1
00:00:03,168 --> 00:00:04,738
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
You wanted to see me?
2
00:00:04,838 --> 00:00:05,973
To give me a test?
3
00:00:06,073 --> 00:00:07,977
CELESTIA:
The Crystal Empire has returned.
4
00:00:08,078 --> 00:00:11,116
You want me to help protect
an entire empire?
5
00:00:11,217 --> 00:00:13,587
It must be you
and you alone.
6
00:00:13,687 --> 00:00:15,891
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
But what if I fail?
7
00:00:15,991 --> 00:00:17,561
Let's just say the empire.
8
00:00:17,661 --> 00:00:20,066
It isn't the only thing
that's returned.
9
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,470
Go! Go!
10
00:00:22,570 --> 00:00:25,108
Sparkle-rific!
11
00:00:25,208 --> 00:00:26,810
Well, with Cadence,
putting all our strength
12
00:00:26,910 --> 00:00:28,480
into keeping the spell going,
13
00:00:28,580 --> 00:00:31,519
and me trying to keep an eye on
signs of trouble in the Arctic,
14
00:00:31,619 --> 00:00:33,189
we haven't been able
to gather much information
15
00:00:33,289 --> 00:00:34,858
from the Crystal Ponies.
16
00:00:34,958 --> 00:00:36,127
There are Crystal Ponies?
17
00:00:36,227 --> 00:00:37,496
I wish I could help you.
18
00:00:37,596 --> 00:00:39,966
But I can't seem
to remember anything
19
00:00:40,067 --> 00:00:41,470
before King Sombra
came to power.
20
00:00:42,872 --> 00:00:45,143
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
History of the Crystal Empire.
21
00:00:45,243 --> 00:00:47,213
The last page of the book
mentioned the Crystal Heart
22
00:00:47,313 --> 00:00:48,816
as the faire centerpiece.
23
00:00:48,916 --> 00:00:51,588
So I used my magic to cut
one out of the crystal block.
24
00:00:51,688 --> 00:00:53,190
The whole purpose
of the Crystal Faire
25
00:00:53,291 --> 00:00:55,628
is to lift the spirits
of the Crystal Ponies
26
00:00:55,728 --> 00:00:57,933
so the lights within them
can power the Crystal Heart,
27
00:00:58,033 --> 00:00:59,268
so that the empire
can be protected.
28
00:00:59,368 --> 00:01:01,472
I think we may have a problem.
29
00:01:01,572 --> 00:01:03,742
I didn't know
it was an actual relic.
30
00:01:03,842 --> 00:01:05,980
It's all right, Twilight.
31
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,449
( creature howling distantly )
32
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,449
Twily.

00:01:54,899 --> 00:01:57,170
( croaks )
50
00:01:58,772 --> 00:02:00,243
The empire is under attack.
51
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,264
( roars )
52
00:02:20,878 --> 00:02:22,782
I have to find
the Crystal Heart.
53
00:02:22,882 --> 00:02:25,120
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
No. You stay here with Cadence.
54
00:02:25,220 --> 00:02:28,024
She needs you,
Shining Armor.
55
00:02:28,124 --> 00:02:29,460
I'll retrieve the heart.
56
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,029
Let's do this!
57
00:02:31,130 --> 00:02:32,966
I've been trying to figure out
how I'm meant
58
00:02:33,066 --> 00:02:34,303
to pass
Celestia's test.
59
00:02:34,403 --> 00:02:36,573
Retrieving the Crystal Heart
must be it.
60
00:02:36,673 --> 00:02:38,176
But there is something
else you can do.
61
00:02:38,276 --> 00:02:40,346
Name it.
62
00:02:38,276 --> 00:02:40,346
You and the rest of our friends
63
00:02:40,446 --> 00:02:42,116
have to keep
the faire going.
64
00:02:42,216 --> 00:02:45,621
What? With that thing
moving into the empire?
65
00:02:45,721 --> 00:02:47,257
The whole purpose
of the Crystal Faire
66
00:02:47,359 --> 00:02:49,362
is to lift the spirits
of the Crystal Ponies
67
00:02:49,462 --> 00:02:51,064
so they can activate
the Crystal Heart.
68
00:02:51,164 --> 00:02:52,635
Yeah? And?
