During lunchtime, Rainbow Dash and Twilight were in the lunch line.
Rainbow Dash: Best... morning... ever!
Twilight giggled.
Twilight: I know, right?
They started walking to their table with lunch trays in their hands.
Rainbow Dash: I can't believe we've held a party in a classroom.
Twilight: I can't believe it either. I'm just surprised we haven't been caught by any of the teachers, otherwise we would've gotten detention by now... probably.
Twilight and Rainbow sat down at the table where their friends were. The girls started giggling when Pinkie Pie started balancing a stack of tater tots on her nose.
Applejack: Looks like you were right about the tater tots after all.
Pinkie launched the tater tots into the air and had them land in her mouth.
Pinkie Pie: Mmm! Delicious!
The Rainbooms had a good laugh after that.
Meanwhile, Principal Celestia opened up her laptop after placing her lunch tray on her desk. She turned her attention to her door when she heard someone knocking.
Celestia: Enter.
Entering Celestia's office was Vice Principal Luna, who was eating an apple.
Celestia: Ah, you're here!
Luna: Indeed, sister. I assume you're ready to watch the next episode?
Celestia: Mm-hmm! Shall we?
Luna happily nodded before closing the door behind her.
Back in the cafeteria, the Rainbooms were finished eating lunch.
Rarity: Whew! That was splendid, darlings.
Fluttershy: I couldn't eat another bite.
Pinkie placed her hands on the table.
Pinkie Pie: Alright, girls. Now that that's over...
She pulled out her laptop.
Pinkie Pie: ...who's ready to watch the next episode?
Pinkie's friends all raised their hands.
The Rainbooms: We are!
Pinkie Pie: Yaaay!
She placed her laptop on the table and opened it up.
Pinkie Pie: Just gimme oooone measly minute.
While the girls were waiting for the next episode to come up, Lyra and Bon Bon walked on by.
Lyra and Bon Bon: Hey, Rainbooms!
Sunset turned to the two girls.
Sunset: Oh, hey girls. What's goin' on?
Lyra: We just wanna let you know how much we love Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Series.
Bon Bon: Yeah! Lyra and I have just finished watching the first twelve episodes.
The two girls turned to each other.
Lyra and Bon Bon: Which, by the way, were totes awesome!
Lyra, Bon Bon, and Sunset giggled.
Sunset: That's quite a coincidence! We've just finished the first twelve episodes too! In fact, we're just about to watch the next episode. Wanna join us?
The two girls happily gasped.
Lyra and Bon Bon: Yeeeaahh!
And with that, everyone gathered around Pinkie Pie.
Pinkie Pie: Alright, everyone. Episode thirteen: Busted Rhymes.
Rarity tapped her chin with her finger.
Rarity: Hmm, strange. Why did LittleKuriboh call it "Busted Rhymes?"
Twilight shrugged.
Twilight: Only one way to find out.
And with one press of a button, the next episode started.
Yami: The following cartoon is based on real events. Some names were changed in order to protect the innocent.
Sunset: Hold on. LittleKuriboh actually changed their names?
The girls all exchanged some looks before shaking their heads with smiles.
All: Naaah!
Inside the cave, Yugi, Joey, and Tristan were trying to push the boulder away while Tea and Bakura watched.
Joey: Hey, why ain't you guys helping?
Tea: Get back to work, slave!
The girls started laughing hysterically. Lyra and Bon Bon even wiped tears from their eyes. Even Celestia and Luna had a good laugh at that.
Twilight: Okay... okay...
Everyone seemed to calm down.
Twilight: The episode just started and we-
Twilight let out a light chuckle while Applejack let out a sigh.
Applejack: Is everyone good now?
The girls chatted in agreement and nodded.
Twilight: Okay... okay... let's move on please. Phew!
They continued on with the episode.
Bakura: I've got a bloody good idea. Let's use my gaydar in order to locate some gay people. They'll be able to help us.
Rainbow Dash: Hehe. Again with the gaydar?
