The Flutter Ponies have invited Cupcake, Buttons, Fizzy, Surprise, Gusty, Baby Cuddles, Spike, and the Bushwoolies to Flutter Valley for a celebration. Meanwhile, in the Volcano of Gloom, the wicked witch Hydia vows to make the Ponies pay for stopping the Smooze and sends her daughters Reeka and Draggle to capture the Little Ponies. Reeka enchants flowers to grow into lassos, and they succeed in capturing them, but before they can get far, the Flutter Ponies come to their aid. With their Utter Flutter attack, the Flutter Ponies blow pollen in the witches' faces, allowing the Little Ponies to escape.
Queen Rosedust welcomes the Ponies to the "Sun Tuesday" celebration in honor of the sun and the Sunstone, which keeps Flutter Valley alive by reflecting the sun's rays. Without the Sunstone, the Valley would wither and die. But Reeka and Draggle haven't given up yet, and plan to bury the ponies in a landslide...
This episode contains examples of:
- As You Know: Early in the episode, the ponies discuss where they're going and for what.
- Call-Back: Hydia wants revenge on the ponies, especially the Flutter Ponies, for stopping the Smooze in the movie.
- Retcon: Flutter Valley looks very different here than in the movie, with its lush, flowery hills replaced with a Stonehenge-like structure in the middle of a vast, mostly featureless plain. The population has also been reduced to only the six Flutter Ponies who had individual names in the toyline.
- Took a Level in Dumbass: Draggle seems considerably slower and more incompetent in this storyarc, and often serves as the Butt-Monkey throughout the story.
- Villain Decay: The witches are much less of a threat than they were in the movie, and this time they need to team up with the bees against the Flutter Ponies.
