 * [whooshing]
 * [papers fluttering]
 * Yona: Huh?
 * [whooshing]
 * Silverstream: Whoa!
 * Rainbow Dash: Did I miss the Teacher of the Month announcement?
 * Applejack: You're just in time. But it's gonna be me.
 * Rainbow Dash: Yeah, right. I got this one nailed.
 * Mordecai: And the winner is goes, to. Benson! From. Park
 * Applejack: [groans] Again?
 * Rainbow Dash: Come on!
 * Fluttershy: Oh, my! I don't know how I keep winning.
 * [camera flashes]
 * Rainbow Dash: Yeah. Me, neither.
 * Muscle Man: I think you guys are ready now.
 * [beat]
 * Mordecai: Here you go, Benson. You've deserve it
 * Fluttershy: [giggles]
 * Twilight Sparkle: Next item of business – I've been looking into a new activity for our friendship classes. Spike?
 * [pages flapping]
 * Twilight Sparkle: Section one-forty-seven, paragraph two states that teamwork is a key part of friendship. And section two-two-nine, paragraph nine says outdoor activity reinforces learning. Add that together, and what do you get?
 * Pinkie Pie: Ooh, ooh! Okay, let me see. One-forty-seven, two-twenty-nine, carry the two... Three hundred and eighty-seven?
 * Twilight Sparkle: Mm-mm. A teamwork field trip. Leading it is a Teacher of the Month-type job, so I thought I'd ask—
 * Applejack: I'm your pony, Twilight! Sweet Apple Acres has taught me a thing or two about workin' together.
 * Rainbow Dash: Yeah, but being a Wonderbolt's the definition of teamwork.
 * Applejack: [chuckles] I'm sure you're not sayin' fancy flyin' makes ya a better choice than me.
 * Rainbow Dash: [chuckles] I wouldn't say "better". Just a little more qualified. No offense.
 * Fluttershy: Maybe you can lead the field trip together.
 * Applejack: [stutters]
 * Rainbow Dash: [stutters]
 * Twilight Sparkle: Of course! Who better to model the importance of working as a team?
 * Pinkie Pie: Um, Rarity? Fluttershy? Me? Spike? This flowerpot?
 * Twilight Sparkle: Both of you are teamwork experts. If the students see the two of you teaching together, they'll learn even more. I know you've been competitive in the past, but I'm sure you'd never let that get in the way of friendship education.
 * Applejack: Of course!
 * Rainbow Dash: Totally!
 * Applejack and Rainbow Dash: [groans, chuckles]


 * [theme song]


 * Ocellus: I've never been on a field trip before.
 * Smolder: Yeah, what's the point of this exactly?
 * Gallus: Getting out of the classroom. Duh.
 * Yona: Yak best at field-tripping! [grunts]
 * Silverstream: That's what we're doing?! So fun! [grunts]
 * Sandbar: [chuckles] Pretty sure the headmare has something else in mind.
 * Twilight Sparkle: All right, class. Today you'll learn how important working together is for building a strong friendship.
 * Applejack: Hey, y'all! Ready to get out there and do some learnin' the Apple family way?
 * Rainbow Dash: This is basically gonna be the best field trip in the history of ever! With me in charge, that is. Whoa!
 * Applejack: [chuckles nervously] With us in charge. Meanin' mostly me.
 * Rainbow Dash: Yeah. Good one.
 * Twilight Sparkle: And what teamwork activity do you two have planned for today?


 * Silverstream: No... way. We get to do both?!
 * Twilight Sparkle: I bet that's exactly what your teachers had in mind. Why don't you start with shed building first?
 * Applejack: Heh. Don't mind if I do! Everycreature, follow the leader!
 * Twilight Sparkle: I'll check in later to see how it's going. Remember to work together!

Mordecai: Pff. Good luck.


 * Applejack: [deep inhale] Now take a good, deep breath. What do you smell?
 * Gallus: [inhale] Uh, yak?
 * Yona: [sniffing] Mm-hmm!
 * Applejack: Nope. Try again.
 * Ocellus: Um, apples?
 * Applejack: And...? Anyone? Anyone? No? The promise of... teamwork! That there's an apple shed. And this here is what we're gonna use to build it. Nothin' brings friends together like a little hard work and honest sweat.
 * Rainbow Dash: [laughing] Sweat? Seriously? That's supposed to be part of friendship?
 * Applejack: Not everypony would know that, Rainbow Dash. Just "Teacher of the Month" kind o' ponies.
 * Rainbow Dash: Whatever. Let's just get this done so we can move on to my activity.


