The scene opens at Sweet Apple Acres. Applejack and Apple Bloom are unloading crates of spoiled pumpkins. Rarity and Sweetie Belle are working the apple stand. Dash and Scootaloo are helping Big Mac haul bushels of apples. Finally, Pinkie Pie, Granny Smith, and Mrs. Cake come out of the farmhouse with freshly baked apple treats for the stand.
Applejack:
Yes, the wind blows a little bit colder
And we're all getting older
And the clouds are moving on with every autumn breeze
Apple Bloom:
Peter Pumpkin just became fertilizer
And our trees are getting older and wiser
Pinkie Pie:
That's why I rely on certain certainties
Yes, some things never change
Rarity to Sweetie Belle:
Like the feel of your hand in mine
Sweetie Belle:
Some things stay the same
CMC, their “sisters”, and Pinkie:
Like how we get along just fine
Applejack:
Like an old stone wall that'll never fall
Some things are always true
Big Mac:
Eeyup
Scootaloo and RD:
Some things never change
CMC to their sisters:
Like how I’m holding on tight to you
The scene transitions to Shining Armor’s bedroom. Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle are surrounded by cardboard boxes full of comics and action figures and are going through them.
Shining Armor:
The leaves are already falling
Sis, it feels like the future is calling
Twilight:
Are you telling me tonight you're gonna get down on one knee?
Shining Armor:
Yeah, but I'm really bad at planning these things out
Like candlelight and pulling of rings out
Twilight, giggling:
Maybe you should leave all the romantic stuff to me
Shining Armor after booping Twilight on the forehead:
Yeah, some things never change
Like the love that I feel for her
Some things stay the same
Like how comics are easier
But if I commit and I go for it
I'll know what to say and do
Right?
Twilight, still giggling:
Some things never change
Bro, the pressure is all on you
The scene transitions to Flash’s dining room. Lantern Heart, Flare Burst, First Base, and Grandma Birdie are sitting at the dining room table.
Grandma Birdie:
I’m feeling restless
I wish I wasn’t getting so old
My time is coming
I know you don’t want things to change at all
These days are precious
Can't let them slip away
I can't freeze this moment
But we can still go out and seize this daaaaaay!
The scene transitions to CHS where several students are outdoors sorting through food drive donations. Flash Sentry, Micro Chips, Derpy Muffins, and Bulk Biceps are working one of the tables while Fluttershy and Sunset Shimmer are supervising with Sunset holding a clipboard
All the students:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
The wind blows a little bit colder
Flash:
And we’re all just a little bit older
Fluttershy:
It’s time to count our blessings
Everyone at Flash’s table:
Beneath an autumn sky
All the students:
We’ll always live in a city that’s friendly
That stands for the good of the many
Sunset:
And I promise you the flag of our friendship will always fly
Fluttershy:
Our flag will always fly!
Flash and the rest of the students:
Our flag will always fly! (Our flag will always fly!)
Bulk:
YEAH!
The scene changes to a split screen of Flash’s car, Big Mac’s truck, and Shining Armor’s car driving down the street. They, several other cars, and RD’s motorcycle pull into the soup kitchen parking lot, and the scene transitions to all the volunteers working the soup kitchen.
Everybody:
Some things never change
Turn around and the time has flown
Some things stay the same
Though the future remains unknown
May our good luck last
May our past be past
Time's moving fast, it’s true
Some things never change
Sunset, pulling the rest of the HuMane 7 into a group hug:
And I'm holding on tight to you
Lantern Heart as Flash and First Base pull their family into a group hug:
Holding on tight to you
Sweetie Belle, hugging the CMC:
Holding on tight to you
Shining Armor, kneeling in front of Cadance and holding out a ring box:
Holding on tight to you
Cadance as Shining Armor slips the ring on her finger:
I'm holding on tight to you
