Millie and Melody joined the mission to rescue the Agents in the Dragon Lands, so Marshall gave them a lift on his fire truck. When they arrived in the Dragon Lands, Twilight and Spike saw Ember waving a flag to show where the Agents were. Callie and Marie had come along as well and quickly put on fire-resistant suits to shield themselves from the intense heat. Marshall got his fire truck as close as he could and then yelled to Millie and Melody.
“OPEN THE VALVES!”, he shouted after putting on his oxygen mask.
The twins each grabbed a hose and started blasting water onto the escape pod. At the same time, Ember and Spike each grabbed a hose and started dousing Callie and Marie to make sure they didn’t get fried to a crisp.
“Agents, this is Marie. What is the temperature like in there?”, asked Marie over radio.
“CALLIE, MARIE! I can’t say how glad we are to hear from you. We’ve been sweating quite a bit, but we are alright. It’s good that you guys started shooting water to cool us down. Otherwise, it would have gotten hotter than an oven in here.”, replied Agent 8.
“Great to hear that you’re okay. I would recommend that you put on your oxygen masks in order to stay alert. We’ll have you out as soon as possible.”, said Callie.
Agent 4 quickly acknowledged the suggestion and they put the masks on. Chase volunteered to help with this rescue since he had a winch on his police cruiser. Callie and Marie attached the winch to the escape pod and towed it away from the volcano so they could open the hatch. However, opening the hatch was easier said than done, because the heat from the volcano had melted the hatch, fusing it shut. Millie gave Callie a plasma torch so she could cut the hatch open. The Agents were coughing from being so hot when they got out, but they were alright, nevertheless. After taking the Agents back to Ponyville, Callie and Marie knew they had four more inklings to save, which were their parents.

Two hours after the Agents were rescued, Marie joined up with Ryder, Zuma, Skye, Minnie, and Goofy to rescue her parents in Froggy Bottom Bog. Fluttershy went along since she had been to the bog in the past, and she knew the lay of the land. Arriving in the swampy area, they turned on flashlights to light their way since the sun was setting.
Iris told Marie over headset that they’d seen the headlights and she shot a flare to let everyone know where they were. The path to Iris and Michael was treacherous and everyone came close to falling in the water at least twice, but they pressed on until they reached the pod. The capsule was already opened from the point when Iris shot the flare, but Michael had deployed the safety floats so they wouldn’t sink. Zuma threw his buoy to them and Michael caught it. Once the pod was pulled to shore, Marie helped her parents get out before giving them each a hug.
“We’re glad you’re safe, dear.”, said Iris.
“You too, Mom.”, replied Marie.
As Skye flew Marie and her parents to Twilight’s castle, she spotted a red light flashing on her controls.
“Ryder, I will need to refuel my chopper before I set out to help Callie save her parents.”, she said.
“Ten-Four.”, said Ryder.
After arriving at Twilight’s castle, Ryder helped Skye attach a fuel pump to her helicopter while Marie led her parents inside. Callie went ahead and took a seat on the helicopter while she waited for Skye to finish fueling up.

After Skye’s helicopter was refueled, it was time to save Callie’s parents. Callie had put on a life-jacket in case she had to swim and then she told Skye that she was ready. Chase had sent out his camera drone in advance to examine the location where Sally and Jerome had landed, and he noticed they were on a cliff. He suggested that using his zip-line would be a possible solution, and Ryder agreed.
“Let’s go get my parents.”, said Callie as she fastened her seatbelt.
Ryder nodded and Skye started her rotor. After taking off, Callie radioed her parents that she and some helpers were coming.
“Thank you sweetheart. We’ll use the safety light on our pod to show you where we are.”, replied Jerome.
Twenty minutes later, everyone reached Neighagra Falls and Callie pulled out her binoculars to look for her parents’ safety light while Ryder got ready on the ground. Once Callie spotted the orange glow from the light at a high point, she informed Skye, who flew her and Chase up to the ledge. After Skye had stopped and lowered Chase down to the ledge, Callie rappelled down, hammered a spike into the rockface and tethered herself to it so she wouldn’t fall to the ground. Chase deployed his zip-line while Callie opened the hatch and got her parents out. Ryder was standing ready to catch Callie, Sally, and Jerome as they came down to the ground.
After Callie had given her parents each a hug and a kiss, they clipped onto Chase’s zip-line and zipped down to Ryder. Skye lifted Chase back up to her helicopter and then attached an electromagnet to the escape pod in order to carry it to the ground. Once all of the crew members were back together, they started planning out how they would repair the Inkstar and when they would do a tour of Equus. The final plan was to start the repairs the next morning, visit all of the different regions of Equus, and then finish the repairs before doing a proper introduction to meet everyone that was with them. For the moment, it was getting late, so everyone laid down to get some sleep before they started the repairs the next morning.
