Trivia / My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic S6 E26 "To Where and Back Again – Part 2"

• Blooper: Discord is missing his backpack in a few shots, and it's back in the next scene.
• Short Run in Peru: The episode debuted in the UK on 7th October 2016, weeks before its US premiere.
• What Could Have Been: A rough animatic included several Deleted Scenes and changes.
  • Thorax shapeshifting into a tree to hide Discord from patrolling changelings.
  • Rather than just lure the changelings off, Discord tried to sneak off with the others but once caught pushed the others away before they could be noticed and fled to draw them off.
  • Trixie broke off a pillar with their rope blocking off the tunnel entrance before being captured, explaining why the changeling didn't pursue the others after their ruse was busted.
  • Thorax gained a generic reformed changeling design rather than the taller, unique one he had in the final product.
  • Chrysalis's Redemption Rejection included noticing Thorax implying that was what led her to reject it.
• Word of God: "To Where and Back Again" is the first season finale to not include a musical number. According to Jim Miller, this is because "there was no room due to the scope of the story."
