Ruby and Jaune entering Beacon Academy's giant auditorium, filled to the brim with people. Ruby looks over when she hears Yang's voice.

Yang: (waving) Ruby! Over here! I saved you a spot!

Ruby: (to Jaune) Oh! Hey, I-I gotta go! I'll see you after the ceremony! (leaves)

"Oh, c'mon, don't leave the dude hanging," Rainbow groaned, shaking her head.

Jaune: Hey, wait! (sighs) Ah, great. Where am I supposed to find another nice, quirky girl to talk to?! (he moves on to reveal Pyrrha standing behind him, hand on her hips as she watches him walk away.)

"Why not look behind you?" Spike joked, getting the others to roll their eyes.

Yang: (once Ruby joins her, crosses her arms) How's your first day going, little sister?

Ruby: You mean since you ditched me and I exploded?

"You did ditch her," Fluttershy mumbled. That wasn't a nice thing for an older sister to do.

Yang: Yikes! Meltdown already?

"Not in the normal sense," Applejack muttered.

Ruby: No, I literally exploded a hole in front of the school! And there was some fire, and I think some ice...?

Yang: (smiling broadly) Are you being sarcastic?

"How is that being sarcastic?" asked Spike. There was no hint of sarcasm in Ruby's voice.

Ruby: (scoffs as the camera pans around to reveal Weiss right next to her) I wish!

"She wishes," Luna said at the same time as Ruby.

"Hah! Jinx!" Spike yelled, causing the others to giggle.

Ruby: I tripped over some crabby girl's luggage, and then she yelled at me, and then I sneezed, and then I exploded, and then she yelled at me again, and I felt really, really bad, and I just wanted her to stop yelling at me!

Weiss: You!

Ruby: (quickly jumping into her sister's arms) Oh, God, it's happening again!

Weiss: You're lucky we weren't blown off the side of the cliff!

Yang: (deadpan) Oh my God, you really exploded.

"Now you get it," Luna said, shaking her head in disappointment.

Ruby: It was an accident. (getting down; to Weiss) It was an accident! (Weiss holds up a pamphlet titled "DUST for dummies and other Inadequate Individuals" to Ruby) What's this?

Weiss: (listing off policies to a clueless and horrified Ruby, going faster and higher pitched with each word) The Schnee Dust Company is not responsible for any injuries or damages sustained while operating a Schnee Dust Company product. Although not mandatory, the Schnee Family highly encourages their customers to read and familiarize themselves with this easy to follow guide to Dust applications and practices in the field.

Ruby: Uuhhh...?

"Did she just say a disclaimer?" Spike asked with the girls blinking confusedly. Pinkie, on the other hand, was laughing at the silly moment.

Weiss: You really wanna start making things up to me?

Ruby: Absolutely?

Weiss: (handing the pamphlet to Ruby) Read this, and don't ever speak to me again.
