00:00:00I got your message, the sun is shining, and the open road is calling our names
00:00:07My bag is packed so, are you ready? Cause to lose this day would be a shame
00:00:14There's a rainbow waiting, a song is playing, and I can't wait to hit the road with you
00:00:22There's a rainbow waiting, and we got rainbow road tripping to do
00:00:30Road trip! Okay, not technically a road trip, because we're taking that
00:00:42Beat you to the balloon! Nope, I'm gonna beat you!
00:00:51I'm gonna beat you!
00:01:01No, I'm gonna...
00:01:03Howdy
00:01:05Okay, I was fourth
00:01:16Yeah? Well, I was fifth
00:01:18That's not even...
00:01:21Ah, yeah!
00:01:23But I beat you!
00:01:25Y'all are both still late
00:01:26We gotta shove off sooner or we'll miss the tailwind
00:01:29Don't worry, we wouldn't have left without you
00:01:32Well, that goes without saying, darling
00:01:34After all, Rainbow Dash is the guest of honor at the Rainbow Festival
00:01:39Has anypony seen Twilight? It's not like her to be late for an adventure
00:01:46I'm coming, I'm coming!
00:01:53Sorry, I just had to pack up a few books and papers to grade
00:01:57And by few, she means slightly less than I'm able to lift
00:02:01Wait, you're bringing work to a festival?
00:02:06Yeah! It's supposed to be a non-stop fun-o-rama party!
00:02:11Reading papers is fun! It's relaxing and rewarding and...
00:02:15Too much to talk about right now
00:02:16Let her loose, Spike!
00:02:26Keep an eye on things for me
00:02:27And feel free to follow those class assignments while I'm gone
00:02:30It's my top priority!
00:02:35Have fun, everypony!
00:02:39Um, why aren't we going anywhere?
00:02:43Hmm, the basket's too heavy
00:02:46Rarity?
00:02:48How dare you! I brought the itsiest valise!
00:02:52Sorry to do this, Twilight, but...
00:02:55My papers!
00:03:00They'll keep till we get back
00:03:02Oh...
00:03:04Midnight!
00:03:05Bye-bye!
00:03:05Keep an eye on things!
00:03:07See ya!
00:03:08And remember, whatever happens at the Rainbow Festival
00:03:10I want to hear all about it when you get back!
00:03:13Bye-bye!
00:03:14Bye-bye!
00:03:14We'll miss you!
00:03:15Did somepony mention something about a spa in...
00:03:30Where is it we're going again?
00:03:43Hope Hollow!
00:03:45Or, as I like to call it...
00:03:48Rainbow Dash Fan Central!
00:03:51You're gonna be like this the whole trip, ain't you?
00:03:54You know it!
00:03:56I mean, look at this letter!
00:03:58They love me there!
00:03:59Dear Rainbow Dash, thank you for agreeing to be our guest
00:04:04at this year's famous Hope Hollow Rainbow Festival
00:04:07The many members of your fan club...
00:04:10Ahem!
00:04:12Ugh...
00:04:13...are looking forward to your visit
00:04:15You and your friends will be staying at our famous luxury rainbow resort and spa
00:04:19where your every whim will be catered to
00:04:22Oh, I accept that challenge!
00:04:24I have so many wins!
00:04:26Oh, look!
00:04:27There's a famous butterfly garden, too!
00:04:31Hmm...
00:04:32You know, it's strange that we never heard of this festival before
00:04:35especially since everything in the town is so well-known!
00:04:38At this year's festival, you can eat treats at the traditional rainbow bakery booth
00:04:44Sing your favorite rainbow-themed songs at the karaoke competition
00:04:48Bakery and karaoke!
00:04:51It's like they sink into my soul!
00:04:53And try our famous rainbow trout catch and release activity
00:04:57Huh!
00:04:58Now that sounds right up my river!
00:05:00Plus, we get to watch the mayor give Rainbow Dash an award!
00:05:04I've got tips on the cheering section!
00:05:06An award for what, exactly?
00:05:13Huh?
00:05:14Showing up?
00:05:15General coolness?
00:05:16Heh heh heh!
00:05:16All of the above?
00:05:18Well, we're so glad you invited us along!
00:05:21Yeah!
00:05:22It's gonna be one long party!
00:05:24Which starts...
00:05:26Now!
00:05:28A hundred bottles of pop on the wall
00:05:30A hundred bottles of pop
00:05:31Take one down, pass it around
00:05:33Ninety-nine bottles of pop on the wall
00:05:35Ninety-nine bottles of pop on the wall
00:05:37Ninety-nine bottles of pop
00:05:38Two bottles of pop on the wall
00:05:41Two bottles of pop
00:05:42Take it down, pass it around
00:05:44One bottle of pop on the wall
00:05:46And now one more time!
00:05:48A hundred bottles of pop on the wall
00:05:50Six times too many?
00:05:54Shouldn't we be there by now?
00:05:56I thought so too
00:05:58Maybe we should've turned left at that last cloud instead of right
00:06:01Oh, it's getting darker by the minute
00:06:05I can't see anything!
00:06:12Oh
00:06:12I spy with my little eye
00:06:15A rainbow!
00:06:17Great!
00:06:18We're playing that game now?
00:06:19No!
00:06:21I really do spy a rainbow!
00:06:26Wow!
00:06:27That's the biggest rainbow I've ever seen!
00:06:29And we're heading right for it!
00:06:32Don't worry!
00:06:33We'll pass right through it!
00:06:34Rainbows aren't solid!
00:06:39Tell that to the rainbow!
00:06:42I don't think that's a rainbow!
00:06:43It's a rainbow billboard!
00:06:45Oh, no!
00:06:48Hang on, everypony!
00:06:54I don't think that's walking!
00:06:57We're gonna crash!
00:07:07Rainbow Dash!
00:07:08Fluttershy!
00:07:09Let's get everypony out!
00:07:15Thanks, y'all!
00:07:30That basket could've been us!
00:07:32Where are we?
00:07:35Ah-ha!
00:07:36Welcome to Hope Hollow!
00:07:38Home of the famous...
00:07:40Rainbow Festival!
00:07:44We've arrived!
