WOW.
WHAT A GORGEOUS DAY.
RAINBOW DASH MUST HAVE
GOTTEN UP EARLY FOR ONCE
AND CLEARED
ALL THE CLOUDS AWAY.
I BET ALL OF PONYVILLE
IS GONNA BE OUT
ENJOYING THE SUNSHINE.
WHAT?
WHERE IS EVERYPONY?
[ GASPS ]
IS IT SOME SORT
OF PONY HOLIDAY?
NOT THAT I KNOW OF.
DOES MY BREATH STINK?

NOT MORE THAN USUAL.
IS IT...ZOMBIES?!

WHO?
THE ZOMBIE PONY?

AAH!

DID YOU SEE...ZAKORA?
APPLE BLOOM, I TOLD YOU
NEVER TO SAY THAT NAME.
WELL, I SAW HER
GLANCE THIS WAY.
GLANCE E-E-EVILLY
THIS WAY.
AND THEN A BUNCH OF YOU FLIP OUT
FOR NO GOOD REASON.
NO GOOD REASON?!
YOU CALL PROTECTING YOUR KIN
NO GOOD REASON?
WHY, AS SOON AS MY SISTER
SAW ZAKORA RIDING INTO TOWN,
SHE STARTED SHAKING
IN HER LITTLE HORSESHOES.
[ Shakily ] DID NOT.
SO I SWEPT HER UP
AND BROUGHT HER HERE.
I WALKED HERE MYSELF.
FOR SAFEKEEPING.
APPLEJACK,
I'M NOT A BABY!
I CAN TAKE CARE
OF MYSELF!
NOT FROM

A ZEBRA.
AND HER STRIPES AREN'T
A FASHION CHOICE, RARITY.
THEY'RE WHAT
SHE WAS BORN WITH.
[ WHIMPERS ]
BORN WHERE?
I NEVER SEEN A PONY
LIKE THAT IN THESE PARTS,
EXCEPT...HER.
WELL, SHE'S PROBABLY
NOT FROM HERE,
AND SHE'S NOT A PONY.
MY BOOKS SAY THAT ZEBRAS COME
FROM A FARAWAY LAND.
BUT I'VE NEVER SEEN HER
IN PONYVILLE.
WHERE DOES SHE LIVE?
THAT'S JUST IT.
SHE LIVES IN...
THE EVERFREE FOREST.
[ CRASH! ]

UH, SORRY.
THE EVERFREE FOREST
JUST AIN'T NATURAL.
THE PLANTS GROW...

AND THE CLOUDS MOVE...

DOING HER EVIL...STUFF!
WHY, SHE'S SO EVIL,
I EVEN WROTE A SONG ABOUT HER.

WOW. CATCHY.
IT'S A WORK

THIS IS ALL JUST
A LOT OF GOSSIP AND RUMORS.
NOW, TELL ME, WHAT EXACTLY HAVE
YOU ACTUALLY SEEN ZAKORA DO?
WELL...
ONCE A MONTH,
SHE COMES INTO PONYVILLE.
OOH!
THEN...SHE LURKS
BY THE STORES.
OH, MY.
AND THEN
SHE DIGS AT THE GROUND.
GOOD GRACIOUS!
OKAY, I'M SORRY,
BUT HOW IS ANY OF THIS BAD?
MAYBE SHE COMES TO TOWN
TO VISIT.
YEAH. MAYBE SHE'S JUST
TRYING TO BE NEIGHBORLY.
AND MAYBE SHE'S NOT LURKING
BY THE STORES.
MAYBE SHE'S GOING TO THEM,
LURK-FREE, TO DO SOME SHOPPING.
YEAH.
EVERYPONY LIKES TO SHOP.
YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK?
APPLE BLOOM, HUSH
AND LET THE BIG PONIES TALK.
I AM A BIG PONY.
WHAT ABOUT
DIGGING AT THE GROUND?
YOU'VE GOT TO ADMIT
THAT'S WEIRD.
WHAT IF SHE'S DIGGING
FOR INNOCENT CREATURES?
I AM SURE THERE'S AN EXPLANATION
FOR EVERYTHING ZAKORA DOES.
AND IF ANYPONY HERE
WERE ACTUALLY BRAVE ENOUGH
TO APPROACH HER,
SHE WOULD FIND OUT
THE TRUTH.
WELL, I'M BRAVE ENOUGH.
I'M GONNA FIND OUT MYSELF.
[ GASPS ]
[ WHIP! ]
YOU PONIES

IT'S A SKILL

IT'S CONJURED WITH POTIONS

OR SHE CURSED MY HORN!
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!
NONE OF THESE BOOKS HAVE A CURE.
[ GROANS ]
THERE HAS TO BE
A REAL REASON FOR THIS!
AN ILLNESS?
AN ALLERGY?!
A CURSE!
I SAID A REAL REASON --
SOMETHING THAT POINTS
TO SOMETHING REAL.
HOW ABOUT THIS ONE?
"SUPERNATURALS"?
SPIKE, THE WORD
"SUPERNATURAL"
REFERS TO THINGS LIKE GHOSTS
AND SPIRITS AND ZOMBIES,
WHICH ARE
AS MAKE-BELIEVE AS CURSES.
THIS BOOK
IS JUST A BUNCH OF HOOEY.
BUT WHAT IF YOU'RE WRONG,

WHAT IF THIS

NOW, START LOOKING FOR MORE

IS OVERWHELMING.

