Transcript
Narrator: "It was a bright, sunny day in Ponyville. Applejack the Earth Pony was repairing the embankment on the main road."

Applejack: "Nothing gets my hooves pumping like digging a nice, fresh hole."

Narrator: "The only thing Applejack liked more than digging holes was telling the animals all the things she dug up from holes. Unfortunately, the other animals didn't always want to stop and listen to Applejack's stories."

Applejack: "Ah, good morning, Pipsqueak! Did I tell you about the time I dug up a whole hoard of roman coins?"

Pipsqueak: Uh, I think you have, Applejack. Sorry. I've got changelings to deliver. Bye."

Chief Thunderhooves: "Express buffaloes coming through!"

Workman #1: "Look out!"

Workman #2: "Stop!"

Workman #3: "Hey! Stop!"

Chief Thunderhooves: "Ohh!"

(Chief Thunderhooves stops just in time)

Chief Thunderhooves: "Watch where you're swinging that shovel of yours!"

Applejack: "Chief Thunderhooves, let me tell the story of the time I unearthed the fossil of a woolly mammoth."

Chief Thunderhooves: "Not today, thank you. The express waits for no story."

Applejack: "No appreciation for good old-fashioned dirt, that buffalo."

Narrator: "Applejack had nearly finishing repairing the embankment when Spike arrived. And he loved hearing Applejack's stories."

Applejack: "Spike!"

Spike: "Hello, Applejack! You never finished telling me about the time you dug up that treasure chest."

Applejack: "Oh, yes. It was a few years ago, in a very interesting area of gravel, and all the sudden, I dug up some pirate treasure."

Spike: "Wow!"

Applejack: "There were rubies and emeralds and giant diamond as big as your..." (Hits something in the ground)

"Ooh! Goodness gracious me! I found something! Do you know what this is, Spike?"

Spike: "It looks like... a water pipe?"

Applejack: (Laughs) "A pipe? Nonsense! This is a mast from a viking longship!"

Spike: "I'm pretty sure it's a pipe. Anyway, I'll see you later, Applejack. I've got to go."

Applejack: "Yes, yes. I'm quite sure of it. Oh, marvelous mud! What a discovery!"

(Pipe breaks)

Applejack: "Oh, ahem. It is a water pipe. Nothing a good shovelful of mud can't fix."

Narrator: "The next day, Spike was approaching the embankment again when he spotted something worrying."

Spike: "Bust my hands! Applejack must have broken that water pipe, and now it's leaking. That could be dangerous."

Applejack: "Now, Snips and Snails, who wants to play a game of "Guess what's in my shovel". Come on. See if you can guess."

Snips: "Oh, that's a tough one. Let me think. Is it a bunch of bananas?"

Applejack: "Wrong! Guess again."

Snails: "Is it a flock of sheep?"

Applejack: "No! Last try."

Snips and Snails: "Is it mud?"

Applejack: "You're right! Marvelous mud!"

Snips: "This game never gets old, does it?"

Spike: "Applejack! You did dig up a water pipe yesterday, and I think it's leaking!"

Applejack: "Nonsense, Spike! I told you it was, uh... just some more pirate treasure. It's, um, quite common in Ponyville."

Spike: "I thought you said it was a viking longship."

Applejack: "Did I? Are you sure? Oh! Look at this lovely thick clay. It's quite extraordinary..."

Spike: "Applejack, you must come!"

Applejack: "All right, Spike. If you insist."

(Gasps) "Ohh!"

Spike: "Come on, Applejack. Hurry! We've got to get there quickly. Applejack?"

Applejack: "Marvelous mud! Look at the lovely dirt along here, Spike."

Spike: "If that pipe keeps leaking, it'll close the main road!"

Applejack: "Alright, alright. I'm coming.

It's perfectly fine. I told you there was nothing to worry about, Spike. See?"

Spike: "I'm sure I saw water."

Applejack: "Never mind, Spike. Come back to the clay pits. Have I ever shown you my rock collection?"

(The dirt around the pipe starts to break)

Applejack: "Bouncing boulders!"

Spike: "Look out!"

(Mud falls onto the path)

Applejack: "Oh dear! It was a water pipe I found. What a mess, Spike. I'm sorry. What shall we do?"

Spike: "You need to clear the path while I warn the other animals."

Applejack: "Righto!"

Narrator: "Legs pumping and shovel digging, Applejack worked harder than ever."

Spike: "I hope Applejack gets the path cleared before any... oh no!"

Chief Thunderhooves: "Express buffaloes coming through!"

(Applejack sees Chief Thunderhooves coming)

Applejack: (Grunting)

Chief Thunderhooves: "Out of the way!"

Applejack: "Fore!"

(Applejack kicks the boulder out of the way)

Spike: "Applejack, you did it!"

Applejack: "Did I ever tell you about the time a purple baby dragon dug a silly earth pony out of a deep whole?"

Spike: "No, I don't think you have... oh, wait a second! I get it! You mean me!"

Applejack: "Thank you for your help today. Next time I dig up a water pipe, I'll tell someone."

Narrator: "And so Spike walked back to his station, and Applejack puffed back to the clay pits. She was feeling very tired after her adventure."

Snails: "Hello, Applejack. Fancy a game of "Guess what's in my shovel"?"

Applejack: "Oh, I don't know."

Snips: "Come on. I'll go first. Is it a bucket of fish?"

Applejack: "Nope! Guess again."

Snips: "Is it a big wobbly jelly?"

Applejack: "No, last try."

Snips and Snails: "Is it mud?"

Applejack: "Nope. It's a chest of pirate treasure!"

Snips and Snails: "It is?"

Applejack: "No, not really. It's mud!"

Applejack, Snips and Snails: (Laugh)

Snips: "Nice one, Applejack!"

Snails: "Good one!"
