Are you guys ready for today's adventure? 15 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. Poppy the Purple Pony lived don 16 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: Waffle Farm with the other Rainbow Ponies. There were ponies 17 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: of every color. Kids from everywhere came to visit them 18 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: five days a week for pony rides. Oh and on Saturdays, 19 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 1: the farm held their waffle stack breakfast. Oh it was delicious. 20 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: That was Poppy's favorite day of the week, and I 21 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: can't blame her. She loved eating stacks of blueberry waffles 22 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: with the kids. Monday through Saturday was always busy and exciting. 23 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:40,919 Speaker 1: But today was Sunday and Poppy didn't know what to do. Ah, 24 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: let's do something exciting, announced Poppy. But the other ponies 25 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: just groaned. We're tired, Poppy, we had visitors all week. 26 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a nap yon Petunia the pink guess 27 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: I'll go exploding on my own, Poppy said to herself, 28 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: and off she went off to the stable and set 29 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: off trotting across the grass towards the gate. Poppy was 30 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: opening the latch gate when a familiar voice called out, Hey, Puppy, 31 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: wa it up. She turned and saw Bo, the blue pony, 32 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: galloping up behind her. If I want to come to Puppy, 33 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: she winnied with excitement as her friend caught up, and 34 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: then they headed off the farm together, looking for a 35 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: Sunday adventure. Poppy and Bo were trotting around for quite 36 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: a while, their excitement started to dwindle. Longer they went. 37 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: Do you know what it means if something dwindles? Yeah, 38 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: it means their excitement got a lot smaller and smaller. 39 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: I didn't realize we had no neighbors, groaned Bo. All 40 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: there is out here is more and more farmland. But 41 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: Poppy was determined to find something. Don't give up, Bo, 42 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: just just a little further. I'm sure we'll come across 43 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: something exciting. I wish i'd find another house. At least, 44 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 1: I'm pretty hungry. Bo's eyes got very large as he 45 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: could hear his tummy rumbling. But then Poppy looked across 46 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: the field they were passing, where she could have sworn 47 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: there was nothing. A moment ago, bo, Oh, look at that. 48 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: It's a house. Across the field was a lopsided home 49 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: with blue siding and beautiful purple shutters. The house looked 50 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: like it was balancing on a point, with a flat 51 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: roof and plants growing on top of it. Strange. Looked 52 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: like someone had dropped the house upside down and the 53 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: tip of the roof stuck into the dirt. Let's go 54 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: see if they have any food. Bow raced toward the 55 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: front door, with Poppy right behind him. They stopped in 56 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: front and it opened for them. Oh wow, I guess 57 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: we should go inside then, since the door I just opened, 58 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: suggested Poppy. The two ponies wandered into the house. The 59 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: inside looked just as upside down as the outside. Pictures 60 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 1: were hanging near the floor, and tables were stuck to 61 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: the sailing sikes. What if your bedroom was upside down? 62 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: That would be pretty hilarious looking, right. They continued walking 63 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: into the living room, where oh my, the couch was 64 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: above them and the TV stand was up in the 65 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: corner ceiling. The drawers of the stand were opened and 66 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: all of its contents had spilled onto the ground. I'm 67 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: gonna go see if any food fell out of the kitchen. 68 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: Maybe it'll fall right into my mouth, Bo laughed as 69 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: he trotted away, as his tummy continued to grumble. Poppy, though, 70 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: walked around the light on the floor and under the 71 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: rug toward the things that had fallen. She looked through books, movies, 72 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: loose candy, until under it all she found a beautiful 73 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: glowing necklace. She picked it up to admire it, just 74 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:50,679 Speaker 1: as Bo wandered back into the room. No food, he sighed, 75 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: I wish there was something delicious to eat, And here 76 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: a three tiered carrot cake magically appeared in front of Bow, 77 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: whoa screeched a startled Bow, surprised. Cake alrighty. Then Poppy 78 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: looked from the necklace to the cake, and back to 79 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: the necklace again. Hmmm, do you what