Tempest mocks Twilight for being a princess of friendship yet having no friends. After Twilight asks about Tempest's motives Tempest and how they're alike, Tempest responds with how they're nothing alike and jumps onto her cage. Tempest sings a song to Twilight and explains how she lost her horn and explains how she dislikes friendship for making her feel alone. Twilight admits she feels sorry for Tempest which causes Tempest to state that friendship also failed Twilight. This causes Twilight to think about her friends and how she failed her friendship with them. Twilight attempts to convince Tempest to not hand her to the Storm King, however, she refuses as she wants to try the magic.
