[dishes clinking]
Spike: [sighs] You know the worst thing about you two being the Princesses of Friendship? The dishes.
Twilight Sparkle: Thanks for taking care of that, Spike. After three events in one week, I really needed to relax with a good book.
Spike: It's kinda funny, isn't it? All these ponies comin' to you for advice about friendship?
Rose Light: What's funny about that?
Spike: You know, 'cause you used to be famous for being such a bad friend.
Twilight Sparkle: What are you talking about? I had good friends in Canterlot.
Spike: Come on, Twilight. Look at the wall. D'ya see any photos from before we moved to Ponyville? And look at you now – the Princess of Friendship with Rose as Princess of Friendship too.
Rose Light: [gasps] This is a disaster! All her old friends! Twi can't remember any of their names right now! But do you really think that they think she's a bad friend?!
Spike: Well, I only meant that you've come so far. You're a great friend now and—
Twilight Sparkle: Oh, I feel terrible! I've gotta make it up to them! Pack a bag, Spike! We're going to Canterlot! And make a list of my friends' names.
Spike: Aw. Me and my big mouth. Come on, Twilight and Rose. You're getting worked up about nothin'.
Rose Light: The only logical place to start is at the beginning.
[doors open]Twilight Sparkle: Oh. It's exactly how we left it! [blows] Look! It's Predictions and Prophecies! And it's still open to the Elements of Harmony!
Spike: And here's that present I was gonna give Moon Dancer! Huh. Guess she won't be needing that. Hey, look! The rest of it's still here!
Rose Light: How could I have let this happen?
Spike: Come on, Twilight. Princess Celestia gave you an assignment. Nopony could blame you for that and you were not here Rose, it's not your fault.
Twilight Sparkle: But look at the way I left this place. It's a total mess! Just like how I left my friendships.
[window squeaks]
Rose Light: She's gotta make it up toooo... uh...
Spike: Oh! Uh, Minuette, Twinkleshine, Lemon Hearts, Lyra Heartstrings, and Moon Dancer.
Twilight Sparkle: Yeah. Them.
Spike: [snoring]
Rose Light: Spike! Come on! We've got work to do!
Spike: [groans] Have you been awake all night?
Twilight Sparkle: I did a little research, and I think I know where we can find Minuette! That is one of my friends, right?
[knock on door]
Spike: Uh, it's not too late to forget I opened my big mouth.
Rose Light: No, Spike, I'm glad you opened your big mouth. These ponies have probably been suffering ever since Twi left. Wondering why their supposed friend would treat them so badly!
[door opens]
Twilight Sparkle: Minuette?
Minuette: Twilight Sparkle! [laughs] You old so-and-so! What are you doing here?! Hey, Spike! Look at these wings, huh and you must be Rose Light?! [giggles] Hey, grab a picture of me and the princesses, will ya?! I tried to tell my co-workers we used to be friends back when. [giggles] But they've never believed me!