00:07:45And there's no pony here to greet us?
00:07:48Good thing, too!
00:07:49The gifts of honor and her friends
00:07:51just destroyed the town sign!
00:07:53Rainbow Dash!
00:07:54Did you let her say where our hotel is?
00:07:57Uh...
00:07:58The...
00:08:00Middle of Town!
00:08:03Hmm...
00:08:04Doesn't really help much
00:08:05when you don't know where the middle is!
00:08:07Let's start looking!
00:08:14Hmm...
00:08:14Hmm...
00:08:19Funny!
00:08:19You'd think a big luxury resort would be sorta, well, easier to spot.
00:08:38Yeah!
00:08:39It seems like the whole town's shut down!
00:08:43Oh, look!
00:08:44There's some pony!
00:08:46Hmm...
00:08:47Hello!
00:08:51Oh!
00:08:52Maybe you can help us!
00:08:53We're here for the Rainbow Festival!
00:08:56Oh!
00:08:56A Rainbow Festival?
00:08:58Yeah!
00:08:59You know, the one where I'm the guest of honor!
00:09:01Ha-ha-ha!
00:09:04Ha-ha!
00:09:05Yeah!
00:09:07Oh, for crying in the mud!
00:09:09What's Sunny done now?
00:09:11Excuse me?
00:09:12I mean...
00:09:13Um...
00:09:14You'd best talk to Mayor Skies about that!
00:09:16Great!
00:09:17And where would we find him?
00:09:19City Hall!
00:09:20Uh...
00:09:20But it's closed till tomorrow, don't you know?
00:09:23Is there something I can help you with?
00:09:25Uh, yes, please!
00:09:26Could you direct us to the Hope Hollow Luxury Resort?
00:09:29Oh!
00:09:34Oh, you mean the hotel?
00:09:36Uh-huh!
00:09:37That's easy!
00:09:38There's only one in town!
00:09:40Could you, uh, give us directions?
00:09:42No need!
00:09:43You're there!
00:09:45I mean, here!
00:09:52Hotel Hope!
00:09:54Also known as the Town Information Center and Library!
00:09:57My name's Petunia Petals, by the way!
00:10:00Hello!
00:10:02I'm the librarian here!
00:10:04And the information guide!
00:10:07And the hotel manager!
00:10:09A historian!
00:10:10Chef!
00:10:10Portrait painter!
00:10:12Um...
00:10:12I'm Rainbow Dash!
00:10:14And this is...
00:10:15Everypony!
00:10:16Oh!
00:10:17Howdy!
00:10:18Well, hello, Everypony!
00:10:20You just wait one hoofshake and I'll take you to the room!
00:10:24The room?
00:10:25There's only one!
00:10:27Makes it easier to find!
00:10:29Here it is!
00:10:38The Royal Suite!
00:10:39The Royal Suite!
00:10:49How rustic and charming!
00:10:53Isn't it just?
00:10:55I couldn't help noticing.
00:10:57There are only three beds.
00:11:01Okay, four.
00:11:02Oh, there's a pop-out, too.
00:11:06It can be a little tricky.
00:11:10There she is.
00:11:12Sleeps, too.
00:11:13You'll be all fresh and ready to see the mare in the morning.
00:11:17Sleep tight.
00:11:21Did anypony notice anything strange about Petunia?
00:11:24Other than that she just called this place the royal suite.
00:11:28Hard to tell on this light, but she looked a little grey, didn't she?
00:11:33Probably from all the dust up here.
00:11:39Aw, this room's not so bad.
00:11:41All it needs is some balloons,
00:11:44stringers,
00:11:44yippity-pum,
00:11:46and a banana.
00:11:48Good thing I brought some.
00:11:51Oh, and look.
00:11:53It comes with a cute little spider.
00:11:57Hello, spider.
00:12:02Hmm.
00:12:04Ugh.
00:12:05Sorry, everypony.
00:12:07I didn't know what I was getting you into.
00:12:10Aw.
00:12:10The most important thing is we're all together.
00:12:13Yeah.
00:12:14As long as we have beds to sleep in,
00:12:16we're set.
00:12:17Oh!
00:12:18Oh!
00:12:18Oh!
00:12:18Oh!
00:12:19Oh!
00:12:27Well,
00:12:28it wasn't the worst night of sleep ever.
00:12:31Definitely in the top three.
00:12:34Oh, would that be the bottom three?
00:12:35Why is everypony looking at us?
00:12:44Maybe they recognize Rainbow Dash.
00:12:46Or Princess Twilight.
00:12:48But probably me.
00:12:50No.
00:12:51I think they're staring because we're the only part of this town that isn't...
00:12:55Gray.
00:12:57What do you mean?
00:12:58Look around.
00:12:59All the colors here are gone.
00:13:02That's so strange.
00:13:04It's just like I noticed about Petunia last night.
00:13:08Everything's mostly gray.
00:13:09Oh!
00:13:10Hello!
00:13:11Except the stuff that's grayer.
00:13:14Oh my.
00:13:15I knew something was different that...
00:13:16This is so weird.
00:13:21Huh?
00:13:22From the way they're gawking at us,
00:13:24it appears they think we're the odd ones.
00:13:27Maybe they don't even notice.
00:13:29It might be rude to mention it.
00:13:31I wonder what caused this.
00:13:33We can ask the mayor.
00:13:35Yeah.
00:13:35If we ever find him.
00:13:41Quit shoving!
00:13:43Shoving?
00:13:44These are pro-level moves I'm doing, sis.
00:13:46Yeah!
00:13:49Come on!
00:13:50Let's go!
00:13:58Huh?
00:14:10Don't pout, dear.
00:14:11It'll wrinkle your withers.
00:14:13I'm not pouting, sweetums,
00:14:15but I am hurt by your comment.
00:14:18I thought the pie I baked was quite tasty.
00:14:20I didn't say it wasn't.
00:14:22You didn't say it was.
00:14:24Watch where you're going.
00:14:25You don't own the sidewalk, you know.
00:14:26Well, I never.
00:14:28Well, look at that.
00:14:41Some ponies fixing up our balloon.
00:14:42Oh, goodness.
