The CMC had no idea what went wrong. Cozy Glow ended up failing her test and Twilight blamed them for what happened. The CMC start to accuse one another for teaching Cozy the wrong things and it resulted with them ending their friendship. The Cutie Map detects this and sends Twilight and Cozy to make things right with the CMC.

Author's Note: This is not a sequel of Forgiveness Denied. This is more like another take on an alternative ending to Marks for Efforts.

After the events of School Raze, The Cutie Mark Crusaders are feeling hurt and betrayed after what Cozy Glow did to take over the school and erased the magic of Equestria and never got a chance to save it. So they resigned their positions as tutors of the School of Friendship and go back to Cheerliee's class as it became a shock to Twilight and her friends when they heard what happen and try to think of a plan to cheer them up and convince them to come back to Twilight's school.

After Cozy Glow was sent to Tartarus and the magic was returned to Equestria, Twilight and the school staff still had a matter to discuss with the rest of the students. All of the students were gathered to the main hall of the school to find out what their head mare had to say. Little did the students knew, it was mainly about them.

Finals had just finished up at the School of Friendship, which meant that the weekend was wide-open for the relieved students on campus. However, since the recent actions of Cozy Glow still lingered guilt across the student body, a group of students decided to take take advantage of their newfound freedom with a gracious visit. They were hoping to find the Student Six in their dorm rooms so they could present a thoughtful gift, and some much-needed apologies for their involvement with the sadistic filly. Unfortunately, the group were only met with Smolder when they tried to state their case.

And to make matters worse, the dragon did not seem too keen on accepting their forgiveness right off the bat.

Can Turquoise and her friends manage to break through Smolder's gruff exterior and prove their atonement? Or is there a deeper reason for the dragoness' resistance to their claims?

Set after Marks for Effort, The Cutie Mark Crusaders have finally been let into Twilight's school as friendship tutors, but the CMC's are still feeling hurt over the way she treated them earlier, so they call her to their clubhouse to talk about it.

In the Marks for Effort episode, Cozy Glow confesses her intended failure of her test to make things right with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Things didn't go the way it should be.