 * [montage music]
 * [hammering]
 * [sawing]
 * Applejack: That's it! Measure twice and cut once! Haste makes waste! Slow and steady!
 * Rainbow Dash: Emphasis on the slow.
 * [whoosh]
 * [thudding]
 * Rainbow Dash: [grunting]
 * Applejack: Rainbow Dash! Ya can't build an apple shed like that!
 * Rainbow Dash: [scoffs] Oh, yeah? I just did!
 * [thud]
 * Sandbar: Whoa! No way!
 * Rest of Young Six: Whoa!
 * Gallus: Impressive... if you can call an apple shed impressive.
 * Applejack: Just 'cause it's fast don't mean it's good!
 * Rainbow Dash: Oh, sorry, can't hear you. Too busy practicing my "Teacher of the Month" pose. [grunting]
 * Applejack: Don't count your pictures before they're snapped, Rainbow Dash.
 * Rainbow Dash: Oh, come on! These students are totally gonna vote for a teacher who gets things done!
 * Applejack: No! They're gonna vote for a teacher who gets things done right!
 * Smolder: Yeah... This isn't awkward at all...


 * [montage music continues]
 * [wood creaking]
 * [hammering]
 * Applejack: Steady... Steady... Take 'er nice and slow...
 * [creaking]
 * Applejack: Little to the left...
 * [creaking]
 * Applejack: Uh, a hair to the right...
 * [creaking]
 * Applejack: Now, a hoof shavin' higher...
 * [creaking]
 * Rainbow Dash: [growls] Just bring it down already!
 * Gallus and Smolder: [yelps]
 * Applejack: [yelps]
 * [crash]
 * Rainbow Dash: [chuckles nervously]
 * Applejack: I'll give ya one guess whose side is still standin'.
 * Yona: Yak side! [grunts]
 * [thud]
 * Yona: [chuckles nervously] Uh...
 * Applejack: [sighs]
 * Ocellus: Um, professors? I'm a little confused about teamwork now.
 * Rainbow Dash: That's because you need a different teacher. Follow me! Last one to the stream is a rotten apple shed!
 * Applejack: [growls]


 * Rainbow Dash: Who's ready to smash the all-time Equestria speed record for river canoeing?!
 * [cricket chirping]
 * Gallus: Is that even a thing?
 * Sandbar: First I've heard of it.
 * Rainbow Dash: We need to get to the finish line before this alarm goes off. That means you gotta move fast! Any questions?
 * Yona: Uh, Yona has questions.
 * Rainbow Dash: No time for 'em! Get in the boat!
 * Applejack: You really think winnin' some canoein' record is gonna get you that Teacher of the Month trophy?
 * Rainbow Dash: I'm pretty sure everycreature's gonna like it a lot better than pounding nails and cutting wood.
 * [splashing]
 * Yona: Yak not like water.
 * Ocellus: Sometimes, when I'm scared to try something new, I whistle.
 * Yona: [weak whistling]
 * Gallus: We got you, Yona.
 * Yona: [yelping]
 * [thud]
 * Applejack: Way I see it, Twilight's gonna give that teachin' trophy to a teacher, not a racer.
 * Rainbow Dash: We'll see about that.


 * Rainbow Dash: Stroke! Stroke! Stroke! Harder! Put your backs into it, newbies!
 * Applejack: Stroooooke... Stroooooke... Stroooooke... Slower... Focus on your paddle technique, y'all.
 * Silverstream: Woo-hoo! We're really going now!
 * Smolder: So... when do we get to the part when we move?
 * [water splashing]
 * Rainbow Dash: When everycreature starts listening to me, the leader of my activity, Applejack! Now stroke!
 * [water splashing]


 * [water rushing]
 * [watch ticking]
 * Rainbow Dash: Dig in, team! We can still beat that record!
 * Applejack: Stop!
 * Rainbow Dash: Go!
 * Ocellus: Which way do we go?
 * Rainbow Dash: Left!
 * Applejack: Right!
 * Silverstream: Aye-aye, captains! Wait, what?
 * Rainbow Dash: Left! I can see the finish line from here!
 * Applejack: If we go left, we'll be headin' straight into the bite-acuda fish!
 * Rainbow Dash: Who cares about a few fish?
 * Sandbar: Uh, professors?
 * Applejack: You'll care plenty when they bite ya!
 * Sandbar: Guys?
 * Rainbow Dash: We'll just go around them!
 * Sandbar: Rock!
 * All: [screaming]
 * [crash!]


