Starlight Glimmer is troubled by the recent decision to free Cozy Glow from her stone prison; a decision of which she herself was in favour. An impromptu visit from the Princess of Friendship suddenly sees Starlight aiding in the reformation of the manipulative filly, who has been refusing to speak to anyone about the identity, or location, of her parental guardians.

So just how is Starlight supposed to find success, when it's clear Cozy hates her as much as she hates anypony?
