Now, Zee, Zuzy, and Georgie are all looking for Pony, calling his name.

"Pony?! Oh, Pony!?" Georgie calls out.

"Well, nobody's seen him", says Zuzy.

"Aw, I feel terrible!" says Georgie, sounding worried. "I've never seen Pony so upset. Oh, Pony?! Pony?!"

The three children find Pony sadly sitting on a hill next to a tree.

"Are you okay?" asks Zee.

"No, I'm not okay", says Pony, sadly.

"Sorry it didn't work out with Zizzy", says Zuzy.

"We don't get it", says Zee. "Big, grand gestures always work in the fairy tales."

"But Zizzy's not a fairy tale princess", says Pony. "She's a real person. She's kind, she works hard, and she's sweeter than everything in a bakery."

"That's it!" says Georgie. "We should have been thinking about what would mean a lot to Zizzy!"

"I know just the thing!" says Pony, lighting up. "But, I'm going to need your help."

"You sure? After we messed up?" asks Zee.

"Sure I am. Come on!" says Pony.
