Season 5 episode discussion (Stream & episode links in first post)

@atalarikt
 
I just need to watch The Best Night Ever to finish Season 1. i am always trying to get around to do so.

@EHAN  
Fluttershy (in addition to being somewhat shy), is also a hippie. An animal-loving, tree-hugging, tea-sipping hippie. And a bottle of rage- one only needs to flip her switch and release the bitch.

So I guess that explains why Pinkie is such a foodie….years of rock soup would make all other food better in comparison. XD

-No mention or reveal on the stae of Apple parents
 
nooooooooooooooooooooo
 
We’re gonna have to wait another hiatus before we can get some closure and possible character growth for Applejack at this rate
 
This was thought to be THE episode for it, we’ve had curveballs a plenty in this season, and the set-up was just as close you could get to it.
 
AUGH

Did we get a little bit more about Spike and Twilight’s relationship?

@Background Pony #2415  
They celebrated holidays together.

Did anyone else want to smack Limestone at certain points? Seriously, even if the whole thing with that boulder was so important to them, there was no need to be such a jerk about it.
 
Other than that, it was a pretty decent episode.

I’m so fucking salty Marble Pie wasn’t Octavia. Remember that theory? That was a cool theory, I don’t get why everyone else fucking abandoned it.

@Jarkes  
Decent? It was more than decent.

@Jarkes  
I kinda hated her period by the end of the show.

@Hugobertington.Esq  
Dude, they already mentioned the parents in “Crusaders of the Lost Mark”
 
They’re no longer here, ergo dead.

So, chances of the egg hatching and having a giant dragon terrorize Equestria?

@Background Pony #2415  
I’m gonna say low.

Fuck it, let’s just say Octavia is the real Marble Pie, but after she ran away from home Igneous pulled a Venom Snake on a farmhand.

@MrXemnas1992
 
We need something to come of that man
 
Something that relates to AJ’s character and behaviour dude
 
We’re running empty-bingo on any development threads for her as is
 
The writers gotta take the plunge

Does anyone notice Marble Pie’s reminiscence to season 1 Fluttershy?

@SeraphimDawn  
Literally everyone.

@SeraphimDawn  
I’d go so far as pre-season 1 Fluttershy.
 
Yeah, Marble is that timid.

@Jarkes  
Not really. yes she was overprotective but I got the feeling she’s kinda angry all the time.

@PonyPon
 
@Background Pony #870E  
Fluttershy maybe still quiet and scared of certain things. But she is not as timid as she was back in her introduction. She doesn’t get startled as easily anymore. All and all, functions like a regular pony.

@SeraphimDawn  
if a very paranoid one, as next episode will show.

@Dr Outback  
When she has to carry the burden of overlooking the entire farm, yeah.

But yeah, definitely shipping MarbleMac, don’t care if they might possibly be related, it’s probably so distant that it won’t even matter anymore

Anyone remember that annoying Season 1-2 theory that Pinkie Pie completely made up her rock farm backstory?

@MrXemnas1992  
Nothing but a memory since Magic Duel.
