A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

At least Granny's hip is fixed.

Decent episode,a little predictable,but still good.

AJ, you really need to get around to blacklisting those frauds with your family.

So, that was a great ep. Though, let's hope AJ doesn't just toss that bit in with the rest of them and lose it.

So AJ gets her key in the most strangest way: By admiting she lied and get rewarded? Also, I don't get it: Is it so wrong to believe in something if at least it's doin' the job well?

That wasn't too bad. Would've preferred it if Flim and Flam had been run out of town on a rail instead of getting away with it, but other than that I think it worked pretty well.

I was a little skeptical of AJ's initial decision to hide the truth, but I think in the end it made sense because she's so family oriented. Wanting her family to be happy is one of the few things that I think she'd be willing to even consider bending the truth over.

Also, Lyra apparently judges swimming competitions.

[up]Well, if you've been lying in a way that could potentially hurt others (i.e. by making them believe they're healthier than they are, or by taking money from them that they need for other stuff), coming clean about it is the best course of action. Obviously, it's better to not have lied at all, but if you do, there's no point in sticking to it.

And the thing is, the potion didn't do squat. Granny was capable of swimming the whole time, the tonic just hit her with enough of a placebo that she was willing to try again. The only effect it had was purely psychological.

Course Flim and Flam still make it out of town with everyone's money. Oh well.

So, there is just Twilight's key left. That will probably be the last episode of the season.

@King: Up to a point. It's one thing to claim that drinking something can make you an awesome marksman. It's another to directly enter a competition and quite likely kill someone because of it.

@King It wasn't doing the job at all though, it was just fooling people into thinking it was.

@Kix: But it isn't doing it's job well. Yeah it was helpful as a confidence booster, but Granny could have killed herself, and ponies with busted limbs would likely make them worse by trying to use them thinking the tonic made them better.

This means in an alternate timeline Grannie's pushing daisies and the Flim-Flam brothers are in serious bother.

Yeah, there is a limit to how far just letting it be faked will go. Flim Flam pushed past that limit. If they hadn't pushed so hard AJ might not have snapped.

It's true that it gave Granny Smith confidence, but it's less good if that confidence is placed in something that's not trustworthy and may probably get someone killed.

And then Applejack's key accidentally got mixed in with all the other bits and they never opened the chest because she spent her key on an everyday ordinary farm expense.

Though, getting lassoed by her ankle and pulled like that.. can't be good for her hips.

Or maybe it popped them back into place and now she can walk better then ever.

On Flim and Flam getting away, well it works for me, yeah would have preferred them getting run out of town again, but it's likely that would have happened if they hadn't slipped out when they did. It wasn't the townsponies letting them get away, just them knowing when to run.

Threadhop because I'll watch the episode later or something.

So, are we doing Sane Pony Thread Week as an April Fool's prank? Are we going to look for quotes as usual, or just make stuff up?

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...
