You two charlatans sold my
Granny a bottle of tonic

235
00:11:06,131 --> 00:11:08,234
and now she's off acting
like a filly again.

236
00:11:09,367 --> 00:11:11,270
What's so bad about that?

237
00:11:11,303 --> 00:11:13,439
If she keeps gallivanting
around like a yearling,

238
00:11:13,472 --> 00:11:16,241
she's apt to drop from
exhaustion or worse.

239
00:11:16,274 --> 00:11:19,378
What's more, I know for a
fact that your friend here

240
00:11:19,411 --> 00:11:21,380
is dressing up as a
different pony every night

241
00:11:21,413 --> 00:11:23,849
so he can pretend to be cured.

242
00:11:23,882 --> 00:11:26,185
Well, that's quite
an accusation.

243
00:11:26,218 --> 00:11:27,720
But let's say
that it's true.

244
00:11:28,353 --> 00:11:29,221
Hypothetically.

245
00:11:29,254 --> 00:11:30,389
Theoretically.

246
00:11:30,422 --> 00:11:33,125
As I understand, your Granny
was a famous aqua-pony...

247
00:11:33,158 --> 00:11:35,928
The star of the show,
once upon a time...

248
00:11:35,961 --> 00:11:39,198
But hasn't set so much as
a hoof in the water since.

249
00:11:39,231 --> 00:11:40,332
Until today.

250
00:11:40,365 --> 00:11:41,566
That's right.

251
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,103
Well, then even if our tonic
were nothing more than a mixture

252
00:11:44,136 --> 00:11:45,370
of apple juice
and beet leaves...

253
00:11:45,403 --> 00:11:46,405
Hypothetically.

254
00:11:46,438 --> 00:11:47,239
Theoretically.

255
00:11:50,842 --> 00:11:52,778
The fact is that
Granny is happier now

256
00:11:52,811 --> 00:11:54,246
than before she tried it.

257
00:11:54,279 --> 00:11:55,914
I guess.

258
00:11:55,947 --> 00:11:57,516
So, the question is...

259
00:11:57,549 --> 00:11:59,418
Do you really want
to be the pony

260
00:11:59,451 --> 00:12:01,253
who takes all that
happiness away?

261
00:12:04,289 --> 00:12:05,758

Did you find out
what's in the tonic?

265
00:12:14,266 --> 00:12:17,536
Honestly, Apple Bloom,
as long as it works,

266
00:12:17,569 --> 00:12:19,939
I don't suppose
it really matters.

267
00:12:21,873 --> 00:12:23,809
Well, if it doesn't
matter to you,

268
00:12:23,842 --> 00:12:25,878
then it doesn't matter
to me either, sis.

269
00:12:29,181 --> 00:12:30,816

Being back in the
water is one thing,

290
00:13:23,635 --> 00:13:26,405
but a competition is a
pony of a different color.

291
00:13:27,505 --> 00:13:29,175
Oh. OK.

292
00:13:33,278 --> 00:13:34,446

293

A swim meet sounds pretty safe.

294
00:13:36,514 --> 00:13:39,384
And after all, if that tonic
lets you swim in a river

295
00:13:39,417 --> 00:13:43,121
and a swimming hole, a pool
should be no problem at all.

This is more of
a uniform.

351
00:17:08,093 --> 00:17:10,195
If you say so.

352
00:17:10,228 --> 00:17:12,597
I used to wonder if I was
doing the right thing,

353
00:17:12,630 --> 00:17:14,299
pretending to be cured,

354
00:17:14,332 --> 00:17:16,768
basically lying to
folks about this tonic,

355
00:17:16,801 --> 00:17:19,137
but thanks to you, I realized

356
00:17:19,170 --> 00:17:22,407
that sometimes honesty
isn't the best policy.

357
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,341
Thanks to...

358
00:17:23,374 --> 00:17:24,609
me?

359
00:17:24,642 --> 00:17:27,446
With Film Flam's
Magical Curative Tonic,

360
00:17:27,479 --> 00:17:29,514
my Granny can do anything!

361
00:17:29,547 --> 00:17:31,083
Just ask Applejack.

362
00:17:32,117 --> 00:17:35,520
<i> (clicking cameras)</i>

363
00:17:35,553 --> 00:17:38,190
No! This has gotta stop!

364
00:17:38,223 --> 00:17:40,859
If ponies keep believing that
tonic can do things it can't,

365
00:17:40,892 --> 00:17:42,528
who knows what will happen?

366
00:17:44,395 --> 00:17:46,331
Maybe something
like that?

367
00:17:46,364 --> 00:17:47,299
<i> (gasp)</i>

368
00:17:50,635 --> 00:17:51,537
Granny!

369
00:17:54,339 --> 00:17:56,741
What in blazes does
she think she's doing?

370
00:17:56,774 --> 00:18:00,179
Granny's going to break the
Equestria high diving record.

371
00:18:02,914 --> 00:18:04,283
Land sakes!

372
00:18:15,460 --> 00:18:16,628
<i> (panting)</i>

373
00:18:16,661 --> 00:18:18,396
<i> (spring board)</i>

374
00:18:18,429 --> 00:18:19,331
<i> (gasp)</i>

375
00:18:28,206 --> 00:18:31,443
Now, what in tarnation
did you do that for?

376
00:18:32,844 --> 00:18:34,713
That was the most
fool-pony thing

377
00:18:34,746 --> 00:18:37,282
I've ever seen anypony
do in all my life.

378
00:18:39,450 --> 00:18:41,520
You can't do a dive like that!

