## Plot

At Sugarcube Corner, the Mane Six are bored, lamenting that they mostly get into comedic situations instead of going on adventures like they used to, and are desperate for something exciting to happen. Just then, the unicorn from the end of "Potion Mystery" appears. She introduces herself as a potion maker named Potion Nova and reveals she is the one who restocks Pinkie's fridge with potions every night. However, her own potion supply has run dry, and she asks the Mane Six to escort her safely to the Potion Ocean so she can replenish her supply.

Twilight Sparkle, having been excited to meet Potion Nova and become her apprentice, jumps at this opportunity to go on an adventure. All throughout the journey to the Potion Ocean, she expects to run into multiple magical obstacles, but the journey is mostly mundane, with Potion Nova saying not all magic has to be flashy and exciting. When the group finally reaches the Potion Ocean, Twilight appreciates its beauty.

When asked why she needed the Mane Six's help for such a harmless adventure, Potion Nova admits that she simply needed help carrying her new supply of potions and that she enjoyed the ponies' company. She also decides to take Twilight on as her apprentice, and Twilight is overjoyed.
