** And, for once, Rainbow Dash, in her prep-school outfit while posing with the owl.

{{quote| '''Rainbow Dash:''' You ''would'' think that, Twilight. And that's why ''you'' [[Accidental Innuendo|would never qualify to be my pet]].}}
* [[Art Evolution]]: Applejack's freckles no longer disappear as she runs.<ref>this happened in Season 1 due to animators screwing up when they created AJ's standard run cycle.</ref>

* [[Cool Shades]]: Rainbow Dash adopts these during her "radical" pose.
** [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] by the turtle <ref> ahem, ''[[Running Gag|tortoise]]''</ref>, donning a pair when Rainbow Dash talks about needing a "cool pet".
* [[Continuity Nod]] This is not the first time Fluttershy's noticed [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
* [[Cute Kitten]]: The "puddy tat" Fluttershy nominates as a potential pet is [[Tastes Like Diabetes|ridiculously doe-eyed and adorable]]. Rainbow Dash isn't swayed by the [[Cuteness Proximity]] one bit.
* [[Dandere]]: Fluttershy goes from hoping Dash won't be mad at them and pawing the ground nervously to positively [[Squee|Squeeing]] when Dash suggests she's interested in getting a pet.
Line 99:
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Rainbow Dash:''' But I said whoever crosses the finish line ''with'' me gets to be my pet.}}<br />
'''Pinkie Pie:''' You ''did''! You ''did'' say that! She ''did'' say that! That was the rule! }}
* [[Everything's Worse
* [[Expy]]: The tortoise to the one from "The Tortoise and the Hare." Both were not expected to win, but put forth [[The Determinator|their best effort anyway]], and this tenacity<ref>[[Gesundheit]]</ref> [[Underdogs Never Lose|paid off in the end]].
** However, in a bit of a twist, the tortoise in this episode doesn't actually win the race himself, but comes out on top in a different way.
Line 120:
'''Twilight:''' Tenacity!<br />
'''Rainbow Dash:''' Gesundheit. }}
** Oddly taken literally when Rainbow Dash asks this of the eagle after the [[Leaning
* [[Graceful Loser]]: The falcon politely shakes {{spoiler|Tank's hand}} despite being obviously crushed by Rainbow Dash's [[Loophole Abuse]].
<!-- %%I do not see why this should be deleted. It is an example of the trope. -->
Line 127:
** [[Fridge Brilliance|Living with Twilight Sparkle has taught him]] that at any given moment Twilight can [[Super OCD|decide to prepare triple-redundant to-do lists]] or [[Once an Episode|dictate a letter to the Princess.]] [[Crazy Prepared|He's never been caught off-guard in this regard even once.]]
* [[The Hedge of Thorns]]: There is one in the Ghastly Gorge where the pets pass through.
* [[Hoist
* [[The Hypnotoad]]: The butterfly uses his wings to hypnotize Opalescence and easily snags away her toy while she's entranced.
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]:
Line 150:
* [[Late to The Punchline]]: Fluttershy is two minutes into the song before she gets the impression that Dash wants a flying pet, despite Dash making it pretty clear within the first thirty seconds that this is what she wants.

* [[Mythology Gag]]: Rainbow Dash seems to be back to [http://i1216.photobucket.com/albums/dd363/xenu_photo9/style.jpg dressing in style].
* [[Never Say "Die"]]: Averted, to some degree, in the tortoise's "radical" display: The course includes a ring of fire, a guillotine and a pool of circling sharks. However, the pool appears to be a wind-up toy, based on a turning key on its side. And of course, the tortoise never gets a chance to actually run through any of the obstacles.
** Rainbow Dash also worries that her pinned wing will leave her trapped forever. The thought of dying of starvation rather than simply being stuck indefinitely doesn't seem to occur to her (though it may depend on your interpretation of her fears).
* [[Non Indicative Title]]: The animals are competing to become a pet, and as such, are not yet pets.
Line 184:
