User blog:Gumball2/Let's Watch Princess Pony (Episode 3): Settling In

Lincoln: Hello and welcome back to "Let's Watch".

Leni: Now that the dark and scary stuff is done, we can get on with the real show!

(Lincoln turns to his big sister)

Lincoln: You didn't like the first two episodes?

Leni: I did. But now things aren't scary.

Lucy: The real terror now is...emotion.

(Shudders)

Lincoln: So Lucy, who's your favorite character?

Lucy: You actually wanna know?

Lincoln: Of course I do. Why wouldn't I?

Lucy: 'Cause no one cares.

Lincoln: I do.

Leni: Yeah! We all do, Lucy!

(Lucy slowly brings her arms to her chest. She flicks her hair before allowing her arms to rest in a crossed position. The silence is as awkward as this description)

Lucy: Twily is my favorite.

Leni: Ooooo! Why her?

Lucy: What's your theory?

Leni: This isn't about me. This is about you.

Lucy: Well maybe it'll make more sense as the show goes on.

Lincoln: Note taken.

(Turns to camera)

Lincoln: Well without further ado, let's get started.

(Fade in. Twily strolls into Arbor Library, where much of the books are strewn about the floor. She sighes. Her horn lights up, lifting all the tomes in the air. As the individual volumes levitate, Twily peers at their covers before sliding them one at a time in a certain order)

Lincoln: Uh...Aren't you a little tired to be organizing those? Take a break!

Lucy: You know she can't do that. I wish I were that motivated to be organized.

Lincoln: Or better yet, go to bed! You literally just got back after a whole night of awesome action.

Lucy: Isn't there a part of you that think it means something too?

(Lincoln shrugs)

Lucy: Just watch.

(Cut to later. The sun shines through the windows of the quaint library. Even though there is a bedroom, Twily is sprawled out on the wooden floor, asleep)

Leni: At least she got all the books back.

(Close up of Twily snoring. Despite her love of reading, her overwhelming slumber cannot even lure her to pull out a single book. She is a rock. That is, until we hear the door pounding. Twily's heavy eyes struggle to open. She groggily gets up to address the clammering. As she yawns, she opens the door, revealing Jewel)

Jewel: Good morning, darling.

(Cut to Twily's face, who says it all. Eye bags, mouth dipping open, and a firm stance supported by legs with all the life of a log)

Jewel: I know that you're still getting settled in, but I was wondering if you and I could have a date together.

Lincoln: Did she really have to say it like that?!

(Twily rubs her eyes and moans)

Jewel: Dear me, I didn't wake you up! Did I?

Twily: I'm sorry...maybe later?

(Camera pans to the vast shelf of books behind both of them)

Jewel: Of course! Did you want me to drop by or did you want to meet me somewhere?

(Twily takes a slow step back)

Twily: Wherever is fine by me. You know where to find me.

Jewel: Which is?

(Twily yawns again)

Twily: I dunno...the farmer's market.

Jewel: Well okay, I'll keep an eye out for you.

(Twily shuts the door. Certain that the pony won't be returning, Twily sighes and slumps down on the ground. She gazes at the books surrounding her)

Twily: Time for breakfast.

(Cut to Twily still on the ground, this time pouring through a new book. All signs of weariness have vanished)

Lincoln: So I guess reading is her food?

Lucy: How I wish I could keep my mortal coil wound with Poe.

(Her stomach growls)

Leni: See Linky. She didn't have breakfast, so that's why she's hungry.

Lincoln: Still, that's not healthy.

(Twily sighes)

Twily: I wish I didn't have a stomach.

Lucy: Sigh.

(Twily reluctantly gets up and looks out the window. Maretown is vibrant, colorful, and has locals going about their business. She then heads through a tiny door underneath the stairs, revealing a small kitchen with all the appliances in place. A small grin brushes up on her face, but it falls the moment she checks the cabinets. Nothing)

Lincoln: Wow. Oriana meant it when she wanted her to get out of the house.

Twily: You've got to be kidding me.

(She closes the cabinet. Cut to Twily walking down the road. Some ponies that pass by her wave, but Twily gives them minimal acknowledgment)

Lincoln: The world: a man's worst enemy!

Leni: Hey! Y'know some people have a really hard time making friends.

Lincoln: Yeah, but she doesn't look the least bit interested. Just look at her face! She'd eat the books if it meant she didn't have to go out in public, but then she wouldn't be able to read them.

Leni: Well...she's learning.

