She never said WHAT line. She might have been meaning the "Well played Fluttershy, well played." Which was a pretty epic delivery and she mentioned it was how De Lancie said it, not the what, that was perfect, which this was.

I have a hard time thinking she would have expected that line to "make the internet explode."

Just realized I can predict the exact time some #bronies will lose their minds this Saturday.

Weird Al will be an alicorn.

@seraph: I imagine the the "Friendship is magic" line was the one she was going for, since it's basically Discord eating his own words from Return of Harmony.

Why do people think her tweet is about the Weird Al episode?

Because they're idiots who fanboyed so hard that they forgot the schedule.

[up][up] Probably because that was the leaked clip, rather than one from this weeks' episode.

I dunno, it kind of implies from the synopsis it'll be a lot more tied to the actual games. Though it could easily just be like, setup and training.

If that is the case though, they'll have to show the games. Maybe make them a backdrop for the season finale?

Would the qualifying round be considered part of the actual games?

I suppose it could deal with her trying to decide which team to compete on before the actual games.

The expanded synopsis says exactly that, so...

edit. Unrelated, but Hasbro quality toys are always fun.

@storyyeller: I'm going to put this in spoilers because I don't know if it's safe to mention something like this from the clip, but I have an answer to whether or not Cheese Sandwich is an alicorn. He's not, he's an Earth pony, you can tell in the clip after he takes his cape and hat off.

About Rainbow Dash's birthday, that also means that the day she came to Ponyville was on her birthday, if the two milestones share the same date. Given what Pinkie did for Twilight when she arrived in the pilot, I bet Rainbow Dash had her first Ponyville birthday party before the day was over.

Also, given the date the episode airs, does that mean Rainbow Dash's birthday is officially February 1? I remember that Pinkie's birthday was figured out by a similar method, but the two episodes that mentioned her birthday would come up with different answers (Party of One and A Friend in Deed).

I remember when Weird Al was completely unknown outside of people (like me) who listened to the Dr. Demento radio show. Al was recording songs in his bedroom, just him and his accordion, and sending 39 cent cassettes in to Dr. Demento.