00:14:44Oh, goodness.
00:14:49This is unfortunate.
00:14:51Bad with a side of terribly awful.
00:14:53Excuse me.
00:14:54Sorry.
00:14:55Hurry.
00:14:55Well, stuff me in an olive and call me a pimento.
00:15:05It's the Rainbow Dash.
00:15:07You made it.
00:15:08It is you, isn't it?
00:15:11Pretty sure, yeah.
00:15:13Oh, thanks, Celestia.
00:15:15I saw the balloon, thought the worst,
00:15:17and, well, you're here.
00:15:19Allia.
00:15:19Welcome to the Hope Hollow Annual Rainbow Festival.
00:15:25I'm Twilight Sparkle,
00:15:26and you must be...
00:15:28Sunny Skies,
00:15:29the mayor of this lovely town
00:15:31and pleased as a poplar tree to meet you.
00:15:34We're very sorry about your rainbow billboard, Mr. Mayor.
00:15:37It was dark and...
00:15:38Oh, don't give it a second thought.
00:15:40That old thing needed repair anyway.
00:15:42Haven't used it since...
00:15:44Well, never mind.
00:15:46Anyway, once your balloon's fixed up,
00:15:48Torque can take care of the billboard.
00:15:51Everypony, meet Torque Wrench,
00:15:52our town handy pony.
00:15:54She offered to repair your balloon for you.
00:15:56He volunteered me.
00:15:58She'll have it fixed in a jiffy.
00:16:01If by jiffy you mean this'll take all day.
00:16:05So, you got in last night.
00:16:07I wish I'd known.
00:16:08I would have been here to greet you.
00:16:10Where'd y'all stay?
00:16:11At the luxury hotel.
00:16:13Petunia Pedals let us in.
00:16:15Oh, well, of course she did.
00:16:18She's something, I'll tell you what.
00:16:19I'd be lost without her.
00:16:22I mean, the town would be.
00:16:26Mayor, I hope you don't mind my asking,
00:16:28but is there a reason your town is...
00:16:30faded?
00:16:31Oh, you spotted that, did you?
00:16:34Well, it's a long story.
00:16:36Why don't I show you the town highlights first?
00:16:39Here's our famous outdoor spa with the all-natural mud bath.
00:16:53Pretty, huh?
00:16:57Maybe we could see some of the Rainbow Festival activities from the brochure.
00:17:01Of course.
00:17:02The bakery booth is there.
00:17:04Huh?
00:17:06Huh?
00:17:07Or will be.
00:17:08We're still setting up, but we got a lot of great things planned.
00:17:12And the butterfly garden?
00:17:14Oh, that's right over here.
00:17:16Oh, let me fix that.
00:17:24So, none of the butterflies are actually...
00:17:28Real?
00:17:29Oh, no.
00:17:30What with the flowers not having color and all,
00:17:32the butterflies don't really come around much anymore.
00:17:35I'm almost afraid to ask, but the brochure mentioned fishing.
00:17:39Fishing?
00:17:40Well, not sure what you mean.
00:17:41Our famous rainbow trout?
00:17:43Oh, yeah, sure.
00:17:45Well, you don't fish for him, exactly.
00:17:48You just kind of talk to him.
00:17:51He's right over...
00:17:52That's funny.
00:17:56Where'd our trout go?
00:17:57Oh, Mr. Mayor.
00:17:59I'm just taking my lunch now, okay?
00:18:06Um, so, no big deal.
00:18:09Well, actually, okay, yes.
00:18:10Kind of a big deal.
00:18:11But the brochure also mentioned the karaoke contest?
00:18:15Right here.
00:18:20The trout doubles on harmonica.
00:18:25How multi-talented of him.
00:18:29Good thing I'd bring my own karaoke party.
00:18:32With me, wherever I go.
00:18:34Whoa, whoa.
00:18:35Ow!
00:18:37Well, uh, that's the big tour.
00:18:40Mayor Skies, I don't understand.
00:18:45Your rainbow festival isn't quite as you described.
00:18:49And the resort hotel wasn't what it was cracked up to be, either.
00:18:53Except for all the cracks.
00:18:55None of these things are as pictured in your brochure.
00:18:58Well, maybe I exaggerated a little, but I'd intended on having everything ready.
00:19:05It's just kind of hard getting anypony excited about anything in this town anymore.
00:19:09I didn't think you'd come if you knew the truth.
00:19:12The truth?
00:19:13Oh, there is no rainbow festival.
00:19:19No rainbow festival?
00:19:21No fan club?
00:19:22Believe me, I didn't mean to...
00:19:24Bring us here for nothing?
00:19:26Think of all the papers I could be grading.
00:19:28If you just let me...
00:19:29We should leave this very moment.
00:19:31Balloon's not fixed yet.
00:19:32Maybe we should let the mayor explain.
00:19:36Uh, guess I should start at the beginning.
00:19:39A long time ago, when my grandpa Skies was mayor, Hope Hollow was different.
00:19:44They used to call this town the end of the rainbow.
00:19:48Because everything you'd ever want, you could find right here.
00:19:57Next door neighbors chatting over whitewood fences.
00:20:02Stopping on the street to say hello.
00:20:05When friends did well, we sang their praises.
00:20:10Brought soup to comfort them when they felt low.
00:20:14That was our town at the end of the rainbow.
00:20:18No pots of gold, her very treasure.
00:20:26Just everypony looking after each other.
00:20:30The truest reaches cannot be measured.
00:20:35It was a lesson that had kept us together.
00:20:39In our town at the end of the rainbow.
00:20:42To honor our fine town, my grandpa Skies decided
00:20:51To throw a party each and every year.
00:20:55They planned for weeks, cooked per day, celebrated 50 ways.
00:21:01So everypony would gather here.
00:21:04In our town at the end of the rainbow.
00:21:08Grandpa made a gizmo called the Rainbow Generator.
00:21:12To paint the sky with lots of colors, shiny, bold, and bright.
00:21:16To remind us all, together we are greater.
00:21:20And darkness never wins against the coming of the light.
00:21:25Grandpa passed it on to dad, then it was my turn.
00:21:29To make the pretty rainbows in the sky.
