Team Ponyville wins!
363
00:16:52,573 --> 00:16:54,672
It says very clearly
on page six forty-seven
364
00:16:54,707 --> 00:16:57,048
of the expanded buckball
tournament rules that
365
00:16:57,083 --> 00:16:59,545
"a goal is scored when an
earth pony sends the ball
366
00:16:59,580 --> 00:17:02,680
into a basket," but it
doesn't say which basket.

If that goal is
ours, it's only 2-1

I know. But I told you,
you didn't need to.
377

You and I have to
rethink all of this.

Thanks for trying, Rainbow Dash,

385
00:17:50,565 --> 00:17:54,534
the whole sportify
idea was a big flop.

even gotten started!

more top notch ideas

It's throw in the towel,

You can't just give up.
394

Wind and Sky deserve
a pony they both like
395
00:18:14,523 --> 00:18:17,392

wants to "rethink" things,

her to the lunch.

It's beating her
to the punch.
398

And it's barely a
sports reference.
399
00:18:23,697 --> 00:18:25,532
How do you not know that?
400
00:18:25,567 --> 00:18:32,110
Because I don't know
anything about sports!
401
00:18:33,311 --> 00:18:36,180
And pretending I did
just made things worse.

So you should
stop pretending.

terrible at sports.

You're uncoordinated,
slow, weak...

OK, again, not really
making me feel better.

Why do you like him?

Because he's kind and smart
416
00:19:09,215 --> 00:19:10,709

seem to care about him,

Quibble's trying too hard,

to stop loving your dad;

he just wants you to like him.

enough room in your heart