69
00:02:52,735 --> 00:02:55,004
If the Crystal Ponies
find out that King Sombra
70
00:02:55,104 --> 00:02:56,776
is trying to take over
the empire again,
71
00:02:56,876 --> 00:02:59,614
their spirits are going to be
anything but lifted.
72
00:03:01,383 --> 00:03:03,253
It won't matter if I find
the Crystal Heart.
73
00:03:03,353 --> 00:03:04,723
They won't be able
to make it work.
74
00:03:04,823 --> 00:03:07,293
You have to keep them
happy here at the faire.
75
00:03:07,393 --> 00:03:09,030
Keep the faire going
76
00:03:09,130 --> 00:03:11,100
and the Crystal Ponies'
spirits high.
77
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,137
Done and done.
78
00:03:13,237 --> 00:03:14,306
SHINING ARMOR:
Twily...
79
00:03:14,406 --> 00:03:16,911
Be careful.
80
00:03:14,406 --> 00:03:16,911
I will.
81
00:03:22,654 --> 00:03:24,858
( croaking )
82
00:03:29,933 --> 00:03:32,238
( calliope music playing )
83
00:03:43,356 --> 00:03:44,425
Okay, here's...
84
00:03:44,525 --> 00:03:46,129
( whispering inaudibly )
85
00:03:46,229 --> 00:03:47,565
Huh?
86
00:03:48,901 --> 00:03:52,139
I just found out
they're offering face-painting
87
00:03:52,239 --> 00:03:54,310
for the little ones.
Ha-ha.
88
00:03:56,447 --> 00:03:59,051
( whispers )
89
00:03:56,447 --> 00:03:59,051
Uh-huh, we can do that.
90
00:03:59,151 --> 00:04:01,991
Twilight's doing what?
91
00:04:02,091 --> 00:04:06,765
He really loves
getting his face painted.
92
00:04:06,865 --> 00:04:08,067
Ha-ha.
93
00:04:08,167 --> 00:04:11,040
Who wants a flugelhorn?
94
00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:13,811
I want a flugelhorn.
95
00:04:13,912 --> 00:04:15,780
Who else wants
a flugelhorn?
96
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,386
I want a flugelhorn!
97
00:04:22,025 --> 00:04:23,228
SPIKE:
Twilight! Wait!
98
00:04:23,328 --> 00:04:25,030
I'm coming with you.
99
00:04:25,130 --> 00:04:26,332
You can't.
100
00:04:26,433 --> 00:04:28,937
I have to retrieve
the Crystal Heart by myself.
101
00:04:29,037 --> 00:04:30,406
I know.
102
00:04:30,506 --> 00:04:33,546
I promise I won't lift
a claw to help you.
103
00:04:35,148 --> 00:04:37,320
Not a claw, Spike.
104
00:04:38,422 --> 00:04:39,790
SPIKE:
Where are we going exactly?
105
00:04:39,890 --> 00:04:41,227
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
I think I might know where
106
00:04:41,327 --> 00:04:43,062
King Sombra hid
the Crystal Heart.
107
00:04:43,162 --> 00:04:44,398
SPIKE:
The castle?
108
00:04:44,498 --> 00:04:46,001
The king would have been
counting on the fact
109
00:04:46,101 --> 00:04:48,338
that no pony would dare
come looking for it here.
110
00:04:48,438 --> 00:04:50,409
They'd have been too afraid
to even try.
111
00:04:50,509 --> 00:04:52,679
SPIKE:
I hope you're right.
112
00:04:52,779 --> 00:04:54,650
You and me both.
113
00:05:04,133 --> 00:05:06,771
What're you looking at?
114
00:05:06,871 --> 00:05:08,975
That's what I thought.
115
00:05:09,075 --> 00:05:10,711
Uh, Rainbow Dash?
116
00:05:10,811 --> 00:05:13,549
We're supposed to be acting
like nothing's wrong.
117
00:05:13,649 --> 00:05:15,387
Exactly.
118
00:05:17,423 --> 00:05:18,858
APPLEJACK:
What I mean is...
119
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,996
Maybe you should let me keep
the Crystal Ponies
120
00:05:21,096 --> 00:05:22,331
away from the fake heart
121
00:05:22,431 --> 00:05:25,303
while you show off
your jousting skills.
122
00:05:25,403 --> 00:05:27,407
Seeing my awesomeness
does have a way
123
00:05:27,507 --> 00:05:30,948
of putting ponies
into a pretty good mood.
