Line 29:
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: Even though they're portraying other characters, it's still disconcerting to watch as beloved members of the Mane Six freeze solid with their faces contorted with hatred.
** The roar of the Wendigos.
* [[Rescued Fromfrom the Scrappy Heap]]: The writer of this episode was the Merriweather Williams who was the writer for "The Mysterious Mare Do Well," an episode that had gotten an unhappy reception due to its odd writing and negative characterizations. This episode was very well received and is considered Merriweather's redemption as a writer.
** Williams ''had'' written for several other shows before; just that "The Mysterious Mare Do Well" was (as best we know) her first outing with the ponies. While still a great turnaround, it's not as drastic when you consider that she's not an unknown in the industry...especially when you consider that the episodes of previous shows she had written for were fan favorites (You can thank her, Aaron Springer and C.H. Greenblat for amoung other things that "'''[[SpongeBob SquarePants|CHOCOLATE!]]'''" meme, the fan-favorite episode ''Band Geeks'', and ''[[The Ugly Barnacle]]'').
* [[Stealth Pun]]: Rainbow Dash got (at least) 20% cooler in 10 seconds flat. Just not the type of "cool" she'd likely want.
