belong here either.
184
00:07:57,242 --> 00:07:58,811
WHEEEE!
185
00:08:04,082 --> 00:08:06,552
[Twilight] So apparently,
finding Rockhoof a new job
186
00:08:06,585 --> 00:08:08,554
is a lot harder than we thought.
187
00:08:08,587 --> 00:08:10,623
Has anypony had any luck?
188
00:08:10,656 --> 00:08:12,892
Uh uh. Nope.
189
00:08:15,894 --> 00:08:18,564
I thought you were gonna try
him out at the post office.
190
00:08:18,597 --> 00:08:19,265
We did.
191
00:08:21,133 --> 00:08:25,037
Do you know where I can
find Cranky Doodle Donkey?
192
00:08:25,070 --> 00:08:27,239
I need to deliver his medicine!
193
00:08:27,272 --> 00:08:30,877
He has a rash in a very
embarrassing place!
194
00:08:38,250 --> 00:08:41,153
[shudder] I did not
need to hear that.
195
00:08:41,186 --> 00:08:44,290
Yep! Rockhoof's time
as a spa masseuse
196
00:08:44,323 --> 00:08:45,992
didn't work out either.
197
00:08:47,359 --> 00:08:51,163
Now just let me know if
this is too much pressure.
198
00:08:51,196 --> 00:08:54,000
[shriek of pain]
199
00:08:56,034 --> 00:08:59,204
Well, at least Rockhoof's
really strong.
200
00:08:59,237 --> 00:09:02,908
Maybe we could find him a
job carrying heavy stuff?
201
00:09:02,941 --> 00:09:04,577
I tried that already.
202
00:09:04,610 --> 00:09:07,547
Zecora needed somepony to
help her get supplies, but...
203
00:09:09,815 --> 00:09:11,183
[knocking]
204
00:09:11,216 --> 00:09:13,919
I know you said you only
needed a few leaves,
205
00:09:13,952 --> 00:09:15,821
but I figured why not
bring you the whole thing?
206
00:09:15,854 --> 00:09:18,824
[buzzing]
207
00:09:21,727 --> 00:09:23,329
Oh, how horrid.
208
00:09:23,362 --> 00:09:25,731
None of the other Pillars
seem to be having trouble
209
00:09:25,764 --> 00:09:27,900
fitting in to the modern world.
210
00:09:27,933 --> 00:09:30,769
Then maybe they can show
Rockhoof how they did it.
211
00:09:30,802 --> 00:09:33,105
Get him used to
livin' in this time.
212
00:09:33,138 --> 00:09:34,073
Great idea!
213
00:09:34,106 --> 00:09:36,675
Rockhoof's old friends
would be happy to help.
214
00:09:36,708 --> 00:09:38,210
And I bet he'd
love to visit them.
215
00:09:42,381 --> 00:09:44,149
Hmph.
216
00:09:44,182 --> 00:09:47,186
Even Canterlot looks
different from the old days.
217
00:09:47,219 --> 00:09:50,889
Aw, I'm sure once you see
your ol' pal Flash Magnus,
218
00:09:50,922 --> 00:09:52,891
you'll feel right at home.
219
00:09:52,924 --> 00:09:56,795
Trot, 2, 3, 4!
Trot, 2, 3, 4!
220
00:09:56,828 --> 00:09:58,965
Keep it lively, rookies!
221
00:10:00,732 --> 00:10:02,234
Visitors on site!
222
00:10:02,267 --> 00:10:03,803
Company, halt!
223
00:10:06,872 --> 00:10:09,708
Rockhoof, you old
ditch-digger you!
224
00:10:09,741 --> 00:10:12,911
Flash Magnus, as I
live and breathe!
225
00:10:12,944 --> 00:10:14,780
Is this your squadron?
226
00:10:14,813 --> 00:10:17,816
After we got out of limbo, I
went looking for work for a pony
227
00:10:17,849 --> 00:10:19,918
with experience in
the Royal Legion.
228
00:10:19,951 --> 00:10:22,421
Once a soldier,
always a soldier.