00:21:33It filled my heart with pride to see our whole town gathered gratefully.
00:21:37Where we were sure there would never be an end to the rainbow.
00:21:51Then fences went up, we lost track of our neighbors.
00:21:55Each year passing, dimming spirits all around.
00:21:58The happy days came to an end.
00:22:03Nopony had time to spend together in the town.
00:22:08I thought I knew exactly what the festival needed.
00:22:15A bigger, better rainbow would surely make them see it.
00:22:25But the extra magic was too much for the rainbow generator.
00:22:33And I'm the one who brought the rainbow to an end.
00:22:43That's how our town, our little pony town.
00:22:48That's how our town saw the end of the rainbow.
00:22:55That is the saddest story song I've ever heard.
00:23:13I tried for a long time to get everypony interested in the festival again.
00:23:18To remember what it's like to come together as a community and share the fun.
00:23:22But nopony even bothered listening.
00:23:26That's why I wrote to you, Rainbow Dash.
00:23:28You were my last hope.
00:23:30I figured if a pony of your stature came to town,
00:23:33it would get everypony excited about putting on the festival again.
00:23:36I mean, Rainbow's even part of your name.
00:23:39Yeah, I can see that.
00:23:41Mr. Mayor, what kind of magic did you use on the rainbow generator?
00:23:45Oh, I'm not sure.
00:23:46I didn't know what I was dealing with.
00:23:50I only wanted to help.
00:23:52But instead, I sucked all the color out of the town.
00:23:55That billboard's one of the only things that didn't change.
00:23:59To me, it's a reminder of what we can be.
00:24:01Keeps the hope in Hope Hollow.
00:24:04Hmm.
00:24:04If I could find out the type of magic you used,
00:24:07I might be able to reverse the spell.
00:24:09You mean, you're gonna stay?
00:24:11Uh-huh.
00:24:12Nothing we like better than a challenge.
00:24:16Especially when it comes to helping ponies.
00:24:18You don't know how clam-happy this all makes me.
00:24:21Thank you kindly.
00:24:23We'll do whatever we can to bring back your rainbow festival.
00:24:27I won't fib to you.
00:24:28It won't be easy.
00:24:30It's gotten so no pony even talks to each other anymore.
00:24:34It might be tough, but...
00:24:36We have a little experience bringing ponies together.
00:24:38Yay!
00:24:42This is exactly like planning a party.
00:24:44Only bigger.
00:24:45Because it's a festival!
00:24:48Which means more cupcakes!
00:24:50Woo-hoo!
00:24:51Ooh!
00:24:54Yeah!
00:24:55I've got a date with a bakery booth!
00:24:58Ha-ha!
00:24:58Ha-ha!
00:25:00Ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:25:02Um, I'd better go with her.
00:25:04Hmm, an overall stylistic look to unify the sentiment of the celebration.
00:25:11That's what this festival needs.
00:25:14You mean like a rainbow?
00:25:16Yes, darling, yes, yes.
00:25:17But more complex, more thematic.
00:25:20Something like...
00:25:21Ooh!
00:25:22Something like that!
00:25:26Formidable!
00:25:27The biggest challenge is getting your town interested in a rainbow festival and everything's so...
00:25:33Gray!
00:25:34I think if we can bring the color back, it'll solve everything.
00:25:37Yeah, I'm with you there, but...
00:25:39Rainbow Dash, I need your help.
00:25:42Mr. Mayor, seriously.
00:25:44Is there a fan club?
00:25:46Oh, you betcha!
00:25:47They're around...
00:25:49Somewhere.
00:25:50Ugh.
00:25:50Any tools I can borrow, Your Honor?
00:25:54I'm gonna spruce up that billboard to let everypony know this here rainbow festival's back in business.
00:25:59Oh, that's music to my ears.
00:26:02Torque Wrench, let's get our guest tooled up, what do you say?
00:26:05She's gonna put our rainbow back up.
00:26:07Oh, yippee.
00:26:15Oh, yeah, if you don't mind, I, uh, I have a speech to work on.
00:26:20See you around.
00:26:21Hmm.
00:26:28So, what's your plan?
00:26:30If magic caused this, maybe magic can solve it.
00:26:44Oh, I was afraid of that.
00:26:46I've never seen any magic like this before.
00:26:49Heh, let me try.
00:26:51I mean, rainbow's part of my name, right?
00:27:08Oh, there we go.
00:27:10Yeah, that's all I got.
00:27:22Oh, thanks for trying.
00:27:24I guess I need to do more research.
00:27:29Look out!
00:27:30No, you look out!
00:27:32Are you okay?
00:27:47Oh.
00:27:47Why did you zig in front of me like that?
00:27:52I didn't zig, you zigged, I zagged!
00:27:54That's no excuse for...
00:27:55Guys, guys, hold on!
00:27:58It was just an accident.
00:27:59An accident that happened in front of you.
00:28:02Ugh, I'm so embarrassed.
00:28:05All of our lives we've been wanting to meet you and...
00:28:08Wait, so you're the fan club?
00:28:12You've heard of us?
00:28:14Barley's the president.
00:28:16Pickle's the assistant president.
00:28:18Well, what do you know?
00:28:20The mayor was telling the truth about something.
00:28:22Anyway, you're my brother's favorite Wonderbolt.
00:28:24And my sister's favorite Wonderbolt, too.
00:28:27He knows all your best moves.
00:28:29So does she!
00:28:30We practice all of them, every day!
00:28:35But we really can't do them.
00:28:39Well, it's true.
00:28:40Go ahead, ask her.
00:28:41No, you ask her.
00:28:43No, you ask her.
00:28:44No, you!
00:28:45No, you do it!
00:28:45No, you do it!
00:28:47Somepony asked me!
00:28:50Do you think maybe you could give us a lesson?
00:28:53Just a tiny one?
00:28:54Show us some of your moves?
00:28:59Well, you promise to listen and work hard and practice?
00:29:05Yes, absolutely practice!
00:29:08Tell you what, if I like what I see,
00:29:10the three of us will put on a show at the Rainbow Festival.
00:29:16There's still a Rainbow Festival?
00:29:19And we're going to perform at it?
