Wow!
Is all this for the Cotton Candy Comet Festival?
Oh, of course, darling!
It's going to be an unmissable,
Once-in-a-lifetime,
Extra-grand extravaganza!
I've booked the incomparable DJ Pon-3
As our musical accompaniment.
And I've 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.
Hmm...
Considering relative speed, mass, and density,
And of course factoring in Ponpernicus' law of celestial bodies,
I predict that it's impossible to calculate exactly when it will arrive.
All right, but if you had to?
Say, down to the second?
Hmmm...
I guess 8:23 PM and 12 second?
I knew your noodle could do it!
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...
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!
Huh?
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 trying to 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.
Ooh!
Welcome, welcome, welcome
To the Cotton Candy Comet Festival!
Gaze upon the most astounding sight your pony eyes have pony-seen!
Tomorrow?!
Uhhhh... Just kidding!
This was another dress rehearsal!
See you all tomorrow for the real deal!
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
But 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.
Ooh! 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-comet-arrivals,
I thought my enthusiasm would've dwindled,
But no.
I too am excited!
And I've been thinking.
What if we use 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 a 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!
Get your comet stuff!
Remember the thing you haven't done yet
Before it happens
So you'll never forget it again after it does!
Oh!
New T-shirts!
Yeah!
And they say "I Saw the Comet and All I Got Was—"
Hi, hi, sorry, sorry, give me 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 eNeigh.
These... Are... Perfect!
Sorry, can I just, uh...
I wanna grab that silly straw.
Oh. I'm sorry.
Here you go!
I've seen sillier.
I need those glasses.
What?
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.
And... Complete order!
Ugh, okay.
Aw, shucks, Rainbow.
I'm sorry about the glasses.
It would've 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?
Uh...
How do I look?
Uh, like you?
But more "ap-peel-ing"?
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'll be two hundred bits, please.
Two hundred?!
Hah!
That's ten times what they cost online!
No way, pal!
Rainbow Dash?!
Uh, um...
Er...
Well, w-we gotta go!
Good luck with your price gougin'!
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 apple shack before the comet viewin' tomorrow.
For once,
You're gonna be glad I never throw anythin' away.
Huh?
Comet glasses!
Get your comet glasses!
Only two hundred bits a pop!
Nopony?
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 squirrelled away.
So Rainbow and I figured a way
That the whole town could enjoy 'em.
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 with friends like this?
Ugh!
