THAT WAS MEANT FOR MY EX-FRIEND.

I'M NOT YOUR EX-FRIEND.

YOU'RE MY EX-FRIEND.

BOTH OF YOU, STOP!

SO, YOU SEE, FRIENDSHIP ISN'T ALWAYS EASY,

BUT THERE'S NO DOUBT IT'S WORTH FIGHTING FOR.

"FRIENDSHIP ISN'T ALWAYS EASY,

BUT THERE'S NO DOUBT IT'S WORTH FIGHTING FOR."

I'VE GOT A SURPRISE FOR YOU.

WHAT IS IT, TWILIGHT? DO I NEED TO PREPARE MYSELF?

IT'S THIS!

UGH. WHAT IS THAT THING?

WHY IS IT SO SMELLY?

WAIT A MINUTE!

IS THIS OUR OLD FRIENDSHIP JOURNAL?

I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS THING IN FOREVER.

HOO-WEE.

IT'S LOOKING A LITTLE, UH, OVERRIPE.

I'LL SAY.

THERE'S A SMUSHED APPLE IN APPLEJACK'S LESSONS.

FLUTTERSHY'S LESSONS ARE SO SMALL,

YOU CAN BARELY READ THEM.

I, UH, WANTED TO LEAVE ROOM FOR ALL OF YOU.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THIS IS.

IT IS CALLED CALLIGRAPHY, DARLING.

IF YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE WORDS,

AT LEAST MAKE THEM FABULOUS.

LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT A LITTLE AGGRESSIVE

WITH YOUR FRIENDSHIP LESSONS, RAINBOW DASH.

WHAT CAN I SAY?

WHEN I LEARN SOMETHING, I LEARN IT HARD.

I FOUND PINKIE'S PAGE.

TA-DA. STARLIGHT AND I DECIDED

TO MAKE ONE FOR EACH OF YOU.

THAT'S AMAZING. A PERFECT COPY.

I LEARNED THE SPELL YEARS AGO WHEN I NEEDED TO MAKE COPIES

OF A CERTAIN... [CLEARS THROAT] MANIFESTO.

[ SNIFFS ] AHH.

EVEN BETTER THAN A PERFECT COPY.

OH. I'D FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT THIS LESSON.

[ CHUCKLES ]

REMEMBER THIS ONE, FOR WHEN I HELPED DARING DO?

"NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF FRIENDS

WHO ALWAYS GOT YOUR BACK."

AW, CHEESE SANDWICH. PARTY CANNON!

AH, BIRTHAVERSARY!

AFTER TWILIGHT REMEMBERED THE JOURNAL,

I HAD SO MUCH FUN READING ALL THE STUFF

YOU'VE ALL LEARNED,

I JUST HAD TO HAVE MY OWN COPY.

AND THAT BRINGS ME TO THE SECOND PART

OF THE SURPRISE -- MY IDEA.

HOW WOULD YOU GIRLS FEEL ABOUT MAKING

OUR JOURNAL AVAILABLE FOR EVERYPONY?

IF WE CAN GET THESE LESSONS INTO OTHER PONIES' HOOVES,

MAYBE THEY'LL BENEFIT FROM THEM.

WELL, I THINK THAT'S A GREAT IDEA.

I'M IN. YAY!

WE -- WE ALWAYS SAID WE WANTED TO.

SOUNDS FABULOUS.

WHY NOT? YOU LOVE PLAYING HOPSCOTCH.

NO, YOU DO BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS WIN.

HEY, GIRLS. I COULDN'T HELP BUT OVERHEAR.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE A BREATHER,

MAYBE READ RAINBOW DASH'S CHAPTER ON RAINBOW FALLS.

IT MIGHT HELP.

SURE, PRINCESS.

THANKS, TWILIGHT.

THE FRIENDSHIP JOURNAL IS MAKING US SUPER POPULAR.

OH.

WE WERE THINKING OF PUTTING TOGETHER

A CUTIE MARK SUMMER CAMP.

NOW EVERYPONY IS DEFINITELY GOING TO SIGN UP FOR IT.

THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME.

A CUTIE MARK CAMP IS A GREAT IDEA.

YEAH, BUT THE PURPOSE OF THE JOURNAL

ISN'T SUPPOSED TO BE MARKETING.

I JUST HOPE THOSE FOALS ACTUALLY LEARN SOMETHING

FROM OUR LESSONS. -THEY WILL.

I'M SURE PONIES ALL ACROSS EQUESTRIA

WILL -- WHOA.

UH, HELLO. CAN I HELP YOU?

WE'RE HERE ALL THE WAY FROM PHILLYDELPHIA

BECAUSE WE GOT COPIES OF YOUR FRIENDSHIP JOURNAL.

WOW. HOW WONDERFUL.

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE FRIENDSHIP...

WILL YOU SIGN THEM?

OH. UH, I GUESS SO.

SO WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE LESSONS?

OH. WE HAVEN'T READ THEM. THESE ARE KEEPSAKES.

WE'VE GOT TO KEEP THEM IN MINT CONDITION.

OH.

WOW. THAT WAS WORTH THE TRIP.

[ ALL TALKING EXCITEDLY ]

DON'T WORRY, TWILIGHT.

I'M SURE LOTS OF OTHER PONIES

ARE BEING INSPIRED TO BE BETTER FRIENDS.

WELL, I, FOR ONE, FOUND THE JOURNAL

TERRIBLY ILLUMINATING.