124
00:05:33,284 --> 00:05:35,255
( sheep bleating )
125
00:05:38,392 --> 00:05:40,964
Come on, Knight Fluttershy.
126
00:05:41,064 --> 00:05:42,801
Huh?
127
00:05:41,064 --> 00:05:42,801
It's showtime.
128
00:05:42,901 --> 00:05:45,939
How y'all feeling?
Having a good time?
129
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,211
The best I've had
in over a thousand years.
130
00:05:48,311 --> 00:05:50,113
Well, that's good.
131
00:05:50,213 --> 00:05:51,984
Got to renew that spirit
of love and unity
132
00:05:52,084 --> 00:05:54,722
if you're gonna power up
that Crystal Heart, right?
133
00:05:54,822 --> 00:05:57,326
I sure would like
to see it before the ceremony.
134
00:05:57,427 --> 00:06:00,933
It's been such a long time.
135
00:05:57,427 --> 00:06:00,933
Oh, I hear you.
136
00:06:01,033 --> 00:06:02,235
But, uh, whew.
137
00:06:02,335 --> 00:06:03,938
Getting a little toasty
out here.
138
00:06:04,038 --> 00:06:07,946
Bet you'd like to cool off with
a little Crystal Empire nectar.
139
00:06:11,853 --> 00:06:14,891
Uh, you tried
the Crystal Empire fritters yet?
140
00:06:14,991 --> 00:06:17,395
Made from a traditional
Crystal Empire recipe.
141
00:06:17,495 --> 00:06:19,833
You're gonna love them.
142
00:06:19,933 --> 00:06:22,904
Uh, I hear there's
a jousting match about to start.
143
00:06:23,004 --> 00:06:25,443
You don't wanna miss that.
144
00:06:25,543 --> 00:06:27,347
Come on, Twilight.
145
00:06:27,447 --> 00:06:30,552
These Crystal Ponies are more
curious than a cat.
146
00:06:32,021 --> 00:06:34,224
( panting )
147
00:06:34,325 --> 00:06:35,661
( sighs )
148
00:06:35,761 --> 00:06:38,065
( panting )
149
00:06:38,165 --> 00:06:39,334
It's got to be here
somewhere.
150
00:06:39,434 --> 00:06:41,539
It's just got to be.
151
00:06:43,241 --> 00:06:45,211
Not a claw, Spike.
152
00:06:45,312 --> 00:06:46,380
Uh...
153
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:47,748
(laughs nervously)
154
00:06:47,848 --> 00:06:49,786
Celestia's orders.
155
00:06:55,930 --> 00:06:58,802
CELESTIA:
If the Empire is filled
with hope and love,
156
00:06:58,902 --> 00:07:02,040
those things are reflected
across all of Equestria.
157
00:07:02,140 --> 00:07:05,047
If hatred and fear
take hold--
158
00:07:08,652 --> 00:07:10,087
Of course!
159
00:07:10,189 --> 00:07:11,491
( grunts )
160
00:07:11,591 --> 00:07:13,461
What? Did you find it?
161
00:07:11,591 --> 00:07:13,461
No.
162
00:07:13,561 --> 00:07:16,132
Because this isn't
King Sombra's castle.
163
00:07:16,232 --> 00:07:18,670
SPIKE:
Well, isn't this where he lived
when he was in power?
164
00:07:18,770 --> 00:07:21,742
It is. But it didn't
look like this.
165
00:07:23,312 --> 00:07:26,017
( grunts )
166
00:07:36,034 --> 00:07:37,103
SPIKE:
Whoa.
167
00:07:37,203 --> 00:07:39,540
When did you learn to do that?
168
00:07:39,641 --> 00:07:42,412
That was a little trick
Celestia taught me.
169
00:07:43,247 --> 00:07:44,583
( gulps )
170
00:07:47,354 --> 00:07:48,422
( whimpers )
171
00:07:48,522 --> 00:07:50,292
You stay here.
172
00:07:50,392 --> 00:07:52,497
If you insist.
173
00:07:57,873 --> 00:08:00,177
Can you see
what's down there yet?
174
00:08:00,277 --> 00:08:01,446
Not yet.
175
00:08:01,546 --> 00:08:04,451
I can't even tell
how far down this goes.
176
00:08:16,372 --> 00:08:18,476
( crystal clinks )
177
00:08:19,477 --> 00:08:21,147
Spike?
