** The third attempt has the potion diluted with water so the transformation doesn't kick too early. When the potion turns the subject into a "mer-pony", Twilight says a potion making someone part-fish because water was added should be impossible because [[MagicAIsMagicA that isn't how magic works]]. It turns out a Deer switched out the sunflower oil with fish oil because he thought the former smelled terrible. His partner gives him a DopeSlap.

** Two versions of Equestria show up on Earth at the same time: Xlestia's, and Celestia's from the original ''Conversion Bureau'' fic. While their alicorn rulers argue with one another, the barriers surrounding the Equestrias make contact and merge, resuting in one giant barrier and both countries floating into the sky like a giant soap bubble. The captain of a fishing boat that witnessed the event asks if anyone recorded it happening.

[[OhCrap The Equestrian onlookers start backing out of the room because the potion is intended to induce the mindset of the new race of creature, and dragons start growing at a rapid rate if they're overtaken by greed]]. Sure enough, this happens.