do you have 80 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: dirts up to start? Shiny, mumbled Bow through a mouthful 81 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: of cake. It's a necklace. I wish I could wear it, 82 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: but I can't clasp it with my hoofs. As soon 83 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: as the words were out of her mouth, the necklace 84 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: flew onto her neck and clasped itself. WHOA is done? 85 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: All that cake got here too. Bow decided to test 86 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: it out himself. Hmm, I wish for more cakes. Suddenly 87 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: three more cakes appeared all around Bow, Poppy, you phone 88 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: a magic necklace? Quick? Ask you for something else? Try 89 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: it out? Okay, I wish for m are you to 90 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: cord horn? Poppy's head suddenly felt heavier. Whoa, and she 91 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: reached up and felt a long, beautiful, sparkly horn sticking 92 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: out of it. WHOA, I wish the other ponies were 93 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: here to say this, exclaimed Bo. The room immediately became 94 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: more crowded as all the Rainbow puppies magically poofed and 95 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: appeared into the space. Woo, what how did I get here? Gasped, Petunia, 96 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: the pink pony mouse starts room yawned Ople the orange pony. 97 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: The room became very noisy as the ponies tried to 98 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: figure out what had just happened. Then Ople the Orange 99 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: pony shouted as she saw Poppy, that's a learner, Carl. 100 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: All noise stopped as everyone froze and stared at the 101 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: pink pony with the unicorn horn. 102 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: Purple Hu's hus are. 103 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: Boe explained, Poppy and I bound this upside down house, 104 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: and then Poppy found the magical necklace. Come to think 105 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: of it, that's probably how this house appeared in this 106 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: empty field. I wished for food and cakes, and Poppy 107 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: wished to be a unicorn. I wish you could have 108 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,119 Speaker 1: seen it all and wait, and now you're all here, Yeah, 109 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: because I wished it. Surprise. The other ponies stared at 110 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: them with their mouths wide open, and then everyone started 111 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: talking at once. I wish for wiggs, howros for a 112 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 1: pet among her. I wish for a waterside horrs will 113 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: run the horse poof, poof, poof, splash. Everyone's wishes happened immediately, 114 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: and then they were all dropped into the ocean at 115 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: the same time, trying to keep their heads above the water. 116 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: Herps I'm onto saw at the arson m rps. Poppy 117 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: couldn't see the shore anywhere and began to panic before 118 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: she remembered she had the magical necklace on. Getting anything 119 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: they could think of was causing too much chaos. Poppy 120 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: kind of wish she'd never found the necklace in the 121 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: first place. That's the secret, Poppy shouted, I wish I'd 122 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: never found that necklace in the first place. The ocean 123 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: began to swirl around them, and poof disappeared as all 124 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: the ponies were whisked away. Back before the wishes, Poppy 125 00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: and bo were wandering down the road past an empty field. Oh, 126 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm so hungry. I wish for nothing. What are you 127 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: thinking about wishing for more things? Poppy shouted over him, nervously, laughing, 128 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: we have no more wishes. Thanks. Boh gave her a 129 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: strange look. Oh okay, Poppy, but I am hungry. Let's 130 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: turn around and get some waffles. I think we've had 131 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: enough adventure for today, answered Poppy as she gazed at 132 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: the field. She looked hard enough she thought she could 133 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: see something glowing out there in the grass, but she 134 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: was far too worried to go investigate it to see 135 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: if it was indeed that magical necklace. Wow, if you 136 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: found a magical necklace, what would you wish for? I 137 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: just make sure that you're extra careful because you don't 138 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: want to accidentally wish to be in the ocean and 139 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: then be in the ocean. Well, that was an amazing adventure. 140 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad that these ponies learned a valuable lesson careful 141 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: what you wish for, because you might get very, very 142 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: wet the end. 143 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 2: We'll be right back after a brief word from our sponsor. Wow, 144 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 2: looks like we're already back to the show. 145 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: Hey, friend, Zioned your help celebrating some birthdays.
