- The Cutie Mark Crusaders abuse their mentorship with Twilight to gain more popularity.
- In recent weeks, Twilight Sparkle has been devoting some weekly time to helping Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo develop some skills. Applebloom is working on mixing potions, Sweetie Belle on using her unicorn magic, and Scootaloo with working on skills related to putting things together.
At school, the girls grow exasperated on how Diamond Tiara seems so popular for doing relatively nothing. When Diamond claims the girls don't know anyone famous, Sweetie Belle claims that they are friends with "Princess" Twilight, causing Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon to request that they come along to the girl's next "Twilight Time" session.
Of the three girls, Sweetie Belle claims that bringing the them along would be a good idea, as they will also be required to learn something. With this in mind, Diamond and Silver come along on the girl's next trip. The two act excited to be in Twilight's presence, but unlike what Sweetie Belle thought, are not asked to work on or learn a skill.
Shortly after this, Diamond and Silver tell the other kids in school, and are eager to join in on "Twilight Time" too. Applebloom and Scootaloo claim they do not want to bring more of their classmates to Twilight's, but Sweetie Belle has another idea.
Sweetie Belle invites Twilight to have a meal at a restaurant, and informs the other classmates that a few can be there to view her...but grows upset when all of them hide nearby, peeking in through the windows as Twilight has lunch with the girls.
However, when Twilight sees the other young ponies crowding around the windows, she goes outside and is quickly mobbed by them. However, Twilight takes their excitedness well, signing a few autographs, before flying off.
Needless to say, the three girls are now even more popular. A little colt named Pipsqueak invites them to the opening of his lemonade stand (with the promise of free lemonade for a week!), and Diamond Tiara invites the girls to her place for an exclusive pool party (aka noone else is allowed except the girls, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon).
However, when the girls attempt to leave for Twilight Time, Diamond, Silver, and the other ponies demand to come along too, causing the girls to attempt to outrun them...only to have several beat them to Twilight's front door.
However, Twilight simply assumes the other kids are eager to learn just as the three girls are. However, when Pip chimes up that he wants to be like the girls, and be friends with a famous Princess so others will do things for him, Twilight grows upset.
Sweetie Belle claims they really did want their time to be useful with Twilight, to which she asks them to prove this, by showing how they've been practicing their lessons while they were away during the week.
Instead, the girls attempt to take apart and fix a scooter, turn an apple into an apple tree, and levitate a broom. However, each of the attempts fails, and Twilight dismisses everyone from the library.
The three girls apologize for misusing their time with Twilight, and claim they'll try to continue learning without her. Before they go, Scootaloo manages to fix the scooter, Applebloom makes a seedling blossom into a flower, and Sweetie Belle uses her magic to pluck the bud from the plant, and put it in Twilight's mane.
This gesture causes Twilight to give the girls a second chance, and from this point on, the girls use their time wisely, and their skills continue to develop. However, they wear disguises when leaving Twilight's, to prevent the other kids from seeing them.