Rosy: Hi!

(Twily looks up and sees Rosy approaching her, smiling as usual. Leni's face lightens up, as if someone just turned a switch)

Twily: Oh, Hello.

Rosy: I've been looking everywhere for you.

Twily: Oh really?

Rosy: Yeah! I wanted to ask you about your upcoming "Welcome to Maretown" Party.

Twily: Upcoming? I already had one.

Rosy: I did, but then it got all mixed up with the Festival and then that meanie Enchantress ruined it and we had to run off and you were scared and everything. You must have been so scared and sad that so much stuff happened before you really got to know everyone.

(For once, Rosy smile fades ever so briefly)

Leni: Aww.

(But then she jerks it back up)

Rosy: So that's why I'm throwing a redo!

Leni: Yay!

Rosy: And I don't wanna make this just any "Welcome to Maretown" Party. I want to make this the bestest, most spectacular, perfect party ever! And I want to know exactly what you want.

Twily: Um...Okay.

Rosy: Well...what do you want?

(Rosy leans into Twily. Twily is confronted by those big blue eyes and intense smile. What to do? What to say? The two are so close, their muzzles are practically touching)

Lincoln: Give her some room.

Leni: Linky, this is important. She needs to make Twily happy!

Lincoln: She could start by taking a few steps back.

Leni: That's rude.

Lincoln: Rude? How is that rude?

Leni: She's only doing it to make Twily happy!

Lincoln: How would you feel if I was in your face all the time?

(Leni chuckles)

Leni: I'd pinch your precious little cheeks, of course.

Lucy: (whispering) She would actually despise it. She's only saying that to defend Rosy.

Lincoln: Uh yeah. I kinda picked up on that.

Twily: Um...well...

(In the corner of her eye, she spots Jewel passing by. As expected, the pony notices her and approaches)

Jewel: Good afternoon, Twily! How's your morning been?

Lincoln: Convenient.

Twily: Pretty okay. I, Uh, feel more awake now.

Jewel: Is now a good time to go on our date?

(Lucy turns to Lincoln)

Lucy: Trust me. It does get worse than this.

Twily: Actually, Yes. Let's get going.

Rosy: Can I tag along? Twily's helping me prepare for her redo "Welcome to Maretown" Party!

Twily: Well...um...

(Twily's eyes shift around, trying to find the right words. Instead, Jewel takes a step forward and points a hoof to her left)

Jewel: Say Rosy, I think I just saw Candy Curl putting out a fresh batch of chocolate.

(Her eyes sparkle)

Rosy: Really?!

Jewel: You might wanna head over there before he sells out.

Rosy: It's so yummy!

(Turns to Twily)

Rosy: I'm sorry, Twily. We can catch up later.

Twily: Sure...

(Before she could add another word, Rosy darts off. Once she insures she's gone, Jewel pats Twily's back, encouraging her to walk)

Jewel: So, tell me more about Canterlot. What are the elite like?

Lincoln: Believe me, they're hardly a treat.

Twily: Well I don't go out too much, but I see them quite a bit. They're okay.

Jewel: Okay?! What are their clothes like? Their etiquette? Their grace?

Twily: I never bothered too much with that stuff. Clothes are clothes.

Lincoln: Say the ponies without any.

Leni: That's what Jewel's for, silly.

Jewel: Well...I hear about all the high culture events.

(A small smile pops up on Jewel's face. As she speaks, it expands, along with her starstruck eyes)

Jewel: Have you attended an opera at the Teatrot? A concert at the Carneneigh? The Winter Gala at the Royal Castle?

Twily: Not really.

(All that enthusiasm deflates like a balloon)

Twily: I've never really been interested in that type of stuff.

(Jewel smiles, though it's clear more to save face. Her eyes dart back and forth)

Jewel: Well, um...that's okay. High culture isn't for everyone, I guess.

Lucy: I prefer the works of Hawthorne anyway.

Twily: Do you...um...read at all?

Jewel: Why yes. I follow all the major fashion catalogs, to know what's in and out, gain insight from the strongest minds in the industry, and to admire some truly fabulous art.

(Lincoln turns to Leni. She notices)

Leni: What?

Lincoln: She sounds just like you.

Leni: No she doesn't.

(She clears her throat)

Leni: (attempts to sound prim and proper) She talks likes this and finishes all her sentences with, like, a flourish.

(Flips her hair)

Lucy: The "like" ruins it.

Leni: I'm trying!

