Sweet and Smoky.
Episode Description:
Accompanied by Fluttershy and Spike, Smolder takes a week off from class to visit and attempt to cheer up her brother in the Dragon Lands. To Spike and Fluttershy's dismay, however, her brother turns out to be Garble, who still delights in bullying Spike. Fluttershy and Smolder separately confront him and his friends over their behavior and Fluttershy later finds that Garble secretly enjoys writing beat poetry, but is afraid to perform in public due to his fear of being ridiculed by his friends. Meanwhile, Dragon Lord Ember is worried that a clutch of dragon eggs is taking far too long to hatch; Spike discovers that the ground is too cold to let the eggs develop and realizes that Garble's friends have been draining an underground lava reservoir so that they can surf and swim. Encouraged by Smolder, Garble performs his poetry for the other dragons, causing them to laugh so hard that they produce a fire hot enough to hatch the eggs. Ember proclaims that her subjects will start to celebrate their differences rather than make fun of them, and she and several other dragons ask Garble to teach them about writing poetry.
