In Not Asking for Trouble, Prince Rutherford invites Pinkie Pie to the Yakyakistan holiday of Yickslurbertfest. However, during their celebratory stomping, the yaks accidentally cause an avalanche that covers the village in snow. Pinkie Pie offers to bring her pony friends to help, but Rutherford refuses out of personal pride, even telling Pinkie that he once managed to survive an entire winter without help when he got stuck inside a hole during his childhood. In the end, Pinkie brings her friends to clear the snow away in secret. With the yaks' pride preserved, Rutherford declares Pinkie an honorary yak and "the best kind of friend".