178
00:08:19,477 --> 00:08:21,147
SPIKE: Yeah?
179
00:08:21,247 --> 00:08:23,083
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
Can you see outside?
180
00:08:23,183 --> 00:08:25,488
( thunder crashing )
181
00:08:27,292 --> 00:08:28,660
( growling )
182
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,630
Yes.
183
00:08:30,730 --> 00:08:33,602
Crystals.
184
00:08:35,272 --> 00:08:36,775
It's not good.
185
00:08:36,875 --> 00:08:39,413
Cadence's magic must be fading
faster than before.
186
00:08:39,513 --> 00:08:41,048
( suspenseful theme playing )
187
00:08:41,149 --> 00:08:42,518
( grunts )
188
00:08:44,087 --> 00:08:45,824
( grunting )
189
00:08:47,894 --> 00:08:49,997
SPIKE:
Twilight? Are you okay?
190
00:08:50,097 --> 00:08:51,768
Yes.
191
00:09:01,284 --> 00:09:03,087
What in the...?
192
00:09:03,187 --> 00:09:05,592
Stop...
193
00:09:05,692 --> 00:09:07,595
moving!
194
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,678
Spike,
I think it's here.
195
00:09:20,317 --> 00:09:21,754
Huh?
196
00:09:23,423 --> 00:09:25,593
What are you doing here?
197
00:09:25,693 --> 00:09:28,432
I don't know.
I opened the door and--
198
00:09:28,532 --> 00:09:30,969
And now you must go.
199
00:09:31,070 --> 00:09:32,439
Go where?
200
00:09:32,539 --> 00:09:34,242
It doesn't matter to me.
201
00:09:34,343 --> 00:09:36,480
You failed the test,
Twilight.
202
00:09:44,293 --> 00:09:46,564
I don't understand.
The test?
203
00:09:46,664 --> 00:09:48,501
Not only will you
not move on
204
00:09:48,601 --> 00:09:49,904
to the next level
of your studies,
205
00:09:50,004 --> 00:09:53,175
you won't continue
your studies at all.
206
00:09:53,275 --> 00:09:54,378
I...
207
00:09:54,478 --> 00:09:55,880
You didn't say anything
about no longer
208
00:09:55,980 --> 00:09:57,851
being your student
if I failed.
209
00:09:59,453 --> 00:10:02,391
Didn't I?
210
00:10:02,491 --> 00:10:04,295
But what do I do now?
211
00:10:04,395 --> 00:10:08,236
( evil laugh )
212
00:10:08,336 --> 00:10:11,341
( whimpers )
213
00:10:11,441 --> 00:10:15,114
SPIKE:
Twilight? Twilight!
214
00:10:15,214 --> 00:10:17,686
Twilight!
215
00:10:18,554 --> 00:10:19,957
I know you told me
to stay up there
216
00:10:20,057 --> 00:10:21,426
but you were here
for such a long time.
217
00:10:21,526 --> 00:10:23,328
And I got worried
so I came down here,
218
00:10:23,428 --> 00:10:24,933
you were just staring
at that wall.
219
00:10:25,033 --> 00:10:28,171
I was calling but I couldn't
get your attention and...
220
00:10:28,271 --> 00:10:29,440
What were you looking at?
221
00:10:29,540 --> 00:10:32,045
I mean,
it's just a wall.
222
00:10:33,446 --> 00:10:35,618
Ponyville?
How did I get...?
223
00:10:35,718 --> 00:10:38,689
No! I don't want to go.
224
00:10:38,789 --> 00:10:40,927
Please, Twilight,
don't make me.
225
00:10:41,027 --> 00:10:42,262
( door slams )
226
00:10:42,362 --> 00:10:44,366
King Sombra's dark magic.
227
00:10:44,466 --> 00:10:46,903
A doorway that leads
to your worst fear.
228
00:10:47,003 --> 00:10:48,607
We were home.
229
00:10:48,707 --> 00:10:50,610
You told me
you didn't need me anymore.
230
00:10:50,710 --> 00:10:52,581
You were sending me away.
231
00:10:52,681 --> 00:10:54,650
A fear that will never
come to pass.
232
00:10:54,750 --> 00:10:57,022
I'm never going
to send you away.
233
00:10:57,122 --> 00:10:59,660
And I'm not going
to fail my test.