00:29:21I think the whole town should know
00:29:23there's a couple of future Wonderbolts living here.
00:29:27Come on, we got work to do.
00:29:31Did you hear that?
00:29:33I think some of this can be saved, but we'll need some fresh lumber.
00:29:51Uh, Tork, the mayor said maybe you could lend a hoof.
00:29:55Hmm, him and his crazy schemes.
00:29:57What's your business in this, anywho?
00:29:59Hmm?
00:30:00Well, for one thing, we're helping the mayor.
00:30:02And for another, Granny Smith always says,
00:30:05you break something, you fix it.
00:30:07And any job you do, you should be proud of.
00:30:10Proud of being a repair pony?
00:30:14Well, absolutely.
00:30:16It's a pretty rare talent to have.
00:30:18Nice work on that balloon basket, by the way.
00:30:21Reweaving all that straw is no joke.
00:30:24Oh, yeah, well, thanks for, well, noticing.
00:30:27That's one of my designs.
00:30:50Hello?
00:30:58Whoa, no way.
00:31:01Stack my pancakes.
00:31:02Are you really the rarity?
00:31:04Uh, it's just rarity.
00:31:06Uh, and I couldn't help but notice that you've got...
00:31:09I love ya.
00:31:11I love you so much.
00:31:12Your work, I mean, your designs, your taste, your eye for beauty.
00:31:16Well, thank you.
00:31:17They're the perfect canvas for me to fancy up.
00:31:21Yes, about that.
00:31:22The hat, the bow, the scarf, the...
00:31:25Do you like them?
00:31:26Very charming.
00:31:28Ah, thank ya.
00:31:29Those are Kerfuffle Originals.
00:31:31I'm Kerfuffle, spelled like it sounds with a double...
00:31:34For the fuff.
00:31:36I should really stop talking now.
00:31:39I do hope you don't mind my asking.
00:31:41But with all this talent,
00:31:43why don't you simply display your own work
00:31:45instead of adding to others?
00:31:48Ah!
00:31:49Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:31:51Oh, oh, no.
00:31:53I couldn't.
00:31:55It's not good enough by itself.
00:31:58Au contraire.
00:31:59Take this shawl.
00:32:01Hoof dyed.
00:32:02Nicely woven.
00:32:03A piece of art by itself.
00:32:05Imagine if you could work in color.
00:32:07Oh, I do imagine.
00:32:09I mean, that's how I design things.
00:32:11I feel in my heart what the colors are.
00:32:14Like this scarf.
00:32:16This stripe is red, then orange, yellow.
00:32:19Like a rainbow.
00:32:21How would you like to work with me
00:32:22as the official assistant designer
00:32:24of the Rainbow Festival?
00:32:27Really?
00:32:28Work with you?
00:32:30I can't believe it.
00:32:32Woo!
00:32:34Wait, there's still a Rainbow Festival?
00:32:37Darling, if we have anything to do with it,
00:32:41not only will there be a festival,
00:32:43it will be the most stylish anypony
00:32:45in this town has ever seen.
00:32:47Now let's get started.
00:32:48You like it?
00:33:12I love it.
00:33:13I just never thought...
00:33:14That a teeny town like Hope Hollow
00:33:16would have a library this grand?
00:33:18We may be small,
00:33:19but we're well-read.
00:33:21I make sure of it.
00:33:23Mayor Sunny was right.
00:33:25You are something.
00:33:27Did he really say that?
00:33:29Oh, that silly unicorn.
00:33:31Did he say anything else?
00:33:33I mean, uh...
00:33:34Anywho, what can I do you for?
00:33:36I don't suppose you have a magic section?
00:33:39Arcane, elemental, or theory of?
00:33:49Let's see.
00:33:50If 50 cupcakes makes a party,
00:33:52that means for the festival we need...
00:33:54Divide by two, carry the one.
00:33:57More.
00:33:58Super more!
00:33:59We're gonna need some baking help!
00:34:03Huh?
00:34:04It looks like it's closed.
00:34:14Aw, that's so sad!
00:34:16We could only use the ones from our yard, Loving.
00:34:18Oh, darling, stop it!
00:34:20Excuse me!
00:34:21I see you're taking your pie for a walk,
00:34:23and I was worried...
00:34:23We're not interested.
00:34:25It's getting,
00:34:26so a pony can't even walk down the street
00:34:28without being terrorized.
00:34:30Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:34:31That's not terrorized!
00:34:33This...
00:34:34...is terrorized!
00:34:37Ugh.
00:34:39So, how would you like to be a part of the official baking team
00:34:43of the Rainbow Festival?
00:34:45There's still a Rainbow Festival?
00:34:47Uh-huh.
00:34:48We'll have a booth with cupcakes and pastries and fun,
00:34:51and we're gonna start with this pie!
00:34:52Let the taste test begin!
00:34:54What kind of pie did you say this was supposed to be?
00:35:06Apricot?
00:35:07Are you sure?
00:35:08It's kind of...
00:35:09crunchy.
00:35:11Not that there's anything wrong with that.
00:35:14Well, the apricots are from our very own tree.
00:35:18In our very own yard.
00:35:20Behind our very own house.
00:35:23Yeah.
00:35:23Maybe we should get a look at this tree.
00:35:30All right, rookies.
00:35:32Show me what you got.
00:35:35She sounds just like we always imagined she'd sound.
00:35:38Only 20% cooler?
00:35:41Well,
00:35:42aren't you gonna fly or something?
00:35:45Yes, sir!
00:35:45I mean, ma'am.
00:35:47Ugh.
00:35:47Ugh.
00:35:52Okay?
00:35:53Oh!
00:35:55Wow!
00:35:55Ooh!
00:36:03Whoa-oah!
00:36:11liar!
00:36:12Fancy flying is something you have to work up to.
00:36:16Even I didn't become rainbow dash in one day two days
00:36:24Everybody's gotta learn the basics before they can show off
00:36:39You'll get there, but first let's start with a single flip
00:36:46If you don't mind my asking, you don't sound like the other ponies here in town
00:36:58Oh, we weren't born here. We're originally from Manhattan
00:37:03But it was so big. All those ponies crammed together, never talking to each other
00:37:09We heard Hope Hollow was just the opposite, so we moved here
00:37:13And it was wonderful
00:37:16For a while
00:37:18What happened?
