The sun shone down on Sweet Apple Acres. Not a cloud could be found in the sky.
Big Macintosh cantered outside happily, the small plastic bag in his mouth. He was elated, and started dancing around with his marijuana.
He was dancing, when he saw Apple Bloom trot outside. She was going to see him with his drugs!
Big Macintosh galloped away, to the back of the orchard, where nobody dared to go, because it was dark and full of spiky branches. He placed his marijuana on the ground next to a particularly ugly tree, as if it were a glass figurine.
He cantered back to the fields in front of his home.
"Hey Big Macintosh!" Apple Bloom greeted him gaily. "Ya ready for cider season today?"
Big Macintosh gulped. He forgot! It was cider season again!
"What's wrong, brother? You look nervous!"
"Uh, nnnnnope!" Big Macintosh told her.
"Ok! Lets start pickin' apples then! And ya better pick extra, because Apple Jack is sick today!" Apple Bloom trotted away into the orchard.
After a long time of picking and squeezing apples, they had lots of cider. There was already a crowd accumulating at the gate.
"'K every pony, cider season has officially started!" Apple Bloom shouted over the commotion. She and Big Mac pushed barrels of cider onto a wooden table, and set out glasses.
Thirty minutes passed. "Sorry, y'all!" Apple Bloom announced. "We've run out of cider! Cider season's over!"
"Yyyyyup!" Big Macintosh added.
"NOOOO!" Rainbow Dash shouted.
Every pony started to leave, when all of a sudden, the ground started to rumble. Every pony turned around to see what was causing the rumbling. It was the Flim Flam Brothers, and the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 again!
Their giant machine stopped in front of the orchard.
"Say hello to the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 2.0!" Flim shouted, after a few minutes of repetitive song.
"We agreed on the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 7000!" Flam whispered to his brother.
"Oh, uh, yes! That's what I meant!"
Flam donned a competitive face. "And we challenge you to another cider-off!"
