Rarity is trapped in a closet with Applejack. A closet full of smelly janitor tools. How could things get any worse?

It was quite simple. Go into the closet, grab the broom, close the closet door, and bring it to Rarity. It was simple instructions. A foal could do it! But Applejack messed it up. Instead of the simple instructions Rarity clearly laid out for her, there was a different path. Applejack went into the closet. That was okay. But then Applejack claimed she couldn't find the broom. So Rarity went into the closet with her, forgetting to hold the door open (Applejack held it open with one of her back hooves). The door closed and locked. Now, Rarity is stuck in a closet with Applejack and a bunch of smelly tools. Could life at this moment get any worse?

Why Can't Applejack Follow Instructions?

They were simple instructions. So simple, in fact, a foal could perform them. Applejack simply needed to go into the closet, fetch me the broom, and leave. The broom was RIGHT THERE! As soon as the metal door closed and locked with a bang, Applejack found the broom. Figures. Now, me (Rarity), Applejack, and a bunch of smelly janitor tools are all locked in a closet with no exit! I couldn't see how this could POSSIBLY be FUN, but Applejack was determined to find a way.

"We could play dollies? With brooms?" Applejack grabbed two brooms and held them up, making them talk and walk. I laughed at her ridiculousness. But isn't it obvious I'm much too mature to play with dolls? Seriously, Applejack. And knowing Applejack, a tomboy who works all day, she wouldn't really enjoy dolls either.

"Applejack, you know we both loathe to play dolls. It was a bit fun when I was just a filly. I would play fashion show with my two dolls, Dolly and Dollie." I said, smiling to myself. In my mind, I remembered the beautiful gowns of my own design I would dress Dolly and Dollie in. Applejack giggled. Of course Applejack would find things that bring me joy funny. That's just what she does. And believe me, she's the reason I hate dolls. Because she ruined it for me when we were growing up, telling me it was childish and not worthwhile. What does a farmer know about dolls?

"Well, ah know ah ruined your fun, Rares. Ah was just tellin' ya how to grow up. Ah didn't mean ya had to at that moment in time..."