234
00:11:04,301 --> 00:11:05,804
SPIKE:
What's in there?
235
00:11:05,904 --> 00:11:07,306
( sighs )
236
00:11:07,406 --> 00:11:08,576
Stairs.
237
00:11:08,676 --> 00:11:11,514
Lots and lots of stairs.
238
00:11:15,787 --> 00:11:17,892
Maybe you should
come with me this time.
239
00:11:19,495 --> 00:11:21,599
( uplifting theme playing )
240
00:11:23,468 --> 00:11:25,372
( thunder rumbling )
241
00:11:25,472 --> 00:11:26,908
( King Sombra laughing )
242
00:11:36,391 --> 00:11:40,833
( crowd cheering )
243
00:11:44,071 --> 00:11:46,576
( whimpering )
244
00:11:46,676 --> 00:11:47,744
( crowd cheering )
245
00:11:47,844 --> 00:11:49,748
( thunder rumbling )
246
00:11:51,819 --> 00:11:54,624
( trumpet blows )
247
00:11:59,331 --> 00:12:00,401
Ah!
248
00:12:00,501 --> 00:12:02,236
( screams )
249
00:12:02,336 --> 00:12:03,706
( all cheering )
250
00:12:03,806 --> 00:12:06,311
CRYSTAL PONY:
Bravo, Knight Rainbow Dash!
251
00:12:07,713 --> 00:12:09,115
( whimpers )
252
00:12:09,215 --> 00:12:11,987
Isn't there somepony else
who could take over
253
00:12:12,087 --> 00:12:14,591
the jousting demonstration
with you?
254
00:12:14,692 --> 00:12:18,098
The fate
of an entire empire
255
00:12:18,198 --> 00:12:21,003
rests on us showing
these ponies a good time.
256
00:12:21,103 --> 00:12:25,411
But, you know, if that
isn't important to you...
257
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:27,013
( sobs )
258
00:12:27,114 --> 00:12:29,752
Okay. Okay. I'll take it
easy on you next time.
259
00:12:29,852 --> 00:12:31,588
But not too easy.
260
00:12:31,688 --> 00:12:34,761
I've got a reputation
to maintain.
261
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,104
( panting heavily )
262
00:12:44,210 --> 00:12:46,648
What if this is just more
of his magic?
263
00:12:46,748 --> 00:12:49,253
He makes a door that leads
to your worst nightmare,
264
00:12:49,353 --> 00:12:52,158
why not a staircase
that goes on forever?
265
00:12:57,467 --> 00:12:59,070
Hold on to me.
266
00:13:00,372 --> 00:13:02,443
Uh...
267
00:13:02,543 --> 00:13:04,012
Whoa.
268
00:13:07,452 --> 00:13:09,790
Whoa! Yah!
269
00:13:18,906 --> 00:13:21,042
( ponies whimpering )
270
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,349
RARITY:
Excuse me. Pardon me.
271
00:13:25,450 --> 00:13:27,454
I am running out
of weaving materials
272
00:13:27,554 --> 00:13:29,156
for the traditional
crafts booth.
273
00:13:29,256 --> 00:13:31,227
I just made a hat
out of three pieces of hay
274
00:13:31,327 --> 00:13:32,663
and a drinking straw.
275
00:13:32,763 --> 00:13:34,834
I made it work, but still.
276
00:13:34,934 --> 00:13:38,707
We gotta do everything we can
to keep this thing going.
277
00:13:38,807 --> 00:13:40,410
The princess isn't looking
so good.
278
00:13:40,510 --> 00:13:44,083
I can't imagine her magic
is gonna last much longer.
279
00:13:44,183 --> 00:13:45,719
It's gonna be fine.
280
00:13:45,819 --> 00:13:47,723
These ponies are gonna power up
that Crystal Heart
281
00:13:47,823 --> 00:13:49,259
when the time comes,
282
00:13:49,359 --> 00:13:51,129
and we won't be needing
her magic anyway.
283
00:13:51,229 --> 00:13:53,166
PINKIE PIE:
I sure hope that time
comes soon.
284
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:56,004
Even I can't keep this party
going forever.
285
00:13:56,104 --> 00:13:58,375
Whoa!
286
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,563
This isn't
the Crystal Heart.
287
00:14:10,663 --> 00:14:13,667
Oh, of course it isn't.