Rarity turned away with her arms folded.
Rarity: Oh please.
Sunset: Even if such a thing exists, I doubt it'll work to find anybody.
For some reason, Lyra and Bon Bon blushed and looked around all nervous and suspicious-like.
Tristan: Why would there be gay people down here?
Joey: Gay people like to hibernate in caves. I saw it on the Discovery Channel.
Tea: Joey, that's bats.
Joey: Bats, gay people, same thing.
Fluttershy: Oh my! I don't think the bats would agree to something like that.
Bakura: It seems my evil ring was pointing to this room.
Yugi and his pals have found an underground dueling field.
Joey: Oh my god! This is unbelievable! Bakura actually did something useful!
The reactors chuckled while Rarity rolled her eyes and shook her head with a smile.
Rarity: Oh, ha ha!
They all soon gasped when "Y.M.C.A." started playing while the Paradox Brothers appeared onscreen.
"It's fun to stay at the YMCA"
Lyra and Bon Bon: O.M.G.!
Bakura: Oh my! I wonder if those are the gay people?
Joey: There is a slight possibility.
The song continued to play during the title sequence.
Rainbow Dash: And the song's still going on.
The nine girls giggled. In Celestia's office, Celestia turned to Luna.
Celestia: Sis, remind me to get this song for the next Fall Formal as well.
Luna: Will do, sister!
The reactors all moved their arms along with the song. They all soon had a nice laugh after that.
After the title sequence was over, Seto Kaiba was seen walking through the forest.
Kaiba: (Thought) My brother's being held hostage, but I don't really feel like running, so I'm just gonna to walk briskly towards Pegasus's castle.
Applejack deadpanned and raised an eyebrow.
Applejack: Really, Kaiba?
Kaiba: (Thought) Besides, he's probably okay.
Mokuba: I can't feel my legs!
Everybody widened their eyes while staring at their screens.
Lyra: This is just... dark.
Fluttershy sadly lowered her head and muttered to herself.
Fluttershy: Poor Mokuba!
Kaiba: (Thought) This picture reminds me of when Mokuba and I were just small children.
A title screen appeared and it said "Jim Henson's Kaiba Babies" featuring Lil' Mokuba and Lil' Seto.
"Kaiba Babies, we make our dreams come truuue"
The reactors awwed after seeing the title screen.
Bon Bon: Look at those boys! Don't they look so adorable?
Pinkie Pie: I know, right? In fact, they're so cute, I just wanna...
She started making pinching gestures with her fingers.
Pinkie Pie: ...pinch their cute wittle cheeks. Oh, and I also wanna pinch the cheeks on their faces too while I'm at it.
The girls all looked surprised while turning to Pinkie Pie. Pinkie started bursting out laughter, followed by everyone else laughing. Sunset Shimmer wiped a tear from her eye before opening her eyes.
Sunset: Okay... okay, girls... let's move on before we lose any more time before lunch is over, alright?
Everybody agreed before Sunset played the video.
Kaiba: (Thought) We lived in an orphanage, because I had fired our parents. It was a very depressing time in my life, since I didn't have any money, so I was unable to screw the rules.
And once again, the phrase "Screw the Rules" has gotten to the reactors and they all burst out laughing.
Luna: I tell you, hahahaha... this LittleKuriboh fellow truly is a piece of work.
Celestia: He sure is, dear sister. Hehehe!
Back in the cafeteria, the girls were beginning to cease the laughter.
Twilight: How are we still not used to this? How?
Rainbow Dash: It's like I said before, Twilight. It's one of those jokes that never stops being funny.
Applejack: Ah'll tell ya one thang, girls! LittleKuriboh sure knows how to keep the laugh train goin'.
Everyone chatted in agreement.
Pinkie Pie: He sure does.
Pinkie Pie played the video.
Kaiba: (Thought) Mokuba was often bullied, and when you're getting picked on by orphans, you know you're a loser.
