Transcript
Narrator: "Mr. and Mrs. Cake are very fast unicorns, who love to have races as they take passengers back and forth from the mainland."

Mrs. Cake: (Giggles) "It looks like I'm going to win today!"

Mr. Cake: "Oh, we'll see about that!"

Narrator: "But then there was trouble."

Mrs. Cake: "Oh no!"

(Mrs. Cake quickly brakes and comes to a stop)

Mrs. Cake: "Phew!"

Mr. Cake: "Whoa! Nice emergency braking, Cup Cake!"

Rarity: "Sorry. I would have pulled out of the way, but I've gotten injured. I can't move."

Mrs. Cake: "That's nothing to be sorry about, Rarity. Everyone gets hurt sometimes."

Passenger #1: "What's the holdup?"

Passenger #2: "Why have we stalled?"

Passenger #3: "I'm already behind schedule."

Rarity: "Before you go, Mrs. Cake, um... perhaps you could just push me onto that siding up ahead?"

Mrs. Cake: "Um... don't worry, Rarity. I can switch paths to get past you."

Rarity: "But just a quick push."

Mrs. Cake: "Oh, no, no, it's fine. I've already done it."

Rarity: "But... but... I...."

Narrator: "It wasn't very long before Mrs. Cake came back again."

Rarity: "Oh. Hi, Mrs. Cake. Wait. Where are your buffaloes?"

Mrs. Cake: (Giggles) "I don't need any buffaloes. I'm taking you to the hospital. You didn't think I was going to leave you here stranded, did you?"

Rarity: (Gasps)

Mrs. Cake: (Giggles) "Is that who I think it is, Rarity?"

Rarity: "It's Mr. Cake!"

Mr. Cake: "Afternoon, ladies." (Laughs) "It looks like I'm gonna win again, Cup Cake."

Mrs. Cake: (Laughs) "The race is on!"

Rarity: "Wow, Mrs. Cake! This is fast!"

Mrs. Cake: "Fast? This isn't fast! But, well, you a bit heavier than my buffaloes."

Rarity: "Ugh! Heavier?"

Mrs. Cake: "No offense, Rarity, but you are a great big unicorn, like me!"

(Laughs) "We've got him! He's stopping."

(Laughs) "Too bad, Carrot Cake!"

Narrator: "It wasn't long before fast, strong Mrs. Cake had arrived at the hospital with poor injured Rarity. Rarity was very impressed by Mrs. Cake."

Rarity: (Giggles) "That was great, Mrs. Cake! You're amazing."

Mrs. Cake: "Amazing? Not really. Just born for speed, that's all."

Rarity: "She's so fast, Crescent Moon, it was incredible! She must be the best unicorn ever!"

Crescent Moon: "Honestly, Rarity, being fast isn't everything.

Rarity: "I know, but Mrs. Cake looks amazing too. Her shape is so sleek and smooth."

Crescent Moon: "That's just the pony baker design. Underneath all that, Mrs. Cake's just a pony like the rest of us."

Rarity: "Can't the doctors do anything to change my shape, Crescent Moon?"

Crescent Moon: "Why would you want to do that? You're a great pony, Rarity, just the way you are."

Narrator: "A few days later, Rarity was back at work on the main path again."

Mrs. Cake: "Hello, Rarity!"

Rarity: "Hi, Mrs. Cake."

Mrs. Cake: "Wow, you look as good as new. Did you get new fur?"

Rarity: "Just a touch-up. But no matter what they do, I'll never be as amazing as you."

Mrs. Cake: "What nonsense! You're a brilliant unicorn. And you get to pull all sorts of loads, whereas I almost always pull passengers. I wouldn't mind a bit more variety from time to time. Take care now."

Spike: "Hello, Rarity. Rarity? What's the matter?"

Rarity: (Sighs) "Mrs. Cake is better than me at everything."

Spike: "Everything? She can't be better than you at everything."

Rarity: "But she is, Spike. She really, really is."

Applejack: "Don't be silly, Rarity. Be proud of yourself. Lift your hat high and say, 'I'm a very special pony, and there's no other like me!'."

Rarity: "But I don't have a hat. And Mrs. Cake is better than me at everything."

Narrator: "The other animals knew Rarity was unhappy. But they didn't know how to cheer her up again."

Pipsqueak: "Oh! Would you like to delivery the mail for me, Rarity? That's a fun job."

Rarity: "No, thanks, Pipsqueak."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I know! You can be my back animal tomorrow. I'm heading up the coast to the Ponyville Beach."

Big Macintosh: (Laughs) "Of course, Cranky! Everybody wants to be your back animal."

Rarity: (Sighs)

Narrator: "Then, one day, Rarity had to make a delivery to the castle."

Mrs. Cake: "Hello, Rarity."

Rarity: "Mrs. Cake! Have you gotten hurt?"

Mrs. Cake: "No, but my driver thought he heard a strange sound, so he's just checking me over."

(Giggles) "Looks like you're going to be me back down the hill."

Narrator: "Rarity headed back down the steep hill again. But then there was trouble."

Mrs. Cake: "Help! Help! My hooves! My hooves have failed! Help! Look out, Rarity!"

Rarity: (Gasps)

Mrs. Cake: "I can't stop!"

(Mrs. Cake bumps into the back of Rarity)

Rarity: (Gasps) "I have to slow her down!"

(Rarity tries to stop Mrs. Cake, as they race down the hill)

Rarity: "Don't worry, Mrs. Cake! I've got you!" (Grunting)

(Rarity manages to bring Mrs. Cake to a stop)

Mrs. Cake: "Oh! Oh, Rarity! You're my hero!"

(Rarity smiles)

Narrator: "This time, it was Mrs. Cake who had to be taken to the hospital. And Rarity was very happy to be the pony who could take her there."

Mrs. Cake: "Ugh, this is why I don't do pushing. It always messes up my skirt."

Rarity: "Is that why you didn't push me onto the siding? Because of your skirt!"

Mrs. Cake: "Yes. Sorry about that. I wish I had good front hooves like you. You were amazing today, Rarity. What a brave unicorn you are."

Rarity: "Everybody breaks down sometimes, Mrs. Cake."

Mrs. Cake: "I'm so lucky to have a friend like you. Thanks for helping me."

Rarity: "And I'm lucky to have a friend like you, too."

Rarity and Mrs. Cake: (Laugh)
