Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Fanfic Fuel: Amethyst Star, better known in the fandom as Sparkler, was shown in this episode as Dinky's sister. Dinky is almost always portrayed as Ensemble Darkhorse Derpy Hooves's daughter in fan works, so bronies had a field day figuring out ways to fit Sparkler in the ever so popular "Derpy Family" Fanon.
  • One-Scene Wonder: One scene with wet hair/mane Rarity...or as been called in the fandom, "Rainity"...has inspired...um...a great deal of fanart, to say the least.
    • The Sweetie Belle sliding on the floor scene is very popular too.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: A general consensus among the fans, is that Celestia reading the Friendship Lesson with Luna should have been included.
    • With the focus of the episode on sisterhood, some fans were hoping for an appearance from Pinkie's sisters as well.
  • The Woobie: Sweetie Belle spends the whole first act trying to do nice things for her big sister only to have everything blow up in her face and get yelled at.
