Twilight takes Braveheart's Job

Braveheart and Twilight found a nice, shady spot on the hill next to Fluttershy's cottage. Twilight spread out the blanket, while Braveheart put the basket down and started unpacking it.
"What'd you bring?", Twilight asked.
"Well, I brought you your favorite, daffodil sandwich, and for me, a spaghetti sandwich with tomato sauce, and for desert, I made this sweet cherry pie with pineapple gelato!", Braveheart smiled, handing her a wrapped parcel.
While they were eating, Twilight said, "Braveheart....on the way home, I made this list. I want you to read it aloud and tell me what you think...."
After Braveheart took the list, he read it out loud, "Drippy, Droppy, Leaky, Splasher, Clogger, and Drainiana. Sounds like a bunch of foal names.....ohhhh......."
"Well? What do you think?", she asked.
"Well, I like them. They're actually really clever, at least since you're a librarian, our little drips will be smart like you are. They'd never get that from me.", he smiled.
Twilight started nuzzling him, "Oh, Braveheart! You're smart too! You probably know more about plumbing than any book in a library would teach me!"
"You really mean it?", he asked.
"I know so! Mmmmm! This stuff is good!", she grinned, as she ate her slice of cherry pie with a blob of gelato on top, "You really made this yourself?"
"It was a recipe my mamma gave me before they left for Brooklyn.", he smiled.

After their picnic, they packed up and headed back for Ponyville.
Mrs. Cake came up with panic in her eyes, "Oh, Braveheart you have to help us! Our sink is clogged! And we can't wash any of the dishes!"
Braveheart sighed, "I don't know....Nurse Redheart's gonna kill me if I get my cast wet one more time...."
Twilight exclaimed, "You won't have to get your cast wet! You can give me directions and I'll fix the sink!"
"I don't know....I don't want you hurting yourself....I got a nasty welt on my head once....", Braveheart said with worry.
"Come on! Let's go!", she said determinedly.
When they got there, Twilight took Braveheart's tool box and opened the cabinet under the sink, "Alright! What first?"
"You turned off the water, right?", he asked, turning to Mrs. Cake.
"Oh yes! It was the first thing we did!", she replied.
"Okay, take the wrench and take out that middle pipe!", he began.
Twilight used her magic to unscrew the pipe with the wrench and taking it out and smiling, "Done!"
"Good, now check for anything in the pipes.", he grinned.
Twilight looked in all the pipes before exclaiming, "I found it!", as she pulled out a cupcake. She had gotten dirty.
Mrs. Cake could only say one thing.
"PINKIE!!!!"
