Transcript:DM: A new week, a new session! Let’s get to it. PREVIOUSLY, IN EQUESTRIA…
Rainbow Dash: We went out to- MM-MMPH! FF-HEY!
Pinkie Pie: Got her! Go, go, go!
DM: Thank you kindly. The party, along with Applejack’s sister Apple Bloom, had an encounter with Zecora – a zebra alchemist that had the entire town of Ponyville utterly afraid of her. The truth turned out to be slightly more complicated: Zecora was researching the cure to Poison Joke, and using the town as her personal pool of test subjects. The party was cursed due to her actions, but they persuaded her to work cooperatively to finish the cure and then turn herself in for her crimes. The cure was successful, Zecora was taken away to Canterlot, and Ponyville has been peaceful for the week since! There! Done!
Rainbow Dash: PFF- GAH! What the heck?!
Pinkie Pie: Now, what have we learned about derailing the recap?
