Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash decide to visite another lesser-known part of Equestria... ...where they find that all the color has been drained from the land! Can the Mane Six find out who's behind this, and bring color back to the land?
...and it turns out there was no big villain behind it. It was just a crisis that needed to be averted. Which is OK by me. It works for the story. Overall, a great special!
