

151
00:07:30,158 --> 00:07:32,827
You make it look so easy.

152
00:07:32,953 --> 00:07:34,996
I make everything look easy.

153
00:07:35,122 --> 00:07:37,457
SPITFIRE:
Okay, Lightning Dust,
you're up.

154
00:07:37,582 --> 00:07:41,044
Ma'am, can you put
the Dizzitron at maximum speed?

155
00:07:41,169 --> 00:07:43,046
I wanna push my limits.

156
00:07:43,171 --> 00:07:45,299
You sure about that?

157
00:07:45,424 --> 00:07:46,716
Yes, ma'am.

158
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:50,678
Okay. You asked for it.

159
00:07:50,804 --> 00:07:52,806
( Dizzitron whirring )

160
00:08:02,899 --> 00:08:04,151
Release.

161
00:08:10,991 --> 00:08:14,328
Six-point-five seconds.
Not bad.

162
00:08:15,370 --> 00:08:16,537
Oh, yeah.
Ha.

163
00:08:16,663 --> 00:08:17,956
SPITFIRE:
Next!

164
00:08:21,668 --> 00:08:23,420
( screeching )

165
00:08:23,544 --> 00:08:26,631
No pony even came close
to six seconds.

166
00:08:26,756 --> 00:08:29,301
They should make us
Wonderbolts right now.

167
00:08:29,426 --> 00:08:30,551
Yeah, they should.

168
00:08:30,677 --> 00:08:32,053
( chuckles )
Listen up.

169
00:08:32,179 --> 00:08:34,222
You'll be working in pairs.

170
00:08:34,348 --> 00:08:35,890
Tomorrow morning,
I'll post the teams,

171
00:08:36,016 --> 00:08:37,600
including who will be
lead pony

172
00:08:37,725 --> 00:08:39,019
and who will be wingpony.

173
00:08:39,144 --> 00:08:40,603
Good luck.

174
00:08:40,728 --> 00:08:42,314
Like we're gonna need it.

175
00:08:42,439 --> 00:08:44,691
Yeah.

176
00:08:45,733 --> 00:08:46,943
( upbeat theme playing )

177
00:08:48,362 --> 00:08:52,782
So which one of you lucky gals
gets to be my wingpony?

178
00:08:52,907 --> 00:08:54,159
What?

179
00:08:54,284 --> 00:08:56,786
Uh, you might wanna check
the wall.

180
00:09:01,458 --> 00:09:03,668
A wingpony?

181
00:09:05,837 --> 00:09:09,632
They made us a team.
Isn't that awesome?

182
00:09:11,468 --> 00:09:13,136
( ominous theme playing )

183
00:09:15,430 --> 00:09:17,098
( upbeat theme playing )

184
00:09:19,267 --> 00:09:20,810
Permission to enter, ma'am.

185
00:09:20,935 --> 00:09:22,270
What is it, Rainbow Dash?

186
00:09:22,396 --> 00:09:24,939
I had the best time
on the Dizzitron,

187
00:09:25,065 --> 00:09:26,525
only six seconds.

188
00:09:26,649 --> 00:09:27,859
And?

189
00:09:27,984 --> 00:09:30,195
And you made me a wingpony.

190
00:09:34,533 --> 00:09:36,326
Because I believe you
and Lightning Dust

191
00:09:36,451 --> 00:09:37,869
will be an unstoppable team.

192
00:09:37,994 --> 00:09:39,996
Do you not think
you'll be an unstoppable team?

193
00:09:40,121 --> 00:09:42,123
Yes, ma'am.
I mean, no, ma'am.

194
00:09:42,249 --> 00:09:46,169
I mean, we'll be
an unstoppable team, ma'am.

195
00:09:46,294 --> 00:09:47,546
Then what's the problem?

196
00:09:49,005 --> 00:09:51,425
I think I should be lead pony,
ma'am.

197
00:09:51,550 --> 00:09:54,593
And I think Lightning Dust
likes to push herself

198
00:09:54,719 --> 00:09:56,179
a little harder than you do.

199
00:09:56,304 --> 00:09:58,014
That's why I made her
lead pony.

200
00:09:58,139 --> 00:10:00,183
Got it?

201
00:10:00,308 --> 00:10:01,435
Yes, ma'am.

202
00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:02,810
Good.

203
00:10:07,148 --> 00:10:08,400
( military theme playing )

204
00:10:15,031 --> 00:10:16,908
Today you will all
be participating

205
00:10:17,033 --> 00:10:19,035
in a flag hunt.