229
00:10:22,454 --> 00:10:24,923
Princess Celestia was happy to
find a new drill sergeant
230
00:10:24,956 --> 00:10:26,792
for her Guard!
231
00:10:26,825 --> 00:10:29,128
That's great.
232
00:10:29,161 --> 00:10:33,198
She really put you in a
job that big... so soon?
233
00:10:33,231 --> 00:10:34,933
Oh, this is nothing.
234
00:10:34,966 --> 00:10:36,869
You should see what
Mistmane is up to.
235
00:10:40,772 --> 00:10:43,108
They made you the Royal
Landscape Artist
236
00:10:43,141 --> 00:10:45,044
for the Crystal Empire?
237
00:10:45,077 --> 00:10:46,011
Wow.
238
00:10:46,044 --> 00:10:48,147
Your work is
beautiful.
239
00:10:48,180 --> 00:10:49,948
Thank you.
240
00:10:49,981 --> 00:10:52,351
I've never worked
with crystal before,
241
00:10:52,384 --> 00:10:57,056
but in my heart, I know
I'm where I belong.
242
00:10:57,089 --> 00:10:59,858
You always could find
the beauty in things.
243
00:10:59,891 --> 00:11:04,096
But there's not much demand for
shovel ponies like me nowadays.
244
00:11:04,830 --> 00:11:06,732
Don't give up hope!
245
00:11:06,765 --> 00:11:08,767
See Somnambula.
246
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,203
She'll help you
find your purpose.
247
00:11:14,139 --> 00:11:16,341
Somnambula's a
motivational speaker.
248
00:11:16,374 --> 00:11:19,078
Bet they didn't even have
those back in your time.
249
00:11:19,111 --> 00:11:20,946
Because we didn't
need them.
250
00:11:20,979 --> 00:11:23,115
Ponies knew what to
do with their lives.
251
00:11:23,148 --> 00:11:29,855
Focus on my voice, and feel
yourself unlock your potential.
252
00:11:29,888 --> 00:11:32,958
[deep inhale and exhale]
253
00:11:38,029 --> 00:11:43,769
Imagine everything that
troubles you as one big cloud.
254
00:11:43,802 --> 00:11:47,339
Now let it float away.
255
00:11:47,372 --> 00:11:49,141
You are relaxed.
256
00:11:49,174 --> 00:11:53,345
Free to do anything you wish.
257
00:11:53,378 --> 00:11:58,951
[loud snoring]
258
00:11:58,984 --> 00:12:00,386
Guess he wished he
could take a nap?
259
00:12:03,121 --> 00:12:04,423
[Rockhoof] Mage Meadowbrook!
260
00:12:04,456 --> 00:12:07,860
Your home looks just the
same as the old days.
261
00:12:07,893 --> 00:12:09,828
Wish I could say
the same for mine.
262
00:12:09,861 --> 00:12:13,265
Well, I've had to
expand my clinic a bit.
263
00:12:13,298 --> 00:12:17,102
Many creatures need healing
in this modern world.
264
00:12:17,135 --> 00:12:20,506
Oh! Looks like you
could use some too.
265
00:12:20,539 --> 00:12:22,975
What's got you
heartsick, Rockhoof?
266
00:12:25,510 --> 00:12:29,081
Thing is, I can't do
my old job like Flash.
267
00:12:29,114 --> 00:12:31,083
Or adapt like Mistmane.
268
00:12:31,116 --> 00:12:33,819
Or succeed at something
new like Somnambula.
269
00:12:33,852 --> 00:12:36,355
Or go home, like you.
270
00:12:36,388 --> 00:12:37,356
Give it time.
271
00:12:37,389 --> 00:12:40,993
Even Starswirl's still
learning about friendship.
272
00:12:41,026 --> 00:12:42,261
[Applejack] Yeah!
273
00:12:42,294 --> 00:12:45,230
And I bet Stygian took
plenty of time to fit in.
274
00:12:45,263 --> 00:12:47,199
[Twilight] Hey,
look what I found!
275
00:12:47,232 --> 00:12:49,802
"Me and My Shadow,"
the third hit novel
276
00:12:49,835 --> 00:12:51,870
by former villain Stygian.
