00:00:00,900 --> 00:00:03,036
( tender theme playing )

2
00:00:03,836 --> 00:00:05,638
( squeaking )

3
00:00:09,709 --> 00:00:12,912
Ooh, I wish the mail pony
would just come already.

4
00:00:13,012 --> 00:00:14,814
I can't wait another minute
to find out

5
00:00:14,914 --> 00:00:17,017
if Rainbow Dash
got in or not.

6
00:00:17,117 --> 00:00:20,520
Pinkie Pie, you're more nervous
than Rainbow Dash.

7
00:00:20,620 --> 00:00:22,222
I'm not nervous at all.

8
00:00:22,322 --> 00:00:24,156
When I get
into the Wonderbolt Academy--

9
00:00:24,257 --> 00:00:26,726
"If" you get in?
"If" you get in?

10
00:00:26,826 --> 00:00:27,960
Don't jinx it.

11
00:00:28,061 --> 00:00:30,029
I'm telling you,
it's in the bag.

12
00:00:30,129 --> 00:00:31,230
Don't jinx it.

13
00:00:31,330 --> 00:00:33,666
She is the best flyer
in Ponyville.

14
00:00:33,766 --> 00:00:34,934
In Ponyville?

15
00:00:35,034 --> 00:00:36,635
( upbeat theme playing )

16
00:00:36,735 --> 00:00:40,139
I'm probably the best flyer
in all of Equestria.

17
00:00:40,239 --> 00:00:42,341
I wouldn't be surprised
if they just went ahead

18
00:00:42,441 --> 00:00:45,945
and made me a Wonderbolt
on the first day.

19
00:00:46,045 --> 00:00:47,580
Got a letter here
for Rainbow Dash.

20
00:00:50,182 --> 00:00:51,784
( wistful theme playing )

21
00:00:51,884 --> 00:00:53,653
I didn't get in.

22
00:00:53,753 --> 00:00:55,454
( gasps )

23
00:00:55,554 --> 00:00:56,889
Gotcha.

24
00:00:56,990 --> 00:00:58,391
( laughs )

25
00:00:59,258 --> 00:01:01,160
You guys are so gullible.

26
00:01:01,260 --> 00:01:04,063
Like I wasn't gonna get in.

27
00:01:04,163 --> 00:01:08,468
I'm just so happy for you.

28
00:01:08,568 --> 00:01:10,803
Uh, thanks.

29
00:01:10,903 --> 00:01:13,072
( straining )

30
00:01:13,172 --> 00:01:16,376
Pinkie Pie,
I kind of need to get going.

31
00:01:18,878 --> 00:01:21,013
Okay. I'm done.

32
00:01:21,113 --> 00:01:22,281
Sooner I get there,

33
00:01:22,381 --> 00:01:25,118
sooner I get to show them
my stuff.

34
00:01:25,918 --> 00:01:27,186
See you guys in a week.

35
00:01:27,286 --> 00:01:30,690
Good luck.
Won't need it.

36
00:01:32,225 --> 00:01:35,994
Don't forget to write.

37
00:01:36,095 --> 00:01:38,298
( voice echoing )
( rumbling )

38
00:01:39,331 --> 00:01:41,601

Oh, yeah.
This is gonna be sweet.

53
00:02:54,406 --> 00:02:56,876
SPITFIRE:
Well, lookie what we got here.

54
00:02:56,976 --> 00:02:57,911
( ominous theme playing )

55
00:02:58,011 --> 00:02:59,378
Bet you all think

56
00:02:59,478 --> 00:03:01,380
you're Wonderbolt material,
don't you?

57
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,516
ALL:
Yes, ma'am!

58
00:03:03,616 --> 00:03:06,418
Think you've got what it takes
to be an elite flyer?

59
00:03:06,518 --> 00:03:08,387
ALL: Yes, ma'am!
Well, then,

60
00:03:08,487 --> 00:03:10,189
let me be the first
to tell you

61
00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:11,791
you don't!

62
00:03:11,891 --> 00:03:14,393
If you had what it took
to be an elite flyer,

63
00:03:14,494 --> 00:03:17,396
you'd already be
a Wonderbolt.

64
00:03:17,496 --> 00:03:19,499
Still think
you're something special?

65
00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:22,302
No, ma'am.

