* Chapter 41 starts off with Twilight calling Sunset in the dead of night, waking her up. Her call is to make sure that the Winter Ball [[spoiler:and the subsequent RelationshipUpgrade that Sunset and Twilight went through]] wasn't AllJustADream; Sunset softly assures her that it was all real.

** The chapter ends with a surprise party for Twilight, with Twilight's mom picking up on a few lines between Twilight and Sunset, asking Twilight point blank about what happened at the museum.
