Description Swallowing your pride isn't always easy. In this comic Applejack came home after the rodeo in "The Last Roundup" instead of fleeing to Dodge Junction and sending a telegraph.

This choice was very emotional for her, as she decided to come home despite believing that she let all of Ponyville down by failing to win any blue ribbons or prize money. As a result, she cried just about the entire train ride back to Ponyville.

She returns to Sweet Apple Acers and is greeted by the original surprise party that was meant for her, catching her off guard. It turns out that her friends where far more supportive than she thought, which was the ending of the original episode. Turns out that friendship really is magic, with or without blue ribbons.

I really prefer this scene instead of the one where Pinkie and Rarity get left behind because it would have been a great episode (that plus this event would prevent the 2 girls from being left behind)

And the mail pony didn't get any cake for his birthday, and Rarity and Pinkie Pie didn't get their chance to bond.ย

Dear princess Celestia



Today I learned that no matter what you think, your friends are always there for you. Always trust in yourself, don't think what others will think of you.

Your faithful subject, Derpy

I like this scene instead, well, it's alright you didn't win, but at least it's enjoy a good time and share the story.

Dear Princess Celestia,


Today I learned that your greatest friends will never judge you by how other ponies label you. Even if you get first, second or third, it doesn't matter, because having friends is the real treasure.

The only thing I noticed in this comic was RD's missing wings in the last panel. You still have some great stuff and I don't want to be "that" guy. Keep up the good work.

The episode wouldnยดt have lasted more than 10 minutes, but this ending is much better. And, by the way, Derpy had already appeared, so the best part had already finished xD
