“Adam, Adam!” A crowd of reporters flash their cameras.
“Yes um, yes, you there."
"Adam," a reporter asks, holding up a notepad, "how do you feel?"
"Like I never want to eat sugar ever again."
"Well that's silly!" Pinkie throws a two-pound cupcake into her mouth. Adam holds a hoof over his muzzle.
"Adam!" Featherweight raises a hoof. "Was it delicious?"
"It was the best seven-pound cupcake I've ever had."
"Would you do it again, Adam?"
"No!"

The credits begin to roll.
"Do you have any questions, comments, or any ideas of where I should go next? Then mail me here." He points to a PO. Box address that flashes at the bottom of the screen. "I'll see you there. Thanks for watching."
The film finishes up with the Pony vs. Food logo, and the copyrights tags of Travel Cinema.
The next film begins to play; My Little Human, Princess Promenade Saves The Rainbows.

Epilogue
The lights to Lyra's and Bon-Bon's place click on.
"I don't know what's worse." Bon-Bon rubs her head. "How you and Noteworthy ran out of the theater when they began to play that human movie, or the fact that you did so. I thought you two were obsessed with that, human stuff."
"Hey," Lyra says, "first of all, we only like the present My Little Human franchise. That previous generation is for little foals."
"Lyra, it's all for..." she shakes her head. "Whatever, it's not worth it."
Lyra shrugs. "Suit yourself. I still can't believe Noteworthy's a homie." She sighs heavily and leans into the wall.
"You both know that's never going to catch on?"
"Uh-huh, sure." There's a knock at the door. "I'll get it." Lyra walks off. Bon-Bon heads to the kitchen to make some tea.
"Thank you, Derpy," Lyra's voice echoes across the house. "Yes, I'll see you at the My Little Human movie premiere. Goodnight." Bon-Bon rolls her eyes.
"What you got there?" Bon-Bon asks as Lyra levitates a box into the living room.
"Just some My Little Human merchandise." She opens the boxes, which containa several dolls and comic books.
"Of course it is."
"Oh, but I have something for you too." Lyra levitates a cubby human doll with black hair over to Bon-Bon.
"What is this?" Bon-Bon tentatively pokes the doll.
"A humanized version of Adam Rice. I got it on sale from a friend." Lyra grins toothily. "You like?" The doll soars over her head and lands in the trashcan.
"For the last time, I was suffering from a lack of proper vitamins and minerals." Bon-Bon turns her head away. "If that pony ever steps foot in this town again, I could care less."
"Whatever you say" Lyra nods and lets out a yaw. She picks up her package and heads up stairs. "Goodnight, Bon-Bon."
"Sure." Bon-Bon sips her tea. She makes herself comfortable, but once the door to Lyra's room snaps shut, she races over to the trashcan.
She takes out the Adam doll, nuzzles it furiously, and sulks over to a secret passageway. Inside is a shrine to Adam Rice. It has posters, pictures, film reels and Pony vs. Food burrito wrappers.
She sets the Adam doll down next to a lock of his mane and a restraining order signed by Adam and his lawyers.
"Two more years, Adam." She heavenly rubs the doll's nose. "And we'll be together, forever."
"Is that so?" Bon-Bon jumps at the sound of Lyra atop the stairs.
Bon-Bon is lost for words as she stares helplessly from Lyra to her collection.
"No more making fun of my obsession?"
Bon-Bon sighs. "No more."
