The story takes place in an altered universe.
- ...And in the end of the story, we crop back in time to the real universe where the doctor doesn't show up, killing Scootaloo and the two Big JerkAsses end up getting the baby.
Scoots and Rain Catcher are going to get into a lot of trouble when they try to cash those cheques.
- Nearest we can tell, Sandy and Rain Catcher (as well as The Doctor for obvious reasons and presumably Twilight as well) are the only ponies who remember the alternate universe in which Clearwater was killed, and most everything else seems to have reset to how it would have been had this not occurred. And yet Rain Catcher's fat cheque for 1.8 million bits somehow survived the reset. But with the incident that prompted Green Leaves (whoever that is) to write the cheque in the first place expunged from the timeline, what's going to happen when this pony notices (and this is assuming the act of cashing the cheques in the first place manages to get no more reaction from a presumably fairly inattentive bank teller but a raised eyebrow or two) that such an astronomical sum of money has suddenly disappeared? Nopony will remember writing the cheque or remember there being any reason for such a cheque to be written. And when you combine this with the admittedly unconfirmed idea that the author loves making his characters miserable, doesn't it seem possible that Rain Catcher (or worse, Clearwater!) might get brought up on some trumped up forgery charge?
Diamond Tiara will get away with '''EVERYTHING'''.
- There's been a dramatic decrease over the course of this Tumblr as to the comeuppance that DT has received. In her first appearance in a one-panel update, she is halfway through the blackboard for some unclear insult against a pregnant Scootaloo; while C Heerilee admits that DT was asking for it, Scootaloo must still apologise. Then, when she calls Lightning Blitz a "stupid [baby]", Scootaloo hits her... which prompts Diamond Tiara to sabotage Scootaloo's scooter when Scootaloo is trying for her scooting cutie mark, leaving the "slut-flank" as the only CMC without her cutie mark. Scootaloo may have reached her Rage Breaking Point when Diamond Tiara insulted Rumble in the prelude to Twilight & Big Mac's wedding, but I postulate that Can't Get Away with Nuthin' will kick in if Scootaloo lifts a hoof against DT, leaving the teenage mother to get thrown out of the wedding and be labeled a Ponyville pariah.
- Because, you know, everyday problems that every teenage mother has to deal with.
- Also, the mod has admitted that he does not believe in karma, and that Scootaloo was at one point his least favourite Crusader.
- Though recently, it appears that DT might make a Heel–Face Turn. So maybe, she'll at least do something to redeem herself.
The story behind Scoot's father will be revealed.
This is sort of a soap opera after all.