66
00:03:24,904 --> 00:03:26,639
( whimpers )

67
00:03:30,243 --> 00:03:31,544
You think you're hot stuff?

68
00:03:31,644 --> 00:03:33,045
( whimpering )

69
00:03:33,145 --> 00:03:34,914
You look like
you're the worst flyer

70
00:03:35,014 --> 00:03:36,315
in the whole academy.

71
00:03:36,415 --> 00:03:38,617
You'll probably quit
after the first day.

72
00:03:38,717 --> 00:03:41,854
No, ma'am.
I'd never quit, ma'am.

73
00:03:41,954 --> 00:03:43,056
Ha.

74
00:03:43,156 --> 00:03:44,556
What about you?

75
00:03:44,657 --> 00:03:46,658
Bet you couldn't fly
past the first flagpole

76
00:03:46,758 --> 00:03:49,629
without getting winded.
Try me, ma'am.

77
00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:51,563
What's that?

78
00:03:51,663 --> 00:03:53,733
Let me show you
what I've got, ma'am.

79
00:03:53,833 --> 00:03:56,836
Oh, you want a chance
to prove yourself, huh?

80
00:03:56,936 --> 00:03:58,070
Yes, ma'am.

81
00:03:58,170 --> 00:04:00,139
Well, then,
now's your chance.

82
00:04:00,239 --> 00:04:01,874
Give me 500 laps.

83
00:04:01,974 --> 00:04:03,876
All of you!
( all groan )

84
00:04:03,976 --> 00:04:05,144
Now!

85
00:04:05,244 --> 00:04:06,646
( blows whistle )

86
00:04:11,150 --> 00:04:12,552
( upbeat theme playing )

87
00:04:17,356 --> 00:04:18,691
( all coughing )

88
00:04:18,791 --> 00:04:20,959
Lap 499.

89
00:04:21,059 --> 00:04:24,096
One more lap to go.

90
00:04:24,197 --> 00:04:26,599
You're on.

91
00:04:34,073 --> 00:04:35,174
Five hundred.

92
00:04:35,274 --> 00:04:37,377
( screeching )

93
00:04:38,778 --> 00:04:39,912
Not bad...

94
00:04:40,012 --> 00:04:42,214
for a couple of newbies.

95
00:04:42,314 --> 00:04:44,683
Name's Lightning Dust.
Rainbow Dash.

96
00:04:44,783 --> 00:04:46,686
Wanna grab some grub
in the mess hall?

97
00:04:46,786 --> 00:04:48,387
Definitely.

98
00:04:48,487 --> 00:04:49,889
( tender theme playing )

99
00:04:54,893 --> 00:04:58,831
Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash hasn't
even been gone 24 hours yet.

100
00:04:58,931 --> 00:05:00,832
Give her a chance
to settle in first.

101
00:05:00,933 --> 00:05:03,502
Why don't we just go see
what Twilight's up to?

102
00:05:03,602 --> 00:05:04,804
I hear Princess Celestia's

103
00:05:04,904 --> 00:05:06,405
got her working
on some new spells.

104
00:05:06,505 --> 00:05:09,609
New spells, huh?
Okay.

105
00:05:10,409 --> 00:05:11,643
Wait. If I'm not here

106
00:05:11,743 --> 00:05:13,445
when Rainbow Dash's letter
arrives,

107
00:05:13,545 --> 00:05:15,514
I won't be able to read it
right away.

108
00:05:15,614 --> 00:05:17,750
If I don't read it right away,
I can't write back right away.

109
00:05:17,850 --> 00:05:20,052
And if I don't, she might think
I didn't get her letter.

110
00:05:20,152 --> 00:05:21,653
Then she might worry
it got lost.

111
00:05:21,754 --> 00:05:23,823
And if she's worrying,
she'll be distracted.

112
00:05:23,923 --> 00:05:25,558
If she's distracted, she
won't do well at the academy,

113
00:05:25,658 --> 00:05:27,627
then she'll get kicked out.

114
00:05:27,727 --> 00:05:30,262
If she gets kicked out, they'll
never let her be a Wonderbolt.

115
00:05:30,362 --> 00:05:31,730
If she doesn't get
to be a Wonderbolt,

116
00:05:31,831 --> 00:05:33,966
all her dreams
will be crushed!

117
00:05:34,067 --> 00:05:38,771
And it will be
all my fault.

