** Rainbow Dash may also have been [[TheCorruption assimilated]], or Nightmare Moon could've simply [[PsychoElectro zapped her]] like she did with the guards a few hours ago, only in that instance, [[NeverSayDie Rainbow would've only liveed a young life.]]

* Had Twilight's friends not arrived when NM destroys the spheres, what would have she'd done with Twilight? Imprison her like Celestia, brainwash her into being her student, or, like what was mentioned with Rainbow earlier, led a young life?]]

** Most likely they would have flown off together to keep her distracted while Nightmare Moon neutralised the elements and/or the remaining five protagonists, which she could have done safely with an essential part of the equation (Dash) dealt with. Once the elements were rendered a non-threat, she could have cancelled the Shadowbolts (who were just magic constructs) much to Dash's surprise and disappointment.

** ''One night a year''. In a nation where she is the ''[[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem uncontested ruler and divinity]]''. Where the population ''[[HundredPercentAdorationRating worships the ground and clouds she walks on]]''. The fact that she opted to screw with hundreds of relatively innocent ponies instead of bearing with it or, say, ''[[TakeAThirdOption simply asking the party planners to spice things up]]'' tells us that Princess Celestia suffers from pretty severe passive-aggressive tendencies, which is FridgeHorror in and of itself. One wonders if she had the Mane Cast do the wedding plans for Princess Cadance because [[WhatTheHellHero someone called her out on this crap]].

*** The point of mentioning the worshiping aspect is to emphasize that she is the ultimate [[ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem secular authority]], [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers the ultimate religious authority]], and [[HundredPercentAdorationRating people just plain like her]]. She does not "have to" attend. She could probably have the bloody thing cancelled, or remove herself from any obligation to attend (or at least, having to greet everyone) and ponies would be tripping over themselves to accommodate her. Instead, she lets her friends ruin things for hundreds of ponies who don't know she has a problem because she doesn't mention a damn thing to anyone except her friends. Basically imagine if you found out the ruler of the land, whom you love, respect, and depend upon holds you in complete contempt, will let her friends run roughshod over you, and wouldn't even tell you she had a problem.

** If you look at the attitudes some of the other Mane Five have towards Pinkie, it can leave you with doubts. Twilight in particular is often very condescending to Pinkie Pie and in "Feeling Pinkie Keen" she sounded almost like she was ''relishing'' the idea of Pinkie being humiliated. Applejack frequently brushes her off, and in "Swarm of the Century" dismisses her as being "A few apples short of a bushel." Fluttershy would later tear her to shreds (along with Rarity) in "Putting Your Hoof Down", and it's not unfeasible to think Rarity might be annoyed with how many horrible things seem to happen to her when Pinkie's around ("Return of Harmony Part 2", "The Last Roundup".) Dash is the only one who seems to genuinely bond with Pinkie over being a fellow prankster, and even she is pretty rude towards her on occasion (but then, at least you can't argue that Pinkie is the only one of Dash's friends to get this treatment). If you think as well that Twilight is the "Hero", Applejack is her "second-in-command", Rainbow Dash is TheLancer, Rarity is TheChick, Fluttershy is TheHeart, and Spike is the TagalongKid, where does that leave poor Pinkie Pie? Is she the ''de facto'' Omega of the group who only manages it because of her positive outlook and SarcasmBlind nature? And, as this episode suggests, is she aware of this or is she one hell of a StepfordSmiler?

* 'Giggle at the Ghostie'. Firstly, 'Just laugh and make them disappear'. Think about it as two separate actions. Think of her dealing with Gilda, she laughed it off in public, if Gilda hadn't left, would Pinkie have 'made her disappear'? Could just be ''Fanfic/{{Cupcakes}}'' paranoia. And also, if laughing works to make her fears disappear works, her fears are hallucinated. More insanity!

*** Also, as the FridgeBrilliance side of this page said, there is a chance anypony using magic to catch her incorrectly or just directing doing it without thinking might have snapped Rarity's spine (or gotten her injured in another way).

** considering that RD was going at near-supersonic speeds aready, one interpretation is that what viewers saw was slowed down, not real-time. Add that to the fact that it's doubtful Celestia is trained in rescuing people falling from midair; then if Celestia noticed before Dash was already heading for them, she probably was staying where she was because she could actually have done more harm than good. Plus, the Wonderbolts were probably there for this kind of situation (the Mane 6 weren't the only non-pegasi there you can see Lyra in the background) and by the time the Wonderbolts were knocked out, any rescue attempt would have been either too low to avoid hitting the ground themselves or wouldn't have reached them in time.

* "Over a Barrel" establishes that pies can be used as weapons are are thrown during combat. In the next episode, "A Bird in the Hoof", Pinkie throws a pie at her own head. Did... did Pinkie just shoot herself in the face? [[CrazyAwesome Yes.]]

* According to Princess Celestia, this years gala is the best they've had. That means that either 1. The grand galloping gala was [[NothingIsScarier worse than a wild animal attack every year for centuries]], or 2. Princess Celestia would rather see the noble class get attacked than watch them socialize.

* Remember that scene where Pinkie Pie [[CrowningMomentOfFunny tastes]] [[StealthPun the]] [[ShoutOut rainbow]]? Well, in the very first episode, we saw Pinkie eat a cupcake covered in hot sauce, and it had no affect on her, so what would've happened if a [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath normal pony besides Pinkie tried some rainbow?]]

*** Having her mane and tail styled like that probably would have killed Rarity.

** That horn's gone through a book. Frog would've been [[MortalKombat finished]].
