A/N: Let's put it this way. It's going to test Alister Allstar and Rarity relationship as a couple. Quite recently I watched Bye Bye Birdy and I feel that Rarity and Alister are Hugo Ames and Kim MacAfee in this reference. Watch the Movie and see what I mean.


Ponyville, Center Hall

We see the Mane and Heroic six show up and see dozens of Ponies in Ponyville.

Rainbow Dash: Wow! I can't believe how many ponies showed up!

Pinkie Pie: I can! I mean, finding out who the Ponyville Days pony of ceremonies is is a pretty big deal!

Then Seamus Keegan sees Granny Smith was in the committee.

Seamus Keegan: I didn't know Granny Smith was on the selection committee.

Applejack: Of course she is. Ponyville Days celebrates the founding of Ponyville, and she was right there.

Seamus Keegan: Well, I'll be, is there anything else about the Apple Family that I should know? All the good things only.

Pinkie Pie: I'm glad the committee didn't automatically pick me so everypony gets a chance to see how great being me actually is! Even though the festival's basically a party and the pony of ceremonies gets to organize the whole thing! So it'd totally make sense if they did pick me.

Then the ponies around Pinkie Pie then got annoyed with her non-stop talking and 'shushed' her

Ponies: Shhh!

[microphone feedback]

Mayor Mare: Citizens of Ponyville, this year's applicants were all exceptional, but there can only be one Ponyville Days pony of ceremonies. And that pony is...

As the Committee then talk Pinkie Pie then inhale a lot of air which turned her into a balloon as Lucky held her hoof so she doesn't fly away.

We see Granny Smith handing Mayor Mare a letter as they have chosen who to be in charge of the ceremony.

Mayor Mare: Rarity!

Ponies: [cheering]

Applejack: Whoo-ee! All right, Rarity!

Alister Allstar: [Whistling]

Rainbow Dash: Yeah! Whoo-oo-oo! [laughs]

Twilight Sparkle: Congratulations, Rarity! Do you know what you're gonna do?

Spike: [straining noises]

Suddenly we see Spike wheeling in a small scale of Ponyville as she has an idea on what she is going to do with the Ceremony.

Rarity: Oh, I might have a few ideas.


Carousel Boutique

We see Mane six except Rarity and the Heroic Six except for Alister Allstar waiting to see what Rarity has ideas for.

Pinkie Pie: I'm so excited for the festival, I can hardly stand up straight!

Lucky Heart: Me as well!

As Lucky and Pinkie prove the two fall face forward on the ground from to much excitement much to Rainbow Dash and Knight Rider annoyance as they eye roll at the two knuckleheads.

Twilight Sparkle: Me too. I'm glad Rarity was picked. I know she'll add a touch of elegance to the whole thing!

Applejack: Probably more than a touch!

Then the lights turn off as we see Spike and Alister Allstar then go through the curtain wearing gentlecolt attire as Alister then cranks the speaker and we hear ballroom music as Spike takes out flash cards for him to read to the audience.

Spike: [clears throat] [reading] This year's Ponyville Days festival, designed by Rarity, will feature various high-class events such as... [Flips poster.] a silent cider auction and tasting...

Main characters except Alister and Rarity: Ooooh!

Spike: [Flips Poster.] ...A Ponyville gala in town square...

Main characters except Alister and Rarity: Ahhhh!

Spike: ...And, of course, a Ponyville fashion show.

Main characters except Alister and Rarity: Ooooh!

Spike: [Continues to read.] This year's Ponyville Days festival pony of ceremonies creates shimmering couture of her own design.

And we see Alister then open the curtains as we see Rarity in a beautiful new dress created by her truly.

Rarity: And the theme is... "Small Town Chic"!

Twilight Sparkle: Wow, Rarity. You really have put a lot of effort into this.

Applejack: I'll say.

Fluttershy: Oh, I think it's going to be magical.

Rarity: [gasps] Do you really think so?

Pinkie Pie: Are you kidding? I can't wait!

Rarity: Oh, that's such a relief. But of course, I couldn't possibly do it all on my own. The festival is in three days!

Alister Allstar: Which is why Rarity decided to show you all this and get your opinion? So what do you say everypony? Can you help out Rarity?

Everypony: Yeah!

Rainbow Dash: Pinkie Pie, Knight Rider, Lucky Heart and I can hang lights and decorations in the town square!

Applejack: And Seamus and I can get Sweet Apple Acres all ready for the cider tastin'.

Rarity: Oh, that's just perfect! And now, Twilight, if you, Red, Travis, and Fluttershy wouldn't mind helping with the fashion show...

Twilight Sparkle: Of course!

Fluttershy: I'd be honored.

Red Feynix: Count us in.

Travis Traveller: We'll get right on it.

Rarity: I can focus on the thing I'm worried about most of all.

Main characters except Rarity: What?

Rarity: Creating a Ponyville Days festival fantastic enough to impress... Trenderhoof!

Then every one in the room was confused by that even Alister Allstar as he was trying to figure out what Rarity meant by him.

