Mm hm.

[hiss] - Mm hm.

Oh!

Antoine believes what he eats is his business.

Do other predators feel that way, too?

Would any prey like to respond?

Muriel? Does it bother you when Antoine tries to eat you?

Just because you're on opposite ends

of the food chain doesn't mean you can't work toge--

[elephant honks]

It doesn't mean you can't--

[boink]

[angry growl]

Ahem!

It doesn't mean you can't work togeth--

[snarling growl]

Oh! I'm sorry, but the more you distract everyone,

the longer this will take.

[chittering]

I am listening to you, but if you really want to be heard,

you should join our Predator-Prey-Support Group.

Then you could talk to everyone here.

You could teach all these hungry predators

the delights of a carrot-based cuisine.

Sorry, everyone.

I think some bunny just wants a little attention.

Now, since we all need to get along,

what if all Predators promised to only eat vegetables

while staying at the Sanctuary?

Oh, Sandra. You can do it!

Angel! Sandra! Wait!

Hm. It might look like chaos, but Fluttershy makes it work,

even with Angel running around.

Oooh. Perhaps I can help those two get along,

before something here can go terribly wrong.

Zecora found this little guy and brought him to my office,

but I thought he might do better at the sanctuary.

♪♪

[poof]

Bringing him here seemed the right thing to do.

I've never seen geckos breathe smoke, though, have you?

Oh! I certainly haven't.

I thought we could take a look at his diet,

plus it's about time for me

to give all the animals here a check up.

That's a wonderful idea.

If we really want to know what's going on,

we need to make sure the problem isn't your food.

I wouldn't worry too much.

It's probably just something he's been eating.

Oh, um! Is there anything else we can do for you?

Ahh! Seeing what you two do,

the real question is: "Can I help YOU?"

You mean... me and Angel?

Mm hm.

Oh, he's fine. We're fine.

I just don't always have time to indulge him.

But we're best friends.

Even the best of friends need help from time to time.

Come visit me in my hut, should you change your mind.

OK, thanks. But Angel and I are great.

Goodness, Fluttershy!

Is this the list of what you do every day?

How do you find time for anything else?

Between here and teaching at the school, I'm not sure I do.

You're going to love it here, little gecko.

What is it? Not fluffy enough?

Oh, I'm sorry.

We need to see if your food is causing your issue.

Huh!

Not now, Angel.

[hiss]

They're snake treats made to look like

chocolate chip cookies.

[chewing and gulp]

They're vegan.

Pinkie Pie made a whole jar of them.

They're all yours if you promise.

No more trying to eat Muriel the Baby Elephant.

Ha!

[chitter]

No, Angel. I have too much to do.

[coughing]

Careful, girl. That neck is still pretty sore.

Don't forget to shift your weight, Scout.

Dr. Faun: What does she want?

Her neck is feeling better, but a massage every day

for the next week wouldn't hurt. I'll add it to my list.

Fluttershy, I've said it before, but I'll say it again.

This place would be a zoo without you!

[laughing with a chortle]

[bonk]

Angel!

"Listen to you for once?"

Just what exactly is that supposed to mean?

Come back! I meant tell me, not... oh!

Well, whatever it is,

you're the only one he can tell about it.

Li'l fella just wants you all to himself.

Unfortunately, that's not an option.

Aw, he's not causing any real trouble.

[crash]

[birds squawk]

Other than that, possibly.

[crash] - [elephant trumpets]

Or that. I'll just stop talking.

I'll take care of it.

I hope this is important, Angel.

I've barely made a dent in my to-do list for today.

Concentrated Carrot Extract?

That's for reviving energy-sapped herbivores.

Are you feeling run down?

[chittering]

You just like the taste? Angel.

That extract is in short supply!

What's gotten into you? Every day this week

you've been causing trouble when I have work to do.

Of course, I know you can't talk to anypony else.

But that's not my fault. I have responsibilities!

You're right. We can't go on like this.

I guess we do need to see Zecora for help.

No need to sit and silently stew.

Tell each other what's bothering you.

He's so impatient, even when he knows I have work to do.

Well, that's not true. We talk all the time.

Of course talking at the Sanctuary counts;

that's where I am when I don't have a class to teach.

What do you mean, that's the problem?

You feel like I'm the only pony you can talk to

and all I do is ignore you.

Well, I feel like you don't care

about my responsibilities!

Um, as you can see, we're kind of at an impasse.

Ahh, such luck your coming here, indeed.

Behold, the antidote you need.

Is this what you meant by help us?

When trouble brews between you two,

turning sister against brother.

True understanding is what's due,

each must come to know the other.

There's no time to waste, go directly home,

but you both must taste when you're finally alone.

♪♪

Not yet, Angel.

Zecora told us to take it together when we got home.

Oh! I suppose we could dust off the ol' picnic blanket.

It'll be just like old times.

We'll drink the potion and settle in

for a nice tea party.

I can barely remember the last time we did that.

I've been so busy at the Sanctuary.

Though I really need to keep an eye on Zecora's gecko

and I haven't finished any of today's chores.

If I don't, the animals won't get the care they need.

Oh. Maybe we should save the potion until aft--

Angel! Zecora said to go home first!

I know she said we have to take it together,

so I guess I have to now.

I wonder what it's going to dooWHOOOAA.-

Whoa whoa whoa! Hang on, hold up, am I pony? Why am I a pony?

Eeeeek!

Question: did we switch bodies?

♪♪

Whoa! Whoa!

Seriously, I'm a pony? la la la.

Talking is so cool!

Do you think this was what Zecora meant to happen?

How are you gonna do your chores? Really?

That's what you're worried about?

Well, maybe I don't wanna switch back!

I've only been able to talk to YOU since we met,

and now I can talk to anypony I want!

Roses are red, violets are blue,

you sell flowers and so do you!

Rubber baby buggy bumpers! Rubber baby buggy bumpers!

[baby cries]

Toy boat! Toy boat! Toy boa-AH!

Oh, come on!

I am so too listening. Quit bein' so bossy because --

[sniff]

Are there carrots around here?

You think Zecora gave us the wrong potion,

so you're gonna go to her hut in the forest

and get something to switch us back.

All by yourself?

You really don't know what it's like being a bunny.

Good luck with that. I'm gonna go find those carrots.

[knocking]

"I need to finish your chores?" Ha, ha, ha!

I don't work for you!

And caring about other animals is a you thing.

Fluttershy! Oh, yeah! Uh, that's me!

Definitely Fluttershy, a hundred percent.

Oh. Yeah. There's my good ol' list of chores

because I definitely do not have better things to do.

Well, well, well.

Remember me?

I hope the gem tart stall is still there again.

I could use a snack.

You nearly bought every tart they had last time, Spike.

I can't imagine they wouldn't show up

when there's a great customer like you.

Oh. Hi, Angel. What's going on?

Nope. - Do you know what he's trying to say?

Sorry, Angel. You should probably find Fluttershy.

All right, dude. How about we do bedtime now?

Yeah, eating makes me tired too.

Which reminds me, there's some carrot extract

OK! Let's get you fed and off to dreamland.

A single link to all the world. only one in all the land.

How special she must be to you, the one who understands.

Perhaps if you explained what you wanted

all would return to good.

And if you were to both apologize,

having learned this little lesson,

Fluttershy?

Do you mind helping me look for Muriel the Baby Elephant?

Oh, she's having dinner with Antoine.

Antoine the python?

OK. Point taken. And I totally deserve it.

I did not provide you with the care that Fluttershy would.

But now you know what it's like

not to get the level of attention

The point is Fluttershy is trapped in my bunny body
