The theater curtain rises, revealing a stage play. Wooden houses and trees at the background, clouds hanging on wires resemble the sky, the lights focus on our main characters: a filly and a foal. She: yellow coat, red mane and a bow. He: orange coat and purple mane. Both dressed as children from a neighborhood. She with a pink dress, he with a blue-striped shirt and a baseball cap. She at the right and he at the left. Guitars begin to play, drums begin to rumble and they dance.

The scenery changes from a village to a jungle, the stage goes completely black and ponies wearing tribal masks appear on the background, the music tunes up. Both kids hug each other and look directly to the eyes.
“I’m your friend, till the end. ♪”
The tribal ponies sing on chorus at unison.
“Count on me. ♪”

The tribal ponies retire, the music tunes down and the scenery changes to an open field and both dancers look at the front, to the audience.

“There is not a thing that I wouldn’t do! ♪”
“I’ll follow you to the end of the earth, ♪”

Now she spins him.
“I’ll be more than here to lend a helping hand. ♪”
Then stops.
“Don’t you ever doubt me! ♪”
For a last time they face the public, holding hands with the rest of the cast.
“I’ll be there someway somehow, ♪”
“That’s what bein’ friends is about! ♪”
“I’ll be there someway somehow, ♪”
“That’s what bein’ friends is about! ♪”
All the cast kneels, the music stops, the audience yells loudly and the taps are unanimous. The ponies head down, the theatre curtain falls.