118
00:05:38,871 --> 00:05:42,074
So in other words,
you're sticking by the mailbox.

119
00:05:42,174 --> 00:05:44,444
Yup.
Suit yourself.

120
00:05:49,581 --> 00:05:51,684
SPITFIRE:
The Wonderbolts are the fastest,

121
00:05:51,784 --> 00:05:54,086
best precision flyers
in the world.

122
00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:55,955
But spinouts
can still happen.

123
00:05:56,055 --> 00:05:57,456
And when they do,

124
00:05:57,557 --> 00:06:00,159
a Wonderbolt must be able
to recover quickly.

125
00:06:00,259 --> 00:06:02,962
This is the Dizzitron.

126
00:06:03,062 --> 00:06:06,665
It's gonna to make you very,
I repeat, very dizzy.

127
00:06:06,766 --> 00:06:08,567
Your task
is to try to recover

128
00:06:08,668 --> 00:06:11,670
and fly straight again,
as soon as possible.

129
00:06:11,770 --> 00:06:14,406
Once you have recovered you must
come in for a smooth landing.

130
00:06:14,506 --> 00:06:16,575
Now who's first?

131
00:06:16,675 --> 00:06:17,977
You.

132
00:06:18,077 --> 00:06:20,680
You're up.
Me?

133
00:06:24,016 --> 00:06:25,217
( gulps )

134
00:06:25,317 --> 00:06:27,387
Now!

135
00:06:29,689 --> 00:06:30,890
Ready?

136
00:06:31,991 --> 00:06:33,825
Yes, ma'am.

137
00:06:33,925 --> 00:06:35,895
Go!

138
00:06:35,995 --> 00:06:37,830
( Dizzitron whirring )

139
00:06:45,337 --> 00:06:46,939
Release.

140
00:06:54,146 --> 00:06:55,814
( groaning )

141
00:06:55,914 --> 00:06:58,017
( sighs )

142
00:07:00,652 --> 00:07:03,122
Ah, 15 seconds. Decent.

143
00:07:03,222 --> 00:07:05,658
But I wouldn't go writing home
about it. Who's next?

144
00:07:05,758 --> 00:07:09,028
All right, Rainbow Dash,
let's see what you got.

145
00:07:09,128 --> 00:07:10,663
Yes, ma'am.

146
00:07:13,165 --> 00:07:14,267
Okay, go.

147
00:07:14,367 --> 00:07:15,768
( Dizzitron whirring )

148
00:07:19,338 --> 00:07:20,740
Release.

149
00:07:27,146 --> 00:07:28,480
Six seconds.

150
00:07:28,580 --> 00:07:30,082
That's an academy record.

151
00:07:30,182 --> 00:07:32,752
You make it look so easy.

152
00:07:32,852 --> 00:07:34,853
I make everything look easy.

153
00:07:34,954 --> 00:07:37,457
SPITFIRE:
Okay, Lightning Dust,
you're up.

154
00:07:37,557 --> 00:07:41,093
Ma'am, can you put
the Dizzitron at maximum speed?

155
00:07:41,193 --> 00:07:43,095
I wanna push my limits.

156
00:07:43,195 --> 00:07:45,297
You sure about that?

157
00:07:45,397 --> 00:07:46,665
Yes, ma'am.

158
00:07:46,765 --> 00:07:50,603
Okay. You asked for it.

159
00:07:50,703 --> 00:07:52,905
( Dizzitron whirring )

160
00:08:02,982 --> 00:08:04,183
Release.

161
00:08:10,889 --> 00:08:14,527
Six-point-five seconds.
Not bad.

162
00:08:15,394 --> 00:08:16,495
Oh, yeah.
Ha.

163
00:08:16,595 --> 00:08:18,030
SPITFIRE:
Next!

164
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,402
( screeching )

165
00:08:23,502 --> 00:08:26,605
No pony even came close
to six seconds.

166
00:08:26,705 --> 00:08:29,308
They should make us
Wonderbolts right now.

167
00:08:29,408 --> 00:08:30,509
Yeah, they should.

168
00:08:30,609 --> 00:08:32,111
( chuckles )
Listen up.

169
00:08:32,211 --> 00:08:34,046
You'll be working in pairs.

