Episode 1: Album FrictionView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 1: Album FrictionOctavia is at hers and Vinyl’s house during the night as she is sitting at her desk trying to think of a song to write. She looks at the clock and then she bangs her head on the table in frustration. Vinyl suddenly bursts open the door (with her bass cannon next to her) startling Octavia as she fell off her chair. The earth pony glares at the unicorn who sheepishly smiles. She sets down her equipment on the floor gently with her magic. Octavia found a CD on the floor as she picks it up and it reveals a song by Drake called “hold on, we’re going home”. This surprises her and Vinyl giving Octavia an idea. She goes to their room and picks up her violin and rushes back to the living room telling her marefriend that they could make a cover like this, to which Vinyl agrees. They head outside with the music equipment they need and they start playing the cover. They are suddenly transported to a minecraft dimension while they are still playing. ******** As the song ends. It was revealed to be a music video from Vinyls phone as she and Octavia slow it to Lyra, Bonbon, and Minuette. They are all in ponyville. “Wow! That was amazing!” Exclaimed Lyra in excitement, how do you guys do it? “It wasn’t that easy.” Said Vinyl as she pulls out their CD of their cover. “We had to combine every part of the cover we did, we couldn’t do it at the same time.” Added Octavia. “So, if you two win the contest, they'll make this here into a real song?” Asked Bonbon. “And we’ll meet other celebrities, like Feather Bangs…” Began Octavia. “…Coloratura…” Added Vinyl. “...And Songbird Serenade!” Said the pair sighing with happiness. “Well, I think your Song’s totally gonna win.” Said Minuette as Lyra and Bonbon chattered in agreement. Svengallop appears as he sneaks up towards Vinyl and Octavia as he grabs the Disc away from them. “Scratch! Melody! What is the meaning of this? Music is supposed to be inspiring, not degenerate fantasies! This trash belongs to me now!” Said The stallion in a stern look as he starts to leave. “But Svengallop, you can't take our song!” Exclaimed Vinyl. “Oh, and now you two are giving me sass? That's punishment! Today! Till 5:00!” Growled Svengallop. “But we have to get to the office by 4:00! That's the contest deadline!” Exclaimed Octavia. “Oh, I didn't realize. I'll just give it back to you.” Said The male pony sarcastically before going back to serious. “NOT!” He yelled making Vinyl and Octavia jump as he walked away. The pair looked at each other worried. ******** Vinyl, Octavia, and Svengallop are at the recording studio at the stallions office. It is a mess. “I've got just the thing to keep those doodling hooves of yours busy: cleaning my office.” Said Svengallop as he gives the girls the brooms and leaves. Vinyl throws the brooms aside. “But we're not criminals. All we did was make a music video. And we're getting it back.” She tries to open the door but can't. “Darn it. He locked us in from the outside.” Vinyl and Octavia try to get out via the window, but Svengallop stops them by welding it shut. He snarls while the duo starts sweeping the floors nervously. Vinyl throws the brooms away. “Okay, Plan B. We'll sharpen a bunch of pencils and dig our way out.” Just then, the door opens to show it's Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. “Or I could just pick the lock. “Not that your idea wasn't great.” Said Diamond twirling her tiara and puts it back on. “Diamond Tiara? Silver Spoon? Why are you guys busting us out?” Asked Vinyl looking confused. “Cause we heard about Svengallop confiscating your Album.” Silver replied. “We saw it, and it was amazing.” “You think we're gonna let some power-tripping manager take away your chance to get famous?” Said Diamond. Vinyl and Octavia glanced at each other and then back at the fillies. “For someone who makes fun of the cutie mark crusaders, that is a huge compliment.” Said Vinyl looking impressed as Octavia nodded in agreement. “Let’s move!” The four mares head out the front door of the recording studio. They see Svengallop leave in a carriage. “How are we gonna catch up to him?” Asked Vinyl Looking worried. “It's taken care of.” Replied Silver. A Van pulls over revealing the mane 6 with Applejack Doing the Driving. “Quick! Y’all jump in!” Called AJ as the 4 ponies hopped in. “Svengallop has the album. Follow that carriage!” Exclaimed Vinyl. Applejack, with determination in her eyes, steps on the gas pedal and chases after Svengallop. ******** Svengallop is at his carriage talking with someone on the phone. “I’m headed somewhere for the day. You can let Scratch and Melody out of my office at 5:00, but only if the room is clean.” He is then cut off by a honking horn behind him. It is revealed to be the Van that Applejack is now driving. Both the carriage and the van arrive at the office as Vinyl and Octavia got out of it. “Thanks for the lift.” Said Vinyl. “Just hurry up and get famous!” Said Diamond smiling. Vinyl and Octavia head inside and run up to the mailing window. “This needs to be mailed by four o'clock!” Said Vinyl and Octavia at the same time as someone else. They turn around that the other mare is Svengallop. “What are you doing here?!” All three said looking shocked. The stallion dropped a random CD on the floor. “Is that an album?” Asked Vinyl pointing at. She and Octavia glare at Svengallop. “A what? No! I mean, shouldn't you girls be cleaning my office?” Said the male pony as Vinyl picks the album up with her magic. “It is an album!” Exclaimed Octavia as she and Vinyl read the title. “Countess Coloratura - The Spectacle by Svengallop”. She and Vinyl gasp. “You’re entering the music video contest?” “Look! New commemorative stamps!” Said the stallion Distractingly pointing behind them. When the girls have their backs turned, Svengallop grabs the CD and runs only to trip and fall as Vinyl and Octavia run towards him. “So, that's why you confiscated our Album and put us in your office: to knock us out of the running!” Scolded Vinyl. “Okay, okay, I did it. But I had to. When I heard how great your song was, I knew mine wouldn't stand a chance.” Svengallop Confessed. “But, sir, why is a contest like this so important to you? You're a successful manager. You've got your own carriage.” Said Octavia reasoning with the male pony. “Yes, it's true. I have it all. But it wasn't always this way. When I was your age, I didn't have a lot of friends. But I had music. Music meant the world to me. I wanted to win the contest so I could meet other celebrities and thank them for getting me through a lonely childhood. But I went too far. I'm sorry, girls. You deserve to win, not me.” Sighed Svengallop as he takes his CD and leaves shamefully. Vinyl and Octavia look at each other in disappointment. “I mean, don’t condone what he just did. But I’m glad he confessed.” Said Octavia. Svengallop is on his carriage ready to leave. But The two mares stop him. “Svengallop! Wait!” They called. “Oh, yes. Of course. You'll need my administrator ID to report me to the studio.” Said Svengallop looking sad. “No. We're not reporting anyone. Tavi and I get it. Music has gotten us through some tough times, too.” Said the unicorn. “Like that time when me and Vinyl’s friendship was nearly over. It was a terrible thing that happened to us.” Added Octavia. “And we’re not mad.” Grinned Vinyl. “But we gotta hurry, We only have a minute.” Said Octavia looking at her phone. “I think I can buy you girls a few minutes.” Grinned Svengallop as he walks back at the office as he walks up toward the the mailing window where the lady there pulls the curtain down.” “I’m sorry sir we’re closed.” Said the lady. Svengallop pulls the curtain back up as he began to whisper something in her ear to which the lady agrees. Vinyl and Octavia hoof bump each in victory. ******** Vinyl, Octavia, Svengallop, and celebrities were at a panel at a convention on the stage as the audience started to watch Vinyl and Octavia’s music video. Time had passed and the music was done. Every pony started stomping their hooves while cheering. “I love the Video! Especially when you guys were transported to a minecraft biome.” Said Feather Bangs. “I’ve seen a lot of entries with great sequences, but none with this kind of heart.” Said Coloratura. “Thanks for your support.” Said Vinyl smiling. “You should meet Svengallop, he really wanted to see you all here.” Said Octavia. “Guys, it is an honor. I just never-ah, this is the best day of my-” Said Svengallop as he passes out from the excitement. Vinyl and Octavia Shrug it off. The audience starts gathering around the musical duo talking to them. “Hey Vinyl?” “Yeah?” “Doesn’t this seem familiar?” “Just go with it Octavia.”
Episode 2: Jeers for FilliesView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 2: Jeers for FilliesThe Canterlot High bell rings, signaling the end of the day. Vinyl and Octavia are at their lockers when they hear some of their classmates talking, Revealing Trixie (A unicorn with a pale blue mane and a blue coat), Snips (a Unicorn filly with a dark orange mane and a grayish coat), and Snails (a Unicorn with a golden colored coat and a greenish mane). “I hear the screams are so loud, you can't even hear yourself scream.” Said Snips. “I hear it's so scary, they give you diapers before you go in.” Said Snails. “I hear a deranged clown chases you with barbecue tongs.” Said Trixie before Vinyl and Octavia start approaching them. “What are you guys talking about?” Asked Vinyl curiously. “The Canterlot House of Terror just opened up for the season and we're finally old enough to go.” Said Snails as he pulls out the brochure for it. “Check it out, zombies, vampires, mutants, all waiting to pounce on you the minute you step inside.” Trixie cover the brochure with her hoof to interrupt snails. “Snails, don't bother telling them about it, they'll never go. Everyone knows they're the biggest chickens in our school.” Said Trixie staring at Vinyl and Octavia sinisterly. “Oh yeah?! Then how come we already got tickets to it, Trixie.” Said Vinyl Defensively. “We did?” Asked Octavia before Vinyl nudges her, now nervous. “Oh, right, we did, I totally forgot, because I'm so excited, and not at all terrified.” Octavia gives a nervous chuckle until a book falls over in Vinyl’s locker, startling the two mares to scream and hold on to each other. They realize what they are doing and regain cool postures. “Oh, really? When are you going?” Asked Trixie Smugly. “Uh, tomorrow night.” Answered Vinyl with sweat on her face from being nervous. Trixie looks at Snips and Snails before back at the musical duo. “Cool. Then we'll get our tickets for tomorrow night too. That way, we can all go together.” She chuckles. “Great. Looking forward to it.” Said Octavia feigning excitement. “I'll bet you are.” Said Trixie as she folds the brochure into a paper airplane and throws it at Octavia’s hair as She, Snips, and Snails leave. “Oh man! What did we just do? How are we gonna get through the House of Terror?” Vinyl said freaking out. Octavia grabs onto Vinyl’s Shoulders. “I won't even get up to take a shower at night if my Cello lamp isn't on.” She said as she breathes into a paper bag. “Wait...I Got an idea.” Said Vinyl as she plucks the brochure airplane out of Octavia’s hair. “Maybe we can toughen ourselves up before tomorrow night, so we'll be able to handle the House of Terror, and I know who can help us.” She puts her hoof around Octavia’s neck and the gray mare sighs in relief. ******** At Vinyl and Octavia’s House, it's revealed that they have the mane 6 and Maud Pie with them as Vinyl explains the situation to the group. “So, what do you say? Are you up for scaring the daylights out of us?” Asked Vinyl as they all cheer in response. “Maud, you're the expert. What do you suggest?” Asked Twilight. “I've got a few ideas.” Said Maud as she smiles. Cut to Vinyl and Octavia’s room where Maud knocks on their door. “We're ready, Girls.” She called. “We can do this.” Said Vinyl confidently. “Indeed.” Agreed Octavia. Vinyl and Octavia glance at each other before hoof bumping each other. “Vintavia Scralody!” They cried. Suddenly, the lights in the room go out and a red light illumines in front of them. They gasp glance at each other in fear and Vinyl opens his door, scared, same with Octavia. They step out and the hallway is shown to be dark as well with red lights coming from the walls. “Uh...it doesn't look so bad.” Said Vinyl sheepishly. The duo smile nervously at each other before walking down the hallway. Unbeknownst to them, a huge shadow appears on the wall behind them. As they keep walking, two hooves grab the girls' shoulders. “Thanks for the encouraging pat, buddy.” Said the DJ. “You too.” Replied the Cellist. “That's not me…” They said in unison as they realize they’re not touching each other. The pair look at their hooves before turning around to see a giant hooded figure standing right behind them, Revealing the mane 6 and Maud Pie as they pop their heads and let out a giant “BOO”. Vinyl and Octavia freak out, run right into the walls, and in a daze, pass out on to the floor. The girls take the hood off, and see that this wasn't one of their better ideas. At the living room on the couch, The two girls are now in a blanket, shaking terrified while holding each other in their embrace and Maud approaches them. “This is my fault. I gave you too much fright