Lesson Zero (2011)

Nicole Oliver: Princess Celestia

Quotes 

• Twilight Sparkle : My Smarty Pants doll! I enchanted her and now everypony is fighting over her!

  Fluttershy : Why would you enchant your doll?

  Twilight Sparkle : Oh, I had to do something! I had nothing to report to Princess Celestia! I thought if I couldn't find a problem, I'd make a problem! The day is almost over!

  Applejack : Not almost!

  [the sun finishes setting] 

  Princess Celestia : [stern voice; she appears hovering above the chaos]  Twilight Sparkle!

  Applejack : Whoa nelly.

• Princess Celestia : Looks like you all learned a pretty valuable lesson today.

  Twilight's friends : Mmhmm.

  Princess Celestia : Very well. I'll forget Twilight's punishment, on one condition: from this day forth, I'd like you all to report to me your findings on the magic of friendship, when, and only when, you happen to discover them.

  Twilight's friends : [cheering] 

• Twilight Sparkle : Princess Celestia, wait! How did you know I was in trouble?

  Princess Celestia : Your friend Spike made me aware that you were letting your fears get the best of you. I commend him for taking your feelings seriously. Now, if you will all excuse me, I must return to Canterlot. I'm expecting some mail.

  [she flies away and teleports out of sight] 

  Applejack : Y'all heard the Princess. Spike, take a letter.

  [clears throat] 

  Applejack : "Dear Princess Celestia, we're writin' to you because today we all learned a little somethin' about friendship.

  Fluttershy : "We learned that you should take your friends' worries seriously.

  Rainbow Dash : "Even if you don't think that she has anything to worry about.

  Rarity : "And that you shouldn't let your worries turn a small problem...

  Pinkie Pie : "... into an enormously huge entire-town-in-total-chaos Princess-has-to-come-and-save-the-day problem.

  Fluttershy : "Signed, your loyal subjects.

  Spike : "P.S. Obviously Spike did not have to learn a lesson, because he is the best, most awesome friend a pony could ask for. Unlike everypony else, he took things seriously, and-" Eheh... uh... yeah... I'll just, um...

  [he crosses out what he last wrote, and everyone giggles. Spike snorts in mild frustration]
