Oh, I have to...
Oh! I can't believe
the winter-to-spring transition is almost here!
Oh, I know. I love it so much,
I gave it its own term – "Spring-sition"!
Ohhh. I like that. I'm going to have to relabel all my binders.
Right after we finish... everything!
We still have so much to do!
Oh, my bustles and bows! Rarity, did we—?
Already hemmed, ruched, and cut, my dear.
Oh. Rarity, no reason to panic, but, um, we seem to be temporarily low!
And when I say "temporarily low", I mean "completely out of"—!
The baby blue sapphires? They arrived this morning.
Oh. Heh. Wonderful.
Oh! What about the design for the—?!
And done!
Wow. You are good.
And you've really outdone yourself this time!
The Morning Sunshine Tulip Frock is gorgeous!
Ooh, thank you. Look, I know you're worried
about something slipping between the cracks.
But with your managerial skills and my fabulous designs,
we have everything covered.
You're right. You're right. There are no cracks.
Would you be a dear and fetch me
some vermilion satin from the back?
And I'll start on the Eternal Elegance
Empire Silhouette evening gown.
My most certain pleasure!
Oh. I love this picture.
When was the last time we had that kind of fun together?
Why, I can't remember! Has it been that long?!
I guess I've been so busy running my shop! Oh, no!
Something, or should I say somepony, is slipping between the cracks!
I miss my Sweetie Belle!
Rarity, we're running low on vermilion satin.
Huh?
I... I can order more!
And this is when we pretended we were storybook princesses.
And here we pretended we were
on a dangerous yet stylish safari.
So many wonderful memories!
Not to put too fine a point on it, but...
Sweetie Belle loves playing dress-up. I miss her so much!
Then why don't you go visit her?
I wish I... could, but... between... running...
three stores and the spring-sition... I couldn't possibly...
But you've already done almost all the work. I can handle the rest.
B-B-But... but...
Rarity, go. I have everything well in hoof.
Mm, point taken. I am going to visit my sister!
Way to immediately turn that around.
We can spend the whole day together!
And we can do all her favorite things!
I'm sure she'd love that.
Oh, Sassy, thank you!
Of course! Now get out of here!
I'm going! I'm going! Hang on, sis! I'm coming!
Excuse us!
Comin' through!
Cutie Mark Crusaders mid-mission here!
That was fun! Let's do it again!
Scoot, we've got a job to do.
Later?
All right, Chipcutter. We've done our part. The rest is up to you.
You really think I have it in me to be a sculptor?
Yup!
But why?
Because you said you weren't good at anything
except getting in trouble for making sculptures out of your lunch, right?
Yeah. I can't help it. When I look at my sandwich,
it's like it's just asking me to... turn it into a dragon.
Well, what is this slab asking you to turn it into?
Hmmm... I see...
Wow! T-That's incredible! It looks just like us!
We knew you had it in you, Chip!
This is way better than sandwich sculpting!
Chip, we're proud of you.
I finally got my cutie mark!
Woo-hoo! All right!
Yes!
Way to go!
Not a bad way to start a day.
Not a bad way at all!
Helpin' ponies is just about my favorite thing to do.
Another satisfied client!
Mm-hmm!
So who's up next?
Pretty sure it's Zipporwhill.
She needs help reconnecting with
her cutie mark – three puppy paw prints.
When is she swinging by?
Well, I think she should be arriving right about...
...now.
Wow. You are good.
Come on in, Zipporwhill.
Okay, so what seems to be the problem, exactly?
It's my puppy, Ripley. We used to be so close.
In fact, I got my cutie mark
the day I found him and took him home.
But now, it's like he wants nothing to do with me.
Don't you worry. You've come to the right place!
The Cutie Mark Crusaders are on the job!
Trust us. Before you know it,
you and your puppy will be back to bein' besties!
You have the CMC guarantee!
No matter what it takes, we promise
you'll have our full attention.
Guess who's here to spend the whole day with her little sister?!
Rarity?
Oh! Heh-heh. So sorry, dear. You're tiny.
I didn't even see you there!
Tend to get carried away with my entrances! Ta-da!
Rarity, what are you doing here?
I am here to spend the day with you!
I'm so excited, I could practically faint!
You don't happen to have a fainting couch in here, do you?
No!
Oh, pfft, of course not. It's a treehouse! That would be très gauche!
Right... Well, I sure am happy to see you,
and spending the day with you does sound like a lot of fun but,
I'm kind of right in the middle of something important.
I have responsibilities and...
Oh.
Go on, Sweetie Belle. We've got this covered.
How often do you get to spend time with your sister?
Yeah! Go have fun.
You sure you two can handle our client here?
Client? Oh, that is so adorable!
Uh, thanks? I think?
Ooh! You have mints to offer your "clients".
How.. professional.
Are you sure you two got this?
We have it handled.
Oh, my! Look at this wall of satisfied customers!
You girls really have come a long way.
Well, all right then. But, lemme know
if you need me or run into any trouble.
Come on, come on! You'll never guess what I have planned!
Ooh! So fun!
What?
It's just I know how much you love these puppet shows.
I did.
Oh, it's just like old times!
You, me, greasy popcorn.
It's like no time has passed at all.
Come on...
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! It's your favorite part!
Banana peels are so very, very slippery!
It's funny because it's true!
What's the matter, darling?