too soon.” Said Maud looking guilty. “It's okay.” Said Vinyl as her voice started Vibrating. “You meant well.” Said Octavia as her voice also started Vibrating. “We'll dial the scares back a little for round two.” Said Maud as the musical duo nodded their heads. Later, Vinyl and Octavia meet up with Maud, who is on the couch, for the second round. “Ok Maud, we're ready to try again.” Said Vinyl. “What have you got for us?” Asked Octavia. “Actually, I just ordered you two a pizza.” Said Maud as the doorbell rings “Oh, and there it is.” “Pizza? Not afraid of that.” Said Octavia confidently. “Me neither.” Agreed Vinyl. “Puh-puh-puh-pizza!” Chanted the Two mares as they dashed towards the door, They laugh but when Vinyl answers the door, it's actually revealed to be Rainbow Dash in her masked killer costume with a chainsaw. The pair scream, run around, hit their heads on the doorway of the dining room, and fall down; heads spinning. “Huh. Too much?” Said Rainbow as She and Maud look at them while Dash lifts her mask. Cut to the two mares back in their blanket, this time with Rainbow Dash on the couch. “Sorry. I'll dial it back some more.” Said Maud. Later, Vinyl, Octavia, and Maud approach Vinyl and Octavia’s room. “You girls better now?” Asked Maud as The two mares nod their heads."Okay, let's try this again.” She Opens the door and gestures the girls in. The room is shown to be pitch black, and Twilight emerges. “Vinyl. Octavia. I'm glad you're here. I have a bone to pick with you.” Said the alicorn as The pair look at each other confused before Twilight continued. “Or should I say, two-hundred and six bones.” She pushes a button and a giant plastic skeleton drops down. The girls freak out again, run into the doorframe, and are knocked out again. Maud sighs at this. Later, the three mares are outside the basement. “Here's an easy one, all you have to do is go down in the basement.” Ordered Maud. “We can definitely do this.” Said Vinyl as Maud opens the door and the girls step up. “Though it sure is dark down there.” The pair quietly go downstairs, until they step on a squeaky stair. They panic, run back up, and slide facedown across the kitchen floor, Octavia sliding right out the kitchen. Maud Sighs again. They are back at Vinyl and Octavia’s room, but there’s a coffin right in front of them. “All you have to do is go in your room and open the coffin.” Said Maud. “Brightly lit empty room. We got this one.” Said Octavia confidently. The duo step inside and approach the coffin. Octavia opens it and to their discover, it appears to be empty. “It’s empty.” Octavia wiped her forehead with her hoof in relief.. “Phew. That wasn't so bad.” Vinyl sighed with relief. “I knew you could do it.” Said maud offscreen. The pair turn around and Maud is right in front of them, causing them to scream and fall back inside the coffin, which collapses on the floor. And it's back to the blanket they go. “Okay, even less scary. Got it.” Maud sighed. Pinkie Pie enters the scene dressed like a wolf and howls, which causes the duo to scream again, having the couch fall backwards. “Pinkie Pie, wrong time to break out your new wolf costume.” Said Maud to her sister. ******** The pair are still wrapped in a blanket, holding each other quivering, and Maud has officially given up as she sighed. Just then, Sunset Shimmer and Flash Sentry walk in. “Hey guys.” Said Sunset in unison with Flash. “What's the word.” Said Flash in unison with Sunset. Maud, Vinyl, and Octavia greet them. “Uh, why are you wrapped in a blanket? And why are you holding on to each other?” Asked Sunset with concern. “Maud has been trying to prepare us to go to the House of Terror tonight.” Vinyl Explained. “We told some classmates we'd meet them there, and we don't wanna look like chickens.” Added Octavia. “Guys, I worked at the House of Terror a few seasons ago, I used to haul people to the first aid tent when they passed out.” Said Flash. “Passed out?” Said Octavia looking shocked. “Yeah, I'd just throw 'em in the wheelbarrow.” Said Flash. “Wheelbarrow.” Repeated Vinyl looking Shocked. “Tell you what, why don't I call and see if any of my friends still work there. I'm sure they'd let us take a tour of the place with all the lights on. Maybe that would help make you less scared.” Flash suggested. “That’d be awesome.” Said the duo looking excited. ******** Vinyl, Octavia, and Flash later arrive at the House of Terror. “This place doesn't look so bad, Octy.” Grinned Vinyl. “Yeah, we got this.” Octavia Agreed as a squirrel scampers next to her and offers a high five. “Why hello there, Mr. Squirrel, hoof bump.” She hoof bumps the squirrel. “Boop.” The squirrel scampers off and Flash puts his hooves on the Girls' shoulders. “You guys ready for the tour?” Said Flash before The two scream once again and collapse to the floor. “We gotta stop doing that.” Said Octavia as she and Vinyl get up from the floor. The three of them walk up to the entrance and Flash winks at them and they nervously wink back. The doors open and Vinyl and Octavia look around. “You can do this, fellas. There's nothing to be afraid of.” Said Flash grinning. They head inside and the two mares look around again. Octavia bumps into Vinyl from behind and a spider web drops down from below them. “SPIDER WEBS!” They shouted as they held onto each other. “Check it. They’re just string.” Said Flash as he pulls them back up. “Huh.” Said the two mares as they continued walking. They continue on and three papier-mâché bats drop down with its wings flapping in front of the two mares, startling them. “They're just papier-mâché.” Said Flash as They continue again, Vinyl and Octavia are still nervous. Flash holds a trucker's head over his face. “Styrofoam.” Blood oozes from the wall. “Food coloring.” A mummy. “Toilet paper.” The pegasus pulls some off and goes in the bathroom, and the mummy statue is revealed to be quite handsome. A pile of guts lands at the girls’ legs, and Flash shows them the bucket it came from. “Yogurt with fruit mixed in.” He tastes it, and Vinyl and Octavia look at each other and are looking better. They walk past a broken piano. “See? It's all special effects.” “I guess you're right.” Vinyl admitted, Suddenly, smoke shoots out from the piano and a deranged clown with barbecue tongs drops down, causing the two mares to scream in terror. “That's not!” She Exclaimed. The clown takes of her masks, revealing Ms. Harshwhinny, an earth pony with a light gold mane and an orange coat. “No, it's just Ms. Harshwhinny, my old history teacher. Hey, Mrs. H.” Flash Greeted her. “Flash, what a nice surprise. What brings you back to Canterlot?” Asked the teacher. “Just giving my friends a tour.” Replied Flash. “Hello.” Said the orange mare greeting Vinyl and Octavia. “Hello.” The pair greeted back as the three walk off. They continue down the hall, when suddenly a zombie comes snarling out from a dark room, Vinyl and Octavia freak out again. “Relax, that's just Spitfire, the wonderbolts leader, she likes jobs where she can be tough on her students.” Said Flash as Spitfire takes the head off, blows her whistle, and gestures for the duo to pass. “Oh, thank you ma’am.” Said Octavia as they walk off once again. They continue, and finally, Flash moves a curtain aside revealing another door that reads 'BAIL OUT'. "And finally, this is what we in the haunted house biz call a 'bail out' door.” Said Flash as he opens the door revealing sunshine, Vinyl and Octavia step out. “Things get too scary tonight, you can just run outside here.” “Thanks Flash, but I don't think we'll need it.” Said Vinyl confidently. “Yeah, this place is just special effects and friendly town folk. It's not scary at all.” Octavia Agreed. “You really saved our flanks, Flash. Can we treat you to a thank you Cupcake from Sugarcube corners?” Vinyl Requested. “Oh-ho, you bet.” Said Flash as Vinyl and Octavia wink at him. ******** Later that night, Vinyl and Octavia return to the House of Terror with confident looks on their faces. “We totally got this, Tavi.” “Totally.” The squirrel from before scampers next to Vinyl and offers a high five. “Awww. An encouraging squirrel high five.” She hoof bumps the squirrel. “Boop.” Said Vinyl. The two mares are about ready to head inside but to their surprise, the staff is walking out with some of their belongings. They stop Ms. Harshwhinny. “Ms. Harshwhinny?” Said Vinyl with an eyebrow raised. “Aren't you supposed to be inside getting ready to scare people?” Questioned Octavia. “Not anymore. Management just let the entire staff go.” The teacher explained. “What, Why?” Asked Vinyl. “Word got back to them that you kids took a tour today and didn't find the place very scary.” Said Harshwhinny as Vinyl and Octavia look at each other and grow nervous to hear that. “So, they decided to do a complete overhaul. Apparently, it's a hundred times scarier now.” “It's scarier?! And we got everyone fired?!” Exclaimed Octavia as She and Vinyl are freaked out. “This is a double bagger.” She said as Starts hyperventilating into two brown bags. “Hehe, Don't worry about me, honey. This gives me more time to work on my…” Ms. Harshwhinny started singing. “One woman shoooooowwwwww~!” She Smiles and Leaves. “What are we going to do? We'll never get through this!" Exclaimed Octavia as she continues hyperventilating into the bags. “Maybe we can get out of here before Trixie shows up.” Said Vinyl putting a hoof around her marefriends shoulder. “What up, Girls?” Said Trixie off screen. “Darn it.” Said Vinyl Deadpan. Trixie, Snips, and Snails arrive. “You two actually made it? I didn't think you would” Said Trixie as she and her cronies casually continue towards the house, with Vinyl and Octavia following behind, holding hooves together nervously. The coffin shaped doors open themselves, and Trixie gestures inside. “After you.” Vinyl and Octavia gulp and nervously walk in, Still holding hooves, followed by Trixe, Snips, and Snails. “Sure is dark in here.” Said Vinyl nervously. Evil laughter can be heard followed by two stallions running out of the house screaming. The group continue on and they reach the end of the hallway leading off in two directions. “We'll go this way, you girls go that way. See you chickens at the exit.” Trixie said Smugly before Backing into the corridor with Snips and Snails. Vinyl and Octavia nervously look at each other. They enter their corridor, this time not holding hooves, and are greeted by a huge scarecrow with crows flying out of his mouth, they run off in fear screaming down another hall into a giant mutant with eyes all over and holding a scythe, the mutant swings at them but they run off in a scream, they stop in a dark room to catch their breath, when suddenly they hear “Braaaiiinnns”. The lights come on revealing the pair to be surrounded by zombies, the duo run again, screaming their way through the rest of the house. “We gotta find that bail out door!” Vinyl Exclaimed. “My thoughts exactly.” Octavia Agreed. Cuts to the bail out door, where, not Vinyl and Octavia, but Trixie, Snips, and Snails jump right out of, terrified by the experience. “That was, the scariest experience of my life.” Exclaimed Trixie getting up from the floor, scared. “I need a hug.” Said Snails as Snips gets up and gives him one. “Well, who’s gonna hug me?” Asked Trixie feeling left out. “Bring it in, Trixie.” Said Snips. The three hug each other, quivering. Meanwhile, Vinyl and Octavia are still running through the house, screaming, and eventually make it out, and can now catch their breath in peace. “Oh man, the bail out door was much farther than I thought.” Said Vinyl. “They really, need to work on their, signage.” Octavia agreed. Vinyl sees Trixie, Snips and Snails approaching. “Hey guys, how'd you get out before us?” The DJ asked. “Ooh, well, uh…” Said Trixie Trying to come up with something. “We took the bail out door, that place was way too scary.” Snails confessed before Trixie angrily elbows him for that. “Guess you Two made it all the way through.” Said Snails. Vinyl and Octavia turn around and see that the door they ran out of was the exit, which two other kids run out of in the same manner they did. “Yeah, I guess we did.” Said Vinyl as she and Octavia look at each other, amazed. “Are you gonna rat us out to everyone at school for being chickens?” Asked Trixie nervously. “Nah, that wouldn't be cool.” The DJ answered. “Oh, you two are alright. I'm sorry for messing with you.” Said Trixie with guilt. The two mares glanced at each other before they opened their mouths. “Forget it.” Said Vinyl. “Yeah, We’re good.” Said Octavia. “Hey, you two wanna go to the hay burger for some burgers?” Trixie requested. “Sure.” Said Vinyl. “Fine by me.” Replied Octavia. Trixie, Snips, and Snails head off and Vinyl and Octavia take the time to reflect on what just happened. “Wow, friends with Trixie who would have thunk it? Said Vinyl looking impressed. “Do you think we should tell him we only made it to the end because we couldn't find the bail out door?” Octavia asked. There was a brief pause before the duo could make an answer. “Nah!” They both replied. “That'll be our little secret.” Said Vinyl as she and Octavia hoof bump on it, they start off to catch up with Trixie, but stop when they see their squirrel friend's face inside a crow's beak, which they find adorable. “Ahh, he's wearing a crow costume.” Octavia kneels down to get a better view. “Are you trying to scare us too? You cute little- The squirrel's head falls out of the beak, the pair scream again and run off. Once they're gone, the real squirrel picks up what is revealed to be a fake squirrel head, and high fives with the crow.