00:37:20Uh, things changed
00:37:21Ah, here
00:37:23This is the tree
00:37:25This is where the apricots in my pie came from
00:37:28Well, I'm no expert, but I don't think these are very ripe
00:37:35Apricots are supposed to be orange
00:37:38Well, that's the problem, isn't it? With hardly any colors in this town, one apricot looks like another
00:37:45What about that tree? Its apricots are big and juicy
00:37:49Oh, we can't use the apricots from that tree
00:37:54Sure you can! I gotta do a-
00:37:55Hey! Stay away from my tree!
00:37:58What was that?
00:38:01Just old Moody Root
00:38:03He's made it quite clear he won't share his apricots
00:38:06He hasn't even said hello in ages
00:38:09Have you tried saying hello to him?
00:38:12What?
00:38:13Well, no, but...
00:38:16Mr. Moody Root? Are you there?
00:38:19Who wants to know?
00:38:21I'm Fluttershy! Your apricot tree is beautiful! So healthy, you must take very good care of it
00:38:29Well, I try to, uh, plant food, good water, and now and then keeps my apricots happy
00:38:36I bet that's why you have so many of them
00:38:39You must always be busy making things
00:38:41Jam, cobbler, pie
00:38:44Nope, I just eat them!
00:38:46Although, pie does sound pretty good
00:38:49What an equestria is she doing?
00:38:52I haven't the foggiest here
00:38:54Doing what she does best!
00:38:57Your neighbors were just about to bake some pies
00:39:00You know them, right?
00:39:02Mr. and Mrs. Huffington?
00:39:04Mr. Moody Root?
00:39:06Um, hello, uh...
00:39:09Hello, Mr. Root
00:39:12But they're a little short on apricots
00:39:16If only there was some apricots we could use!
00:39:24Oh, yes, of course! We'd be happy to bake you a pie!
00:39:28Two or three pies, even!
00:39:31So, you mean if I give you my apricots?
00:39:34What a great idea!
00:39:39Then everypony can share!
00:39:41What do you think, Mr. Moody Root?
00:39:45Oh, oh well...
00:39:47Wait for it...
00:39:50Got a ladder?
00:39:56We can just pick it from your side of the fence!
00:39:58Um, yes, of course!
00:40:00This way!
00:40:01A prism curse?
00:40:16An erasure spell?
00:40:17None of these are big enough to make a whole town lose its color on their own!
00:40:21Unless...
00:40:22Unless...
00:40:24Oh, for the love of cheddar!
00:40:27Um, yes, I think this works.
00:40:29Just...
00:40:30There's this thing...
00:40:31There's the end of the door...
00:40:32There's just a blanket...
00:40:34There's a little bit of a...
00:40:35There's a little bit of a...
00:40:36There's a little bit of a...
00:40:36There's a little bit of a...
00:40:37Mayor Skies!
00:40:38What is all this?
00:40:40Princess Twilight!
00:40:41Welcome to our town's Rainbow Room!
00:40:44Anything you want to know about each year's festival from the very beginning!
00:40:48The pictures!
00:40:49They're in color!
00:40:51Sure are!
00:40:52Oh...
00:40:53Those are from happier times...
00:40:56Back when there still was a festival...
00:40:59Seems even though we faded...
00:41:02The memory never did...
00:41:04I come here sometimes for...
00:41:06Inspiration...
00:41:08I need plenty for this speech I'm writing...
00:41:12Biggest one of my life!
00:41:13Oh!
00:41:14Didn't see you there!
00:41:16Sunny!
00:41:16I didn't know you were here!
00:41:19Ah!
00:41:20Just leaving!
00:41:21I gotta finish this!
00:41:22Well...
00:41:23See you later!
00:41:25Wow!
00:41:27The festival was really something, wasn't it?
00:41:30It used to be wonderful!
00:41:32It brought the whole town together for a long time!
00:41:36And these pictures...
00:41:38Are from the last festival!
00:41:40You can see...
00:41:42It didn't go well!
00:41:43Right!
00:41:45The mayor's magic in the generator caused the colors to go!
00:41:48That's what Sunny thinks!
00:41:50He blames himself for it, but...
00:41:52I'm still not convinced it was anything other than an accident!
00:41:56There's something strange about this...
00:41:58I just can't put my huff on it...
00:42:01If only the generator hadn't been destroyed!
00:42:06Not all of it was!
00:42:11I don't keep it out, because I know it hurts the mayor to see it!
00:42:17Mind if I borrow this?
00:42:18I don't keep it out, because I don't know it hurts the mayor to see it!
00:42:23I don't know it hurts the mayor to see it!
00:42:24I don't know it hurts the mayor to see it!
00:42:25Ha ha ha!
00:42:26Great job!
00:42:27It's even better than it was before, don't you know?
00:42:33Rainbow Festival!
00:42:34Didn't know it was still going on!
00:42:36Sure is!
00:42:37Bigger and better than ever!
00:42:39I hope!
00:42:41Tell all your friends!
00:42:42Can we go, Mama?
00:42:44I suppose so!
00:42:46Why not?
00:42:47Mr. Mayor, I hope you don't mind, but...
00:42:59Where'd you find that?
00:43:00I gave it to her, Sunny.
00:43:02She has an idea.
00:43:03Best idea would just be to throw that thing in the trash heap.
00:43:07My theory is that the generator magnifies whatever magic it uses, makes it stronger.
00:43:11So if we could rebuild it, and use one of the reversal spells I just read about, it could work to bring color back to the town!
00:43:20Even if we could get it working again, which is quite a tall order...
00:43:28Not for a gifted repair pony, who I just happen to know.
00:43:32Let me take a look-see.
00:43:35Yeah, I could give her a go.
00:43:37Huh.
00:43:38I don't want to get my hopes up, but...
00:43:40Yahoo!
00:43:42Don't worry.
00:43:43I'll get to work.
00:43:43Um, how's your speech coming, Sunny?
00:43:48I'd be happy to help you with it, if you'd like.
