After the two mare's switched back to their original bodies, a lot more happened than expected.

The first thing that Rarity did when she returned to Carousel Boutique was wash her mane, muttering something about Pinkie Pies uncleanliness.

The first thing that Pinkie Pie did was FINALLY feed Gummy his Gum-Gums, and to this day Gummy is still finishing off his first one.

Rarity found her dress, and even though she sobbed for hours about what to wear to the party,she eventually decided to stick to the one Pinkie had looked at earlier.

Pinkie Pie had to pay 100 bits to the Cake's for ruining the kitchen (Pinkie Pie had a very long chat to Rarity about that...).

The Party went on as planned, and everypony in Ponyville came. It was the best darn party that Pinkie Pie had ever pulled off. Rarity wore her dress that Pinkie chose, and everypony thought it was brilliant (much to Pinkie AND Rarities relief.)

The second cupcake batch that Raripie baked was superb, so despite ruining their kitchen, Pinkie Pie was given a pay rise for it (50% of this goes to Rarity, alas.)

Twilight always wondered when the fashion play Pinkie Pie was in was going to start, and every time she asked, all Pinkie could say was:

"Um... ask Rarity?"

The Cutie Mark crusaders got into a lot of trouble for stealing smarty pants off of Big Macintosh, and he was later seen combing the dolls mane tenderly at Sweet Apple Acres.

Oh, and one more thing.

A week before the incident, Twilight Sparkle was visiting Zecora. Whilst getting her weekly ingredients and drinking herbal tea with her like every other week, Twilight Sparkle noticed that Zecora seemed to be working very hard on something, something magical.
"Zecora? What is that your working on?"
"Oh what? This silly object?" Zecora put it down. "This is just my newest project."
Twilight stared at it for a while.
"It doesn't seem very stable Zecora, do you want me to help with it?"
"Oh Twilight, I must show resistance, for I do not want any assistance!"
Twilight shrugged.
"Well, if you say so. Anyway, I have to get going, I have some planning sheets to make."
She bid Zecora farewell and left the hut.
Zecora pondered over what the Alicorn had said to her.

"Perhaps she is right, I am not able, after all, this really isn't stable."
The next day, she walked deep into the forest with her project, and threw it into a bramble bush.
"If I leave it here, I expect, that nopony shall find my unstable project..."

After checking that it DEFINITELY didn't work, she left her chest in the brambles...
