Fluttershy sets up an "Adopt-a-Thon" on the beach to get people to take a bunch of crabs home as pets, with Rainbow Dash and Rarity helping out. Pinkie Pie tries to help Rarity put outfits and jewelry on the crabs, but they scare her off with their pincers. She volunteers to get snow cones for everyone, but runs into one problem after another along the way: giving up one cone to a kid who drops his, having another stolen by a seagull, and crossing the hot sand without burning her feet. By the time she makes it back, the crabs are overheating in the sun and she gives up a snow cone to cool them down, the last one now full of sand and inedible. Pinkie feels bad that she couldn't bring back snow cones for everyone, but Rainbow uses her Super-Speed to get a fresh batch.
Tropes:
- Agony of the Feet: One of Pinkie's obstacles is to cross the scorching hot sand while barefoot. Her solution? Bounce across beach balls and umbrellas to make it back to her friends.
- Iris Out: The short closes on a crab grabbing the last of Pinkie's snow cones, dropped into the sand.
- Obligatory Joke: Rainbow Dash warns her against saying it, but still, Rarity can't resist.Rarity: I hate to say it, but these crabs are awfully...
Rainbow Dash: Don't...
Rarity: ... CRABBY!
