Pony Camp!

So, today is a big day for the stables.
It's pony camp! Super exciting.
But it's hard to think about the fun times when a pony has been stolen.
And you kind of got someone wrongly arrested for being a horse thief.
And if I could just go to the stables, I could sort it out but I'm banned.
- We're going.
- Okay.
Wanna see Gramps have his plaster taken off? You know, as fun as that sounds Didn't think so.
- We'll be back around 4:00.
- Okay.
- Look after Rosie.
- Don't I always? What if she's not going to the hospital? - What if she went to meet with Mia's dad? - With Gramps? - Rosie, you really need to let this go.
- But consider the evidence.
In Mom's diary, it said she was in love with somebody who was called "E.
" "Elliot" starts with E.
That's your evidence, the alphabet? I'm still building my case, thank you very much.
- Why are you wearing stinky horse clothes? - I wanted to go to pony camp, and I was wondering if If you and I could go and get squished by some crazy horses? Great sister skills.
I just really need to talk to Pin, okay? I I made a mistake.
He was stealing and you caught him.
Where's the mistake exactly? You know what? - You wouldn't understand.
- Try me.
Raven told me I was wrong.
Raven? As in, the horse? Now he's a talking horse? Are you serious? You know what? I need to go to camp.
Why don't you come? Wait.
How are you gonna pay for it? - My savings.
- What if Mom finds out? - She's on the mainland.
- What if I catch horse measles? Well, then I'll take you straight to the Center for Made-Up Diseases.
- What if I break my leg? - Ugh! It could happen.
Have I done it right? Guys? Um, sorry, Ben, we were too busy assessing the way Marcus' horse approaches the jump.
He is so hot.
Yes, Becky.
Marcus' horse is, uh, somewhat sweaty.
I'm not talking about the horse.
I'm talking about Marcus.
Girls are gross, right, Bob? He's amazing.
Remember, it's all about confidence, in yourself and in your horse.
Marcus.
The guy who thinks everyone's in love with him.
Maybe he has a point about that.
This place has so much poop, they might as well rename it The Poop Palace.
Give it a chance.
You might enjoy yourself.
Welcome to the neigh borhood.
Get it? "Neigh"? Think you're gonna be okay with these guys for a few minutes? Sure.
I'll just try to stand very still and not touch anything.
Or anyone.
I'm glad you like puns.
I've got loads.
Get ready for the mane event, where you'll see the reining champion.
Uh, Zoe, I changed my mind! Dad, don't.
- I'm just gonna have a word.
- Leave her.
It's over.
Just stay away from that girl.
Don't worry.
I will.
Hey.
Firefly was an easy target.
A beautiful horse in a broken stable.
Are you okay? I'm never gonna see him again.
- It's all your fault.
- What? No If it wasn't for you, Firefly would be here.
- But I didn't - You said that Pin was the horse thief.
Because of you, no one was watching the stables.
Firefly was alone, and they took him.
Guys, can we keep a lid on all the stolen horse talk? I need the kids to be leaving here raving about us.
- If they find out we lost a horse - It might ruin their day? Yeah, I get it.
Oh.
Why is Pin back? - He's working.
- He's a thief.
She's a liar.
No wonder you're worried about the reputation of your stables.
This is all my fault.
I shouldn't have called Pin a horse thief.
- I didn't have all the facts.
- You just did what you thought was right.
- Try telling that to Mia.
- I can handle Mia.
Okay? Okay, guys, let's get this camp started.
Everyone meet in the paddock.
- I hope you're pleased with yourself.
- No, I'm not, at all.
What What is your problem with me? I know I hurt Pin, but But it's more than that, isn't it? Hey.
So, I've got a list of people who hate me right now, and I'm just making sure you're not on it.
Hey.
Can everyone gather round, please? Uh, excuse me.
A little bit of personal space? Welcome to Bright Field Stables' first ever pony camp.
- Bright Fields forever! - Go, Sam! Thank you, officer.
- Okay - What did I tell you? Totally in love with her.
She has no idea.
And as riding is very hungry work, you'll be very pleased to hear that our barbecue is up and running.
Ooh! - We're also gonna work - Mia's over there.
I'm gonna go say hi.
Ah.
You're not gonna annoy her with questions about her dad, are you? No.
So, impress me.
Okay, campers under 12, come with me and grab a shovel, - because we have some mucking out to do.
- No way.
Come on, or there won't be any poo left.
I'm gonna stink until I'm 16.
- Try to have fun.
- Zoe! - Hey.
You made it.
- Hey.
Yeah.
Here I am.
You gonna start secretly filming me again? Okay, Marcus, I wasn't filming you.
It was It's all right.
Becky and Jade told me.
We We thought that you weren't coming.
Becky and Jade said My mom ended up signing the permission slip anyway.
She used pink pen, and her handwriting was shaky, - 'cause she just finished her coffee.