170
00:08:34,146 --> 00:08:35,814
Tomorrow morning,
I'll post the teams,

171
00:08:35,914 --> 00:08:37,549
including who will be
lead pony

172
00:08:37,649 --> 00:08:39,117
and who will be wingpony.

173
00:08:39,218 --> 00:08:40,552
Good luck.

174
00:08:40,652 --> 00:08:42,321
Like we're gonna need it.

175
00:08:42,421 --> 00:08:44,824
Yeah.

176
00:08:45,658 --> 00:08:47,059
( upbeat theme playing )

177
00:08:48,227 --> 00:08:52,932
So which one of you lucky gals
gets to be my wingpony?

178
00:08:53,032 --> 00:08:54,233
What?

179
00:08:54,333 --> 00:08:56,936
Uh, you might wanna check
the wall.

180
00:09:01,473 --> 00:09:03,843
A wingpony?

181
00:09:05,778 --> 00:09:09,849
They made us a team.
Isn't that awesome?

182
00:09:11,483 --> 00:09:13,252
( ominous theme playing )

183
00:09:15,454 --> 00:09:17,189
( upbeat theme playing )

184
00:09:19,358 --> 00:09:20,759
Permission to enter, ma'am.

185
00:09:20,859 --> 00:09:22,361
What is it, Rainbow Dash?

186
00:09:22,461 --> 00:09:25,064
I had the best time
on the Dizzitron,

187
00:09:25,164 --> 00:09:26,765
only six seconds.

188
00:09:26,865 --> 00:09:27,800
And?

189
00:09:27,900 --> 00:09:30,269
And you made me a wingpony.

190
00:09:34,573 --> 00:09:36,375
Because I believe you
and Lightning Dust

191
00:09:36,475 --> 00:09:37,809
will be an unstoppable team.

192
00:09:37,910 --> 00:09:39,912
Do you not think
you'll be an unstoppable team?

193
00:09:40,012 --> 00:09:42,014
Yes, ma'am.
I mean, no, ma'am.

194
00:09:42,114 --> 00:09:46,285
I mean, we'll be
an unstoppable team, ma'am.

195
00:09:46,385 --> 00:09:47,787
Then what's the problem?

196
00:09:48,921 --> 00:09:51,290
I think I should be lead pony,
ma'am.

197
00:09:51,390 --> 00:09:54,593
And I think Lightning Dust
likes to push herself

198
00:09:54,693 --> 00:09:56,295
a little harder than you do.

199
00:09:56,395 --> 00:09:58,130
That's why I made her
lead pony.

200
00:09:58,230 --> 00:10:00,299
Got it?

201
00:10:00,399 --> 00:10:01,500
Yes, ma'am.

202
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,002
Good.

203
00:10:07,239 --> 00:10:08,641
( military theme playing )

204
00:10:14,946 --> 00:10:17,049
Today you will all
be participating

205
00:10:17,149 --> 00:10:18,951
in a flag hunt.

206
00:10:19,051 --> 00:10:20,652
We'll divide you
into two teams:

207
00:10:20,752 --> 00:10:23,756
Red and Blue.

208
00:10:23,856 --> 00:10:25,424
Whoever finds the most flags

209
00:10:25,524 --> 00:10:27,659
of the opposing team's color
wins.

210
00:10:27,759 --> 00:10:28,960
( all cheering )

211
00:10:29,060 --> 00:10:31,530
Oh, this is gonna be
so much fun.

212
00:10:31,630 --> 00:10:32,865
If you think
this is gonna be fun,

213
00:10:32,965 --> 00:10:34,367
you are sadly mistaken.

214
00:10:34,467 --> 00:10:37,736
This is for training purposes,
this is not recess.

215
00:10:37,837 --> 00:10:40,539
Lead ponies and wingponies
must fly together.

216
00:10:40,639 --> 00:10:42,141
If any pair splits apart,

217
00:10:42,241 --> 00:10:45,744
they will be
immediately disqualified.

218
00:10:45,844 --> 00:10:47,245
Do you understand?

219
00:10:47,345 --> 00:10:48,547
ALL:
Yes, ma'am.

220
00:10:48,647 --> 00:10:50,049
Then let's go.

221
00:10:50,149 --> 00:10:52,251
( blows whistles )

222
00:10:52,351 --> 00:10:54,387
( suspenseful theme playing )

223
00:10:57,656 --> 00:11:01,060
Ready to rock and roll?
Ready.

