Lolly-Pop

Twilight Sparkle: This carnival has everything! Rides, games, and not to mention—

[loudspeaker feedback]

Flim: You can even clown all around Ponyville town!

Flam: Step right up, fillies and gentlecolts, and see the spectacle for yourselves!

[crowd cheers]

Flim: I'm Flim, he's Flam, and these are our trademark Flim and Flam Clown-o-Rama kits!

Flam: These state-of-the-art makeup kits will turn everyday ponies into one-of-a-kind clowns! Why, even you could be!

[crowd cheers]

Crowd Pony 1: I want one!

Crowd Pony 2: Ooh! Ooh! Me, me! I need one!

[cash register dings]

Fluttershy: I need one of those kits!

Twilight Sparkle: Oh, my, Fluttershy! I've never seen you this...

Fluttershy: Excited? Exuberant? Exhilarated?! I'm all of them! As a young filly, I'd dream of becoming a clown! Lolly-Pop the Clown! And now's my chance!

[zip!]

[rumbling]

Fluttershy: One Clown-o-Rama kit, please!

[zip!]

Fluttershy: [giggles]

Pinkie Pie: [giggles] That ride was incredible!

Applejack: [laughs] I know! Let's go ride it a—!

Twilight Sparkle: Check out Fluttershy! She's living her fillyhood dream of being a clown!

Ponies: Yay!

Applejack: [shudders]

Fluttershy: Not just any clown. I'm Lolly-Pop the Clown!

[honk!]

Fluttershy: And I'm performing tonight in the Carnival Clown Jamboree. Everypony who brought a makeup kit gets to show off their sillies. I can't wait to show you my moves!

Applejack: I... uh, gotta gallop and go! I think I saw some weeds that need pickin'!

[zip!]

[vroom!]

Fluttershy: Oh, dear. Is she okay?

Pinkie Pie: You just focus on practicing for the jamboree. We'll get to the bottom of this.

Applejack: [grunts]

Pinkie Pie: Applejack? Oh. I guess you weren't kidding.

Twilight Sparkle: Uh, picking weeds?

Applejack: It's what I do on the farm when I need to clear my mind.

Twilight Sparkle: You missed one.

Applejack: [yelps]

Pinkie Pie: Just a moment ago, you were having the time of your life. Now you're jumping like a frog. What's up?

Applejack: [grunts]

[ribbit]

Applejack: Well, it's embarrassin', but... ever since I was knee-high to a pig's eye, I've been plumb terrified of clowns.

Twilight Sparkle: That explains it.

Applejack: All I know is when I see a clown, I want to gallop away.

Pinkie Pie: Good news. Fear not. Rejoice! You have something now that you didn't back when this fear developed.

[zip!]

Pinkie Pie: Us!

Twilight Sparkle: I know exactly how to help. You've gotta become what you fear!

Applejack: That sounds... insane.

Pinkie Pie: Juggle these. And don't pretend you can't. It's been established that you know how.

[zip!]

Applejack: Hey! I think it's workin'! [whimpers] Now I'm afraid of myself!

[zip!]

Flam: It's Flim Flam Clown Jamboree time!

Flim: Now put your hooves together for... Giggle Glue!

[zip!]

Pinkie Pie: Wow! You look great! You ready?

Fluttershy: I think so. Where's Applejack?

Twilight Sparkle: She didn't want to ruin your big night, but the truth is Applejack's afraid of clowns. So... she's not coming. I'm sorry.

Fluttershy: What?! Nope. Nopey-nope-nope! This was just a silly filly's dream. But no dream is worth a friend's nightmare. Nope. I'm not performing.

[squeak!]

Applejack: [whimpering] Did I miss it? Is it over?

Twilight Sparkle: Not exactly. When Fluttershy found out how you were feeling, she decided not to be a clown anymore.

Applejack: But I never wanted my fear to get in the way of Fluttershy's dream. Aw, drat. What now?

Twilight Sparkle: Sometimes things don't work out perfectly. There isn't always a clean solution, which – believe me – really noodles my noggin.

Pinkie Pie: Ha! "Noodles" is such a funny word! [giggles] Try saying it, Applejack. It'll cheer you up.

Applejack: Yeah, Pinkie, that really doesn't help. [gasps] Wait. Cheer me up. That's it!

[vroom!]

Fluttershy: [sighs] Huh? [screams]

Applejack: You need to go on stage and do your clown thing!

Fluttershy: So you're not afraid anymore?

[screech!]

Applejack: Nope, I still am. But I know that you're just tryin' to cheer ponies up. And I think that's pretty great. So I can try to conquer my fear and turn it into fun. [chuckles nervously] For a friend like you.

Flim: Well, folks, I think that's the end of our jamboree.

Fluttershy: Not so fast! [grunts] Lolly-Pop's here to bring on the cheer!

[crowd cheers]

Flam: Good luck, kid. But rhyming's our thing. Watch yourself.

Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, and Pinkie Pie: [cheering]

[crowd gasps]

Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie: [gasp]

[zip!]

[crowd gasps]

Applejack: I'm here to help... Lolly-Pop!

