All fueled up.

Thanks, Mrs. Cake!

Out the door.

Meet the day.

Ponies, ponies everywhere.

Smile and wave.

Smile and wave.

There’s Lyra.

Minuette.

Applejack!

Berryshine.

Hello, Hey, and Howdy.

Smiles all around.

No cheer needed here.

What to do, what to do?

Bored.

Find a bit.

Pick it up.

Have good luck.

Impromptu song number.

Bored again.

Someone has to need a smile.

But who?

Wait!

Sweetie Belle’s frowning!

Fix that.

Get her attention.

Shout real loud.

Got it?

Good.

Watch closely, Sweetie.

The humble banana!

Peel, eat.

Drop peel.

Slip.

Crash.

Classic.

There’s that smile.

And a chuckle.

It’s not so bad now.

Another day made brighter.

There she goes.

A job well done.

Bored again.

Sugar crash.

Yawn.

Going down.

Mayday.

Need a fix.

To the tree!

In the trunk.

Find a cupcake.

For cupcake emergencies.

Sugar crash averted.

Crash, crash...

Dash!

Where’s Rainbow Dash?

Not here.

Not there.

Not anywhere?

Check again.

There she is.

Hey!

Did she hear?

Hey!

Get down from that cloud!

Down, silly!

Come on!

There we go.

She’s down all right.

In the dumps.

Fix that.

Wanna do pranks?

Rubber Chicken?

Whoopie Cushion?

Whoopie Chicken?

No?

How about jokes?

No?

Too late!

Knock knock!

Knock knock!

“Who’s there?”

Avenue!

“Avenue who?”

Avenue heard this joke before?

Eh?

Eh?

Nothing.

What’s wrong, Dashie?

“It’s a long story.”

Time's no problem.

Stay a while.

Listen.

Uh huh.

I know.

Uh huh.

Yep.

Hm…

Tough cookie.

Advice?

Well...

Try again, Dashie.

I believe in you.

You can do it.

Trust me!

It gets easier.

Now put a smile on.

Wider.

You're doing great!

Now get going.

You'll knock 'em dead.

And I want to hear about it.

Tonight.

At...

My...

Party!

Of course there's a party.

When don't I throw parties?

Right?

I'll see you there.

Step one: plan party.

To the store.

And we're walking.

Derpy.

Twist.

Rarity!

Heya, Hiya, and How you doing?

Through the store door.

Buy balloons.

Streamers.

Confetti.

More confetti.

More.

Too much!

Perfect.

To Sugarcube Corner!

Step two: decorate.

Get help.

Cakes are busy.

That's okay.

Hang the streamers.

Make a banner.

Blow up balloons.

Arm confetti cannons.

Looking good.

Could be better.

But still good.

Step three: prepare invitations.

One for her.

One for her.

And especially for her.

Invite the whole town.

Why not?

How many ponies live here, again?

...

Bake more snacks.

Bake even more snacks.

There.

Step four: deliver invitations.

This is a singing telegram!

I hope it finds you well.

You're invited to a party.

Because I think you're really swell.

- - -

No, it's not a birthday.

I had no actual reason.

But why not stop by anyway?

Since this is the party season.

- - -

There's plenty of confetti.

I bought a metric ton.

So be sure to come on down.

And we'll all have lots of fun.

Continue singing.

Cough.

Keep it up.

Doing great.

Hack.

One more...

Wheeze.

Drink honey tea with lemon first.

Done!

That's all of them.

Every pony in Ponyville.

Step five: wait.

Wait.

Wait.

Check clock.

Wait.

Check clock.

Party time!

Step six: party party party party party!

Twilight!

Big Macintosh.

Fluttershy!

Glad you could make it.

Glad you could make it.

Glad you could make it.

Yawn.

Sugar crash detected!

Drink some punch.

Wait.

Drink all the punch.

Sugar high!

Make more punch.

Check on things.

"Great party, Pinkie!"

"Turn the music up!"

"I'm so glad you invited me to this party, darling. You have no idea how much stress I've been under lately. I've just had so many orders from Manehattan since my line of sapphire-encrusted hats with tiny golden trimmings debuted. It's been nothing but work all week, and it hardly helps matters that Sweetie Belle's been gallivanting about in my workshop like it's some kind of theme park. I could go on, darling, do you want me to go on? No, hold that thought. They're starting another round of truth or dare, and this may be my only chance to get Fluttershy to tell me where she gets her mane done. I'll speak to you more about it later. Wait for me!"

Party's doing well.

Everyone's having fun.

Confetti cannons on full blast.

Tell a joke.

"Avenue who?"

Avenue heard this joke before?

Always gets 'em.

Bake more treats.

Mix more punch.

Rainbow Dash!

How'd it go?

Knew you could do it.

Here, have a cupcake.

It's got rainbow sprinkles.

Now go have fun.

I'll see you later!

Schmooze a little.

Eat a dozen cupcakes at once.

Impress everyone.

Disgust Rarity.

Turn the music up.

Improvised dance routine.

Hope this lasts forever.

Party.

Party harder.

Party hardest.

Party over.

Everyone's going home now.

They're going.

Really.

Say goodbye.

Seeya!

Later!

Come back next time!

That's everyone.

Bye, Derpy!

That's everyone.

Music off.

Lights out.

Fall down.

Get up.

Clean up.

Don't throw up.

Cough.

Crack shoulders.

Get to work.

Throw out treats.

Dump the punch.

Sweep confetti.

Get another bag.

Sweep the rest of the confetti.

Stop.

Take a breather.

It's quiet.

Too quiet.

Back to work.

Put the games away.

Take down the streamers.

Pop the balloons.

Done.

Party's over.

Everyone gone.

Cakes asleep.

It's quiet.

Go upstairs.

Shut your door.

Check the drawer.

Here's the rope.

There's a chair.

End it?

Not today.

Brush hair.

Brush teeth.

Look in the mirror.

Smile.

Mean it.

Lights off.

Get to bed.

Fluff pillow.

Get cozy.

Sleep.

Tomorrow's a brand new day.
