| 2 | * AccidentalAesop: If all else fails, there's always crying. |
| 3 | * FanficFuel: How'd two Earth Ponies produce a unicorn baby and pegasus baby? |
| 4 | * HeartwarmingInHindsight: Pinkie's interactions with the twins and her learning about the responsibility of taking care of them becomes even sweeter when in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS9E26TheLastProblem the distant finale]], she has a foal of her own. |
| 5 | * HilariousInHindsight: Twilight bluntly telling Pinkie that she didn't think she could handle it and offering to help. Come Season 7 where Twilight proves to be an even bigger disaster at babysitting than Pinkie. |
| 6 | * IKnewIt: The brief touch on pony genetics in the ColdOpen confirms the fan theory (backed by comments from Creator/LaurenFaust) that the different ponies can interbreed, and have a child from different type. {{Fanon}} examples of that theory include Berry Punch & Ruby Pinch and the Derpy/Dinky family. |
| 7 | * MisaimedFandom: The "Piggy Dance" song is meant as a jab at repetitive, inane songs from other shows for small children that the showrunners consider themselves above. Most people don't get it and take it at face value, enjoying it and wishing the Cake twins did too. |
| 8 | * {{Squick}}: Mr. Cake changing the twins' diapers. ''With his mouth''. |
| 9 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSong: |
| 10 | ** Several scenes use a riff on [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarela_do_Brasil "Aquarela do Brazil"]], [[OlderThanTheyThink most famously known today]] from the movie ''Film/{{Brazil}}'' [[http://youtu.be/Dvo6ChoKCF4?t=22s]]. |
| 11 | ** Also, Pinkie's "pig song" bears more than a small resemblance to the Chicken Dance. |
| 12 | * TearJerker: Pinkie Pie's crying may be over the top most of the time, but her crying in this episode is particularly emotional and this time played for drama. |
| 13 | * TheWoobie: Pinkie just wanted to spend more time with the twins - who she clearly adores. She learns how stressful it is taking care of them, and she's even resorted to yelling at them before she ultimately bursts into tears at the whole thing. |