Alister Allstar: Trenderhoof?

Applejack: Uh, who's Trenderhoof?

Alister Allstar: Trenderhoof is a mediocre travel writer in Equestria.

This made Rarity actually get mad at Alister.

Rarity: [Angry.] WHAT? TRENDERHOOF IS NOT A MEDIOCRE WRITER!

This made Rarity get real mad at Alister as he shrinks down from Rarity gaze and walks away from them annoyed.

Rarity: Trenderhoof is only the most amazing, handsomest travel writer to have ever traveled or written!

Rarity then shows Trenderhoof photographs as Alister then got into a angry glare at Rarity interest in him as he always is.

Rarity: Before Las Pegasus became an Equestria travel destination, he wrote about it! Before the culinary revolution in Trottingham, he discovered it! He knows what's going to be hot even before it's tepid! [giggles]

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed.] If you like him so much why don't you marry him.

Everyone then sees Alister was in his jealousy mood when Rarity noticed this she immediately put the poster down.

Rarity: Oh, Alister. Don't you think I don't love you, It's just that Trenderhoof is an amazing Travel Writer and a bit handsome but your my special somepony not even he could take me away from you.

Alister Allstar: [Relieved.] Thanks. For a moment there I thought you had a crush.

Rarity: Oh, Alister, "crush" doesn't even begin to describe it. He's practically divine. I can't believe he's coming! [Laughs Hysterically as she looks at the poster of Trenderhoof.]

Then everyone looks at Alister as he then shows steam and his head turned red as he was now in jealousy mode.

Knight Rider: [Whispers to everyone except Rarity and Alister.] This is going to be interesting.


Ponyville Train Station

The Train was arriving on time as we see Alister and Rarity together as Rarity looks extremely happy while Alister was extremely annoyed.

Rarity: Thank you ever so much for joining me, Alister. I don't think I could have met Trenderhoof on my own.

Alister Allstar: It's no problem. Besides he's a professional Travel writer. I always wanted to meet one.

We see ponies exit the train as Rarity continues being a fan girl with a crush wondering where he is.

Rarity: Is that him? Is he here? Alister, is he there?

Alister Allstar: Uhh... I'm not sure.

Rarity: You don't suppose he's decided not to come? Alister, I don't see him! What if he doesn't arrive? The whole festival will be a disaster! ALISTER, WHERE IS HE?!

As everyone looks at Rarity being crazy Alister and Rarity look around before regaining her calm.

Rarity: [clears throat] Sorry.

Alister Allstar: Rarity, you have to get a hold of yourself. I mean, you haven't even met him yet!

Then we see Trenderhoof himself as he is a unicorn with Brilliant violet eyes and Mane is a Pale yellow with streak of white and Coat is Moderate gamboge and is wearing a jacket over him. Alister and Rarity see him as Alister have a normal look and Rarity then have a fan girl look as bubbles of hearts fly all over Rarity.

As Rarity looks in closer on Trenderhoof there is Hearts all around his face as he smiles.

Rarity: [gasps]

Rarity then hides behind Alister as he rolls his eyes as he knows what is happening.

Alister Allstar: What's wrong?

Rarity: Shh! [hushed, quickly] It's him, it's him, is it him? Is it him? It's him, he's here, he's here!

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed.] Well, go up and talk to him if you want to.

Rarity: [unintelligible screeching] I can't!

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed.] Oh, for goodness sake! Fine I'll talk to him!

Rarity: No! I really want to talk to him... but I can't seem to move my legs!

Alister then gets even more annoyed as he then used his magic and forced Rarity to go talk to Trenderhoof.

Rarity: [nervous laughing] Uh, hi– [clears throat] Hello, Mr. Trenderhoof. I am Rarity, and I have been chosen as pony of ceremonies for the Ponyville Days festival. [nervous laughing]

Trenderhoof: Please, call me 'Trend'.

Suddenly Rarity then blushed and then falls over in love as Alister then gets even more annoyed with both Rarity and Trenderhoof as he feels like he's the second choice in love and Trend here is the first one she truly loves.

Rarity: [Confused.] What happened?

Alister Allstar: You fell. Are you ok?

Rarity: I'm fine.

Trenderhoof: Excuse me? I was wondering if I could see the festivities?

Rarity then wraps a foreleg around his left foreleg as she takes him into Ponyville.

Rarity: [Laughs Nervously.] Of course, Alister darling I can take it from here, while I show Trend [Giggles.] the preparations for the ceremony.

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed.] Sure. I hope you two enjoy yourselves!

As Alister then flys off before looking back to see Rarity having a good time with Trenderhoof. It then burns a fire of jealous rage as he talks to himself.

Alister Allstar: [To Himself.] Alister, I know you are usually a peaceful Stallion, [Angry.] but TRENDERHOOF gotta go!


Ponyville Hall

We see Rarity is giving the tour to Trend as Alister follows right behind them in disguise as he wants to see what is going to happen next.

