Synopsis[]
Ponies of Maretime Bay celebrates the Carnival of Maretime Bay, with Pipp as the Carnival queen.
Plot[]
The Mane 5, along with Sparky, are dressing up for the Carnival in Maretime Bay, where Pipp is honored as the Carnival Queen. However, Misty was not aware of the event. Luckily, the magic of the Crystal Brighthouse creates a magic costume for her.
Upon receiving her official fruit crown at the Crystal Brighthouse, Pipp realizes it's excessively large and too heavy. To address this issue, Misty and Izzy ingeniously comes up with a design using recyclable materials, allowing Pipp to wear and move around with the crown comfortably.
At the festival, Pipp becomes the center of attention with her oversized fruit crown. However, a Carnival tradition involves attendees showering the Carnival Queen with fruit for good luck throughout the year. This causes Pipp's crown to grow even larger and heavier, leading her to collapse.
Disheartened, Pipp's friends come to the rescue, combining their cutie mark magic to magically levitate the crown, making it virtually weightless on Pipp's head. Empowered with newfound confidence, Pipp serenades the crowd as fireworks illuminate the festival.
