Your Majesty, I have your morning tea.

Your Majesty?

Queen Eclipsa?

[gasps]

[wailing]

Oh, no. This is bad.

This is really, really bad.

Who's even powerful enough to queen-nap Eclipsa?

I don't know! The magical high commission, maybe?

-Or, uh... -[door opens]

It's just the mail! Please don't hurt me!

We'll see about that.

Oh! Maybe the queen-nappers left us a message?

Junk, junk. Hey, a bill from Seahorse.

Well, all that stuff you vanished on my show was not free.

All right. Looks like this is a dead end.

Don't worry, B-fly, I got you.

I watch a lot of true-crime shows, so I'm basically a detective.

Ooh, we're gonna gather clues and probably chase people down.

And, oh! We'll have a super dramatic showdown

in, like, an old warehouse or something like--

-No, we don't have time for that. -Oh, okay. Well, fine, then.

That's fine, if you want to be basic about it.

-[gasps] -Whoa.

That's the creepiest thing I've ever seen.

-[camera whirrs] -Okay, okay. Where are you?

Who dares to spy on us?

Aah! Who are you, and what do you want?

We are the inner circle.

We require one thousand pounds of gold

before midnight!

If you ever want to see your queen again.

-Oh, yeah? Well, I-- -Silence!

If you keep using that infernal spying spell,

we'll toss your queen into the fire!

Now, close this portal and get that gold!

Okay, well, let's keep this under wraps for now.

If the townsfolk find out about this,

we could have a serious panic on our hands.

Right, right, right. But what if,

let's just say maybe, hypothetically, they already know?

-What? How? -Status update.

Oh, right.

Then I guess we'd better make an announcement.

Thank you, everyone, for coming.

First, I would like to announce that, yes,

the rumors are technically true.

Queen Eclipsa has been queen-napped.

-[whispering] -[man] Who's Queen Eclipsa?

But don't worry. We are going to find Eclipsa

and bring her back safely.

Yeah, I have a question.

How bad should I feel about this?

Because I do not feel bad right now.

-Yeah, who even likes Eclipsa? -Not me.

Uh, but, uh...

-But if we don't find her in three hours, she's gonna die! -[all gasp]

Pony, what is wrong with you! Why would you say that.

We need to keep the stakes really high to get people invested.

Why do you think I'm posting updates every five minutes?

-I'm keeping it fresh. -[groans]

Why don't we go to that park where all the hot bad boys

in leather jackets hang out with each other, you know what I mean?

-I bet they can hook us up with some clues. -No need, my dudes.

I've got our first clue right here.

All right, anyone see anything yet?

No, because this is a stupid waste of time, okay?

Janna just wanted us to go to the Underworld.

Uh, no. We came here because these fires

look just like the ones we saw in the All Seeing Eye.

Not that I mind the view.

Yeah, well, there are no hot bad boys here,

so I don't know what I'm supposed to take a photo of.

Yo, Earth turd, look cool!

-Huh? [exclaims] -Hmm, okay.

So maybe this was not a complete waste of time.

Guys, I think I just got a message from our queen-nappers.

[Marco] Wait, that doesn't look like the Underworld.

-Where did the fire go? -I don't know.

[gasps] Maybe they changed locations after I spied on them.

[reading text]

-That must be... -A graveyard!

A mattress store!

What? That's an option too.

Okay, yes! A spooky graveyard, a full moon.

This is the cool detective stuff I signed up for.

We're not trying to be cool detectives, Pony.

-This is serious. -[both gasp]

Hey, come back here!

Ooh, a graveyard chase! I am so live-streaming this!

Rainbow avalanche!

I got this! [shouts]

Who sent you?

Wait! Hold that pose!

We're kind of in the middle of something here.

Documentation is important, okay?

So do that pose again like you're gonna chop his head off.

And now move your arm up.

-Now make that super growly face. -Pony...

-Just do it! -[growls]

Yes! Work it, Princess!

Thank you, Earth turd. You may proceed.

Now, who are you--

-Babs? -[coughing] Sorry. Bronchitis.

Who sent you? Why were you trying to assassinate us?

The Assassin's Guild doesn't just do assassinations.

We also do spying,

death threats, ransom arrows...

Oh, you mean like this?

[reading]

Well, that's definitely not the graveyard.

Ugh! How are they always one step ahead of us?

I don't know about this, Star.

Why would the Merpeople have a shark in a tank?

Pony, The shark isn't in the tank, Eclipsa is.

That sounds like kind of a stretch to me.

It was all I could think of, okay?

Right now it's our best bet to finding Eclipsa.

-Eclipsa? Is she okay? -Have you found her yet?

No, not yet. We're still investigating some leads.