Episode 3: Eyes of WoeView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 3: Eyes of WoeVinyl, Octavia, and Quibble are walking to school as they notice Lyra, Frederic, and Minuette and approach them. “Hey guys, ready for Friday Share?” Asked Minuette looking excited. “You know it.” Said Vinyl. “I brought my dream journal to read excerpts from.” Said Octavia. “And I brought my prize piglet.” Said Lyra as age shows them the piglet, they are awed by it. Frederic comes up.. “Yah, I blanked on the assignment 'til like two minutes ago, and grabbed a random take-out menu by the door, so…” Said the pianist. Quibble takes out a picture of himself. “I brought this sweet portrait I commissioned on the boardwalk, really captured my rugged essence.” There was a moment of silence. “Well, can't lie, I'm pretty excited about my Friday Share.” Said Minuette as she takes an egg shaped object out of her backpack, its wind up key starts turning and it plays sweet piano music, the others are awed by it, the music box opens up revealing a dancing elephant, and the others love it even more. Minuette turns it off. “My Granny and I found it at a market, it was broken and rusted shut, but she's a total wizard and helped me fix it.” She stated. “Bet you're really regretting that take-out menu now, huh?” Said Quibble smugly as he nudges Frederic. ******** Later at school, Frederic is sharing his take-out menu. “Feeling bold? Try Giovanni Chang's penne a-la eggroll. Need delivery? it's F, R, E, E, free baby, thank you.” Frederic presented. “Hmm, you get a C for preparedness, but an A for improve. So, a B.” Said Ms. Cheerilee. “Thanks.” Said Frederic as he walks back to his desk. “Alright, Miss Minuette, what do you have to share with us today?” Asked Cheerilee. Minuette grabs her backpack, and looks for her music box, but gasps when she sees that it's not there. “I can't find it.” She said looking worried. “Did everyone forget this assignment?” Said Cheerilee deadpan. “No, I had it on the bus, I swear.” The blue mare exclaimed as she dumps her backpack on the floor. “She did! She did!” Said Vinyl in unison. “She showed us.” Said Lyra in unison. “I saw it.” Said Frederic in unison. “There was this elephant that dances.” Said Octavia in unison. “Okay, okay.” Ms. Cheerilee chuckled. “I believe you, we'll get to you next Friday.” She offered. “But, where did it go?” Minuette Asked herself. ******** At Lunch, at the cafeteria, Minuette can't focus on anything other than her music box. “Hey, Minuette.” Said Quibble trying to get her attention. “Minuette, trade you my delicious cold fish soup for that lame toasted meatball sub.” He offered. “Huh? Sure, whatever.” Minuette said not even paying attention. Stella is about to trade, when Vinyl blows a whistle, actually getting the blue mare’s attention. “As trade commissioner, I have to point out; this is a terrible deal.” Vinyl stated. “Thanks Vinyl. Sorry, I just can't stop thinking about my music box. What could have happened to it?” The unicorn asked. “Uh, I don't wanna be that mare, but maybe the Parasprites took it.” Said Frederic as the rest of the gang gasps in shock. “Don't even joke, man.” Said Quibble nervously. “What are you talking about?” Asked Minuette. Frederic looks around and gestures for everyone to follow him, and the gang sink under the table. Minuette watches her friends do this, and follows them. “It’s a Canterlot legend. it all began one faithful day in ponyville.” Said Frederic mysteriously. Flashbacks to that day. Where the Parasprites where attacking ponyville, destroying their property and their dinners. “Something went badly wrong and they began attacking everything in ponyville.” The pianist narrated. “And a group of Parasprites merged into one giant demon.” The Parasprites eventually turned into a big one. Flashback ends. “The Parasprite.” They all said in shock. “That's when things started going missing.” Vinyl said mysteriously. “And ponies started hearing strange sounds in the halls.” Said Octavia nervously. “And haven't you noticed the weird smell in the vents, kinda like…” Said Frederic. “Corn chips?” Exclaimed Minuette in Shock. “Yeah-huh, that's the beast.” Answered The pianist. “Has anyone tried to track it down?” Asked the blue mare. “Nuh-uh, it almost swiped my lyre.” Said Lyra. “Well, I'm not giving up my music box, I'm finding the Rat Beast!” Said Minuette with determination in her eyes. “We'll help.” Vinyl offered, though the others act casual. “Come on, Minuette is our friend, we can't let her do this alone.” “You’re right, Vinyl.” Grinned Octavia. “Oh, thanks guys.” Said Minuette looking touched as she Hugs Vinyl and Octavia. “Now let's start gathering some intel.” She said confidently. ******** Minuette is at the Cafeteria talking to Bonbon. “Tell me everything you know.” Said Minuette ready to investigate. “The Parasprite swiped my candy when I Began eating them.” Said Bonbon. She then is talking to Golden Harvest. “Yeah, I heard that thing in the band room. It stole my carrots.” Said Golden. She then is talking to Derpy. “One time when Cranky Doodle Donkey was chewing me out, I saw two of its eyes in the air vent.” Said Derpy. Minuette writes it down in her notepad with her magic. “Thanks Derpy.” She said as the bell rings and Derpy flies off. “Great, there's lunch hour. Let's go check out our leads.” She Said to her friends. Lyra and Minuette head off in one direction while Vinyl and Octavia head off the other. Quibble nervously chuckles. “Come on, let's go.” Said Frederic grabbing Quibble by the hoof and drags him off. ******** The gymnasium. A basketball hits the backboard and bounces off the rim of the net, the girl catches it and keeps playing as Lyra and Minuette walk in. “Bonbon had her candy swiped in here.” Said Minuette to Lyra. Before they both look under one of the benches. “Keep your eyes peeled for any sign of the flying beast. Claw marks, squeaking…” Lyra and Minuette sniff around and gasp. “Corn chips!” The two exclaimed looking at each other in shock. They keep sniffing and it leads them to Iron Will’s office. “The smell is coming from here.” Said Minuette. They open the door and find Iron Will dancing to his mixtape. He gets startled when he notices the two. He pauses his mixtape as Lyra and Minuette sheepishly smile. “This is my free period! I can do what I like.” The Minotaur said angrily. “Sorry, Coach.” Said the two. They both shut the door. Once Iron Will sees they're gone, he plays his mixtape and resumes dancing. Lyra and Minuette have their backs leaning against the door. “Guess that smell wasn't the Rat Beast.” Said Lyra before she and Minuette cringe from what they just saw. ******** In the band room, Frederic looks under a tuba, and Quibble approaches him with an acoustic guitar. “Check out this sweet axe.” Commented Quibble. “You don't even know how to play it.” Said Frederic smugly. “Says Who?!” Said Quibble with a stern look on his face. Suddenly the supply closet door creaks, the boys get scared. “The Parasprite!” The earth pony Exclaimed as he and Frederic hide behind some timpani drums, Quibble pushes Frederic with the guitar. “You go!” “No, you!” Argued Frederic. The door slowly begins opening, the boys shake with fear, holding on to each other when suddenly, a janitor comes out. “Glad you boys are here, you can help me scrape gum off the music stands.” He offered But Quibble and Frederic aren’t too happy about this. ******** In the office, Vinyl peeks out from behind the couch, and Octavia peeks out from behind a plant, Matilda is at her desk. “Hmm, paperwork done, Cranky is at the barber. Maybe I can slip away for a latte, and some…” Matilda said as she takes out her hair pin and her hair falls to her shoulders. “…Matilda time.” Matilda walks out of the office as Vinyl and Octavia peek out from behind the door. They then approach near Matilda’s desk. “Okay, Derpy said he saw the Parasprites eyes are in the air vent.” Said Vinyl before Points to said air vent. Octavia starts looking through it. “Hmm, uh, nothing but dust bunnies in here.” She said. Vinyl notices nothing on Matilda’s Desk. “Tavi, look! Chip Crumbs.” She exclaimed. They stumble as the ladder gives away and they both fall to the ground. They look at the crumbs and back away. Just then, Matilda catches them. “What are you girls doing?” Asked Matilda before picking up something. “Oh, you found my lanyard! Can't get my administration discount at the Burnt Bean without it.” She said as she leaves. Vinyl and Octavia look at each other, annoyed. ******** In the hall, Vinyl and Octavia meet up with Lyra and Minuette. “Hey, any luck?” Minuette asked. “Nope.” Replied Vinyl. “Us too.” The blue mare said looking sad. Quibble and Frederic join them. “Us too.” Said Quibble. “Crud! Lunch Hour is almost over and our leads have turned up nothing.” Said Minuette as she checks her watch. “I guess we'd better get to class, we'll get detention if we're caught in the halls after the bell rings.” She looks sad. “Thanks anyway, guys.” “Well, we tried, but I guess the search is officially over.” Said Quibble sighing with relief as he leans to a wall. Suddenly, the sound of the music box is heard in the wall, Quibble falls backward in surprise taking Frederic to the ground with him. “My music box!” Exclaimed the blue Unicorn as she presses her ear against the wall. “It's inside the wall.” “The Parasprite must have it with him.” Exclaimed Octavia. “And he's on the move! Come on!” Ordered Minuette. Minuette, Vinyl, Octavia, and Lyra start running, Frederic gets up and follows, and Quibble gets up, groaning, and joins in. The six follow the music, when suddenly the bell rings. “Dang it.” Said Minuette. “Keep going! It's headed for the basement!” Exclaimed Vinyl as the gang heads for the basement. Minuette sees something and gasps. “DUCK!” She shouted. The gang ducks behind a trashcan, and a hairy shadow approaches. “It’s the parasprite!” Frederic said in fear. The shadow comes closer, revealing who the owner really is. “No, that's just Cranky Doodle Donkey with a new hair piece.” Said Octavia. Cranky admires himself in his hoof held mirror, he's the only thing between the students and the basement. “We need to get to the basement.” Minuette informed. “Frederic, do you have that take-out menu with you?” Vinyl asked. “Yeah, you hungry?” The pianist asked. “I could eat.” Said Quibble. Vinyl takes the menu. “No, I have a plan.” She said as Quibble is bummed that he's not getting food. Vinyl folds the menu into a plane. “Here goes.” Vinyl tosses the plane, and it takes Cranky's wig down the hall, Cranky chases after it, dropping his mirror. “Great throw, Vinyl! Let's go.” Said Minuette. Minuette slides under the chain, Lyra does the same, Frederic crawls, Vinyl climbs over it, and Octavia crawls backwards under it. Quibble is looking at the mirror Cranky dropped. “Is that mirror up for grabs?” He asked. Not looking, Quibble walks right into the chain and falls down the stairs. Minuette opens the basement door and sniffs. “Smell that?” Said the blue unicorn as the others come up behind her. “The Parasprite is down there, and so is my music box, let's do this.” She cracked her neck. Minuette marches down the stairs with her friends behind her. “Honestly, corn chips are ruined for me after this.” Frederic commented. The gang walks through the basement, some more scared than others. “Guys, I just remembered I have a, uh, piano lesson.” Said Quibble being one of the more scared ones. “No you don't, those are on Thursdays.” Snarled Frederic. “Maybe it moved, you don't know.” Said Quibble aggravated. The gang continues, and Minuette sees something. “Look!” The blue mare exclaimed as she points around the corner, there's a large shadow on the wall. “The creature!” Exclaimed Lyra. “LETS GET IT!” Cried Minuette. The gang charges around the corner, Quibble is still afraid. They see the figure and start yelling, the figure gets up and is revealed to be Fluttershy, who is very surprised to see them. “Fluttershy?” They all said as they stopped charging. “Um, what are you doing back here?” The yellow Pegasus asked looking scared. The gang stutter, looking for an excuse. “We're looking for the Parasprite.” Said Minuette. “You know, Big, really cute on the outside...” Began Frederic. “...But evil on the inside.” Ended Octavia. “It's got my music box, we followed the sound of it down here.” Said Minuette. “A parasprite in this school? I can take care of that. You go back upstairs where it's safe, and leave the Parasprite to me.” Said Fluttershy. “Well, that's a very kind offer, we'll take you up on that.” Said Quibble as he attempts to leave. “Sorry Fluttershy, but I can't leave without my music box.” Said Minuette stopping Quibble from leaving. “Alright, let's split up then.” Said Fluttershy as she takes a flashlight out of her backpack and gives it to Minuette. “You take the East wing, I'll take the West.” Fluttershy heads off in that direction, Minuette turns on the flashlight and the gang goes in the other direction. “Should one of us go with Fluttershy? What if the Parasprite corners her?” Asked Octavia as she and Vinyl hold on to each other while walking. “Fluttershy knows animals and creatures better than anyone, there's no way that Parasprite will get the jump on