Rarity: And over here will be the climax of the festival, the Ponyville Days gala! Music, dancing! [laughs nervously] And of course a locally sourced menu of delicious treats.

Trenderhoof: Reminds me of the "Spring Fling meets Manehattan Wedding" I wrote about in Gallop & Prance.

Rarity: Exactly! I, I can't even describe how much your work has influenced me!

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed.] Gahh. I can't believe she likes him what does he have I don't? Perfect hair? A sweater jacket? Glasses? I don't see the appeal to him.


Sweet Apple Acres

As we finally get to the final thing on the list we see Alister continues to follow Rarity in the trees.

Rarity: And finally, Sweet Apple Acres. Ponyville's core, heh-heh, so to speak, where our quaint little hamlet began.

Trenderhoof: Oh, breathtaking! I've heard about it of course, but to see it in vérité, to stand on the soil of a working farm... you can really feel the authenticity.

Rarity: Oh, yes, uh, they, they really do grow apples here.

Trenderhoof: Thank you, Rarity. Thank you for bringing me here. This farm is truly something special.

Rarity: Oh, I had planned to transform it into an elegant country inn for the festival... but now I see just how special it is au naturel.

Trenderhoof: Au naturel indeed.

Alister annoyed sighs at that as he finally had enough and decided to head home when Seamus was carrying in a load of apples and notes Alister angry face.

Seamus Keegan: Woah there friend. Looks like you're jealous.

Alister Allstar: Jealous is not what I'm feeling right now. I'm feeling a RAGE in my heart as Rarity is getting chummy with Travel Writer boy there! I feel like I was second choice in love from Rarity!

As Alister vents out his frustration in Rarity showing more attention to Trenderhoof and wanting to kiss him, Alister was feeling used by Rarity. As Seamus and Alister look at Trenderhoof and Rarity as the two were locked into each others eyes. Trenderhoof looks beyond Rarity and found Applejack.

Trenderhoof: Who... is... that?

As Seamus, Alister, and Rarity look back and see Applejack.

Seamus Keegan: Applejack?

Rarity: Who? Applejack?

Trenderhoof then stares at her again as Applejack plays with her hair and apples fall all around her as sweat glistening off her as Rarity then tries to get his attention.

Rarity: Ahem! Why are you staring at her like that?

Trenderhoof: I've seen a lot in my travels, but I've never beheld such beauty. Applejack... the pony of my dreams...

Alister then is relieved of worry as Trenderhoof isn't interested in Rarity.

Alister Allstar: Phew. Well, I'll be sleeping well tonight. Trenderhoof isn't interested in Rarity, but actually interested in Applejack! This is wonderful news don't you think so Seamus?

Seamus doesn't say anything as he is now Jealous of Trenderhoof looking at his girlfriend.

Seamus Keegan: [Annoyed.] Excuse me. I gotta go find a shovel.

As Seamus leaves to go find a shovel Alister breathe in a sigh of relief but Rarity on the other hoof was actually hurt and started to run back home crying.

Alister Allstar: Rarity?


Carousel Boutique

As Alister comes in the door looking for Rarity as then a door opens up and we see Spike is here as well.

Spike: Alister? Nice to see you here have you seen Rarity, we're supposed to go tasting cider, I even brought my own cup.

Alister Allstar: No I'm just looking for her as well.

Then the two hear crying as then they follow the water that was coming from behind the curtains and they see Rarity crying in front of the Trenderhoof Shrine.

Spike: Rarity, I brought my cider-tasting cup. Are you ready to go try the samples?

Rarity: [sobbing throughout] What's the point?!

Spike: Rarity, what's wrong?

She looks at Alister and Spike still crying as Alister couldn't believe that she'd be crying over Trenderhoof this much.

Rarity: [quietly] Nothing.

Spike: Is it something I said?

Alister Allstar: Is this about Trenderhoof?

Rarity: Yes! [Continues to Sob.] [quietly] He doesn't like me.

Spike: What?

Rarity: [quietly] He doesn't like me.

Alister Allstar: Oh, for Celestia Sake! Rarity get over Trenderhoof! It's clear he's not that into you!

Rarity: [Yelling.] YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! I NEVER HAD ANYPONY NOT NOTICE ME BEFORE! HE DOESN'T LIKE ME BECAUSE HE HAS A CRUSH ON APPLEJACK EVEN THOUGH I'VE HAD A CRUSH ON HIM SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME AND IT'S NOT FAIR!

As the two pick themselves up from the ground and Alister has about just enough of Rarity and Trenderhoof.

Spike: Trenderhoof doesn't like you? That's ridiculous!

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed.] Yeah. Ridiculous. [To himself.] It's ridiculous that Rarity is going over the top in love for a Pony that isn't into her.

Rarity: [Continues to Cry.] Oh, Spike, Alister, how could you ever know what it's like to be totally obsessed with a pony only to find out they're obsessed with somepony else?

Then Spike and Alister then look at each other and totally understand what Rarity said as they try to get her attention so many times.

Rarity: I mean, what could Applejack possibly have that I don't?!

Alister and Spike: I dunno.