379
00:18:41,553 --> 00:18:43,455
Aw, quit your fussin'.

380
00:18:43,488 --> 00:18:46,892
I had enough tonic to do
a dive ten times as high.

381
00:18:46,925 --> 00:18:48,760
Twenty times by
my count.

382
00:18:48,793 --> 00:18:50,562
Thirty with a
favorable breeze.

383
00:18:53,665 --> 00:19:02,274
<i> ♪ (celestial) ♪</i>

384
00:19:02,307 --> 00:19:04,176
I hate to disappoint
everypony,

385
00:19:04,209 --> 00:19:06,411
but there's no way Granny
could have made that dive

386
00:19:06,444 --> 00:19:08,947
because this
tonic is a fake.

387
00:19:08,980 --> 00:19:10,549
<i> (group gasp)</i>

388
00:19:10,582 --> 00:19:12,751
But you gave it your
stamp of approval!

389
00:19:12,784 --> 00:19:14,286
Are you saying you lied?

390
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,656
I am.

391
00:19:17,689 --> 00:19:19,391
<i> (gasp)</i>

392
00:19:19,424 --> 00:19:20,692
I didn't mean to.

393
00:19:20,725 --> 00:19:22,827
But everypony seemed
so much happier,

394
00:19:22,860 --> 00:19:24,529
<i> I couldn't bring
 myself to tell you</i>

395
00:19:24,562 --> 00:19:26,498
<i> when I found out the
 tonic wasn't real.</i>

396
00:19:28,633 --> 00:19:29,834
I know it was wrong.

397
00:19:29,868 --> 00:19:33,672
I just hope, with time, I can
win back everypony's trust.

398
00:19:35,573 --> 00:19:39,344
But if the tonic is a fake then
how come Granny can swim again

399
00:19:39,377 --> 00:19:42,414
and what about all that
aqua-batic stuff we just did?

400
00:19:42,447 --> 00:19:45,483
I reckon sometimes you can
forget what you're capable of

401
00:19:45,516 --> 00:19:47,686
and it just takes a little
extra confidence to remember

402
00:19:47,719 --> 00:19:49,788
that it was inside
of you all along.

403
00:19:51,289 --> 00:19:53,692
But telling ponies your tonic
can do things it can't

404
00:19:53,725 --> 00:19:55,393
is just wrong!

405
00:19:55,426 --> 00:19:57,729
But you just said it
boosts confidence!

406
00:19:57,762 --> 00:19:59,431
And that's not all it
does, folks--

407
00:19:59,464 --> 00:20:01,666
<i> Yes it is!</i>

408
00:20:01,699 --> 00:20:04,436
In fact, it's not
a tonic at all.

409
00:20:04,469 --> 00:20:06,538
I know because I
helped make it.

410
00:20:08,039 --> 00:20:10,942
Watching Applejack save Granny
and then admit to lying,

411
00:20:10,975 --> 00:20:14,346
well, that made me realize
I was making ponies believe

412
00:20:14,379 --> 00:20:16,815
in a thing that
just wasn't so.

413
00:20:16,848 --> 00:20:19,684
Believing in something can
help you do amazing things,

414
00:20:19,717 --> 00:20:22,287
but if that belief
is based on a lie,

415
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,490
<i> eventually it's going to
 lead to real trouble.</i>

416
00:20:25,523 --> 00:20:27,959
Thank you, Applejack.

417
00:20:27,992 --> 00:20:30,495
I got this through
dishonest means.

418
00:20:30,528 --> 00:20:33,932
<i> That was a mistake I
 won't be making again.</i>

419
00:20:33,965 --> 00:20:36,568
I'd like you to have it.

420
00:20:36,601 --> 00:20:40,505
As a reminder of how you helped
me finally see the truth.

421
00:20:40,538 --> 00:20:41,773
I don't know.

422
00:20:41,806 --> 00:20:42,941
Oh, don't worry.

423
00:20:42,974 --> 00:20:45,877
I'll track down the pony I
sold that worthless tonic to

424
00:20:45,910 --> 00:20:48,413
and give them another bit
to replace this one.

425
00:20:48,446 --> 00:20:50,348
Honest.

426
00:20:50,381 --> 00:20:51,883
I'm sorry, Granny.

427
00:20:51,916 --> 00:20:53,952
I hope this doesn't mean
you'll stop swimming.

428
00:20:53,985 --> 00:20:56,588
Why in tarnation
would I do that?

429
00:20:56,621 --> 00:20:58,723
I just can't believe
those two salesponies

430
00:20:58,756 --> 00:21:00,792
had me believing
I could near fly.

431
00:21:02,060 --> 00:21:03,562
Hey, where'd they go?

432
00:21:05,630 --> 00:21:08,500
<i> Being honest sure gets hard
 when it seems like the truth</i>

433
00:21:08,533 --> 00:21:10,635
<i> might hurt somepony
 you care about.</i>

434
00:21:10,668 --> 00:21:14,539
<i> But I think believing a lie
 can end up hurting even more.</i>

435
00:21:14,572 --> 00:21:16,841
<i> Maybe someponies don't
 care about that...</i>

436
00:21:16,874 --> 00:21:19,010
<i> But I sure ain't one of them.</i>

437
00:21:19,043 --> 00:21:20,745
Now, you take it
easy, there, Granny.

438
00:21:20,778 --> 00:21:22,881
Oh, I plan to.

439
00:21:22,914 --> 00:21:24,549
Whee!

440
00:21:24,582 --> 00:21:25,650