her.” Vinyl replied. Fluttershy is offscreen yelling while trying to fight the creature. The gang runs to help. “We're coming, Fluttershy!” Octavia cried. “Hold on, buddy!” Cried Lyra. Quibble groans and goes after them. They get to the supply closet. They hear grunts and a lot of crashing sounds. “Fluttershy, are you okay?” Asked Minuette as she gives Vinyl the flashlight. “Stay back! This thing is vicious.” Cried Fluttershy as Quibble backs away. “We have to help him.” Vinyl suggested. “Uh…” Said Octavia in unison. “I'm not going in there.” Said Frederic in unison. “No thank you.” Said Lyra in unison. “Well, somepony has to be a hero, this is a job for…” said Quibble as he puffs out his chest and grabs a nearby broom. “QUIBBLE PANTS!” He cried. Quibble charges at the supply closet holding the broom like a spear, only for Fluttershy to open the door, unknowingly smashing Quibble into the wall, the others are happy Fluttershy is okay. Fluttershy closes the door, Quibble is now dazed. “I calmed it down, but you don't want to go in there, it's pretty gruesome.” Said Fluttershy freaked out. “Wow, thank you, Fluttershy.” Said Minuette. “Did it have Minuette’s music box?” Frederic asked. “No, I'm sorry.” Said Fluttershy as Minuette looks at the ground, sad. “But don't worry, if it's down here, I'll find it. In the meantime, let's all go back upstairs.” They all head back, when suddenly, there’s a noise behind them. They all gasp, and Vinyl shines the flashlight in that direction. “What was that?” Asked Minuette looking scared. The shadow of a giant parasprite with glowing green eyes appears at the end of the hall. “The Parasprite!” Exclaimed Quibble. “I thought Fluttershy already got it.” Said Octavia looking scared as she holds Vinyl from behind. Minuette grabs the broom from Quibble. “Give me back my music box you monster!” Shouted the blue mare. Minuette charges at the Parasprite, her friends alongside cheering her on, Fluttershy gasps and runs ahead of them. “WAAAAAIIIIT!” Fluttershy shouted stopping the gang. The Pegasus looks behind her, and from around the corner, comes a small and rather cute Parasprite, with glowing green eyes. “Huh?” The six mares said in confusion. Fluttershy picks up the Parasprite. “I can explain, this little fella is the Parasprite.” She confessed. “Then who were you fighting in the closet?” Asked Frederic with an eyebrow raised. “No one, I was just play-acting so you guys would go away. I didn't want you to find out about Cinnamon here, he and I go way back. He used to live in my cottage.” Said Fluttershy. Flashback to the fateful day, Fluttershy is cleaning up her house, and hanging out with Cinnamon. “Aw, he was great company on.” Fluttershy narrated. “But one faithful night, we were having such a ball, I forgot that I wasn’t supposed to leave him home alone. Flashback ends. “And the next day, I don't know what he got into in there, but he came back out like this. A freak of nature!” Said the yellow Pegasus as Cinnamon gives her a dirty look. “Eh, not to me of course. But I was afraid that Twilight and her friends would wanna take him away to be studied, so I hid him down here in the basement, with a steady supply of his favorite snack; corn chips.” Said Fluttershy, giving Cinnamon a piece. “I've been able to keep him a secret for ten whole years.” “Well, not exactly.” Said Frederic. “He's been stealing stuff all over school.” Said Octavia. “He took my music box from my backpack.” Said Minuette. “Cinnamon Bartholomew! Is this true?” Asked Fluttershy looking unhappy with her companion, to which the parasprite nods in response. He and jumps down from Fluttershy’s hair. He moves a stack of boxes, revealing a hole in the wall full of stolen stuff; Lyra’s Lyre, Golden’s Carrots, Bonbons’s Candy, and… “My music box!” Exclaimed Minuette looking happy. She opens it, and Cinnamon dances with the elephant. Fluttershy is still mad at Cinnamon. “Oh, I can't believe you mister, you are going to have to return everything you've taken, and write apology notes.” She sighs, to Minuette. “I'm sorry about all the trouble, ah, I just wanted to look out for my friend.” “I get that.” Said Minuette as she looks at her own friends. “Same way these guys looked out for me.” Her friends give her an “aww” for gratitude. “So, you think you could maybe keep this a secret?” Asked Fluttershy. The gang looks at each other sure that they can. ******** At lunch the next day, Bonbon is happy to have her Candy back. “Wow, I never thought I'd see these again.” Said Bonbon before she eats them, and looks at the gang, Lyra is playing her lyre. “Did you have to fight the Parasprite for them?” She asked. The gang looks at each other, and laughs. “No, we searched the whole school, and I'm pretty sure it was all a hoax.” Minuette lied. “We did find tons of missing stuff though.” Sad Vinyl before grabbing their box of recovered goods. “If you see Golden, tell her we've got her carrots.” “I'll let her know, thanks again.” Said Bonbon before heading out. They all bid her ado, and Vinyl blows his whistle. “Shall we commence the daily lunch swap?” The DJ said confidently. Everypony grabs their lunches, and Quibble likes what Minuette has. “Ooh, corn chips, trade you my mustard sandwich.” Quibble requested. “Sorry, Quibble, these are spoken for.” Said Minuette. She walks over to the air vent, takes out a chip, and holds it near the grate making sounds, glowing green eyes emerge from the duct. “Here you go, bud.” Minuette gives her corn chip to Cinnamon, and giggles as he eats it.
Episode 4: The Pair of ClubsView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 4: The Pair of ClubsVinyl and Octavia are waiting outside the at a train station for a train to appear. When it appears, they both get on it. Vinyl gets to a seat first, and Octavia follows her. “Oh, Octy, watch out for the…” “...Gum? Saw it.” Octavia gives a salute then jumps over the gum. She then slips on a banana peel. Vinyl catches her. “Banana. I was gonna say banana.” Vinyl corrected her. “Oh, thanks Vinyl.” Octavia blushed happily Octavia takes the banana peel off of her foreleg. She throws it to a man. The man yelps. The girls both sit down. “Hey, today's the day we have to pick an after-school activity. Did you figure out which one you're gonna sign up for?” Vinyl asked. “Not yet. I had a little problem with the booklet. It might have accidentally slipped over my hoof and on to a wet stain on the floor.” “It's okay, I've got mine.” Said Vinyl as she takes out her booklet. “We should totally pick an activity that we can do together, I don't anything cutting down on our hang time.” “Me neither. Do you realize if we don't do something together, we're gonna lose out on two hours of hang time a day?” Octavia shows a notebook. “That's 10 hours a week and 40 hours a month of not hanging out.” “Relax, bud. That isn’t gonna happen.” Vinyl patted her marefriend on the shoulder. She goes back to looking at her booklet. “Let's see; Chess Club, Gardening, Introduction to Model Trains.” “Oh, definitely model trains.” Said a voice. Vinyl and Octavia turn around to see a train conductor named All Aboard step in. “Hey girls, just overheard your convo, go with trains, they're literally tons of fun. Choo-choo!” The stallion returns to the controls, making more train noises. “All aboard!” Thanks, sir. we’ll talk it into consideration.” Said Octavia. “What about gymnastics?” Said Goldie Delicious stepping into Vinyl and Octavia’s convo. “It's a great activity, and you can do it anywhere.” She grabs the handles above her, and dismounts with numerous backflips into a split; to the family in front of her. “Ta-da!” The girl and mother give her a ten, but the baby gives seven and a half. “Thanks for the suggestion, Mrs. Delicious.” Octavia whispers to Vinyl. “Is there anypony we don't know on this train?” “Hmm, Intro to Balloon Animals, Arc Welding.” Vinyl turns the page. “No way, Lucha Libre? What do you think? Could that be our after school activity?” “That sounds bogus, And I’m totally in!” Said Octavia cheerfully. “Uh, a little help.” Said Goldie sliding over to the girls, stuck in her split. ******** Later at Canterlot High, the two mares enter the Lucha Libre Club. “This looks awesome!” Exclaimed Vinyl. She and Octavia run to the box of masks, and takes two out. “Here, let's be green.” She puts her mask on. “That way we can be on the same team.” Octavia puts her mask on. “Sweet! Now, what are our character's backstories? Ooh, how about this? Since we're green, we can be radioactive slime mares.” Vinyl laughs at this. “You’re too funny, babe.” Just then, two other mares named: Toe Tapper and Torch Song approach Vinyl and Octavia. “You guys wanna wrestle? Me and Toe Tapper against you two.” Said Torch. “Sure, what are the rules?” Octavia asked. Torch and Tapper laugh, Vinyl and Octavia look at each other and laugh nervously with them. Torch puts on her mask. “There are no rules.” She said threateningly. Torch grabs the pair and flings them, screaming into the ring. Vinyl rolls and is fine, but Octavia bounces, dazed. “So, what's your character's backstory? Are you both Aztec warriors lost in time? Or oranges who escaped from the juice factory?” Said Octavia as their opponents enter the ring. “Less talking! More wrestling!” Said Torch looking intense. Torch elbow drops Octavia, and a fight cloud emerges, it dissipates revealing Torch sitting on a dazed Octavia, Vinyl pulls her bestie away. “Alright, here's the plan, you lure them over here, and I'll jump off the ropes and pin 'em.” Said Vinyl with confidence. “But, won't that make them mad?” Said Octavia looking worried. “Don't worry about it, we can take 'em. Just channel your aggression.” Octavia tries to rile herself up. “Come on babe, you can do it. What makes you angry?” Shakes her “Tap into your tough side.” Octavia tries to do that, when suddenly she begins to walk looking dizzy. “Octavia? Octavia?! Speak to me!” Exclaimed Vinyl worriedly. Just then, Tapper and Torch attack the DJ, another fight cloud emerges, Octavia walks past, still looking dizzy, and the cloud ceases; Vinyl has Tapper pinned, and Torch, who's eating Vinyls mane, goes after The cellist. “Octy! Look out!” Octavia is still dizzy, and doesn't see Torch behind her, she turns around when she hears Torch yell, and yells in fear, Torch body slams Octavia, and Octavia goes flying, screaming right out of the ring, and eventually lands. Vinyl gasps and goes after Octavia, while Tapper is now dazed and falls over. “Tavi! Where are you?!” She finds Octavia cowering under the caller's table. “You're not having fun are you?” She asked with concern. “No, no, this is what radioactive slime mares do, they hide.” The Cellist lied. Octavia under the table, but Vinyl lifts the cloth. “It's okay Babe, maybe Lucha isn't your thing.” “Sorry, I know how much you like it.” “Don't worry, we'll find another club we can do together, one that we both love.” “Thanks, Vinyl. You’re the best friend I could ever ask for.” Octavia smiled with gratitude. The pair walk out, arms around each other, Torch and Tapper wave goodbye. “See you guys in algebra!” Said Torch. ******** Later in the hallway, Vinyl takes the booklet out of her locker and reads through it. “Let's see, Drama, Jewellery, Robotics, Wood Shop…” Vinyl read. “Woah, wait, robotics? We have to.” Vinyl become serious. “I'm not taking no for an answer.” She looks at Vinyl, and starts begging. “Can we Tavi? Can we please?” “You got it, pal.” Just then, Gizmo walks up to them and is covered in arrows. “Hey Guys, can I borrow one of your books if you're done? Archery club was definitely not for me.” “Sure.” Said Vinyl giving the book to him. “If you're thinking of trying lucha libre, watch out for Torch.” Octavia warned him. Vinyl and Octavia walk to robotics club, and everyone is building and coding. A few moments later, they are finished with their projects. “This breakfast bot is gonna cook everything; eggs, bacon, toast and pancakes. How's your robot coming, babe?” Asked Vinyl. Octavia is standing next to a pile of parts and holding a spring and a bolt. “Good.” She lied. “I've finally figured out that this piece, attaches to this piece.” She puts the spring over the bolt thread, and the spring hits her in the face. “Ouch.” “I have a great idea, why don't you help me with my breakfast bot?” “That’s nice of you Vinyl. Besides I’m hungry anyway.” “I'm almost done, can you connect the eye sensor to the servo motor?” “Sure.” Octavia works on the hardware and closes the panel. “Okay, all set.” Vinyl finished wiring the remote, and gives it to Octavia. “Alright! Who's ready for breakfast?” Octavia turns the bot on. “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” Said the Breakfast Bot. “How 'bout we start with some hash browns?” Octavia requested. The bot's lights go off, it then opens it's compartment, where a raw egg falls out and breaks on the desk. “Um, Tavi? Are you sure you connected that right?” “I'm like eighty percent sure, or maybe sixty.” Octavia awkwardly laughs. “Hmm, maybe you better turn it off so I can check it out.” Octavia presses a button on the remote, and Breakfast Bot goes crazy. The breakfast bot goes nuts. “Time or breakfast.” Takes off. “Time for breakfast.” Flips another robot with it's spatula hand, and pats it down like a pancake. “Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast.” Mixes another robot wit it's whisk hand. “Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast.” Swaps