277
00:12:51,903 --> 00:12:54,339
I'm impressed! He's
really thriving!
278
00:12:54,372 --> 00:12:56,575
[moan]
279
00:12:56,608 --> 00:12:58,844
Rockhoof? Where are
you going?
280
00:12:58,877 --> 00:12:59,912
I'm not sure.
281
00:12:59,945 --> 00:13:03,115
Maybe I just don't belong
in this modern world.
282
00:13:05,517 --> 00:13:08,353
Now this here is a
right mash of apples.
283
00:13:08,386 --> 00:13:10,823
'Stead of solving
Rockhoof's problem,
284
00:13:10,856 --> 00:13:12,991
we made him feel even worse.
285
00:13:13,024 --> 00:13:15,227
I'll tell you the
real problem here!
286
00:13:15,260 --> 00:13:19,264
We haven't given Rockhoof the
chance to be who he really is.
287
00:13:19,297 --> 00:13:22,301
A pony with a metal shovel
and a heart of gold?
288
00:13:22,334 --> 00:13:24,336
A hero!
289
00:13:24,369 --> 00:13:28,874
What we need to do is find him
a job that's as epic as he is!
290
00:13:28,907 --> 00:13:33,045
Hm. I might know
just the thing...
291
00:13:34,579 --> 00:13:37,449
I'm honored to serve
in the Hippogriff Navy,
292
00:13:37,482 --> 00:13:39,017
General Seaspray.
293
00:13:39,050 --> 00:13:41,287
I promise I'll prove my worth.
294
00:13:42,153 --> 00:13:43,589
Think nothing of it.
295
00:13:43,622 --> 00:13:47,192
I know how hard it is
to adapt to a new home.
296
00:13:47,225 --> 00:13:49,995
After our many years
below the waves,
297
00:13:50,028 --> 00:13:53,365
land customs seemed strange.
298
00:13:53,398 --> 00:13:56,401
Like you didn't fit in, no
matter how hard you tried?
299
00:13:56,434 --> 00:13:59,638
As though the world had
moved on without us.
300
00:13:59,671 --> 00:14:01,406
Never fear, Rockhoof.
301
00:14:01,439 --> 00:14:08,113
We shall be as brothers in this
bright future above the waves.
302
00:14:08,146 --> 00:14:11,083
Uh, why do the
Hippogriffs need ships
303
00:14:11,116 --> 00:14:13,085
if they can turn
into seaponies?
304
00:14:13,118 --> 00:14:14,920
Maybe they just like cruises?
305
00:14:14,953 --> 00:14:16,054
General!
306
00:14:16,088 --> 00:14:19,024
The fog's too thick to see
our way out of the harbor!
307
00:14:19,057 --> 00:14:21,593
[rushing water]
308
00:14:21,626 --> 00:14:24,196
Heave to, swabbies!
309
00:14:24,229 --> 00:14:29,401
Halt the ship and hold
her till the fog passes!
310
00:14:29,434 --> 00:14:30,602
Wait, General!
311
00:14:30,635 --> 00:14:33,338
We can navigate the same way
my Coltic ancestors traveled
312
00:14:33,371 --> 00:14:37,643
through the Selkie Mists!
We'll look to the stars!
313
00:14:37,676 --> 00:14:39,378
There in the
northwest sky
314
00:14:39,411 --> 00:14:42,347
is the constellation
for O'Bridle's Pelt!
315
00:14:42,380 --> 00:14:44,950
Steer the ship toward that!
316
00:14:44,983 --> 00:14:46,618
You heard the pony, crew!
317
00:14:46,651 --> 00:14:48,254
Make full sail!
318
00:14:52,424 --> 00:14:55,928
Yeehaw! Rockhoof did it!
319
00:14:55,961 --> 00:14:57,195
[smash]
320
00:14:57,228 --> 00:14:59,364
But... I don't understand!
321
00:14:59,397 --> 00:15:02,234
The stars have always
steered me true!
322
00:15:02,267 --> 00:15:05,304
Oh, no. Stars can move
slowly over time.
