One day, Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were at the clubhouse drinking milk.

Sweetie Belle: This milk is really good.

Scootaloo: Yeah. It has to be the best.

Applebloom: Well it's a good thing that I live on a farm. We have plenty of cows to go around.

Sweetie Belle: It must be really nice to be around the cows, isn't it?

Applebloom: Sure is. Anyway, tomorrow, Applejack is going to be selling milk out in town.

Scootaloo: Wow. I wish we could do something like that. Surely we could find our talents by doing that.

Sweetie Belle: I don't know. I don't think I want to spend the rest of my life selling milk. Plus, I doubt that would be the thing I'd be good at.

Scootaloo: It still sounds like fun.

Applebloom: Yeah. Maybe Applejack could take us tomorrow. We could go and ask her.

Scootaloo: Yeah.

Later on, they met with Applejack at the house.

Applejack: Hey, girls. Why are you so happy?

Applebloom: Applejack, you're going to be selling milk in town tomorrow, aren't you?

Applejack: Yeah. Why?

Applebloom: Well, we were wondering...

Scootaloo: Can we help out?

Sweetie Belle: Yeah.

Applejack: Well I don't know. The last time Applebloom helped me try and sell something...

(Then a flashback to "Call of Cutie" is shown with Applebloom trying to get the customers to buy their products)

Applejack: (VO) It didn't go so well.

(Flashback Ends)

Applebloom: I've learned mah lesson since then.

Applejack: Still....

Applebloom: Please?

Applejack: Alright.

The Cutie-Mark Crusaders then cheered and Applejack smiled. The next morning, Applebloom woke up excited. She jumped out of her bed and went to her front door to see her friends waiting.

Applebloom: Hey, girls.

Scootaloo: Hey, Applebloom.

Sweetie Belle: This'll be sweet.

Applebloom: Applejack should be up at any moment. We can wait at the cart.

So they went over to the cart with the milk bottles. They waited a while, but Applejack didn't come. They were confused.

Sweetie Belle: Where is she?

Applebloom: This is unusual. Usually she's here by now. I'll go see what's holding her. Maybe she's just having breakfast.

So Applebloom went off to look for her sister. She went into the kitchen.

Applebloom: Applejack?

But Applejack wasn't in the kitchen, only Big McIntosh and Granny Smith were there. Applebloom then went upstairs to look for Applejack.

Applebloom: Applejack! Applejack!

She went up to Applejack's bedroom door and knocked.

Applejack: Uuuuh...come in....

Applejack didn't sound like herself. Applebloom went in to find Applejack was sick in bed.

Applebloom: What are you doing, Applejack? We're waiting for you.

Applejack: I'm sowwy, Applebloom. I hab a code.

Applebloom: A code?

Applejack: A code. A code. A c-c-co-ld.

Applebloom: A cold?

Applejack nodded.

Applebloom: What about today?

Applejack: What? Oh yeah. I'm afaid I cank take you today.

Applebloom: WHAT?

Applejack: Sorry, Applebloom.

Applebloom: Can't I do it on my own?

Applejack: I don't know, Applebloom.

Applebloom: Please. I know going out in that swamp on my own wasn't smart. But it'll just be in town.

Applejack: Oh. Alright. Just be careful now.

Applebloom: We will.

And Applebloom left Applejack's room and returned to Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.

Sweetie Belle: Well?

Applebloom: Applejack is sick in bed.

Scootaloo: What?

Sweetie Belle: Does this mean we're not going to sell the milk today?

Applebloom: Applejack said we could do it ourselves.

Sweetie Belle: Huh?

Scootaloo: Are you sure?

Applebloom: Yes. Now let's go.

So they took the cart into town to sell the milk.

Applebloom: Alright. All we have to do is wait for customers.

Sweetie Belle: I'm sure they'll turn up soon.

But the ponies in Ponyville just walked by them.

Scootaloo: Why isn't anypony getting milk?

Just then, Kitty came by.

Kitty: Oh. Hello, girls. What are you doing?

Applebloom: Applejack is sick today.

Sweetie Belle: And she told Applebloom we could sell the milk ourselves.

Scootaloo: She was going to take us, but, you know.

Applebloom: Would you like some milk, Kitty?

Sweetie Belle: You are after all a cat in a pony's body.

Kitty: I'm fine, girls. I got plenty at home. But thank you anyway.

And she walked off.

Scootaloo: Not even the cat wanted any.

Applebloom: Oh well.

Just then, Octavia showed up.

Octavia: You fillies are running the stand on your own?

Applebloom: Yeah. Applejack is sick.

Scootaloo: Would you like to buy some milk, Octavia?

Octavia: Oh. No thank you. I'm good.

Sweetie Belle: What about Michael? I'm sure he'd like to have some milk, too.

Octavia: I think he's just fine as well.

And Octavia left. Then, I showed up.

Applebloom: Eli!

Eli: Hey, girls. I see you still haven't gotten your cutie-marks.

Scootaloo: Nope.

Eli: Don't worry. You'll get them soon.

Sweetie Belle: Would you like to buy some milk, Eli?

Eli: No thank you. I don't drink cow's milk. I get rice milk?

Applebloom: You can milk rice?

Eli: Hahahahaha! That's fu-u-unny. (Still laughs) No. Rice milk is just made from rice instead of from a cow. Anyway, I'll see you later.

And so I walked off, still laughing at "Milk Rice."

Scootaloo: Why does nopony want our milk?

Twilight then walked by.

Applebloom: Twilight.

Twilight: Huh? Oh, hey girls. What are you doing?

