- Twilight! You've gotta come! Quick!
- I've already told you, Spike. I don't wanna show off Trixie.
- No, you don't understand. It's...
- Uh, is that what I think it is?
- Majorly.
- Great and Powerful Trixie, you've got to vanquish the Ursa!
- Yeah! Vanquish so we can watch.
- It took a lotta trouble to get that thing here.
- Wait! You brought this here?! Are you out of your little pony minds?
- But you're the Great and Powerful Trixie.
- Yeah, remember? You defeated an Ursa Major.
- Uh, okay. Stand back. Piece of cake.
- Oh, come on, Trixie.
- Stop goofing around and vanquish it, eh?
- Well, that was a dud.
- Yeah. Come on! Where's all the cool explosions and smoking? Stuff like earlier, you know.
- What's going on?
- We brought an Ursa to town.
- You what?!
- Don't worry, the Great and Powerful Trixie will vanquish it.
- I can't.

- And after whupping that Ursa's hind quarters we're even prouder.
- You are?
- Wow, Twilight! How'd you know what to do with that Ursa Major?
- That's what I was doing when you came looking for me. I was so intrigued by Trixie's bragging that I was compelled to do a little reading up on them.
- So it is possible to vanquish an Ursa Major all by yourself?
- That wasn't an Ursa Major. It was a baby. An Ursa Minor.
- That was just a baby?!
- And it wasn't rampaging. It was just cranky because someone woke it up.
- If that was an Ursa Minor then what's an Ursa Major like?
- You don't wanna know.
- Huh! You may have vanquished an Ursa Minor but you will never have the amazing showstopping ability of the Great and Powerful Trixie!
- Why, that little...
- Just let her go. Maybe some day she'll learn her lesson. Now, about you two.
- Oh, we're sorry that we woke up the Ursa Minor.
- We just wanted to see some awesome magic.
- Yeah! And the way you vanquished that Ursa Minor was awesome!
- We deserve whatever punishment you give us.
- For starters, you can clean up this mess. And... What do you think, Spike? Should I give them number 25?
- Oh, twenty five, yes. And I think I deserve it too.
- I think you're right.
- Sweet!

- Dear Princess Celestia. I have learned a very valuable lesson about friendship. I was so afraid of being thought of as a showoff that I was hiding a part of who I am. My friends helped he realize that it's okay to be proud of your talents. And there are times when it's appropriate to show them off. Especially when you're standing up for your friends.
- So, you finally admit that you're the most talented unicorn in all of Ponyville?
- Well... yeah. But it's nothing to brag about. So, uh, how did it go with Rarity?
- Eh... She didn't go for the mustache.
- You know, Spike, that mustache has nothing to do with who you really are. Maybe you should just try being yourself?
- Or... Maybe the mustache wasn't enough? Maybe if I had a mustache and a beard?
- Ugh... Not this again.
- Okay. Imagine me with a nice, long Fu Manchu-type beard. Or maybe a goatee? Oh, no. A soul patch...
