Twilight and Rose Time

Twilight Sparkle: Uh, Sweetie Belle, maybe we should run through the steps another few times before you try it on your own.

Sweetie Belle: Nope. Ready to give it a shot!

Rose Light: Okay then!

Sweetie Belle: [straining] Can't... seem... to...! [straining] [neck clicks] Ugh! Think I threw my neck out...

Scootaloo: Aw, you're okay.

Apple Bloom: A little more magic practice and liftin' brooms'll be a cinch!

Sweetie Belle: I doubt it. That thing weighs a ton.

[door opens]

Spike: Hey, has anypony seen my– Oh, there it is.

[whistling]

Sweetie Belle: Hmph. I'll never get my cutie mark for this...

Twilight Sparkle: Maybe not. But I'm happy to keep helping you learn just for the fun of it as long as you like.

Spike: Hey, who's gonna clean up this mess?

Scootaloo: This is no mess! These are the carefully arranged pieces of a unicycle I took apart and will be putting back together... as soon as Twilight and Rose shows me how. [squee]

Rose Light: Scootaloo, I already told you I won't show you how, but I'll help you find the instructions so you can figure it out yourself.

Scootaloo: Ugh, I hate research!

Twilight Sparkle: To your left, third shelf from the bottom. You'll find it in no time.

Coconut Harvest: Thanks so much for helpin' us all learn these new skills, Twilight and Rose.

Rose Light: Always glad to pass on my love of learning for learning's sake.

Apple Bloom: Only I'm afraid I'll never get the hang of this potion-makin'.

Twilight Sparkle: Did you follow the magic plant-growing formula I gave you?

Coconut Harvest: Well... uh... more or less.

Rose Light: Well, let's try it out on this apple seedling and see how we do.

Apple Bloom: Oh... I hope this works.

[drip]

[poof]

Twilight Sparkle: [coughing]

Seedling: [coughing]

Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle: [giggling]

Coconut Harvest: Layin' it on a little thick there, aren't we, pal?

[ball bouncing]

Diamond Tiara: Yoo-hoo! Gather 'round! It's time!

Foals: [various intrigued noises]

Diamond Tiara: As you all know, I had promised to put on an amazing, first-time-ever acrobatic display for you all today!

Foals: [cheering]

Diamond Tiara: I know, it's so exciting. But I'm tired.

Foals: Awww...

Diamond Tiara: But I did not wish to disappoint you all, so I brought my butler Randolph to do them for me.

Foals: [cheering]

Silver Spoon: That was amazing, Diamond Tiara.

Diamond Tiara: I know. I don't know how I do it.

Apple Bloom: I can't believe she gets so much attention without even really doing anything!

Scootaloo: She's using somepony else to build herself up, and without even putting any effort to learn her own skills like we do!