As Spike and Alister actually for the first time are working together on this Trenderhoof as Rarity try to discover what Trenderhoof find's amazing about Applejack.


In the Middle of Ponyville

We see Applejack handle apples as then we see Trenderhoof right behind her trying to get her to fall in love with him but doesn't realize that she's already with somepony else.

Trenderhoof: You know, I have such respect for the work ethic of Earth ponies.

Applejack: Uh, gee, thanks. Granny Smith always said, "Pick an apple a day and keep trouble away."

Trenderhoof: How many varieties of apples do you think there are?

Applejack: Uh, on the farm or in all of Equestria? 'Cause—

Then we see Trenderhoof then pick up an apple.

Trenderhoof: I once had an apple so rare, they thought it was extinct. I ate four of them.

As Trenderhoof was about to bite a Apple Seamus then grabs it and Trenderhoof then bites his teeth hard and felt his teeth in pain as Seamus Keegan was there putting the Apple in his basket.

Seamus Keegan: Really? You ate four rare apples? Is that a fact?

Trenderhoof: That's my thing. I take the mundane [Points to the old] , the simple [Points to the middle class Ponies] , the unappreciated [Points to Derpy] , and I make it relatable.

Seamus Keegan: Well, I hope you can relate to Ponyville.

Then Seamus then takes Applejack away from Trenderhoof as he then backpedals in front of Applejack as Seamus was getting annoyed with him.

Trenderhoof: Me too. But enough about me. I wanna know about you! What do apples mean to Applejack?

Seamus was getting as he then stands in front of Applejack.

Seamus: Look, I'm glad you're interested in Ponyville and all, but we're kinda busy with the Apple family's chores. And if Applejack and I can't get 'em done, there won't be a Ponyville Days festival for you to write about.

???: Well, that will never do!

As Seamus Keegan and Applejack see Rarity but she is wearing a bedazzled Cowgirl attire much to Applejack and Seamus shock.

Applejack: Rarity, what are you wearin'?

Rarity: What, this old thing?

Applejack: Aren't you too busy plannin' the festival to keep makin' new outfits for it?

Rarity: I am. But the thought of hauling apples inspired me, and I just couldn't stop myself!

Seamus Keegan and Applejack: Really?

Rarity: If there's one thing I love, it's hauling apples!

As Rarity flips her mane in Trenderhoof direction but is more focused on Applejack as Seamus facehoved himself and Applejack rolls her eyes.

Trenderhoof: [dreamily] I'm growing fond of it myself.

Applejack and Seamus then look at the two as then they speak to each other under their breaths.

Applejack: [under her breath to Seamus Keegan] Maybe those two should try it sometime.

Seamus Keegan: [Under his breath to Applejack] You don't say.

Trenderhoof: I'm feeling a tad inspired.

Seamus Keegan: Great. You can be inspired—

Trenderhoof: [Reciting Poetry]

Without farm life, there'd be such disparity

Seamus Keegan: [Annoyed.] And now he's doing poetry.

Trenderhoof: These thoughts I think with great clarity

Apples high to the sky

She's the one of my eye

That fruit-hauling pony named... Applejack!

Rarity: [mule bray]

Rarity brays like a mule as she then gets mad at how Trenderhoof was looking and reciting poetry at Applejack instead of her.


Sweet Apple Acres

We see Spike and Alister Allstar looking at Rarity as she is trying to understand Farm life so she can impress Trenderhoof.

Spike: Rarity, why do you want to plow a field?

Rarity: Is it me, or could this use a splash of color? And maybe a wash!

Spike: Don't we need to check on the gala decorations?

Alister Allstar: Yeah, something which we need to do in order for Trenderhoof to like it?

Rarity: Yes, yes, of course, but Trend obviously has a thing for farm life. If I can't convince him that I'm just as much of a farm hoof as Applejack, I'll never get him interested in the festival.

Spike: [Annoyed.] The festival. Right.

As Spike and Alister then look at each other as they both know what she really wants as Alister couldn't believe that Rarity is this interested in Trenderhoof then the Special somepony in front of her.

Alister Allstar: Rarity I know that you care for the festival.

Then Rarity stops him as she puts a hoof under his chin and gave him a kiss on the lips and hugged Spike.

Rarity: And I do appreciate your help ever so much. I couldn't do a thing without you two, Alister and you Spikey-poo.

Then the two blushed as they are completely under her hoof.

Alister Allstar: [Blushes.] Oh, Rarity, of course we'll help!

Spike: Yeah, that's what friends are for!

Rarity: Right, so. [whips reins]

We then see Rarity on top of the plow as she has no idea on how this works.

Rarity: Come on! [grunts] Farm... thing! [sighs] Oh, how does Applejack do it?

???: Well, it would help if the harness was on right.

Then she hears Applejack talking to Rarity about farming as Seamus and Trenderhoof was right behind Applejack.

Seamus Keegan: What are you doin'?

Rarity: I am simply lending a hoof with the chores, which I love doing ever so much.