- Why are you still talking? - We're glad you're here.
- Right.
Have fun on the hack.
- See you later.
- Wait.
You're not going? It wouldn't be right.
Not without Firefly.
You still have Fletcher, haven't you? - I'll help you tack him up.
- That's so kind.
Thank you.
- You'll ride him one day.
- Hmm? Raven.
I know you will.
I'm just afraid Mia's gonna get rid of him.
Come on, Becky, tell her your theory.
If you impress Sam again today, she might let you ride Raven.
Then you can work out his interpersonal problems, - and we can all live happily ever after.
- Got it all figured out, haven't you? Well, believe it or not, she's actually the brains in this outfit.
Hey, Pin! Hey If you would just talk to me for one second.
I just Look, don't get me wrong, I feel terrible about Firefly.
Then get CCTV, security fences, a gate that actually locks.
- I just don't have the money.
- Find it.
- Where? - Zoe.
Saddle up.
- We're off, okay? - Okay, I'll be there.
Please, Elliot.
You know that we're struggling.
You don't seem to realize, that horse cost me a lot of money.
What if I took my cash out? How long do you think you'd stay open? - Well, I'll do everything I can.
- Yes, you will.
Hmm.
Guess I'm not the only one having a rough day.
I'm watching you, E.
Ew.
Ah, the muck heap.
Beautiful, isn't it? I've never seen so much poop in my entire life.
It's not even that big at the moment.
After pony camp, it's gonna be twice the size it is now.
Wow, I can't wait to see that.
Ah, me, neither.
I don't get why people like these horrible hairy poo bags so much.
Well, they're powerful, beautiful, and the way they move, there's this kind of freedom They may be powerful and beautiful, but they still stink.
Hmm.
Jealous, much? Raven, if I could take you out, I would.
- Uh, where are you going? - On my first hack.
Won't be gone long.
Are you sure you'll be all right on your own, Rosie? I'll survive.
Probably.
I know you're not used to horses.
You will be super careful, won't you? - Do you want me to stay with you? - Oh, good idea, Zoe.
You stay here and join the little ones in the paddock.
Probably more your level anyway.
Or you could come with us.
I'm sure Marcus could find you a helmet.
As if.
Think of the hat hair.
Everyone ready? - We're waiting for you.
- Where's Marcus? He's with the little kids.
Sam's asked me to take the hack.
Come on.
And here I was thinking that stealing and getting arrested were his only talents.
Go.
Make up with, uh, Mr.
Cheekbones over there.
- Are you sure? - I'll be fine.
Thank you.
Uh, don't forget to tell him about your ability to talk to horses.
Hey.
I just wanted to say sorry about the whole, you know, getting you arrested thing.
Look, I really am sorry.
It was an idiot move.
I should have known better.
And, also, I guess I just think I I saw you take something from that cabinet, and Is everything okay? Are you in trouble? Pin, whatever it is, let me help you.
What am I supposed to think if you won't talk to me? - Becky, you're in charge.
- What? - What? - What? Woo-hoo! Wait, what? Wait.
Major, honey, I know we have never cantered before, but now might be a good time to try it.
Let's go.
Pin, get back here! Wow, this is amazing.
Pin, where did you go? Can't take a hint, can you? - What's in there? - Take a look.
Look, I'm not gonna play this game with you again, okay? So, just tell me.
What were the sedatives for? To keep Firefly quiet so I could steal him.
- It's what you think, isn't it? - What am I supposed to think when you're all mysterious and you don't tell me anything? Tell me you didn't.
Firefly? He's a moor pony.
- He's lame.
- Why not take him to the vet? He's the council's responsibility.
But they've no money to treat the wild horses, so they'd put him down.
You were taking the medicine for him.
Pin, I am so sorry Do you know what thieves do to horses? They drug them.
Cart them around the country in the back of vans.
Sell them to people that don't even like horses, that just wanna own something shiny and expensive and wild.
You thought I could be a part of something like that? - I'm sorry, I got it wrong.
I - Yeah, you did.
Until you look beyond what's in front of you, - you'll keep getting it wrong.
- I'm sorry.
You should go now.
Dad doesn't want me talking to you, and now I know why.
Just go.
You all right? She won't be bothering us again.
Beyond those hills is the old barn.
Which, by the way, is totally haunted.
That barn is about as haunted as my saddle pad.
Hundreds of years ago, a greedy lord heard of the great treasure hidden in the hills.
And which lord? And how many hundreds of years ago? I mean, this story needs facts.
Jade, you're interrupting my story.
He rode out in search of the treasure, and then a huge storm came in.
But the lord pushed on, desperate to find the loot.
And then he froze to death.
Now the ghost pony wanders the moors.
And until she's reunited with her master, she'll claim our souls, one by one.
Grow up, Becky.
So come on.
Why is Zoe chasing Pin? Something else she wants to wrongly accuse him of? I'll let you in on a secret.
