Episode 62	Somnambula (Part 2)	Aired: September 22, 1987
At the door, they know their friends are in there and have to go in and request the younger ponies head back a few feet. The others listen while the boys use teamwork to get the door open. Once inside, they realize that the festivaties could be why the others haven't returned home but Score feels there's something more to it. They find the others one by one but none of them listen and are quite aged compared to normal. The group move on and find Heart Throb in the midst of her performance but when they remove the sheet over Heart Throb's face, they realize just how old Heart Throb is. It doesn't get any better when they find Gingerbread just as old. They must get the others out regardless of what's out there but even they cannot resist when items relevent to their intrests appear and have to be pulled away as a song takes shape. The song ends as everyone else agrees to stay way but Somnambula refuses to quit and gets the bird to sing once more, prompting the others to give in to the illusions presented to them. Satisfied that they're playing her game, Somnambula walks out, allowing the bird to make her escape by breaking the cage and removing the bars of the nearby window. Once outside, the bird finds the baby ponies and relays the information regarding Somnambula and the others. They get the bird to help and head into the festivities before the bird sings an alternate sound that breaks the ponies from their trance. The ponies reunite but none of the girls know what's happened to them. All they need is Buttons but there's no sign of her anywhere and Somnambula appears to make sure they never find her. However, Score gets a plan into action whereby some follow him into the secret passage Somnambula opened up while the others protect the younger ponies. While Score and two others target the door, the others deal with the angry illusions and end up taking down the gingerbread house. Slugger is reminded that Buttons is probably on the other side of the door and kicks it down. It's now clear to the bird that Somnambula gets her youth from the earth ponies and the powers from the unicorns and ends up being recaptured by Somnambula when she overhears. Worse still, the bird's beak is trapped and unable to sing so Slugger decides to take Somnambula down himself. Somnambula is ready and chains them up but Slugger is too strong to be held back and breaks out before destroying the crystal keeping her young and the others old. Everyone is freed while Somnambula is left old and heads out in defeat. Where's Buttons and Slugger? They come out of the hole safe and sound and now they decide it's time to go home where it's safe.
