My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2/E02 The Return of Harmony Part 2/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Funny Aneurysm Moment: In the ending, Derpy Hooves can be seen, sans crossed eyes. Sound familiar?
  • Moral Event Horizon: If he didn't already cross it in the previous episode, Discord certainly does in this one with his reaction towards Twilight Sparkle crossing the Despair Event Horizon. What is Discord's reaction to what is considered one of the biggest Tear Jerkers thus far in the series? To give a Big Yes and laugh his head off at her suffering.
  • Narm Charm: Yes, Discord's turned Ponyville into a bright-colored and silly world, but that does not make Twilight's Despair Event Horizon any less heartbreaking.
  • What an Idiot!: Fluttershy knows Rainbow Dash is corrupted, but she ruins what could have been a quick and effective plan by waking her up first and then asking if she can be held down against her will. Firstly, what would have happened if Dash had said "yes"? Secondly, why would she do that beyond a gag and an excuse to have a Chase Scene?
    • Makes sense after she had just been turned into a Jerkass and forced to treat her friends like dirt for a while. She's still getting over it and she probably won't allow herself to be forced on her friends again.
