What to wear, what to wear?
What to wear?!
Scoot your boot Applebloom. It's not like it is Harvest Day Parade.
We're just going at the train station.
Too casual.
Too summery.
Your cousine isn't gonna care, what you're wearing.
Just pick something!
This is my first time meeting her.
And she's from Manehatten!
I wanna make a good impression!
You know what would make a good impression?
What?!
Being on time to pick her up!
You've got nothing to worry about, sugarcube.
Ya'll are gonna get along great.
You already have something in common.
Oh, yes? What's that?
Neither of you have your cutie-mark.
What?!
How could you forget tell me something like that?!
Well, I…
Oh, this changes everything!
Meet you at the train station!
I'm gonna go tell Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo!
You know, your cousine is supposed to sleep in here?
You really think she'll wanna join?
She doesn't have a cutie-mark.
Of course, she'll wanna join the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
I'm just so excited, I can burst.
Is that the train from Manehatten?
Yep.
That's her!
Oh, wait, no, no, that's not her.
Oh, no, that, that's her!
No…
Oh, wait, that… that's not her either.
Applebloom, you've never met Babs Seed, remember?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's her!
Babs! Babs! It's me, your cousine Applebloom.
And this is Sweetie Belle, and this is Scootaloo,
and we are so, so, so glad that you are here!
Thanks, I'm happy to…
This is gonna be the best week of your life!
Sure, I hope it's gonna be…
Seriously, we are gonna have a blast!
The Summer Harvest Parade is going on while you're here.
We get to ride in a float.
Really? I've never been on a float before.
And we're gonna really make surprise for you.
A surprise?..
I give you…
The Cutie Mark Crusaders clubhouse!
The Cutie Mark Crusaders?
A club devoted to helping ponies get their cutie marks!
We're its founding members.
Technically, we're its only members.
But we're always looking to expand and you seem like a perfect candidate.
I do?
Well, yeah, since you don't have a cutie-mark and all.
Oh, yeah. That.
Allow me to show you just some of the highlights of our clubhouse,
should you choose to join us.
This is where we do our roll call.
This is where we eat our lunch.
Sometimes we stand here and think of great ideas.
Could you excuse us for a moment?
Sure.
Thought she'd be more impressed.
She's from Manehatten.
If we wanna impress her, we need to really wow her!
The float!
She can ride with us on our Summer Harvest Parade float!
That's perfect!
This really is the great spot for thinking up great ideas.
Here it is!
The official Cutie Mark Crusaders float for the Summer Harvest Parade!
As member of the Cutie Mark Crusaders you'll be able to ride on it with us.
It'll be totally fun!
More like funny…
looking!
What is that thing? A giant orange?
It's a pumpkin!
More like a lame-kin!
Who's the new blank flank?
She's mah cousin, Babs.
She's from Mane-hatten!
Manehatten, huh?
Well, I guess you have that going for you.
Suppose you're gonna join their little club?
What's it called?
"The Cutie Mark Crusaders"?
More like the "cutie mark crybabies"!
Hey!
Big city attitude!
I like it!
Oh yeah? Well there's more where that came from!
Check this out!
Oh no she didn't!
Looks like somepony's pumpkin just got squashed!
When ah tell Applejack…
You gonna tell Applejack what?
Wa… Well… Y'know…
What're you, a snitch?
Come on, Babs, you should hang with us!
You know, the cool ponies,
not these babies!
What… just happened?
I think Babs just went to the dark side.
We have to tell Applejack!
No! We're not snitches!
Yeah, and we're not babies!
Then… why do I feel like crying?
I still can't believe she ruined our pumpkin float.
I still can't believe I'm related to such a big stinkin' bully!
What are we gonna do?
We're gonna build a new float,
that's what!
Why bother?
She'll probably just ruin that one, too.
We could always tell Applejack.
What are you, a snitch?
NO!
We're not gonna be a bunch of tattle-tales!
Besides, she's only here a couple of weeks…
we'll just avoid her like the plague until she goes home.
Avoid her…
yeah, how hard can that be?
First we thought that Babs was so really really sweet
A new friend to have and it seemed like such a treat
But then we found the truth, she's just a bully from the east
She went from bad, yeah, to a bully and a beast
Everywhere we turn she's just a step ahead
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, what we gonna do?
Got a bully on our tail
Gotta hide, we gotta bail
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, if she's after you
Gotta run, we gotta flee
Gotta hurry don't you see?
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad seed
Hiding from a bully, we know it isn't right
But the Cutie Mark Crusaders we aren't looking for a fight
Oh, she'll go home soon and then we'll have some peace again
But for now we're staying out of her way 'til then
Everywhere we turn she's just a step ahead
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, what we gonna do?
Got a bully on our tail
Gotta hide, we gotta bail
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, if she's after you
Gotta run, we gotta flee
Gotta hurry don't you see?
Why so mean? Why so crude?
Why so angry? Why so rude?
Can't you be nice? Can't we be friends?
Isn't it sad this is how it all ends?
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad
Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad seed
They may have run us out of town,
but at least we still have the club…
Hey! What are you doing at my clubhouse?
Your clubhouse?!
This is our clubhouse!
Well, it was yours and now it's mine.
