- I never thought being showered with favors would be so aggravating. Fluttershy! Not you too.
- Oh! Well, hello, Twilight. I hope you don't mind but we're all doing a little spring cleaning for you.
- It's summer.
- Oh. Well, better late than never, right? It was Angel's idea.
- You're not doing this for the ticket, are you?
- Oh, no! I'm doing this because you're my very best friend! Right, Angel? Yes. We are just doing this for the ticket.
- No, no, no! Well, this is all very nice of you and Angel, but I'm not accepting any extra favors until I've made my final decision. So I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
- Surprise! Twilight is my bestest friend, whoopee! Whoopee!
- Pinkie.
- She's the cutest, smartest, all-around best pony! Pony!
- Pinkie!
- I bet if I throw a super-duper fun party! Party!
- Pinkie!
- She'll give her extra ticket to the Gala to me!
- Pinkie!!!
- Yes, Twilight?
- At least the other ponies try to be subtle about the ticket!
- Wait. What ticket? What gala?
- Oh, you didn't know? Twilight has an extra ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala!
- The Grand Galloping Gala?!
- Have I ever told you how much I love your mane?
- I'll wash your dishes!
- Would you like any help with your gardening?
- I have a cartload of extra carrots.
- What are we gonna do?
- We're gonna run!

- Twilight, you don't have to do that!
- Nope, I've made up my mind. Spike, you can send the letter now.
