My Little Pony: Escape From Catrina

My Little Pony: Escape From Catrina is a My Little Pony 'n Friends special that aired after Rescue at Midnight Castle and before My Little Pony: The Movie. It was later edited into a set of episodes for the series.

Synopsis

Part One

At Dream Castle, some of the ponies prepare for a return visit from Megan while Spike and some others are playing a ball game. Unfortunately, Earth Pony Sundance ends up wrecking some of the decorations, and Baby Pony Baby Moondancer loses the ball down the entrance to a cave. Unbeknownst to the ponies, the cave is the lair of the cat-like witch Catrina, who forces the Bushwoolies to produce witchweed potion to increase her powers. Fed up with her tyranny, the Bushwoolies express their intent to escape, despite Catrina's threats and the pleas of her kind-hearted henchman Rep.

Megan arrives at Dream Castle and meets the Baby Ponies, whom she manages to trick into taking a nap. At the same time, the Bushwoolies take advantage of Catrina's napping to shut down her witchweed machine and escape. Rep breaks the bad news to Catrina, and the two head outside in search of the Bushwoolies. However, upon spotting some of the ponies playing nearby, Catrina decides to make them her new slaves, and conjures a blizzard to trap them.

Part Two

Alerted to the peril of her friends, Megan arrives with the Rainbow of Light, which breaks up Catrina's blizzard and evades her attempts to stop it. Realizing that the rainbow is an obstacle that must be dealt with, Catrina hatches a plan for Rep to steal it. Back at Dream Castle, the ponies prepare for a costume party, and Megan comforts Sundance after one of the other ponies gets angry over her previous klutziness. She then helps Baby Moondancer with a princess costume, giving her the Rainbow of Light's locket to wear.

Disguised as a pony, Rep attempts to trick Baby Moondancer out of the locket, but when he fails Catrina captures her and the two return to their lair. Searching for her, Megan and the ponies discover the Bushwoolies, who lead them to Catrina's lair. Catrina attempts to force them to serve her by threatening Baby Moondancer, but Rep-who has long lamented Catrina's wicked ways-refuses to allow her to do so. Knocked into a large drain in her lair, Catrina pleads for help, and receives it after using the last of the witchweed potion to destroy her machine. She and Rep then join the ponies at their costume party.

Lyrics:

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

How has the world been treating you?

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

Have your dreams been coming true?

Tell me what's doing, anything grooving

Is something special in-store?

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

Can't wait to see you once more!

*dialogue break*

What's been occurring? Anything stirring?

Hope your problems are few.

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

May fortune smile on you.

May fortune smile on you!

Let's Not Take A Nap

Megan sings and plays with the baby ponies to persuade them that they don't have to take a nap, only instead of keeping them hyper, it tires them out and Megan puts them to sleep.

Lyrics:

[Megan] Let's not take a nap!

Who wants to take a nap?

Let's let go, let's cut loose

Be a locomotive and caboose!

Woo-woo-woo!

[Megan and baby ponies] Let's not nap today!

Let's stay awake and play!

[Megan] Let's not sleep, let's keep busy

Play a game of leap frog 'til we're dizzy!

Boing-boing!

[Megan and Baby Ponies] Boing-boing-boing-boing!

[Baby Moondancer] Let's do somersaults!

[Baby Surprise] Let's do cart-wheels!

[Megan] Let's stay up until dawn!

[Baby Moondancer] Let's have a pillow fight!

[Baby Cotton Candy]: Let's have a tug-of-war!

[Megan] Goodness me, did someone yawn?

Time we took our naps, before we all collapse.

[Baby Moondancer] No it's not!

[Baby Surprise] We're not ready!

[Baby Glory] Glory wants her bottle.

[Baby Cotton Candy] Where's my teddy?

[Megan] To your beds, douse the light.

And put your sleepy-heads down, and sleep tight.

Dressed Like a Dream

The ponies perform in their costumes.

Lyrics:

[Seaponies] Shoo-be-do, shoo-shoo-be-do!

Shoo-be-do, shoo-shoo-be-do!

Dressed like a dream, they're all dressed like a dream

Take a look and you'll agree, they stepped right out of a fantasy!

Dressed like a dream, the stars are shining, big!

Sporting clothes so heavenly, they're lighting up the whole galaxy!

Isn't it fun getting all done up?

Pretending you're someone new?

Life is supreme when you're dressed like a dream come true!

[Megan] Isn't if fun getting all done up?

Pretending you're someone new?

[Seaponies] Life is extremely supreme

[Seaponies and Megan] When you're dressed like a dream

Come true!

[Seaponies] Shoo-be-do, shoo-shoo-be-do!

Closing theme

Lyrics:

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

Time of us heading homeward bound!

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

Twinkling stars are all around!

Daytime has ended, night has descended,

Smiling above is a moon

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

Let's get together real soon!
