[epic music]
I can't believe I finally got you!
Opaline is going to be so happy!
You're all she thinks about!
[gurgling]
[sighing]
I'm sorry!
But if you knew what it was like, you'd understand.
[gurgling]
Ah!

[screaming]
That was a weird dream!
I wish you could've seen it, Sparky.
Kenneth was enormous and he was stomping through Maretime Bay like a birdzilla.
Spark-spark? Buddy?
Hmm… Come on!
-Kenneth? Oh good. -[twittering]
You're not birdzilla. [chuckling]
-Have you seen Sparky? -[twittering]
Thank you! Sorry! Hmm…
Where is my little rascal this time?
-Hey, Hitch! -Good morning! Whatcha doin'?
Oh, I'm just looking for Sparky.
He's wandered off again. Like he does! [chuckling]
[gasping] Oh no!
I take back my "good" in the good morning!
-Are you okay? -Oh yeah.
He's done this before. We'll find him. No need to panic.
[yawning]
What are we not panicking about?
Sparky's playing hide-and-seek again.
Oh. Ah! Oh no!
But it's fine! He's around here somewhere.
Probably just playing in Izzy's supply closet again.
[chuckling]
So no need for a new "Operation Glitterbomb" then?
-Uh, nope. -Aww. Are you sure?
Uh-huh.
-Empty! -Huh?
I was sure he'd be here.
So was I… Um, not to worry!
[clears throat]

[Izzy playing the flute]
Sorry.

Come on, little guy…
[somber music]
[gurgling]
Is it just me or have you gotten way cuter all of a sudden?
[gurgling]
Oh, you're making this so hard!
I don't know what to do.
Take you back or give you to Opaline?
[burping]
Aw, that was cute.
And kind of gross…
Okay, that does it!
I can't do this. I can't!
I'm taking you back!
[Opaline] Misty!
What have you been doing all morning?
You've been gone forever!
[gasping]
Oh! You secured the dragon!
I can't believe it!
[gurgling]
And what a fine specimen he is!
I must admit it, Misty, I didn't think you had it in you.
Oh. I guess I did though.
Look at you, little dragon.
You're even better than I imagined.
I have the most lovely place for you to play.
Would you like to see it?
[gurgling]
[gurgling excitedly]
[sighing]
[fascinated gurgling]
Wow, you really like him, don't you?
Like him? [laughing]
I adore him.
[gasps] That's where you're going to keep him?!
Um… uh… Couldn't we find somewhere more um… comfortable?
That bubble cage looks a little, um… dangerous.
Not to worry! I'll only keep him there until he's done being drained.
And then… Well, let's just say, he'll be useless.
[exhaling]
My, that's a long drop.
[ominous music]
Sparky?
-[Hitch] Sparky? -[Sunny] Sparky? Come on out!
-[Hitch] Here, Sparky! -[Izzy playing the flute]
-Sparky, where are you? -Sparky?
Maybe the lullaby isn't working
and we can give the flute a break?
[breathing heavily]
That was starting to make my brain all twisty-turny. Ugh…
Sparky? Come out! I've got snacks for you!
Don't worry, Hitch. We'll find him.
Uh-huh. Absolutely. I've learned my lesson from last time.
Sparky will be just fine. I know it. Huh.
[somber music]
Finally, I will possess my full enhanced fire-powers!
I've been waiting for this moment for so long.
Hundreds of moons!
That's great, Opaline!
Ugh.
[gasps]
It's not great. I'm the worst pony in the world.
[Opaline] What did you just say?
Seriously, Misty, I've told you a thousand times
I can't understand you when you mumble.
Oh! I just said, you must be so excited for tonight!
Of course I am.
Now, I have to go do my pre-ceremony magic cleansing
and decorate the lair for the event.
Don't disturb me until I'm finished!
Understood?
[sighing]
[grunting]
[sighing]
I'm sorry, Sparky.
I've made a horrible mistake.
[gasps]
[sighing]
I'm going to find help! I promise.
-Not here! -Or here!
Not under mine either.
-Ooh! Look what I found! -Sparky!
Oh sorry. Yeah, he's not here either.
-But I was looking for this. -[trumpet sound]
[sighing]
Now I'm not saying I'm nervous… [chuckling nervously]
But we've looked everywhere!
Maybe Sparky got hungry and went out looking for a treat in town?
No way! I keep one of these in every room Sparky might go in
and they're all still full.
Maybe Sparky's at the magic tree again?
That's right! You did say he's been spending a lot of time there lately.
-He's very drawn to it… -Of course!
Let's go check the tree!
Okay, everypony.
Remember to stay calm this time?
[grunting]
Misty! We're about to go look for Sparky.
-Do you wanna help? -I saw him!
