* How come Spike never tried to vouch for Sunset when at the beach with the Rainbooms? He shouldn't have been affected by the Memory Stone due to Wallflower only erasing the memories of the Canterlot High students and presumably faculty. Since Spike isn't a student, he'd still have his good memories of Sunset which he could have used to vouch for her.

** He still interacts with her on a daily basis though. I'm sure Wallflower decided to cover all bases in terms of anyone who has interacted with Sunset.

*** Adding on to that, maybe Sunset was 13 when going to the human world in 8th grade. Then she would likely be in 10th grade at latest by the first movie (this movie being at the end of the school year started by the first movie, then being followed by ''Rollercoaster of Friendship'' in summer, ''Spring Breakdown'' in spring break of 11th grade, and ''Holidays Unwrapped'' in December of 12th grade), which fits in with "Driving Miss Shimmer" showing she still hadn't gotten her license at that point (with no indication she took years to get one).

** She's been using the stone for a while, so she must have gotten used to making it do big jobs (maybe she's used it on the school before over something). She aimed one blast at the remaining Humane Six, intending to wipe all their memories at once, so she seems to be able to wipe loads of people in one go.

** Canterlot High may simply just be a grades 6-12 school (which is common in real life) with Sunset's first fall formal picture likely being from 8th grade while her the yearbook showing freshman for Sunset would be the grade after that. It could indicate Sunset was 13 when she initially arrived in the human world and won her first Fall Formal (or Spring Fling, since it's never specified if all three photos are from the Fall Formals), then 14-15 when the photo for freshman year was shown (With Snips and Snails likely being in 6th grade when it was taken and then held back a couple years considering their idiocy), and 15-16 when the first movie happens. The yearbook showing the Humane Five at the freshman fair could have been from grades 6-7 (before Sunset arrives). Possibly the cleanest way of interpreting this.

* When the villain finds the Memory Stone, they know what it is and how to use it due to it being buried with instructions. Three questions: 1. How did the instructions stay intact in all this time? Given they were only buried in soil a few inches deep it should have been exposed to rain damage if nothing else. 2. If the Stone was so dangerous they disposed of it, [[WhatAnIdiot why include it with instructions for using it]]? 3. Given the insertions text and vague illustrations [[https://derpibooru.org/1658295 as shown here]], how would they know what it meant? How was a random human able to read ancient Equestrian writing.

* Why didn't they consider the possibility of their memories being tapered with? That seems like ArbitrarySkepticism given all the magic, including mind-altering ones, they've dealt with before and memories were otherwise intact of.

** The selfie-taking drone seemed afraid of Sunset. So maybe it can effect electronic memories (it kept the recording of Wallflower because she didn't think/know to erase it)?

** Perhaps they simply didn't check in the three days because they were having fun at the beach. And maybe by pure coincidence it happened to be one of those weeks or so where they didn't upload any pictures of Sunset. With Instagram and Snapchat, the stories vanish after twenty four hours and Facebook's algorithm is pretty random, so it's just about possible.
Added DiffLines:
** Perhaps from a dramatic point of view, it gives more weight to Sunset's reunion with Celestia. If she mentions having taken a brief trip back to Equestria where she met Starlight, it dilutes the emotion of the scene.
