Synopsis[]
The Mane 6 get regressed into baby foals and cause chaos for Alphabittle in the Night Market, while Opaline sees this as an opportunity for revenge.
Plot[]
The episode starts with the Mane 6 and Alphabittle walking through the Breezie Night Market when they come across some glitter that turns them into foals. They run around the market getting into all sorts of antics and Alphabittle rounds them up. Opaline sees them as foals on social media and heads for the market to take their cutie marks. Alphabittle tries to think of a way to change them back to normal when he sees Onyx selling tea. He takes the stand and makes a special tea to change the Mane 6 back to normal. They refuse at first, due to the bad smell, but Alphabittle puts in bendy straws to entice them. When putting in Misty's straw, he recalls the times they spent when Misty really was a filly. Later, Opaline arrives for the Mane 6, but they have taken off in the Mare Stream. Onyx offers her some tea, but Opaline refuses and steals her cutie mark sending the ponies in a panic. She then decides that Sunny would be her next target.

- The glitter that turns everypony into foals is the same one that turns Sunny, Hitch and Izzy in "Making a Foal of Me", as Pipp is able to recognize it and its effect.
- Alphabittle is showed to still trying to make up for the time he was away from Misty, but this time being less intense than he was back in "Father of the Bridlewood".