it's kitchen tool hands for pancakes and syrup and starts flinging breakfast all over the room. “Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast. Time for breakfast.” Vinyl hits the emergency shut off, and the robot powers down. Vinyl ends up with an egg and bacon and pancake smiley face, which falls off, revealing her despondent face. Octavia in hiding behind their work station. “Psst, is everyone mad at us?” Octavia whispered nervously. Vinyl everyone surrounding them, angry, and hides with her marefriend. “No, but, robotics might not be your thing.” “No, I can make this work, how 'about I just watch from under here and never touch any of the robots?” “Or we could just find another club.” Said Vinyl putting her hoof on her marefriends shoulder. “But you love robotics.” “Yeah, but I'd rather find another activity than lose ten hours a week of quality hang time with my bestie.” Vinyl kisses Octavia on the cheek. “I love you Vinyl.” “I love you more, Tavi. there's lots of other clubs we can try, the most important thing right now is, that we leave immediately.” Vinyl and Octavia run out and the other club members throw tools and machine parts at them, and one throws their bot on the ground. Later, the girls are in Pottery Club. “Pottery is kinda awesome, I'm going to make a new dog dish for our house.” Said Vinyl. “Hmm, I think I'm gonna love it too, if I could just find the on button for this thing.” Said Octavia not knowing what to do. “You have to step on the foot pedal.” Said Vinyl pointing at it. Octavia does so, but too hard, and the table spins too fast, the duo, seeing where this is going, duck in cover, and Octavia’s clay splatters all over Gizmo. “Sorry, Gizmo.” The two said in unison. “It's okay.” He replied and falls over. “Maybe this club isn't for us.” Said Vinyl and Octavia nods in agreement. Next, the girls try Knitting Club. “This is so much better than pottery.” Octavia said cheerfully as she shows the sweater she's making. Vinyl tied herself up in yarn. “Yeah, so much better.” She lied as she tries to get the yarn off, and accidentally flings her needles into Gizmo’s hair, Gizmo passes out. “Let's try another club.” Next they try Cooking Club. “Today's recipe is preparing calamari, step one, pick out your squid.” Said the DJ Octavia picks up a large squid. “Here’s a whopper.” Suddenly the squid squirts Octavia in the face with ink. “Woah!” Exclaimed Vinyl as she grabs the squid. “Ah! Squid ink. Blech.” Exclaimed Octavia. The squid clings to Octavia’s face, and she screams. Vinyl pulls it off, they fiddle around trying to catch it, and eventually do. “I got him.” They said cheerfully. The squid inks again, covering Gizmo. Gizmo wipes the ink off his face. “I miss being homeschooled.” ******** On the train home, Vinyl crosses the last club off the list. “Well, we tried every club the school has to offer.” Said Vinyl looking sad. “Even Model Train Club?” Said a voice, revealing to be All Aboard again. “It was cancelled due to lack of interest.” Said Octavia to the conductor. All Aboard gasps in shock. “What?!” He goes into the cab, abruptly stops the train, and makes an announcement on the intercom. “Attention everyone, this train is out of service, your conductor, needs to walk this off, chugga-chugga choo choo.” He said as everyone groans at this. “Can he do that?” Asked Octavia to Vinyl. “Well he isn’t the first conductor to do that.” “Fair point.” ******** Vinyl and Octavia eventually make it back to their house, still sad. “Listen Octy, I know we really wanted to do our after school activity together, but we're out of time, we have to pick by tomorrow.” “I know, I don't wanna say it but maybe you should go back to where you were happy; the Lucha Libre Club.” Vinyl stops and is shocked to hear this. “You mean without you?” “What other choice do we have, Vinyl?” “Yeah, maybe you're right, and maybe you should just do the thing that made you happy; Robotics Club." Said Vinyl before black fluids start pouring from Octavia’s eyes. “Awe, babe, are you crying?” She asked in concern hugging her marefriend. “No, that's just from the squid ink, but I am sad.” She sighed, not being able to spend a good time with Vinyl. “I know, me too.” Sighed Vinyl. The two enter their house, and night, Vinyl is in the kitchen, looking through the pictures in her phone, one of her and Octavia in Cooking Club, then Knitting Club, she laughs at it, and then Robotics Club, she smiles. In their room, Octavia is doing the same thing, looking at the pictures of her and Vinyl in Cooking Club, Pottery Club, which she too laughs at, and finally Lucha Libre Club, Sid also smiles. ******** The next day, Octavia returns to Lucha Libre Club, with her green mask. “All right, you goons! It's time for a rematch.” The cellist said before charging at Tapper. “Oh hey, I thought you guys quit.” Said Tapper. “Well, you thought wrong my orange friend.” The gray mare raises her mask, and realizes something. “Hey, where's Vinyl?” “She's not here, but, let me go get Torch.” Said Tapper taking off. Torch, meanwhile, has a purple girl in a headlock. “Ah! Help me!” Cried the student before Torch pulls her away. Octavia nervously laughs. “That's okay, I have to go.” She puts her mask back on. “Tell Torch I said hi.” The cellist leaves. Meanwhile at Robotics Club. “Hey guys, heh heh, look who's back.” Said Vinyl nervously. Everyone grabs their robots in fear. The Breakfast Bot comes to Vinyl remembering her. “Mother, you came back.” It offers Vinyl a heart shaped pancake, but gets yanked away. “What do you want?” Said a robotics mare who huffed. “Just looking for Octavia.” Said Vinyl. “She's not here. Remember? You guys quit.” Said the robotics mare sternly. “Ah, sorry, I thought Octavia would be here, thanks.” Vinyl waved as she runs out. The Breakfast Bot comes out the door. “Wait! You haven't had breakfast.” The Robot shoots Vinyl a bagel, she pops it in her mouth and continues running through the halls, she looks around. Meanwhile Octavia is doing the same thing. They keep on running until they run right into each other. “Tavi?” “Yes, Vinyl?” She said as she takes off her mask. “I wanna join your club!” They both said and are shocked to hear each other say that. “I really don't care what we do, as long as we do it together.” Vinyl grinned. “Me too.” Octavia agreed. The pair embraced each other and leaned over for a deep passionate kiss on each other’s lips. “I love you, Babe.” “I love you too, Sweetheart.” They let go of their embrace. “let's go to Robotics Club, I'm totally gonna help you.” Said Vinyl. “Nope, I've already got the mask, let's go back to Lucha Libre.” Said Octavia. “No way, we're doing robotics.” Said the DJ as she throws Octavia’s mask away. The Breakfast Bot comes to its creators. “Toast is ready.” The bot, who's wearing the radioactive booger-person mask, pops buttered toast into the floor, the girls laugh. Gizmo comes in and is amazed by the bot. “Oh, wow, are you guys starting some sort, of Lucha Libre Robotics Club?” “What?” Said Vinyl in unison “No.” Said Octavia in unison Suddenly they get an idea. “I mean, yes, yes, we are starting a Lucha Libre Robotics Club.” Said Vinyl. “And We're totally gonna do it together.” Said Octavia as she and Vinyl locked arms around each other. ******** Later, Vinyl powers up her robot, and looks at Octavia, who nods. “Okay Gizmo! You can start the match!” Octavia called out to him. Gizmo salutes theme and grabs a microphone. “Alright bots! I want a good clean battle, no hitting below the fan belt.” Breakfast Bot is ready, and so is Vinyl’s new bot. “Woohoo! Let's do this! I'm gonna take you down Babe.” “Come at me, love.” The robots battle, when suddenly Torch appears. “Hey! Can I join this club?” Torch asked. “Yeah.” Vinyl replied. “Of course.” Octavia replied as well. Torch enters the ring and puts her mask on, does a battle cry, and charges into the fight, a few punching sounds and machine parts are flying everywhere, Gizmo gets thrown next to where Vinyl and Octavia are. “My money's on Torch.” Said Gizmo dazed. Vinyl and Octavia look at each other and laugh cheerfully.
Episode 6: Cheater by the DozenView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 6: Cheater by the DozenOver at The Scratch and Melody residence, Vinyl and Octavia are playing Tireks Revenge where they are playing multiplayer. Suddenly, Octavia pauses the game. “What was that?” Said Vinyl. “Time for the 20/20 rule. For every 20 minutes looking at a screen, you should look away for 20 seconds.” Said Octavia. “Is that really a thing?” “Of course. These peepers gotta last us a lifetime.” She said, gesturing to her eyes. She turns around and positions Vinyl’s face to do the same. “Oh, hey, look. There's Quibble.” Quibble is walking to the house across the street. “What's he doing around here?” Octavia asked. Quibble meets up with a girl at the door and they hug. She invites him in. “I'll tell you what he's doing. He's cheating on Clear Sky! I knew it. Underneath that flawless hair and those washboard abs beats the cold heart of a liar.” Growled Vinyl as she cracks her neck, growls and proceeds to go beat Quibble up. Octavia holds her best friend back. “Slow down there, love. Why don't we wait until he comes out? Then we'll see what's really going on.” Later, Quibble is leaving the girl's house. “See you tomorrow, Quibble.” Said the girl who happens to be Junebug. “Bye.” Said Quibble as he proceeds to leave until Vinyl and Octavia show up in front of him. “Hey, Quibble.” Said Vinyl suspiciously. “Uh, hey, guys.” Said Quibble nervously stopping. “Fancy seeing you here, miles away from your house. And Clear Sky, your beautiful...loyal...girlfriend.” Snarled Vinyl at Quibble. Octavia holds Vinyl back again. “So, what are you doing here?” “Uh, I can't really get into that. But do me a favor and please don't tell Clear Sky you saw me here. It's complicated. Thanks. See ya.” Quibble prepares to run off while knocking over some trash cans and chuckling nervously. “Vinyl, you were right! There's only one thing to do now.” Said Octavia glaring at the runaway Quibble. “Get ripped, defeat Quibble in hooficuffs, and win back Clear Sky's honor?” Vinyl suggested. “Uh, no. I was thinking we tell Clear the truth.” Said Octavia. “To each his own, my friend.” Said Vinyl doing push-ups. ******** Outside of Clear’s house. Octavia is going to to tell her what she found out and takes a deep breath. “Here goes nothing.” Octavia said before she can knock on the door. But before she does so, she hears Clear sky Talking with Quibble on her phone. “Oh, Quibble. I can't wait for our anniversary date this Friday.” Clear sighed happily. “I'm counting down the minutes.” Quibble said in a singsong voice. “4,320!” They exclaimed happily, gasp at this and laugh. “Oh, we are so clearly soulmates. I literally don't know what I would do without you in my life.” Clear cooed. Octavia has seen all this and frowns doubting herself about telling the unicorn; she walks away where Vinyl calls her on her phone. “Come in, Tavi! This is Vinyl. Did you tell her yet?” “Negative, Vi. It wasn't the right time.” “There's never gonna be a "right time" to tell Clear that Quibble’s a lowdown, two-bit, snake-in-the-grass cheater.” The mane 6 approach Octavia shocked from hearing what Vinyl said, startling the gray mare. “WHAT?! Quibble’s cheating on Clear Sky, tell us everything.” Shouted Rarity. “You can't just come here and-” Rainbow Dash angrily grabs Octavia by her bowtie. “Okay, okay!” She said angrily. Segue to Octavia finishing up the details. “And then he was all like, but don't tell Clear Sky you saw me. It's complicated.” Octavia said mimicking Quibble’s voice. “That dirtbag!” Rarity growled. “Now hang on. Although Octavia’s story does seem to indicate that Quibble is a cheating scoundrel, we don't have enough evidence yet.” Said Twilight. “Twilight’s right. We should plant some.” Rarity suggested. “Incorrect. We need to gather some.” Said the alicorn. “Yeah. You can't drop a bomb on Clear without being 1 zillion% sure. She'll end you if you're wrong.” Said Applejack. “One time, I told her we were out of bread, but then she found a loaf and beat me with it.” Said Dash. “So, how do you propose we gather this evidence?” Octavia questioned. “STAKEOUT!” The mane 6 shouted. ******** At the Scratch and Melody residence, Octavia is checking the house across the street for Quibble. “Oh. Has Cheater-Cheater-Pumpkin-Eater shown up yet?” Said Pinkie Pie. “Negative.” Replied the cellist. Vinyl is working with a punching bag to train for his "showdown" with Quibble. Fluttershy enters with some salmon on a platter. “I was hoping you would all be hungry.” Fluttershy said offering her friends some. Twilight enters the house looking scared. “I rigged audio surveillance, but a vicious beast prevented me from installing visuals.” Flashback to Twilight’s encounter with said beast. Its shadow overlaps her. “AAH! LARGE WILD ANIMAL!” Cried the alicorn teleporting away. The beast turns out to have just been a cat at the windowsill. End flashback with everyone except Pinkie looking at her with disappointment. “Guys! Here comes the Quib-sled!” Exclaimed the party pony. The others gather around and see Quibble arriving at the house across the street. He looks around to see if anyone's watching him and they duck down before he sees them. He then enters the house with no one watching. “Okay, stud muffin, let's just