As it continues thundering, inside the castle, the clock hits midnight. Inside a room with a fireplace lit on, there is a coffin on a long strange table. The top itself reads "Jekyll Doofenshmirtz". It opens up showing a corpse of some sort of unicorn holding onto some sort of box.

A figure tries to get the box and begins to lift it, but the corpse pulls the box back, much to the pony's annoyance. He tries again but the corpse won't let go. Finally, the figure spread the hooves apart, causing the dead corpse to let the object go.

The pony, a lawyer named Virtuous Honor", takes the box over to a small table. The Pegasus pony proceed in taking a tiny key out of his vest pocket before unlocking the metal box.

Nine ponies are nearby, waiting anxious for the contents...of the will of Baron Jekyll Doofenshmirtz. They have waited a long time for this moment to hear what the old pony is leaving.

Virtuous messes with the lock with a moment. And each time he tries to, another pony, Jet Set, groans in frustration. He snaps, "Stupid fumbling pony! For a lawyer, he has no idea what he's doing! Why, with my magic, I would've rip that box out of his wings!"

"Jet, sshhhhh!" Jet Set's wife Upper Crust shushes him sternly.

"Can you hurry up, you idiot?!" A suited unicorn named Prince Blueblood exclaims impatiently.

"Quiet, Blueblood!" His girlfriend Alice Bloom snaps to him. "We have waited 70 years for this moment...and another few seconds won't hurt."

"If that's going to be that case, then I would be dead by then."

"Shhh!"

"Err, Cadance? What if he leaves you out?" A unicorn named Shining Armor ask his wife nervously. "I mean...bad enough Twiley didn't show up."

"Relax, I'm sure Jekyll wouldn't leave anything out." Shining's wife Princess Cadance assures Shining with a chuckle. "Of course, I am not expecting anything but at least it’s better than Twilight getting stuck further with our family’s history being tainted as it is."

"I hardly remember him, daddy." A unicorn named Princess Platinum said in concern to her father King Bullion. "Does he really like me when I was a foal?"

"Like an uncle." Bullion assures his daughter while nuzzling her a bit.

The last pony in the room, a sunglasses wearing unicorn named DJ Pon-3 AKA Vinyl Scratch, is muttering to herself. Even she can't wait to see if Jekyll left anything for her or not.

Soon Virtuous got the lock open and takes out a parchment. Clearing his throat, the lawyer splutters a few time before speaking, "'I, Jekyll Doofenshmirtz', in my 80 third year of life, do hereby make, publish and declare the following statements as and for my last will and testament. I direct my executor, Virtuous Honor, to inform and bring forth the ponies previously divulged to him that they will hear the final disposition of my property...and my own voice'."

The ponies hear that, looking curious as Virtuous continues, "'Such disposition is to happen at the hour of 12 o'clock on my 100th birthday. If all the conditions set forth are met, prepare yourselves to hear once more...as well as the last time...the authenticity of my own voice'."

With that done, Virtuous nods to a clerk, Fancypants, who is nearby. The unicorn clerk uses his magic to put a needle onto the record on an old Victoria. The record scratches a bit before a familiar voice not heard since before his death is heard.

"So how do you work this stupid thing? Where? In here? So I talk into it, right? All right. Am I close enough? All right, now get out of my way you idiot!" Jekyll Doofenshmirtz is heard on the player as he tries to figure out what to do here. After the since dead unicorn is heard clearing his voice, he spoke in a deep, majestic voice, "Greetings. As you know, the once proud name of Doofehsnmirtz has long since been dragged into the abyss of shame by my only son, Heinz. Why, there was a time when the family name itself made dreams of virtue, honor, and devotion! Now, no guilty, malignity or mercy can be found to equal mine. And the catalogue of sins of my once devoted son will not cease to rankle in my wounds until death shall close them forever -- so supremely frightfulis the effect of any pony endeavor to mock the stupendous mechanism of the Creator of the world. Okay, got that, right? You got 'rankle in my wounds' right? Honestly, if you mess this up, I will make sure you die before I do! Ahem. Now for the disposition of my estate."

The ponies waited anxiously as Jekyll continues as each pony in the room is mentioned, "To my cousins Blueblood and Alice Bloom...who got a weird relationship, but that isn't any of my darn business! Anyway, to my cousin Jet Set and his wife Upper Crust...to my niece Cadance who is now a princess and adopted niece to Princesses Celestia and Luna of Equestria, which made them my relatives of sort, but she's adopted so why do I care? Anyway, my dear niece Vinyl Scratch...and lastly, my good old friend King Bullion and his charming daughter Princess Platinum. You, equally, will be given, devised and bequeathed, absolutely and without any restrictions at all, every property of every sort and description, whether real, personal, mixed or whatever I can think up of, to which my estate shall be entitled."

