On her first day at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, Celestia introduces Twilight to the baby dragon she had hatched during her entrance test. Though Celestia has been taking care of him, she feels that Twilight is ready to help out while she's at the school. The task is daunting to Twilight, trying to keep the baby dragon calm and quiet while trying to balance her studies, and her performance at the school falters, nor is she able to socialize to make friends as the other unicorns distance themselves from her. Her only moments of calm is taking to Smarty Pants when she's alone with the dragon.

The day of the first High Tea arrives, with Twilight's parents, Night Light and Twilight
The dragon suddenly speaks, trying to say he is like Smarty Pants. Twilight realizes the dragon is trying to be understanding and help her calm down, and realizes that Celestia didn't give her the dragon to burden her but to be her first friend. Coming around to appreciate the dragon, she decides to name him after his baby-speak on Smarty Pants's name, calling him Spike. Her parents arrive just as she has reconciled with Spike, and they take the photo of "Twilight's First Friend".
In the present, the other Mane 6 have come around to listen to Twilight's story, and are all touched by it. Spike wakes up, having missed it, but offers him a cocoa along with the others as they head off.
