Synopsis
- Episode 1 The ponies are getting Paradise Estate ready with a big finish flag for the Big Brother Ponies to come home too, they’ve been away for a year racing. Surprise and Buttons are hanging balloons when they hear a merry go around circus tune. A cloaked woman called St Ambula is playing the music. She pulls out a bird called Keri and forces her to sing. Everyone but the baby ponies whom the song does not effect, Truly whom was playing music and Spike become hypnotized and walk over to the woman. St Ambula in the ponies’ presence starts to become younger. St Ambula then magic’s up a circus and she leads the ponies to it. The Big Brother Ponies finally make it back to Dream Valley, Paradise Estate and cross the finish line together. They wonder where everyone is, Truly finds them and explains what’s going on. The Big Brother Ponies then race off to save the My Little Ponies. St Ambula chains a pony’s foot and proclaims now she can make all this real. Arriving at the castle Cupcake finds herself in a wonder kitchen, Posey finds herself in the gardener’s delight and Lickety Split finds herself at an all you can eat ice cream bar. The ponies seem to be enjoying themselves in this fictional circus. St Ambula orders the reluctant bird to sing again and this time it takes Truly. The baby ponies follow along with the also hypnotized Big Brother Ponies. The baby ponies and Spike roll a giant snow ball off a mountain onto the Big Brother Ponies waking them from the trance. Just as Truly enters a golden door. The Golden door then transforms into a wooden door with the jaws of a crocodile above and below it.
- Episode 2 The Big Brother Ponies send the baby ponies back up the hill while they open the huge door. They walk in to a circus where all the My Little Ponies are looking grey and old. Lots of stuff to interest the Big Brother ponies then starts appearing from a crack in the floor to tempt the big brother ponies in to staying. They’re not fooled and St Ambula gets the bird to sing again where upon the Big Brother Ponies join the My Little Ponies in this circus. The bird escapes, out side she finds the baby ponies and she explains to the baby ponies what St Ambula is up to, which is stealing their youth and magic. The Baby Ponies get Keri to help rescues the other ponies, Keri goes back in to the circus and screeches, everyone remember what’s happening but they’re still old and none of the unicorns have return. When St Ambula appears and starts to attack them using the buildings around them, three of the Big Brother Ponies dive into the hole St Ambula appeared from with the bird Keri while the rest keep the others safe. They find the unicorns chained together and all their magic is being sucked into a crystal. The bird is captured again and St Ambula seals her beak shut. St Ambula also chains the Big Brother Ponies to a wall but Slugger the Big Brother pony, breaks free and smashes the crystal. The magic ends, the ponies youth is returned and St Ambula escapes off into the night.
