Not to put too fine a point on it but ....

Sweetie Belle loves playing dress up. I miss her so much!

Then why don't you go visit her?

I wish I could, but between running three stores

and the springsition, I couldn't possibly!

But you've already done almost all the work.

I can handle the rest.

But--

Rarity, go! I have everything well in hoof.

[blubbering]

Point taken.

I am going to visit my sister!

Way to immediately turn that around!

We can spend the whole day together!

And we can do all of her favorite things!

I'm sure she'd love that!

Oh, Sassy, thank you!

Of course! Now get out of here!

Scoot, we've got a job to do.

Later?

All right, Chip Cutter. We've done our part.

The rest is up to you.

You really think I have it in me to be a sculptor?

Yup.

But... why?

Because you said you weren't good at anything

except getting in trouble for making sculptures

out of your lunch, right?

Yeah. I can't help it. When I look at my sandwich,

Woo-hoo! All right!

Yes!

Way to go!

Not a bad way to start a day.

Not a bad way at all.

Helping ponies is just about my favorite thing to do.

Another satisfied client!

Mm hm!

So who's up next?

Pretty sure it's Zipporwhill.

She needs help reconnecting with her cutie mark:

three puppy paw prints.

When is she swinging by?

Well, I think she should be arriving right about now.

Wow, you are good!

Come on in, Zipporwhill.

OK, so what seems to be the problem exactly?

It's my puppy, Ripley. We used to be so close.

In fact, I got my cutie mark the day I found him

and took him home.

But now, it's like he wants nothing to do with me.

Don't you worry; you've come to the right place.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are on the job.

Trust us, before you know it,

Rarity, what are you doing here?

I am here to spend the day with you!

I'm so excited, I could practically faint.

You don't happen to have a fainting couch in here, do you?

NO!

Of course not! It's a tree house.

That would be très gauche.

Right, well, I sure am happy to see you! And spending the day

with you does sound like a lot of fun, but...

I'm kinda right in the middle of something important.

I have responsibilities and--

Oh...

Go on, Sweetie Belle. We've got this covered.

How often do you get to spend time with your sister?

Yeah, go have fun.

You sure you two can handle our client here?

"Client?" Oh, that is so adorable!

Uh, thanks? I think?

How 'professional'!

You've been acting weird all day.

That's just it! I used to! That's not who I am anymore.

This isn't who I am. My cutie mark must be for something else

because my puppy just doesn't love me anymore!

But it is you. You love puppet shows and dressing up

and taking silly photos and tiny little clown-shaped ice creams!

Really?! If you still think I like doing this stuff,

then maybe you don't know me at all.

Thank you, Twisty, but the hard truth is my sister

is being unappreciative right now.

Hey, Zipporwhill. What are you doing here?

Where are Apple Bloom and Scootaloo?

They're with my puppy.

He seems to like them better than me anyway.

Anger is no excuse for poor manners, after all.

OK. Zipporwhill, what do you see?

That's not what I see. I see a full grown dog.

He's not just bigger, he's older too.

You don't still play with the same toys

from when you were a foal, do you?

Oh. Ohhh! This squeaker is a little small for him now.

It's just hard for me to believe he's not the same

adorable little guy I found anymore.

I understand. But doing things like you used to

won't turn him back into a puppy.

So what do I do?

Treat him like the dog he is

You think so?

I know so!

Rarity!?

Oh, Sweetie Belle. I heard what you said and you are so right.

About the dog?

Yes, but about us, too!

The truth is, I know you're not a little filly anymore.

all of those things together, I... I didn't realize

it was going to be the last, last time.