see what you're up to.” Said Twilight sternly. The alicorn activates the radio and they all gather as romantic music starts playing. “Ti amo.” Said Junebug “Ti amo.” Said a mystery voice. “That's ‘I love you’ in Italian! His cheating ways have crossed the language barrier.” Said the alicorn. The girl and the boy who is likely to be Quibble kiss. Pinkie gasps and covers her eyes. The mane 6 scream in panic and shut the curtain to avoid being detected. “I think we've seen enough.” Said Vinyl sternly. “Let's get him!” Said Octavia with determination in her eyes. They all charge out of Vinyl and Octavia’s house and stop and gasp to see that the boy in the house the girl was kissing was actually her boyfriend and they just mistook him for Quibble in his silhouette. They duck into the bush. Pinkie pops up. “Wow. Quibble’s really put on some height.” Twilight pops up. “That’s not Quibble.” Vinyl pops up. “What’s going on?” Octavia pops up. “And who is that?” The girl and her boyfriend kiss and Quibble steps out of the house as they show their gratitude to him. “Ooh, I get it. Quibble doesn't have a side-gal. He's just friends with that chick. And Daddy-Long-Legs is her boyfriend.” Pinkie explained. The mane 6 turn to Vinyl and Octavia, disappointed and frustrated. “Nice going, you two! Way to waste our time!” Rainbow Dash scolded. “And our food!” Fluttershy agreed. The pair shyly smiles. ******** The next day at the mall's arcade, Vinyl and Octavia are playing on some of the machines until Octavia pauses them. “What the?” Said Vinyl. “Time for the 20/20 rule.” Said Octavia. “Didn't that get us into trouble last time?” Vinyl said unamused. Octavia obeys the rule while Vinyl does not. The two suddenly notices Quibble at the window. “Oh, hey, look. There's Quibble.” Said Octavia. He’s over at a dress shop. Octavia using binoculars. “What's he doing in a dress shop?” “Where'd you get binoculars?” Vinyl asked. A girl comes out a dressing room in a dress. Vinyl gasps. “Now he's with a different girl?” “Ha! I knew we were right!” Octavia exclaimed. The DJ gets furious. “That does it!” She goes over to the gym to get pumped. “It's all so clear! Quibble is cheating! We just had the wrong girl.” Said Octavia as Vinyl tries lifting a barbell only to end up struggling. It gets caught on her chest and she's grunting. “I know! I'm mad, too!” Still not noticing. “Good! Channel that anger.” She finally takes notices her marefriend. “Oh.” She lifts the barbell off Octavia as she breathes heavily for air. “I’m so sorry, Vinyl.” She said hugging the unicorn. “It’s just pain, buddy.” Vinyl coughed. ******** At the dress shop, Quibble and the girl have just finished shopping. “We're still on for later, right?” Said the mare who happens to be Luster Dawn. “We're still on for later, right?” Said the unicorn. “I wouldn't miss it for the world.” Said Quibble. They hug and leave. Vinyl and Octavia pop up from behind a clothes rack. “Wouldn't miss it for the world.” Octavia mimicked. “A cheater and a cheese ball.” “We have to tell the others.” Vinyl suggested. “But they're not gonna believe us after what happened last time. We need photographic evidence.” Octavia suggested. “Good point. Let's roll.” Vinyl nodded. Vinyl leaves, but before Octavia follows, she notices a customer looking for a dress. The gray mare takes out the purple dress. “How about this one? It'll bring out your eyes.” The customer takes the dress and likes it and Octavia heads out. ******** As Quibble gets his bike, another girl comes up and waves to him, showing they obviously know each other. Vinyl and Octavia shoot periscopes upward from the trash cans nearby. “Wait. Now who's this girl?” Said Vinyl. “I think we've stumbled onto something bigger than we expected: a multiple cheater cheater pumpkin eater situation.” Said Octavia. Quibble gets in the carriage. The girls take photos of this before they take off. “Come on! We have to follow them.” Said Vinyl as she and her marefriend pop out of the cans. They put on their helmets and bust out Octavia’s tandem bike. “Tavi, let me do the pedaling. I need to work out my thighs.” The DJ rings the bell and pedals off as Octavia yelps. She cycles all the way up a hill to the point of fatigue. They arrive at a clear make-out point for teens and find the car of the girl Quibble took off with. They then hide in a shrub and pop their heads out. “This is a new low. I can't believe he'd take some random girl to Make-Out Hill.” Whispered Octavia to Vinyl. Vinyl has her phone with her. “We got you know, Pumpkin Eater.” Quibble and the girl are laughing and Vinyl gets a shot of it before they take off. “Follow that car!” As they follow, the girl's car comes to a stop sign and Quibble gets his bag out and they part ways while the pair spy from a mailbox and a cardboard box. Quibble then stops at another house. “Where's he going now?” Said the DJ with the binoculars. Quibble knocks on the door and sees another woman at the door. “This is getting ridiculous!” Vinyl takes of the binoculars. The window Quibble can be seen in is covered up by the curtain. “Blast. Lost our visuals.” Octavia frowned. Vinyl then turns her attention to the woman's dog coming out in the backyard and smiles with an idea. Cut to her getting along with the dog. “Who's a good boy?” Vinyl cooed while patting the dog. “Not Quibble.” Said Octavia irked. Vinyl puts a little surveillance camera on the dog's collar. “And scoot!” The dog enters the house and the DJ checks the surveillance on her phone getting a clear shot from the collar camera. “And we're in.” “Ooh...shaky cam doesn't agree with me.” The cellist said woozy while putting her hoof on the unicorns shoulder to keep her standing. The camera shows Quibble in the living room with the woman. “Why don't you slip out of those clothes, and we'll get started.” Said the woman who happens to be Wild Fire. Quibble starts to take off his clothes and the duo gasp at that. “I'M NOT ALLOWED TO WATCH NUDITY MOVIES!” Octavia cried while covering her eyes. The dog gets all the way up to Quibble. Quibble coos to the dog. “Oh, yes, I love you, too!” He gets licked. “Aw, such a pretty girl.” He kisses the dog. Vinyl is disgusted. “Disgusting! Now he's crossing species.” Quibble eventually leaves the house as the two mares then follow Quibble to an alley where he goes down an obscure stairway. “What is this place?” Vinyl asked. “Probably some kind of underground club for cheaters.” Octavia guessed. They go into the "club" and are hiding at a table behind menus looking stern. “I don't see Pumpkin Eater anywhere.” Vinyl said. Quibble comes in and starts dancing with a man with a lot of vigor and passion as if it was some kind of romantic dance. “Man, this guy is full of surprises!” Said Octavia having observed the dance. The two glare at him as Vinyl takes a picture before Quibble can even look. They then follow Quibble to a jewelry store where he meets up with a familiar face. “That's the girl from the mall!” Said Vinyl as they see them go in. “Come on!” They rush over to the display window and see him holding out a ring and kneeling down before her, which can only mean one thing… “I can't believe it! He's popping the question!” Octavia cried in horror. Vinyl takes the picture. “That's it! I'm calling this in, Babe!” She calls the mane 6. ******** Vinyl and Octavia are showing the others photos they took of Quibble with the other girls and the dancer. “You believe us now?” Said Vinyl. “Yes, we’re sorry we didn’t believe you two.” Said Pinkie downtrodden. “It’s fine, and this is bad.” Said Octavia. “And to think, poor Clear Sky is at home primping for their date tonight, unaware that their love is a total sham.” Sighed Twilight. The door is opening up and they all gasp and duck as Quibble and the mall girl come out and Quibble makes a call. “Is this Uppercrust Italian restaurant? I'd like to make a reservation for tonight. Your most romantic table. We're celebrating something very special.” Quibble grinned. The others have overheard it. “Ugh. He's taking her to dinner? He's supposed to be taking Clear Sky!” Said Dash irritated. “Uh, not to mention he's getting married?” Said Vinyl annoyed. “We have to tell Clear Sky before it's too late.” Fluttershy suggested. They all rush back to Clear’s House to warn Clear and enter her room but gasp to find that she's not there. “It's too late! She must have already left!” Dash exclaimed in fear. Rarity tries calling her while biting her hoof but gets nothing. “And she’s not answering my phone.” “Well, if we can't get to Clear Sky, at least we can get to Quibble.” Said Octavia determined. “I hope he likes eating pumpkin through a straw!” Growled Vinyl. They all hurry to the restaurant. ******** At Uppercrust, The gang bursts through the door and looks for Quibble until they spot him. “There he is!” Said Dash. They march right up to his table to confront him. “Well, well, well. If it isn't the Pumpkin Eater. Celebrating your engagement, Quibble Pants?” Snarled Vinyl. “My engagement? What?” Said the stallion who is baffled. “Oh, so you're not here with your fiancée? Then who did you bring?” Snarled Octavia. “The blonde? The guy? The dog?” Exclaimed Rarity. “It's go-time, Romeo!” Vinyl gets on the table and tugs at Quibble’s tie only to get flung off screaming and crash into a dinner cart. “Mama mia! The linguini dim sum!” Exclaimed the Italian waiter. Just then Clear Sky appears right behind. “Uh, what is going on?” “CLEAR SKY?!” The 8 mares exclaimed in shock. “What are you doing here?” Said Pinkie. “What are you doing here?” Said Clear. “I'm sorry you have to find out this way. Quibble’s been cheating on you.” Said Vinyl. “What are you talking about?!” Said Quibble and Clear confusingly. “I'm talking about this!” Exclaimed the DJ as she angrily places the photos he took on the table. “Care to explain?” “Sure.” Quibble points to a photo of the mall girl. “That's my friend, Luster Dawn, from the department store. She was helping me pick out the dress and earrings I bought Clear.” The gang turn to see that Clear is wearing the exact same dress and earrings. He is now holding the photo of him with the girl in the car. “That's Maria, from my tour guide job. She was showing me the most romantic spots to take Lori to.” He shows the photo of the woman with the dog. “And that's Wild Fire from my dry-cleaning job. She was fitting me for a tux.” He comes across the photo of him with the dancing guy “Oh.” He chuckles. “And that's David. I met him on the bus. He was teaching me how to dance.” He shows a photo of the girl from the house across the street from Vinyl and Octavia’s. “And in case you were wondering, Vinyl and Octavia’s neighbor is Junebug, my co-worker at the pizzeria. She taught me how to order in Italian-Mandarin.” “Oh, wow. So, I guess we were really wrong about the dog.” Said Vinyl as Clear gives a deadpan look. “Sorry, you guys. We got a little ahead of ourselves.” Clear becomes furious. “Well, you did almost ruin our anniversary! I oughta beat every one of you!” Upon hearing that, Rainbow quickly hides the bread sticks under the table knowing what's gonna happen. “But, I appreciate all of you looking out for me.” She said calmly grateful. “So, you're not mad?” Said Octavia. Clear shakes her head. Dash puts the bread sticks back and eats one. A chef walks towards them. “Ahem! I hate to break up this lovefest, but how do you intend to pay for my linguini dim sum?” Later, Quibble and Clear Sky are dancing together, and Vinyl and Octavia are working in the kitchen to work off the mess that they’ve made. “Hurry up with those kung pao anchovies!” The chef ordered. “Well, at least all that working out won't go to waste.” Said Vinyl. The Unicorn struggles to open a jar of anchovies and Octavia takes it and opens it himself, showing her marefriend was turning the lid the wrong way. “You loosened it, hon.” Said Octavia sympathetically. The jar opens up and some stinky yucky anchovies appear. “Uuuuuuugh!” Exclaimed the pair in disgust.
