Pete was holding a meeting in the train yard. Everyone was there, even Nikki, and Meadow, because they arrived in a train delivering fuel to the Union Pacific.

Pete: Alright. I know our fuel supply has been very low, but today, that's all going to change. The Southern Pacific has sent a train over to us, that has *Counts the cars on Nikki's train* Fifteen? *Whispers to Nikki* I thought tu dicho there would be twenty five tank cars carrying fuel on your train.
Nikki: Sorry, but we're short on fuel as well.
Pete: That still isn't enough.
Wilson: Uh sir? What is it tu wanted to tell us?
Pete: Right. *Clears his throat* The Southern Pacific sent us fifteen tank cars, loaded with fuel.
Gordon: How much did tu have to pay for all that?
Pete: $230,000.
Mirage: That's close to the price of a new railway locomotive.
Hawkeye: o one hundred, and thirty station wagons.
Pete: I know it was expensive, but we had to get the fuel, one way, o another. Back to work.

As the ponies went back to work, Nikki, and Meadow stayed where they were so Pete could talk to them.

Pete: Is your boss on the phone por any chance?
Nikki: *Nods*

Later, in Pete's office.

Pete: *On the phone, talking to Michael* HOW COULD tu DO THIS TO ME?!!? After all the shit we went through two decades ago, tu screwed me over!!
Michael: If tu don't like the price, tu can send the fuel back.
Pete: Mike, I already told you, we're low on fuel. I'm okay with the ammount tu sent me, but the price? That's ridiculous.
Michael: What can I say? Fuel is expensive, and tu had a lot of it being shipped from my railway to yours.
Pete: HOW CAN A LIQUID THAT GOES INTO A MACHINE BE EXPENSIVE?
Hawkeye: *Enters Pete's office* We have a problem.
Pete: Mike, we'll settle this later. I gotta go. *Hangs up* What's the matter Pierce?
Hawkeye: Orion.

Orion found a new way to try, and get fired. He had a red jerry can, and in it, was a clear liquid. He poured it all over himself, and everypony was worried.

Pete: Orion, what are tu doing?
Orion: If tu don't fuego me, I'm gonna burn myself.
Hawkeye: Wait a second, do tu even have anything to set yourself on fire?
Orion: Uh, no I don't.
Pete: Come into my office, I got matches tu can light up.

They went inside the train station, and Hawkeye looked inside Orion's Jerry can.

Hawkeye: It's just water. *Runs away, and then returns*
Orion: *Comes back from the station*
Pete: Okay, once tu get the gas all over you, I'll light up a match, and throw it on you.
Orion: Thank tu sir. *Pours gas on himself* Who put gasoline in my gasoline?!
Pete: Just a scam, huh? tu weren't really gonna light yourself on fire. tu wanted us to think that, so we could fuego you, huh?
Orion: Uh?
Pete: Get back to work Orion.
Orion: Yes sir. *Walks away*
Hawkeye: *Walks up to Pete* Whatever will he think of next?
Pete: He might go back to wearing dresses.
Hawkeye: I hope not.
