Rarity's friends all rush towards Carousel Boutique in Ponyville, eager to stop her from reading a review of her new "Rarity for You" shop in Manehattan. The Mane Six are all quite worried that the review will have Rarity and her shop come off badly, so they want to intercept a newspaper before Rarity can read it. But, when they arrive, Rarity already has a paper, and insists on reading the review together.
The Mane Six recall giving interviews to a newspony in a diner, where they retell the opening of the shop. The space Rarity wants to inhabit is beset with a lot of problems, and she insists on opening that night despite the place being dusty. In addition to that, the landlord of the building demands that his daughter, Plaid Stripes, participate in the opening as well, despite having no business sense. Upstairs, on the building's top floor, DJ [=PON-3=] is holding a loud rave that creates a very uncomfortably atmosphere. A family of raccoons has taken hold of the stockroom, and they refuse to leave, despite contaminating the store with the smell of garbage. When Rarity's clothes arrive, they're all a disorganized mess in their boxes, and Coco Pommel says that she can't work the opening as she promised because she's come down with a bad cold. With all of the problems, Rarity begins to stress out, saying that her new opening is doomed.
The Mane Six all offer to help Rarity make the opening work; Pinkie will tone down the music, Applejack will rein in Plaid Stripes, Rainbow Dash will hire new help, Fluttershy will deal with the raccoons, and Twilight Sparkle will organize the clothes, all while Rarity works on a window display. The Mane Six all take to their tasks, but they all keep wondering what Rarity would want, as opposed to what they think would be best. After the trouble continues to get worse, Twilight desperately locks Rarity in the window display with a chair propped up against the door, with the Mane Six surveying the disaster. They finally all admit they only did what they did because of what they hoped Rarity wanted, and realize that Rarity would want them to do it their own way.
As the opening approaches, Rarity is finally let out into the shop, to find that Pinkie hired DJ [=PON-3=] to host music in the store, Applejack has taken Plaid Stripes at her "spoon clothes" idea in a practical way, Rainbow Dash has hired three new assistants, Fluttershy has convinced the raccoons to clean up, and Twilight has neatly organized everything in an easy-to-find way. The review ultimately gives "Rarity for You" a positive rating, despite calling the Mane Six "a group of ne'er-do-wells" who were a bit chaotic in their execution.
!!Tropes in this episode:
* {{Adorkable}}:
** Plaid Stripes, from putting a horn on the door to suggesting the use of spoons for clothing, is this.
** Twilight audibly sweeping to the sounds of the rave above them. Cue the rest of the ponies also doing the same.
* AscendedFanon: The Mane Six missing one of the Pinkie Pie clones has been floating around the fandom for years, amd one shows up in the background here.
* BigEater: Pinkie eats a ''lot'' of food, the bill for which she tries to pass of to the reporter.
* BlatantLies: AJ and Rainbow deny that Twilight's sweeping chant was catchy while they were chanting along.
* BrutalHonesty: Rainbow admits to the reporter that she has no idea how fashion works besides "clothes" and "not clothes".
* CallBack:
** Coco Pommel returns in this episode (as many fans guessed), although she is stuck with a cold and unable to help Rarity with the opening.
** Pinkie references "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies Too Many Pinkie Pies]]" when Rarity wishes she could make more of herself.
** The "Too Old" pony from the "Perfect Stallion" song appears in the back of the restaurant during the interviews.
* CoolestClubEver: The dance club above Rarity's new store where DJ PON-3 is playing, complete with bouncer. Pinkie ends up bringing the party downstairs to celebrate Rarity's boutique opening.
* ConfessionCam: The interview spots have shades of this, despite not being a reality show.
* ConspicuousTrenchcoat: When Pinkie is talking about the Mirror Pool debacle, a trenchcoat wearing clone is revealed behind her stack of pancakes.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Despite everything, the gang manages to get the store a positive review.
* FinaglesLaw: The store is a dusty mess, Rarity's landlord forces her to hire his daughter, there's a loud club upstairs, Coco is too sick to work the opening, there's a raccoon trio living in a back room, and the clothes Rarity had shipped from Ponyville are all disorganized. Luckily the group, despite having to lock Rarity in the window display, manage to make it work out OK.
* FromBadToWorse: When the Mane Six try to handle things the way they think Rarity would want, it ends up with them intentionally locking Rarity in the window display while they sort the mess out.
* GoodAngelBadAngel: Pinkie Pie gets some that look like Rarity when deciding what to do about the rave above Rarity's store.
* HeliCritter: Pinkie once again uses her tail as a propeller. This time, used to sweep floors.
* HowWeGotHere: The episode begins in Ponyville after the events in Manehattan take place and the rest takes place in a flashback of the Mane Six (and various others) are being interviewed.
* HypocriticalHumor: Applejack and Rainbow Dash mock Twilight for the sweeping chant despite chanting as well.
* ItMakesSenseInContext: At one point, Rarity wishes that she could have more copies of herself to lighten the workload. Pinkie Pie then narrates that that leads to 50 Pinkie Pie clones stuck in a room watching paint dry.
* IntrepidReporter: Buried Lede interviews Rarity, her friends, and everyone associated possible in the opening of the new store.
* {{Nepotism}}: Mr. Stripes the landlord forces Rarity to hire his daughter, Plaid Stripes, or he'll raise the rent for her store.
* OhCrap: Pinkie has one when she eats three times her weight in food... and then sees the bill.
* RascallyRaccoon: Rarity finds some raccoons in a back room and asks Fluttershy to find a way to deal with them.
%%RealityEnsues
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]. Even though Plaid Stripes works in Rarity's store due to the influence of her father being the landlord, she doesn't flaunt this and honestly tries to do her best, despite her [[{{Adorkable}} questionable choices and personality]].
* SequelEpisode: This episode picks up on the plot point started with "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E3TheGiftOfTheMaudPie The Gift of the Maud Pie]]"
* ShoutOut:
** Buried Lede resembles J. Jonah Jameson from the SpiderMan franchise.
** Two of the background ponies seen in the background of the diner the interviews take place resemble [[Film/PulpFiction Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield]].
** The ''Film/PlanesTrainsAndAutomobiles'' background ponies cameo again in the same restaurant.
* SuperOCD: Twilight is in full organizing form, not only does she come up with a chant for sweeping, but she ''begs'' Rarity to help her organize the clothes Rarity had shipped to the store, and later calls the final product some of her best work.
* WhatWouldXDo: The rest of the Mane Six each ask themselves "What Would Rarity Do?" when doing their specific orders.
* WholeEpisodeFlashback: Most of the episode is showing the events of the opening or talking to the reporter.