323
00:15:05,337 --> 00:15:08,573
They must look different now
than over a thousand years ago.
324
00:15:08,606 --> 00:15:12,244
It was an honor serving
with you, Rockhoof.
325
00:15:12,277 --> 00:15:16,916
But it seems our paths lie
in different directions.
326
00:15:22,420 --> 00:15:24,356
Hey,
mistakes happen.
327
00:15:24,389 --> 00:15:26,992
We'll think of something
else for you to do!
328
00:15:27,025 --> 00:15:29,261
Oh, there's no need, lass.
329
00:15:29,294 --> 00:15:31,496
I already know what
I want to do next.
330
00:15:31,529 --> 00:15:33,131
Really? What?
331
00:15:33,164 --> 00:15:35,267
I heard there's a
statue spell
332
00:15:35,300 --> 00:15:38,103
that sends creatures
into stone sleep.
333
00:15:38,136 --> 00:15:40,105
I want you to cast it.
334
00:15:40,138 --> 00:15:41,740
On me.
335
00:15:41,773 --> 00:15:43,142
[gasp]
336
00:15:47,612 --> 00:15:48,513
[Twilight] No!
337
00:15:48,546 --> 00:15:49,381
[Rockhoof] Yes!
338
00:15:49,414 --> 00:15:50,615
-No!
-Aye!
339
00:15:50,648 --> 00:15:52,417
[groan]
340
00:15:52,450 --> 00:15:53,318
No!
341
00:15:53,351 --> 00:15:54,252
AYE!
342
00:15:54,285 --> 00:15:55,387
Hey guys.
343
00:15:55,420 --> 00:15:57,456
Need me to help you
decide something?
344
00:15:58,556 --> 00:16:01,994
Rockhoof wants me to cast a
spell to turn him into a statue.
345
00:16:02,027 --> 00:16:03,628
The answer is no.
346
00:16:03,661 --> 00:16:07,099
Well, it should be aye, because
I wouldn't even be here
347
00:16:07,132 --> 00:16:08,633
to be turned into a statue
348
00:16:08,666 --> 00:16:11,570
if Twilight hadn't cast a
spell in the first place!
349
00:16:11,603 --> 00:16:12,738
[stomp]
350
00:16:12,771 --> 00:16:16,508
Whoa. I thought you were
arguing over ice cream flavors.
351
00:16:16,541 --> 00:16:18,377
The answer is still no!
352
00:16:18,410 --> 00:16:20,779
Why would you want to
be turned into stone?
353
00:16:20,812 --> 00:16:23,715
Because I'm a relic
of a bygone age.
354
00:16:23,748 --> 00:16:25,350
I belong in a museum.
355
00:16:25,383 --> 00:16:26,351
Safe.
356
00:16:26,384 --> 00:16:27,352
Preserved.
357
00:16:27,385 --> 00:16:29,054
Untouched.
358
00:16:29,087 --> 00:16:30,756
I don't belong in this time.
359
00:16:30,789 --> 00:16:33,091
It's up to you to
make that right.
360
00:16:33,124 --> 00:16:35,060
But there has to
be a better way!
361
00:16:35,093 --> 00:16:37,195
Twilight, please understand.
362
00:16:37,228 --> 00:16:39,765
I want to be remembered
as the hero I was.
363
00:16:39,798 --> 00:16:42,134
Not the disappointment
I've become.
364
00:16:42,167 --> 00:16:43,535
But you're not!
365
00:16:43,568 --> 00:16:45,137
Rockhoof, wait!
366
00:16:46,104 --> 00:16:49,274
Spike, can you teach
my class today?
367
00:16:49,307 --> 00:16:52,077
You're not really going to
turn him to stone, are you?
368
00:16:52,110 --> 00:16:53,812
Only because it's temporary.
369
00:16:53,845 --> 00:16:55,680
As soon as I think
of a new solution,
370
00:16:55,713 --> 00:16:57,382
we'll wake Rockhoof up.
371
00:16:57,415 --> 00:17:01,086
I KNOW he has more to offer the
world as a pony than a statue.
