Ponyville's pegasi are challenged to create a tornado to move water from their reservoir to Cloudsdale for the cloud-making machine. Rainbow Dash wants all the pegasi to improve their speed to beat the record, but finds that Fluttershy suffers from public anxiety from her time at flight school. Fluttershy tries to train on her own with her animal friends, and while she does improve, her performance is far worse than the other pegasi, and runs off. On the day of the attempt, a number of pegasi have come down with a flu, and they barely have enough to assure that the tornado can be made successfully. After a botched first attempt, their second tornado falls just short of the necessary speed. Twilight convinces Fluttershy to try to help; Fluttershy is able to dispel her fears long enough to give enough speed to complete the tornado. Rainbow Dash and the other pegasi cheer Fluttershy on as their hero.
