Synopsis[]
Misty has another crack at trying to steal Sparky for Opaline.
Plot[]
The episode starts with Zipp crash-landing the Mare Stream by the Crystal Brighthouse. Sunny has them hurry so they can see the Wishing Star. Unbeknownst to them, Misty is spying on them, in an attempt to catch Sparky while admiring their hats, much to Opaline's disgust. She even calls their holidays pointless, to which Misty pretends to agree. The Mane 5, Sparky, and Cloudpuff watch the Wishing Star in the sky. The magic from their Cutie Marks and the Crystal Brighthouse collide with it and form a rainbow ring in the sky. Misty is amazed, but Opaline becomes furious, only craving the magic and the power displayed. She forces Misty to catch Sparky to restore her powers to max strength.
To enact her plan, Misty disguises herself as a giant present which Izzy brings in while the others are opening gifts. That night, when the ponies are sleeping in the living room, Misty breaks out, reluctant to steal from the ponies who were so nice to her, but determined to get Sparky to get a cutie mark.
She entices Sparky with a donut which he sleepwalks to. However, when she tries to drop a net on him, he turns it into a bunch of cupcakes with his fire breath. She then tries to trap him in a box with a line of sandwiches, but Sparky eats the stick holding the trap up. Enraged, she chases after him while he's sleepwalking, but loses track of him. However, she hears something approach Izzy's crafting corner and catches it, before returning to Opaline.
Meanwhile, Opaline is singing a song to the tune of "Jingle Bells" wearing a festive hat, when Misty walks in, to which she denies and hides the hat. She then sees the bag and enthusiastically opens it, only to find that Misty had caught Cloudpuff instead. She angrily berates Misty for her failure and has her get Cloudpuff out.
Later, Izzy finds a present and opens it to find Cloudpuff. At first, she wonders how he got in there, but brushes it off and heads back inside with the dog.
