Description

“Letters to Celestia” is a series that takes place in an alternate universe where the ponies never stopped writing friendship reports to Princess Celestia. I always liked the letters as a staple of the series, and while I’m fine with the fact that the show has outgrown them, I think there is some comedic potential to be had with them based on more modern episodes.
 
Can someone tell me what the actual moral in Marks for Effort was? I honestly don’t remember.