206
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,661
We'll divide you
into two teams:

207
00:10:20,787 --> 00:10:23,790
Red and Blue.

208
00:10:23,915 --> 00:10:25,333
Whoever finds the most flags

209
00:10:25,459 --> 00:10:27,668
of the opposing team's color
wins.

210
00:10:27,794 --> 00:10:29,045
( all cheering )

211
00:10:29,170 --> 00:10:31,506
Oh, this is gonna be
so much fun.

212
00:10:31,631 --> 00:10:32,924
If you think
this is gonna be fun,

213
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:34,551
you are sadly mistaken.

214
00:10:34,675 --> 00:10:37,720
This is for training purposes,
this is not recess.

215
00:10:37,845 --> 00:10:40,474
Lead ponies and wingponies
must fly together.

216
00:10:40,599 --> 00:10:42,225
If any pair splits apart,

217
00:10:42,350 --> 00:10:45,770
they will be
immediately disqualified.

218
00:10:45,895 --> 00:10:47,147
Do you understand?

219
00:10:47,272 --> 00:10:48,523
ALL:
Yes, ma'am.

220
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:49,857
Then let's go.

221
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:52,110
( blows whistles )

222
00:10:52,235 --> 00:10:54,321
( suspenseful theme playing )

223
00:10:57,656 --> 00:11:00,785
Ready to rock and roll?
Ready.

224
00:11:12,797 --> 00:11:14,424
You spotted any flags yet?

225
00:11:14,549 --> 00:11:15,967
Not yet.

226
00:11:16,092 --> 00:11:17,760
Oh, there's one.

227
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:19,846
Good eyes.

228
00:11:19,971 --> 00:11:21,640
RAINBOW DASH:
We should slow down.

229
00:11:21,764 --> 00:11:23,475
It doesn't look like both of us
can make it at this speed.

230
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,018
Ha.

231
00:11:29,523 --> 00:11:30,773
Ow.

232
00:11:32,984 --> 00:11:36,488
Lightning Dust and Rainbow Dash
have found the first flag.

233
00:11:38,697 --> 00:11:40,950
Come on,
let's find some more.

234
00:11:41,075 --> 00:11:43,995
Uh, sure,
just give me a second.

235
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,622
Oh, you're fine.

236
00:11:48,875 --> 00:11:51,169
Yeah, totally.

237
00:11:51,294 --> 00:11:53,547
( groans )

238
00:11:53,672 --> 00:11:54,797
( snoring )

239
00:11:54,922 --> 00:11:56,174
( gasps )

240
00:11:57,425 --> 00:11:58,677
( melancholy theme playing )

241
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:03,431
She's still at it.

242
00:12:03,557 --> 00:12:05,600
I just wish
we could help her.

243
00:12:05,724 --> 00:12:06,976
Help me? The only thing

244
00:12:07,101 --> 00:12:08,895
that could possibly help me
right now

245
00:12:09,020 --> 00:12:11,398
is a letter from Rainbow Dash.
It's been three days already.

246
00:12:11,523 --> 00:12:14,651
By now, she probably doesn't
even know our names anymore.

247
00:12:14,775 --> 00:12:17,278
She probably can't remember
our faces.

248
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:19,614
"Pinkie Pie?
I never heard of a Pinkie Pie.

249
00:12:19,738 --> 00:12:21,824
Who is Pinkie Pie?"

250
00:12:21,949 --> 00:12:23,451
Well, if you're so worried,

251
00:12:23,577 --> 00:12:25,995
then why don't you
send her a letter first?

252
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,831
Of course.
That's a great idea.

253
00:12:28,956 --> 00:12:30,208
( all sigh )

254
00:12:30,333 --> 00:12:32,460
Wait.
I got an even better idea.

255
00:12:32,586 --> 00:12:35,129
How about we send Rainbow Dash
a care package?

256
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:37,048
You know, before she forgets
all about us.

257
00:12:37,173 --> 00:12:39,050
Although, come on,
let's face it,

258
00:12:39,175 --> 00:12:40,635
it's probably too late
for that.

259
00:12:40,759 --> 00:12:42,845
But, uh, maybe it'll jog
her memory somehow.

260
00:12:42,970 --> 00:12:45,890
Pinkie Pie, I'm sure Rainbow
Dash still remembers our faces

261
00:12:46,015 --> 00:12:47,475
and who we are.

262
00:12:47,601 --> 00:12:50,478
But I think sending her
a care package is a great idea.

263
00:12:50,604 --> 00:12:52,188
A care package it is.

