In the aftermath of Discord's attack on Ponyville, things slowly return to normal. However, there are some things that never seem to change: such as the competitive nature between Applejack and Rainbow Dash. The two friends and rivals come to Shining Armor with a request to help decide which of them is the better athlete. Will the two come to a peaceful -- if disappointing -- answer, or will the rest of Ponyville get caught up in the event?
Meanwhile, new faces are showing up in town, and Twilight Sparkle is put in a situation that could be uncomfortable for her when she finds herself trying to help a rather boastful filly.