As Applejack sees Trenderhoof she has an idea why she is doing this.

Applejack: Well if you're still interested after the festival I can teach you all about it. [Puts on the harness.] But right now, I need to get the plowin' done, if you don't mind.

Suddenly Applejack pulled the plow with ease as Rarity fell to the ground as Trenderhoof caught her

Rarity: [Dreamily.] Not at all.

Alister then rolls his eyes and shakes his head and Trenderhoof looks at Applejack and drops Rarity as Seamus and Trenderhoof and Spike look at Applejack.

Seamus Keegan: [Awe.] Just look at her go!

Spike: She makes it look so easy.

Trenderhoof: [dreamily] I know. Isn't she fantastic?

Rarity then gets sad but not as sad and annoyed as Alister is. Later we see Seamus isn't with the group as he has other chores to do and we see Applejack is hard at work collecting apples as Trenderhoof then claps his hooves together in his excitement.

Rarity and Alister come into view to see Applejack work as Trend was happy with seeing Applejack work in fact being around her was happy enough for him.

Rarity: I really don't see what the fuss is all about.

As Rarity taps a tree that is full of apply as Applejack then warns her.

Applejack: Now, Rarity, you be careful. If you don't get the buckin' just right, you could sprain a hoof.

Rarity: I am perfectly familiar with the apple-bucking process, thank you very much. But while you seem to rely on raw power, I believe a certain amount of style is required. [Moves in close to Trend.] It's really more of a dance, if you ask me.

Alister Allstar: [To himself and under his breath.] Could've fooled me.

We then see Rarity do a elegant dance as she was making happy humming noises as she hit the tree and we see only one apple in her basket.

Rarity: Et voilà!

Applejack: Well, your way is definitely long on style.

Rarity: Thank you.

Applejack: Now, if you'll all excuse me, I have some more chores to do.

We see Trenderhoof follow Applejack but she doesn't want him to follow her as she isn't interested in him at all.

Applejack: Inside!

As she moves away from them we see Applejack go inside a hen house as we see a sign that has a nest with a egg on it as we hear chickens.

Trenderhoof: Rarity, can I ask you something?

Rarity: Oh, why, Trend, you can ask me anything.

Alister Allstar: [Annoyed sigh.] Unbelievable.

Trenderhoof: I've been meaning to ask for a while, and frankly I'm sort of embarrassed. Rarity...

Then Alister then showed worry on his face as he then sweats a bit as he believes that Trend is going to ask Rarity to a date when he's currently going out with her.

Trenderhoof: Do you think... Applejack would be my date for the festival?

Then Alister relieves a sigh and Rarity then gets mad at him.

Rarity: Why don't you go ask her yourself?! Hmph!

As Rarity leaves with dignified grace as she then pulls on Alister with magic as he is forced to follow her.

As we see Applejack looking out of the chicken pen we see Seamus Keegan with an Applecart towed in from the chicken house as he then waved his hoof out to signal the coast was clear as Applejack then dives in the apples to hide from Trend as Seamus Keegan passes Trend he makes a quick run gently and quickly to the barn as he opens it up and closes quickly as Applejack was relieved to have Trenderhoof not follow her.

Seamus Keegan: You know for a Travel writer he seems to be more focused on farming then on the actual festival?

Applejack: You're telling me. Whew! Well, that was close.

???: If you've come to apologize, there's really no need.

As the two see Rarity annoyed with Applejack and Alister was annoyed with Rarity.

Alister Allstar: Rarity! That isn't very nice!

Rarity: [Annoyed] Hmph!

Alister Allstar: Im sorry for my soon to be ex-girlfriend's behavior she has no idea what she does.

Rarity: [Gasps!] How dare you!

Alister Allstar: How dare Me? How dare you?

Applejack and Seamus then stumbled onto another problem as both Rarity and Alister are now arguing with each other.

Applejack: What are you talkin' about?

Rarity: Let's dispense with the charade, shall we?

Alister Allstar: Finally something we can agree on. I don't want you to follow Trenderhoof anymore!

Rarity: Excuse me, but you can't tell me who I can or can't see. Besides it's all Applejack's fault!

Seamus Keegan: Hey! Don't bring her into your problems!

Applejack: Listen, I know you really want Trend to like you—

Rarity: And he does! [Glares at Applejack.] Despite somepony's best efforts!

Alister Allstar: Best efforts? Are you so smitten with Trenderhoof that you forget who your currently dating?

As Rarity looks down before looking away from Alister and said in a calm voice to leave.

Rarity: You know, I feel that maybe you should go Alister Allstar.

Alister noted this calm and cold demeanor and decided to leave in the same attitude as Rarity.

Alister Allstar: Fine. Goodbye Rarity. I hope Trenderhoof is everything you wanted.

Rarity then has a shocked look on her face as did Big Mac and Applejack, and Seamus Keegan as Rarity and Alister Allstar Broke up as Seamus Keegan then looks at the downtrodden Alister out of the Barn and headed elsewhere.

Seamus Keegan: I'm going to go make sure Alister is ok. Talk to Rarity.

