Synopsis[]

It's Winter Wishday! Can the Mane 5 celebrate their holiday traditions and still make it back in time to exchange gifts under the Wishing Star for Sunny?

Plot[]

In Maretime Bay, everyponykind is celebrating Winter Wishday cheer, happily enjoying the snow and sharing hot cocoa. At the Crystal Brighthouse, the Mane 5 gather to share their own cocoa treat, and Sunny shares her excitement to exchange gifts under the Wishing Star.

As the group quickly discovers, everypony has conflicting holiday obligations: Hitch was invited to his Grandma Figgy's house, Izzy must place her ornament on the Wishing Tree in Bridlewood on the last night of Wishiehoof, and Pipp and Zipp are performing in the Zephyr Heights Royal Wishentine Carousel Concert. Despite these conflicts, the Mane 5 is determined to fit everypony's plans into the holidays.

To make it happen, particularly during a snowfall which is unusual in Maretime Bay, Izzy and Zipp present the broken tram car Izzy found in Have You Seen This Dragon?, which they have since been attempting to turn into a flying vehicle. When the Mane 5 express their excitement for all their holiday plans, Sunny's lantern reacts to their friendship magic and transforms the tram car into a flying vehicle, with the lantern acting as the power source. Izzy proceeds to dub it: the "Mare Stream."

The next morning, the Mane 5 and Sparky board the Mare Stream and they sing To Grandmare's House We Go while Zipp pilots them to Grandma Figgy's house. When they arrive, Grandma Figgy welcomes them in, meanwhile, Hitch becomes extremely particular about all their Winter Wishday traditions. Quite the opposite, Grandma Figgy embraces change, such as by encouraging Izzy to put 4 marshmallows in the latter's hot cocoa instead of the usual 3 (as Hitch said previously).

As Figgy shares photos from Hitch's foalhood and tells their stories to the Mane 5, she mentions it has never before snowed in Maretime Bay, and reveals her favourite foalhood storybook: Fantastical Flurrytales of Wishiehoof. Zipp becomes curious, noticing something peculiar with the book, and asks Figgy to borrow it. The ponies then build gingerbread houses together, though soon after, they leave for their next destination at Sunny's urging.

When the Mane 5 arrive in Bridlewood, they find it also covered in snow, which Izzy reveals is also highly unusual. Unicorns place hoofmade ornaments on the Wishing Tree in the the town square and exchange the traditional greeting "Frostyshivers." When Izzy spots Alphabittle, she challenges him to a game of charades, losing her ornament. However -much to everypony's surprise- Izzy reveals she made two ornaments, and hangs the remaining one on the Wishing Tree.

The unicorns then complete the final Crystal Lighting Ceremony. Afterwards, Sunny rushes the Mane 5 back to the Mare Stream so they can fly to Zephyr Heights. On the way, they encounter air turbulence, as the snowstorm has now intensified to the point where it threatens to cause the Mare Stream to crash. The ponies then combine their magic through Sunny's lantern, and they land safely.

In Zephyr Heights, Pipp and Zipp go shopping around the city with Queen Haven. When their mother informs her daughters that she altered the concert to last twice as long as usual, the princesses are severely frustrated, but they bear it for their mother's sake. Meanwhile, Sunny, Izzy, and Hitch enjoy the perks of the VIP tickets Pipp provided them, though they end up mistaking prop presents for real presents, which Zoom and Thunder cover by pretending that air from clouds is a traditional Pegasus Wishentine gift.

Later, the concert begins and Pipp and Zipp sing Joyous Wishentine. The concert audience enjoys the show at the beginning, but because of the extended runtime, most of the audience falls into a bored stupor. The second they are off-stage, Pipp and Zipp exchange a hurried goodbye with Queen Haven and rush back to the Mare Stream with their friends so they can get back to Maretime Bay in time to see the Wishing Star.

Unfortunately, the snowstorm has now escalated to a blizzard, completely burying the Mare Stream. Unable to find the vehicle, Sunny worries that the Mane 5 will miss the Wishing Star altogether, and Izzy says "Frostyshivers" in dismay, causing the snowstorm to intensify upon Zipp. Izzy then expresses her wish to find the Mare stream in despair, and Sunny's lantern reacts to Izzy's wish and activates the Mare Stream, freeing it from the snow.

Aboard the Mare Stream, Zipp finally works out what is causing the blizzard, and why it is snowing in locations that do not normally see snow. With the help of Grandma Figgy's book, Zipp explains to her friends that "Frostyshivers" is an ancient unicorn spell which causes snow, and now that magic has returned to Equestria, the unicorns are inadvertently casting the spell, believing it to be a simple greeting. The ponies then return to Bridlewood to inform the unicorns of their discovery. Under Izzy's lead, the unicorns adopt the greeting "Warm Wishiehoof," which functions as a counterspell to the blizzard, causing the snow to melt and the weather to warm.

Successful in their last endeavour, the Mane 5 return to the Crystal Brighthouse just in time to see the Wishing Star streak across the sky. Unfortunately, everypony realizes that, due to their holiday activities running long, they had no time to get each other Wishday gifts. However, Sunny remarks that their friendship and the experiences they all shared together are all they need.

As the Mane 5 admire the Wishing Star, the Unity Crystals react to the ponies' friendship and projects their Cutie marks across the sky. The special ends with the Mane 5 playing board games, and Izzy remembers her last minute gift of nimbustratuses, much to the amusement of the whole group.
