Prologue: Slingshot to Cloudsdale
"You wanna come. But we talked about this."
"Non-Pegasus ponies fall through the clouds."
"I think we're good."
"We are?"
"Besides, how else could I get there?"
"A Pegasus chariot?"
"A flock of birds?"
"A hot-air balloon?"
At least she won't end up covered in tree sap this time.
"WOOHOOOOOOOO!!!"
Almost there
Headfirst
"Nailed it."

Hey, do I recognize you?
"You're..."
"You're..."
"You're..."
"...Rainbow Dash's dad!"
"Uh, yes. Bow Hothoof at your service."
Cue theme song and commercial break, because Scootaloo's so much excited that she wants to scream.
Well, all six main ponies seem to have both a mom and a dad. Family is a big thing after all.
Feathers: a common thing for Pegasi to use as hands.
"Heavens to Celestia, what's wrong with her?!"
"I don't know, but you just made it worse."
"Sorry! It's just you're..."
"...Rainbow Dash's parents!"
"She's doing it again!"
"Oh, dearie, please! You might shatter my Princess Celestia commemorative plates!"
Uh-oh. That's not good for those poor plates.
"I can't believe I'm meeting you!"
"I'm doing a school report on your daughter!"
"Our Rainbow Dash?"
"The report's on an inspirational pony in my life..."
"...and nopony inspires me more than she does!"
"I'm her biggest fan!"
"Now, little trotter, what you say is impossible."
"Because nopony is a bigger fan of our Rainbow Dash than us!"
"Whoa! You always wear that shirt?"
"Actually, it's, uh, laundry day."
"But pretty great, right?!"
"What can we help you with?"
"Well, I know all about Rainbow Dash's time in Ponyville..."
"...but I don't know anything about her life before that."
"You came to the right place!"
Rainbow Dash's parents' house
"Here you go! Rainbow Dash's favorite meal!"
"A pasta and potato sandwich on sourdough!"
"She just loved to carbo-load."
"I can't believe I'm eating Rainbow Dash's favorite food made by Rainbow Dash's mom while sitting in Rainbow Dash's childhood kitchen!"
"This is the greatest day of my life!"
"I think it's time for a tour of the house."
"Okay!"
"Our little Dashie was an early learner and so rambunctious."
"The combination was—"
"Exciting!"
OMG!!!
"She's so adorable! Can we keep her, dear?"
"No, honey, she already has parents. ...I think."
"No, honey, she already has parents. ...I think."
"That's so Rainbow Dash!"
Includes a coupon for "20% Cooler" and the original design for Scootaloo's cutie mark.
The trophy room / Our daughter's a Wonderbolt?!
Friendship is what all it needs to win.
What's with the beautiful choir?
"I, uh, installed the sound effects myself."
"Pretty great, huh?"
"So great!"
"And look at this!"
"She was wearing it when she spoke her first words."
"So cool!"
Scootaloo has every picture of RD...even picture-in-pictures?
Eeyup. She had loads of trophies. Like the one when she took her first flight (and broke a lamp).
And the time she had her first tooth by eating an apple. (Man, does she love apples?)
"So many memories!"
"You're so lucky to have all of these!"
"Well, I may have a ton of Dash-mentos..."
"...but I don't have any of those "Rainbow Dash Saves Ponyville" headlines like you."
"Trade-sies?"
"Deal-sies!"
Wow. They really are fans.
"So where's all the Wonderbolt stuff?"
"You mean Rainbow Dash's personal collection of Wonderbolt memorabilia?"
"No. I mean, where's all the stuff about Rainbow Dash getting accepted into the Wonderbolt Academy and then getting chosen as a Wonderbolt?"
You didn't know that your daughter was accepted into the Wonderbolts?
"Wait, you don't know that your daughter's a Wonderbolt?"
"And I got to tell you?!"
"Oh, wow! You should see your faces right now!"
"See? That's what your faces look like."
"Our daughter's a Wonderbolt?!"
Nailed it once again.
"Great timing."
"Great door."
""You two were kind enough to show me the Rainbow Dash you know."
"Now please, allow me to show you the Rainbow Dash I know."
At Wonderbolts Academy
"Let's make some thunder!"
"I was born to make thunder!"
"Our baby's a Wonderbolt!"
"We've got turbulence!"
"How? Where's it coming from?"
"How? Where's it coming from?"
"I'm so proud!"
Episodes of any show like this needs to have a cool dude(ette) being embarassed by her/his parents.
"Okay. Which pony broke protocol and invited guests to our training exercises?!"
"I guess they're with me."
"Mom, Dad."
" So... good... to see you."
"Oh, honey, it's so great to see you, too! And wow!"
"You were so amazing up there with all of that flying!"
"Uh, how did you know I was here?"
Guess who noticed them.
I don't know which is funnier; her face in the photo or the sandwich.
"And these must be your Wonderbolt friends!"
Meeting the Bolts / Embarrassing Rainbow Dash
"Hello, team!"
"I'm Windy Whistles..."
"...the mom of the best Wonderbolt ever!"
"Yeah!"
Annoying moment
"Just kidding."
"You guys were great, too! Go, team!"
"Moooom!"
Rainbow Dash embarrassed while Scootaloo laughs
"Hello, ma'am."
"Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you as well..."
"...and love those goggles!"
"Love 'em!"
"You know, I have goggles, too."
"But they're mostly just for swimming."
"Oh, and bath time."
"Mom, please!"
"They don't wanna hear about your bath time!"
The Wonderbolts' big showcase
"And she admired him so, too!"
"Dear, if we ever meet him, I'll need your help resisting the temptation to slip locoweed into his salad."
"Your folks were definitely loud, but they weren’t that bad."
WARNING!
"Wow." I stand corrected.
+100 Humiliation
Too much parental support
"Wooo!"
Tornado Bolt taking the torn piece of t-shirt in front of Rainbow Dash (winner again +100 Humiliation)
Quick! Dedication!
Thanks and have a nice day! (Or not)
"Cut the ribbon! Cut the ribbon!"
Devolved!
Oops...
Rainbow Dash explodes in anger
"Stop!"
"This is ridiculous!"
"Mom and Dad, you are both too supportive!"
"This is exactly why..."
"...I didn't tell you I was a Wonderbolt!"
"You're just..."
"...too much!"
Yeah, Rainbow Dash...
...some foals can only dream of having such a loving family as that!