Please do.
Zoe is absolutely petrified of the Ghost Pony.
She got spooked.
Had to take a moment.
Fine, don't tell me.
I'll find out by myself, don't you worry.
Come on, Susie, this is boring.
Susie? Sorry.
I didn't catch that.
It's such a beautiful day, and you've hardly taken your eyes off your phone.
Come on, give it over.
I'm not giving you my phone.
Susie, remember our no boys pact? If one of us is single, then Then we both are.
It's not like anyone texts you anyway.
I'm kidding.
Come on, everyone.
Let's bail.
"Bail.
" Like "hay bale.
" Wait! The hack.
It's not over yet.
- I guess we should head back, too.
- No, Jade.
I was given a job, and I'm going to get that job done.
Come on, Bob.
Let's show the world what a natural navigator you are.
Becky, it's this way.
I knew that.
See, it's all about concealing the flaws.
With a sparkly scrunchy, we're taking attention away from his snaggletooth.
- Wow.
- Have you thought about using conditioner? - And not just for the horse.
- Thanks.
No problem.
Can you brush his tail? Ah.
Fine work, indeed.
I know, right? It's amazing what a little LA style can do to a matted, neglected mane.
You know, I really thought you'd be long gone by now.
Well, someone told me that horses are beautiful, and maybe they were right.
Okay, you need to comb the tail, not tickle it.
Here.
Pony makeovers.
Nice work.
- Thanks.
- Think you can do something with Fletcher? This old thing needs all the help he can get.
No offense.
Sure.
We have a waiting list, but we also have a priority booking system for our VIPs.
So, your dad E.
I mean Elliot.
- Does he know my mom at all? - I don't think so, but Look, let's talk Zoe.
Everyone says she's this amazing rider.
I know.
It's so annoying.
Anyway, your dad is he, you know, seeing anyone? Seeing anyone? Of course not.
But, um, Zoe, she's had lots of riding lessons back home, right? No, not one.
So, your dad, does he ever go out at odd times of the night, or day, wearing cologne? She really is a natural rider.
Good for her.
Yeah.
She found something she's really good at and she really loves, and she's not even allowed to - Not even allowed to what? - Nothing.
Rosie I thought we had a special bond.
I thought we were close, like sisters.
Okay, fine.
Zoe's not allowed to be riding.
Like, at all.
If my mom knew we were here, she would totally flip.
Zoe's not allowed to ride? That's so sad.
Hey, Zoe! Wait up! Where have you been? - Becky got us lost.
- I did not get us lost.
I just decided, in my role as hack leader, to take a little detour, that's all.
- How did it go with Pin? - What'd you find out? That I'm an idiot.
He's been taking the sedatives to treat an injured moor pony.
He was still stealing.
You were right about that.
Yeah, but instead of watching him, I should've been watching the real thieves.
You thought you were doing the right thing.
Tell that to Firefly.
Don't let this ruin your day.
Let's head back to pony camp.
We'll be just in time for the barbecue.
You're right, you're right.
- I am so hungry that I could eat a horse.
- Zoe! Oh.
Sorry.
I didn't think, Major.
I'm sorry.
Hey, wait for us.
Whee! They're back.
Is that Zoe? - This doesn't look good.
- Get off that horse right now! Mom.
- Mrs.
Phillips, is there a problem? - Maggie.
- Yes, there is.
And Zoe knows what it is.
- You don't have to be scared.
I'm good.
I've been having lessons.
I galloped.
I asked you not to come here.
I explained, I You promised.
I said Well, I implied that it was all right.
I'm her mother.
I decide what's best.
- Rosie's clearly been so frightened - Rosie's doing really well.
She's right, Mom.
Rosie's been doing great.
She's actually enjoying herself.
- Why did someone call me to come get her? - What? I rang her before you told me, I swear.
I would never drop Zoe in it.
It's just Well, you looked so upset.
It's okay.
You didn't know.
- You're never coming back here.
- No.
- I think you're overreacting.
- He's right.
One foot in this place, I'm shipping you back to the States.
You understand? Zoe? Yes, I understand.
Rosie, get over here.
We're leaving.
- You sure you're all right? - I'm fine.
So, when you got home, on a scale of one to hangry T.
rex, how mad did your Mom get? I think she might talk to me again when I'm 18.
- I can't believe Mia called her.
- It was a revenge call.
She blames me for Firefly.
She's the one that put Firefly in a stable with a broken door.
Yeah.
Raven totally kicked the door off.
I mean, Firefly was right there in a broken stable.
The thieves didn't really need to try.
What if they didn't take Firefly because the door was broken? What if they took him - because they thought he was Raven? - What? Sometimes you need to look beyond what's in front of you.
Firefly wasn't just in a broken stable.
He was in Raven's stable.
The thieves took the wrong horse.
And when they realize their mistake they'll come back for him.