288
00:14:13,769 --> 00:14:15,705
The real one is--
289
00:14:13,769 --> 00:14:15,705
On its way.
290
00:14:15,805 --> 00:14:18,710
I was going to say
"being polished"
291
00:14:18,810 --> 00:14:21,582
to buy us some more time.
292
00:14:18,810 --> 00:14:21,582
Oops.
293
00:14:21,683 --> 00:14:24,420
( King Sombra cackling )
294
00:14:24,521 --> 00:14:25,656
It's him.
295
00:14:25,756 --> 00:14:28,561
KING SOMBRA:
Crystal heart...
296
00:14:28,661 --> 00:14:30,097
TWILIGHT SPARKLE:
Whoa!
297
00:14:30,197 --> 00:14:31,499
( laughing )
298
00:14:31,599 --> 00:14:33,537
I actually studied
gravity spells
299
00:14:33,637 --> 00:14:35,406
thinking it might be
on my test.
300
00:14:35,506 --> 00:14:38,111
Turns out,
I was prepared for this!
301
00:14:38,211 --> 00:14:39,413
Wooo-hoo!
302
00:14:39,514 --> 00:14:40,883
( laughs )
303
00:14:54,407 --> 00:14:56,510
( alarm sounds )
304
00:14:56,611 --> 00:14:57,980
( growls )
305
00:15:02,421 --> 00:15:05,827
( evil laugh )
306
00:15:07,697 --> 00:15:09,767
( thunder crashing )
307
00:15:07,697 --> 00:15:09,767
( wind howling )
308
00:15:09,867 --> 00:15:11,737
The heart?
Where is the crystal?
309
00:15:11,837 --> 00:15:14,442
Here. It rolled over to me
when you dropped it.
310
00:15:14,542 --> 00:15:16,346
Don't move!
311
00:15:18,249 --> 00:15:20,419
You can move.
Just not toward me.
312
00:15:25,094 --> 00:15:27,065
How could I have been
so foolish?
313
00:15:27,165 --> 00:15:28,801
I was just so eager
to get it.
314
00:15:28,901 --> 00:15:31,239
Then when I saw
what was going on outside, I...
315
00:15:31,339 --> 00:15:32,975
SPIKE:
You have to get out of there.
316
00:15:33,075 --> 00:15:35,179
You have to brings the Crystal
Heart to Princess Cadence.
317
00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:38,717
If you don't,
you fail Celestia's test.
318
00:15:38,819 --> 00:15:41,122
King Sombra is already
attacking the empire.
319
00:15:41,222 --> 00:15:43,059
He could reach
the Crystal Ponies
320
00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:44,161
at any moment.
321
00:15:44,261 --> 00:15:47,567
Reach Princess Cadence,
my brother, my friends.
322
00:15:47,667 --> 00:15:52,109
There may not be enough time
for me to find a way to escape.
323
00:15:56,516 --> 00:15:57,919
You have to be the one
324
00:15:58,019 --> 00:15:59,789
to bring the Crystal Heart
to the faire.
325
00:15:59,889 --> 00:16:01,124
Me? But, Twilight--
326
00:16:01,224 --> 00:16:02,293
Go.
327
00:16:02,393 --> 00:16:04,197
But--
328
00:16:02,393 --> 00:16:04,197
Go!
329
00:16:10,341 --> 00:16:11,877
( ponies whimpering
and screaming )
330
00:16:11,977 --> 00:16:13,213
APPLEJACK:
Now don't y'all worry
331
00:16:13,313 --> 00:16:15,049
your pretty,
little Crystal heads.
332
00:16:15,149 --> 00:16:18,121
The real Crystal Heart
will be here any second.
333
00:16:18,221 --> 00:16:20,760
I don't know
if they believe you.
334
00:16:20,860 --> 00:16:23,231
I don't know
if I believe me.
335
00:16:24,566 --> 00:16:26,336
( gasps )
336
00:16:30,643 --> 00:16:33,214
He's back!
I can't take it!
337
00:16:33,314 --> 00:16:34,383
Ah!
338
00:16:34,484 --> 00:16:35,819
( growls )
339
00:16:35,919 --> 00:16:37,455
Ah! King Sombra.
340
00:16:37,555 --> 00:16:42,097
My crystal slaves.