The girls exchanged some looks while Rarity scoffs.
Rarity: We beg to differ, Seto.
Little Seto: Here's your toy back, Mokuba. That'll be five bucks.
The girls couldn't help but chuckle after Kaiba's line.
Kaiba: (Thought) Whenever we felt slightly less miserable, we would play chess, but since it didn't involve dragons or expensive holograms, I found it extremely boring.
Twilight began thinking about it.
Twilight: Hmm. Chess or any game with creatures and holograms? That's not a bad idea.
Little Mokuba: I love you, big brother!
Little Seto: 'Kay, thanks!
They all had a good laugh after Kaiba's line again.
Kaiba: (Thought) That's odd, my Kaiba senses are tingling.
All: Kaiba senses?!
Celestia: First limey senses and now Kaiba senses? I don't understand why they're even called that.
Luna: Nobody does, it isn't funny.
Kemo: Attention, Duelists! My hair is...
Kaiba elbows Kemo in the stomach.
Kemo: ...being assaulted!
Kaiba then flips Kemo.
Kaiba: Idiot.
The reactors laughed and cheered and applaud for Kaiba's victory over Kemo.
Rainbow Dash: Way to go, Kaiba!
Kaiba: Next time you sneak up on somebody, try keeping your mouth shut.
Kemo: I knew those child-grabbing classes were a waste of money.
Rainbow Dash: It was a stupid idea to begin with.
Para: We are the Brothers Paradox!
Dox: And we love wearing women's frocks!
Everybody was frozen.
All: Huuuh!?
Para: As villains go, we are kinda lame!
Dox: But never mind that, let's play a card game!
They all widened their eyes.
Bon Bon: I think we finally know why this episode's called "Busted Rhymes."
They all chatted and nodded in agreement.
Yami: We have to duel these guys as a team, Joey. That means you do everything I say, you got that?
Joey: Duuuh, okay.
They all let out a good laugh.
Para: We are villains who like to rhyme!
Dox: In fact, we do it all the time!
Applejack: No kiddin'.
Para: You may think it's rather crass...
Dox: But you can stick your cards right up your nose!
The girls perked up.
All: Nose!?
Para: You were supposed to say "ass", brother. I thought we rehearsed this!
Lyra: Not well enough.
Yami: Leave it to Beaver Warrior!
Yami Yugi summons Beaver Warrior.
Para: Wall Shadow! Destroy his Beaver Warrior!
The Wall Shadow monster destroyed Yugi's Beaver Warrior, making Fluttershy gasp.
Fluttershy: That poor beaver!
Joey: Let this be a lesson to ya, Yug. Never, under any circumstances, leave ya beaver exposed.
Yami: You're right, Joey. My beaver was on full display. Next time, I'll take better care of my beaver.
Tea: I didn't know Yugi had a beaver.
The girls stared at the screen while Fluttershy looked confused.
Fluttershy: Um, they are talking about Yugi's Beaver Warrior... right?
Rainbow Dash: Yeeeaahh! Suurrre!
Pinkie Pie: Uh, yep!
The rest muttered in agreement, except for Applejack. Knowing that she represents honesty like her pony counterpart, she thought it would be best to stay silent.
Celestia: Okay... didn't see that one coming.
Luna: Now I'm really glad none of our students are aware of this show.
They all continued the episode.
Kemo: Attention, Duelists! My hair has security clearance to get through this door!
Kaiba: Why do you keep saying, "Attention, Duelists?" I'm the only other person here.
Kemo: Hey, shut up! It's what I do, okay?
They've all had a little chuckle after that. They also enjoyed the next scene where Dark Magician used the Mystic Box to destroy Jirai Gumo.
"Everyone loves Magical Trevor"
"'Cause the tricks that he does are ever so clever"
They all clapped for that scene.
Rarity: That was marvelous, darlings!
Twilight: I should pick that for my ringtone.
Para: You have tricked us with your magic box!
Dox: We invite you to suck on our co-
Bakura: Cor, blimey!