Twily: I'm not really into those. I prefer the classic novels along with academic research.

Lincoln: Well that certainly reminds me of someone I know. Say Lucy, have you and Lisa ever thought of connecting through books?

Lucy: Once, I tried introducing her to Vampires of Melancholia, but she scoffed. She referred to it as "pedantic nihilism". I'm not even sure what she means by that.

Lincoln: If only she knew about this show.

Jewel: Well I'm sure we can reach some common ground one way or another. Do you like donuts?

(Twily perks up)

Twily: As a matter of fact, I do.

Jewel: Well in that case, there's a nice donut shop around the corner.

Twily: Okay.

Lincoln: Huh. Jewel sure made a lucky guess with that one.

Leni: Well she likes donuts.

Lincoln: Still, for someone of her temperament-

(turns to Leni)

Lincoln: Manners, she seems like someone that would enjoy something better.

Leni: There's nothing wrong with donuts, Linky.

Lincoln: Don't you think it's weird how just moments after Jewel takes about how she adores high culture that she settles for something so lowly?

Leni: Well she did hear Twily say she doesn't like that stuff. So I guess that she, like, wanted to reach for something else.

Lincoln: So does that mean that Jewel also likes donuts?

Leni: Yes.

Lincoln: Why?

Leni: Because she does.

(Twily and Jewel turn at the end of the road and notice a crowd surrounding a stallion on a blue and pink crate. He adorns a deep blue sash across his white coat and lets his unkempt red mane roll free. This is Furious Fire)

Fire: Now I know what you're thinking. Where was the Princess when the Enchantress attacked? Taking a nap? Too busy with her reception? Once again, our ruler fails to respond to our needs!

Lincoln: Woah! Look out!

Fire: This is an outrage! I'm angry!

(The other voices join in angry chants. Twily stops to examine it)

Fire: We can't let something like this happen again! This wouldn't happen if the Princess wasn't so cozy in the cushion of power!

(Lincoln nervously chuckles)

Lincoln: Is it me or is the room getting awfully stuffy?

Twily: Hey!

(Fire and the others turn to Twily, who herself appears quite incensed)

Twily: I'll have you know that the Princess has worked tirelessly by herself over the past thousand years to uphold peace and prosperity. She's the greatest soul capable of ruling Equestria!

(Fire laughs heartily)

Fire: That's What they want you to think. For too long now, the Princess has had complete control over our land, yet ponies like us don't have a say. It's like the Princess doesn't trust us to care for ourselves.

(Twily gasps)

Twily: For your information, the Princess knows exactly what she's doing! We're safe, healthy, and able to do what we want thanks to her.

Fire: Where was she during the Festival, Huh? If she's so well qualified to lead, then why couldn't she stop the Enchantress?

(Twily growls and her horn lights up)

Twily: You think you can do better?

(A nervously smiling Jewel wraps a hoof around Twily and herds her away)

Jewel: My apologies. Carry on, mister.

(Fire grunts)

Lincoln: Wow...

(Leni and Lucy turn to Lincoln, who's face is flushed)

Lincoln: That came completely out of left field.

Leni: No it didn't. It came out of the screen.

Lincoln: Uh...could either of you explain to me what just happened?

Lucy: Isn't it obvious? This is more than just a kids show. It's supposed to make you think of the deep political realities that pervade our inferior human world. These problems are so fundamental that they even plague the wonderland known as Equestria.

(Lincoln's eyes widen)

Lincoln: Uhhhhhhh

Lucy: Soon, you'll understand.

Twily: I can't believe he would say that about the Princess! He thinks being Princess just means sitting on a throne and having ponies deliver everything on a silver platter.

Jewel: Well darling, Furious Fire is a piece of work, but you shouldn't engage with him. He craves attention, you know.

(Twily's brows are deeply furrowed. Her frown is etched in stone. Her eyes shoot to the ground)

Twily: (mumbling) He doesn't know anything.

Jewel: Well look at that!

(Camera pans out, revealing the donut shop)

Jewel: We've made it.

Lincoln: Maybe this will break the tension.

(Cut to the two sitting at a table right outside the shop)

Jewel: So tell me, what do you like to read about?

Twily: Mainly about magic. There's so much to it, the way it binds everything around us and how ponies can conjur that great power for the benefit of all.

Lincoln: So are the unicorns Jedi?

Jewel: Huh. I never saw it that way. Mostly, I just use it to hold things.

Twily: Hold things?! That's the tip of the iceberg.