The couples begins hugging each other as is Bullion and Platinum, with DJ Pon-3 hugging only herself. Looks like its official. Jekyll is leaving them everything to share...at least now the old unicorn can rest in peace, knowing that his property will be given to the right ponies...so to speak.

"However..." Jekyll's voice added. This caused the inheritors to look up in surprise and concern. When someone said "however" like that, it means there's a catch here!

Scratching noises are heard with the needle reaching the end of the first side. Fancypants uses his magic to lift the arm off and turns the record over. He apologizes, "Sorry. It's a seventy-eight."

Fancypants put the needle onto the record so that the will reading will resume, "...unless...my remaining heir, my great-granddaughter Twilight Sparkle, who I haven't seen before but I know of regardless, at the time of this recording, 10 years of age and is residing in America with my granddaughter Twilight Velvet...has embraced Medicine as her career and acquitted herself with some measure of esteem. If so, then she I will leave...everything."

The heirs looks concerned and expressionless. Shining chuckles a bit, "Oh yeah, Twiley, you just got the boatload."

"She gets my castle, along with the laboratory, the public and private library with every notes and journals contained within, all acreage surrounding the estate, as well as all income and principle therefore...in a hope that someday, another Doofenshmirtz will lift our family name to an eminence of dignity as well as sanity that it once have. Now then, for my dear friends and relations, if this were to come to pass, I know that you will completely understand. For the road to salvation and repentance must be paved up the avenue of my soul, and not up yours, up yours, up yours, up yours, up yours..."

Fancypants quickly removes the needle from the record which is finished, or so to keep Jekyll from saying "up yours" to everyone else. As he puts the record away, Virtuous spoke up, "Mr. Fancypants! Do you make sure to tell Twilight Sparkle of this assembly as well as the time and place it shall happen? I don't see her here."

"Yes, I did, sir." Fancypants explains as he takes a cablegram out of one of his pockets. "However I did received a cable this morning. She said that she won't be coming."

"Oh well, figures, my little sister is trying to distance herself from the name Doofenshmirtz for a long time." Shining admits with a shrug while Cadance looks concerned. "She did good for herself, I will give her that."

"But doesn't she know how important this is?" Virtuous ask Fancypants and Shining in concern. Twilight must at least come to at least hear the will reading, and for everyone to see if Twilight has indeed done what Jekyll wanted her to do.

"Yes, she was told, but the mare said that she must give a lecture at the John Hopkins University." Fancypants explains to the lawyer with a shrug. "Couldn't cancel it and besides, she didn't want to come even if she wasn't doing so."

"Oh, what lecture that could be more important than the will of Baron Jekyll Doofenshmirtz?!"

"She said and I quote 'Functional areas of the cerebrum in relation to the skull'."

Blueblood yelps as he passes out quickly upon hearing that. If what Fancypants said is true, then Twilight is already the only heir to Jekyll's will.

"Wait, hang on. Mr. Honor, sir? Is Twilight a medical doctor by any chance?" Princess Platinum asked sweetly. She is hoping that isn't the case.

To Platinum's dismay, the lawyer answers, "Yes, she is, Princess Platinum."

"But...what any special degree of eminence does she have?"

"Miss Sparkle is the fifth leading authority in her field."

"AKA Twiley is a medical doctor, a very smart egghead too!" Shining admits with a smirk to Princess Platinum who fell onto her flank in despair.

"Aww, horse feathers." Princess Platinum groans in despair. Twilight has completed what Jekyll wanted...and is the only heir, getting everything! To her, that isn't fair at all!

"Mr. Fancypants? Go at once to present Dr. Sparkle with the details of her inheritance." Virtuous said to Fancypants sternly. "Don't worry about paying, the estate will pay for all of that."

"Wait, I object, Virtuous Honor!" Cadance exclaims in concern to the lawyer. "Not that I am being a creep, but Twilight shouldn't have to put up with a name that has been tainted by Heinz! Also, if Twilight does care for her family, though I know she loves me, Shining, and her parents, she could've at least be here with those of us who has some respect. Nothing against Jekyll or my sister in law, but we should not bother with the afterthoughts of a very old unicorn and not bother bringing her into this!"

"Princess Cadance, while I respect your adopted royal family, the foundation of civilization rests upon adherence to the law. As they say in the game, the law is the law." Virtuous remarks with a shrug. This causes DJ Pon-3 to mumbles a bit and hits the back of her head on a wall behind her. "Mr. Fancypants! You know what to do?"

"Yes, sir." Mr. Fancypants said, giving a bow to the lawyer.

"I have taken an oath that each letter of this testament shall be executed...and by the Herd, it will be done!"

Everone yelps as the lid of Jekyll Doofenshmirtz slams shut by itself. Looks like the dead agrees with that too!
