Go To

Thankfully, Mrs. Cake has caught Pound's makeshift diaper in his potty. The Cake parents to decide to put Pound back in diapers, and while Mr. Cake puts Pound down for a nap and empties out his potty, Mrs. Cake washes the stuffed animals. They consider enlisting Pinkie Pie's help, but they wonder if she's too tired after her trip— then again, since when do trips make Pinkie Pie tired? Mr. Cake has forgotten to put the toilet down...

Meanwhile, Pumpkin is very bored and wants to do something to stop Pound from using his diapers. She lifts herself out of the playpen and rides on Gummy upstairs to the bathroom. Once she gets to the bathroom, she decides to go through with her plan: use the toilet.

However, once she's on the toilet, she falls in and is convinced that she has to be flushed. After all, isn't that how the toilet works? Whatever goes in must be flushed except for diapers, which don't flush? Pinkie Pie comes in and initially thinks she's hallucinating, but then she sees Pumpkin.

Pinkie Pie dashes out and comes back and fishes Pumpkin out with a plunger.
