With the first-ever "Kite-con" drawing near and the Friendship Express a mere hour away from departing to Fillydelphia, Kite-con's location, Starlight Glimmer went to wake up Eric Reed. The latter had agreed to accompany Starlight as a consequence of losing a bet to her, but overslept.

However, while waking up Eric wasn't difficult, getting the human to stay awake and drag himself out of bed was a struggle. Even if Starlight would never try to hurt Eric, it didn't mean she'd go easy on him if he kept testing her temper...
