** First, it's possible that the artstyle just doesn't do their noses justice and the changelings ''do'' have nostrils, just not prominent ones. Second, even without external nostrils, they can still have olfactory organs that work through their mouths.

* Is this another case of just how poor Equestrian communications seem to be? Because even ignoring Kevin the idea that a Changling could be good is considerably less absurd than the idea that Discord could be and despite his initial appearance and his betrayal nobody at the Gala seemed to be half as freaked out as these ponies were by a single Changling.

** We don't know for certain that it would the Elements which are explicitly more powerful than Discord and Love appears to be more of a raw energy, even Changlings are seen wielding it to great effect but the easiest answer is the Crystal Empire is way off the beaten path. In 'Keep Calm but Remember Discord' it's revealed that he has his own chaos dimension that he spends time in when he's not with us and he probably only goes places where there are people to screw with. It's worth remembering we don't have a great idea of how large Chrysalis' anti-magic barrier is, only that it's less than a day's walk from those cliffs. When measured against the entire planet, continent. . .whatever landmass they are on one city that Discord cannot function in and we don't even know when the throne was completed/moved there could be incredibly easy to overlook.

** Trixie explains her problem with Twilight to Starlight in this very episode: she's jealous of Twilight. Twilight has everything Trixie wants: magical power and skill, friends, popularity, fame and respect. So while she's not actively pursuing a plan to get back at Twilight being around Twilight stirs up those feelings and in a moment of weakness she gave into them and took advantage of the situation to beat Twilight at something. It's the same reason she makes passive aggressive comments at Twilight in the season finale. It's a flaw she slowly overcomes as she becomes more secure in her own life and accomplishments.


Added DiffLines:

** From knowing about non-human species that have hands. Tirek had them, so there's at least one race that does. Plus there are probably monkeys and apes around.


Added DiffLines:

** In order to pursue this path Thorax had to abandon the ways of the Hive and leave the hive entirely. As a result of this the other changelings were hostile to his presence and Chrysalis nearly killed him just to set an example. Any Changeling that started down this path likely found themselves exiled and dead before they were able to transform.

* How can the changeling disguised as Twilight, smell a hidden Starlight and Trixie? He and the other changelings in their real forms are noseless, and they don't have nostrils.

* Why does Trixie still want to fulfill her personal vendetta against Twilight in the first place? She fired her from the Alicorn Amulet's influence, and yet she still sees her as a rival that must be beaten at any cost.

*** Dash didn't think they were zombies or something to fight, she thought they were just sick. She was trying to keep the cookies away from the others. If she thought there was actual danger she would have just flown away at the end instead of trying to place herself between the others and the pile of cookies.


Added DiffLines:

** Dash broke into her shop/home, stole her sister's uniform, tampered with her fabrics and equipment, made a big mess with her cake prank and likely ruined a bunch of fabric while doing it plus rarity is going to have to clean up the mess.

** What became of her actual sewing machine(which is certainly vital for her business)? Not to mention the fact that the sewing machine cake breaking probably ruined the fabric she was using. Both might appear to be small potatoes compared to the others, sure, but for a fashionista businessmare DramaQueen, that's gonna hurt.

** It seems to be doing just fine [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS8E5GranniesGoneWild two seasons later]], and is stated to still be running [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyBestGiftEver later that year]]. They've apparently figured it out. Maybe they did a HazyFeelTurn such that they know that they'd do better to not swindle all their guests all of the time but still can't resist partaking in the occasional scam.

* Pinkie has plans for her parents' wedding anniversaries centuries from now, yet she waited until the day of to buy her present for Maud? A bit of advance planning would have solved the episode's conflict before it even happened.
