Fade into a quiet stretch of the park outside Ponyville during the day. As birds and butterflies cross the screen, pan to Fluttershy at a stretch of flowers. A few critters watch her pluck a bloom in her teeth and add it to the full basket on her back. Singing to herself, she trots over to a different spot and picks another one; a squirrel hurries up with a dandelion whose head has already gone to seed. A tug at her tail brings her around in a crouch to examine the offering.

FLUTTERSHY: Thank you, little squirrel. But remember, these flowers are for Princess Celestia. Only the prettiest ones will do.

A gust of wind strips the seeds away, leaving a bare stem that droops in the squirrel's paws. It sheepishly hides this behind its back, then darts away to find something else and she returns to her singing and gathering. A basket of apples has been placed on a nearby hill—evidently Applejack has been at work as well. A short chirping noise throws a scare into her, and she cries out and dives behind the basket, dropping her flowers. She peeks out warily and sees two pairs of spindly insect legs reach up over a rock. Attached to the legs is a small, spherical blue body with enormous green eyes that have no trace of whites or pupils, two pairs of fly wings, and a small smiling mouth. It chirps happily, and Fluttershy eases closer to it with a smile; the thing is a bit smaller than her eye.

FLUTTERSHY: Hello, little guy. I've never seen anything like you before.

It flies past and stops to sniff an apple that has fallen from the basket.

FLUTTERSHY: Oh! Are you hungry?

Fluttershy crushes the apple to pulp under her hoof and pushes it forward.

FLUTTERSHY: Here you go.

Instead of taking the proffered food, the creature turns around, opens its mouth impossibly wide, and devours every apple in the basket. 

The empty container falls over on its side as Fluttershy stares in amazement and gasps; it flutters back around her head

FLUTTERSHY: I guess you were hungry.

It coos happily and tucks itself into her mane, by the neck; she instantly falls in love.

FLUTTERSHY: You're the cutest thing ever.
