Transcripts/Fluttershy Leans In


 * [phonograph static]
 * [heroic music]
 * Fluttershy: Oh! Be careful!
 * [heroic music continues]
 * Fluttershy: [whimpers]
 * [slow motion clicking]
 * [record scratch]
 * [thud]
 * Fluttershy: [gasps] Are you okay, Angel?
 * Angel: [rattle, whimper, crying]
 * Fluttershy: I told you that entering the Ponyville Parkour Contest was a dangerous idea. You just rest here, and I'll have you all fixed up in no time. Oh, dear. I'm all out of bunny foot braces. I think we need to pay a visit to Dr. Fauna.
 * Angel: [whimpering]


 * Fluttershy: [straining] Oh, I was sure she would be here today.
 * Angel: [whimpering]
 * Fluttershy: Hello? [knocks on door] Is anypony there?
 * Dr. Fauna: [muffled] Fluttershy? Oh, am I glad to see you!
 * Fluttershy: [straining] I wish I could say the same, but the door's stuck, so I, um... can't see you.
 * [animals chattering]
 * Dr. Fauna: Ohhhh. Somebunny hurt his foot. Let's bandage that up so he can get back home. I'd like to keep him overnight, but as you can see, my place is just bursting with animals! [exhale] I don't think I can take even one more critter right now!
 * [giraffe sneezes]
 * Fluttershy and Dr. Fauna: Oh, dear.




 * [animals chattering]
 * Fluttershy: [gasps] You really have your hooves full here.
 * Dr. Fauna: [sighs] This place is like a zoo! Then again, it's normally like that, but still... I can't keep up!
 * [birds chirping]
 * Dr. Fauna: Oh. Now, does my favowite wittle bunny want a carrot pop?
 * Angel: [blows raspberry]
 * Dr. Fauna: [sighs] That's okay. I think the goats ate all of them anyway.
 * [goat belches]
 * Fluttershy: I just can't believe all these poor little animals are hurt. What happened?
 * Dr. Fauna: I'm flummoxed! Every day, there's more and more animals on my doorstep. Most of them just have minor ailments – hurt wings, stuffy noses, and such. But the trouble is even after they're all healed up, I just can't get these comfy critters to leave!
 * Fluttershy: Oh, dear.
 * [nail clippers clipping]
 * Fluttershy: They do seem to have made themselves right at home here.
 * Dr. Fauna: I wonder why they chose to flock to my office. It just doesn't make sense.
 * Fluttershy: Don't be silly, Dr. Fauna. You're the best vet pony in Equestria. At least that's what I've been telling everypony.
 * Dr. Fauna: Uh... you did what?
 * Fluttershy: Oh, no. Do you suppose it's my fault? I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen. I just know animals feel safe and happy under your care.
 * [ducklings chirping]
 * Dr. Fauna: Normally, I don't mind if a snake wants to slither in or a raccoon needs a rest, but now this place is so full, I have no space to treat any injured animals.
 * Fluttershy: That is a big problem... that I'm going to fix for you! I already have the perfect solution that'll make the critters happy and give you more space. Then you'll have all your ducks in a row!
 * Dr. Fauna: The sooner you fix it, the better!
 * Fluttershy: I'm on it!
 * Dr. Fauna: [sighs]


 * Fluttershy: I want to thank you all for rushing right over when I called.
 * [squirrel chittering]
 * Angel: [angry chittering]
 * Fluttershy: Dr. Fauna needs my help with a serious problem.
 * Twilight Sparkle: A friendship problem?
 * Fluttershy: No. Her vet clinic is a bit... maybe, um... overrun with adorable critters in dire need of a safe place to lay their heads, and... they don't have anywhere else to go!
 * Rarity: Oh, that's just awful.
 * Fluttershy: I know!
 * Applejack: Yeah. Dr. Fauna's always fixin' Winona up when she ain't feelin' too fine, so helpin' her out is A-okay by me.
 * Rainbow Dash: Hah! Yeah!
 * Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie: [general agreement]
 * Fluttershy: Oh, that's great news! Because it means you'll all be helping me with something special, too. Something that's been a dream of mine for a long time.
 * Pinkie Pie: Oh, goody! Is your dream to make a bouncy castle shaped like a gigantic bundt cake?
 * Fluttershy: Um, no. Not exactly.
 * Pinkie Pie: Huh. Just me then.
 * Rainbow Dash: So? What is it, Fluttershy? Spill!
 * Fluttershy: My dream is to build a real animal sanctuary.
 * [bird chirps]
 * Fluttershy: A beautiful habitat where every animal – whether sick or scared or even just lonely, feathered or furry, scaly or slimy – every critter would be welcome. My sanctuary can be the one place in Equestria they call home 'til they feel ready to take on the world.
 * [animals cheering]
 * Harry: [blows nose]
 * Twilight Sparkle: Wow, Fluttershy! I've never heard you speak with such conviction.
 * Rarity: Oh! That was exquisite!
 * Rainbow Dash: Pretty awesome.
 * Fluttershy: Oh, thank you, everypony. You all taught me so much about building my confidence over the years. It's because of your friendship that I finally feel able to make my dream project a reality. But I can't build the sanctuary alone. Will you join me?
 * All except Fluttershy: [eager agreement]
 * Applejack: I'm happy to offer my extra hooves to ya. Huh. Come to think of it, I actually know a filly who'd be more help than I would. She's a friend of mine from Winona's sheep-herdin' competitions – Wrangler! Heh. She's an expert in animal enclosures.
 * Fluttershy: How lovely!
 * Pinkie Pie: Ooh-ooh-ooh! I know somepony, too! Hard Hat is the best construction pony in Ponyville. He can build anything you could ever, ever, ever want!
 * Rarity: Hearing you all mention these experts, I am reminded that I too have the perfect pony to capture the essence of your vision. To give it some style, some flair! [chuckles]
 * Fluttershy: Is it you, Rarity?
 * Rarity: [chuckles] No! No. Um, I was referring to the premiere interior designer of the Canterlot elite – Dandy Grandeur. He helped me when I was setting up my Canterlot boutique. I know he'd be thrilled to work with you.
 * Fluttershy: Wow, everypony! Thank you! I can't wait to meet all of them and hear their ideas. We're right on track to building the most wonderful sanctuary in Equestria!


 * Rupert: [hissing]
 * Fluttershy: Thank you, Rupert. Ahem. It's wonderful that you all could join me to discuss the Ponyville sanctuary project. My friends have so many nice things to say about each of your talents. This is a big project, so I'm happy to have such experienced ponies working on it with me.
 * Dandy Grandeur: Rarity has impeccable taste in design and friends, so I can't wait to work with you, you know?
 * Fluttershy: I-I think so.
 * Wrangler: Yee-haw! I'm just lookin' forward to helpin' ya out, ma'am! And the animals.
 * Fluttershy: Of course.
 * Hard Hat: So, uh, Pinkie Pie said you drew up some blueprints?
 * Fluttershy: Um, not exactly. It's more of a dream board.
 * Hard Hat: Hmmm, that sure doesn't look like an animal hospital.
 * Fluttershy: Well, that's because it's not. It's a sanctuary. A place that is safe but not restrictive. Cozy but natural. A place where the animals can come and go as they please.
 * [mouse squeaking]
 * Fluttershy: So, can you build it?
 * Wrangler, Hard Hat, and Dandy Grandeur: [chuckling nervously] Uhhh...
