Plot
When Twilight gets the word that it's Pinkie Pie's birthday tomorrow, she tells the rest of her friends and they completely forgot about it. Now they are not sure how they'll be able to celebrate Pinkie Pie's birthday, unaware of Pinkie Pie's secret plan to call on The Bear Trio, Buford B. Bear, Pierre Panda, and Plex Polar Bear to plan her party just right. The next day, the bear trio comes to town and ask just exactly how Pinkie Pie would like her party set up. Once they get all the requirements listed, Buford requests for everypony to help out to make Pinkie Pie's party the way she likes it. Everything seems to be going according to plan, and it's almost time for the party, but then Buford realizes he's forgetting the cupcakes Pinkie Pie wanted. So to keep everypony waiting, he asks Pierre and Plex to be the special entertainment on the stage while he gets the cupcakes. Unsure what to do at first, Pierre and Plex look at the crow nervously while on stage, only then does Pierre get an idea. He starts dancing around Plex, and gets him to follow his lead, when suddenly Pierre accidentally slips and falls into a nearby pile of supplies, getting the pony crowd to laugh. This gives the idea that ponies get their entertainment out of others' suffering, which leads Pierre and Plex to perform a whole sequence of voilent slapstick gags. Meanwhile in sugarcube corner, Mrs. Cake gives Buford the requested cupcakes and returns them to the party area, being sure not to drop them. Meanwhile, Pierre & Plex are out of ideas for gags to keep the audience entertained any longer, so they tell the audience they'll be right back, and leave backstage to go check on Buford, only to accidentally bump into him seconds later, and nearly ruining the cupcakes. Then, the party is all set, the bear trio have Pinkie Pie's party planned as desired. With one last thing needing to be done, Plex nervously breaks a giant ice cube, revealing an ice sculpture of Pinkie Pie, making the crowd cheer. Buford praises the bear brothers and ponyville a job well done, and the bear trio joins the party. Afterwards, the bear trio leaves and thank Pinkie for calling them to make her birthday party.
