A star is born, in more ways than one, when Star Bright proves to Princess Luna that a new star type can exist. After being awarded the Gold Medal of the Canterlot Astronomical Society, the astrophysicist finds himself thrust into the national spotlight, pulling his husband in with him.

Silver Script, an aspiring author, wants to help him anyway he can, including writing his speech. As his efforts get turned down by the speechwriters of Canterlot Castle, however, he begins to fear that his husband's groundbreaking research may be breaking the ground between their relationship, as well.

Cadance, Celestia, Shining Armor, and Twilight Sparkle are enjoying tea when the Bard of Book Reviews (or Bob, to his friends) breaks into their room. He then proceeds to explain to Twilight Sparkle that not all books are special.
