After falling through a dark portal, Apple Bloom awakens yet again, feeling rather frustrated. She runs to the mirror and is relieved to see that her flank is blank, but when she turns around, a cutie mark suddenly appears, and it changes every time she turns around. Fed up with the seemingly never-ending nightmares, Apple bloom flees from her room, lamenting that she never wants to see another cutie mark, and finds herself in the dark forest once more. There, she encounters the shadowy figure again and blames it for her troubles. Just then, Princess Luna appears; she tells Apple Bloom that the mysterious figure is Apple Bloom's own shadow and that her nightmares are coming from her own anxiety. Luna adds that Apple Bloom is not the only one with such anxiety and shows her that Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo have been having nightmares of their own. In order to finally put an end to the nightmares, Luna gathers all three of them together, and Apple Bloom calls a dream meeting of the Crusaders to order. She says that they shouldn't have to worry about getting their cutie marks because they need to be themselves first and foremost. The Crusaders also conclude that Babs Seed must be having similar worries, and they agree to send her a care package to let her know that she's not alone--after they wake up, that is.

Absentee Actor only applies if there\'s a reasonable expectation that a given main character would appear. That\'s only true of Applejack in this episode, and since she does appear, the trope doesn\'t apply.

The next morning, Apple Bloom wakes up for breakfast, only to discover that she got her cutie mark overnight! It appears to be a pest-catching cutie mark, and a pest pony suddenly arrives to employ Apple Bloom in the capture of twittermites, small swarms of bugs that generate lightning. Apple Bloom proves to be a natural at it, but Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon mock her for having a "lame" cutie mark. Hurt, Apple Bloom runs into a dark forest, where a voice tells her that if she doesn't like her cutie mark, she can always have it removed. With a gust of wind, Apple Bloom's pest-catching cutie mark is suddenly gone. Just then, a swarm of twittermites begins shocking everything in Ponyville. Apple Bloom tries to catch them, to no avail, forced to watch as the twittermites destroy Sweet Apple Acres. The twittermites then blast Apple Bloom with a lightning bolt, only for Apple Bloom to wake up back in her bed.
Apple Bloom goes downstairs again, but this time with a different cutie mark, for potion making. She tells the other Cutie Mark Crusaders, who are initially happy for her, but then kick her out of the Crusaders for having her