[panting]
I saw somepony dragon-nap him!
-What?! -It's the evil Alicorn!
I know it! I warned you ponies that we were in danger!
How did she find Sparky?!
[Hitch] What does she want?!
I know… I mean… I… saw where they went.
I can take you there. To Sparky. But we'll have to hurry!
You're sure you know which way to go, Misty?
-Positive. -How are you so positive?
I uh… I just… saw them!
You saw the evil Alicorn kidnap Sparky?
And we know somepony must've told her where Sparky is in the first place?
Well, we know it wasn't Misty. It wasn't any of us.
We would never do that to each other. Right?
Right.
[both] Right.
Right.
Now let's stay focused. Sparky needs us!
It's that way!
[epic music]
[thunder crashing]
Are you sure this is the way?
It's down there.
This is the spookiest place I've ever seen.
[humming] [gasping]
[thunder crashing]
I take it back.
This is the spookiest place I've ever seen.
Sparky's in there?!
I can't believe this is here!
She's got great style!
[clears throat] Great evil style.
What is this place, Misty?
And how do you know your way around so well?!
There's no time to explain!
Where's Sparky?!
We have to get him before Opaline comes--
Oh, I'm right here!
-[gasping] -[Opaline] Good work, Misty!
I expected the dragon, but you brought the whole set!
-Ah! -Misty?
As soon as I'm done draining that little lizard
of every ounce of his precious magic,
I'll be able to steal the source of theirs, too…
Their Cutie Marks!
[laughing]
Ah! What an added bonus.
Come, Misty.
-No! It can't be true! -She's lying! Right, Misty?
No… She's been helping her this whole time! Haven't you?
I'm sorry.
Uh, you betrayed us.
I didn't… mean…
I thought we were your friends.
No!
[humming]
I am so proud of you, Misty.
-You are? -Yes. And you've worked so hard
to earn your Cutie Mark.
You must be so excited!
I… I am.
I did work really hard. I just… wanted to make you happy for so long.
Like forever, practically.
And you've finally done it!
You'll get your Cutie Mark
as soon as I'm done draining the dragon of his dragonfire.
Isn't that exciting?
[gurgling softly]
I better go check on the others.
To um… make sure they're not causing any trouble.
[grunting]
Whew! The first forty tries were fun, but this is getting tiring.
I just can't believe Misty would do that to us.
-We're her friends. -She's not our friend, Sunny.
She was just pretending. I knew it.
I should have just followed my instincts.
She fooled us all.
And now Sparky is… gone.
[grunting] Oh…
My horn is dizzy.
We can't just sit here and let them win!
We can fix this. I can fix this!
[sighing]
I just need to change…
[grunting]
into… [grunting]
…an Alicorn! [sighing]
But uh… but I'm trying to help somepony! Why won't it work?!
Maybe I can't do it.
Maybe I'm not true Alicorn material after all.
What?! How can you say that?
Of course you are!
But I trusted Misty so much and I was completely wrong.
Wait a second…
[grunting]
It's not you, Sunny. Our magic doesn't work in here!
[gasps] That's why you can't turn into an Alicorn!
Ugh! We've got to get out of this sticky thing!
I can help.
Like you helped us get into this situation?
This wasn't the plan! I didn't mean to get you all trapped!
I brought you here to help get Sparky out. Honest.
You haven't been honest with us! Ever.
Yeah. How did Sparky get in here to begin with?
You betrayed us, Misty. How could you?
It's not like that!
Opaline found me a long time ago
when I was just a lost filly and I couldn't remember where home was.
And she… she took me in and I…
She promised me a Cutie Mark and…
I'm so sorry. You didn't deserve this.
[Opaline] Misty! Get up here!
I'm gonna fix this!
You, my dear, are just moments away
from getting your gorgeous new Cutie Mark.
I just want to watch this stinky little dragon fall first.
Uh, do we really have to drop Sparky into the water, Opaline?
I mean, he's just a baby dragon, and now, he'll be powerless so…
He's… harmless.
This harmless baby dragon has given me one headache too many.
And now that he'll be without dragonfire, I'll have no use for him.
Ta-ta, dragon baby.
Agh! Disgusting.
I have to go wash my hooves in case he got spit on me.
[scoffing] Revolting.
[breathing heavily]
Don't bother apologizing again. We don't wanna hear it!
Yeah, we're too busy trying to figure out how to get out of this mess!
The one you put us in.
I… I'm sorry. Really, I…
[sighing] Listen.
You ponies have been nothing but good to me.
You treated me better than anypony ever has.
You treated me like a friend.
And it's my turn to do the same!
I'd rather be a pony without a Cutie Mark forever
than live one more day as a pony that does the wrong thing!