224
00:11:12,871 --> 00:11:14,573
You spotted any flags yet?

225
00:11:14,673 --> 00:11:16,174
Not yet.

226
00:11:16,274 --> 00:11:18,009
Oh, there's one.

227
00:11:18,110 --> 00:11:19,879
Good eyes.

228
00:11:19,979 --> 00:11:21,513
RAINBOW DASH:
We should slow down.

229
00:11:21,613 --> 00:11:23,582
It doesn't look like both of us
can make it at this speed.

230
00:11:23,682 --> 00:11:25,217
Ha.

231
00:11:29,621 --> 00:11:31,023
Ow.

232
00:11:32,991 --> 00:11:36,796
Lightning Dust and Rainbow Dash
have found the first flag.

233
00:11:38,798 --> 00:11:40,999
Come on,
let's find some more.

234
00:11:41,099 --> 00:11:44,202
Uh, sure,
just give me a second.

235
00:11:44,302 --> 00:11:45,905
Oh, you're fine.

236
00:11:48,907 --> 00:11:51,343
Yeah, totally.

237
00:11:51,444 --> 00:11:53,645
( groans )

238
00:11:53,745 --> 00:11:55,047
( snoring )

239
00:11:55,147 --> 00:11:56,348
( gasps )

240
00:11:57,549 --> 00:11:58,951
( melancholy theme playing )

241
00:12:01,753 --> 00:12:03,555
She's still at it.

242
00:12:03,655 --> 00:12:05,724
I just wish
we could help her.

243
00:12:05,824 --> 00:12:07,025
Help me? The only thing

244
00:12:07,125 --> 00:12:08,927
that could possibly help me
right now

245
00:12:09,027 --> 00:12:11,330
is a letter from Rainbow Dash.
It's been three days already.

246
00:12:11,430 --> 00:12:14,733
By now, she probably doesn't
even know our names anymore.

247
00:12:14,833 --> 00:12:17,235
She probably can't remember
our faces.

248
00:12:17,335 --> 00:12:19,738
"Pinkie Pie?
I never heard of a Pinkie Pie.

249
00:12:19,838 --> 00:12:21,874
Who is Pinkie Pie?"

250
00:12:21,974 --> 00:12:23,576
Well, if you're so worried,

251
00:12:23,676 --> 00:12:26,044
then why don't you
send her a letter first?

252
00:12:26,144 --> 00:12:29,081
Of course.
That's a great idea.

253
00:12:29,181 --> 00:12:30,182
( all sigh )

254
00:12:30,282 --> 00:12:32,384
Wait.
I got an even better idea.

255
00:12:32,484 --> 00:12:35,153
How about we send Rainbow Dash
a care package?

256
00:12:35,253 --> 00:12:37,055
You know, before she forgets
all about us.

257
00:12:37,155 --> 00:12:39,057
Although, come on,
let's face it,

258
00:12:39,157 --> 00:12:40,759
it's probably too late
for that.

259
00:12:40,859 --> 00:12:42,895
But, uh, maybe it'll jog
her memory somehow.

260
00:12:42,995 --> 00:12:46,165
Pinkie Pie, I'm sure Rainbow
Dash still remembers our faces

261
00:12:46,265 --> 00:12:47,399
and who we are.

262
00:12:47,499 --> 00:12:50,603
But I think sending her
a care package is a great idea.

263
00:12:50,703 --> 00:12:52,171
A care package it is.

264
00:12:52,271 --> 00:12:54,206
We'll send it
through the mail.

265
00:12:54,306 --> 00:12:56,675
Wait! Ah!
That won't work at all.

266
00:12:56,775 --> 00:12:58,477
Why not?
Because what if the package

267
00:12:58,577 --> 00:12:59,979
gets lost in the mail?

268
00:13:00,079 --> 00:13:02,080
What if somepony else
gets the package by accident

269
00:13:02,180 --> 00:13:04,082
and then she remembers us
instead of Rainbow Dash

270
00:13:04,182 --> 00:13:05,784
and then she becomes
our new friend.

271
00:13:05,884 --> 00:13:07,520
And then the real Rainbow Dash
won't ever know

272
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:10,188
that she used to have friends
and she forgot them.