ALL THE THINGS YOU ASKED FOR.
WHAT IN PONYVILLE
IS GOING ON HERE?

WHY WOULDN'T I BE?
BECAUSE ZAKORA
IS AN EVIL ENCHANTRESS
WHO CURSED US AND WAS GONNA
COOK YOU UP INTO SOUP.
[ BOTH LAUGH ]
OH, TWILIGHT.
DID THOSE SILLY FILLIES
FINALLY GET IN YOUR HEAD?
YOU KNOW THERE'S
NO SUCH THING AS A CURSE.
APPLE BLOOM, SWEETIE,
YOU CAN'T JUST STAND THERE
AND TELL ME THIS ISN'T A CURSE.
THIS ISN'T A CURSE.
IF YOU
WILL REMEMBER BACK,
THE WORDS I SPOKE
WERE QUITE EXACT.
BEWARE! BEWARE,
YOU PONY FOLK!
THOSE LEAVES OF BLUE
ARE NOT A JOKE.
IT WAS A WARNING
ABOUT THAT BLUE PLANT.
IT'S CALLED "POISON JOKE."
THAT PLANT
IS MUCH LIKE POISON OAK,
BUT ITS RESULTS
ARE LIKE A JOKE.
WHAT IN THE HAY
DOES THAT MEAN?
IT MEANS THIS PLANT
DOES NOT BREED WRATH.
INSTEAD, THIS PLANT
JUST WANTS A LAUGH.
WILL SOMEPONY
PLEASE TALK NORMAL?
I THINK
WHAT SHE'S SAYING
IS THAT WHEN WE RAN IN
TO SAVE APPLE BLOOM,
WE RAN INTO
THE POISON JOKE.
ALL OUR PROBLEMS ARE JUST
LITTLE JOKES IT PLAYED ON US.
LITTLE JOKES?!
VERY FUNNY.
OKAY. FINE.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CAULDRON?
AND THE CHANTING?
AND THE CREEPY DECOR?
TREASURES OF THE NATIVE LAND
WHERE I AM FROM.
THIS ONE SPEAKS "HELLO,"
AND THIS -- "WELCOME."
NOT WELCOMING AT ALL,
IF YOU ASK ME.
THE WORDS I CHANTED
WERE FROM OLDEN TIMES --
SOMETHING YOU CALL
A NURSERY RHYME.
BUT THE CAULDRON,
THE APPLE BLOOM SOUP?
LOOKY HERE, TWILIGHT, THAT POT
OF WATER WASN'T FOR ME.
IT WAS FOR ALL THESE
HERBAL INGREDIENTS.
THE CURE FOR POISON JOKE IS
A SIMPLE, OLD NATURAL REMEDY.
YOU JUST GOT TO TAKE
A BUBBLE BATH.
BUT I TRIED TO FIND A CURE
IN ALL MY BOOKS
AND COULDN'T FIND
ANYTHING.
WHAT BOOK
HAS THIS NATURAL REMEDY?
Zakora:
HERE IS THE BOOK. YOU SEE?
SAD THAT YOU LACK IT
IN YOUR LIBRARY.
ACTUALLY,
I DO HAVE THIS BOOK.
BUT I DIDN'T LOOK INSIDE BECAUSE
THE TITLE WAS SO...WEIRD.
"SUPERNATURALS --
NATURAL REMEDIES AND CURE-ALLS
THAT ARE SIMPLY SUPER."
I...I...
I'M SO SORRY, ZAKORA.
I HAD THE ANSWER
THE WHOLE TIME,
IF ONLY I'D BOTHERED
TO LOOK INSIDE.
[ LAUGHS ]
MAYBE NEXT TIME
YOU WILL
TAKE A SECOND LOOK
AND NOT JUDGE
THE COVER OF THE BOOK.
[ LAUGHS ]
ZAKORA,
WOULD YOU BE KIND ENOUGH
TO MIX UP ANOTHER BATCH
OF THE HERBAL BATH?
MIX IT UP,
I CERTAINLY WILL.
YET I AM MISSING
AN HERB FROM PONYVILLE.
BUT WHENEVER
ZAKORA COMES TO TOWN,
ALL THE SHOPS
ARE MYSTERIOUSLY CLOSED.
OH, WELL, I THINK
WE CAN HELP YOU WITH THAT.
LOOK, ROSE.
HOW AWFUL!
THE WICKED ENCHANTRESS
HAS CURSED THEM ALL.
THE HORROR!
THE HORROR!
[ ALL SCREAM ]
EVERYPONY GET INSIDE.
RUN, PONIES! RUN!
DAISY,
WE NEED TO TALK.
"DEAR PRINCESS CELESTIA,
"MY FRIENDS AND I ALL LEARNED
AN IMPORTANT LESSON THIS WEEK --
"NEVER JUDGE A BOOK
BY ITS COVER.
"SOMEONE MAY LOOK UNUSUAL
OR FUNNY OR SCARY,
"BUT YOU HAVE TO LOOK PAST THAT

"REAL FRIENDS DON'T CARE

"IT'S THE CONTENTS OF A PONY

"AND A GOOD FRIEND,
