When the King and Queen of Ponyland come in search of their daughter, the ponies begin to believe that their adopted friend, Patch, may be the Princess they are looking for. As Patch realizes she isn’t the one they are
looking for, the friends become aware that the Princess is indeed among the group. / When Ms. Hackney is too sick to teach, she leaves Starlight in charge of running her prerecorded lesson. However the class is unable to take her seriously and Starlight comes up with the idea of taking the class on a field trip. Unexpected circumstances then arise, making the lesson more real
than the ponies were expecting.