Lyra and Bon Bon sputtered before everyone started laughing like crazy. Even Celestia and Luna were laughing on the floor.
Rainbow Dash: Nice one, Bakura!
While everybody was laughing, Rarity secretly turned to her imaginary boyfriend.
Rarity: Thank you for saving us from such an awkward moment, Bakura.
Bakura: The pleasure was all mine, Rarity.
Before imaginary Bakura disappeared, he kissed her on the cheek while Rarity closed her eyes and blushed.
Bakura: That was a smashing maneuver! Good show, chaps!
Tristan: Stop being so British.
Rarity widened her eyes while everybody laughed. She quietly laughed while rubbing the back of her head.
Rarity: Heh... hehehe... heh...
Kaiba: So this is about the 178th time my brother's been kidnapped. Thanks for listening, by the way; it feels good to get this stuff off my chest.
Pinkie Pie: Say whaaaatt!?
Fluttershy: 178 times!?
Sunset: It is nearly impossible to be kidnapped that many times in your life.
Lyra: Impossible or not, Kaiba really needs to take better care of his brother... at least in the abridged version.
Kemo: Attention, Duelist! My hair is definitely not leading you into a trap!
Rainbow Dash: For his sake, he better be telling the truth.
Applejack: Ah know perfectly well he's not. Trust me.
Kaiba grabs Kemo by the collar.
Kaiba: Listen, if you say one more thing about your hair, I'm gonna shave it off.
Kemo: You wouldn't have the guts.
Kaiba: Try me, big boy.
Everybody chuckled.
Bon Bon: That's telling him, Kaiba.
Para: Against our Gate Guardian, you stand no chance!
Dox: I'm not wearing any underpants!
The reactors all widened their eyes.
Luna: Well, that's something you don't hear everyday.
Para: Is that true, brother, or are you just rhyming?
Dox: I didn't want to throw off our timing... but it is true.
Everyone felt disgusted.
Celestia: And now I've heard it all.
Luna turned to Celestia.
Luna: Sister, do you have tater tots for me?
Celestia held up a napkin with three tater tots.
Celestia: Got 'em right here, sister. 1, 2, 3!
The two sisters realized they were rhyming and giggled.
Yami: Joey, it's time for a surprise attack!
Joey: No worries, Yug. I got ya back.
Lyra: How many minutes do you think are left?
Bon Bon: Just one more minute, which all due respect.
Yami: Hang on a second, are we rhyming too?
Joey: Don't ask me, I ain't got a clue.
Rainbow Dash: Aw great, now we're stuck in this rhyming mess.
Fluttershy: What can we say?
Twilight: It is quite a bless.
Yami: This is like something out of Dr. Seuss!
Tea: I can't stop staring at Yugi's caboose!
Applejack: Ah can't believe she admitted that!
Pinkie Pie: It's a shame I didn't even bring me a snack.
Bakura: Everyone seems to have gone all rhymey!
Tristan: Shut the Hell up, you stupid limey!
Rarity: All of this rhyming is getting contagious.
Sunset: "Truly, truly, truly outrageous"
The girls all had a big laugh after all of the rhyming that they did, even wiping tears of joy from their eyes.
Sunset: Whoo!
After calming down, they continued the episode.
Kaiba: So you wanna catch a movie later, or...
Kemo: Rejected!
Kemo activated the alarm underneath his foot.
Kaiba: The alarm! What the Hell have you done?
Kemo: That's for threatening my hair!
Kaiba: I'll never forgive you for this...
Kaiba started running.
Kaiba: ...whoever you are.
They all chuckled.
Sunset: He doesn't even know his name? He could've asked for it.
Yami: I activate a spell that allows our monsters to trade places, which would be completely useless in any other situation.
The Dark Magician swap places with the Black Skull Dragon.
Joey: Our phasers are at the ready, captain!
Yami: Make it so, number one!
The Black Skull Dragon destroyed the Gate Guardian.