372
00:17:02,620 --> 00:17:05,257
Did you hear Rockhoof caught all
the bees in the Everfree Forest,
373
00:17:05,290 --> 00:17:06,758
and gave 'em to
Zecora as a gift?
374
00:17:06,791 --> 00:17:10,128
Wow! Terramar said Rockhoof
called down the stars
375
00:17:10,161 --> 00:17:12,464
and sunk the whole
Hippogriff navy!
376
00:17:12,497 --> 00:17:15,400
He's definitely weird.
But in a fun way.
377
00:17:15,433 --> 00:17:18,103
You never know what's
gonna happen next with him.
378
00:17:18,136 --> 00:17:20,739
Professor Rockhoof best pony!
379
00:17:20,772 --> 00:17:22,574
Hey, class.
380
00:17:22,607 --> 00:17:25,477
Welcome to the Theory and
Defense of Friendship.
381
00:17:25,510 --> 00:17:26,545
Another sub?
382
00:17:26,578 --> 00:17:29,347
Let me start by telling
you we don't get homework,
383
00:17:29,380 --> 00:17:32,150
and we only do field trips.
384
00:17:32,183 --> 00:17:33,685
Yeah, nice try.
385
00:17:33,718 --> 00:17:36,221
Twilight sent me to tell
you she won't be in today
386
00:17:36,254 --> 00:17:38,690
'cause she has to cast a stone
sleep spell on Rockhoof.
387
00:17:38,723 --> 00:17:40,325
[gasp]
388
00:17:40,358 --> 00:17:42,327
Like Discord? But why?
389
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:44,163
Rockhoof isn't a bad guy.
390
00:17:46,431 --> 00:17:49,134
Your instructions are
to write an essay on
391
00:17:49,167 --> 00:17:50,869
"Heroism: And What It
Means To You."
392
00:17:50,902 --> 00:17:53,138
No!
393
00:17:53,171 --> 00:17:54,172
Oh, don't worry.
394
00:17:54,205 --> 00:17:55,707
It doesn't have to
be a long essay.
395
00:17:57,842 --> 00:18:00,212
Maybe like this?
396
00:18:00,245 --> 00:18:02,547
Or on three legs... Hmm.
397
00:18:02,580 --> 00:18:06,852
What will give the wee birds
fewer places to uh, decorate?
398
00:18:06,885 --> 00:18:08,420
Professor Rockhoof!
399
00:18:08,453 --> 00:18:10,789
Dragon said you want
to turn into stone!
400
00:18:12,357 --> 00:18:14,259
Yona not believe it!
401
00:18:14,292 --> 00:18:17,529
Aye, I'm afraid it's true, lass.
402
00:18:17,562 --> 00:18:21,733
But... Pony need finish
Ursa Major story for class!
403
00:18:21,766 --> 00:18:25,170
It's sweet of you to try
to get me to stay, Yona.
404
00:18:25,203 --> 00:18:28,673
But... I'm afraid old
stories like mine
405
00:18:28,706 --> 00:18:32,144
aren't worth anything
in this day and age.
406
00:18:32,177 --> 00:18:35,147
Fine! If Pony no want
tell Yona story,
407
00:18:35,180 --> 00:18:37,249
then Yona tell Pony story!
408
00:18:39,751 --> 00:18:41,219
From class report!
409
00:18:41,252 --> 00:18:44,289
"When Yona come to Pony
school, Yona not fit in.
410
00:18:44,322 --> 00:18:46,158
Pony ways strange.
411
00:18:46,191 --> 00:18:47,926
But Yona find friends!
412
00:18:47,959 --> 00:18:50,562
Yona meet Professor Rockhoof.
413
00:18:50,595 --> 00:18:53,632
Pony brave and strong as Yak!
414
00:18:53,665 --> 00:18:56,168
Not afraid! Hero!"
415
00:18:56,201 --> 00:18:57,569
When Yona grow up,
416
00:18:57,602 --> 00:19:01,706
Yona want to be just like
Professor Rockhoof."
417
00:19:01,739 --> 00:19:04,676
Well. Since you went
to the trouble
418
00:19:04,709 --> 00:19:07,913
of writing something
that nice, I suppose
419
00:19:07,946 --> 00:19:10,782
the least I could do is tell
you the rest of the story.
