For some reason I love how Twilight acknowledges that, while RD and AJ are always going to compete between them in anything they are involved, they're still unstoppable if they're working together.
But I felt very bad for pinkie pie in this episode. The same thing kind of happened to me before, instead it wasn’t with a competitive game or anything. But still, I could feel what Pinkie felt, and it really hurt me. And that happens to a lot of people in real life, being left out by their friends.
But Twilight had the same thing done to her by sunburst. Whatever you do to someone always comes back to you, it could be anytime, anywhere. But yet, this scene did show some real life situations.
I really like this episode because it’s the last fun Twilight freak out of the series (obv she stops next episode, and then her one in the finale was more a downer than anything). I also think that, because it’s such a stationary episode (the episode, except for the beginning, never really leaves the location where the Trivia Trot is happening), the animators were allowed to get more experimental with poses and have more fun with faces (the scene where Pinkie is looking down at her growling stomach comes to mind, as does the scene with Twilight freaking out on Pinkie right before the cupcake question). That’s something I always enjoy.
It was certainly a dick move for Twilight to get Pinkie disqualified like that, but it’s understandable with how competitive she got (I see a lot of myself in her, so I could see me doing that if I really got desperate too - though I try to not let myself get that desperate)
What's cool in this game is that just about every question is a reference to a previous episode. Even the Old Ponish word for "reward" can be heard in Uncommon Bond.
The mother of all freakouts! Twilinanas returns. So much shipping this episode, appledash is unstoppable :P. Also, they took revange on derpy for lock8ng them out in episode 100.
A lot of people disliked this episode, but I actually thought it was fun. I dunno whether it was because it was coming on the heels of the last episode, or what, but it just didn't seem that bad, to me.
Sure, Twilight was really out of character and sure, that was pretty low of her to do what she did to Pinkie...but trust me, I'd rather accept her going a little Twily-nanas, than Rainbow Dash being a total c--tbag in the last episode.~ But again, it's a mixed-bag; some like it, some do not.
(edit: yeah, that's what I thought. >:( Gotta watch out for that COPPA)
So you think that Twilight is better than Rainbow when she is a total mess? They are both worth each other and these two are my least favorite mane 6 not without a reason.

To be fair, literally all of the contestants but Sunburst should've had an easy time with the zap apple question, considering they all live in a town that was founded on the zap apple jam business.
12:13 "Omg, Bulk! You better be careful around her." This is why Flutterceps could never work. Fluttershy is too fragile for such a physical relationship.
19:14 This was from that episode where we met Quibble Pants. How dare you forget about their conversation about the hat!? I'm kidding😂 Good job at answering some of the questions though😅

WHAT?! :o 03:10 Twilight would be a great lawyer... 03:35 You and your psychic abilities... :q 05:05 That tune is oddly similar to "Who want's to be a millionaire" ;) 07:22 Lesson -1 ensues :J 10:07 Negative?

"There's a video game called Trivial Pursuit, right?" I know that was probably just a slip of the tongue, but trivial pursuit is a board game, not a video game
This is 9 season and Princess Twilight still behaves like Twilight from season 2, come on Hasbro. Thank you for making me dislike Princess Twilight more.
Twilight's faces in this episode are pure thumbnail material for reactors.