273
00:13:10,288 --> 00:13:12,091
Is anypony else
following this?

274
00:13:12,191 --> 00:13:14,393
ALL: Uh-uh.
I've got it!

275
00:13:14,493 --> 00:13:17,696
We'll deliver the care package
to Rainbow Dash in person.

276
00:13:17,796 --> 00:13:18,998
I wouldn't mind
a little trip.

277
00:13:19,098 --> 00:13:20,799
I'll go.
Count me in.

278
00:13:20,899 --> 00:13:22,501
Me too.
Me five.

279
00:13:22,601 --> 00:13:25,003
But don't be upset if she
doesn't recognize you at first.

280
00:13:25,103 --> 00:13:28,507
It may take a while for her
to get her memory back.

281
00:13:28,607 --> 00:13:30,009
( suspenseful theme playing )

282
00:13:33,545 --> 00:13:35,247
( trumpet blowing )

283
00:13:38,216 --> 00:13:42,721
SPITFIRE:
Today we'll be doing our famous
air obstacle course.

284
00:13:42,821 --> 00:13:44,256
The object of this exercise

285
00:13:44,356 --> 00:13:46,024
is to work
on your precision flying

286
00:13:46,124 --> 00:13:48,760
under extreme circumstances.

287
00:13:48,860 --> 00:13:50,428
And don't worry
about winning.

288
00:13:50,528 --> 00:13:52,531
It's not a race.

289
00:13:54,032 --> 00:13:56,335
Now, everypony
get on your marks.

290
00:13:58,337 --> 00:14:00,339
( blows whistle )

291
00:14:02,540 --> 00:14:04,243
( wind gusting )

292
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,862
Ugh!
Can't they go any faster?

293
00:14:23,962 --> 00:14:26,698
It's no good.
I can't get around them.

294
00:14:26,798 --> 00:14:27,899
It doesn't matter.

295
00:14:27,999 --> 00:14:29,768
We can still fly
completely in sync

296
00:14:29,868 --> 00:14:32,571
and blow Spitfire's mind
with our moves.

297
00:14:32,671 --> 00:14:34,073
I guess.

298
00:14:42,681 --> 00:14:44,884
( wind whistling )

299
00:14:46,819 --> 00:14:48,687
What are they,
a couple of snails?

300
00:14:48,787 --> 00:14:49,888
It's just a little weather.

301
00:14:49,988 --> 00:14:52,191
( thunder rumbling )

302
00:14:53,892 --> 00:14:57,629
Now's our chance
to pass these slowpokes.

303
00:14:57,729 --> 00:14:59,932
( ponies grunting )

304
00:15:00,032 --> 00:15:02,401
( upbeat theme playing )

305
00:15:10,042 --> 00:15:12,344
Not bad.
And in record time too.

306
00:15:12,444 --> 00:15:13,946
Definitely made
the right decision

307
00:15:14,046 --> 00:15:16,014
making you two a team.

308
00:15:16,114 --> 00:15:18,316
The others seem to have had
a little trouble

309
00:15:18,416 --> 00:15:20,118
with the precision part
of the exercise.

310
00:15:20,219 --> 00:15:21,820
I better go help
sort them out.

311
00:15:21,921 --> 00:15:23,922
Why don't you two
go hit the mess hall early?

312
00:15:24,022 --> 00:15:25,924
Yes, ma'am.

313
00:15:26,024 --> 00:15:27,425
Thank you, ma'am.

314
00:15:27,525 --> 00:15:29,627
Um, Lightening Dust?

315
00:15:29,727 --> 00:15:33,164
Next time, maybe we don't cut
the other teams off like that.

316
00:15:33,264 --> 00:15:35,133
Hey, you snooze, you lose.

317
00:15:35,234 --> 00:15:37,836
Besides, Wonderbolts
are supposed to be able

318
00:15:37,936 --> 00:15:39,337
to recover from a spinout.

319
00:15:39,438 --> 00:15:40,973
You saw them
on the Dizzitron.

320
00:15:41,073 --> 00:15:42,974
They could use the practice.

321
00:15:43,074 --> 00:15:44,442
I mean, it's not our fault

322
00:15:44,542 --> 00:15:46,344
we're so much better
than those other guys.

323
00:15:46,444 --> 00:15:49,147
Not everypony is destined
to become a Wonderbolt.