(For the first time today, Twily's lips curl into a smile)

Twily: There are spells I've started reading about when I was a filly and I still don't understand them. There's a whole science to it all, a way of measuring how much magic you're using, what type it is, how you're affecting your environment. Career magicians exist for a reason!

Jewel: That's fascinating, darling. I never thought of it that way.

Twily: So it's hardly just having an extra set of hooves.

Jewel: I suppose, though it's been a while since I dusted off the books on magic. I mostly specialize in the beauty of others. When you have clients to attend to, engagements to partake, and a coiffure to uphold.

(Jewel whips her mane)

Jewel: There's little time left for reading.

Twily: Finding time has always been easy.

Jewel: Darling, you must have friends.

Twily: No.

Lincoln: What a surprise.

Leni: I know!

(turns to Lincoln)

Leni: How could anyone have known?

(pause)

Leni: Am I doing it right?

Lincoln: Better.

Jewel: That must be depressing! How can anyone go that long without any friends? Why I'm certainly glad you came to me.

Lincoln: Actually it was the other way around, but close enough.

Twily: I've never been bothered by it. Books are just so fascinating that I can't put them down.

Jewel: But darling! One must have friends.

Twily: Why?

Leni: Rude!

Lincoln: Can anyone tell me what's happening in this episode?

Jewel: Well...

(Jewel's face flusters up. She struggles to keep up her graceful composure in the bumbling confusion)

Jewel: I have found that having friends has opened up my eyes to the world around me. There's donut shops, protest speakers, designers and students. There's so much to learn and appreciate from getting out there and talking to others.

Twily: I don't think you've read the same books I have.

Jewel: Oh?

Twily: I've heard plenty of ponies talk about the limits of reading, how you just need to get out there. But there's books on virtually everything: Magic, history, psychology, even how to host a sleepover. And then when you pore through the pages, easing through the paragraphs, you pick up all the fine details. And before you know it, you're there and you know everything there is to know just from reading.

Lincoln: Uh...I guess.

Lucy: Don't underestimate the power of the written word, Lincoln. All the great poets got into the very heart and psyche of the human existence.

Jewel: Well thinking something through is one thing, but feeling it is a whole other. I remember one time I read an excellent review of a clothing line in a catalog and it compelled me to buy it. But once they came in, I was horrified!

(Holds hoof to forehead, as if she's about to faint)

Jewel: The greens were beyond garish, the stitching was all over the place, the buttons were dull as a doorknob.

Lincoln: Ow! Leni, you're doing it again!

(She realizes the damage. Leni was gripping Lincoln's hand way too tightly. Embarrassed, she retracts)

Leni: Sorry! I just can't stop seeing that monstrosity!

Jewel: Had I gone out and seen that in the store, I never would have bought it.

Twily: That's different. The thing I seek in books cannot be bought. Merely acquired.

Jewel: Wouldn't you want to go out there and see if what you're reading is true?

Twily: Maybe. That's what research is for: cross-examining other works, analyzing arguments and finding out what they share in common.

(Jewel takes a bite out of her donut)

Twily: Books solve a lot more than ponies are willing to give credit for.

Jewel: Well what about where we are right now? Are you learning nothing from the time we're sharing?

Twily: Well...um...

(Twily struggles to keep eye contact with the patient Jewel. She brings a hoof to her cheek)

Lincoln: So is she now starting to see the error of her ways?

Lucy: You could interpret it that way.

Twily: I, Uh, suppose I am. Every waking moment is learning.

Jewel: Then you can learn things outside books.

Lincoln: I want to think this is a good logical leap, but I feel like Twily just contradicted herself because...

Lucy: Well I like to think she's too proud to admit she can't learn. She couldn't say she wasn't learning nothing because it's not in her nature to be that way. She's a student and students are always learning.

Leni: Yeah!

Lincoln: But at the same time, she could have just said she could have also learning about making friends in a book.

(Leni stares at the screen silently, bringing two fingers under her chin)

Jewel: You were just on a dangerous journey where you got to know me and the others. You saw how books can be wrong sometimes. Does that mean nothing to you?

Twily: No...

Jewel: Then there is a world outside books. And I'm happy to help you realize that by being your friend.

(Twily takes the last bite of her donut. She pauses for a moment, staring at the table. Only crumbs remain)

Lincoln: This is getting pretty awkward.

Jewel: What's wrong?

Twily: I don't know how to make friends.

