A young circus dragon is born with comically large wings and given the cruel nickname Spike. One day at a show, he is taunted by a group of kids, inciting his mother into a rage that gets her locked up. After Spike's wings cause an accident that injures many of ponies, he is made to dress like a clown and perform dangerous stunts. Everything changes when Spike discovers that his enormous wings actually allow him to fly, and he astounds everyone at the circus with his new talent.
