Chapter 33: Chapter 32: The Cutie Pox
Previous Chapter Next ChapterHello everypony, this is your Supreme Dictator again and you have all been good so I have decided that you have proven you are worthy of hearing my synopsis of The Cutie Pox.
Well here we go again, the Cutie Mark Crusaders are now going to be trying to get their cutie marks in bowling. I honestly think these girls have no clue as to what getting a cutie mark is really about. I guess I should consider myself lucky that overthrowing the government is not in their cutie mark planning so this will make for some funny moments.
Well first off those silly little fillies are arguing over what their new name will be once they get their marks. Sorry girls, but you already tried arguing and that didn't get you your marks. Well once they decide on The Bowling Dolls they head in but I have some advice. Girls, before you give yourselves a new name at least get your damn marks first and I have a feeling that this will be another epic fail on your parts.
First up is Sweetie Belle. Her attempt looks simple enough but I couldn't help but shake my head in disappointment in how she did it. Pushing the ball with your nose Sweetie Belle, seriously? Well it ended up just as I thought, it went in the gutter. Epic fail number one. Now Scootaloo decides to give it a shot and I know this can only end in disaster. Kicking that ball ain't going to do it and of course it doesn't. Memo to Scootaloo, keep the ball in your own lane and in your own gutter. Epic fail number two. Now up is Apple Bloom. First thing I have to say is "gross!" Memo to self: Never go bowling with Apple Bloom, slobber covered bowling balls are something that an Alicorn Goddess should not be touching. She spits the ball out and we hear pins fall over. Ponies are celebrating over a bowling cutie mark. Could she have done it! Could this be the death of that secret society? Well Apple Bloom looks at her flank and unfortunately for her, it was somepony else that got a strike and a mark and unfortunately for me, I still have a secret society I have to be on the lookout for.
Well the girls leave the bowling alley still markless but in different moods. Despite the fact that she will likely be banned from the bowling alley, Scootaloo seems happy. Despite only getting gutter balls, Sweetie Belle is still happy. Apple Bloom however, is in a bad mood. Perhaps it is because she still has no mark OR it could be because Mr. Kingpin made her clean the lane they used after her slobber covered balls left spit all over the place.
Pout, pout, pout, is that all Apple Bloom knows how to do? Rather than running off and making plans to overthrow me on her own, why doesn't she just have fun with her friends? Maybe this is a good thing, running off into the Everfree Forest is not a wise decision for a filly and if she were to fall prey to the timberwolves, there would be one less threat to me and the Filly Illuminati would likely disband.
Does that filly not watch where she is going? She falls and breaks a tooth! Luckily for her Zecora shows up just in time to take her to her hut, give her some medicine and fix her problem. Perhaps that wasn't such a wise idea. While Apple Bloom did get her chipped tooth fixed, she begins to wonder about what all sorts of tonics Zecora has and could possible make. Luckily for everypony, Zecora lets the filly know that she can not make a cutie mark appear. Now everypony and everyzebra has told Apple Bloom that she will have to wait.
I'm sitting up here watching everything unfold and I think that perhaps this will be the end of it and ready myself for lunch but then something horrible happens. Zecora leaves her hut to go get some flowers or herbs and she leaves Apple Bloom in her hut alone! For the love of Faust, what in Equestria is she thinking? Now I know some impending disaster is going to happen. I'll just have my lunch delivered to me so I don't miss any of the action.
Well it must be the next day when Apple Bloom shows up to school with a brand new cutie mark! She did it, she did it! Finally, that secret society will die! Your Sun Goddess shall reign forever! Woo-hoo! Now that I can rest at ease I can sit back, watch the show and laugh at the shenanigans that are ahead.
Well what her cutie mark is, I'm not sure. It looks rather boring so maybe her talent is something boring like spelling or making rings but to come out it is spinning a hoop around her waist. Seriously, that is something to celebrate? I'll tell you one thing, she sure the hell ain't going to engage in any gainful employment. The only way she'll be able to get a job is if she decides to join the circus and live no better than those disgusting carnies that work the cheat stands at carnivals.
