After the group split up and went to check out the film lot together, Rarity and Fluttershy were outside of Chestnut Magnifico's trailer. Cereza, Celadon, Sunset Blaze, Silver, and Bianca joined them and they talked about what they were doing. "Maybe we shouldn't bother her when she's in her trailer," Fluttershy said to Rarity in concern.
"Darling, please. Actresses love interacting with their fans," Rarity countered.
"Well, that all depends on what they're like offscreen," Silver remarked as he stood next to the fashionista. Suddenly, the trailer door slammed open, hitting Rarity and Silver as Fluttershy gasped. "Ow! My face!"
After quickly getting over the pain, Rarity and Silver poked their heads out from behind the door. As Rarity tried to get the attention of Chestnut, the actress was yelling to somebody on the phone. From the way she was talking to them, it was likely her agent. "Ugh! I don't care if I'm under contract! This is a joke, and I want this thing shut down! Do you hear me?!" Hanging up her phone, Chestnut Magnifico stormed off without noticing any of the teenagers around her trailer.
As the actress walked away, Rarity giggled nervously as she and Fluttershy looked at her in fear. "She probably just didn't see us," Rarity said.
"I doubt that. I think she didn't even care of our presence," Cereza countered.
"Even huntsman and huntresses back in Remnant don't like too much attention," Sunset Blaze added.
"She looked like she was ticked about something with her agent from that call," Bianca remarked as she checked to see if Silver was okay.
Celadon sighed as she looked at everything. "I guess an actress isn't the dream job it was either," she said before the group headed off. As they did, a woman with dark skin and white hair watched them leave, laughing to herself quietly before sneaking into the trailer for herself.
At the set for the jungle volcano, Sunset Shimmer and Applejack were checking out the area. Joining them were Rua, Rebecca, Vinyl, and Lapis. "Hmm. Wonder how long it takes to build somethin' like this," Applejack questioned.
"Several weeks, I bet," Sunset Shimmer mused.
"Almost reminds of Vacuo before the Great War ravaged the landscape. The plants make it seem like the pictures I've seen in history books," Lapis mentioned as the girls looked all around the set.
"They sure do go all out makin' it look like the real deal, huh," Applejack remarked before everyone heard a crunching sound.
Seeing where the noise came from, Sunset Shimmer lifted her boot to see that she stepped on a candy wrapper. "Though I don't think the rainforest is known for its... Bon Mot peanut butter praline crunch bars," Shimmer stated as she inspected the wrapper.
"Who would throw this on the ground like that," Rebecca questioned.
"Annoying litterbugs," Rua muttered as she looked around to see if anybody was still around.
"Better pocket that," Applejack said to Shimmer. "Wouldn't want it ruinin' the shot." Putting the wrapper in her jacket, Sunset Shimmer smirked at the girls before they continued to check out the different sets. As they left the false jungle, a young man with glasses came out of hiding and typed away at a laptop that had images of the girls who just left. As the screen reflected in his glasses, the computer soon showed live surveillance of the rest of the movie lot and his attention was focused on a set that resembled a town bazaar.
In a village set for the Daring Do movie, Rainbow Dash and Twilight were captivated by some of the props for the film as Slate stood next to them. "Wow! These are the three Altoriosa Relics," Rainbow Dash said with a gasp before she and Twilight zipped over to where the props were placed.
"Cool," Slate said as he approached at a more casual pace while Twilight and Rainbow looked at the relic props up close.
"The Staff!"
"The Sword!"
"Don't forget the Arrow of Altoriosa," said a new voice. Turning around, the three saw a girl about their age with glasses and bluish hair. "You're from Canterlot High, right?"
"Not me. Just visiting," Slate clarified while Rainbow and Twilight said they were.
"I'm Juniper Montage, Canter the director's niece," the girl told the three before gesturing to the relics. "What do you think?"
"They're awesome," Rainbow Dash exclaimed as she was unable to contain her excitement.
"Pretty cool," Slate said. "They look really detailed."
"A. K. Yearling is very hands-on when it comes to the sets and props for the movie," Juniper explained.
"Have you met her," Twilight asked.
"Just once when she came to check out the relics. I did get her to sign a copy of the latest Daring Do book, though," Juniper said with a squeal of excitement over getting an autograph. A feeling that the girls all shared while Slate shook his head in amusement.
