Kelly Sheridan: Starlight Glimmer

Quotes 

• Starlight Glimmer : [to Twilight Sparkle]  Perhaps it would be easier to understand if I gave you a tour of the village.

  [a military drum beat starts as she exits the house] 

  Starlight Glimmer : Heads high, ponies! Marching proud! All together now, every one of you! No pony left behind!

  [the villagers march behind her as she sings] 

  Starlight Glimmer : Life is so grand in our town/We're always filled with cheer/We never have to look around/To know that we're all here!

  Villagers : [singing as some of the villagers march in a circular motion around the Mane 6]  In our town!/In our town/We don't have to wait/To find out that our destiny/Is just to emulate!

  Starlight Glimmer : Let's see those big happy smiles!

  [two images of smiles spin around] 

  Starlight Glimmer : [singing]  Life is a smile in our town/

  [the smiles quickly form into an equal sign cutie mark] 

  Starlight Glimmer : Our cutie marks the same!/

  [Zooms out to show four villagers side by side] 

  Starlight Glimmer : Because we do not separate/Ourselves by more than name.

  Villagers : [as two pegasi fly next to Rainbow Dash]  In our town!/In our town/We dare not compete/Winning only brings the worst/Ego-filled conceit.

  [Rainbow Dash lands on the ground with an exasperated look] 

  Starlight Glimmer : [from behind Rainbow Dash, startling her]  You see, now everypony wins!

  [singing] 

  Starlight Glimmer : Life is a smile in our town/We're all equal here/No-one is superior/And no-one shakes in fear/

  Villagers : In our town, in our town!/We work as a team/You can't have a nightmare/If you never dream.

  Starlight Glimmer : [goes next to Fluttershy, who's the only pony of the Mane 6 amused by this]  Other ponies argue/Do you ever wonder why?

  [moves towards Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle] 

  Starlight Glimmer : /When you think your talent's special/You don't see eye to eye/There's just too many differences/That lead to disarray

  [One of the villagers is dancing out of sync with the others, then quickly corrects herself] 

  Starlight Glimmer : /But when you learn to act as one/It's like a holiday!

  Villagers : In our town/In our town/We don't complicate/

  [Fluttershy is shown bobbing her head to the song until Pinkie Pie glares at her] 

  Villagers : When you learn to simplify/Life is oh so great/Join in our utopia/Come out of the dark/Banded by equality/By our cutie mark!

  [Two pegasi fly above the others, holding a banner with a black equals sign] 

• Twilight Sparkle : [as they're in front of the Cutie Mark Vault, then the conformist villagers surround them]  It's a trap!

  [She teleports up above and tries to fire a magic beam at Starlight Glimmer, but Starlight Glimmer strikes before her, grinning as she pulls off her cutie mark into the Staff of Sameness and then puts it into the vault. Twilight collapses to the ground, then Starlight does the same with the rest of the Mane 6] 

  Starlight Glimmer : Now, I don't blame you for what you tried to do here today, you've spent your whole lives thinking those marks are a good thing.

  Twilight Sparkle : Give them back!

  Starlight Glimmer : Well, now you can spend the rest of your lives here, with us. And we'll teach you just how much better life can be... *without* your cutie marks.

  [camera changes to a birds eye view of them and the villagers, which morphs into a white equal sign with a black background, then the message, "To Be Continued..."] 

• Starlight Glimmer : [as the villagers start to accommodate the Mane 6 and she walks off]  Well, this will certainly provide a boost to our little community. When the rest of Equestria finds out that a *Princess* gave up her cutie mark to join us, they'll finally understand what we're trying to accomplish.

  [grins] 

• Rainbow Dash : [to Applejack as they're about to meet Starlight Glimmer for the first time]  Be ready to fight, we don't know what's going to come through that door.

  Starlight Glimmer : [Opens the door, she's a pink female unicorn with a purple and green mane and tail who approaches them]  Welcome! I'm so pleased to have you here.

  [Rainbow Dash looks exasperated and disappointed]