00:43:51Uh, oh, no, you couldn't.
00:43:53Uh, thanks, but, uh, I have to do a little mayor-type business, don't you know?
00:43:57But I'll check back in a little bit to see how everything's going.
00:44:02Hmm, he's acting so peculiar.
00:44:05From what I've seen of the mayor, how can you tell exactly when peculiar kicks in?
00:44:20Hmm, thought of knowing your pie was this good, I'd ain't given you those apricots ages ago.
00:44:27Mr. Hoffington did all the baking.
00:44:30Hmm, inspired by you, Snookums.
00:44:33Say, the whole town should know about this, your pie.
00:44:39Oh, don't worry.
00:44:40They will.
00:44:42We're gonna give it away at the Rainbow Festival!
00:44:46Wait, what?
00:44:47There's still a Rainbow Festival?
00:44:50Mm-hmm.
00:44:50Well, here it is.
00:45:03Pacha hoof-failed some of the parts myself, but it's as good as new.
00:45:08Hoo-wee!
00:45:09This looks amazing, Tork!
00:45:11No pony else could have pulled this off.
00:45:13Thank you so much for your help.
00:45:15It was a real challenge, but turns out, that was part of the fun.
00:45:27Whoa!
00:45:28Did-did y'all see that?
00:45:33Now we need to test it.
00:45:35Should we call the mayor?
00:45:36Might be best to make sure it works first.
00:45:38I'd hate to disappoint him.
00:45:41Uh, Twilight?
00:45:43I think I saw-
00:45:44In a moment, Applejack.
00:45:45This is important.
00:45:46Yeah, but turn on the generator.
00:45:47Hmm.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:53Huh!
00:46:01Huh!
00:46:04Well, look at that!
00:46:05Oh, isn't it beautiful?
00:46:07That's what the generator's always done.
00:46:10For years and years!
00:46:12Now we just add magic, and...
00:46:23Hmm.
00:46:24Hmm.
00:46:24Oh, I'm sorry.
00:46:38I thought for sure it would work.
00:46:44Let's not tell the mayor.
00:46:46It would break his heart.
00:46:48No.
00:46:49We have to tell him we failed.
00:46:50We can't bring the color back.
00:46:52Hmm.
00:46:55Hmm.
00:46:56Twilight!
00:46:57I really think you should see this.
00:46:59You betcha-
00:47:00We did it!
00:47:01Huh?
00:47:04Huh?
00:47:08Everything you need for the Rainbow Festival bake sale!
00:47:11Uh-huh!
00:47:12Uh-huh!
00:47:14Courtesy of the Huffington's.
00:47:16And Mr. Moody Root!
00:47:18Heh-heh.
00:47:19Ooh!
00:47:20Everything looks delicious!
00:47:22Mr. Moody Root!
00:47:24Why, I haven't seen you in the library in ages!
00:47:27High time I came back!
00:47:29Hey, you got any of them there, cookbooks?
00:47:31Huh?
00:47:31Huh?
00:47:32Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:47:39Hey!
00:47:41They're pretty good!
00:47:43They've been practicing their tails off for the big show!
00:47:47What big show?
00:47:48The Rainbow Festival!
00:47:50They're the official entertainment!
00:47:54Ooh!
00:47:56Ah!
00:47:56Ah!
00:47:57Ah!
00:47:57Ah!
00:47:58Ah!
00:47:58Ah!
00:47:58Ah!
00:47:59Ah!
00:47:59Ah!
00:48:01Ah!
00:48:02Landing still needs a little work!
00:48:04You're all here!
00:48:05Wonderful!
00:48:06You can help us set up our cart!
00:48:09Kerfuffle's official Rainbow Festival accessories!
00:48:13Ta-da!
00:48:14Ha!
00:48:15Whoa-ho-ho!
00:48:17Nice stuff!
00:48:18And I designed color-matched accessories for each of ya!
00:48:22Um, I can't help but notice that the color-matched accessories don't have much color!
00:48:27Well, of course not, silly. The town doesn't have any color, remember?
00:48:32Oh, right.
00:48:34Oh, but don't worry. I know where the colors are supposed to be.
00:48:39An orange scarf for Applejack, red leggings for Fluttershy.
00:48:46The pink flower Leia's for, well, you know who.
00:48:51Know who?
00:48:57And look at my purple kerchief. Isn't it divine?
00:49:01The blue goggles are for Rainbow Dash.
00:49:04Oh-ho-ho!
00:49:05And I think I have some that might match for you two.
00:49:10Whoa!
00:49:11Whoa!
00:49:12And something very special for Princess Twilight.
00:49:16Wing-bling! In every shade of the rainbow, don't you know?
00:49:24Kerfuffle, this is amazing!
00:49:27Everypony, you've done great work!
00:49:32I just wish I could have done my part.
00:49:35I hate to admit it, but I'm stuck.
00:49:37I don't know how to make the town's color come back.
00:49:42That's what I've been trying to tell you!
00:49:44It is coming back!
00:49:48Whoa!
00:49:51Whoa!
00:49:52Whoa!
00:49:52What's happening?
00:49:56What's happening?
00:49:57Something wonderful!
00:49:59But how?
00:50:01It wasn't the generator.
00:50:03Which means something else must have drained the town's color in the first place.
00:50:07I have to get back to the library.
00:50:14I thought so!
00:50:16Look, in the second photo, when the generator goes off, this pony is walking away.
00:50:21But on the third photo, when all the color's gone, he's back where he was.
00:50:26Which means...
00:50:26We have to tell the mayor!
00:50:31Tell me what?
00:50:33Sunny!
00:50:34Have you seen what's happening outside?
00:50:36Oh, I've been in here for a while working on my speech.
00:50:38Maybe we should just show him.
00:50:42Who wants apricot pies?
00:50:45Best pies in Hope Hollow!
00:50:47Pies for sale!
00:50:49Yummy-licious!
00:50:51Hello there, Mr. Huffington, Mrs. Huffington.
00:50:54Been a while?
00:50:56How lovely to see you!
00:51:00Oh!
00:51:00What's better than one pie?
00:51:02Lots of pies!