420
00:19:13,585 --> 00:19:16,755
Yona tell whole school
Rockhoof is best.
421
00:19:16,788 --> 00:19:18,724
Now all want to hear story.
422
00:19:21,693 --> 00:19:23,595
OK. I have the spell,
423
00:19:23,628 --> 00:19:26,531
but will you please
reconsider. Rockhoof?
424
00:19:26,564 --> 00:19:29,701
The Ursa Major tried to
grab me by the gullet!
425
00:19:29,734 --> 00:19:30,969
But I ducked her claws!
426
00:19:31,002 --> 00:19:32,738
[gasps]
427
00:19:34,872 --> 00:19:36,341
She had me cornered.
428
00:19:36,374 --> 00:19:38,744
So I look at her..
she looks at me.
429
00:19:41,246 --> 00:19:46,284
And I say, "Sorry you won't be
having any dinner tonight, lass!
430
00:19:46,317 --> 00:19:49,221
Guess you'll just have
to grin and bear it!"
431
00:19:49,254 --> 00:19:50,789
[laughter]
432
00:19:50,822 --> 00:19:55,560
And then I tossed her away with
my shovel, high into the sky.
433
00:19:55,593 --> 00:19:59,397
And she's been a constellation
up there ever since.
434
00:19:59,430 --> 00:20:00,966
Or so I'm told.
435
00:20:00,999 --> 00:20:03,668
And that's the end of my story.
436
00:20:03,701 --> 00:20:07,906
One more story!
One more story!
437
00:20:07,939 --> 00:20:10,308
No no. Thank you
for listening.
438
00:20:10,341 --> 00:20:11,910
But it's time to say good-bye.
439
00:20:13,645 --> 00:20:14,880
Wait.
440
00:20:14,913 --> 00:20:17,616
You said there wasn't anything
in this time you were good at.
441
00:20:17,649 --> 00:20:19,785
What about telling stories?
442
00:20:21,486 --> 00:20:23,855
It was just a tall tale...
443
00:20:23,888 --> 00:20:26,324
One that captured the
hearts and imagination
444
00:20:26,357 --> 00:20:28,526
of everycreature here.
445
00:20:28,559 --> 00:20:31,496
Plus pony story super fun!
446
00:20:31,529 --> 00:20:34,666
[cheers]
447
00:20:34,699 --> 00:20:37,702
As the Princess of Friendship,
I'd like to appoint you
448
00:20:37,735 --> 00:20:41,673
as Equestria's official
Keeper of Tales.
449
00:20:41,706 --> 00:20:42,841
Can you do that?
450
00:20:42,874 --> 00:20:44,676
[shrug sound]
451
00:20:44,709 --> 00:20:47,712
[Rockhoof] I uh, that's
very kind of you.
452
00:20:47,745 --> 00:20:50,582
But I still think these old
bones are more suited
453
00:20:50,615 --> 00:20:52,651
to a museum display.
454
00:20:52,684 --> 00:20:55,487
You are a living
record of our history.
455
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,957
Your stories can inspire and
teach generations to come.
456
00:20:58,990 --> 00:21:02,327
If you're a statue,
that's all lost.
457
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,830
But will I ever really
belong in your world?
458
00:21:05,863 --> 00:21:07,499
Rockhoof Yona's friend.
459
00:21:07,532 --> 00:21:09,801
So Rockhoof belongs.
460
00:21:09,834 --> 00:21:14,973
You know, that reminds
me of another story...
461
00:21:15,006 --> 00:21:20,545
Once there was a small Yak that
knew more than a great hero.
462
00:21:20,578 --> 00:21:23,848
Hey, don't forget the
dragons in this one!
463
00:21:23,881 --> 00:21:25,383
Aye, there were dragons.
464
00:21:25,416 --> 00:21:27,052
And ponies.
465
00:21:27,085 --> 00:21:29,387
And plenty of hippogriffs.
466
00:21:29,420 --> 00:21:32,024
Plus a changeling and
a griffon that flew...