Applejack: Sure thing.

Seamus then leaves to go check on Alister Allstar.

Rarity was also sad, it was if she had lost something in her heart but then pushed it aside as she then blows up on Applejack.

Rarity: This is all your fault! If Trenderhoof was paying attention to me then I wouldn't be in this position!

Applejack: I swear I don't know why he's payin' so much attention to me. And I don't know anypony who's that interested in farmin'. Not even me!

Rarity: Well, maybe it's time Trend met a real country pony.

Rarity then pulls on a cart full of tools for farming as Applejack then tries to get her back on the festival.

Applejack: Shouldn't you be workin' on the festival instead of comin' up with new ways to impress Trend?

Rarity: Oh, I'm sure you'd love that. Well, I have a new vision for the festival, [in country accent] and it's gonna be more country than the whole Apple family put together!

Applejack and Big Mac were now scared by Rarity new personality seeing how she was tasked with the festival is stressful, now she's trying to impress Trenderhoof in noticing her, and to top it all off she argued with her boyfriend and they broke up, all the stress is making her act different.


Carousel Boutique

We see the Heroic six together except for Seamus Keegan and Alister Allstar and the Mane six except for Applejack as they wonder why they needed to be there in the Boutique.

Fluttershy: Um, isn't it a little late to be changing the theme?

We then see Alister Allstar all mopey as he then was dragged into the boutique by Seamus.

Red Feynix: What happened to him?

Alister Allstar: [Sighs Depressingly.] What's the point of living without my precious Rarity by my side.

Everyone then looks at Seamus as he gives them a simple explanation.

Seamus Keegan: Rarity and Alister Broke up and now Alister is depressed.

Alister then falls to the ground depressed.

Fluttershy: Oh, my. How did it happen?

Seamus Keegan: It's Trenderhoof. Every since he came into town Rarity went nuts on her crush and wanted to go out with Trend and now Alister and Rarity broke up and I have no idea how to get him to stop this nonsense!

Alister Allstar: Life seemed so cold as this floor I think I'll move out and find a nice patch of grass and lay in it forever until death's cold embrace claims me.

Seamus Keegan: See! He's freaking me out!

Then Applejack comes in as everyone wants to know what's happening.

Twilight Sparkle: Applejack, what's going on?

Applejack: [Worried] I'm too scared to guess.

Then the lights went out and we hear Rarity takin' in a Country Girl accent then her normal one.

Rarity: [country accent] Firstly, I just want to thank you all for comin', and second, I know y'all will all adore my new festival theme!

We then see Spike playing a Banjo as the curtains reveal Rarity in a more country girl then before.

Rarity: [country accent] "Simple Ways"!

As everyone then looks at her, Alister then laughs at her before Applejack follows next as the two laugh and everyone else follows along much to Rarity anger.

Rarity: [country accent throughout] Well? What's so funny?

Applejack: Rarity, that is the silliest getup I have ever seen!

Fluttershy: It is a little funny.

Rarity: Fun-nay?

Alister Allstar: [laughing] Rarity, you aren't serious, are you?

Rarity: [normal voice] Well of course I'm serious– [clears throat] [back in country accent] Why wouldn't I be?

Alister Allstar: Because you would never dress like that. You like fashion and high society and fancy things like me.

Rarity: And I can like plowin' fields and haulin' apples just as much as Applejack can.

Alister Allstar: But you don't!

Rarity: How do you know what I like?

Alister Allstar: Because I know you.

Rarity: Well [Push Alister aside] , maybe you don't know me as well as you think.

Alister Allstar: And I suppose it's just a coincidence that Trenderhoof seemed so interested in country life, too?

As Rarity stops she looks at Alister still mad at him for the breakup.

Rarity: I don't know what you're gittin' at! Besides, didn't we break up all those years ago.

Alister Allstar: It was just today!

Rarity: It still means you were a terrible boyfriend!

Alister Allstar then became angry as he then wanted to show how Rarity was acting for these three days now.

Alister Allstar: Well then, I guess I'll just have to show you what a good boyfriend can do!

Rarity: Be my guest! Now, if you all will excuse me, I have a hootenanny of a festival to put on.

Alister Allstar: [growls] Friendship Meeting at our house Immediately!

Then Alister then disappears in a golden flash as then the The Heroic Six and Mane six except Rarity then disappears in a flash as well.


The Heroic Six House

We then see the Heroic Six and Mane Six except Rarity arrive as Alister then sits down.

Alister Allstar: Alright Rarity needs to get back to her old self immediately!

Twilight Sparkle: I agree. Rarity isn't being herself and she wants to change the theme this late all for Trenderhoof?

Lucky and Pinkie brought in snacks as they ate a huge sandwich with their big cartoonish mouths.

Red Feynix: Having a crush on a pony isn't exactly a crime but with the Rarity been acting is a bit something Spike would do?

Seamus Keegan: Yeah. I mean how do we stop Rarity from making the worst mistake of her life when she doesn't realize she's making it?

