A "Rainbow Crash" landing

Little finger tells her that they're watching Rainbow Nuance, who'due south performing a series of aerial stunts. Rarity and Pinkie remark how dazzling Rainbow Nuance is, and the three watch her in admiration. However, something appears to go wrong, and the ponies picket in horror as Dash plummets to the ground.

Rainbow Dash in the infirmary, with the balance of the Mane Six effectually her.
Rainbow Dash regains consciousness in a infirmary bed with her friends standing effectually her. She finds that her right fly is bandaged and groans. Physician Horse tells Twilight that Rainbow Dash is going to exist fine, just that she will need to be in the hospital for a few days, to which Dash voices her frustration. Her friends try to cheer her up, but Dash can just sulk under the bed sheets.
Twilight notices a nurse walking by with a cart of books and brings one, Daring Do and the Quest for the Sapphire Stone, over to Dash. Rainbow Dash immediately and rudely tosses the book away, proverb that reading is "for eggheads" and "uncool". Her friends chuckle at her view of reading, saying that everyone enjoys reading from fourth dimension to time. The nurse walks in and tells the ponies that they'll have to come back tomorrow. Just before leaving, Twilight tells Rainbow Dash that she'd like Daring Do and the 2 of them are a lot akin.
I'yard an egghead!

Reading with nothing enthusiasm.
Following a shot of a clock on the wall showing that it's one o'clock, Rainbow Dash makes several attempts to laissez passer the time—bouncing a brawl off the wall, having her lunch (getting a glass briefly stuck on her cage), turning her bedside lamp on and off, and telling jokes to her silent and immobile roommate. A bored-looking Rainbow Dash glances up to the clock and groans loudly every bit it turns to one minute by one.
Rainbow Dash looks to the book on her nightstand. She refuses to pick it up at offset, just later on a couple more reluctant peeks, she sighs in give up and picks it up to outset reading. As she reads, Dash finds herself instantly identifying with the main character, who also has an injured wing.

Introducing Daring Do.
Rainbow Dash continues reading the book aloud, and the scene fades to the events told inside, where Daring Do, a chocolate-brown-coated, grey-maned Pegasus with the same mane fashion every bit Rainbow Dash herself, makes her way through a tropical jungle and finds herself surrounded by a tiger, a black panther, a lynx, a chetah, and a white firm true cat. Daring flees from the wildcats and uses a vine to swing beyond a chasm. Rainbow Dash'south narration returns, and she reads that Daring Exercise finds herself in front of the ancient temple that she'd been seeking.
The scene cuts back to Rainbow Dash, who comes to grips with the fact that she loves the book (and reading) and that she is now an egghead.
Hiding the truth

Just deed natural.
Following another passage of the book, in which Daring Do braves the ancient temple'due south numerous traps and pitfalls, a knock at the door interrupts Rainbow Dash. She rapidly hides the book under the covers as Twilight and Fluttershy enter the room. They come to assist Rainbow Dash with her boredom with a Battleship-style game, which Dash purposely loses and apace puts away. Before the 2 tin can question Dash's odd beliefs, she chases them out with the pretense of trying to sleep. When they leave, Dash retrieves the book and continues reading.
Daring Practise makes her way past more obstacles and comes to the Sapphire Rock. After briefly surveying the surface area effectually it, she picks information technology up and tucks it under her hat. This sets off a trap that causes the sleeping accommodation to beginning collapsing and filling with lava. Daring Do jumps from the collapsing pillars and escapes the chamber through a skylight, simply a gust of air from the chamber blasts her clear into the jungle, where she falls correct at the feet of a strange dog-similar fauna. The animal cheerfully says "how-do-you-do, Rainbow Nuance" with Pinkie Pie's voice, and the story shifts back to Rainbow Dash's infirmary room.

Ahuizotl's triumphant laugh!
Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rarity enter the room and inquire nigh Dash'south well being. Nurse Snowheart and so enters with Nuance's dinner, which Dash eats messily, and her friends bid an bad-mannered good day and go out the room in disgust. Rainbow Dash spits out the food and picks up the book again.
The dog-like creature named Ahuizotl captures Daring Exercise and ties her to a stone table in another booby-trapped room, then sets off the traps and leaves. Spiked walls start closing in, spiders crawl over the spikes, cobras emerge from the mouth of an decoration on the wall, and quicksand starts filling the room. The story is once once again interrupted, this time by Doctor Equus caballus—who informs her that she's to be discharged from the hospital, and the nurses hastily cycle her out the front end door earlier she can end the volume.
Getting the book back

Ninja Dash.
Rainbow Dash despairs that she'll never find out what happens to Daring Do. She remembers that Twilight has a re-create of the book, only subsequently having called her an egghead, she despairs even more. Rainbow Nuance attempts to admit herself into the hospital again by faking an injury. Physician Horse doesn't fall for the ruse, however, so Rainbow Dash sneaks into the infirmary at night.
Rainbow Dash returns to the room she was staying in and sees a new patient occupying the bed. Underneath the bed, she finds the book. She continues reading immediately, but she ends up waking the patient and alerting the infirmary staff. As Rainbow Dash makes her getaway, her fly cramps upward mid-flight and she crashes, causing her to lose the book. Before she can recover it, the hospital staff hunt her out of the hospital and through Ponyville.

Busted!
The noisy pursuit wakes Rainbow Dash's friends from their slumber, and all parties meet in front of the Golden Oak Library. When asked what'south going on, Dash admits to being an egghead and explains that she liked the book Twilight gave her, and she tried stealing it from the hospital so she could finish reading it. Understanding of her plight, Dash's friends tell her she didn't need to make a ruckus—or, as Little finger puts information technology, a fracas—over a book.
Twilight lets Rainbow Nuance borrow her copy of the book, and Rainbow apologizes for everything that's happened. Twilight explains that reading is something everyone can savor if they give it a endeavor, and Rainbow Dash learns not to knock something until she's tried information technology.
Epilogue

Awesome!
The scene shifts back to the Daring Practice story. Overcome by the quicksand, Daring Exercise flings her hat off of her hoof; it bounces off the walls and ceiling earlier hitting the trap lever to its original position. The walls and the quicksand recede, and a door opens leading outside. The scene cuts to Ahuizotl petting the white house-true cat and gloating over his victory. Suddenly, Daring Do swings down from a vine and snatches the Sapphire Statue right out of his hand. As Ahuizotl weeps over his defeat, Daring Do gallops off.
Rainbow Dash finishes reading the book in her chamber and delightedly picks upward another book, Daring Exercise and the Griffon's Goblet.
