Break the Cutie/Western Animation: Difference between revisions

** Pinkie breaks again in "Baby Cakes", where she [[Badly-Battered Babysitter|suffers all sorts of indignities trying to prove she's responsible enough to look after the Cakes' new foals]]. After Pound Cake (a pegasus) and Pumpkin Cake (a unicorn) start manifesting their respective powers of flight and magic and making even ''more'' mischief, Pinkie finally snaps and bursts into tears.

** Applejack gets this treatment ''two episodes in a row''. In "The Last Round-up", her inability to win a single blue ribbon or earn any prize money for Ponyville breaks her so hard she can't face returning to Ponyville since she feels she let everyone down. In "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000", the apparent loss of her home and vocation drives Applejack to tears.

** Fluttershy gets this ''hard'' in ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2 E22 Hurricane Fluttershy|Hurricane Fluttershy]]''. In fact, it happens ''three times!'' First when Rainbow Dash trying to get her to join in making the tornado brings up a pretty brutal bullying incident from her foalhood. Second when some ponies laugh at her wing speed test, sending her running off practically crying her eyes out. And then, after she manages to train a lot, finding out it wasn't nearly enough and once more running off in tears. [[The Woobie|Poor thing...]]

* [[Scooby Doo Mystery Inc]] breaks all four at once in the season finale. After Mayor Jones is {{spoiler|revealed to not only have been the Freak Of Crystal Cove and kidnapped Freddy as an infant from his real parents to raise, but now Freddy has dissolved the team to look for his parents. Meanwhile, Shaggy's parents are shipping him to military school, and Velma is on the outs with everyone for keeping Angel Dynamite's identity a secret from them. Daphne is absolutely devastated as Fred had proposed marriage to her in episode 24, but now that's off as Fred seeks to discover who he really is.}}
