Ethan and Athena were having their honeymoon in Ponyville. Athena was in her true form because aliens are welcome. While they were checking out free samples at the market, they found a pear stand with an elderly pony. As they introduced themselves, the old pony greeted, "I'm Grand Pear"
A pony said that he use to be from Ponyville before he opened his famous pear jam store in Vanhoover.
After they took some samples of the cakes with pear jams on them, they got a jar for free.
During the day, they danced to some country singers, churned butter, and enjoyed some root beer.
At the apple stand, they ran into the Apple family. Mykie showed them the pear jam, but they weren't thrilled about it.
"Pear Jam?" Applejack asked in horror.
"Is there a problem?" Athena asked.
"There's been a big feud with the apples and pears." Applejack explained.
They didn't know who to turn to for this situation, Except for Granny Smith's cousin, "Goldie Delicious" who's a family historian. She was visiting Ponyville for a film festival, "We should check that out later." Ethan said to his new wife.
They found Goldie knitting some mittens. They told them about Grand Pear and she knew it was the right time to tell them about the feud between the Apples and Pears.
"Years ago in Ponyville, there were 2 farms, "Sweet Apple Acres" and "Pear Pit Farms" she explained. "They were always at each other. Trying to figure out who's the better farmer. The only members of the families that ever got along were Bright Macintosh and Pear Butter. They fell in love in a buttercup patch. Granny Smith told her son that if you hold a buttercup under your chin, it'll glow. Pear Butter was the only one who was able to get it right. In an act of affection, he called her, "Buttercup"
"Bright Mac and Buttercup" Applejack questioned, "That's our parent's names."
"Buttercup was just a nickname your father gave your mother, her given name was, "Pear Butter"" Goldie Delicious answered.
"Are you Saying our Mother is a Pear?" Applejack asked.