And mine.
That's not fair, Babs! We never did anything to you!
And let's keep it that way.
Now, scram, crybabies!
Bump, bump, sugar-lump, rump!
That Babs has really gone too far this time.
Kicked out of our own clubhouse!
And my own bed!
Seriously?
Super-seriously.
We need to talk to Applejack.
NO!
Rarity?
NO!
Twilight?
No, no, no!
We need to fight back!
Yeah! Fight back!
How are we gonna do that?
By makin' her the guest of honor at the summer harvest parade!
Yeah!
Wait, what?
When you'll look up "embarrassed" in the dictionary…
Her face will be there!
Are those from the Carousel Boutique?
Yup!
Excellent.
Luster dust from Sugar Cube Corner.
They use it for decorating cakes.
That must be what Rarity uses on her emergency edible boots!
Here's the bands for the moving mechanism…
tools and stuff.
Did you bring the thing
from the place?
What's that?
Granny Smith's kitchen timer.
What's that for?
You'll see.
Come on, ya'll. Let's get to.
We only got a few hours before mornin',
and this thing has to look so good that,
Babs won't be able to resist wanting to ride it!
Is this it?
I think…
We're go.
Good, 'cause we'd better get out of here before Babs finds us.
Cutie Mark Crusaders —
GO!
Hot carrot fritters!
Get 'em here! Get 'em hot!
Isn't it smashing?
No! I didn't mean smashing!
I mean… isn't it a hit?
No! I… no! No hitting! I meant…
But don't even think about riding it, Babs!
You had your chance!
See you later, Cutie Mark Crybabies!
The timer set?
Teach her to fool with the Cutie Mark Crusaders!
Y'all are letting Babs to ride your golden apple float?
Yeah…
We thought she deserved to be the…
center of attention.
Well that's just super sweet of y'all
making Babs feel so special,
you know, after all the heartache she's been havin' at Manehattan.
Heartache?
Well, I didn't say anything 'cause I didn't want her to feel singled out,
but there's been some bullies back in Manehattan
just teasing her to pieces for her blank flank.
T-t-teased?
B-bullies?
Yep. She came up to the farm
to get away from all the problems back home.
I'm so pround, y'all.
You've done a good deed.
So that's why she jumped in when
Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon started giving us a hard time.
She didn't want to be bullied like at home
so she decided to be a bully instead!
And now we've turned into bullies too!
What do we do?!
Nice float, Babs!
Snagged from those whiny-baby blank flanks.
Too cool for a mule, Babs.
We gotta stop that float!
Applejack, quick! You have to…
Quick, you have to help us!
What?
We booby-trapped it!
Babs, bully, payback!
We have no time to explain!
We've just gotta get Babs out of that float!
Sorry
'Scuse me!
'Scuse me…
Pinkie Pie! Let us in!
Funny joke!
No, really!
Let- us- in!
Here!
Babs! You've gotta get out of that float!
You're not getting your float back, crybabies!
But it's booby tra-
Veggie salad!
Veggie salad.
Seriously?
Hey! Don't leave me!
Leaf me, ha ha…
What the…
Babs!
Bad apple sauce!
Maybe we'll get our cutie marks in stupidest ideas of all time.
Are y'all okay?
Yeah, we're fine.
No sweat.
After I'd been so mean to ya…
you saved me!
About that…
I don't get it!
I saw it all happen!
You pushed me out just when the float was about to head into the lake!
Except… we were the reason it was headed into the lake.
We booby trapped the float.
Y'see Babs,
we were trying to get you back for being a big bully.
But then Applejack told us about how you were being bullied back in Manehattan.
And we figured out you were just doing it to avoid getting picked on in Ponyville.
But, by then… we were the ones being bullies.
And… Oh, why does life have to be so ironic!
Guess what we're trying to say is…
We're sorry.
I'm sorry too.
You know, this all could've been avoided if y'all just came to me in the very beginning.
That's what I kept on saying!
So, can we start over?
Definitely.
Yeah.
We, the Cutie Mark Crusaders,
elect Babs Seed to join us as a sister,
friend, confidant, ally, bossom buddy,
gal pal, compadre, chum of chums…
chum of chums…
Well you wrote this?
Oh, yeah…
Homegirl, amigo, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah.
Oh, yes here.
And fellow Cutie Mark Crusader!
You're solemnly sworn in
here this day in witness of your fellow sisters,
friends, confidants,
bossom buddies, compadres…
Congratualtions!
Gotta remeber to revise that…
So you promise you're gonna start a Manehattan branch of Cutie Mark Crusaders, right?
Yeah. And I promise to keep talking to my big sis
about the teasing back home.
Good. And if you have any problems,
we've got your back too. You hear?
So you're leaving, huh?
Great. Now we're stuck here with lame blank-flanks.
That's not how you talk to my friends!
F-friends?
Yeah! You got a problem with that?
Well, what if I do?
What are you gonna do about it?
Tell you mothers about your bad attitudes.
I'm sure gonna miss that "bad seed".
Bad seed?
I thought you all were friends now.
No. See,
first we called her bad seed,
as in actually bad seed,
but now she is bad as in good,
get it?
Yeah,
no.