324
00:15:49,247 --> 00:15:51,750
Only the best of the best,
right?

325
00:15:51,850 --> 00:15:55,553
Yeah. I guess you're right.

326
00:15:55,653 --> 00:15:57,055
Of course I'm right.

327
00:15:57,155 --> 00:15:58,457
Now let's go fuel up.

328
00:15:58,557 --> 00:16:01,093
Kicking all that tail's
made me hungry.

329
00:16:01,193 --> 00:16:02,594
( slow theme playing )

330
00:16:06,999 --> 00:16:08,166
( blows whistle )

331
00:16:08,266 --> 00:16:11,070
( dramatic theme playing )

332
00:16:22,981 --> 00:16:25,484
( air whooshing )

333
00:16:26,685 --> 00:16:27,986
Yeah!

334
00:16:28,086 --> 00:16:29,989
( upbeat theme playing )

335
00:16:35,727 --> 00:16:37,195
I have an idea

336
00:16:37,295 --> 00:16:41,433
about how we can literally
blow away our competition.

337
00:16:43,101 --> 00:16:45,504
But we're already way ahead.

338
00:16:45,604 --> 00:16:47,105
Are you in or not?

339
00:16:47,205 --> 00:16:48,840
SPITFIRE:
Lightning Dust likes
to push herself

340
00:16:48,940 --> 00:16:50,241
a little harder than you do.

341
00:16:50,341 --> 00:16:53,845
That's why I made her
lead pony.

342
00:16:53,945 --> 00:16:55,547
I'm in.

343
00:16:55,647 --> 00:16:58,017
Then follow my lead.

344
00:17:07,325 --> 00:17:08,927
I can't control it.

345
00:17:09,027 --> 00:17:10,429
( suspenseful theme playing )

346
00:17:21,940 --> 00:17:23,575
It's a twister.

347
00:17:23,675 --> 00:17:24,977
( ominous theme playing )

348
00:17:25,077 --> 00:17:27,446
Hold on!

349
00:17:32,751 --> 00:17:35,453
( all screaming )

350
00:17:35,553 --> 00:17:37,556
No.

351
00:17:43,061 --> 00:17:44,663
( all screaming )

352
00:17:55,607 --> 00:17:57,576
( screaming )

353
00:17:57,676 --> 00:17:59,711
( gasping and sighing )

354
00:18:06,985 --> 00:18:08,720
Are you guys okay?

355
00:18:08,820 --> 00:18:10,522
ALL:
Uh-huh.

356
00:18:10,622 --> 00:18:12,391
Pinkie Pie.

357
00:18:15,627 --> 00:18:17,896
You remember me.

358
00:18:17,996 --> 00:18:20,131
Well, yeah,
of course I remember you.

359
00:18:20,231 --> 00:18:22,300
But what are you all
doing here?

360
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,302
We wanted to bring you
a care package.

361
00:18:24,402 --> 00:18:25,937
Didn't realize
you'd be in the middle

362
00:18:26,037 --> 00:18:28,006
of some crazy tornado drill.

363
00:18:28,106 --> 00:18:30,609
That was awesome.

364
00:18:30,709 --> 00:18:34,312
Awesome? My friends could've
been smashed to pieces.

365
00:18:34,413 --> 00:18:37,516
Yeah.
But they weren't, right?

366
00:18:37,616 --> 00:18:39,351
Can't say the same
for the clouds.

367
00:18:39,451 --> 00:18:41,854
We totally wiped them out
with that tornado.

368
00:18:41,954 --> 00:18:44,155
The other cadets will have
to be up there for days

369
00:18:44,255 --> 00:18:45,757
to bust as many as we did.

370
00:18:48,026 --> 00:18:50,028
A hoof bump? Seriously?

371
00:18:50,128 --> 00:18:51,429
You made me clip my wing.

372
00:18:51,529 --> 00:18:53,765
You sent half of our class
into serious tailspins

373
00:18:53,865 --> 00:18:54,966
on the obstacle course.

374
00:18:55,066 --> 00:18:56,535
You unleashed a tornado

375
00:18:56,635 --> 00:18:58,836
that nearly demolished
my friends.

376
00:18:58,937 --> 00:19:00,271
Yeah. And?

377
00:19:00,372 --> 00:19:03,742
And I get that you wanna
be the best. So do I.

