One morning, Rarity is awoken by Sweetie Belle's [[LethalChef attempt at cooking her breakfast in bed.]] Before they can begin arguing, however, they're interrupted by their parents, who have arrived on a week's vacation along with Sweetie Belle. When Sweetie Belle tries to help her big sister with the breakfast, she's turned away for most of the work, and tries various methods of making herself useful to Rarity. Unsurprisingly, they all end in disaster, and before long Rarity is on her last nerve.

''Sweetie Belle comes up with an idea to celebrate sisterly unity in an impromptu party without much planning, and when Rarity decides not to be part of the celebration, Sweetie Belle becomes angry and disowns her as a friend.''

This episode aired on TheHub on [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/10/rumor-episode-5-sisterhooves-social.html November 5th 2011]].

''Sweetie Belle comes up with an idea to celebrate sisterly unity in an impromptu party without much planning, and when One morning, Rarity decides not to be part of the celebration, is awoken by Sweetie Belle's [[LethalChef attempt at cooking her breakfast in bed.]] Before they can begin arguing, however, they're interrupted by their parents, who have arrived on a week's vacation along with Sweetie Belle. When Sweetie Belle tries to help her big sister with the breakfast, she's turned away for most of the work, and tries various methods of making herself useful to Rarity. Unsurprisingly, they all end in disaster, and before long Rarity is on her last nerve.

When Sweetie Belle leaves, upset by her inability to spend time with her big sister, she runs into Applebloom, who suggests the two enter the Sisterhooves social, an annual tag-team competition. Rarity refuses, however, and tensions boil over causing Sweetie Belle and Rarity to disown one another as sisters. An angry Sweetie Belle leaves the boutique and heads to Sweet Apple Acres, where she discovers the excellent relationship between Applejack and Applebloom. Applejack invites her to help with the chores, more of a game given the overall light-hearted mood, and enjoys herself.

While her sister is having fun with the Apples, Rarity muses over her fashion, and slowly begins to realize she misses Sweetie Belle more than she thought. Eventually, she finds Sweetie Belle's gem-encrusted drawing of the two, and realizes her mistakes in arguing with her sister. When she arrives at the farm, however, Sweetie Belle gives her the cold shoulder, and decides to 'adopt' Applejack as her big sister, much to the confusion of both Rarity and Applejack (and annoyance of Applebloom) Rarity's attempts to convince Sweetie Belle to return backfire when the filly calls her out on "wanting [Sweetie Belle] to go home to do what [Rarity] wants to do", and when Applejack points out that the two sisters need to work together, Rarity realizes her mistakes and gets an idea.

Come the day of the Sisterhooves Social, Applebloom "gives" Applejack to Sweetie Belle to enter the contest (for "'''ONE. DAY'''"). Applejack falls in a mudhole and
becomes angry covered in mud early on, but the two manage to make it through the entire obstacle course, just barely losing to a pair of magenta ponies. As they celebrate, however, Sweetie Belle realizes the person she was racing with was actually a mud-covered Rarity, having swapped places with AJ in the mudhole. Rarity and disowns her as sweetie Belle reconcile, and the two write a friend.''