Episode 7: Best Friends ForeverView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 7: Best Friends ForeverRight outside the Scratch and Melody residence, the doorbell rings, and Octavia answers it. “Uh Vinyl?” Said Octavia. “Yeah?” Replied Vinyl. “Someone is at our doorstep.” “Sup girl.” Said Wooden Toaster, a Pegasus with a light greenish coat and a green messy mane. “Never mind, it’s one of those mares that’s trying to get hip with the incoccent ones.” Said the cellist deadpan. “Dude, This is just the way I talk.” Pointed out Wooden. “I'm so sorry.” “It’s fine.” “...for you.” There was a moment of silence. “Does Vinyl Scratch still live here?” Asked the green mare. “Oh, yes. Vinyl! Vinyl walks over, sees Wooden and gasps. “Aw, Wooden!” She laughs. “You haven't changed at all!” She and the Pegasus share a hug. “Octavia, this is Wooden, my BFF!” Octavia chuckles nervously trying to smile. “Oh...Pleased to meet you.” The three go to the dining room. “Did you really have to invite her for lunch?” She growled at Vinyl. “Why are you so angry I had a best friend before you?” Vinyl asked confusingly. “Heh, no one's angry! Who's angry?!” Octavia shouted. Vinyl points at Wooden, whom Octavia is about to tie her up on a chair. “Oh sorry.” “Why don't you have a seat, Wooden? We'll bring out some food that isn't tied up.” Said Vinyl glaring at Octavia. “Uh, thanks, man.” The Pegasus replied as she left the dining room leaving Vinyl and Octavia. “So, how long were you two a thing?” The cellist asked suspiciously. “Uh, a few years before you arrived and before she-” “Hmm, hmm, hmm…” “Uh, what are you doing?” “Oh, I was just trying to work out if I give a darn!” She said as Vinyl sighs. “So, was it serious?” “Yeah, you know, things were moving along. We moved into a hideout together…” She notices Octavia is checking her pockets for something. “Uh, what are you doing now?” “Oh, just looking for a darn to give. Were there others?” “No, of course not! You're-” Octavia gives her friend air. “Take this. I'm afraid that's all the darns I have to give.” Vinyl growls and walks away. “Hey Wooden, why don't we hang out and grab something to eat in town? The food here is a little too Classic!” She yelled glaring at The cellist, slamming the door. “OH YEAH?! Well, you know what?! Uh, you-you-you know what? Uh, uh, you-you, uh…” The gray mare yelled trying to think of a comeback. Vinyl and Wooden look at each other and shrug, they then leave. ******** Later, Vinyl and Wooden are at a pair of swings. “So, what you've been up to? How's Maresoda? Made any friends?” Vinyl began. “It's hard to tell. Everyone is wearing ski masks all year long. Either I have friends or I'm on a CIA watch list.” Vinyl chuckles to that. “Yeah, summer's so short there they just call it s. Vinyl laughs. “It's so cold up there, rappers can only sag their legs under their level.” Vinyl laughs hard. “Alright, alright, I get it. It's great! Stop trying to make me jealous.” “Yeah, well, it would've been better if you were around.” “It's that lonely up here, huh?” “No, I do have one friend, his name is Hawk. He's pretty frozen.” “What?” “That's how you say cool in Maresoda. You have to adjust the temperature. Although, if he knew I was hanging out with you now, I'd probably be in room-temperature water.” “Ah.” “He's a nice guy, but, you know, it's not the same.” “Look, I'm sorry, pal. I really wanted to keep in touch and send you a letter or something, but turns out it takes toddlers four years to learn how to write. After all that time, it felt a bit like posting a get-well-soon card through the window of a hearse.” Wooden Chuckles. “Well, I'm back now, and I'm glad we get to catch up on lost time.” “Me too, buddy. Me too.” ******** As Vinyl walks back home, Octavia is still heard thinking of a comeback. “Well, you-you know what?! Uh, well, you know what? You're like a…” said Octavia stuttering. “What the?” Said Vinyl as she opens the door. “Tavi, are you seriously still looking for a comeback?” Octavia looks away crossing her arms, holding her tears. “Octy, just because Wooden’s back in my life doesn't mean I love you any less.” She chuckled. “Really? How much do you love me?” The cellist huffed. “Babe, I love you more than elderly mares love walking around in their birthday suits in sports locker rooms.” The gray mare snickers. “More than Equestrians ove telling you which famous people are Equestrian?” “More than PC gamers love to bash game consoles.” Octavia giggles. “That's quite a lot.” “Come here.” Vinyl added, holding her arms out. Octavia giggled softly and nodded her head before leaning into Vinyl’s embrace. Once she felt Vinyl’s arms squeeze tightly around her shoulders, she wrapped her own arms around her waist. “I'm sorry if it looks like I'm overreacting, but I just don't trust that mare.” Octavia said apologetically. “It’s ok buddy, but would you please just give her a chance?” “Meh.” “C’mon.” “Eh.” “Well, do it for me?” “Mmm, I guess.” The two let go of their hug. “How about we hang out together and play some games? You'll see. She’s a great guy.” “Alright.” Octavia suddenly gasps as she found a comeback from earlier. “Sorry my seasoning isn't the taste of your treasoning!” “Whaaaat?” “You know, the salt comeback from before, and-oh, never mind.” The Cellist said defeated. ******** During daytime, Vinyl, Octavia, and Wooden are playing a video game. Vinyl is struggling with her controller. “Man, I am really struggling with this third-party controller. I think it's broken.” “Dude, that's not a controller.” Wooden pointed out. “Yeah, it's the remote from our new massage chair.” Octavia added. The three hear noises from the chair going insane and have a laugh about it. “All right, you guys. Finish this one, and I'll take the winner. I'll just go get some drinks.” Said the DJ. As Vinyl goes to the kitchen Octavia glares at Wooden, who is still laughing and approaches her. “Okay, what's your game, you creep muffin?” Octavia said trying to impersonate a deep voice. “Ugh. Look, just give me a chance.” Wooden scoffed. Octavia goes back to her normal voice. “A chance to abduct your best friend and lock her up in a cabin in the woods?” “What the? No! Look, can we just bury the hatchet?” “Bury? Hatchet?” Snarled the cellist making quotes with her hooves. “Okay, I don't know what you're trying to rope me into, but-” “Rope?” “Dude, you have a pretty weird relationship with your BFF.” “BFF-F-F-F-F-F-F-F.” Octavia whispered creepily. “Alright, I'm out of here.” Said the Pegasus as she leaves, leaving Octavia proud of herself. Vinyl enters the living room overhearing this. “What? W-why? What's going on?” “Look, I was gonna invite you guys to a sleepover, but I think it's best if I don't. I don't want to make any waves between you and Octavia. I just think you guys need a little chat... in front of a shrink... while wearing straitjackets... behind two-way glass... under the supervision of armed guards... because you're both crazy. I just wanted to make that clear. Okay, bye.” Wooden finished as she leaves the house.” “Wait, what? No. W-Wooden! Fuz-ugh.” Vinyl growls at Octavia, knowing that she had something to do with this, she walks up to the cellist who is using the laptop in their room. “What did you do?!” She said angrily. Octavia scoffs. “Nothing.” “Please, you obviously did something. Did you see her face? She had the expression of someone who had just sat down on a warm toilet seat. What did she ever do to you?” Octavia starts welling up up tears. “Well, when you went away to get drinks, he-he stood up, grabbed a fire poker, and... and... he…” She wipes away her tears knowing that she made a lie. “Yeah, okay, I completely made that up and probably shouldn't have.” Vinyl groans. “Why are you acting like this?” “I just think it's interesting that this mare back in Equestria.” The Cellist snarled. “No, you don't. You think it's suspicious. Just say: suspicious!” Vinyl growled back. “No, I just think it's intriguing-” “No, you don't. You think it's sinister. Just say: sinister.” “I'm just fascinated-” “You're JEALOUS! Just say: jealous!” Octavia sputters, aloof of Vinyl. The DJ huffs and packs up and is ready to leave. “Wait. Where are you going?” Asked the cellist. “To the brony convention in Liechtenstein. Where do you think I'm going?! I'm going to Wooden’s house. So have fun being more jelly than a peanut-butter sandwich!” The said sternly. “Haha, I’m not jealous. Look.” Octavia holds up her hoof. “What's that?” “The needle on my give-a-darn-ometer. NOT moving.” “Ugh.” Vinyl leaves but looks back at Octavia. “Look, you can still come if you want.” “What was that? Sorry. I just wanted to make sure I didn't look like I GAVE a darn.” “I said you can-” Octavia pretends to call someone on her phone. “Hello? Is this the give-a-darn store? Uh, yeah, I'd like to know if you had any more darns left in stock. Yeah, it's for a friend. Oh, you discontinued the line? I see. Oh, you might have some left in the warehouse? Sure. I'll hold. Just a sec. Ah, right. Mm.” ******** Vinyl and Wooden walk through the streets outside of ponyville. “And then he was talking about how the darn mines had closed and that I should've invested in renewable darns and...Whatever. Anyways, is your place very far? 'Cause we've been walking for an hour now.” Began Vinyl. “Oh, yeah, it's right around the corner…” “Good.” “After the beach.” “Right. Um, wait, Equestria got a lake?” “No.” Moments later, Vinyl and Wooden are walking through the desert near an overpass. Vinyl starts panting. “Dude, can we at least make a pit stop? “Oh, but we're nearly there.” Wooden replied. “Ugh. Where?” “Just beyond that pass.” “The overpass?!” “No, that mountain pass.” Vinyl groans. They then are walking on a snowy mountain. “Okay, maybe we need a little break.” The Pegasus admitted. “Oh, thank you, universe!” Vinyl shouted with relief. Wooden sits on a log for a second and gets up. “Ah, much better.” She resumes walking. Vinyl ends up not sitting and lets out a frozen tear. They then walk over a grassy flatland, as Vinyl’s eyelids are letting out a raspberry sound. “What's that sound?” Wooden asked. “I'm crying, but I'm so dehydrated, only air is coming out.” The DJ said in a hoarse voice. In a mysterious forest at night, Vinyl and Wooden are still walking. Vinyl collapses. Vinyl’s voice starts rasping. “I'm not gonna make it, Wooden. You're gonna have to continue without me.” “Vinyl, I'm not leaving you behind.” “I never said leave me behind. I meant you're gonna do the rest off the walking, get some form of wheel-based transportation, and come back to get me.” The unicorn coughs. “Also, I want a hot dog.” “But it's just right there, right before Untario.” Vinyl gets up and speaks in a normal voice. “Wait, are you telling me we're in Maresoda right now?” “Come on. We're right there.” Wooden protested. “NO! FORGET THIS! FORGET YOU! FORGET MARESODA! FORGET EVERYTHING!” Vinyl screamed at the top of her lungs letting out an echo. “Okay, Okay, I'll just wait for you inside, then.” Said Wooden calming her down. Wooden enters her house which reveals to be right in front of them. “Oh, all right, then.” Vinyl said with relief. She enters the house, but is nervous. “Huh. Weird. Looks exactly like your old bedroom.” “Welcome back, Vinyl.” Said Wooden in a mysterious voice. “What the heck is going on here?” Vinyl said looking scared. “You abandoned me, Vinyl. You promised we would stay BFFs forever, but you replaced me.” She throws the DJ pajamas. “Put this on.” “What? But it's for toddlers, it's too small.” “PUT IT ON!” The Pegasus shouted as Vinyl did so. “Now you're going to make up for it, starting right where we left off, and life is going to be one long sleepover.” She plays creepy ominous music “Now, let's play-” But before she can finish, she gets hit by non other than Octavia, who was holding a shovel. “Octavia! What are you doing here?” Said Vinyl. “I knew there was something creepy going on with this guy, so I followed you.” Octavia replied. “'Kay. Why'd you dig a hole, though?” “Oh, um, to bury the body?” Octavia said sheepishly. Vinyl gasps in shock. “Oh my gosh. You were so jealous you were gonna whack this gal!” “Yeah, right. I'm jealous. I'm jealous of Wooden. I'm jealous of her relationship with you. I'm jealous that Wooden will go back to being your BFF, and you'll abandon me.” The cellist said sarcastically. “A-are you still being sarcastic, or-” “Ha! Yeah, sure. I'm being sarcastic.” “So you're being sarcastic about being sarcastic.” The DJ said already knowing the answer. “Yeah, I'm just jealous, basically.” “Aww, well, you shouldn't be. I love you, Octy.” “I love you more, Vi.” “No, I love you more, babe.” Before the pair could hug, Wooden gets up from the floor and stands between. “No, you love me more!” Wooden yelled in an ominous voice. Vinyl and Octavia scream in response and escape Wooden’s house as the Pegasus chases them through the woods. The roommates get behind a branch. “Get behind me!” Vinyl cried. Vinyl and Octavia try to launch the branch toward Wooden but it ends up snapping, propelling the duo backwards, grunting. “She’s coming!” Octavia cried. The pair run up to a cliff and scream as they look down. They look behind them, and Wooden comes closer. “What are we gonna do!” Cried Vinyl. “We got no choice!” Cried Octavia. The two mares held hooves together and jump off the cliff, at the same time, sticking their tongues at Wooden. Once they fall in the river, Wooden checks on their absence, and Vinyl and Octavia try to hit him off with a log, screaming. They hit two rocks and get pinned underneath. “I'm sorry, Octavia, but there can only be one BFF.” Growled the Pegasus as she picks up a rock, and is about to drop it on the cellist. “Yeah, me.” Said a dragon, who happens to be hawk Wooden mentioned earlier. “Wha-oh!” The greenish mare gets knocked out by the rock. “Who-who are you?” Said Vinyl shivering while she and Octavia hug each other. “The name’s Hawk. I was Wooden’s BFF, and now, I'm taking him back.” “Sure. That's cool.” Octavia shivered. Hawk starts carrying Wooden away. “Help, help!” Whispered the Pegasus, looking frightened. The roommates let go of their embrace and push the log off of them. “So... should we go help Wooden, or…” Octavia suggested. “Or not.” Vinyl declined. “Yeah, I mean, it's late.” “We are far from home.” “I’m hungry.” “Well, I saw a really good hot dug truck on the way.” “Where?” “Eh, somewhere near Flyoming.” Vinyl and Octavia started walking through the forest, arms around each other.