Well, don't give up. We're rooting for you.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I still hate Eclipsa.

But I'm kinda invested in the story at this point.

Yeah, Pony. Your live-stream is super addicting.

My whole life is very addicting.

Pony, you can't just broadcast our every move to the whole world.

That's probably how the queen-nappers keep outsmarting us.

I'm just giving the people what they want.

[seething]

[blows note]

You summoned me, Miss Butterfly?

Larry Kelpbottom! Just the fish-man I wanted to see.

I'm on to your little tricks. Where are you hiding her?

-Hiding who? -Oh, don't play dumb.

Your family never liked Eclipsa, did they?

-Wh-What? -It has to be you.

'Cause if it's not you,

I don't know what to do anymore.

Are you okay?

Whoa. Star is losing it!

Oh, boy, boy, boy, boy. You need to dial it back, girl.

You can't lose your head over this. Look at yourself!

This isn't who you are!

Eh, you're right, Pony.

I can't just lose... Wait a minute.

"I watch you from the water, but I never get..."

[exclaims] I was wrong!

[gasps] Sorry, dude! Guys, I figured out the riddle.

The answer isn't the Merpeople, it's your reflection.

So Eclipsa is trapped in a mirror!

No.

-So where are we going? -Here.

It's the bill from Reflectacorp. Tally it up.

It's a thousand pounds of gold. That's...

The exact same amount as the demand!

Uh-huh. Seahorse. He's the queen-napper.

Reflection. Reflectacorp. This has to be it!

How could Seahorse do such a thing?

I mean, he did say that he was in trouble with Reflectacorp

because of all the equipment that we destroyed.

I don't know. This is still weird.

If he wants the gold, why send all these clues

-leading us right to Eclipsa? -[Star] There it is!

The abandoned Reflectacorp warehouse.

[all shout, gasp]

I must get out!

[all] Eclipsa!

Don't worry, Eclipsa.

We will get you out of this thing.

-[grunting] -[gasps] No!

I almost had all 300 Snarlblecks!

-What? -[Seahorse] Uh-oh. You seem confused.

How about some help from your local Reflectacorp service provider?

What you have there is Reflectacorp's first foray

into biotech virtual reality.

Eclipsa has been playing one of our hit games,

-Wizard Spaceship! -[game beeping]

So this whole time, Eclipsa has just been

sitting here playing video games?

That is correct.

What about those fire pits? And that shark tank?

So glad you asked!

Those stunning, hi-def environments were created

using Reflectacorp's patented four-wall projector.

Optional floor and ceiling units sold separately.

What about the Inner Circle?

Are they fake too?

Oh, we're very much real.

[sinister laughter]

[all] Ta-da!

Pony Sisters? Okay, wait.

If you're in on this and Seahorse is in on this...

[gasps] Oh, no.

Oh, ye-e-e-s-s!

Ponyhead? You are behind all this? What-- How could you?

Wow! Ungrateful much?

We put a lot of work into those riddles, you know.

And of course there would have been way cleverer riddles

if we started at the park with the hot boys in their leather jackets, okay?

But no, no one wanted to listen to me, so... [blows raspberry]

But why? You sent us on an emotional roller coaster,

and you could have caused a riot on Mewni!

What? I was just keeping my promise to make Eclipsa super-popular.

And the new queen-napping segment is totally blowing up right now.

-Segment? -That's right, girl! [chuckles]

Seahorse, hit it!

-Aah! -Because you're still on...

[reality show theme plays]

The Ponyhead Show!

What?

Hi, Pony fans!

As you can see, I, Ponyhead,

used my super good detective skills to track down Eclipsa!

Girl, how's it feel to be rescued by me?

-What? -[chuckles] I know, right?

Then those evil queen-napper guys

tried to ambush us, so I beat them up,

and now they're going to jail!

-Like for real, though. -We never discussed this!

Oh, and Star was there too. Smile for the camera, Star.

Pony, Who is this even for?

Our loyal content subscribers.

They're watching the live feed on their Reflectacorp mirror phones.

Whoa, there's Eclipsa!

She's okay!

Hey, Eclipsa's been rescued!

How did everyone find out about this?

From my updates, B-fly.

The Mewmans may hate Eclipsa,

but there is no problem a good drama can't fix.

-[cheering] -No one messes with our queen!

There she is! Hey, Eclipsa!

-I love you! -I love you, Eclipsa!

Well, Ponyhead,

that was a totally awful thing to do.

But you did somehow end up helping Eclipsa,

so I can't really hold it against you.

Yeah! No consequences for Ponyhead!

And at least I don't have to pay that huge Reflectacorp bill.

Okay, no. That part was real.

You have to pay that, or they'll find you.
