Prologue: A pie for Sugar Belle
Big Mac watching a pie in the oven.
Celestia, why!?
"You said it, Big Mac. This is taking forever!"
"I know it's wrong to cut corners when it comes to gifts from the heart..."
"...but this is an emergency, right?"
"Eeyup."
"Discord? A little help?"
"Discord!"
Nothing happens.
Spike sighs and Big Mac gets an idea.
Spike still upset, Big Mac whispering idea.
"Yeah? Oh! Good idea!"
"Captain Wuzz!"
"Are you prepared to enter the world of Ogres & Oubliettes?"
POOF!
"Huzzah, fellow adventurers!"
"Shall we storm the ramparts of Squizard's castle..."
"...to reclaim Calico's Ring of Imperceptibility?"
"Not exactly."
"You did summon me for..."
"...a rousing Guys' Night of Ogres & Oubliettes, did you not?"
"Uh, sort of."
"But do you think you could magically hurry up this pie real quick first?"
"You seem to be mixing up..."
"...the Lord of Chaos..."
"...with a second-rate clown magician for hire."
"Eee..."
"...wait!"
"This needs to go in the mail today..."
"...or it'll never get to Sugar Belle in time for Hearts and Hooves Day!"
Embarrassed giggling.
"Please."
"Can't you see that that holiday...
"...is a commercialized ruse pushed on you..."
"...by the greeting card industry?"
Cute sad puppy dog eyes. (At first I thought he was crying, but turns out he wasn't.)
"Fine."
"You owe me for this."
Hoof bump!
"Keep your eye on the pie."
"It's magic time!"
Hearts and Hooves Day surprise
The pie.
Discord smelling the pie.
"This smells..."
"...uh... palatable."
"Well, pies really are Sugar Belle's thing."
"But I think that makes this all the more special."
"It shows you're interested in what she cares about."
"Eeyup!"
"And he's planning a big romantic Hearts and Hooves dinner."
"It was my idea to bake the invitation inside."
Finger Snap.
Discord sees the card.
Discord opens the card.
"Hearts and Hooves Day, Sugar Belle. Meet me in my barn at sunset for a surprise."
"Pretty clever, huh?"
"Ugh."
Another finger snap.
The Pie.
Squee!
Wrapping the pie.
"Awww."
"'Sugar Belle'."
"Well, you two certainly have bought into..."
"...this romance nonsense hook, line, and sinker."
"For a formerly friendless immortal despot, you're pretty cynical."
"I'm a realist."
"And love, like all things warm and fuzzy, isn't real."
"Aw, come on. You act tough..."
"...but deep down, you're a softie."
"You don't have tea with Fluttershy every weekend because you like tea."
"But I do like tea! Every tea! All the teas!" (Sure you do, Discord.)
"Chamomile, Earl Grey, green..."
"...white, yellow, mate, lemon, ginger, chai, spearmint, peppermint, hibiscus..."
"...cinnamon, pumpkin spice."
Groan.
Big Mac walks out the door.
"Tell you what. While Big Mac mails his incredibly romantic gesture..."
"...I'll show you the splendors of Hearts and Hooves Day in Ponyville."
"I bet I can prove you believe in love."
"Fine."
"Call it a gentleman's wager."
"Loser mows my lawn for eternity."
Spike and Discord shakes hands.
"Is it, like, a riding mower or...?"
"Tweezers!"
Sending a package in the mail
The post office.
Big Mac walks in.
He gives the package to Derpy.
Big Mac excited.
He hops away.
Derpy picks up the box.
Puts it into the shelf.
Ink on Derpy's hoof.
Shrug.
Wiping off the ink.
Ponies working.
Pony picks up Big Mac's package.
Tosses it to another pony.
Orange pony holding boxes.
Tosssing the package to another pony.
Purple pony kicks Big Mac's box into the cart.
Letters and Bic Mac's package
Cart driving away.
Sweetie Belle's secret admirer
Sweet Apple Acres.
"This special Hearts and Hooves Day meetin' of the Cutie Mark Crusaders is now in session! First order of business..."
"...helpin' my big brother decorate the barn..."
"...for his big date with Sugar Belle tonight and..."
"...Hello?"
Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.
"It seems like everypony's got somepony special but us."
"When's it gonna be our turn?"
Apple Bloom opens the door.
Apple Bloom looks around.
Apple Bloom notices the package.
"Who's it from?"
"Can't tell. It's all smudged, but it looks like it's addressed to... 'Belle'?"
CMCs confused.
"'Sweetie Belle'!"
Sweetie Belle opens the package.
The pie.
"Somepony certainly went through a lot of trouble for me!"
"On Hearts and Hooves Day!"
"You don't think..."
"Could it be...?"
"Hang on a minute."
"Mysterious package..."
"...smudged address, no idea who it's from..."
"I know what this is."
"You've got a secret admirer!"
Cutie Mark Crusaders happy.
A surprise visitor in Ponyville
Hearts and Hooves day in Ponyville.
"We just saw Sugar Belle!"
"She's at Sugarcube Corner! But I think she's on her way over here now!"
Eavesdropping / "We're finished"
"Will you warn me next time you do that?"
"Now, where's the fun in that?"
"We need to talk."
"You're right. She did surprise him."
Big Mac drowns his sorrows
Emergency Guys' Night
Finding the secret admirer
"It's okay to say no!"
Setting up Big Mac on a date
Hiding from one's problems
Sugarcube Corner / "We need to talk"
Letting out one's feelings
Edge of town / Proper communication
Here, let me help you, Sugar Belle.
The happy couple is back together.
Let's get this wagon all fixed up.
I guess there's a lesson about communication and talking out feelings rather than assuming and eavesdropping. Will you agree Big Mac?
Eeyup.
Sweetie Belle's special ponies
