My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

Ah, found them!

Gesundhoof.

Why, thank you, Applejack.

I still can't believe it's been almost 100 moons

since our last family reunion.

Oh, I remember it like it was yesterday.

Well, you have been talking about it pretty much every day since then.

Apple Bloom, how are them RSVPs coming along?

Who's showing their muzzle at the reunion?

Everypony!

Everypony? Feathers on a goat.

Are you sure?

Well, I got RSVPs from

Apples from Yonderhill, Hollow Shades,

Galloping Gorge, Foal Mountains,

Apples from Fillydelphia, Tall Tale Town,

and all the Apples from Appleloosa.

Oh, and how could I forget?

Manehattan! Babs is coming.

I get to see my favorite cousin!

I think we're gonna need a bigger cider trough.

Season 3 | Episode 8 Apple Family Reunion

Looks like the family's grown tenfold since the last reunion.

I'm gonna be busier than a worm in a rotten tomato

trying to get everything ready.

I could always help out.

- Me too! - Eeyup.

Oh, I sure would appreciate that.

Granny's a little rustier in the giddyap

since the last time the Apples all got together.

You may be a tad old, Granny,

but you're as feisty and full of spark as ever.

Who you calling old?

I-- I just meant,

why don't you let me take over putting the reunion together this time around?

Then all you'll need to worry about is enjoying yourself.

All right, young 'un.

You got yourself a deal. You are in charge.

I won't let you down, Granny.

You just tell me what the reunion needs, and I'll take care of the rest.

I'll do better than tell you what the reunion will need.

I'll show ya!

We've been hosting these things at Sweet Apple Acres every 100 moons

since we first planted roots here in Ponyville.

Hey, who's that?

That'd be your great great Auntie Applesauce

when she was just about your age.

Now she used to go by another name,

but everypony started calling her Applesauce

after half her teeth fell out when she was making apple jam.

Yeah. Never did find them teeth in all those jars.

Hey, that's you, Granny!

Sure is.

Apple family's been working on that same old quilt

since our first reunion.

I can do it!

Oh, fingle-fangle!

Well, nopony told me I actually had to knot the end of the thread!

Okay, so I'll need to get new quilting materials.

Fabric, needles, thread.

You've really been working on the same quilt since the first reunion?

Surely have.

I don't think we're ever gonna finish that doggone thing.

Hey, what's going on here?

Well, you know us Apples enjoy a good fritter.

Hot, hot, hot!

Hey, where'd all them apple fritters go?

And, who are you, little one?

I'm Applejack. More apple fritter?

That's how we figured out your sister had the appetite

of a full-grown stallion.

Better get twice as much honey and flour, then,

50 more buckets of apples, more oil, wood for the fire.

Now, stick an apple in my mouth and roast my rump!

This one sure brings back memories.

You know how Babs is your favorite cousin?

Well, Apple Rose is mine.

The two of us entered the seven-legged race every reunion.

We're gonna win this one, cousin.

You bet your hot diggity derriere we are!

Come on, cousin, speed it on up!

Never won a single one of them races.

Races. We'll need cloth ties, a finish line.

Not much to a seven-legged race.

And of course we can't forget to take the big family photo.

We always snapped a photo in front of the barn

at the end of every reunion.

It lets us see how our family's grown.

Photo in front of the barn, got it.

You sure have some great memories of these reunions, don't you?

Indeedy, and I'm looking forward to making more at this one.

Oh, I'm sure everypony is, and I do mean everypony.

We got the whole family together this time around.

Who knows if they'll all be able to make the next one?

That's true!

Busy as everypony's lives are getting these days,

chances are pretty slim we'll be this lucky next time around.

Don't worry, Granny,

I'm gonna make sure this is the most memorable reunion

we've ever had.

I better get started. I've got some planning to do.

Oh, hootenanny, would you look what your second cousin

is wearing on her head.

Apple Bloom, what are you doing up?

I was gonna ask you the same thing.

I can't sleep.

My gears are turning in my head about this reunion.

Yeah, I can't wait to see my cousin Babs.

We're gonna do so many fun things together.

Fun? That's just the beginning of it.

Granny Smith handed me the reins of this reunion,

and I'm gonna make the most of it.

Apple Bloom, I've got so many things planned,

you won't even have a minute's rest!

Trust me, little sis.

This reunion I'm putting together is gonna be worth the wait.

Rise and shine! We don't have much time!

Don't forget the glitter!

- Think that'll do it! - And just in time too.

They're here!

Apple Rose!

Oh, this is more exciting than when it rained frogs!

Howdy, y'all!

And welcome to the Apple Family Reunion!

My name's Applejack,

and I just wanted to let y'all know that I got a real big day planned for you.

We're gonna start off with an obstacle course for the young 'uns

and some fritter making and quilting for the not-so-young 'uns.

And there's lots more to come after that.

Hope y'all enjoy it!

Where is she?

- Babs! - Coz!

I know it's hasn't been that long since we've seen each other but--

- It felt like forever! - It felt like forever!

I can't wait to tell you about my new school!

I can't wait to hear all about it!

Jeepers, where do I start? Okay, so first day--

Babs! So glad you could come.

What am I, gonna miss out on spending time with my favorite cousin?

Forget about it!

Why don't you two head over to the obstacle course?

We kinda want to catch up a little bit first.

Don't you worry.

There'll be plenty of time for family bonding

while you're racing against your other cousins!

All righty, ponies, ready to have some fun?

Wow, is that the finish line?!

It's like a mile away or something!

Actually, that's just the marker

where you go on to the next leg of the race.

- There's more? - Much more. Trust me.

I have put together something you are never gonna forget!

After the seven-legged race,

you're gonna want to hurry up and head over here

where you'll be bobbing for apples.

Then you'll run around these trees 50 times

until you're real good and dizzy.

Then you'll jump these big wooden hurdles,

and then there's the final leg

where you'll balance plates on your head while saying,

"pappy pony picked a pluck of pickly pluffnuggets"

over and over and over again.

The last pony standing wins.

Seriously?

Seriously. Come on, y'all, let's start making some memories.

On your mark, get set, go!

Looking good, everypony.

Better go check on the quilt.

How long you had those new chompers, Auntie Applesauce?

A lady never reveals the age of her teeth.

Don't you roll your eyes at me, Miss Apple Rose.

I imagine you two think I have forgotten

what you did to my parasol six reunions ago!

We were just using it to help break open that pinata!

Applejack, delightful to see you.

Are you gonna join us in some quilting?

Sorry, Auntie Applesauce, I am busy, busy, busy.

Y'all should get started though.

We couldn't find our rocking chairs.

I got rid of them to make room for these.
