I just love every Scootaloo-centric episode. She's very relatable (trying her best despite her own limitations), she has a great dynamic with Rainbow Dash, and usually have heartfelt moments, especially the Scootaloo Fan Club at the end of this episode. She may not be many people's top pick for best CMC, but you've got to admit, she's pretty fly for a small fry.
@Ellie Davies Loves MLP: FIM I assumed you had. I just meant it as another example of when it might be best not to meet your idol (Twilight & Star Swirl).
Scootaloo has always been a daredevil at heart but she's grown up well with people who care about her and her safety. She's a moody preteen right now so yeah, shit gonna be hard for her and RD but RD always being Scoot's number one fan is someone someone like her needs.
When she broke down and told Rainbow Dash that she can't be the best because she can't fly, it really cut deep for a lot of us. She's come to terms with the fact that she may never fly, but wants to fill that void any way she can.
My favorite episode in season 8. I was so thrilled when I heard the news she have returned in this episode, she is one of my favorite characters, and this episode focused on 3 of my favorite characters.
It seems applejack has problems with bananas too, someone please tell AB to stay away from them... Spitfire was at her best here And the washouts are blasting off again! It seems that in equestria, once you get your cutie mark you are legal.
One of my favorite things about RD in this episode, is the constant faces and things showing she cares instead of doing this from her ego. While yes it does also fill her ego, she does truly care about Scoot.
This is a fantastic episode. It's great to see Lightning Dust again. The conflict between Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash is engaging. That stunt near the end is kind of intense.
I just realized something, why is scootaloo acting like she doesn't know who Lighting dust is. She's the one who told Rainbow dash's parents about her.
22:16 "Got to see Lightning Dust again. I'm mad at myself for not remembering her name." Why? It's not like you slept with her or anything! It was just a one-episode stand.
I would like this episode more if there wasn't the very obvious plot hole of Scootaloo knowing about Lighting Dust in the past as she told Rainbow Dash's parents about her
Is it even in proper continuity? Scootaloo recapped RD’s exploits in “Parental Glideance” (even mentioning LD’s name), yet she has no clue they’ve met here?
In season 7 she mentioned LD as a competitor, dash probably spared many details about what happened, to bust her image. Its possible scootsloo thought they did not really interact in the academy.
What’s funny is, then, in the French dub and at least one other dub (I can’t remember off the top of my head), Rolling Thunder was given a male voice, presumably because of that scene.
The Washouts' story about all being former Wonderbolts doesn't hold water in the slightest, considering none of them were ever actual Wonderbolts. Washing out from the academy is not the same as washing out from the actual team, so they're kinda full of crap in a couple of ways.
I really hate how they treated Lightning Dust. They should've done an episode about grudges and whatnot, and how Lightning learns to move past them with the help of a Rainbow who's mostly forgiven and forgotten.
But instead we get an "I'm jealous and think something about you is really wrong and it drives everyone away but I was right all along" episode.
3:55 What is wrong with Applejack, terrorizing others and Applebloom who might stars loving other fruits and berries other than apples and then thinks of punishing them, this show is not very kind and friendly anymore. Just because they are apples, doesn't mean they ONLY have to have APPLES. Applejack is such a dictator.
Applejack: you can't force anypony to be your friend, it doesn't work like that. Me: and you Applejack, can't force any apple family member/relative or anypony to not eat any berry or fruit but only apples, it doesn't work like that.
I’ll never get tired of the Spitfire ranting scene, that is my favorite highlight of the episode.