264
00:12:52,313 --> 00:12:54,232
We'll send it
through the mail.

265
00:12:54,357 --> 00:12:56,526
Wait! Ah!
That won't work at all.

266
00:12:56,651 --> 00:12:58,319
Why not?
Because what if the package

267
00:12:58,445 --> 00:12:59,946
gets lost in the mail?

268
00:13:00,071 --> 00:13:02,031
What if somepony else
gets the package by accident

269
00:13:02,156 --> 00:13:04,033
and then she remembers us
instead of Rainbow Dash

270
00:13:04,158 --> 00:13:05,660
and then she becomes
our new friend.

271
00:13:05,784 --> 00:13:07,621
And then the real Rainbow Dash
won't ever know

272
00:13:07,746 --> 00:13:10,123
that she used to have friends
and she forgot them.

273
00:13:10,248 --> 00:13:12,041
Is anypony else
following this?

274
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:14,419
ALL: Uh-uh.
I've got it!

275
00:13:14,544 --> 00:13:17,547
We'll deliver the care package
to Rainbow Dash in person.

276
00:13:17,672 --> 00:13:18,881
I wouldn't mind
a little trip.

277
00:13:19,006 --> 00:13:20,675
I'll go.
Count me in.

278
00:13:20,799 --> 00:13:22,552
Me too.
Me five.

279
00:13:22,677 --> 00:13:24,887
But don't be upset if she
doesn't recognize you at first.

280
00:13:25,012 --> 00:13:28,308
It may take a while for her
to get her memory back.

281
00:13:28,433 --> 00:13:29,684
( suspenseful theme playing )

282
00:13:33,354 --> 00:13:34,981
( trumpet blowing )

283
00:13:38,192 --> 00:13:42,572
SPITFIRE:
Today we'll be doing our famous
air obstacle course.

284
00:13:42,697 --> 00:13:44,240
The object of this exercise

285
00:13:44,365 --> 00:13:45,908
is to work
on your precision flying

286
00:13:46,033 --> 00:13:48,620
under extreme circumstances.

287
00:13:48,745 --> 00:13:50,163
And don't worry
about winning.

288
00:13:50,288 --> 00:13:52,332
It's not a race.

289
00:13:53,958 --> 00:13:56,085
Now, everypony
get on your marks.

290
00:13:58,045 --> 00:14:00,047
( blows whistle )

291
00:14:02,300 --> 00:14:03,968
( wind gusting )

292
00:14:21,110 --> 00:14:23,738
Ugh!
Can't they go any faster?

293
00:14:23,863 --> 00:14:26,533
It's no good.
I can't get around them.

294
00:14:26,658 --> 00:14:27,784
It doesn't matter.

295
00:14:27,908 --> 00:14:29,577
We can still fly
completely in sync

296
00:14:29,703 --> 00:14:32,330
and blow Spitfire's mind
with our moves.

297
00:14:32,455 --> 00:14:33,707
I guess.

298
00:14:42,465 --> 00:14:44,467
( wind whistling )

299
00:14:46,636 --> 00:14:48,429
What are they,
a couple of snails?

300
00:14:48,555 --> 00:14:49,681
It's just a little weather.

301
00:14:49,806 --> 00:14:51,808
( thunder rumbling )

302
00:14:53,685 --> 00:14:57,397
Now's our chance
to pass these slowpokes.

303
00:14:57,522 --> 00:14:59,774
( ponies grunting )

304
00:14:59,899 --> 00:15:02,109
( upbeat theme playing )

305
00:15:09,909 --> 00:15:12,286
Not bad.
And in record time too.

306
00:15:12,412 --> 00:15:13,788
Definitely made
the right decision

307
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:15,874
making you two a team.

308
00:15:15,998 --> 00:15:18,251
The others seem to have had
a little trouble

309
00:15:18,376 --> 00:15:19,960
with the precision part
of the exercise.

310
00:15:20,086 --> 00:15:21,546
I better go help
sort them out.

311
00:15:21,671 --> 00:15:23,715
Why don't you two
go hit the mess hall early?

312
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,717
Yes, ma'am.

313
00:15:25,842 --> 00:15:27,051
Thank you, ma'am.

314
00:15:27,176 --> 00:15:29,554
Um, Lightening Dust?

315
00:15:29,679 --> 00:15:33,015
Next time, maybe we don't cut
the other teams off like that.

316
00:15:33,140 --> 00:15:34,934
Hey, you snooze, you lose.

