Uh... Rarity?
Starlight and I kinda need your help.
Uh? Oh... I'm affraid I can't just now.
Twilight will be here any moment for her fitting.
Uh... That's why were here.
Spike and I are putting together something special for the coronation.
Huh, darling.
We're all putting together something for the coronation.
Be thankful you're not doing the Gawn.
This is my fourteen version!
This is different.
It's from all of us.
And it's kinda about all of us too.
I combined some ancient spell to make a magical scrapbook,
And now all we need is some memory to go inside.
That way, Twilight can have a collection of memories,
To look at anytimes she wants.
All we need you to do is...
Rarity?
It's Twilight.
Are you sure we need to do another fitting?
I don't think my size isn't change.
Uh... Did we mention we want it to be a surprise?
We want be sure to get some of Twilight old memories.
So just get her talking about old times of you.
I'll do the rest.
We get it Starlight, you good at magic.
I tought maybe you weren't home.
Not home? Darling!
I would never miss a fitting.
Of course not.
And I really appreciate you being so generous with your time
But are all this fitting really necessary?
Darling.
The perfect pick is imperative.
And as for my time,
While I'm far from the most generous pony in Equestria.
Actually...
That's exactly what you are.
What a world, what a world...!
Excuse me, sir. Why are you crying?
Well, I don't know. I was just sitting here, minding my own business...
When this tacky little cloud of purple smoke just whisked past me...
And tore a half of my beloved mustache...
... clean off!
And now I look simply horrid!
Oh, gimme a break!
That's what all the fuss is about?
Why, of course it is!
How can you be so insensitive?
Oh, just look at him.
Such lovely luminescent scales...!
I know.
... and your expertly coiffed mane...!
Oh, I know, I know.
... your fabulous manicure... !
It's so true!
All ruined without your beautiful mustache!
It's true, I'm hideous!
I simply cannot let such a crime against fabulosity go uncorrected!
What did you do that for?!
Rarity, what are you...
My mustache!
How wonderful!
You look smashing!
Oh, Rarity! Your beautiful tail!
Oh. It's fine, my dear.
Short tails are in the season.
Besides, it'll grow back.
Hey, look!
There's the theater where Hinny Of the Hills is playing!
Cool! Woah!
Wow, Rarity.
How'd you manage to get us seats for tomorrow night?
I gave some designs to the costume designer,
So he pulled a few strings.
Cool!
That is what makes Manehattan so splendid and amazing.
You do something nice for somepony,
and then you never know when they'll do something nice for you.
So then you can do something nice for us.
Like get us in to see Hinny Of The Hills.
Which is only the best musical in all of Equestria!
It must be good if Rainbow Dash is impressed.
Normally, she doesn't even like musicals.
I know.
Ponies just bursting into song in random places
At the drop of a hat.
Who does that?
♫ Oh Manehattan, ♫
♫ What you do to me. ♫
♫ Such a huge bustling community. ♫
♫ And there's always opportunity ♫
♫ To do the friendly thing. ♫
♫ If some are grouchy, pay no mind. ♫
♫ Surprise instead with something kind. ♫
♫ Lo-and-behold you may just find ♫
♫ a smile is what you'll bring. ♫
Welcome to the Mane Fair Hotel.
Please allow me to take those bags to your room for you.
Only if you'll accept this gratuity first.
Oh ho ho! I'll get your change.
Do keep it all. I insist.
♫ Generosity! I'm here to show all that I can give ♫
♫ Generosity! I'm here to set the bar ♫
♫ Just sit back and watch how I live ♫
After you.
Why, thank you.
Please take mine.
Wow. ok!
♫ Some may say, Rarity, ♫
♫ Don't be so big-hearted and bold. ♫
♫ Treating strangers like they're friends ♫
♫ This town's too big and cold. ♫
♫ But this is how I play my cards: I'm not about to fold. ♫
♫ Where I see a frown, I go to town. ♫
♫ Call me the smile patrol. ♫
♫ Oh Manehattan, what you do to us. ♫
♫ What if you find a Gloomy Gus? ♫
♫ It's no intimidating thing. ♫
♫ Just be kind without a fuss. ♫
♫ Generosity! I'm here to show all that I can do ♫
♫ Generosity! You are the key ♫
♫ Manehattan I'm here just for you. ♫
♫ Just for you. ♫
Yes, I... Suppose I had my Generous moments.
Although...
