Are you OK, Angel?

I told you that entering the

You just rest here and I'll have

Oh, dear. I'm all out

I think we need to pay

[grunts]

I was sure that she
would be here today.

Hello? Is anyPony there?

Fluttershy? Oh, am
I glad to see you!

I wish I could say the same,
but the door is stuck so,

I um... can't see you.

Ooh. Somebunny hurt his foot!

Let's bandage that up
so he can get back home.

I'd like to keep him overnight,
but as you can see

my place is just
bursting with animals.

Ah! I don't think
I can take in even

one more critter right now.

[sneeze]

- Oh, dear.
- Oh, dear.

[gasp]

[thud]

You really have your
hooves full here.

This place is like a zoo!

Then again, it's normally
like that but still...

I can't keep up!

Now does my favorite wittle
bunny want a carrot-pop?

[raspberry]

That's OK. I think the goats
ate all of them, anyway.

I just can't believe all these
poor little animals are hurt!

What happened?

Every day, there's more and
more animals on my doorstep.

Most of them just
have minor ailments:

hurt wings, stuffy
noses and such.

But the trouble is, even
after they're all healed up,

I can't seem to get these
comfy critters to leave!

Oh, dear!

They do seem to have made
themselves right at home here.

I wonder why they chose
to flock to my office.

It just doesn't make sense.

Don't be silly, Dr. Fauna.

You're the best Vet
Pony in Equestria!

At least that's what I've
been telling every Pony.

Ah, you did what?

Oh, no! Do you suppose it's
my fault? I'm so sorry;

I didn't mean for
this to happen.

I just know animals feel safe
and happy under your care.

[chirping]

Oh! Normally, I don't mind if a
snake wants to slither in

or a raccoon needs a rest. But
now this place is so full,

I have no space to treat
any injured animals!

That is a big problem.

That I'm going to fix for you!

I already have the
perfect solution

that'll make the critters
happy and give you more space!

Then you'll have all
your ducks in a row.

The sooner you fix
it, the better!

I'm on it.

[sob]

I want to thank you all

for rushing right
over when I called.

[angry chittering]

Dr. Fauna needs my help
with a serious problem.

No. Her vet clinic is a
bit maybe um... overrun

with adorable critters in
dire need of a safe place

to lay their heads and...

they don't have anywhere to go!

Oh, that's just awful.

I know!

Yeah, Dr. Fauna's
always fixin' Winona up

when she ain't feelin' too fine,

so helpin' her out
is A-OK by me.

Ah! Yeah!

[all agreeing]

That's great news because it
means you'll all be helping me

with something special, too.

Something that's been a dream
of mine for a long time.

Oh, goody! Is your dream
to make a bouncy castle

shaped like a
gigantic bundt cake?

Um, no...
not exactly.

Oh, just me then.

So what is it,
Fluttershy? Spill!

My dream is to build a
real animal sanctuary.

A beautiful habitat where every
animal, whether sick...

or scared...

or even just lonely.

Feathered or furry,
scaly or slimy,

every critter would be welcome.

My sanctuary can be the
one place in Equestria

they call home till they feel
ready to take on the world.

[cheering]

Wow, Fluttershy.

I've never heard you speak
with such conviction.

That was exquisite!

Pretty awesome.

Thank you, every Pony.

You've all taught me so much
about building my confidence

over the years. It's
because of your friendship

that I finally feel able to make
my dream project a reality.

But I can't build the sanctuary
alone. Will you join me?

Of course! Yeah!

I'm happy to offer my
extra hooves to ya!

But come to think of it,
I actually know a filly

who'd be more help than I
would. She's a friend of mine

from Winona's sheep herdin'
competition: Wrangler.

She's an expert in
animal enclosures.

How lovely!

Ooo! Ooo! Ooo! I
know somePony, too!

Hard Hat is the best
construction Pony in Ponyville.

He can build anything you
could ever, ever, ever want!

Hearing you all
mention these experts,

I am reminded that I,
too, have the perfect Pony

to help capture the
essence of your vision.

To give it some
style, some flair!

Is it...?

(Laughs)

No, no. Um I was referring to
the premiere interior designer

of the Canterlot
Elite: Dandy Grandeur.

He helped me when I was setting
up my Canterlot boutique.

I know he'd be thrilled
to work with you!

Wow, every Pony!
Thank you.

I can't wait to meet all of
them and hear their ideas.

We're right on track to building

the most wonderful
sanctuary in Equestria.

♪♪

♪♪

Thank you, Rupert!

Ah-Ahem. It's wonderful that
you all could join me

to discuss the Ponyville
sanctuary project.

My friends have so
many nice things to say

about each of your talents!

This is a big project,
so I'm happy to have

such experienced ponies
working on it with me.

Rarity has impeccable taste
in design and friends.

So I can't wait to work
with you, you know?

I... I think so.

Yee-haw!

I'm just lookin' forward
to helpin' ya out, ma'am.

And the animals.

So, uh... Pinkie Pie said
you drew up some blueprints?

Um, Not exactly; it's
more of a "dream-board."

♪♪

♪♪

That sure doesn't look
like an animal hospital.

That's because it's
not. It's a sanctuary.

A place that is safe but not
restrictive, cozy but natural.

A place where the animals can
come and go as they please.

[squeaking]

So... can you build it?

[nervous chuckles]

I want the sanctuary to
have an open floor plan.

No walls, more like an enclosure
that melts into the trees,

That way, the animals
can return to the forest

right when they feel ready.

Sneaky! I like it.

You know, I designed
the Ponyville Hospital.

I could do the exact
same thing right here.

I still have the blueprints.