[crowd cheers]

Little Miss Fortune

Pinkie Pie: I can't believe it's the last day of the Crystal Empire Carnival! Can we do it all over again?

Twilight Sparkle: According to the map, we rode all the major rides, so that just leaves the Big Top.

Rainbow Dash: I'm game for whatever as long as it means more fun before we're done.

Fluttershy: Ooh! What does that do?

Applejack: Wow! It's an old lucky cat machine. I heard if you pull its paw, a fortune'll pop out.

[click!]

[meow!]

[ding!]

Pinkie Pie: [reading] "You'll find sweet success on the savory path you've chosen. Your lucky item is a spork." Ooh, that was fun! Now to find a spork.

[click!]

[meow!]

[ding!]

Fluttershy: [reading] "Your lucky number is... your lucky number." Wow! How lucky!

Rainbow Dash: Those were all so cool!

[click!]

[meow!]

[ding!]

Rainbow Dash: [reading] "Life is like a traveling circus. Stay in motion, or the fun will end." But I don't want the fun to end!

Twilight Sparkle: Don't take it personally. It's not like the machine actually knows us.

[click!]

[meow!]

[ding!]

Twilight Sparkle: [reading] "Your element is magic, and you'll always stay by your friends." Whaaaaat?!

Pinkie Pie: [laughs, squeals] A spork!

Rainbow Dash: They're already coming true! [whines] Everypony's fortune was lucky. But mine is just a bad sign.

Pinkie Pie: Maybe you should just keep moving. Like this!

Rainbow Dash: You're right, Pinkie. If I do what it says, then it won't come true. Obviously I should join the circus!

Rest of Mane Six: [gasp]

Rainbow Dash: If I travel all around Equestria, then the fun will never end!

Twilight Sparkle: I don't think that's what Pinkie meant.

Rainbow Dash: I can't just stand around. I gotta keep moving! Or the fun will end!

[zip!]

Rest of Mane Six: [sigh]

Rainbow Dash: Shining Armor! Just the ringmaster I needed to see! I want to join the circus.

Shining Armor: Well, we're always on the lookout for exciting new acts. But we're about to leave Ponyville.

Rainbow Dash: And that's exactly what I need to do!

Shining Armor: Well, then I don't mind giving you a shot in the Big Top.

Rainbow Dash: I'm in! Now the fun will never end! Take that, fortune!

Fluttershy: [giggles]

Shining Armor: Tonight, we introduce a new high-flying member – Danger Dash!

[crowd cheers]

Shining Armor: For Danger Dash's first trick, she'll attempt to cross the tightrope...

[crowd gasps]

Shining Armor: ...wing-tied and blindfolded...

[crowd gasps]

Shining Armor: ...while answering math questions!

[record scratch]

Rainbow Dash: Wait, what?! One plus four is more than the square root of [???] of an apple pie-aye-ayeeeee!

[boing!]

Rainbow Dash: Whoa!

[crash!]

Twilight Sparkle: You always had it.

Rainbow Dash: I'm just not cut out to juggle so many things at once. But that doesn't mean I'm a one-trick pony. There's surely something—

Shining Armor: Our next event for the evening is the Cage of Constant Worry!

[thunder]

[crowd cheers]

Applejack: I'm worried just lookin' at it.

Twilight Sparkle: Don't be. It's Rainbow Dash, after all.

[zoom!]

Twilight Sparkle: They wouldn't let her do something too dangerous.

Shining Armor: You're about to see something very dangerous that few stunt ponies have ever attempted! Without using a motorcycle!

[clang!]

[crowd cheers]

Twilight Sparkle: Okay. Now I'm worried, too.

Rainbow Dash: [grunts]

[whooshing]

Rainbow Dash: I... can't... STOP!

Twilight Sparkle: Oh, no!

[magic sounds]

Rainbow Dash: [screams]

[crash!]

Rainbow Dash: [groans]

Rarity: Darling, are you all right?!

Rainbow Dash: I am. But something's just not right. I've gotta see if Shining Armor has any acts left to try. I know I was meant for the circus. Give me another shot.

Shining Armor: Well, we do have one last part we couldn't fill on such short notice. But it requires a costume change.

Rainbow Dash: Count me in!

Shining Armor: Thank you, everypony, for joining us for our final act!

[crowd gasps]

Shining Armor: [whispers] Be ferocious!

Rainbow Dash: Roar?

Audience Pony: Huh?

Rainbow Dash: Uh... roar?

[crowd booing]

[tomatoes splatting]

Applejack: We came to say goodbye, but why is your frown already upside-down?

Rainbow Dash: Because I was so busy worrying about my fortune, I totally forgot how when we're together, it's always a super-awesome rollercoaster of good times! Things never stop moving here!

Fluttershy: Does that mean you're not leaving Ponyville?

Rainbow Dash: You betcha!

Rest of Mane Six: [cheer]

Pinkie Pie: Step right up! The show is just about to start!

Cutie Mark Crusaders: [cheer]

Rainbow Dash: Welcome to Rainbow's Daring Danger Dash Show!

Cutie Mark Crusaders: [cheer]

Rainbow Dash: Now, everypony put your helmets on!
