Guys! GuysguysguysguysGUYS!

[The camera swings up to what is clearly the orchard just outside of Ponyville, just in time to catch a treeful of teal blossoms turning into tiny gray apples.]

LOOK at THIS! Do you guys know what this MEANS?

It's ZAPAPPLE SEASON!!! I'm TOTALLY gonna make zapapple jam all by myself, JUST so you can all see how good it tastes! I think I know most of the rules and signs and stuff - Rarity, do you know any of them? Or Princesses? Oh, and if anyone else wants to help me make jam, just show up after the giant storm with a bunny suit and anything pink polka-dotted!

[He was right. He regrets this.]

The apples have some measure of sentience, miss?

[Certainly not intelligence. Polka-dots are hideous, whatever the color.]

[sailorlaughter]

They're MAGIC apples! Granny Smith, my friend Applejack's Granny, she was the one who discovered them! She knows all the ways to make them make good jam! There's that, and the bunny hop, and I think maybe you have to sing the bees a song before you get the honey!

[juniorganymedian]

I see, miss.

[A week ago, he would have suspected she was merely insane. Now, at least he's aware that this might also be some legitimate form of magic.]

I wish you the best of luck with your endeavors, in that case. Will you be selling the jam once it is made?

[sailorlaughter]

Oh! Yeah! I guess I can do that!

[She was just planning on giving it away. It'll be a smallish harvest anyway unless she gets a lot of help, and money doesn't really seem to matter as much when she can get a bunch of it by just riding Lord Tubbington over Nightmares.]

[juniorganymedian]

I would be happy to purchase a small container. Does the jam itself hold any magical properties?

[Because if it granted some sort of electrical power, Jeeves would be feeding it to Descartes to enhance the bat's abilities.]

[sailorlaughter]

No? Maybe if you ate a whole LOT, but I'm pretty sure not!

[juniorganymedian]

Very good, miss. I look forward to the harvest. Good day.

[He nods his head politely before ending the transmission.]