"So what do you do here," Twilight asked.
"Yeah. If you're the director's niece, then you probably have something to do while you're here," Slate added.
"Mostly, I bring my uncle coffee and help get everything ready for shooting. I've been on the set for all the movies he's shot here. Pretty much know every inch of this place like the back of my hand," she explained with a giddy giggle. "I even took lessons from stuntmen in order to learn how to defend myself. I tried to convince Uncle Canter to cast me as Daring Do, but... he didn't really go for that," she stated with a bitter tone when she mentioned trying out for the role she wanted before instantly speaking in a cheerful voice once more. "Hey! Have you guys seen the set for Caballeron's secret lair?"
Rainbow Dash gasped at the idea of seeing another set for the film while she and Twilight shook their heads, excited to see the next area. "Seeing the bad guy's hideout would be pretty cool," Slate said as he agreed to checking out the location.
"They usually lock the door to that set, but I've got keys that open just about every door in this place," Juniper said as she pulled out a set of keys, grinning with pride. "Come on. I'll show you." As Juniper led the three to the locked set, a male in a blue hoodie inspected the relics. Smiling to himself as he looked at the prop sword, he soon turned his attention to the four that left and followed them quietly. As he did, a raccoon tail was shown poking out of his clothes before he hid it away again.
In the craft service area, Pinkie Pie and Spike were sitting down while they talked to Momo, Azalea, and Vixen about what they found on their search. "Three lunch buffets, six different kinds of fondue, two rooms with nothing but candy, and still no cupcake fountain," Pinkie listed and expressed her frustrations while the other girls ate what they grabbed from previous stops. "Oh, well. At least we found those peanut butter praline crunch bars! They weren't in my guidebook, but they sure were delicious!"
"I'll say," Spike sighed with satisfaction as he patted his belly. "You think they got any more?"
At the mention of the praline bars, Azalea's face scrunched up in disgust. "Bleh... I'm not a fan of peanuts. You can have them," she said to the others, prompting Momo to grab another bar she had in her pocket and took a bite out of it.
As Pinkie looked at her tour guide pamphlet again, Vixen noticed a commotion at the tables and saw Canter Zoom talking to Chestnut Magnifico. "What's going on over there," she asked and everyone's attention was caught.
"Ahh! One more month, Chestnut! That's all we need," Canter Zoom pleaded with the actress as she looked for something at the table. "I'm doing everything I can to keep us on schedule! But with all the setbacks we've had, I don't think we can do it! If you could just agree to stay on for one more month...!"
"Unacceptable," Chestnut exploded in anger. Believing that Chestnut was refusing to continue working, Canter Zoom tried to talk with her again before she interrupted him. "Where are my imported peanut butter praline crunch bars," the actress questioned as she couldn't find the candy anywhere.
Looking at their feet and seeing all the praline crunch bar wrappers, the girls and Spike all looked nervous. "Now would probably be a good time to resume the search for that cupcake fountain," Spike whispered. Nodding in agreement, Pinkie and Vixen started to back away while under the cover of the Fox Faunus' illusions.
Azalea and Momo, on the other hand, stayed behind as the latter held a few unopened candy bars in her hands. "Should I give them back to her," Momo asked Azalea.
"It would be the right thing to do," Azalea said to Momo like she was her own little sister and was teaching her a lesson about honesty. Before Momo could approach Canter Zoom and Chestnut, Azalea saw a large and familiar man talking them first. "Stay quiet," she warned the girl as she used her Semblance to make the two invisible.
"Are you looking for these," the large male asked as he handed Chestnut Magnifico a few praline bars. "I've been finding them around the place. Somebody else must have been sneaking them from you," he remarked as he grabbed a plate and helped himself to whatever was available at the buffet.
"Thank you. I needed one of these about now," Chestnut said as she took a bite out of the imported candy and left, prompting Canter Zoom to follow her while the large male went his own way.
"Now that my newest member of the security team found your snacks, can we talk about the schedule," the director asked as the two left the craft service area.
Deactivating her Semblance, Azalea looked at the man who gave Chestnut her candy back. "What's Tremor doing here? And why is he security," Azalea asked as she knew the man was a member of Smoke Shadow's gang of thieves.
"We should tell the others when we can," Momo said as she took another bite of the candy bar she had opened.
