from Power Ponypalooza.

353
00:17:51,269 --> 00:17:53,672
I don't think
that's it.

354
00:17:53,705 --> 00:17:56,575
I suppose
it's possible

355
00:17:56,608 --> 00:17:58,710
it could have something
to do with...

356
00:17:58,743 --> 00:18:01,746
Gabby not wanting to spend
time with him anymore.

357
00:18:01,779 --> 00:18:05,217
What? I thought the two of them
were hanging out all the time.

358
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:08,186
They were! Honestly, it
took everything I had

359
00:18:08,219 --> 00:18:11,156
to convince him to spend
any time with me at all.

360
00:18:11,189 --> 00:18:13,358
But between crystal
gem crevasses,

361
00:18:13,391 --> 00:18:15,794
Power Pony conventions and
a marathon game of O&O,

362
00:18:15,827 --> 00:18:18,263
I managed to get
some time in.

363
00:18:18,296 --> 00:18:20,232
It sounds like you made
sure he didn't have any time

364
00:18:20,265 --> 00:18:21,666
to spend with Gabby at all.

365
00:18:21,699 --> 00:18:24,236
What? Pfft! I
certainly did not.

366
00:18:25,937 --> 00:18:30,242
Well, I suppose I may have
monopolized him a teeny bit!

367
00:18:30,275 --> 00:18:32,677
[sigh]

368
00:18:32,710 --> 00:18:35,780
I've just grown so used to
having Spikey-wikey around,

369
00:18:35,813 --> 00:18:38,783
I wasn't prepared for how much
I'd miss him when he wasn't.

370
00:18:38,816 --> 00:18:40,252
Friendships change,

371
00:18:40,285 --> 00:18:41,920
but just because Spike
made a new friend

372
00:18:41,953 --> 00:18:44,189
doesn't mean he
stops being yours.

373
00:18:44,222 --> 00:18:47,592
I know, but now I
have to share him!

374
00:18:47,625 --> 00:18:52,330
Which I suppose I'll
have to get used to...

375
00:18:52,363 --> 00:18:54,333
Right after I fix
this mess I've made.

376
00:18:56,935 --> 00:18:58,237
Good talk.

377
00:19:01,539 --> 00:19:02,407
[sigh]

378
00:19:03,875 --> 00:19:04,843
[door opens]

379
00:19:06,544 --> 00:19:09,848
Rarity? Is all this
stuff for Spike again?

380
00:19:09,881 --> 00:19:11,750
Wouldn't it be easier
to just give it to him?

381
00:19:11,783 --> 00:19:13,852
And why are you even here?

382
00:19:13,885 --> 00:19:17,689
I am here to apologize.
Actually, more to confess.

383
00:19:17,722 --> 00:19:19,724
And all of this stuff
isn't for Spike.

384
00:19:19,757 --> 00:19:21,927
It's the evidence
against me!

385
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,862
Evidence? For what?

386
00:19:23,895 --> 00:19:26,431
For my acts of
utter selfishness!

387
00:19:26,464 --> 00:19:27,899
I don't understand.

388
00:19:27,932 --> 00:19:30,702
These are the items
I used to lure Spike

389
00:19:30,735 --> 00:19:33,738
into spending as much
time with me as possible!

390
00:19:33,771 --> 00:19:35,574
They are? You did?

391
00:19:35,607 --> 00:19:36,841
Spike: Rarity?

392
00:19:36,874 --> 00:19:38,376
What are you doing?

393
00:19:38,409 --> 00:19:40,345
Well, obviously I'm
apologizing to Gabby

394
00:19:40,378 --> 00:19:42,314
so the two of you can renew
your friendship, Spike...

395
00:19:42,347 --> 00:19:44,316
Now please, even if
you can't forgive me

396
00:19:44,349 --> 00:19:46,952
you simply must
forgive... SPIKE!

397
00:19:46,985 --> 00:19:50,622
Oh, I actually owe
you an apology too.

398
00:19:50,655 --> 00:19:53,325
You apologize a lot.

399
00:19:53,358 --> 00:19:56,428
I wish I didn't need to,

400
00:19:56,461 --> 00:19:58,430
but the more time you
two spent together,

401
00:19:58,463 --> 00:20:00,932
the more I missed
my time with Spike

402
00:20:00,965 --> 00:20:04,669
and the more I used every means
at my disposal to get it back.

403
00:20:04,702 --> 00:20:06,705
I am truly sorry.

404
00:20:08,973 --> 00:20:11,376
You really missed
spending time with me?

405
00:20:11,409 --> 00:20:13,478
Oh! Of course!

406
00:20:13,511 --> 00:20:16,414
I have to say, after not
hanging out with you,

407
00:20:16,447 --> 00:20:19,584
I understand why.
You're kinda awesome!

408
00:20:19,617 --> 00:20:22,787
And I know what it's like
to miss that now too.

409
00:20:22,820 --> 00:20:25,724
So, do you think maybe we
could start hanging out again?

410
00:20:25,757 --> 00:20:27,559
Absolutely.

411
00:20:27,592 --> 00:20:28,860
I don't suppose you'd
like some company

412
00:20:28,893 --> 00:20:30,462
on your rounds
right now?

413
00:20:30,495 --> 00:20:31,830
I sure would!

414
00:20:31,863 --> 00:20:34,666
Wonderful! I can't tell
you how pleased I am

415
00:20:34,699 --> 00:20:35,701
that the two
of you have...

416
00:20:37,802 --> 00:20:38,870
[laugh]

417
00:20:38,903 --> 00:20:40,272
reconciled.

418
00:20:42,073 --> 00:20:45,277
I suppose Twilight is right.
Friendships do change.

419
00:20:45,310 --> 00:20:46,478
[clatter]

420
00:20:49,380 --> 00:20:51,883
Of course, Spike and I
will always be friends

421
00:20:51,916 --> 00:20:53,619
and I can get used
to sharing him.

422
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,023
Ooh ooh!

423
00:20:58,056 --> 00:21:00,525
Sorry! I just didn't
want to drop another one

424
00:21:00,558 --> 00:21:02,627
and wake the bats!

425
00:21:02,660 --> 00:21:07,932
Darling. Catching the gems
is what the basket is for.

426
00:21:07,965 --> 00:21:10,435
Spike: Wow. You two need
to be a lot quieter.

427
00:21:12,870 --> 00:21:16,374
Spike! How wonderful
to see you!

428
00:21:16,407 --> 00:21:18,743
Yeah. Gabby and I
had a great day,

429
00:21:18,776 --> 00:21:20,712
but I'll always still
want my Rarity time.

430
00:21:25,350 --> 00:21:28,620
Oh! So that's how it works.