 * [water rushing]
 * All: [gasping, coughing]
 * Silverstream: [giggling]
 * Yona: [panicked whistling] Oof! [grunting]
 * [rip!]
 * Silverstream: I love field trips!
 * Applejack: I hope you're happy.
 * Rainbow Dash: [scoffs] Obviously not! Because there goes our new speed record!
 * Yona: [panicked whistling, coughing] Help! Yak not swim!
 * [transformation zap]
 * Ocellus: That's okay! Your friends can change into creatures that do!
 * Yona: [panicked whistling, coughing]
 * Twilight Sparkle: How's the canoeing... going?
 * Smolder: About as good as the apple shed building.
 * Rainbow Dash: I totally had things under control until Applejack messed 'em up!
 * Applejack: I did not!
 * Rainbow Dash: Did too!
 * Applejack: Did not!
 * Gallus: Yup. It's been like this all day.
 * Sandbar: I wouldn't say all day. Just... ninety-nine percent of it.


 * Twilight Sparkle: I can't believe this! You're not teaching teamwork! You're competing with each other! I thought you were past that!
 * Rainbow Dash: We are! Mostly.
 * Applejack: We got carried away with wantin' to be the Teacher of the Month is all.
 * Twilight Sparkle: The Teacher of the Month wouldn't care about being the Teacher of the Month! I know Fluttershy would be thrilled to see another pony win. That's it! I'm taking over this field trip!
 * Applejack: H-Hold up, Twilight. Don't count Rainbow Dash for the award just yet. You shoulda seen her fire up those students to build a shed.
 * Rainbow Dash: No way! You're the one the students listen to. Besides, you saved us from those pony-eating fish.
 * [beat]
 * Rainbow Dash: Uh, long story. But Applejack should definitely be Teacher of the Month.
 * Twilight Sparkle: Hmmm... Maybe you two have learned something, after all.
 * Applejack: Does that mean you'll give us another chance at the Teacher of the— [muffled]
 * Rainbow Dash: Field trip?
 * Twilight Sparkle: Well...
 * Rainbow Dash: Come on, Twilight. We get it. No more arguing. Right, Applejack?
 * Applejack: Right as rain and twice as fresh!
 * [hoof-bump]
 * Twilight Sparkle: Fine. But I'm picking the next activity you two lead. A nature walk. Nopony could possibly argue over that. Right?
 * Applejack and Rainbow Dash: Right!
 * Applejack: See? We're agreein' already.


 * Applejack: Well, look at that. The path splits up ahead. Left or right?
 * Smolder: Ugh. Here we go again.
 * Applejack: Where to, Rainbow Dash?
 * Rainbow Dash: I was thinking right... unless you want to go left. Because what makes you happy makes mehappy.
 * Applejack: Aw, heck. Forget about me. You want to go right, we'll go right.
 * Rainbow Dash: But teamwork means listening to other ponies, so it's up to you.
 * Applejack: Well, aren't you as sweet as sugar apple pie? But it's up to you.
 * Yona: Ugh! Follow me! Yak know best way!
 * Applejack: Hey! Where are y'all goin'?


 * [montage music]


 * Ocellus: I think we've gone in the same circle five times.
 * Sandbar: Only because someponies won't make up their minds about which way to go.
 * Rainbow Dash: Do you want to keep going in a circle, Applejack?
 * Applejack: Up to you, Rainbow Dash. I insist.
 * Rainbow Dash: [chuckles] No, no. I insist.
 * Applejack: Heh. But I insisted first.
 * Silverstream: Are we still on a field trip? 'Cause this just feels like being lost.
 * Smolder: Ugh.
 * [whoosh]
 * Smolder: We can still get back to school before dark if we cross that ravine and stop doubling back.
 * Rainbow Dash: We knew that. All part of our plan. Right, Applejack?
 * Applejack: Uh, yup! All we have to do is, uh... build a bridge 'cross that, uh, giant canyon, and we're home free. That is, if-if you think a bridge is a good idea.
 * Rainbow Dash: Only if you want to build a bridge.
 * Gallus: Stop! Listen. We can just fly everyone over and be done.
 * Applejack: Nope! There's still plenty o' time to teach y'all a lesson in teamwork.
 * Rainbow Dash: Cooperation!
 * Applejack: Togetherness!
 * Rainbow Dash: You are so right!
 * Applejack: Only as right as you are!
 * Smolder: Okay! We'll build a bridge! What do we use?


 * [beat]


 * Applejack: I'm goin' with your idea! Vines! No buts about it!
 * Rainbow Dash: I-I'm building with your idea! Branches! End of story!


