Quotes 

• Twilight Sparkle : When I told the Princess that I was moving the party to Canterlot, she was kind enough to offer us the Canterlot castle ballroom!

  Pinkie Pie : Isn't it fancy pants?

  Rarity : Fancypants? Where? Ahh, I mean, where did you find the time to put up all these decorations? Haha.

  Pinkie Pie : Oh, I never leave home without my party cannon!

  [she pulls out her party cannon and fires it, instantly decorating the ballroom] 

• Rarity : [starting to write a letter]  Dear Princess Celestia, I wanted to tell you about the important lesson I learned during my visit.

  Princess Celestia : [walking up behind her]  Now that I would like to hear.

  Rarity : I learned that no matter where you go in life, you should never forget that you are the product of your home and your friends. And that is something always to be proud of, no matter what.

  Princess Celestia : Hm, a very valuable lesson to have learned.

• Rarity : [Princess Celestia leads Rarity into a fancy bedroom in the Canterlot castle]  Here? I get to stay *here*?

  Princess Celestia : Twilight Sparkle said you were coming to Canterlot for a visit, and asked if I might accommodate you.

  Rarity : Thank you so much, Princess.

  Princess Celestia : You're very welcome.

  Rarity : No, *really*. This is so nice of you.

  Princess Celestia : It's nothing, really.

  Rarity : Oh, but it isn't nothing, it's everything! I-I just don't know what to say but "thank you." Thank you!

  [she begins to repeatedly kiss the gold coverings on Celestia's hooves] 

  Rarity : Thank you... thank you... thank you, thank you, thank you...

  Princess Celestia : You are very we...

  Rarity : Thank you!

• Fancypants : [referring to Rarity's friends who have crashed the garden party]  You know these ponies?

  Rarity : Yes. Yes, I do know them. They may not be as sophisticated as some of you Canterlot ponies, but they are my best friends. And they are without a doubt the most important ponies I know.

  Jet Set : Important ponies? These ruffians?

  Upper Crust : Don't make me laugh!

  [they both laugh] 

  Fancypants : I, for one, find them charmingly rustic.

  [ponies gasping] 

  Fancypants : And I think the dress you made for your friend is lovely. Mmhm, I dare say every mare in Canterlot will be wanting one.

  Upper Crust : Oh, I'd like to place my order *right now*.

  Jet Set : I think you should get two.

  Fancypants : Er, yes, now then. How about you introduce me to your friends?

  Rarity : With pleasure!

• Fancypants : [Rarity bumps into Fancypants due to carrying many packages]  I say, that's one way to make an introduction.

  Rarity : Oh goodness, I am so sorry. I didn't see you there, I've just got so many bags and I was trying to get back to my suite at the castle and...

  Fancypants : You're staying at the castle?

  Rarity : Wh- The Princess invited me to stay in one of the suites.

  Fancypants : You know the Princess?

  Fleur de Lis : [examining one of the bags]  Hmm, a pony with expensive tastes, I see?

  Rarity : Oh, it's for an ensemble I'm making for a friend. Her birthday is in a few days.

  [pant] 

  Rarity : Again, I am really sorry I bumped into you.

  Fancypants : I'm not! Heheh, you are obviously somepony worth bumping into! Listen, I have a VIP box reserved at the Wonderbolts Derby this afternoon. Would you, would you be so kind as to join me and a few of my companions there?

  Rarity : Me?

  Fancypants : But of course my dear.

  Rarity : Well, I'm, uh, ah- no- sure.

  Fancypants : We'd love to see you there, uh...?

  Rarity : Rarity.

  Fancypants : Rarity.

• Rarity : [debating to herself in her room]  Pro: Seeing the Derby from a VIP box is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Con: Going to the Derby cuts into the amount of time I have to finish Twilight's outfit. Pro: Fancypants is the most important pony in Canterlot. His stamp of approval could mean big things for me here. Con: Twilight's party might not be as sophisticated as the Derby, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't put all of my energy into creating her birthday ensemble. My Ponyville friends will appreciate my hard work more than anypony. I'd hate to let them down. And I won't. Opal, I am going to the Wonderbolts Derby as a guest of Fancypants!

  [excited giggling] 

• Wonderbolts Derby announcer : Fillies and gentlecolts, welcome to the Wonderbolts Derby! The competitors are taking their places at the starting line and the race will begin momentarily!

  Fancypants : I'll be rooting for Rapid Fire, of course. He's sure to take home the grand prize.

  Rarity : I don't think he has a chance against Fleetfoot.

• Rarity : [to her cat]  Looks like we'll be spending a few more days here, Opalescence. Turns out bumping into Fancypants like that was the best thing that's ever happened to me. Of course, finishing Twilight's dress in time for her birthday party is still my top priority, but I can't possibly disappoint the Canterlot elite by rejecting their invitations now, can I?

• Twilight Sparkle : [sees the plain and simple yellow dress that Rarity didn't have time to finish]  Is... that my dress?

  Rarity : [uncertainly]  Yes.

  Twilight Sparkle : It's so simple. So practical.

  [Rarity gets nervous, Twilight smiles] 

  Twilight Sparkle : So me! It's the perfect dress for my birthday party! I love it!

  Rarity : You don't know how glad I am to hear you say that!

• Rarity : [running back and forth between the elite Canterlot garden party and Twilight's birthday party inside the ballroom; to Fancypants and Upper Crust]  I think I left the bathwater running in my suite.

  Rarity : [inside, she finds Twilight and Rainbow dancing up a storm]  I really should go check on Opal.

  Rarity : [outside again; she points off into the distance]  Is that Princess Celestia?

  Rarity : [inside, she leans close toward Twilight, who keeps dancing and blowing on a party favor; whispering]  I need to use the little fillies' room.

  Rarity : [outside again]  Can I get anypony more punch?

  Rarity : [inside again; now the back-and-forth scramble is taking its toll on her]  I... have to go to... do the...

  [outside] 

  Rarity : ... thing with the stuff, you know, uh...

  Rainbow Dash : [back inside, Rarity has a croquet mallet in her mouth]  Uh, what's with the croquet mallet?

  Rarity : Wha cwokay mauwet?

  Rainbow Dash : Duh! The one in your mouth?

  Rarity : [realizes her blunder and drops the mallet]  Oh! That croquet mallet! I... well, I, you know, the truth is... the truth is...
