A lot of words describe Rainbow Dash. Athletic. Lazy. Brash. But her main problem stems from how others assume that list includes [[Mistaken for Gay|fillyfooler]]. After her big date is ruined by this stereotype, Rainbow [[Just for Pun|dashes]] off to collect her thoughts.

A very different set of words describe Caramel. Meek. Introverted. Undervalued. His main problem is that when others don't think of him as unimportant, he's a pedophillic coltcuddler. But after two chance meetings in [[Crash Into Hello|the Sweet Apple Acres fields]] and a [[What Did I Do Last Night|bar]], the new breakfast-buddies slowly learn to look past what others think about them.

** Caramel has it even worse, with many ponies (including Applejack at first) thinking that he's not only gay but a pedophile to boot.

* [[Mistaken for Pedophile]]: Poor Caramel. He is generally assumed to be one by many ponies in Ponyville and is briefly thought to be one by Applejack when Rainbow Dash crashes into him and knocks him out then abandons him a short distance from where the Cutie Mark Crusaders clubhouse is. Applejack was about to beat the poor fellow up worse than he already had been if her brother hadn't talked her down.

* [[My God What Have I Done]]: Rainbow Dash gets a version of this when Caramel figures out Rainbow was the one who crashed into him in the forest, then failed to mention it while simultaneously taking advantage of his kindness. Her [[Jerkass Facade]] falters for a moment, and she flies off so Caramel won't see her crying.

* [[Nice Guy]]: Caramel, big time. One of the reasons Rainbow is becoming fond of him.

* [[Never My Fault]]: [[Played for Drama]] where Rainbow's huge ego makes it impossible for her to outright apologize when Caramel find out she was the one to crash into him. She eventually gets a half-hearted response out the next day, and Caramel decides getting to know her better was a fair tradeoff.

* [[Throw the Dog A Bone]]: Most of Chapter 10. Caramel realizes that Applejack isn't interested in him, but he gets the chance to be with Rainbow. Fluttershy, despite [[My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 E17 Hearts and Hooves Day|yesterday's]] misunderstanding, successfuly asks Big Macintosh out. And Rarity and Pinkie have a "date."

* [[What Did I Do Last Night]]: Rainbow Dash's second real interaction with Caramel happens when she wakes up in his bed. However, it's all rather innocent, as Rainbow drank a spiked beer and Caramel let her stay in his house until she woke up.