Episode 5: Frogs InvasionView OnlineVintavia Scralody Season 4Episode 5: Frogs InvasionAt Canterlot High, Ms. Cheerilee is teaching the class. “Okay, class, tomorrow we're wrapping up our biology studies with a special project. We'll be dissecting…” She pulls down a scroll of a frog and its anatomy. “..frogs!” Her students all exclaim with joy. “Get ready to jump in!” She laughs but gets no reaction; Ms. Cheerilee gets disappointed. “Really? No one?” “Dissecting frogs? That sounds…” Vinyl said eager. Cuts to Vinyl and Octavia’s house were Octavia finishes Vinyl’s sentence. “...Horrible! You can't do that!” Said Octavia worriedly. “They're just frogs, Tavi. What's the big deal?” Said the DJ. Octavia takes Vinyl by the hoof and leads her to their room. Octavia gets out a portable projector. “Watch this little movie about frogs.” Said the cellist as she gives Vinyl the projector. Vinyl cranks the handle on the projector and peeps through the lens. The film is about a little boy having fun on a pond. He gets squirted and it’s revealed to be a frog. The boy then squirts him back and they laugh. The kid then decided to leave home, but the little froggy paddles on his lily pad and makes a sad face to the little boy. The kid then offered the frog to let him live with him. During the day they got to do some activities together like: taking a photo together, taking a bath together, and eating dinner together. At night, the little boy kisses the Froggy Goodnight and goes to sleep, the frog leaps out of his tank and rests himself next to the little boy. The kid winces, notices and smiles as the two of them slumber together. As the film ends, Vinyl is touched and driven to tears. “That was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.” Octavia walks up to Vinyl and gives her a hug, kisses her on the forehead, and stroke her hair. “You see, Vinyl? Frogs are cooler on the outside than they are on the inside. So please, don't dissect them.” “I won't. And neither will anyone else.” Said Vinyl confidently. “What do you mean?” “Octy, I know what we’re gonna do today. We're going on a rescue mission.” The two mares hoof bump. ******** The next day in Canterlot High. “Alright, class, when we return from lunch, we'll leap into our frog dissecting!” Said Ms. Cheerilee making a joke, but still gets no reaction. “Come on! I'm giving you comedy gold here!” The bell rings and the class goes out to lunch. Ms. Cheerilee locks the door and as soon as she leaves, Vinyl pops up from the corner and busts out her phone. “Octavia, where are you?” Octavia taps Vinyl from behind and the DJ turns around. “Oh, there you are Tavi.” “You ready to do this.” Said Octavia confidently. “You know it.” Replied the DJ “Vintavia Scralody!” Cried the two mares before they fall out. They trot and Octavia breaks out her locksmith equipment and grabs one of her keys to open the door to Ms. Cheerilee’s room, but it fails. “We have a problem. It's a surface mounted deadbolt with a tumbler locking mechanism.” Said Octavia observing the lock. “In English, please?” Said Vinyl not understanding Octavia. “We'll have to find another way in.” Said the cellist clearly. They sneak through the vents and come across a shaft. They open it and Octavia ties a rope around her waist while Vinyl holds it to lure her down. She dives in with Vinyl straining a bit from the velocity of the leap and Octavia’s lowers herself to find she's actually in the principal's office. Vinyl gasps. “Cranky Doodle Donkey? Wrong room. Wrong room!” She struggles to pull Octavia back up and the cellist uses a spy claw to pull her up just before Cranky notices. Vinyl gets exhausted from pulling. “Good job, Octavia.” The two hoof bump. Soon, the two mares finally find Ms. Cheerilee’s room under the floor and make it in. “What's up, frog-ays? We're here to rescue you!” Said Vinyl to the frogs in the tank. Just then, the doorknob is rattling, meaning Ms. Cheerilee is coming. The pair look at each other and gulp in fear. Ms. Cheerilee enters the room to find the frogs are gone. Ms. Cheerilee gasps. “My frogs!” She runs to the window. “MR. DOODLE! MR. DOODLE!” She runs out of the room to tell Mr. Doodle and closes the door. Vinyl and Octavia reveal themselves to have been behind her desk instead of having escaped with the frogs. “Whoa. That open window decoy was brilliant.” Said Vinyl sighing with relief. “Thanks Vinyl.” Octavia said with gratitude. The girls then proceed to exit through the window for real. ******** Later Vinyl and Octavia take the frogs to Saddle Lake. “Be free, our amphibian friends! Be free!” Said Octavia, but the frogs don’t listen. Vinyl dumps them out of the tank. “Good luck, frog-ays! Have a nice life!” Said Vinyl. Just as the frogs begin to enjoy their freedom, a flock of birds circles above them. “Uh, you guys might wanna get moving.” Said Vinyl looking a bit scared. Some turtles rise from the water, preparing to snack on the frogs. “Seriously, go!” Exclaimed Octavia. Some snakes are eyeing the amphibian appetizers. “Do you wanna be today's lunch special? MOVE!” Yelled Vinyl but they don't budge. “Why aren't they moving?” Vinyl moaned. “Maybe they don't know how to survive in the wild.” Said Octavia before noticing a snake trying to eat one of them. “HEY, YOU! NOT COOL!” She wrestles the snake and saves the frog. “Vinyl, we can't leave them here.” Vinyl starts gathering them up. “You're right. We'll take them home till we can think of a better plan.” Just then a raccoon arrives with a bib, knife and fork, ready to eat them. Vinyl and Octavia glare at it and throws some rocks at him causing the raccoon to flee away in fear. Vinyl and Octavia grab the tank and head back to their house and up to their room, placing it on their bed. “They'll be safe here. Come on. We gotta go. Lunch hour's almost up.” Said Vinyl. “Good call.” Said Octavia. The two leave their house. ******** Back at Canterlot high, in Ms. Cheerilee’s class, Vinyl and Octavia sit down on their seats and wipe their foreheads in relief. Just then, Cranky Doodle Donkey enters the classroom not looking happy. Cranky walks up to the chalkboard. “Good afternoon, class. Ms. Cheerilee has informed me that some frogs have gone missing.” Vinyl and Octavia sink lower in their desks. “Does anyone know anything about that?” He looks around. “Well, I've been in this racket for quite a while, and I think I know what happened. One of you thought you'd be a hero and rescue the poor creatures, and the frogs would be so grateful they'd put up a statue of you! So...who is the frog hero?” To Vinyl. “Is it you? Ribbit, ribbit?” Vinyl laughs nervously. “Uh...not me, sir. I'm no hero.” “Okay. No one wants to confess. I guess we can just let it slide. NOT! I'll find the frog hero myself by searching each of your houses after school! So get ready. Cranky is coming.” Said Cranky with determination in his eyes. Vinyl and Octavia glance at each other and gulp in panic. The bell rings and the two mares rush out of the school hiding in one of the bushes. “Do you think Cranky knew what we just did?” Asked Octavia worriedly. “Probably not. But we gotta get home and hide those frogs, stat!” Said Vinyl with determination in her eyes as Octavia nods confidently. Vinyl and Octavia began running home, but they stop to notice Cranky in front of them as he is approaching a house. The duo try to use stealth mode to sneak past him. Cranky begins knocking on the Door. “Open up, Lights! Frog inspection!” Vinyl and Octavia eventually make it safely back home. “We'll just hide the frogs in the garage. Easy peasy, Lemon squeezy.” Said Vinyl grinning. As soon as they open the door, they are shocked as to what they are looking at. “Not so Easy peasy, Lemon squeezy.” Said Octavia. The frogs have gotten out and are everywhere in the house. “How'd the frogs get out?” The DJ exclaimed. Vinyl and Octavia start gathering the frogs. Vinyl uses a pool skimmer to gather some up and tosses them in the laundry basket with pillows for safe impact. Octavia gets a snow shovel tied to the height that scoops up any frogs she comes across. Some frogs are put back in the tank. “10 down, 40 to go.” Said Octavia as she takes a breather. Just then Mr. Doodle is pounding at their door. “Scratch! Melody! Open up! Frog inspection!” He called out. Before they open the door, Cranky just barges in. “Good afternoon, girls.” He looks around the living room. “Well, I don't see any frogs here. I guess I'll just be on my way.” Vinyl and Octavia smile at each other relieved. “NOT!” He shouted. As he continues his inspection, the pair notice some frogs nearby while he's not looking. Vinyl yelps in panic and grabs their principals coat. “Let me take your coat.” Said Vinyl before tossing it over the frogs out of Cranky’s view. “Yes, just put that down anywhere, why don't you?” Said Cranky sarcastically. He checks under a sofa cushion which has some gross content beneath and under the sofa itself. Octavia then spots a frog by the window behind the TV and closes the curtain. “Uh...I didn't want the glare to hurt your eyeballs, sir.” The Cellist smiled sheepishly. Just then, Some glass shatters off in the distance. “What was that?” Cranky asked himself. That noise came from some frogs in the kitchen and Vinyl and Octavia pick them up and put them in the fridge. They forgot one and Vinyl grabs it before Cranky enters. “You two seem a bit nervous.” Said the Donkey suspiciously. Vinyl has a frog in her mouth as she talks muffled. “Not at all!” A fly comes whizzing by and the frog grabs it with its tongue. “Mmm. Protein.” Vinyl chuckled. Cranky looks in the pantry and the oven, and just as he's about to check the fridge, Octavia squirts him with a hose connected to the sink. “Sorry, sir. You had some schmutz on you. Here, let me get you a towel.” Said Octavia as she rubs Cranky’s face. While he can't see, Vinyl spits the frog out and tosses it onto the ceiling. Cranky ceases Octavia’s rubbing. “Stop it!” He hears a thud from the distance. “Hmm...maybe I'll go check UPSTAIRS!” The three go upstairs and one frog is on the inside of the wall. A fly comes by and the frog catches it while hitting Cranky face in the process. Vinyl grabs it and hides it behind his back before Cranky notices. Vinyl has some viscous substance on her hoof. “Wet willie! Uh...just trying to lighten the mood.” She chuckled nervously. Cranky looks around and can’t see any frogs. “Well, upstairs looks clear. I need to use your restroom.” Octavia rushes into the restroom and checks the bathroom to find that there are no frogs in there. “I usually do this alone.” Said the Donkey suspiciously. “Oh, right. Sure. Uh, I'm just gonna...check the toilet. Gotta make sure I didn't leave anything in there.” Octavia opens it and finds a frog in there; grabs it before Cranky sees it. “You're good to go!” Octavia leaves the bathroom as Cranky slams it shut. The two mares glanced at each other before they rush downstairs and find two more frogs on the sofa. Vinyl covers them up with the back brace on the sofa. Octavia sees some in the fireplace and pulls the easy chair in front of it to hide them just as Cranky arrives downstairs after taking care of his business. “Well, it appears your house is frog-free, so I'll be on my way.” He said. “Good luck, sir. Keep fighting the good fight.” Said Vinyl confidently. I'll just grab your…” Octavia notices the coat is gone. “..coat?” They look around and find the coat having moved from one spot to another with some lumps under it. “I'll grab my own coat.” Said cranky as he does so. Vinyl and Octavia hold each and gasp and the coat looks fine. “What is wrong with you two?” Cranky asked suspiciously. “Nothing. Drive safe.” Said Octavia who smiles sheepishly. Just as Cranky is about to leave, his coat starts bulging. “What the-” He starts yelling and shaking and finds the frogs in his coat as they hop away. “YOU ARE THE FROG HEROS!” He yelled pointing his hoof and Vinyl and Octavia. The two mares wince at each other and sigh in defeat. ******** Vinyl and Octavia are in their room, gathering up the frogs and putting them back in the tank. “We're sorry. We failed you.” Sighed Octavia. “If only Mr. Doodle could see you the way we do.” Vinyl sighed. “I guess the only thing we can do is keep on watching this movie.” Said Octavia holding the portable projector. Vinyl gasps. “Octavia! You Genius!” Exclaimed Vinyl cheerfully as she hugs Octavia tightly. At Canterlot High, Cranky is now watching the film and has been moved the way Vinyl has. “That was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.” Said Cranky as he and Ms. Cheerilee are both driven to tears. Cheerilee in tears. “Don't hog it, Doodle! I wanna watch it again!” She takes the projector and watches the film again. “See? Frogs are way cooler on the outside.” Said Vinyl. “There is no way we're dissecting them. But what are we going to do with all these frogs?" Asked Cranky. “I’m glad you asked.” Said Octavia Confidently. Some time later, the frogs now have their own little paradise in the tank. “We call it the Frog-ay Fortress.” Said Vinyl. The students all gather to observe with fascination. “Um, what are those two frogs doing?” Asked a Female student curiously. Ms. Cheerilee exclaims in shock and covers the tank with the map of Canada. “CLASS DISMISSED!” ******** Vinyl and Octavia are walking home after school together. “I’m glad that’s over.” Said Vinyl grinning with relief. “Me too, I’m also glad we got off the hook.” Agreed Octavia. Just then, the two mares walk by a Buffet, come back to it and see a poster advertising a new dish added to their menu. “Tonight's special: roasted duck enchiladas?!” They read in unison. The two look at each other and run off with the restaurant's entire shipment of ducks, trying to set them free and going through their animal saving mission once again.
