| 2 | * FanNickname: "Super Speedy Thingamajeezy" and other variations for the awkwardly long title. |
| 3 | * HoYay: Rainbow Dash breaks into Fluttershy's bedroom before dawn just so they can get cider together. When She rips the blanket away from Fluttershy, the latter covers up her chest and gives a big blush (pointlessly, it must be said). |
| 4 | * {{Narm}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4AUpn-vhYc The Flim-Flam brothers laughing]] during their KickTheDog moment. They laugh again later on, but it sounds nothing like the first time, which makes the first laughs even narmier. |
| 5 | * NauseaFuel: The Flim-Flam Brothers' nasty cider at the end, with whole dirty apple chunks, rocks and sticks floating in it. |
| 6 | * OlderThanTheyThink: A pair of "new" background ponies (one with a wrench for a cutie mark and another whose cutie mark appears to be ''[[Myth/NorseMythology Thor's hammer]]'') have caught the interest of some fans and appear to be on their way to becoming {{Ensemble Darkhorse}}s. They appeared as early as "Applebuck Season", but this might be the first time they've been shown with visible cutie marks. |
| 7 | * StrawmanHasAPoint: The Ponyville citizens were supposed to be proven wrong for supporting Flim and Flam's machine-made cider and dismissive of the Apple's lower volume but higher quality product and methods. But the Apples were established as never being able to produce enough to meet demand while the machine did produce adequate amounts of comparable if not equal quality, failing only due to Flim and Flam grabbing the villain ball as opposed to the method being inferior. It's hard to fault consumers for siding agains a producer unwilling to compromise and meet demand, the quality reasons being moot if they can't produce enough to let them enjoy said quality. |
| 8 | * UnconventionalLearningExperience: |
| 9 | ** You can get an awful lot of Econ 101 out of this episode regarding advertising, supply and demand, quality control, public relations, human... er, equine resources, artificial scarcity, effect of competition on market conditions, disadvantages and obtuseness of a monopoly, and the concept of inferior and normal goods. |
| 10 | ** The episode also touches on the effects of (early) mechanization and industrialisation on pre-industrial professions. |
