You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is a dimension of sound. A dimension of sight. A dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You have just crossed over into... The Twilight Zone.

On a normal June day, Bright Mac and his wife, Buttercup were about to head into town for a quick errand while they left their children with their grandmother until they get back. On the way, Buttercup expresses her concerns about if they were good enough parents that their children would become good ponies like themselves. But before they could proceed any further, they remember that they had to go back to Sweet Apple Acres to receive something that they have forgotten. It is when they get back that the story really begins.

As you can guess, this is an AJ’s parent’s story that I’m doing it in the style of a Twilight Zone episode. Also, keep in mind that this is currently unedited. So if there is someone who is willing to volunteer to proofread it, please PM me to discuss it with me further.

Big Mac is an ordinary country boy. Even though his little sister gained magical super powers, he's managed to stay out of most of the weirdness. But things go pear-shaped after he starts spending more time with his physics teacher, Dr. Discord. Thanks to Dr. Discord's time machine, Big Mac becomes stranded in the year 1993, and that's not even the strangest part.

No, the strangest part is that his mom keeps flirting with him.

Applejack discovers something is eating her apples. Whatever could it be?

A call for help from Cherry Jubilee brings Applejack back to a very different Dodge Junction. Its residents are fearful, a gang of kleptomaniacs has the full run, trolls are on the loose, and the sheriff's in a criminal's pocket.

Besides Big Macintosh, the only pony on Applejack's side is the most accident-prone being in Equestria. If the schemes of a psychotic but dainty griffon don't ruin things, Clutterstep just might. Applejack reckons they've got as much chance as a seed in a storm, but an Apple always honors her friends. It's a race to finish the harvest and save Cherry Hill Ranch while making it out alive back to Ponyville.

How much time has passed the poor farmer stallion by as he lazed away on his farm? He doesn't know, but one thing is certain. All the mare in this town are apparently crazy.

Upon discovering that her brother has a fillyfriend, Applejack is making her mission to find out who this mystery mare is. Joining her on this mission is her best friend, Rainbow Dash.

Years ago Luna had found a handsome stallion who had treated her as an equal. A kind gentle pony from a carnival a long time ago. The kiss they shared still fresh on her mind, will she be lucky enough to encounter them a second time on this night?

It's been a few months since you ended up in Equestria through magical (and irrelevant) means. You've been working on the Apple farm ever since, helping out Applejack and her family with the upcoming harvest. After a hard day of work, though, the mare decides that she wants you as an honorary member of her family.

Once again Spike is left alone at the library while Twilight is away. Bored and tired of always staying inside he decides to go to a night club with a friend. While there he meets a mare that shows him to loosen up and live life to the fullest.

Thanks to Discord, Applejack and Rarity are both sick with the blue flu, and its up to Spike to nurse his crush back to health.
