Aaaghhh!
Whoa!
Where are we?
♪
I don't think we're in Ponyville anymore!
FLUTTERSHY: Oh, okay. Take me to your leader!
(EFFORT NOISES)
BOTH: Fluttershy?!
(GASP)
Wait! If we're gonna rescue Fluttershy,
we have to be strategic.
But did you see that robot mind control helmet?!
They're tryna make her into one of them!
All the more reason to have a plan!
I think if we--
Two more unidentified ponies located! Commencing--
(SCREAMING)
Not one step closer,
you big metallic monsters!
Monsters?
(ROBOTIC LAUGHTER)
We are mechaponies, not monsters.
I am a Mobile Atlas Protection Sentinel,
but you can call me Natalie.
And I'm THE PULVERIZER!
Warning: I'm a hug machine!
I'm Twilight Sparkle, and she's Rainbow Dash.
We did not mean to alarm you.
We wanted to help.
Like how those other mechaponies helped our friend
by ponynappying her?!
Oh nanos. A mechapony would never.
Oh, we must have been mistaken.
Maybe one of you could help clear things up by taking us
to Fluttershy?
Scanning for Fluttershy!
Fluttershy found!
Location: Sucrose Quadrant.
I'll believe it when I see her!
Deception is not in our ponygramming.
We will show you.
ROBOTIC VOICE: Turn left on Saccharine St.
Twilight, this is so obviously a trick.
Look at them, they're big shiny metal-robo-pony-bots who--
Who are actually pretty friendly!
Let's give them a chance. We need to find Fluttershy!
FLUTTERSHY: Help! Help! I'm stuck!
It's locked!
I'll fly up and see if I can spot another way in!
This shape looks familiar.
Woah! Aaaahhhh!
TWILIGHT!
Gah!
RAINBOW DASH: I knew it! This IS a trap!
PULVERIZER: Oh sorry,
some mechapony must have tripped on a circuit.
Wait... this is Sugarcube Corner..
We know it as Sucrose Quadrant,
owned and operated by Q. T. Pie.
(HYPER GIGGLE)
Sucrose... Sugarcube...
Wow! Whoa...
It's almost the same on the inside!
FLUTTERSHY: Oh, help! Hellppp!
Fluttershy! I'm coming!
(IMPACT NOISE)
Oh no!
I'm too late, they've made you into their mechapony queen!
Rainbow Dash, did you come to play too?
This VR game feels so real!
You mean-- you haven't been assimilated yet?
What about their leader?
The leaderboard for this game is great!
I bet you could get first place like Twilight did.
Oh, there you are!
These computer chip cookies are so good!
So...you weren't ponynapped?
(GIGGLING) - Uh-uh!
Oops.
I'm sorry I was so quick to judge you
based off the way you look.
Just because a mechapony is scary on the outside,
doesn't mean you're scary on the inside!
Affirmative. Friends?
(STRUGGLE NOISES) (CRUSHING)
Yep, a real hug machine.
Great! Now that we are all friends,
let us play this new game!
THE DS-83.
It's my calculator!
I think we need it to get back home.
But they think it's a game. What are we gonna do?
Don't worry. I have a plan!
Sorry Pulverizer, that's not a game-
it's Twilight's Calculator!
Do you think we could have it back?
That's right! My plan was just to ask!
Brilliant move!
Looks like our next one should be to head home...
(ZAPPING)
Thanks! I hope we see you again one day in the future!
- Bye! - Buh-bye!
BOTH: You'll be back!
(ROBOTIC LAUGHTER)

Wah-hoo! Yeah!
This is just like my favorite ride at the Ponyville Fair:
The TERRORIZER!
This is messing up my mane...
and I don't care!
Wee-hoo!
Yipee!
Faster!
Isn't this fun?
WOAH!
Agh!
(IMPACT NOISES)
Ow!
We're finally home!
(ALARM CLOCK RINGING) My hoofness!
11 minutes late to open the shop!
PINKIE PIE: Nope, nope, nope--
did the portal warp all my keys?
Somepony go around back and check the gate?
Hey wait a minute. What is this?
Saladbowl... Junction?
W-what happened to Sugarcube Corner?
It's a... healthy food restaurant now?
They... don't even have dessert options?!
Something fishy is going on.
We better do some investi--
- Yes? - --gating.
No, no, I heard you,
I just don't think the deal is worth signing.
Sure, the perks are nice- oh hang on, I gotta split.
I've got another call.
Delores! My dear, it's been ages!
How are Enid and Josiah holding up?
(GIGGLING)
He's as batty as a cave!
(CHATTER)
Yeah things are not normal here!

Welcome to Saladbowl Junction,
what can I get tossin' for ya?
Our Salad special today is called Sprout Sprout
Let It All Out!
(BURPING)
This is my shop!
- WE SELL CUPCAKES! - No, cupcake,
this here is my shop...
and we sell salads.
(MANE 6 GASP)
(LAUGHING)
I'm just kidding. Chill, chill.
I'm sorry, you ponies looked so mad!
Please sit down. Zen out.
We don't know what you're talking about.
- We want answers! - Yeah!
I'm Lightning Chill
and these are my friends: Echo...Echo...
and Sugar Snap.
We have all kinds of answers.
Goodness, look at your style!
Aren't you three just a walk on the wild side!
Are we wild? I've seen wilder!
So, what's going on? What can we do you for?
Tell us everything and maybe we can help!
We're helpers.
Okay, well you might want to sit down,
it's a looong story.
It all started when--
Well, that was quite a pony tale!
If you're looking for a portal, we'll help you look.
But first,
you gotta try one of our salads.
This is actually pretty good!
Try some, Pinkie!
I can't! It's just too salad-y!
Pinkie! That's your mixing bowl!
It wants you to try the salad!
I think.
I can't believe it. It's... delicious!
Whoa!
Aagghh! (IMPACT NOISES)
Hey-- we're home! I think?
Okay, ha!
(EXCITED LAUGHTER)
Huh?
Whoaa. I guess the portal wanted us
take a walk on the mild side.
Come on-- salad cupcakes for everypony!