317
00:15:35,059 --> 00:15:37,604
Besides, Wonderbolts
are supposed to be able

318
00:15:37,729 --> 00:15:39,188
to recover from a spinout.

319
00:15:39,313 --> 00:15:40,774
You saw them
on the Dizzitron.

320
00:15:40,899 --> 00:15:42,776
They could use the practice.

321
00:15:42,901 --> 00:15:44,360
I mean, it's not our fault

322
00:15:44,485 --> 00:15:46,195
we're so much better
than those other guys.

323
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,989
Not everypony is destined
to become a Wonderbolt.

324
00:15:49,115 --> 00:15:51,492
Only the best of the best,
right?

325
00:15:51,618 --> 00:15:55,246
Yeah. I guess you're right.

326
00:15:55,371 --> 00:15:56,831
Of course I'm right.

327
00:15:56,955 --> 00:15:58,332
Now let's go fuel up.

328
00:15:58,458 --> 00:16:00,919
Kicking all that tail's
made me hungry.

329
00:16:01,043 --> 00:16:02,295
( slow theme playing )

330
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:07,967
( blows whistle )

331
00:16:08,092 --> 00:16:10,595
( dramatic theme playing )

332
00:16:22,732 --> 00:16:25,151
( air whooshing )

333
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,737
Yeah!

334
00:16:27,862 --> 00:16:29,530
( upbeat theme playing )

335
00:16:35,453 --> 00:16:36,996
I have an idea

336
00:16:37,121 --> 00:16:41,083
about how we can literally
blow away our competition.

337
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:45,129
But we're already way ahead.

338
00:16:45,254 --> 00:16:46,923
Are you in or not?

339
00:16:47,047 --> 00:16:48,591
SPITFIRE:
Lightning Dust likes
to push herself

340
00:16:48,716 --> 00:16:50,092
a little harder than you do.

341
00:16:50,217 --> 00:16:53,596
That's why I made her
lead pony.

342
00:16:53,721 --> 00:16:55,222
I'm in.

343
00:16:55,348 --> 00:16:57,558
Then follow my lead.

344
00:17:07,193 --> 00:17:08,653
I can't control it.

345
00:17:08,778 --> 00:17:10,029
( suspenseful theme playing )

346
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:23,250
It's a twister.

347
00:17:23,376 --> 00:17:24,752
( ominous theme playing )

348
00:17:24,878 --> 00:17:27,046
Hold on!

349
00:17:32,426 --> 00:17:35,053
( all screaming )

350
00:17:35,179 --> 00:17:37,181
No.

351
00:17:42,812 --> 00:17:44,271
( all screaming )

352
00:17:55,241 --> 00:17:57,201
( screaming )

353
00:17:57,326 --> 00:17:59,370
( gasping and sighing )

354
00:18:06,669 --> 00:18:08,379
Are you guys okay?

355
00:18:08,504 --> 00:18:10,130
ALL:
Uh-huh.

356
00:18:10,256 --> 00:18:11,925
Pinkie Pie.

357
00:18:15,261 --> 00:18:17,513
You remember me.

358
00:18:17,638 --> 00:18:19,849
Well, yeah,
of course I remember you.

359
00:18:19,974 --> 00:18:22,018
But what are you all
doing here?

360
00:18:22,142 --> 00:18:24,062
We wanted to bring you
a care package.

361
00:18:24,186 --> 00:18:25,605
Didn't realize
you'd be in the middle

362
00:18:25,730 --> 00:18:27,690
of some crazy tornado drill.

363
00:18:27,815 --> 00:18:30,401
That was awesome.

364
00:18:30,526 --> 00:18:34,030
Awesome? My friends could've
been smashed to pieces.

365
00:18:34,154 --> 00:18:37,283
Yeah.
But they weren't, right?

366
00:18:37,408 --> 00:18:39,118
Can't say the same
for the clouds.

367
00:18:39,243 --> 00:18:41,746
We totally wiped them out
with that tornado.

368
00:18:41,871 --> 00:18:43,873
The other cadets will have
to be up there for days

369
00:18:43,998 --> 00:18:45,374
to bust as many as we did.

370
00:18:47,710 --> 00:18:49,712
A hoof bump? Seriously?

371
00:18:49,837 --> 00:18:51,213
You made me clip my wing.

372
00:18:51,338 --> 00:18:53,382
You sent half of our class
into serious tailspins

373
00:18:53,507 --> 00:18:54,634
on the obstacle course.

374
00:18:54,759 --> 00:18:56,343
You unleashed a tornado

375
00:18:56,469 --> 00:18:58,471
that nearly demolished
my friends.

