Vinyl Scratch and Octavia have a relationship forged in a shared love of music, but their styles couldn't be more different. Vinyl likes it loud and wild, and Octavia likes it classy and refined. The Grand Galloping Gala is the biggest event of the year, both a party and a showcase for the upper class's finest music.

Vinyl can't take her eyes off of Shining Armor, Canterlot's hottest new stallion after becoming Prince by marriage. Sure, he's married, but that only makes the chase even more appetizing for Vinyl.

And when Octavia finds herself alone at the party, she might find some surprising camaraderie in Princess Cadance.

One way or another, it's sure to be a wild night...
