== Summary ==
After Bob & Prairie introduce the viewer themselves, they suddenly hear a sobbing woman (Whoopi Goldberg), who they discover is the Fairy Godmother of Cinderella. Since Cinderella doesn't need her anymore, she's out of a job and wants to be someone's Godmother. Bob declines her offer, but Prairie Dawn (seeing the magic of her wand) decides to give it a whirl.
Prairie becomes confused at the ordeal, but the Godmother assures her there's really a ball (having experienced it with Cinderella previously). She spots an apple in Prairie's hands, and with a wave of her magic wand, transforms it into a coach.
Prairie complains about her apple, but Bob reminds her she can summon her Fairy Godmother. She calls for her, who arrives in a flash, but the Fairy Godmother realizes she's forgotten Prairie's carriage. She looks for mice, but the sight of Bob immediately changes her mind, meaning Bob gets transformed into a horse!
The Fairy Godmother is summoned back, who is told to listen to Prairie and Horse-Bob's problem. However, she discovers that Prairie doesn't have a fancy dress, so she changes her outfit to a beautiful gown.
The Godmother becomes curious why Prairie hasn't left for the ball. Prairie explains how she's much unlike Cinderella, and would rather not go to the ball and instead play her piano. The Godmother reverts everything back to normal, and Prairie decides she doesn't need her, which makes her sad again. At the end, Bob brings the orchestra back and gives the Fairy Godmother a new job: being a conductor. Now she's happy again.