376
00:18:58,596 --> 00:19:00,014
Yeah. And?

377
00:19:00,139 --> 00:19:03,559
And I get that you wanna
be the best. So do I.

378
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:06,186
But you're going about it
in the wrong way.

379
00:19:06,312 --> 00:19:08,773
The Wonderbolts don't seem
to think so.

380
00:19:08,898 --> 00:19:11,734
After all,
Spitfire did make me the leader

381
00:19:11,859 --> 00:19:13,277
and you the wingpony.

382
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:14,904
( sighs )

383
00:19:15,029 --> 00:19:18,240
You're right, she did.

384
00:19:20,034 --> 00:19:21,327
This better be important.

385
00:19:21,452 --> 00:19:22,662
You're supposed to be
up there

386
00:19:22,787 --> 00:19:24,122
busting clouds
with your partner.

387
00:19:24,246 --> 00:19:25,539
We're done with that,
ma'am.

388
00:19:25,665 --> 00:19:27,917
Already?
That's an academy record.

389
00:19:28,042 --> 00:19:29,543
Explain your methods.

390
00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:30,962
That's why I'm here,
ma'am.

391
00:19:31,087 --> 00:19:33,297
Lightning Dust decided
to use a tornado.

392
00:19:33,422 --> 00:19:35,466
A bit excessive
for cloudbusting.

393
00:19:35,591 --> 00:19:36,926
But judging from your time,

394
00:19:37,051 --> 00:19:38,719
it was obviously
an effective tactic.

395
00:19:38,845 --> 00:19:40,721
Yeah,
well, that effective tactic

396
00:19:40,847 --> 00:19:42,431
nearly took out my friends.

397
00:19:42,556 --> 00:19:45,309
No disrespect, ma'am,
but there's a big difference

398
00:19:45,434 --> 00:19:47,311
between pushing yourself
as hard as you can

399
00:19:47,436 --> 00:19:49,229
and just being reckless.

400
00:19:49,355 --> 00:19:50,564
And if being reckless

401
00:19:50,690 --> 00:19:52,150
is what gets rewarded
around here,

402
00:19:52,274 --> 00:19:54,276
if that's what it means
to be a Wonderbolt,

403
00:19:54,401 --> 00:19:56,612
then I don't want any part
of it.

404
00:19:56,737 --> 00:19:58,405
What are you saying, newbie?

405
00:20:00,449 --> 00:20:01,701
I quit.

406
00:20:10,751 --> 00:20:12,336
APPLEJACK:
You did what?

407
00:20:12,461 --> 00:20:15,089
But being a Wonderbolt
was your dream.

408
00:20:15,214 --> 00:20:16,883
Not anymore.

409
00:20:17,008 --> 00:20:18,759
I'm sorry, Rainbow Dash.

410
00:20:18,885 --> 00:20:21,512
I know how much
this meant to you.

411
00:20:23,347 --> 00:20:25,391
Rainbow Dash.

412
00:20:25,516 --> 00:20:27,185
How dare you
storm out of my office

413
00:20:27,309 --> 00:20:28,853
without giving me
a chance to respond.

414
00:20:28,978 --> 00:20:30,437
The Wonderbolts are looking

415
00:20:30,563 --> 00:20:32,356
for the best fliers
in Equestria.

416
00:20:32,481 --> 00:20:34,108
But you were right,
being the best

417
00:20:34,233 --> 00:20:36,194
should never come at the expense
of our fellow ponies.

418
00:20:36,318 --> 00:20:38,779
It's not just
about pushing ourselves,

419
00:20:38,905 --> 00:20:41,532
it's about pushing ourselves
in the right direction.

420
00:20:41,657 --> 00:20:42,950
You've shown
that you're capable

421
00:20:43,076 --> 00:20:44,577
of doing just that.

422
00:20:58,340 --> 00:21:01,219
You're no wingpony,
Rainbow Dash.

423
00:21:01,343 --> 00:21:03,387
You're a leader.

424
00:21:03,512 --> 00:21:05,723
Oh, my, gosh. Oh, my, gosh.
Oh, my, gosh. Oh, my, gosh.

425
00:21:09,518 --> 00:21:12,230
Now get up there
and give me 20.

426
00:21:12,354 --> 00:21:14,107
Yes, ma'am.

427
00:21:14,232 --> 00:21:16,609
( majestic theme playing )

428
00:21:26,660 --> 00:21:30,330
Wait. You didn't even get
to open your care package!
