* ExtraStrengthMasquerade: Even though there's mention here and there of the man taking precautions, it's amazing that a blue talking pegasus - let alone one that's a main character in one of the most popular television programs in the United States - can live on Earth for ''fifteen years'' and never, '''''ever''''' be seen or noticed by anyone else. The only reason this doesn't happen is because the author didn't want to address the ramifications.
* ForegoneConclusion: From the very moment he finds Rainbow Dash, the man knows that [[spoiler:the other Mane Five will come back for her someday]], and never lets himself or the readers forget this fact.

* HumansAreBastards: [[spoiler: Somewhat anyways. The man is hesitant to even let Dashie watch TV let alone go on the internet at all, worried about the depths humans can sink to and how readily visible it can be. When Celestia and the othe 5 ponies show up, Celestia is surprised and relieved that, not only was Dashie over here for a whopping 15 years, but she wasn't tainted, abused or harmed, and was fortunate enough to be shown the best of humanity. To think what would have happened if he never went back for that box.]]