(Jewel's eyes widen)

Lincoln: Finally, she admits she doesn't know something.

Leni: We can't know everything.

Lucy: Sigh. How I want to learn about the after life.

Jewel: That's why I'm here.

(She smiles and extends a hoof to Twily)

Jewel: The Princess assigned you to learn about friendship. It may be difficult for you, but that doesn't mean you can't get help. Isn't that what friends are for?

Leni: Yes they are!

(Twily stares at the hoof. She gazes at Jewel, seeing the smile on her face. And then, she touches the hoof)

Twily: Yes they are.

Leni: Yay! I got all the right words.

Lucy: All three of them.

Leni: But I don't know what you're talking about Linky. All sorts of stuff happens in this episode. Like this long talk with Jewel and Twily.

Lincoln: My problem with this episode is that there's no structure. Each episode is supposed to have a beginning, middle, and end.

Leni: The episode isn't over yet, silly.

Lincoln: But this episode doesn't have a clear conflict. And without a conflict, you can't have a beginning. Without a conflict, there's no middle in which the characters try working through the conflict set forth in the beginning.

Jewel: If it makes you more comfortable, we can hang out at your place.

Twily: Well...it's the closest place I have to home around here.

Jewel: There you go. You're starting to make progress.

(Fade to black)

Lincoln: That was...sudden.

(Fade in to the two girls standing outside the library)

Jewel: And then I finally got my hooves on that ruby. I stitiched it on and at last it was complete!

Leni: Phew. For a minute there, I was worried that she, like, wouldn't have it.

Twily: I'm glad to hear it all worked out. If you want, I think I can find some books about gems.

Jewel: It wouldn't hurt to look, although I'm sure I'll have things to say.

(Twily opens the door and her eyes widen)

Rosy: Surprise!

(The two recent arrivals examine the scene. Balloons cling to the ceiling, a draped table full of food and drinks stands in the room's center, a record player is in the back, and Rosy is eagerly grinning)

Lincoln: This is where should have cut to commercial!

Twily: What is all this?

Rosy: This is your "Welcome to Maretown" redo! I was gonna ask you what you wanted, but then you told me about Candy Curl and his chocolate. But then when I got over there, he told me he didn't have any. So then I tried finding you and I saw you hanging out with Jewel. So then that let me know that you wanted to be with Jewel for the party since she's your friend. Then I thought that you wanted to be in your home since you like books and you didn't have a house warming. And from there, everything else was easy peasy!

(As Rosy smiles, Twily remains dumbfounded)

Twily: So then how did you get in here and set everything up so quickly? We weren't out for that long.

(Rosy chuckles, causing Twily to raise an eyebrow)

Rosy: Well the door was unlocked.

(Lincoln throws up his arms)

Lincoln: That's simply ingenious! Knocking? What's that?!

Leni: But we, like, walk into all of our rooms all the time.

Lincoln: Rooms! Not entire houses. This is just breaking and entering.

Leni: Rosy didn't break anything. She just came in and set up all this cool stuff. And it's all to make Twily happy!

(Jewel leans into Twily's ear)

Jewel: Don't press her too hard on this. She does stuff like this a lot.

Twily: Well...Okay. Are these treats for me?

Rosy: You bet! Take as many as you like.

Lincoln: Hope you don't mind, but I kinda raided your fridge.

Leni: That's not true! She got all that stuff herself.

Lincoln: It's a joke, Leni.

(Leni crosses her arms)

Leni: I don't think it's funny.

(Twily examines the snacks on the table. It consists of donuts, cookies, cupcakes, and soda)

Twily: Donuts, Huh?

Rosy: I know you and Jewel were there earlier, so I figured you would like them. And everypony I know loves cookies and cupcakes!

Twily: Why...thank you.

Rosy: Yup!

(A knock on the door, prompting Rosy's smile to widen)

Rosy: I'll get it!

(Rosy bounces to the door and opens it. Three other ponies enter)

Pearasol: Hey there, Twily. It seems like yer still breakin' in the roots.

Twily: I guess so. I haven't been here too long, though.

Pearasol: That's what good ol' community is fer.

(Wraps a hoof around Twily's neck. The latter gives a small, uncertain smile)

Pearasol: Now lets get this hootenanny rollin'!

Lucy: They're all so happy together. Sigh.

Lincoln: What's wrong?

Lucy: Nothing. I'm just being my usual sad self.

(Lincoln turns to Lucy, unsure of what to do. After several moments, he places a hand on her shoulder)

Lincoln: It's okay if you get sad. You can think of this as like a party.