The girls had a good laugh after that.
Twilight: I'm pretty sure that's the wrong sound effects.
Tea: Alright, they won!
Tristan: Now they've got all ten star chips!
Bakura: And you know what that means!
Tea, Bakura, and Tristan: This crappy tournament is almost over!
The girls couldn't help but laugh again.
Rarity: After everything that's happened, I suppose it's okay to call the tournament... "that."
Para: It seems that we ran out of luck!
Dox: It's just a card game, who gives a fu-
Mokuba: Big brother!
Once again, the reactors all started laughing like crazy.
Rainbow Dash: Thank you, Mokuba!
Mokuba: You came to rescue me again! What the Hell took you so long?
Luna: Well, Kaiba was indeed walking rather than running.
Pegasus: Hello, Kaiba-boy. I've been expecting you.
Kaiba: Pegasus! I'm gonna make you pay for stealing my cards!
Mokuba: And for kidnapping me, right Seto?
Kaiba: Shut up, Mokuba. Mommy and daddy are talking.
Everyone looked surprised.
Lyra and Bon Bon: Wooow!
Pegasus: I'm afraid your princess is in another castle, Kaiba-boy.
He used his Millennium Eye to trap Mokuba's soul into a card.
Mokuba: Big brother...
Everyone gasped in shock.
Kaiba: What have you done now?
Pegasus: I've turned Mokuba into a monster card, and he doesn't have any attack or defense points!
Kaiba: You sick bastard! That makes him even more worthless than Kuriboh!
Fluttershy looked surprised while everyone else chuckled. Kuriboh's spirit appeared next to Fluttershy.
Kuriboh: Kuri! Kuri!
Fluttershy: (Thought) Um, it's nothing, Kuriboh. Nothing at all.
Kuriboh scrunched his eyebrows.
Kuriboh: Kuriiii!
Kuriboh's spirit disappeared.
Kaiba: Please, I'll do anything! Just don't release that card to the general public!
Pegasus: In that case, I want you to have a rematch with Yugi-boy! And this time, you have to win!
Kaiba: I'll do it! But only to avenge the death of my little brother.
Mokuba: But I'm not dead, Seto!
Kaiba: Shut up, Mokuba.
Everyone stared at their screens while the title of the show appeared as the Muppet Babies theme played.
[never leave your beaver unattended]
The girls didn't say a word.
Fluttershy: Hmm. Maybe I should get a pet beaver.
They turned to Fluttershy and then Rainbow Dash patted her on her shoulder.
Rainbow Dash: Yeah, you do that!
Chibi video game versions of Mai, Yugi, and Joey appeared onscreen, and they were celebrating while the battle victory theme from Final Fantasy VI plays.
The reactors all had a little laugh before the episode was over.
Rarity: My, that was... a pretty interesting episode. Don't you all agree?
They all chatted in agreement before Lyra and Bon Bon stood up.
Bon Bon: Well, see you later, Rainbooms. We hope to-
She looked at Lyra's neck.
Bon Bon: Um, Lyra?
Lyra: Hm?
Bon Bon: Where's your necklace?
Lyra: What?
Lyra looked down and realized she wasn't wearing her necklace.
Lyra: Where did it-
They found it a few feet away on the floor.
Lyra: Oh, there it is. It must've fell off.
Bon Bon: I'll go get it.
Bon Bon went over to Lyra's necklace on the floor, picked it up, and walked back to Lyra.
Bon Bon: Here's your necklace back, Lyra. That'll be five bucks.
Lyra and the Rainbooms widened their eyes. Bon Bon started smiling and snickering.
Bon Bon: Gotcha!
Lyra, Bon Bon, and the Rainbooms all had a good laugh. Not too far from them, Trixie Lulamoon ate some of her mashed potatoes with a fork. Afterwards, Trixie opened one eye, raised her eyebrow, and witnessed the laughter.
Trixie: Hmm. (Thought) Just what is it that those Rainbooms are laughing at?