I haven't always been perfect.
Twilight, sew these pieces together
According to that pattern there.
You said if we skipped dinner at the Far Field Tavern,
You'd order a meal for us to eat
while we keep working.
Don't fret. It will be here in an hour.
That's not going to be a problem, is it?
Well...
We're supposed to be watching Hinny Of The Hills by then.
Oh. I see.
I go out of my way to get you tickets for a show,
And this is how you repay me?
By abandoning me in my hour of need?
FINE! Go and see Hinny Of The Hills tonight.
Then tomorrow morning when you come to see my fashion show
Without any fashion to show, you can have more entertainment.
Oh, why look, there's our friend
Rarity going down in FLAMES.
Isn't friendship MAGIC?
Rarity, calm down.
What's gotten into you?
What's gotten into YOU?
Go ahead, see your little show.
Congratu-pony-lations, fillies!
Sounds like you've all figured out already
It's every pony for herself in this town!
There, that's the last of them.
Finally.
You're welcome.
THE APPLEWOOD DERBY?!
Of course I'll help!
Wow, uh, Rarity, I didn't know you'd be this excited!
Me? Oh why, I'm just itching to right an old wrong
From long, long ago.
I designed my own cart when I was just a filly.
And I was positive I was going to win the prize for
most creative, hooves down.
But I came in second. Second!
You?
Second for most creative?
To whom?
But I learned a valuable lesson.
I learned to know my audience.
And the race cart audience wants big! They want bold!
Chop, chop, everypony out!
We've got work to do!
This will take all of my considerable skills,
but I will fashion the biggest and boldest derby cart
To ever win the prize for Most Creative!
Actually, I was sort of thinking of something more...
Traditional?
Oh please, darling, leave tradition to the Apples.
We're doing big and bold!
Soon the prize for Most Creative will finally be in my hooves!
You mean MY hooves.
Yes, that's what I said, my hooves.
OK, so I sketched out some of my ideas.
How about a nice yellow fringe on top?
Oh-ho, darling,
The fringe is not exactly big.
And that yellow is the least bold color I can imagine.
Well, it doesn't have to be yellow.
But I really do love the old-timey style.
Like this!
Sweetie Belle, precious face.
Old-Timey is just
another word for passé!
Remember, BIG and BOLD!
I do have a reputation to uphold!
It was one thing to lose as a filly,
but can you imagine if I didn't win the Most Creative now?
Ponies might stop buying my couture!
But we're supposed to be doing this together!
Yes, of course we are, darling.
In fact, we just finished!
Voila!
I know. You're speechless.
But if that isn't big and bold, I don't know what is.
Isn't it wonderful?
Right. Wonderful.
I was expecting an audience with the Princess, not outdoor sports.
Oh my.
Welcome to your lucky day, Rarity.
You've found the one thing in Equestria
that could rival my face for sheer beauty.
What do you think?
You like?
Yes... I like very much.
NO!
No. I shan't succumb to such fabulousness.
Must... get to the center...
To meet... the others...
MINE!!!
Well, Rarity...
It took forever, but it was worth it.
Who knew three little gemstones
Would turn out to be this handsome HUNK of a diamond?
Now to get you home.
Rarity! Are we glad to see...
Why are you carrying a humongous boulder?
What do you mean boulder?
This big, beautiful, bedazzling rock is a DIAMOND!
And it's all mine.
Keep your envious little eyes off it!
I found it and it's mine, fair and square!
Maybe those weren't your best moments.
But I can't think of a single pony whose never made a mistake.
What was that?
Is there's somepony else here?
No!
Uh, I mean... yes.
Well, not exactly.
You see...
I ask that delightful family of Racoon
from my shop in Manehattan to help out.
Smokey!
Softpad!
Careful with the expensive fabrics!
Uh, Yes. Well... where were we?
Oh... yes, it's so nice to have a change to reminisce.
Everypony soo busy with the coronation.
Still can't believe it's happening.
You really are an inspiration to ponies everywhere.
I suppose so.
But honestly...
You've always been an inspiration to me.
Me? Whatever for?
Are you kidding?
You basically build a fashion Empire from scratch.
This is the most whimsical
and wonderfully fashionable boutique I've ever seen.
In the end, Rarity's
Grand Opening
was a smashing success.
True, it got off to a rocky start...
...But somehow this ragtag group of ne'er-do-wells
Heavens!
I think he means you!
