3	As Twilight gets ready for an evening with Timber at the museum, Fluttershy gives her a jar of insects to take with her "just in case." All the exhibits Twilight wants to see are either gone or closed, the sky is too overcast for stargazing, and she and Timber burn their tongues on the hot cocoa she brought along. Twilight apologizes for the bad night, saying that she just wanted to impress Timber. He consoles her and shows off some astronomy knowledge he studied up on in his own attempt to impress her. At that moment, Fluttershy's insects escape their jar and fly off, glowing brightly and lighting up the sky for the two.

10	* ChekhovsGun: Fluttershy's jar of insects, which turn out to be fireflies when Twilight accidentally sets them loose.
11	* DontExplainTheJoke: After Twilight attempts to make a pun, Timber commenting on it leads to a very dorky bout of forced laughter.

13	'''Timber:''' Hehehe... on account of the gravitational pull?\
14	''[beat]''\
15	'''Twilight:''' ''[sounding fake]'' AHAHAHAHA... [=AhAhaaahaahaa=]... ha...
16	* FacePalm: Twilight facepalms after her bad pun and awkward laughing.
17	* GeekyTurnOn: Twilight wanted to impress Timber with her schedule for the museum events and Timber wanted to impress Twilight by pointing out constellations.
18	* HandBehindHead: Timber Spruce does the gesture while admitting he was hoping to impress Twilight with his astronomic knowledge.
19	* NotADate: While Twilight and Timber's day out is ''obviously'' intended to be a date, Twilight only refers to it as "hanging out".
20	* ShipTease: The short establishes Twilight and Timber have continued their friendship beyond ''Legend of Everfree'' and are still interested in each other romantically, even if this was NotADate.