I, um, guess I just prefer black box experimental theater.
What?! Since when?
I dunno. It's no big deal. This is great.
Okay. We're here! Ta-da!
Aren't you excited to be back here again?
Do I know my baby sister,
or do I know my baby sister?
Uh... Yeah... Where is "here" exactly?
Oh, pfft! Stop being so silly!
You know this is your favorite ice cream shop!
Oh. Right. From when I was a little filly.
And I convinced the original owner to come out of retirement
to make you your all-time favorite dessert!
Huh. I remember it being much bigger.
Well, go ahead. I know you're dying to dig in.
Well?
That was, uh... one tasty bite.
Still a little hungry, though.
We can get another sundae!
Chocolate with rainbow sprinkles, perhaps?
I was thinking something more like a salad.
A salad? When did you get so practical?
Oh, um... I guess another scoop would be fine!
One more Filly Clown Surprise, please!
Hey, Ripley!
Look at me! Over here!
I know you must be bored, darling.
This is a very long line for one of Twisty Pop's balloons.
But just be patient.
We'll get you your favorite balloon bouquet,
and it'll all be worth it.
Who's a good puppy? Who's a good puppy?!
You're the good puppy!
Now come on, puppy-wuppy! Get the bally-wally!
Come on, Ripley! Like this!
Good Scootaloo! See?
It's not working.
Maybe if the ball tasted better?
I don't think that that's it, Scoot.
Doesn't look like it's going so well.
I'm just gonna do a quick check with the CMCs.
Well, I guess duty calls, and-and you, you have that now...
What?
Oh nothing, nothing. Go on.
Hey, Sweetie Belle. How's your day with Rarity going?
Well, it's not exactly great...
What do you mean?
I don't know. It's like Rarity doesn't even know me anymore.
I wish we could say our day is going better.
But we can't.
Seems like Zipporwhill's puppy doesn't want anything to do with her.
Hmmm. I see what you mean... You know, it's an awfully big puppy...
Sweetie Belle, hurry! He's making it!
Gotta go...
I know just what to do with this!
And pose!
Love the camera!
Hate the camera.
Love it again!
Sweetie Belle, you did "hate the camera" for all these shots!
Let's do it again.
No!
Come on, Zipporwhill, you can do this!
W-What do you mean, no?
Rarity, this is hard for me to say, but... um...
Sweetie Belle, what is it?
You've been acting weird all day.
You used to love doing these things with me.
That's just it! I used to! That's not who I am anymore!
This isn't who I am! My cutie mark must be for something else,
because my puppy just doesn't love me anymore! Hmph!
But it is you!
You love puppet shows and dressing up
and taking silly photos and tiny little clown-shaped ice creams!
Really?! If you still think I like doing this stuff,
then maybe you don't know me at all!
I can't believe Sweetie Belle talked to me like that.
And after everything I did
to set up a whole day of doing her favorite things!
I mean, accusing me of not knowing her?!
I know her better than anypony!
Um, thank you, Twisty, but the hard truth is,
my sister is being unappreciative right now!
And I'm going to go and give her a piece of my mind!
Hey, Zipporwhill. What are you doing here?
Where are Apple Bloom and Scootaloo?
They're with my puppy.
He seems to like them better than me anyway.
Now, I'm sure that's not true.
It is. He doesn't like doing anything with me anymore.
He didn't even want to play with this. And all puppies love these.
I think that might be your problem right there! Come on!
Find Zipporwhill, Ripley!
Woof, woof! It's Zipporwhill! Woof?
It's hopeless.
Sweetie Belle!
Zipporwhill! We're sorry we haven't figured this out yet.
Don't worry, girls. I think I cracked this one.
Aha! There she is! Oh, dear. Really should have changed.
No matter! I'm going to give her quite the talking to!
...Right after she's done with her conversation.
Anger is no excuse for poor manners, after all.
Okay, Zipporwhill. What do you see?
My puppy?
That's not what I see. I see a full-grown dog.
He did get bigger, I guess.
He's not just bigger. He's older, too.
You don't still play with the same toys from when you were a foal, do you?
Oh. Ohhh. The squeaker is a little small for him now.
It's just hard for me to believe
he's not the same adorable little guy
I found anymore.
I understand. But doing things like you used
to won't turn him back into a puppy.
So... what do I do?
Treat him like the dog he is,
and find new favorite things to do together.
You think so?
I know so!
Rarity?!
Oh, Sweetie Belle. I heard what you said,
and you are so right.
About the dog?
Yes, but about us, too.
The truth is, I know you're not a little filly anymore.
But it's just... the last time
we did all of those things together,
I... I didn't realize it was gonna be the last last time.
I loved doing those things with you.
It's hard for me to let that go.
Aww, Rarity! I love being with you too! That will never change!
But... maybe we could just try
to do different things together?
What is it, puppy? I mean, Ripley?
I love you too, Ripley!
Thank you, Crusaders.
No problem!
Oh, Ripley!
Sweetie Belle, I'm so very proud of the pony you've grown into.
And I'm proud that no matter what,
I'll always be your little sister.
I, uh, have a little bit of time
before I have to head back to Canterlot.
Could we spend it together?
What would a grown pony like you want to do?
Well, I do have one idea...
Heh, I didn't realize your idea would be such a delicious one!
I don't know how I'm going to finish this.
Oh! I'll help you!