Though it'll take a while
to clear all these trees.

But I don't want to clear the
trees. I want to use them.

Are you sure?

Like a cohesive structure. Or
any structure I'm familiar with.

Critters don't live
the same way ponies do.

I know this is unconventional,
but that's because

we're trying to do something
that's never been done before.

And I really believe it'll work.

[chirping]

All right, then. I'll
see what I can do.

See, Fluttershy?
Whatever you want!

Good.

♪♪

I know she thinks
knows what's best,

but once she sees how
much better it works

with these plans,
she'll thank us.

Which one do you like for
the window treatments?

Ooooh Ah! Loving the print on those!

Um... not to be rude, but
there must be some mistake.

We have no need for
curtains at the sanctuary.

And why ever not?

Everything is going to look
natural in the animal habitats,

not like it was made for ponies.

All those shades
of brown and green?

But... they're so
drab. You know?

Ha ha ha ha!

Drab? You're calling the colors
of beautiful trees drab?

Exactly! The "natural"
look is not in right now.

This is better, trust me.

I appreciate your input,
but I just know the animals

would be happiest with
dirt brown pillows

and leaf green accents.

I'll look into it.

Thank you.

When a client has a vision!

[giggle]

Sometimes they need me to
steer them away from it.

Especially if its dirt brown.

And right there we got yer
standard sheep travelin' cage.

Fits two critters,
dependin' on size.

Hmmm.

What is it, sugarcube?

I'm looking for something
less like a cage...

more like a nice hug. Maybe
if we lose that part...

Well, then it
wouldn't be a cage.

Exactly! Ooh!

This is the perfect
base for a little nest.

And anything else the
animals can burrow into.

You sure you don't
want something

more secure for the critters?

She does have a point there.

You wouldn't want
a bunny wandering

into a wrong cage, would you?

No! No cages. I want to
give the animals the freedom

to come and go. It's the only
way they'll feel comfortable.

Well, she's the boss!

♪♪

[hammering]

♪♪

♪♪

[gasp]

Hey! What do you
think, Fluttershy?

I told you we'd be fast!

Almost finished with
the building already!

The color just pops, you know?


Quite roomy inside,
really. And very safe!

Don't keep us
waiting, Fluttershy!

Do you love it or
do you love it?

I.. I...

I don't love it. This is
not going to work at all!

A giraffe can't fit
through this door.

With these curtains
blocking the light,

how are the birds going
to sing in the sunshine?

And this is the
opposite of a nice hug!

I know you all worked hard,

but none of you did
anything I asked for.

That's not true! We used the
trees just like you asked.

And that curtain
fabric is organic!

It's got "natural" fibers.

And I added pillows
inside my cages!

That should count as
feelin' like a hug.

I may not know much
about construction,

or interior design,
or wrangling...

but I am an expert at one
thing: the care of animals.

And what animals need is
a sanctuary, not this!

Maybe your vision wasn't all it
was cracked up to be, you know?

My vision isn't
the problem here.

I told you all
exactly what I wanted

and none of you listened to me.

So while I appreciate
your efforts,

I no longer require
your services.

Sleep tight, little one.

It's going to be OK, I promise.

[squeak squeak]

Now, now. Everymouse has
got to wait their turn.

I'm so sorry. I thought I'd
have a beautiful sanctuary

for you all to stay in by now,

but I put my trust
in the wrong ponies.

It's OK, Fluttershy, I
know you did your best.

But we can make this work
here. It'll be a bit... tight, Ah!

We'll have these patients back
on their paws in no time.

Even without a sanctuary.

No!

I won't give up!
These animals need me

and I'm going to solve
this once and for all.

If this little lady can
crawl all the way here

from Western Equestria, I
can find a way to build her

a safe place to rest!

[noisy excitement]

[laughter]

Oh! Oops, everyone
back to sleep now.

Thanks for coming,
every Pony. As you know,

building the sanctuary
didn't go quite as planned.

I know, right? Who'd
have guessed

that Hard Hat wouldn't
build whatever you want?

I never would have
invited Dandy to help

if I thought he'd
act in such a manner.

And Wrangler sure made
a fool outta me, too.

I'm sorry, Fluttershy.

It's OK. You were all
just trying to help.

But I know that letting all the
experts go was the right call.

So what are you going to do now?

Try again.

I'm going to re-build
the sanctuary...

and do it my way this time.

Awesome! That's the You show 'em!
spirit!

How about putting an
awesome flying course

for the birds right there?

And a carrot-cake
stand here!

A library cave?

EveryPony, STOP!

I appreciate you
sharing your thoughts,

but I need every Pony
to respect mine.

Other ponies may be
experts in their fields,

but animals are my
field of expertise.

And if I say this
is what I want...

Then this is what
needs to happen!

For the animals, of course.

Wow, we should call
you Flutterbold now!

[laughter]

To get things back on
track, I called in a favor

from an old friend.
He'll be here any minute.

I thought you said
no more "experts."

This is one expert I know I can
trust to put the animals first.

Plus there's no Pony
better at building.

[knocking at door]

Heh heh. I heard some Pony
needs construction help

for them critters.

Big Daddy McColt!

We met each other back when the
map called me and Fluttershy

to the Smokey Mountains!

And he certainly knows his stuff
when it comes to buildings

and caring for animals.

Well, shucks, let's not stand
around talkin' about it.

Let's build us a sanctuary!

Oh, Fluttershy.
This is amazing!

Now you should have plenty
of room at the clinic

because once you've treated
them, they can recover here!

With my help, of course.

It's OK, Lola. We all
move at our own pace.

Sometimes all we need to do
