Wow! Is all this for the Cotton Candy Comet Festival?
Of course, darling.
It's going to be an un-missable, once-in-a-lifetime
extra grand extravaganza!
I booked the incomparable DJ Pon-3
as our musical accompaniment.
And I asked Zesty here to prepare
a cosmic-sized party sub.
But it's still missing one thing: you!
I was hoping you could use
that big beautiful noodle of yours
to calculate when the comet will arrive down to the second.
Considering relative speed, mass, and density,
and of course factoring in Ponpernicus's Law
of Celestial Bodies - I predict that it's impossible
to calculate exactly when it will arrive.
Alright but if you had to,
say down to the second... - Hmmm...
I guess 8:23pm and twelve seconds?
I knew your noodle could do it!
RARITY: Come one, come all,
to the pony event of the year:
the Cotton Candy Comet Festival!
Well I've never seen so much sandwich in one place.
Rarity, can we dig in?
Momentarily, darling. The festival begins
once the comet arrives in...
Nine seconds!
Esteemed guests!
Cast your eyes upward at the magnificent splendor
of the Cotton Candy Comet!
Wait for it... wait for it...
Continue to wait for it...
Keep waiting for it... Twilight!
- Where's my comet? - I don't know!
I must not have calculated for orbital interference.
And the speed, divide by density...
The comet won't actually arrive until tomorrow!
Tomorrow?!
Thank you all so much for coming
to this dress rehearsal
of the Cotton Candy Comet Festival.
The real festival will take place tomorrow night!
(DISGRUNTLED NOISES)
Twilight there you are!
I've nearly recreated my festival for this evening.
Zesty was able to prepare another delicious sandwich.
On short notice she wasn't actually able to make it
party-sized.
And I couldn't re-book DJ Pon-3,
but I was able to find backup in the form of--
Sorry! Just tryna remember how to play.
Just keep practicing, Spike. Everything will be fine,
if, we know exactly when the comet will arrive?
Right. So I reworked the math
and the comet should arrive tonight at exactly 7:57
and seven seconds.
Welcome, welcome, welcome
to the Cotton Candy Comet Festival!
Gaze upon the most astounding sight
your pony eyes have pony-seen!
Tomorrow?!
Uhhh...Just kidding!
This was another dress rehearsal!
See you all tomorrow for the real deal!
(DEFEATED SIGHS)
(ANNOYED NOISES)
(BURP)
Twilight! You're supposed to be a genius!
- Where's my comet?! - I don't know!
I'm sorry. I know everypony is counting on me but,
I just can't figure it out!
I'm a failure!
Oh, Twilight.
I've been so focused on planning a festival
to impress my friends
that I forgot to actually be a friend.
Allow me to help you with this rascally space rock.
The comet just doesn't seem to adhere to the laws of physics.
I know how she feels.
Some of us naturally defy expectations.
Are you suggesting that the comet defies the laws of physics
because it's not governed by science but instead by magic,
and therefore adheres to a completely different set of
mathematical principles?!
You took the words right out of my mouth...
♪
Behold! We've cracked the code
of the Cotton Candy Comet!
We know exactly when it'll show up which means we can plan
the perfect festival to celebrate!
Are you really sure this time?
Absolutely, Flutter-bug.
I have faith in Twilight.
And luckily, we still have our entertainment in place.
- We have some work to do. (MANE SIX LAUGHING)

I can't wait to see this comet!
I haven't been this excited for something since
Roger The Singing Dolphin 3: Sing Louder came out!
After all of those almost-cometarrivals,
I thought my enthusiasm would have dwindled, but no!
I too am excited!
And I've been thinking, what if we used this opportunity
to get a new mixer for the shop?
Well, we could stand to replace the old one.
So what did you have in mind?
So glad you asked!
I'm gonna sell some of my nifty homemade crafted merch
at the comet viewing! Hats,
silly straws in the shape of the comet's tail,
actual cotton candy, and T-shirts!
I Saw The Comet and all I got was this t-shirt
and I don't know what's better, the shirt or the comet.
I like it!
Fab dibby dabulous,
and just my size too!
(GASPS)
Get your comet stuff!
Remember that thing you haven't done yet, before it happens,
so you'll never forget it again after it does!
Ooh, you've t-shirts!
Yeah! And they say, I saw the comet, and all I got was--
Hi hi, sorry, sorry gimme a second!
What is it Twilight?
- I'm in the middle of a sale! - That's just it!
I found something else you can sell!
I was telling the other ponies about it and I had to show you!
Crystal glasses that let you see the full kaleidoscope
of the comet's colors! You can order them in bulk on E-Neigh!
These are PERFECT!
Sorry, can I just-- I wanna grab that silly straw.
Oh, I'm sorry. Here ya go!
Oh, I've seen sillier.
I need those glasses.
Twilight, they're all sold out! ALL of them.
- How did this happen? - I don't know!
It said they were in stock.
Never reveal a trade secret in front of a bush.
You never know who's scheming behind it!
Aaaand complete order!
MUAHAHAHA!
(COUGHING) (RETCHING)
Aw shucks Rainbow, I'm sorry about the glasses.
It woulda been fun but, you've got plenty of other
great merch to choose from. - I know...
Get your Comet Swag!
Get your crystal glasses guaranteed to make
the comet look absolutely astounding!
Dishwater's got the glasses! I gotta investigate!
Here, AJ, can I borrow that banana bandana?
How do I look?
Uh...Like you,
but more a-peel-ling?
Hmm... it'll have to do.
Get your crystal glasses guaranteed to make--
Hello there... I'm...
Fancy Banana Moonbeam
and I'd like to buy... some glasses.
Fancy Banana Moonbeam?
I kinda like it.
Okay, that will be 200 bits, please.
TWO HUNDRED! HA!
That's 10 times what they cost online!
No way, pal!
Rainbow Dash?!
Uh....um...
Well, we gotta go!
Good luck with your price gouging!
This is the worst!
Now nopony can afford the special glasses.
We'll still be able to see the comet, just not as bright!
Or colorful. Or sparkly...
- That's not helping! - Hang on a second...
I might have an idea...
meet me at my Appleshack before the comet viewing tomorrow.
For once, you're gonna be glad I never throw anythin' away!
Comet glasses! Get your comet glasses!
Only 200 bits a pop!
Nopony? Nopony?
You sure you don't wanna see all the comet's colors?
Not for that price, thank you very little!
Oh bobbins,
that is the grandest accessory I have ever beheld!
But how did you do it?
Well, I knew those glasses looked familiar!
Turns out, I still had my Great Aunt Goldie's
Great Granny's Cousin, Strudel's,
leftover glasses from the comet's last appearance
squirreled away. So, Rainbow and I figured a way
that the whole town could enjoy em!
(THUD!)
♪
(EXCITED SQUEALS)
And it's so much better, because now all of us can share
the awesomeness together!
Everypony, come look, the comet's coming!

Who needs a new mixer when you're mixing it up