00:51:04Official Rachel's Festival goodness right here, now!
00:51:08Over here, darlings!
00:51:12Just look what kerfuffle has come up with!
00:51:14I never knew you did such great work.
00:51:17I have to visit your shop.
00:51:19Hey, you got anything waterproof?
00:51:21Mm-hmm.
00:51:27Oh!
00:51:29But...
00:51:30Colors!
00:51:31So, you were able to reverse the generator?
00:51:33The generator had nothing to do with it.
00:51:36And never did.
00:51:37So, none of it was my fault?
00:51:40No, you big doofus!
00:51:42How many times have I tried to tell you that?
00:51:45All those years you blamed yourself for nothing!
00:51:47These photos from the library explain everything.
00:51:51Once I realized they were out of order,
00:51:53it proved that the town's colors got dim before you turned on the generator.
00:51:57Boy, howdy!
00:51:58Am I glad to hear that!
00:51:59But then, what did cause it?
00:52:02It's called hopeless magic.
00:52:05Everypony was already giving up on each other.
00:52:07Losing hope.
00:52:08Then, when the generator blew up, it must have been the last straw.
00:52:12It took all the hope out of the town for good.
00:52:14Along with the color.
00:52:15But now, there's a different kind of magic.
00:52:19Of everypony coming together again.
00:52:22Just the way you wanted it, Mayor.
00:52:24What do you know?
00:52:25There is still a rainbow festival.
00:52:28And we'd better get it started.
00:52:29This town's been waiting long enough.
00:52:32The generator's working again, Mr. Mayor.
00:52:34Just the way your grandpa built her.
00:52:36I just hope my speech lives up to the occasion.
00:52:41Attention, please!
00:52:44Welcome to the brand new Hope Hollow Annual Rainbow Festival.
00:52:48And here's the pony who made it all possible,
00:52:51Mayor Sunny Skye!
00:52:55I am as proud as a two-tailed peacock to see you all here today
00:53:00to once again celebrate our little town at the end of the rainbow.
00:53:04Yeah!
00:53:06And I can't give enough thanks to Rainbow Dash,
00:53:12Princess Twilight,
00:53:14Pinkie Pie,
00:53:16Fluttershy,
00:53:18Rarity,
00:53:19and Applejack.
00:53:21My grandpa started this festival to celebrate us,
00:53:25the ponies of Hope Hollow.
00:53:27It's you who brought friendship back to our town
00:53:30and all the bright colors that come with it.
00:53:33We just have to always remember to reach a hoof out to our neighbors,
00:53:40to respect and listen and talk to each other.
00:53:43You never know what just saying hello to somepony can do.
00:53:49So, without further ado...
00:53:51Here we go, this is the moment, yeah!
00:53:54Let the rainbow festival begin!
00:53:58Ha-ha!
00:53:59Oh, what's happening?
00:54:18It's exactly as I imagined it!
00:54:29That was a beautiful speech, Sunny.
00:54:38What?
00:54:39Oh, no, that wasn't my speech.
00:54:42But, uh, then what have you been writing all day?
00:54:45Well, uh, another speech.
00:54:47I mean, it's for later, but...
00:54:50Ah, flapjacks.
00:54:51I guess now's as good a time as any.
00:54:53Petunia, you've never given up on me, or the town.
00:54:59You always had hope when we had none,
00:55:02and I can't imagine a day without you.
00:55:06You're the pony who brings color into my life.
00:55:09Petunia Petals, will you marry me?
00:55:13Of course, you silly goose!
00:55:16Attention, everypony!
00:55:28Introducing, Hope Hollow's very own...
00:55:32Junior Wonderbolts!
00:55:34Junior Wonderbolts!
00:55:37Did you hear what she called us?
00:55:39Did you hear what she called us?
00:55:42Junior Wonderbolts!
00:55:44Ha-ha-ha-ha-right!
00:55:46Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

00:56:13Ha-ha-ha!
00:56:14Ha! Now this is something I'm proud to be a guest of honor for!
00:56:36And it looks like there's a butterfly garden after all!
00:56:39Only one more thing can make this rainbow festival better!
00:56:45Oh, not more karaoke, darling?
00:56:49What? No!
00:56:50A trust DJ!
00:57:00Now that's a party!
00:57:03We're living in color!
00:57:05Step out of the shadows and into the light
00:57:10Where it's bright and you might see all the colors you are
00:57:13Or any color you wanna be
00:57:16That your mind can see
00:57:17And wear them bright like a shining star
00:57:20Why just be black and white?
00:57:23No need to hide all those colors inside
00:57:27Cause when they shine up bright
00:57:30It just feels right
00:57:32To be living in color
00:57:34We'll be living in color
00:57:38To be living in color
00:57:41We'll be living in color
00:57:45Make up any colors that you can devise
00:57:51Make some up
00:57:52Watch the joy as it multiplies
00:57:55Make a rainbow and you will see
00:57:57How together we are like
00:57:59One when we harmonize
00:58:01Why just be black and white?
00:58:04Why just be black and white?
00:58:04No need to hide all those colors inside
00:58:07Cause when we shine so bright
00:58:11It just feels right
00:58:13To be living in color
00:58:15Hello my friend, it's a big bright yellow
00:58:31Violet's what you get when you're feeling mellow
00:58:34Red is the part where your heart starts to glow
00:58:38In the mood, in the groove, in to go
00:58:41Blue is the sky, spinning high as can be
00:58:44Orange can amaze, bringing days that are sunny
00:58:48Green and serene, take a breath, feel new
00:58:51Feel all the living colors
00:58:54There's a rainbow in you
00:58:56Now we're living in color
00:59:00Yeah, we're living in color
00:59:03Now we're living in color
00:59:07Yeah, we're living in color
00:59:10We're all living in color
00:59:14We're all living in color
00:59:17We're all living in color
00:59:20We're all living in color
00:59:24We're all living in color
00:59:28There's a rainbow waiting
00:59:40A song is playing
00:59:42And I can't wait to hit the road with you
00:59:46There's a rainbow waiting
00:59:48And we got rainbow road tripping to do
00:59:53Ah, ah, ah, ah, ooh, ah, ah, ah