378
00:19:03,842 --> 00:19:06,444
But you're going about it
in the wrong way.

379
00:19:06,544 --> 00:19:09,047
The Wonderbolts don't seem
to think so.

380
00:19:09,147 --> 00:19:12,050
After all,
Spitfire did make me the leader

381
00:19:12,150 --> 00:19:13,685
and you the wingpony.

382
00:19:14,652 --> 00:19:15,187
( sighs )

383
00:19:15,287 --> 00:19:18,657
You're right, she did.

384
00:19:20,291 --> 00:19:21,559
This better be important.

385
00:19:21,660 --> 00:19:22,994
You're supposed to be
up there

386
00:19:23,094 --> 00:19:24,362
busting clouds
with your partner.

387
00:19:24,463 --> 00:19:25,897
We're done with that,
ma'am.

388
00:19:25,997 --> 00:19:28,200
Already?
That's an academy record.

389
00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:29,901
Explain your methods.

390
00:19:30,001 --> 00:19:31,269
That's why I'm here,
ma'am.

391
00:19:31,369 --> 00:19:33,504
Lightning Dust decided
to use a tornado.

392
00:19:33,604 --> 00:19:35,874
A bit excessive
for cloudbusting.

393
00:19:35,974 --> 00:19:37,209
But judging from your time,

394
00:19:37,309 --> 00:19:39,077
it was obviously
an effective tactic.

395
00:19:39,177 --> 00:19:41,079
Yeah,
well, that effective tactic

396
00:19:41,179 --> 00:19:42,614
nearly took out my friends.

397
00:19:42,714 --> 00:19:45,584
No disrespect, ma'am,
but there's a big difference

398
00:19:45,684 --> 00:19:47,786
between pushing yourself
as hard as you can

399
00:19:47,886 --> 00:19:49,688
and just being reckless.

400
00:19:49,788 --> 00:19:50,923
And if being reckless

401
00:19:51,023 --> 00:19:52,423
is what gets rewarded
around here,

402
00:19:52,524 --> 00:19:54,525
if that's what it means
to be a Wonderbolt,

403
00:19:54,625 --> 00:19:56,995
then I don't want any part
of it.

404
00:19:57,095 --> 00:19:58,830
What are you saying, newbie?

405
00:20:00,899 --> 00:20:02,301
I quit.

406
00:20:11,109 --> 00:20:12,610
APPLEJACK:
You did what?

407
00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:15,614
But being a Wonderbolt
was your dream.

408
00:20:15,714 --> 00:20:17,215
Not anymore.

409
00:20:17,315 --> 00:20:19,117
I'm sorry, Rainbow Dash.

410
00:20:19,217 --> 00:20:21,920
I know how much
this meant to you.

411
00:20:23,821 --> 00:20:25,624
Rainbow Dash.

412
00:20:25,724 --> 00:20:27,459
How dare you
storm out of my office

413
00:20:27,559 --> 00:20:29,227
without giving me
a chance to respond.

414
00:20:29,327 --> 00:20:30,662
The Wonderbolts are looking

415
00:20:30,762 --> 00:20:32,564
for the best fliers
in Equestria.

416
00:20:32,664 --> 00:20:34,432
But you were right,
being the best

417
00:20:34,532 --> 00:20:36,468
should never come at the expense
of our fellow ponies.

418
00:20:36,568 --> 00:20:38,937
It's not just
about pushing ourselves,

419
00:20:39,037 --> 00:20:41,940
it's about pushing ourselves
in the right direction.

420
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,274
You've shown
that you're capable

421
00:20:43,374 --> 00:20:44,977
of doing just that.

422
00:20:58,590 --> 00:21:01,693
You're no wingpony,
Rainbow Dash.

423
00:21:01,793 --> 00:21:03,662
You're a leader.

424
00:21:03,762 --> 00:21:06,298
Oh, my, gosh. Oh, my, gosh.
Oh, my, gosh. Oh, my, gosh.

425
00:21:09,768 --> 00:21:12,704
Now get up there
and give me 20.

426
00:21:12,804 --> 00:21:14,405
Yes, ma'am.

427
00:21:14,505 --> 00:21:17,009
( majestic theme playing )

428
00:21:26,885 --> 00:21:30,789
Wait. You didn't even get
to open your care package!
