Line 34:
Finally understanding that the ponies don't ''really'' hate her, Luna rescinds her ban and finally begins to enjoy the festival in earnest, especially when she playfully gives Rainbow Dash a much-deserved taste of her own medicine. Meanwhile, Twilight composes a report to Celestia about the importance of helping others make friends, no matter how intimidating they may first appear.

As of February 11th, 2012, this episode is recognized by [[The Hub]] as the best ''Friendship is Magic'' episode out of the first 38 to air<ref>the 37 from [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 E1 Mare in The Moon|"Friendship is Magic, part 1"]] to [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

=== Tropes ([[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
* [[Zero-Percent Approval Rating]]: Princess Luna discovers this problem after she appears, and Twilight and her friends try to help repair her image.
Line 77:
{{quote| '''Twilight Sparkle:''' Well...you kinda sound like you're yelling at me.<br />
'''Luna:''' But this is the traditional Royal Canterlot voice! It is tradition to speak with the [[Royal We|royal "we"]], and to use '''''THIS MUCH VOLUME WHEN ADDRESSING OUR SUBJECTS.''''' }}
* [[Continuity Nod]]: The whole premise of this episode mirrors [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
** Twilight says that Pipsqueak moved from Trottingham, a place previously mentioned in "[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 E17 Stare Master|Stare Master]]".
** At first it seems odd that Pinkie Pie, who in [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 E2 Elements of Harmony|"Elements of Harmony"]] sang "Giggle at the Ghostly" about not needing to be scared and had [[Ocular Gushers]] at Luna's redemption, should suddenly scream in terror every time Luna shows up. But it makes sense when {{spoiler|we learn Pinkie Pie is just ''pretending'' to be scared because it's fun}}.
Line 202:
The art team had some fun on this episode when designing costumes for everypony. Even the background ponies get some nifty outfits.
* [[Adventurer Outfit]]: [[All There in the Script|Berry Punch]] is sometimes shown wearing this costume, randomly switching (often in mere seconds) to a [[Bedsheet Ghost]] costume. (There are even a couple of times where [[You All Look Familiar|two of her are shown at once]], each wearing a different costume.) We find out [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
* [[Bedsheet Ghost]]: [[All There in the Script|Berry Punch]] is sometimes shown wearing this costume, randomly switching (often in mere seconds) to an [[Adventurer Outfit]] costume. (There are even a couple of times where [[You All Look Familiar|two of her are shown at once]], each wearing a different costume.)
* [[Bride of Frankenstein]]: Apple Bloom's costume.
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: [[All There in the Script|Berry Punch]] is dressed in a costume very much resembling that of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
* [[Epic Flail]]: [[All There in the Script|Sea Swirl]] is dressed up as a knight with one of these as her tail.
* [[Everything's Better with Chickens]]: No, not [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Memes|Scootaloo]] (she's wearing a wolf costume), but Pinkie Pie's costume.