Ugh!
[epic music]
[gasping]
[panting]
[grunting]
Ah!
You freed us?
I had to.
Huh?
What's happening?
[epic music]
[all gasping]
At last!
A Cutie Mark!
Helping us gave you your Cutie Mark!
I just couldn't bear to see my friends in trouble.
It… unlocked something in me.
What if… that something was me?
-The real me. -That's it!
Come on, everypony! Let's get our baby dragon back!
[somber music]
[laughing]
[Misty] Opaline! Help! Help!
Ugh, that Misty.
That pony will be the end of me.
[gasping] [Hitch] Sparky!
Don't worry, Sparky, we are here to rescue you!
[grunting]
Gotcha!
[gurgling]
[laughing] I'm never letting you go again!
[gurgling]
Okay, she's coming.
-Okay, you got this. -Hmm.
Help! Help!
Misty, what did you do?
They overpowered me, Opaline!
They tricked me and tied me up!
Where are the rest of… [gasping]
Ugh!
So, you're the evil Alicorn!
Oh. Is that what they're calling me?
Better make it evil fire Alicorn!
Opaline Arcana!
-Uh-oh. -Oh, dear.
Twilight warned us about you!
You're the one who tried to steal magic all those moons ago!
And now that I have the dragon's power, I'll do it again right now!
[laughing]
-Ha! -Woah! Whoa!
-Ah! Ah! -Oh! Whoa!
Ha-ha! Missed!
Ah!
[gasping]
[gasps] Sunny!
[gasping]
[grunting]
[Opaline] Look at me.
Do you really think you could stop a Fire Alicorn?
[laughing] Ah! Ugh!
[grunting] Leave. Sunny. Alone!
Dah! Yes! Leave her alone!
You pests!
[gasps] [grunting]
You weak little ponies can't stop Opaline Arcana!
-[gasping] -[grunting]
Ah!
-[cheering] -Uh-oh.
Maybe alone, we can't! But together, we can do anything!
[grunting]
[screaming]
Yes, you can do it, Sunny!
Way to glow, Sunny!
-[screaming] -Yeah! We have your back!
Get her!
[grunting]
[screaming]
[cheering indistinctly]
You can do it, Sunny.
[epic music]
[gasping]
Ah! Ah!
[grunting]
[groaning]
It's no use! Those bubbles are horn proof!
And sticky! Ugh!
[grunting]
Sparky! Aw, I'm so glad you're okay!
[gurgling softly]
You can't keep me here forever.
No. But I can keep you away from my friends!
Let's go!
Yeah! Get out of here, you ponies!
Hoof to heart.
[grunting]
Ugh!
That was outrageous!
No pony traps Opaline!
And look at this place!
Ugh! Those little ponies will pay for this!
They may have taken the dragon…
But I still got all the fire magic I need!
Clean this place up! Now!
Oh! [laughing]
[soft music]
Woo! Yeah! [laughing]
[gasping]
Well, that was fast. I should make you clean more often.
I was just going to say that although you may have un-earned your new Cutie Mark
by foolishly letting those ponies capture you,
at least they know you work for me now.
No reason to pretend to be their friend anymore.
[laughing] That's a good prize, no?
Of course. Thanks… Opaline.
[sighing]
[gurgling]
Are you sure there's nothing else we can get you, Sparky?
-[yawning] -[toy squeaking]
I think he's okay.
He's just gonna need some rest.
[snoring]
A lot of rest.
[sighing]
Can I just say how amazing Sunny was as an Alicorn?
-Oh yeah! Abso-tootley. -She was incredible!
I guess I was right.
The key to unlocking my Alicorn power
is to do my best to help when my friends are in need.
And not being stuck in a magical, no-magic bubble.
[yawning]
Seeing my friends in danger brought out a whole bunch of abilities
-that I didn't even know I had! -[Misty] Me too.
It's what finally gave me the courage to be who I should've been
this whole time.
Myself.
And who I really am is a pony who would never betray a friend.
I know what I did was wrong.
I totally understand if you all hate me now.
-[Sunny] We don't. -What?
-We don't hate anypony! -Yeah, I mean what you did was wrong.
-Really wrong. -But what you did in the end was right.
-Really right. -Sometimes, ponies make mistakes.
But it's what we do in the end that counts.
I promise you can trust me now.
I'll do whatever it takes to help you defeat Opaline.
Hoof to heart.
[all] Hoof to heart!
[snoring loudly]
[laughing]
[all] Hoof to heart.
[somber music]
Hmm…
If one dragon is awake, then the rest must be stirring.
With more dragonfire, I'll be able to steal all of the magic,
including the Alicorn's.
Wake up, my dragon darlings.
Opaline's coming.
[somber music]