OH! I AGREE.

I'M SEEING SIDES OF THESE PONIES

I DIDN'T KNOW WERE THERE.

I ONLY WISHED THEY'D LEFT RARITY OUT.

SHE CLEARLY DOESN'T BELONG IN THAT BOOK

WITH THE REST OF THEM.

OH, I KNOW. WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS?

CERTAINLY SHE DID A FINE JOB

SETTING UP THE PONYVILLE DAYS CELEBRATION,

BUT DOES SHE REALLY BELIEVE IT WAS A SUCCESS

JUST BECAUSE OF HER?

THE NERVE.

[ CRYING ]

BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT SHE WAS SAYING.

RARITY!

OH, POOR RARITY.

SHE OVERHEARD ALL THE MEAN THINGS

THOSE PONIES WERE SAYING.

SHE MUST BE DEVASTATED.

I'M GOING AFTER HER. -GO AHEAD.

I'M GOING TO HAVE A CHAT WITH THESE TWO.

[ CRYING ]

RARITY, WAIT!

TWILIGHT! ISN'T IT AMAZING?

OUR JOURNALS ARE EVERYWHERE!

-PINKIE, I'VE GOT TO -- -PONIES KEEP STOPPING BY

TO TELL ME MY ENTRIES ARE HILARIOUS.

I EVEN HAD SOMEPONY COME ALL THE WAY FROM LOS PEGASUS

TO SAY HOW MUCH HE LIKED MY LESSONS.

I AM SO GLAD TO HEAR SOME PONIES

ARE BEING INSPIRED BY THE JOURNAL.

HEY, LOOK! THERE'S PINKIE PIE, THE FUNNY ONE.

[ LAUGHTER ]

GIGGLY FEEDBACK IS THE BEST KIND!

WELL, AT LEAST YOU'RE GETTING A POSITIVE REACTION.

I JUST SAW RARITY, AND I'M AFRAID

THIS WHOLE JOURNAL THING REALLY UPSET HER.

AW. THAT'S TOO BAD.

WAIT. THAT WASN'T EVEN FUNNY.

[ LAUGHTER ]

OKAY. WELL, I GUESS I'LL CATCH YOU LATER.

YEAH. BYE, TWILIGHT!

SHE'S EVEN FUNNIER IN REAL LIFE.

YOU'VE KNOWN ME FOR YEARS!

[ LAUGHTER ]

Rainbow Dash: MAYBE IT'S TIME TO CALL IT A DAY.

I RIPPED OUT ALL THE TWILIGHT SPARKLE LESSONS

BECAUSE THEY WERE GETTING IN THE WAY OF THE GOOD ONES.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU SKIPPED THE LESSONS?

WE'VE ALL HAD VALUABLE EXPERIENCES.

HEY. HERE'S A GREAT IDEA.

WHY DON'T YOU GUYS TALK TO TWILIGHT FOR A WHILE,

SO I CAN GET BACK TO THINGS LIKE WORKING

AND NAPPING AND, WELL, PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING ELSE?

AW. WE DON'T WANT TO HEAR HER BORING LESSONS.

COME ON. TELL US AGAIN

ABOUT WHEN YOU MET DARING DO.

[ CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY ] AGAIN?

HAVEN'T WE ALREADY COVERED THAT ONE A COUPLE DOZEN TIMES?

WE CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT.

COME ON. YOU DON'T WANT TO DISAPPOINT YOUR FANS.

TO GET THOSE STORM CLOUDS BACK IN THEIR PENS.

-WE WANT ANSWERS! -YEAH!

WE'RE ENTITLED TO KNOW! -WHAT IS IT, EVERYPONY?

WE WANT TO KNOW WHY FLUTTERSHY KEEPS LEARNING

THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

BE ASSERTIVE ALREADY.

EVEN I'VE LEARNED MORE THAN SHE HAS.

WHY CAN'T I BE IN THE BOOK?

WHAT? REALLY?

ARE YOU ATTACKING MY FRIEND

BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE IN A BOOK?

IT'S OKAY. I'VE GOT THIS, GIRLS.

[ INHALES DEEPLY ] LISTEN UP. I AM MORE ASSERTIVE.

AND, YES, IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO GET THERE.

BUT CAN YOU HONESTLY SAY

THAT YOU CAN LEARN SOMETHING ONE TIME

AND COMPLETELY CHANGE WHO YOU ARE?

I DIDN'T THINK SO.

WOW.

YOU'RE WAY DIFFERENT FROM THE FLUTTERSHY IN THE BOOK.

I DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THAT.

OH.

IT FEELS LIKE EVERYPONY IN EQUESTRIA

IS MISSING THE FRIENDSHIP PART

OF THE FRIENDSHIP JOURNALS.

RARITY, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

AAH!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WHY, I'M CREATING A GOWN, DARLING.

FOR WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW. I'M STRESS SEWING.

STRESS SEWING?

WHEN I OVERHEARD THOSE TWO AT THE CAFé,

I SUDDENLY UNDERSTOOD WHY

I'VE BEEN GETTING CANCELLATIONS FOR DAYS.

WHAT? WHY ARE PONIES CANCELING THEIR ORDERS?

BECAUSE NOPONY LIKES ME ANYMORE.

THEY'RE BOYCOTTING ME.

I'M SURE IF I GO OUT THERE AND TALK TO THOSE PONIES,
