--> '''Svengallop:''' You know the drill, deliver or the diva ditches your dippy charity.
--> '''Coloratura:''' So ''that's'' how you've been managing things?
--> '''Svengallop:''' Yeah, so? What's the problem?
--> '''Coloratura:''' The problem is is that you've been using my name to intimidate ponies to get what you want.
--> '''Svengallop:''' But I work incredibly hard for you. I deserve everything I get.
--> '''Coloratura:''' But not because you scare ponies into thinking I won't perform for their charities otherwise. I would ''never'' do that to my fans, which is why you should have known that I would ''never'' cancel the school ponies' contest.

* TakeThat: "The Spectacle" is one to modern pop between the copious amounts of auto-tune, flashy lightning, and tacky dances all played up as StylisticSuck. It is also written in a similar musical style to [[TakeThatAudience many fan-made songs and remixes]] and [[SelfDeprecation much of the music from the Equestria Girls films]].

* RaisedLighterTribute: Many unicorns in the audience (including Rarity) do this by lighting up their horns during "The Magic Inside".

** Countess Coloratura initially performs with a [[MysteriousVeil black veil]] covering her face, a sign that she is in denial of Svengallop's manipulation. She quite literally takes off that veil when directly faced with Svengallop's true colors.

* CaughtOnTape: Svengallop's true nature is magically recorded by Twilight when he continues to pile on heavy demands to Pinkie Pie and threatens again to cancel the contest, which then displayed for Coloratura and everypony else to see.

* EngineeredPublicConfession: Svengallop's second instance of making demands of Pinkie and threatening to cancel the contest is observed by Twilight Sparkle, who then uses a spell to record it and show everyone else. Svengallop, when called out on his behavior and misuse of Coloratura's name, confesses via rant that he does exploit her for his own personal gain right before storming off.

* HardTruthAesop: Some ponies, like [[TheSociopath Svengallop]], won't show remorse for their actions, even when they've been caught red-hoofed. In that same vein, such ponies [[PoisonousFriend aren't healthy to hang around with]], and you have to break ties with them.

* RefrainFromAssuming: When its animatic was released, before the official title was given, "The Magic Inside" was known by fans as "I Am Just a Pony".

* {{GASP}}: A huge one in the ColdOpen. Taken UpToEleven when Pinkie's mane and tail flare up.