Yeah seeing her classmates do terrible trying to spin hoops around their waists did make me chuckle a bit but what really made me laugh was when she decided to act like she's all shit and fly up like a helicopter with a hoop on her tail. Suddenly another cutie mark shows up and she crashes! A second cutie mark? This can't be good so I get myself a biohazard suit because I know what she has and if the virus she has were to get carried by the winds up here, Yours Truly could get really sick and Luna would have to take over for us. Faust I hope not, Luna tends to do nothing but put a strain on foreign relations when she handles things so I have to make sure I don't get sick.
So now she can spin plates on sticks too, big deal. Yeah I know for your common hack that is special but when you're an Alicorn, shit like that isn't impressive, not to mention it is LAME! Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is so special she has to lead a parade through the streets. I am utterly shocked by what ponies in backwater towns celebrate. If a pony were to suddenly develop two cutie marks here, they would be locked up somewhere that said pony would be isolated from others until their cutie pox went away.
Ok Applejack, we all get it. You don't need to keep on saying you're proud of Apple Bloom for catching a disease....I mean getting two cutie marks. Now things are going to get fun! Applejack can't sleep and discovers her little sister has three cutie marks. Shit's getting real now. Now they know something is wrong and who do they take her to, Twilight! That's right, they take her to my prize pupil to see if she can help. You know I respect you more than the others Applejack but if you need to take your sister anywhere, it is the hospital! Twilight is not a damn doctor.
Luckily for everypony Spike finds the right book and it now they know what is wrong with Apple Bloom, cutie pox. Rather than getting her isolated so she won't get sick they lead her down main street! Oh wonderful, isn't this just dandy! Now the EHO (Equestrian Health Organization) is going to have to cordon off Ponyville and if I were to need the element bearers to save Equestria, we'd be up Shit Creek without a paddle!
Oh boy, now it is cutie mark city for Apple Bloom! Mark after mark after mark shows up on her. It is kind of like what happened when Rainbow Dash was trying to get the filly ready to go to Diamond Bitch's party but in reverse. Here it is get the mark and then do the completely useless and moronic task. Finally the ponies in that town realize she is cursed and when Spike tells them what is really wrong, they run for their lives! The reaction of the flower girls is priceless, THE HORROR, OH THE HORROR!
Finally Zecora shows up. Obviously she has some sort of plan to handle this but at first she wants answers out of Apple Bloom, she knew she stole her flowers. One more cutie mark for Apple Bloom, a tornado. This has to be by far the worst one for her. Zecora plants the truth seeds and finally Apple Bloom realizes that eating crow and owning up to her mistakes is more important than cutie marks. A wonderfully majestic plant grows and Apple Bloom eats the plant. End result, Apple Bloom returns to normal, she apologizes to everypony and everything seems to be fine....ALMOST.
Since she is a blank flank again, I must now worry about those three trying to dethrone me in the name of getting their cutie marks. Wait a minute, why the hell am I so scared of a little earth pony filly, a unicorn filly that hasn't figured out how to use her magic and a filly pegasus who can't fly? Perhaps I'm letting my sister's paranoid nature rub off on me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah Apple Bloom, you claim you've learned that good things come to those who wait. I call bullshit on that and I am right. Not even five seconds after the letter being sent, those three decide to go try and get potion making cutie marks. I do hope Zecora just tells them to get lost. Maybe someday they will realize that simply trying any old thing will not get you a cutie mark....key word, maybe.
Well after the episode ended my sister and I headed to Ponyville to go bowling and guess what, I bowled a 300 game! So I think you should be proud of me. I kept my balls out of the gutter and I actually managed to keep my mind out of the gutter in this synopsis. Let's celebrate by having Pinkie throw an "After a perfect game of bowling" party. There will be cake, ice cream and plenty of dancing. Wait a minute, that sounds boring as hell so maybe I'll skip this one. Perhaps I should take Twilight to Canterlot and dance with her instead!
Oh shit....there goes my sex free synopsis. Hey I tried, I get an A for effort, right?