Leni: Yeah! Maybe for the next episode we can have, like, food and stuff.

Lincoln: Yeah. I know I'm gonna say this again soon, but we're here for each other. We are the Princess Pony club and we're here to have fun.

Leni: Yeah!

Lucy: I know. I like this show and I'm glad you two aren't teasing me for it. Still, old habits die hard.

(Leni stares at her quietly. It takes her several seconds to speak up)

Leni: Don't worry, Lucy. You deserve to be happy. You're amazing!

(Cut to the party in full swing)

Flying: Check this out!

(Flying chugs a whole cup of soda in one sip. After wiping her mouth, she gives an emphatic burp)

Flying: Now, now. No need to thank me.

Pearasol: Is that all ya got?

(She grabs her own cup and takes a swig of the stuff. After gulping, she gave an even larger burp)

Flying: Ha! Not even close!

(Pan over to Jewel, Stuttersneeze, and Twily)

Jewel: Oh yes, the two of us have been close since we were fillies.

Twily: So you're interested in animals?

Stuttersneeze: Yes. They all have good in them and I want to help them all see that. They make for good friends.

Twily: Huh. I've never looked at it that way.

Stuttersneeze: Did you have a pet growing up?

Twily: Not really.

Stuttersneeze: If you want, I host a tea party with them every week and we would like to have you over.

Twily: Okay. Is it you and Jewel?

Jewel: I come over occasionally, but mostly it's just the animals.

Twily: Animals? You have tea parties with animals?

Stuttersneeze: Oh yes.

Lincoln: I think Lana would like her.

Jewel: There you go, Twily. Why don't you and Stuttersneeze spend time together?

Twily: Well...

(Looks at Jewel and then Stuttersneeze)

Twily: Okay. I'd be happy to join you.

Stuttersneeze: Thank you, Twily. I won't let you down.

Rosy: Alright everypony!

(The other five turn to her as she stands in the middle of the room)

Rosy: I just wanted to tell you, Twily that I am happy that you have come to Ponyville. I want to be your friend more than anything and I hope this party will make you happy.

Twily: Well it's pretty nice.

(Looks at the five adoring faces surrounding her)

Twily: I wasn't expecting all of you to stick around after the first day, but I'm humbled that you have. And...I feel special.

(A small smile appears on her face)

Twily: Thank you all.

(Walks up to Twily)

Pearasol: Aw shucks! Ah wouldn't ditch ya.

Jewel: Neither would I. We're here to help you learn.

Stuttersneeze: If that's okay with you.

(Flying crosses her hooves and tries averting her attention from the growing cluster around Twily)

Lincoln: Only losers get soft like that. I'm super cool!

(But eventually, she sighs)

Flying: Aw, what the hay.

Lincoln: Ow! That pun was so bad, it physically hurt me.

Leni: Are you okay?

Lincoln: I think I'll be fine, Leni.

Rosy: Group hug!

(Rosy jumps in and wraps all five of them in a hug)

Leni: Aww!

(The camera cuts to each of the ponies' smiling faces, one at a time)

Twily: (voiceover) Today was interesting. Now that the Festival has passed and things are getting quiet, I wasn't sure where to go from here. I guess I have friends now, but what am I supposed to do? Talk to them all day about books? Well...I like them all. And somehow, even if they have to do the heavy lifting, I suppose I'll get by.

(Cut to Twily's face)

Twily: I suppose.

(Cut to black)

Lincoln: That's it?!

Lucy: Well, that was the last episode you were already familiar with.

Lincoln: Yeah. I can't believe there's still so much to watch.

Leni: I liked this episode. Rosy was totes great in it!

Lincoln: She broke into Twily's house!

Leni: It was to make her happy.

Lucy: This episode was necessary to get the ball rolling. It's not every day they're going off fighting monsters and doing grand adventures.

Lincoln: As a normal episode, it was alright. But it just went all over the place. It just felt like a dull day in the life story. There was barely any conflict.

Lucy: What about Twily not wanting to go outside? You're telling me that wasn't conflict?

Lincoln: It was alright, but I felt like it wasn't going anywhere. I like the characters, but I wasn't sure why this episode needed to exist. I dunno.

Leni: Maybe you'll like the next episode. This one is one you've never seen before.

Lincoln: Well...I'll hold you to that.

(Turns to camera)

Lincoln: This has been another episode and we'll see you all again next time.
