Hawkeye: Alright, what do we have to do?
Pete: Carry a huge freight train from here to Ogden Utah.
Hawkeye: What engines are we using?
Pete: Only one. For a freight train like this, anda get to use one of our largest locomotives.
Gordon: Oh boy.
Hawkeye: Are anda saying we get to drive a bigboy?!
Pete: Eeyup.
Hawkeye: Alright!! This is awesome!
Gordon: Don't get too excited.

Hawkeye: Yeah, how'd anda know?
Red Rose: I got a message from the boss. Your train is over there being checked.
Hawkeye: Thank you. *walks to train*
Red Rose: *spots Gordon* You're not working with Hawkeye, are you?
Gordon: Unfortunately I am.
Red Rose: Welp, he's gonna die a very unfortunate death.
Gordon: Don't give me that! You're just a yard operator!
Red Rose: That tells anda what to do!
Gordon: Ugh *walks away*
Percy: Hi Hawkeye
Hawkeye: Hey, I thought you, and Jeff were supposed to fix tracks.
Jeff: Not today, we were told to work here for now.
Gordon: What are anda doing servicing our engine?! Don't anda know that anda have to maintain track? anda could be fired for doing different work without permission from the boss.
Percy: We were diberikan permission from the boss.
Hawkeye: *blows whistle*
Jeff & Percy: AH!!
Hawkeye: Something tells me I won $4.
Percy: Aw fine! *gives Hawkeye $2*
Jeff: *gives hawkeye $2*
Hawkeye: Thanks anda two.
Percy: selanjutnya time, we'll be prepared.
Gordon: Is everything ready?
Jeff: Yeah, it's fine. Just remember that the breaks may break when you're travelling at puncak, atas speed which is 75 miles an hour.
Hawkeye: They don't call them brakes for nothing.
Percy & Jeff: *laugh*
Gordon: Let's just go, pindah it!
Percy & Jeff: *get out of way*
Red Rose: *turns signal green*
Hawkeye: *goes for lever*
Gordon: What are anda doing?! I'm driving this train!
Hawkeye: Don't argue, I'm the one sitting closest, I'm the engineer *pulls lever*
The two stallions left the yard, and soon went on their way to Ogden.
Gordon: Ok, no cursing. This is my train, no cursing.
Hawkeye: Piss.
Gordon: Hey, what the hell did I just say?
Hawkeye: N----r.
Gordon: Oh wow, are anda deaf?
Hawkeye: Damnit.
Gordon: Still going. Really?
Hawkeye: Hell.
Gordon: Do anda want me to jump out of this train?
Hawkeye: It'd be pretty nice.
Gordon: Well I'm not the one breaking rules here. So go shovel the coal, pronto.
Hawkeye: We'll be fine. When we get up to Sherman hill, then we'll need lebih coal. Get ready.
Gordon: This is going to be a long journey.
Hawkeye: Eeyup
The train went up Sherman Hill, and Gordon was shoveling coal
Gordon: Hey, if anda let me drive this train, I will be the happiest pony ever.
Hawkeye: *flicks Gordon*
Gordon: dadlhbndfgonlkesjgkodsfgbvdfljkgzx! YOU. Leave this train right now! If you're going to torturize me, then get off this train
Hawkeye: *flicks Gordon*
Gordon: Yoyoyoyo! Now, you're making me mad! Get the hell off this train.
Hawkeye: Nah, I kinda like it in here. We're not even halfway up, why have anda stopped shoveling?
Gordon: Because that's what anda should be doing.
Hawkeye: Says the one with the shovel.
Gordon: Fine! *shovels lebih coal*
At 15 miles an hour, they made it to the puncak, atas of the hill.
Hawkeye: Alright, time to tanda keberangkatan, keberangkatan down the line. *pushes lever*
Gordon: How fast do anda intend to go?
Hawkeye: 60.
Gordon: What?!
Hawkeye: 60
Gordon: I heard you, but that made me give the intention to ask again. What?!
Hawkeye: Well how fast do anda want to go, 20?
Gordon: Shouldn't we be going 80?
Hawkeye: If we hit 75, and we try to stop, the brakes will break. Don't anda remember?
Gordon: No, that's why I asked.
Hawkeye: Of course anda don't remember. *looks at signal* Now we have to stay in this speed otherwise we crash into another train.
Gordon: No we won't! pindah *pulls Hawkeye from controls*
Hawkeye: anda are an idiot if anda think anda can do this!
Gordon: No I'm- Are anda recording this?!?
Hawkeye: *holding camera* Yeah, because if we crash Pete will know which one of us to fire.
Gordon: anda better give me that footage!
Hawkeye: *puts film in case* anda want it? *holds it out window*
Gordon: NO! Don't put it there!
Hawkeye: Alright, anda don't want it. Aaand it's gone!
Gordon: NO! *jumps out*
Hawkeye: Hahaha! *brings case back in engine* I didn't even let go.
Hawkeye then started to slow the train down. As he predicted, another train was in front of him, but the engine pulling it broke down.
Hawkeye: *puts train in siding*
Workers: *moves train out of way*
Hawkeye: How long do I have to wait here?
Worker: About 2 minutes.