As everyone then starts to think Alister then has an idea.

Alister Allstar: I have an idea. Everyone follow me, I want to show you something.

Alister then goes to his room as there is dozens of clothing pieces on the ground it kinda looks like Rarity shop when making a dress.

Applejack: So what is it you wanted us to see?

Alister Allstar: This. [Takes off cover.]

As Alister take off the cover to a dress stand we see it's a beautiful dress that Alister made.

Twilight Sparkle: Why Alister, it's beautiful but how is it going to snap Rarity out of it?

Alister Allstar: Well, all we need is a Country Mare to wear this dress. What do you say... Applejack?

Applejack: Huh?

Seamus Keegan: What are you planning?

Alister Allstar: Something to get Rarity back on track, so Applejack here's what we need to do...

As everyone then listened in to what Alister plan is we go back and see how Rarity is doing.


Sweet Apple Acres

We see Spike still wearing his straw hat as we see some fillies and Colts sanding in a line as we see the Cutie Mark Crusaders along with them as Rarity has an idea for them to wear.

Rarity: [country accent throughout] Now, to be a model in the Simple Ways fashion show, you might think "simple" means "less is more". Well, that just ain't so. If you want to be real simple, more is more.

Then we see Rarity using simple items such as boots, straw hat and plants and she jumbled them up together as the goals there are disturbed by what Rarity put on Apple Bloom as she has no idea what she is doing anymore. She is literally self sabotaging herself for the festival from Trenderhoof, to Alister Allstar breakup she is trying to punish herself for everything that happened to her and she doesn't even know it.

Then Alister then drops a piece of paper next to Spike and he picks it up and looks around before clipping it in his clipboard.

Rarity: Now, y'all go off and make yourselves look just like that. [to Spike] Who's our next model for the fashion show?

Spike: Um... Apple... Jewel?

Rarity: Who the hay is that?

???: That would be my new inspiration.

Then Spike and Rarity look on stage and see Alister as he has a smirk on his face and Rarity then glares at him before he turns the record player and we hear tango music as the lights go off and we see the spotlight being controlled by Seamus Keegan as the curtain opens and we see Applejack in a beautiful dress as her hair is all up with a braid in it as she poses gracefully. Alister was impressed with how quickly Applejack got all the right strut posses as Applejack looks up to see Seamus practically drooling all over her outfit as she smiles at that and walks in stage and makes it a show for him before swishing her dress away and shake her flank as Seamus then had hearts all around his head as it seems that Alister to well as he then dreamily sighs.

Rarity was shocked to see Applejack being this high classed as she was supposed to be a Country Pony not a High society one.

Rarity: [To Alister] Is this some kind of joke?

Alister Allstar: Why no Rarity. She's my new muse in the world and she loves it Right... Applejewel?

Applejack: [upper-class accent throughout] Why of course Alister, I don't know why Rarity, would make you think it was a joke?

Rarity: [normal voice] Because you would never wear an ensemble like that. You like plowing fields and hauling apples—

Applejack: And I can like fashion just as much.

Alister Allstar: It's true. I was shocked to hear that Applejack wanted to be a star and now I gave it to her.

Rarity: [back in country accent] But she don't like it!

Alister Allstar: Well, maybe you do not know her as well as you think.

Rarity: Fine. But I got a whole festival to plan, so if you're goin' to start modelin', just get on with it!

As Alister looks at Rarity angry before realizing she's still in there Alister looks at Applejack and nods and she nods back understanding the plan they made at the house.

Applejack: Life is a festival, and you should celebrate it by looking just like me! Because I'm a trend-setting fashionista!

We then see Seamus come in with a camera and take a few pictures of Applejack as she poses for each of them especially the last one for Seamus as she blows a kiss on it. This made Rarity so confused as she then retorted back at Applejack.

Rarity: [normal voice] You're a trend-setting fashionista?! Why, that is the most ridiculous thing I've ever– I mean... [back in country accent] good for you. I, on the other hoof, couldn't care less how I look, long as I get the chores done. [mule bray]

Applejack: Oh, is that so?

Rarity: Yes, indeedy-doodle!

Applejack: [gasp] Not me! My mane needs to be perfectly coiffed at all times.

Rarity: Well, my mane is full of dust and split ends.

Applejack: My hooves are so polished, you can see your reflection in them.

Rarity: My hooves are cracked and dry from working in the fields!

Applejack: I'm so fashion-forward.

Rarity: I wear droopy drawers!

Applejack: I smell like rosebuds.

Rarity: I LOVE BEING COVERED IN MUD!

It was clear Rarity was cracking as she then jumps in a mud pit and we see a piece of mud land on Applejack and it was enough for Rarity to return to normal.

Rarity: [normal voice] Goodness! Your couture! Ooh, it's bad.

Rarity then looks at her hooves to see how muddy they are as she yells at anypony to help her clean her hooves.

Rarity: Will somepony bring me a towel to wipe this repulsive filth from my hooves?!

Alister Allstar: [Laughs] Welcome back Rarity!

