Plot
The episode begins with Skyler frantically running through her and her friends' dorms at Rainbow High, with it being very clear she's lost something. Sunny reaches out to help, with everyone being told by Ms. Wright that they must report to Rainbow World immediately. Once there Ms. Morton tells the girls about how color is disappearing from Moonbow Beach, with this leading all the girls to head through a portal to find out what's been going on.
With everyone now at Moonbow Beach, they're greeted by Clementine who unintentionally scares everyone. After everyone calms down, the girls realize Moonbow Beach has been trashed, with Clementine telling them that The Moonbow Mare did it and has been running around opening portals. After this everyone teams up to try to catch the mare, with Skyler realizing her lost purse is hooked to the saddle, being the source of the mare's teleportation. Feeling even more determined, everyone teams up to catch her and even sings the song "We're Not Horsing Around", with this still not letting them catch her.
Feeling defeated, the girls continue thinking of ways to stop the mare, with this leading Skyler to reveal she had left her bag full of liquid rainbow there yesterday, with this being the way The Moonbow Mare has been able to open portals. When asked why she didn't say this sooner, she reveals she was embarrassed, with this giving her the idea of luring the mare with apples. This ends up working and she grabs her bag, with everyone ending the episode happily lounging on the beach.
