Later in the episode, she is one of many Crystal Ponies having become depressed as a result of King Sombra's curse. Hearing news of the Crystal Faire lifts her spirits and returns color to her coat and mane. While at the Faire, Sapphire Joy is accosted by Rainbow Dash, who aggressively tries to give her treats.

In The Crystal Empire - Part 2, Sapphire Joy has other forms of fun at the Crystal Faire, like watching Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy's jousting match.