Scootaloo: We're trying to sell milk for the Apple Family.

Sweetie Belle: But nopony wants any.

Twilight: Maybe it's because everypony already has plenty of milk.

The crusaders looked at one another.

All 3: Plenty of milk?

Twilight: Yeah. I'm sure once somepony runs out of milk, they'll be coming to buy more. Anyway, I'll be on my way. And before you ask, no thank you.

And Twilight left. Then, Applebloom got an idea.

Applebloom: Hey, I just got an idea.

Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo: What's that, Applebloom?

Applebloom: How about we go to everypony's house and drink their milk?

Sweetie Belle: Wouldn't that be stealing?

Applebloom: No. We'll knock on the door and say "Hey, do you have any milk?" And then they'll let us in and serve us some.

Scootaloo: Sounds like a plan. But if we're doing that, then who'll run the stand.

Applebloom: I'll run the stand, you two go and have some milk.

Sweetie Belle: OK.

So Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo walked off to Rarity's house and knocked on the door.

Rarity: Hello, Sweetie Belle. What brings you and Scootaloo here?

Sweetie Belle: We just thought it would be nice to have some tea with you.

Scootaloo: But not actual tea, you know.

Rarity: Of course. Come on in.

So Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo walked in and they went to the kitchen.

Rarity: OK. So what can I get you?

Sweetie Belle: Some cookies and.....milk...would be nice.

Rarity: Alrighty.

So Rarity got them the milk and cookies and they started to eat. When they were finished...

Sweetie Belle: That was delicious.

Scootaloo: Sure was. Well, it was nice meeting with you, but Sweetie Belle and I better be on our way.

Sweetie Belle: See you later, Rarity.

Rarity: See you, Sweetie Belle.

And Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo left. They went to almost everypony's house that they knew off and had some milk and cookies, but then, they got stuffed and couldn't eat anymore. They then returned to Applebloom.

Applebloom: I guess you had a lot.

Scootaloo: Yeah. I don't think my stomach can handle anymore cookies and milk.

Sweetie Belle: Me neither.

Scootaloo: How about you?

Applebloom: I've had a few customers, but not a lot. :(

Scootaloo: Well, maybe those other ponies will come along and buy more milk now that we've had some of theirs.

They waited for a while, but nopony showed up.

Sweetie Belle: Maybe it's because the milk we have is too boring. I have an idea.

Scootaloo: I'll take over for running the stand, you and Applebloom go carrying on with your idea, Sweetie Belle.

Sweetie Belle: OK.

So Scootaloo took over running the stand while Sweetie Belle and Applebloom returned to Sweet Apple Acres. They were with the cows.

Applebloom: So what is your plan, Sweetie Belle?

Sweetie Belle: Well, I think that if we can get the cows to eat these berries I found, we could change the flavor of their milk.

Daisy Jo: Now now, that's not how it works.

Sweetie Belle: Come on, Daisy. Please eat these berries.

Daisy Jo: If you want flavored milk, you use a syrup to do it.

Sweetie Belle: Please?

Daisy Jo: Alright.

Sweetie Belle put the bucket of berries in front of Daisy Jo and she started to eat them. When she was finished, Applebloom then milked her. She took a taste of the milk.

Sweetie Belle: Well?

Applebloom: Nothing. It just tastes like ordinary milk.

Daisy Jo: I told you so, but those berries were delicious.

Sweetie Belle: Maybe we should go with her advise and just at some syrup to the milk.

Applebloom: Yeah. We should do that.

So they went into the kitchen. Applebloom looked through the cabinets for syrup.

Sweetie Belle: Do we have any good syrup, Applebloom?

Applebloom: Ah'm looking.

She then found a bottle of apple syrup.

Applebloom: Found it.

She got it out and then poured some into the milk.

Applebloom: OK. Now to stir.

They got the large spoon and stirred the milk and syrup.

Applebloom: There we go.

Sweetie Belle: Now to pour it into the bottles.

So they poured the milk into the bottles and went back to Scootaloo.

Scootaloo: OK. So, what do you have there?

Applebloom: Apple flavored milk.

Sweetie Belle: We first tried to make different flavored milk by having the cows eat some berries to flavor their milk, but that didn't work.

Applebloom: Daisy Jo did say we had to use syrup to make flavored milk.

Sweetie Belle: I'm sure we'll get some customers now.

Then Pinkie Pie came by.

Pinkie Pie: Hey, girls. Mr. and Mrs. Cake told me to buy some milk from you.

Applebloom: Well, we have some new milk in stock.

Sweetie Belle: Introducing Apple Milk.

Pinkie: Oooooh. I'll take a bottle and some bottles of regular milk for the Cakes.

So Pinkie bought one bottle of Apple Milk and 6 bottles of regular milk. She then left.

Applebloom: Thanks, Pinkie.

That evening, Applejack was feeling a lot better. Big Mac and Granny Smith were taking care of her all day.

Applejack: Oh. I'm glad you girls did pretty well today.

Applebloom: We did. The ponies really like our milk.

Sweetie Belle: We made our own type of milk. It's called Apple Milk.

Applejack: Did you just try to milk an apple?

The crusaders then laughed at what Applejack just said.

Applebloom: No.

Sweetie Belle: We just poured Apple Syrup into the milk.

Applejack: At that got you customers?

Scootaloo: It sure did.

Applejack: Well, I think you might have a future in selling milk, Applebloom.

Applebloom: Really? So, I might get my cutie-mark now?

She looked at her flank, but nothing.

Applejack: Maybe not right now, but you did do something to improve our business.

Applebloom: Great.
