On the outskirts of Ponyville, the Mane Six are preparing a spot to watch a once-in-a-generation dragon migration (except Fluttershy, who still hasn't gotten over her fear of dragons and refuses to join the others). Spike is on hand (in a pink apron) to serve them tea and muffins, and Rainbow Dash can't help but poke fun at him for not being as intimidating as the full-grown dragons. The other girls chime in with their own thoughts on how Spike isn't big, tough and scary like the other dragons, but their remarks only fill Spike with self-doubt.
Line 16:
That night, Spike is still sad and restless from realizing he doesn't know where he came from. Twilight apologetically tells him she never knew where his egg came from, but offers to do research to help him find out his history. But even after going through the entire library, they've come up with nothing; it seems dragons are too reclusive (and scary) for ponies to have learned much about them. When Rainbow Dash and Rarity show up to invite them to breakfast, Twilight accepts, but Spike announces that he's going to undertake a quest to find out who he is -- by ''joining the dragon migration.'' Rarity and Rainbow Dash protest, but Twilight supports Spike's decision and encourages him to tell her everything when he returns. The girls wave Spike off with smiles on their faces, but as soon as he's out of earshot…

'''Twilight Sparkle:''' Of course. }}
Line 43:
* [[Badass Beard]]: Spike acquires one after traveling long and hard to find the dragons' gathering place. [[Subverted Trope|It's a fake beard, probably made with fur borrowed from the ram that carried Spike for a while. And it falls off once Spike finally arrives to the dragon's gathering anyway.]]
* [[Berserk Button]]: Do not hurt Spike, or Rarity will go into full-on hulk mode.

** Also, talking bad about Princess Celestia and burning one of her letters is apparently one for Twilight too. For once, ''Rainbow Dash'' has to hold someone back from doing something rash.
** It's also not a good idea say no to Garble:

* [[Big "What?"]]: Twilight, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash have this reaction when Spike announces he's going to join the dragon migration.
* [[Bindle Stick]]: Used by Spike during his trek.
Line 52:
* [[Blinding Bangs]]: The purple teenage dragon has these.
* [[Bling of War]]: Although not used for combat, the outfit Rarity comes up with to watch the dragon migration could still qualify.
{{quote|
* [[Brick Joke]]: One of the teen dragons calls Spike 'Peewee'... which becomes the name of the last phoenix chick.
* [[Bullying a Dragon]]: Literally and metaphorically.
