Rainbow Dash: Oh, nothing. Just getting my dreams crushed.

Twilight Sparkle: Uh... read any good books lately?

Rainbow Dash: [sighs] Just history books. I'd tell you what they were about, but my brain is as dry as a rock.

Rose Light: Speaking of rocks, did you know Pinkie Pie grew up on a rock farm? [short nervous laugh]

Rainbow Dash: Maybe I'll go work there as I have no other plans for the rest of my life.

Twilight Sparkle: Oh, come on now, Rainbow. You can't give up on your dream!

Rainbow Dash: Seems my dream has given up on me. Maybe I'll learn to shine shoes, sell hats, dig ditches...

Rose Light: Or maybe you'll be a Wonderbolt.

Rainbow Dash: Twilight and Rose, give it up! I have.

Twilight Sparkle: So, what do you remember about that flight?

Rainbow Dash: [sighs] Nothing important. Except after Luna was banished to the moon, Celestia needed protective forces, so Earth, unicorn, and Pegasi formed the E.U.P. Guard of the Protective Pony Platoons.

Rose Light: Yes...?

Rainbow Dash: [getting happier] And, at the celebration of the first Celestial year of peace, an elite flying squadron performed, headed by General Firefly, who later named the group the Wonderbolts!

Twilight Sparkle: Uh-huh...?

Rainbow Dash: Commander Easyglider established flight choreography that is still used by the Wonderbolts today!

Rose Light: Yes!

Rainbow Dash: I... I know the history! I know it all! But how in Equestria did that happen?

Twilight Sparkle: You learned it!

Rainbow Dash: Yeah, I got that! But how?

Rose Light: Well, on our first flight, I discovered that you catalog everything that happens all around you when you're flying, without even thinking about it! Don't you see?

[sound of VHS rewinding]

Twilight Sparkle: I made use of your special skills by enlisting everypony to help you learn the history of the Wonderbolts!

Fluttershy: I, Princess Celestia, banish you, Princess Luna, to the moon.

Rarity: Noooooo!

Apple Bloom: Earth!

Sweetie Belle and Coconut Harvest: Unicorn!

Scootaloo: Pegasus!

Apple Bloom: E!

Sweetie Belle and Coconut Harvest: U!

Scootaloo: P!

Big Mac: Eeyup!

Fluttershy: Let us celebrate our first Celestial year of peace!

Pinkie Pie: Yeah, let's party! I'm General Firefly! Gee, my costume is itchy and unattractive, but I'm gonna assemble an awesome flying team!

[cannon exploding]

Pinkie Pie: I'll call them... the Wonderbolts!

Rarity: Streamlined style by Flair d'Mare!

Pegasus Stallion #1: Admiral Fairweather!

Downdraft: Colonel Purple Dart!

Sassaflash: Admiral Fairy Flight!

Pegasus Stallion #2: General Flash!

High Note: Commander Easyglider!

Fluttershy: The history of the Wonderbolts!

Rainbow Dash: Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! Thank you! Thank you all so much!

Rose Light: You're welcome, but it all came from you. You learned without knowing you're learning. Your main focus is flying, but then your brain is also absorbing lots of other information! It's actually really brilliant!

Rainbow Dash: Ha, I always knew I was brilliant!

Main cast: [laughing]

Twilight Sparkle: Rainbow Dash finally learned the history of the Wonderbolts, but she's not the only pony that needed a lesson; I needed to learn something just as important. One way of learning isn't better than another. After all, every pony is unique and individual.

[papers rustling]

[stamping]

Rainbow Dash: Yeeeaah! Whoo!
