* ThreatenAllToFindOne: "The Hearthswarming Club" has the Young 6 held over after a prank causes a huge mess at the school, and told to clean the common areas where the mess is. Twilight says they'll be held until someone confesses, and she, Spike, and Rainbow Dash call each one individually to ask them about their involvement and/or knowledge of the prank. The students begin to describe their various Hearth's Warming celebrations, but they also begin to fight among themselves, fearful they'll miss their families and celebrations if the guilty party doesn't come forward. Upset at how the fighting doesn't go along with the spirit of the holiday, Gallus, the gryphon, explains that it was him because he has no family to return to and just wanted to spend a bit of time with his friends before they left. Twilight overhears this and thanks him for his confession, then tells him he'll still need to stay over the holiday. The others offer to stay as well so that Gallus won't be alone during the holiday season.

* TheTroublemaker: Pinkie Pie and Discord split the difference on this one.
** Pinkie Pie once thought it a good idea to use a magic pool to make copies of herself to spend more time with her friends. She discovered quickly though that she didn't get the enjoyment of doing those things, and now Ponyville had been overrun with dozens of Pinkie Pies.
** Pinkie Pie's habit of being InnocentlyInsensitive often has her able to exacerbate any social anxiety Fluttershy might be feeling, such as reminding her of the huge crowds before a singing performance.
** Discord has been known to {{troll}} Twilight on her paranoia of him spending time with her friends because "ItAmusedMe", and once, he pretended to be sick when Twilight was trying to spend time with her sister-in-law, Cadence, by having her care for him in his time of need (complete with Musical Number). He does get karmic payback at the end when he becomes sick for real.

* TakeThat: One possible interpretation of a [[Creator/TheHub Hub]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wp5vazXWgec commercial]] which edited together animation from "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies Too Many Pinkie Pies]]" to show Fluttershy and Rarity reacting negatively to the Pinkie Pie duplicate who [[MythologyGag makes the face of a]] [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyG3 Generation 3 My Little Pony]].
** A slightly subtler Take-that in the same episode could be the personalities of the Pinkie clones in general. All of them have had virtually all personality traits stripped away, leaving the most obvious one (Pinkie's desire for fun) which is exaggerated and inflated to the point where it becomes obnoxious and annoying. Sounds like the classic symptoms of Flanderization.
** As noted on the recap page, "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E14SuitedForSuccess Suited for Success]]" is a theoretical 'Take That' to Hasbro when they interfere with the creative process of the writing and animation teams. Particularly blatant in the "Art Of The Dress (Reprise)" lyrics:
--->All we ever want is indecision\\
All we really like is what we know\\
Gotta balance style with adherence\\
Making sure we make a good appearance\\
Even if you simply have to fudge it\\
Make sure that it stays within our budget
** The entire episode "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS7E14FameAndMisfortune Fame and Misfortune]]" can be seen as TakeThat towards negative commentators in the fandom. Probably the most direct instance of this trope in the episode is when a pony exclaims "Twilight was better before she got wings."

''Storge'' is referenced from time to time, often in combination with ''Phileo'', and in particular with regard to Applejack and Rarity's family bonds. ''Agape'' is referred to as an emphasis to ''Phileo'' (eg. the [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E13HearthsWarmingEve Hearth's Warming Eve]] pageant). Even ''Eros'' has been referenced at times; most commonly with Shining Armor and Princess Cadance's wedding, though obviously only indirectly, [[spoiler:such as with Princess Cadance's pregnancy]], and with Spike's crush on Rarity.