Came together and created
the perfect boutique,
a vision of Rarity, combined with the expertise
of her friends.
This reporter, for one, is a believer.
Why didn't you tell me there
were so many problems!
We all figured you had enough on your mind.
And we didn't want you to think that the opening wasn't perfect.
Ne'er-do-wells or not,
I know I can always count on all of you.
And nothing could be more perfect than that.
I appreciate hearing how much I'm appreciated.
Of course I appreciate you.
And I'm definately not the only one.
You've been very patient today, Spike.
And for that you'll get the finest reward.
This is from me to you.
Is something wrong, Spike?
No. It's perfect.
Spike, it is very noble of you...
Shhh!
...to sacrifice the gem Rarity gave you.
Oh, Lady Rarity.
My damsel in distress.
I shall save you.
Show yourselves, dogs!
You curs!
Now, where is Lady Rarity?
Spike! I knew you would save me!
Nothing could stop me,
My lady.
Oh, Spike.
You are my hero.
Hoho there, lover boy.
Um, Applejack,
Is it against the rules to trade names?
Like if I had a better idea for somepony special?
I mean specific?
If you can figure out who has the pony you want
and they're okay with tradin',
I guess it's fine.
Great!
So, uh, who do you--?
I don't have Rarity.
What?!
That's not who...
Pinkie!
I don't have Rarity!
How's your shopping going, Spike?
Uh, fine!
Which pony did you get?
I can't...
remember?
I've got Applejack, darling.
She's going to adore her present.
There's a brilliant designer in Manehattan
Fedora Felt.
Who makes the most marvelous hats.
I asked for a new take on western chic
that would be the envy of every farm pony in Equestria.
That's a great gift, Rarity.
I hope I can find something
for my pony as special as you are.
Uh, she is!
U-Uh, bye!
Hey, Fluttershy!
Thinking of getting that for your Hearthswarming Helper?
She loves shiny things.
I wish I knew what my secret pony wanted.
She's so hard to shop for.
Oh, no.
Maybe I could help.
Unless you don't want to--
Rainbow Dash.
Oh! I was just talking to Rainbow Dash about these--
Great idea!
We should trade ponies!
Wait.
Trade?
Well, Applejack said it's not against the rules.
And you know what Rainbow Dash likes, so it's perfect.
Rarity?!
What a surprise!
Thanks!
Over the years my relationship with spike has change,
but it'll always be very special.
It sounds like those Racoon need help.
We should check to make sure the racoons are ok.
No!
I mean...
No. You can't move.
Uh... For the fitting, you see?
If you start to move too much then we'll have to do it all over again.
So, I....
I will go and check on my... animals assistance.
What exactly are you doing back here?!
Surely you have enough memories by now.
Uh... Almost...
Now, where were we?
I might say, I quite enjoying this fitting.
I may not be the ruler of Equestria.
But it is nice to hear
how can I inspired pony with my mega talent for fashion
Oh come on, Rarity.
Of course you have an act for design.
But you're a lot more than that.
Perhaps I should take it from here.
You castle guards have such a difficult job.
I'm guessing that at times, it can be rather...
...boring.
It is.
I've counted all 345 bolts in the ceiling tiles
293 Times.
And of course, being a castle guard can be thankless work.
I'm not saying you did, but if you took a break,
you more than deserved it.
Aw, you're right,
We don't get a lot of recognition for what we do.
Except for last night when somepony was nice enough
to leave a cake for us.
So we did take one little break when we ate that cake.
What kind of cake was it?
Cherry with a custard filling.
Was the frosting vanilla or chocolate?
Chocolate.
Was the base the cake decorated with buttercream rosettes?
It was!
Who cares how it was decorated?
Rainbow Dash was questioning my methods,
But I knew what I was doing.
Music is very relaxing!
Sure.
Ah, much better.
Because when you have to protect yourself,
you don’t have time for anypony else.
Too bad you never taught that in school.
Rarity, are you okay?
Of course I am.
It's just lovely to hear
when a friends think highly of you.
Alright... Eh... Looks like they...
I... Have, everything I need.
Really?
Are you sure you will be able to finish this Dress in time?
Oh... that's... not your coronation Gawn.
I've finished that weeks ago.
What?!
It's gorgeous.
But, what is this?
That is a backup.
One can never be too carefull when it's come for the coronation.
I like to have all of my bases covered.
Add that to the list of things I'll never forget about you, Rarity.
