Three, two, one…
Happy New Moon!
These snacks are stellar, Pinkie!
You be careful now.
That thing looks like it's about…
Watch out!
Magnifique!
Wow, Twilight.
You are always here when we need you.
And tonight, I'm here with my latest creation:
the celestiascope!
It's a portable planetarium.
I like to use it to study the stars and unlock secrets of the cosmos!
Plus, it's pretty!
This is so exciting!
I don't even know how I'll sleep tonight!
So, who wants an astronomy lesson?
It's okay.
Now I can dig into doing a deep scan of the skies!
That's not right.
Nothing ever shines in that area.
It's just a void.
It's probably nothing, Twilight.
It's really there!
And it's headed straight for Ponyville!
Equestria to Twilight!
Come in, Twilight!
I know what will wake her up.
Pancakes!
Heavy on the marmalade!
The impact of flavors will leave a citrusy crater in her mouth!
Impact!
Crator!
What is it?
What is what?
Nothing!
Gotta study.
No time to sleep. Just study!
Sleep!
Study!
What's gotten into her?
Not pancakes.
There's gotta be something here on strange pink lights in the sky.
Now, where's the "Impending doom/ Ponyville historical record" section?
Why are you all here?
It's a library.
We came to check out books.
And check on you.
It was great seeing you all,
but I've to get back to work!
Are you sure you don't need help investigating something?
If there's a mystery afoot,
I'm your mare.
I lead the library's Dashing Dame Detective story hour twice a week.
Thrice, if they'll have me.
They haven't yet.
No!
This is really something I should do on my own.
No!
Don't read!..
"The End of Equestria…
Volume Sixteen"?
…that.
I know, right?
I always thought there's only fifteen volumes!
No pancakes at breakfast?
Refusing time with your friends?
"The End of Equestria"?
Yeah, we all know something's up.
It's true.
Something is up.
In the sky!
Last night, while viewing the star tracks on the celestiescope,
I saw something I couldn't explain.
Why couldn't you just tell us?
I didn't want to worry anypony.
But it's a lot harder than I thought to take this all alone.
I should have told you.
You can always tell us.
Our friendship speaks volumes.
Yeah!
Sixteen of them!
Well, we better get to reading.
There it is!
That's the strange pink light!
When the new moon wanes on the eve of Indigo Summer —
that's a once in a lifetime event —
the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet will return.
Fear not its mysterious radiance,
as it will bring pure joy!
Before it arrives,
a current of sugary crystal morsels will flow by?!
The sky will become a pastel multi-color light show!
And, it's traditional to celebrate its passing
by throwing a festival.
So everypony who witnesses the Comet,
will have one special wish come true.
Twilight, you've made an amazing discovery!
We made this discovery together.
There's truly no greater problem-solving power
than friendship.
Peter Pony picked a pack of perfect peonies.
A pack of perfect peonies Peter Pony picked.
Are we filming?
Get my good side.
They're all my good sides!
Now, whatever are you up to, Flutterloves?
Hi, Rarity.
After the success of my YouHoof unboxing video,
I wanna follow in your hoofsteps
and be a reporter!
And I have just the story —
The Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet!
Stupendous.
But this is just a topic.
You still need a way in.
An entrée point.
I know!
Interview all of us!
Ask us what we think about the Comet.
Be a real pony on the scene.
I don't like the sound of that.
I love it!
I'm here with athlete extraordinaire, Rainbow Dash.
What do you think about the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet?
It will be cool!
So, Twilight.
It was you that discovered the Comet?
Hello?
She is speechless.
I'm more focused on growing season.
Comets don't grow on trees,
but apples do.
And they need 'tending to.
Comets are out of this world,
but what's in this world
is my new one-pony show
"Fiddler on the hoof"!
I play a musician,
who is afraid of heights,
but I wind up on this roof…
And I…
Hopefully, good old Pinkie Pie gives me some A+ material.
Pinkie Pie,
the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet is coming.
Tell the world what you think about it!
I was nervoucited —
which is a mixture of "nervous" and "excited" —
but now I'm strebebelief!
That's "stressed beyond belief"!
Go on.
I love you, Fluttershy, but I don't have time!
A current carrying Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet crystals will fly over Equestria tonight!
These crystals are an incredibly rare baking ingredient.
I went back to the library and discovered:
the last time the Comet appeared, only one tiny blob of crystals was captured,
and they were immediately used to make the most delicious dessert in Ponyville history!
I need those crystals!
They'll take my treats to new extremes!
This is just kind of the interview I need.
Let's get those crystals!
I would,
but I worry my crystal capturing contraption isn't gonna cut it.
Maybe I can help you,
and you can help me.
Tell me, what do you think it'd be like to get caught in a current of cotton candy crystals?
What?
I told you, I don't have time for…
The crystals are coming!
I'm gonna get to the top of Mt. Volcanope to get as close as possible!
It's not strong enough!
And I'm not close enough!
If only I was in the crystal current!
But how could I be in the?..
Fluttershy!
I need you!
These crystals sure do sparkle like a mane that just got washed.
And it's now that I'd cut away to an interview about what makes the crystals so special.
But sadly, this pony was unable to…
Flutter...
need...
to talk!
No.
I need to talk to you, Pinkie.
I let the pressure to get the perfect interview get in the way of being a good friend.
I'm sorry.
No, I need to apologize.
Those cotton candy crystals clouded my judgment,
and I didn't stop to really listen to you.
I'm sorry.
There'll be time for hugs later!
I know a way I can get my crystals and you can really be a reporter pony on the scene
if we work together.
You ready?
Fluttershy, grow!
The treats I'll bake with these!
Oh, the amazing news I'll report!
And if it weren't for the help of a great reporter
and even greater friend,
today would've been a bust.
No day is a bust when friends work together.
And that is the story of the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet,
the crystal current, and the capturing contraption.
Back to you, Karen.
That was our new pony on the scene —
Fluttershy!
In other news – pasta.
What is it?
