Why? Why couldn't they be there for her special moment? Applebloom tells Applejack how she feels about their parents not being there for them when they have something special to them happen like birthdays, weddings, and especially getting your cutie mark.

After the CMC got their marks and became friends with Diamond Tiara, Apple Bloom's grasp on reality starts to change. Blurry vision, jumbled words, and that's only the beginning. Friends coming in and out of life, and Apple Bloom has to suffer for it all. How will the CMC get through all this? Will she come to grips with the truth, or will everything she knew dissappear?

After a long and productive career, Apple Bloom reflects on what it really means to have a super special talent like her own. Not all of it is sunshine and rainbows though. In fact, come to think on it, none of it is sunshine and rainbows. Whoops.

Princess Twilight Sparkle lay there in anguished silence for almost a minute until she decided to let Scootaloo, Apple Bloom, and me help her. It came out as a whisper: "My special talent isn't magic." Of all the ponies we might help, I had never imagined our first might be Twilight, or that it would essential for Equestria that we got it right.

After standing up against her mother, Diamond Tiara has finally turned over a new leaf. Most of the class has forgiven her for her past behavior, and things seem to be moving on towards a brighter future.

However, she still feels guilty about the way she treated three particular ponies.

It's time to apologize.

Diamond Tiara just isn't happy with where her life is. She misses her father, she's stuck with a dictator of a mother, and she only has one friend to speak of, whom she only sees at school. Why hasn't her father come home? Will she ever be happy again?