341
00:16:42,197 --> 00:16:43,767
( whimpering )
342
00:16:45,470 --> 00:16:47,106
( grunts )
343
00:16:47,206 --> 00:16:48,274
Hey! Up here!
344
00:16:48,374 --> 00:16:49,444
Spike?
345
00:16:49,544 --> 00:16:51,247
I got the Crystal Heart!
346
00:16:52,949 --> 00:16:55,454
That is mine!
347
00:16:58,025 --> 00:17:00,830
( ominous theme playing )
348
00:17:05,438 --> 00:17:07,375
Spikey-wikey!
349
00:17:23,670 --> 00:17:25,273
Huh?
350
00:17:28,111 --> 00:17:29,547
CRYSTAL PONY:
Who is that?
351
00:17:29,647 --> 00:17:32,385
Behold!
The Crystal Princess!
352
00:17:33,353 --> 00:17:35,858
The Crystal Heart
has returned.
353
00:17:35,958 --> 00:17:37,862
Use the light
and love within you
354
00:17:37,962 --> 00:17:40,434
to insure that King Sombra
does not.
355
00:17:52,321 --> 00:17:53,456
What?
356
00:17:53,556 --> 00:17:56,027
No! No!
357
00:17:56,128 --> 00:17:57,296
Stop!
358
00:18:05,978 --> 00:18:07,513
( majestic theme playing )
359
00:18:07,613 --> 00:18:09,485
Oh!
360
00:18:19,636 --> 00:18:22,106
( screams )
361
00:18:30,055 --> 00:18:32,458
( uplifting theme playing )
362
00:18:45,481 --> 00:18:47,251
( all cheering )
363
00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:50,390
( sighs )
364
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:54,163
Good job, Spike.
365
00:19:00,207 --> 00:19:02,243
RARITY:
I do so wish it was permanent.
366
00:19:02,343 --> 00:19:05,115
Did you see how my mane
just absolutely sparkled?
367
00:19:05,216 --> 00:19:08,321
But good things are better
when they're a rarity.
368
00:19:08,421 --> 00:19:09,890
Oh!
369
00:19:09,991 --> 00:19:11,159
SHINING ARMOR:
Everything's going to be okay.
370
00:19:11,259 --> 00:19:14,499
You've got to stop
saving my rump like this.
371
00:19:14,599 --> 00:19:16,969
It's starting
to get embarrassing.
372
00:19:17,069 --> 00:19:20,376
Wasn't me who saved you
in the end, it was Spike.
373
00:19:20,476 --> 00:19:23,983
It's just a test.
Maybe she'll let you retake it.
374
00:19:24,083 --> 00:19:26,888
I don't think she's going
to give me a new test.
375
00:19:31,195 --> 00:19:32,898
Keep it together, buddy.
376
00:19:32,998 --> 00:19:35,335
Gotta stay strong...for Twilight
377
00:19:35,436 --> 00:19:36,972
It's beautiful.
378
00:19:37,072 --> 00:19:39,977
I wish it had been me
who ultimately made it so.
379
00:19:40,077 --> 00:19:41,680
But it wasn't.
380
00:19:41,780 --> 00:19:43,884
Twilight, as I understand it,
381
00:19:43,984 --> 00:19:46,088
Spike brought Princess Cadence
the Crystal Heart
382
00:19:46,188 --> 00:19:48,058
because you weren't sure
how quickly
383
00:19:48,158 --> 00:19:49,962
you could find a way
to escape the tower.
384
00:19:50,062 --> 00:19:53,333
You weren't willing to risk
the future of the citizens
385
00:19:53,433 --> 00:19:54,636
of the Crystal Empire
386
00:19:54,736 --> 00:19:57,307
in an effort
to guarantee your own.
387
00:19:57,408 --> 00:19:59,678
Far better that I have
a student who understands
388
00:19:59,779 --> 00:20:00,681
the meaning
389
00:20:00,781 --> 00:20:02,083
of self-sacrifice,
390
00:20:02,183 --> 00:20:04,954
than one who only looks out
for her own best interests.
391
00:20:05,054 --> 00:20:07,259
Does this mean...?
392
00:20:09,429 --> 00:20:12,435
She's totally
going to lose it.
393
00:20:12,535 --> 00:20:13,770
Keep it together, buddy.
394
00:20:13,870 --> 00:20:16,509
I gotta stay strong
for Twilight.
395
00:20:18,812 --> 00:20:20,515