Applejack: [normal voice] [Giggles] There's the Rarity I know!

Seamus Keegan: Finally! I thought this was going to be permanent.

Alister Allstar: Rarity, I know having a crush isn't bad but changing who you are for somepony else who's interested in other things such as farming? Isn't being true to yourself, I rather you be true to yourself then be some other pony.

Rarity took in a moment to what Alister was saying and realized he was right she was changing into a different pony, she didn't even like farming and she was mean to Applejack and Alister Allstar as she feels really bad about how awful she treated her boyfriend and best friend.

Rarity: Oh, Applejack, I'm sorry I said all those things. You're a true friend who probably knows me better than I know myself. Alister, I'm so sorry for focusing on Trenderhoof, I was so caught up in making him my Dream boyfriend that I forgot my real boyfriend. You're really the greatest boyfriend anypony can ask for. [Regrets her actions] I just wish I didn't say all those things about you. You deserve better than me, now I understand if—

Suddenly Rarity was shocked at what happened next as Alister then dipped Rarity and kissed her on the lips as he deepens the kiss and Rarity then wraps her forelegs around Alister as she returned those feels to him.

Alister Allstar: Frankly my dear, I don't give a darn.

Then everyone then smiles as Seamus and Applejack hoof bump each other and then back at Rarity and Alister Kissing again.

Rarity: But I thought?

Alister Allstar: Thought what? Thought that I would hate you? No, I know about crushes more then most and I can get jealous but I won't let you jeopardize your career over a crush.

Rarity was so shocked that Alister wouldn't let her her career down hill because he cares enough for her to make sure she was happy even though she was a bit of a jerk.

Alister Allstar: But, seriously though, why in Equestria are you wearing that getup?

Rarity: I honestly, I don't know what I was thinking wearing this ridiculous outfit.

Applejack: [Looks at her own dress.] I kinda know how you feel.

Rarity: Oh, but you all were just trying to help me see how silly I was being. And you were right. [sighs] Besides, that gown looks just gorgeous on you. I wish I hadn't ruined it.

Applejack: Thanks! It's nice, ain't it?

Rarity: It's magnificent! Wherever did you get it?

Applejack: Oh, it's, uh, Alisters.

Rarity: Really?

Alister Allstar: Yep. I was working on this in in secret so I could give to you after the festival but I guess it's out in the open now.

Rarity then was shocked as she then grabs Spike and shakes him all muddy like.

Rarity: I'll need three gallons of boiling water and one ounce of detergent, stat!

Spike then runs away as he passed a droopy draw stallion as he looks very familiar.

???: [Clears throat.]

As everyone there then looks at the pony in question they couldn't believe it was Trenderhoof.

Seamus Keegan: Trenderhoof?! What are you... wearing?

Trenderhoof: I'm moving to Ponyville! Being the most interesting pony in Equestria is exhausting. I want to leave my exotic, exciting life behind and live on a farm!

Seamus Keegan, Alister Allstar, Applejack and Rarity: What?!

Applejack: Well, that's real nice, but I sure hope you weren't thinkin' of Sweet Apple Acres.

Trenderhoof: Oh.

Applejack: Uh, look, you're a fine pony, but, uh, well, I'm, uh... with somepony else.

Trenderhoof: Oh.

Seamus Keegan: Hey don't worry I'm sure there is somepony out there for you.

Trenderhoof: Really?

Alister Allstar: Yes! You don't have to change who you are just to fit in with them.

Rarity: Yes, what Everypony is trying to say here is that there's something unappealing about a pony who'd change themselves so much just to impress somepony else. If somepony doesn't like you for who you are, it's their loss.

Trenderhoof: Well, this is awkward.

Rarity: Not at all. In fact, I think I know just how you feel.

Alister Allstar: Well, now that is all said and done why don't we all actually get the festival done.

Seamus Keegan: Yeah!

Applejack: I can agree with that! What do you think, Rarity? Is it too late to go back to "Small Town Chic"?

Rarity: Not if I can help it!


Ponyville Town Hall

We now see a poster with ponies enjoying cider and drinking it in long drinking glasses and enjoying the party as Rarity had actually finished it, and it was looking good as Alister looks at poster and checks it off as good as everything is good.

Rarity: [Narrating] Organizing the Ponyville Day celebration was one of the hardest things I've ever done. But I learned an important lesson.

We then see Seamus and Applejack wearing ponyville day attire as Applejack was still wearing the Alister Allstar dress as Seamus was wearing an tuxedo that had a red bow tie as they enjoy each other's company before we see Trenderhoof as he asks for Granny Smith's hoof and both Seamus and Applejack then started to dance as well.

Real friends will like you for who you are, and changing yourself to impress them is no way to make new ones.

We then see Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle onstage in their dresses until Rarity comes out and then Alister comes upstage and gives her a rose bouquet before Rarity then dips Alister and then both kiss deeply as we exit with a heart theme exit.

And when you're as fabulous as I am, it's practically a crime!


A/N: I liked the "Frankly my dear, I don't give a..." speech it is a good reference in this.
