* RealityEnsues: An entire episode focused around it. A massive event that's seen as the greatest event of the year that anyone who's anyone will get to go to? You're going to run into a few problems:
** Twilight's desire to spend some quality time with Princess Celestia ends up failing because Celestia is obligated to welcome each and every individual guest to the party, leaving her with no time to talk to her and catch up.
** Applejack's desire to sell Apple Family food at the gala gets snubbed because nearly all of the attendees are stuck-up rich ponies who see eating that sort of food as below them. Prince Blueblood actually has the gall to ''spit it out'' in front of Applejack when he eats some, just because it's "common" food.
** Rainbow Dash gets into the Wonderbolts' VIP area to hang out with them, but finds it impossible to talk to them because the area is so crowded and loud that the Wonderbolts can't hear her talking and are constantly being pulled aside for photos.
** Rarity wants to woo Prince Blueblood, who she sees as the stallion of her dreams. It turns out that he's a stuck-up, arrogant prick who has no idea of how to treat a lady.
** Pinkie Pie sees it as the biggest party in Equestria and wants to have fun, but the event is a formal one where any dancing is going to be slow, rather than high-energy, and the music is all classical.
** Fluttershy wants to go and see all of the animals in the castle garden, but unfortunately the animals are too scared of her and do their best to avoid her, which steadily grates on her until she finally goes nuts.
** And poor Spike wanted to spend the night with his best friends, but with them all busy doing their own things he ends up alone and upset.