 * [montage music]


 * Ocellus: [yawns]
 * [crickets chirping]
 * Applejack: [muffled] Why use a branch when you can use a vine? [grunting] Whoa!
 * Young Six: [gasps]
 * Applejack: [grunting]
 * Young Six: [sighs]
 * [crack]
 * Rainbow Dash: Why didn't I think of branches to begin with? They're so— [yelping] ...easy to work with.
 * Young Six: [gasps]
 * [wind whistling]
 * Applejack: [muffled] Come on now... [grunting] These here vines are just the thing, Rainbow Dash!
 * Rainbow Dash: Not to disagree, but these here branches are the way to— [screams]
 * Applejack: [screams]
 * Applejack and Rainbow Dash: [screaming] Help!
 * Ocellus: Uh, at least now they're agreeing on something.


 * [vines creaking]
 * Rainbow Dash: [grunting] I can't get out!
 * Applejack: Let me try. [grunting]
 * [vines creaking]
 * [teeth snapping]
 * Rainbow Dash: Let me guess. Bite-acudas?
 * [splashing]
 * Applejack: Mm-hmm.
 * [teeth snapping]
 * Applejack: And they look mighty hungry.
 * Sandbar: We gotta get our professors out of there! Anycreature have a plan?
 * Gallus: Leave 'em hangin'?
 * Silverstream: What?!
 * Gallus: I'm kidding! ...Kinda.
 * Ocellus: We need to work fast! And together!
 * [vines snapping]
 * Smolder: But mainly fast.
 * Applejack: I hate to admit it, but—
 * [vines snapping]
 * Applejack: ...this whole mess is kinda our fault.
 * Rainbow Dash: Yeah. No trophy is worth getting eaten over.
 * Applejack: So what do ya say? You want to team up and get ourselves out of this here pickle barrel?
 * Rainbow Dash: I thought you'd never ask.
 * Rainbow Dash and Applejack: [screams]
 * Ocellus: Aah! Don't worry. I'm just the distraction.
 * Rainbow Dash: Ocellus?!
 * Applejack: [sighs] You nearly scared the cutie marks off us!
 * [splashing]
 * Ocellus: [roars, chomp-chomp]
 * [splashing]
 * [vines snapping]
 * Rainbow Dash and Applejack: [screaming]
 * Silverstream: Need a lift? Bus Driver: Need a ride?
 * Yona: Yak smash! [grunting]
 * Sandbar: [grunting]
 * Smolder: [grunting]
 * Yona: [laughing, grunting]
 * Sandbar: Welcome back, professors!
 * Rainbow Dash: Now, that was a rescue!
 * Applejack: And y'all did it together!

(the guys congratulate him as they go by)
 * Gallus: No big. Those fish weren't even a thing.
 * Ocellus: [growls]
 * Gallus: [screams]
 * Ocellus: [chuckles] Oops. Sorry.
 * Silverstream: [giggles] Best... field trip... ever!


 * [door opens]
 * Twilight Sparkle: Huh? How was the field trip? What did you all learn?
 * Rainbow Dash and Applejack: Uhhhh...
 * Yona: Yak learn ponies smart!
 * Silverstream: Yeah! Professors Applejack and Rainbow Dash were such good teachers!
 * Gallus: It was kind of crazy genius. They showed us what not to do so we'd figure out what we should do.
 * Twilight Sparkle: Really...?
 * Sandbar: It took us a while to get it.
 * Smolder: Especially at the ravine. It would've been so much easier to just fly home.
 * Silverstream: But instead, our professors built bridges the wrong way just to show us how important teamwork is.
 * Gallus: Yeah. That was super dangerous. Talk about commitment.
 * Ocellus: We know it's too early to pick the Teacher of the Month. But we'd like you to consider Rainbow Dash and Applejack.
 * Twilight Sparkle: Thank you for telling me. I'm so glad to hear your field trip was a success. I'll make sure to schedule another one right away.
 * Young Six: [cheering]
 * Twilight Sparkle: [to Rainbow Dash and Applejack] You were actually just competing the entire time, weren't you?
 * Applejack: To tell you the truth... yeah.
 * Rainbow Dash: Well, not all the time. I agreed with you for the whole nature walk.
 * Applejack: Only 'cause you were anglin' for that Teacher of the Month award!
 * Twilight Sparkle: [groans]
 * Rigby: Seriously.
 * Rainbow Dash: You were the one doing the "angling"!
 * Applejack: [scoffs] You were more like fandanglin'!