Percy: Sorry *takes off*
Gordon: Aha! I found the case. *opens case* WHAT?! There's no film in here!! AAAGGGHHHHHHH!!!!
Percy: *backs up* Are anda alright? I know it's none of my business, but anda seem upset right now.
Gordon: Yes, and I need your help with something. I accidentally fell out of Hawkeye's train. He's waiting for me at a siding. Take me to him.
Percy: Sure thing. Hop on
Gordon: *hops on cart*
Meanwhile with Hawkeye
engineers: It's all clear Hawkeye, anda can go.
Hawkeye: Thank you. *pulls lever*
Percy: *driving cart*
Gordon: Shit! He's taking off without me.
Percy: Are anda sure you're with him?
Gordon: Yes, I'm sure. *pushes Percy off cart*
engineers: Whoa! What's with that pony?
Percy: He has some vengeance to make.
engineers: Uh, ok.
Hawkeye: *going 30*
Gordon: *Following at 40*
Hawkeye: *gets onto mainline*
Gordon: Ugh! This train is in my way, and it's five miles long!! *puts on brakes*
But Gordon was getting closer to Hawkeye's train, and soon crashed into it.
In front of Hawkeye, a signal turned red.
Hawkeye: *stops train* What is it now?
Percy: *stops selanjutnya to Hawkeye in truck* Hawkeye, come quick!
Hawkeye: *climbs out of cab* What happened?
Percy: Gordon pushed me out of a cart, and ran into your train.
Hawkeye: Oh damnit. *gets in truck*

Hawkeye: Wait, I forgot something. *jumps out of truck*
Percy: *stops* I'll bet another pony is falling out of another vehicle somewhere.
Hawkeye: *goes back in cab*

Percy: You'll have to follow me first. *drives back to engine*
Doctors: *follow in ambulance*
Percy: What is it with Gordon, and briefcases?
Hawkeye: He decided to be a working stallion for once.
Percy: What is that supposed to mean?
Hawkeye: He enjoyed being with me for once, and started loving his job. He was loving it so much that he wanted to get a briefcase. I have a bunch of things in here to keep me awake for my long job, and I'll need it in the future.
Percy: I'll bet anda do.
Back to the ambulance,
Gordon: *jumps out*
Pete: What are anda doing?!?
Gordon: Sir?! What are anda doing here?
Pete: Checking to see if you're not on dope! I drove here, and when I heard you, and Hawkeye had some issues, I came here.

Pete: l:(
Gordon: I don't wanna be fired. I don't wanna be fired. I don't wanna be fired.
Pete: That's enough. You're fired, and anda will deal with it.

"Ever since anda started this band, you've been letting... little things get to you. I didn't say anything because I didn't feel like it was my place. Not when I'm so new to this friendship thing. I still have a lot to learn. But I do know that if anda don't work out even the smallest problems right at the start, the magic of friendship can be turned into something else."
"A demon. I turned into a raging she-demon."
"I don't know. I mean, these girls, they were... There was something off about them."
" I don't think anyone is supposed to have all the answers. But anda can count on your friends... to help anda find them."
"I have an idea how we can get in touch with Princess Twilight!"
"None taken. Heh, I'm used to it."
"A demon. I turned into a raging she-demon."

"I have an idea how we can get in touch with Princess Twilight!"
"None taken. Heh, I'm used to it."
so as we all know, because FiM ended its run last October, Hasbro decided to pull the plug on Equestria Girls too.... without even bothering to giving it a proper close. 'cause Holidays Unwrapped sure as hell ain't no finale (not even close).
but the pertanyaan is: did EqG really deserve to be cancelled like that? my answer: no. say what anda want about how Hasbro treated this spin-off franchise during its lifetime, but to me personally, i think EqG had a shot at having a real conclusion (and to an extent, even a great one). there still were a lotta tidak terjawab pertanyaan and stories to be told here. EqG might've just been a spin-off, but i say it still had potential. i mean, it was definitely better than the shit we got now (lookin' at you, pony Life!).
but at the end of the day, Hasbro is the big boss. if they want something to end, there's nothing that can stop them. so, as much as it sucked to see get cancelled so abruptly, it was the final decision.
