I just enjoyed that de Lancie spoke rhythmically for it. Helped assuage my fears for his upcoming appearance.

I want to see his pony self in the show

Okay, something I just noticed and now I'm getting kind of giddy because of it. Two shots from two different episodes but are rather similar.

This one is taken from Rarity Takes Manehattan


and this is from Rainbow Falls


Notice anything? Both of the rainbow shimmers appeared when each of their respective ponies displayed their element of harmony. Rarity with generosity and Rainbow Dash with loyalty. Could these be two of the keys to unlock the chest? Only time will tell.

You speak as if it wasn't framed to be as obvious as possible.

Anyway, it seems we get one of these rainbow trinkets in an episode that has numerous similarities.
Not just featuring a character displaying their element, but
1) The character discards their element
2) A secondary character who has walked down the path the character has a revelation concerning what's truly right (Coco working for Suri despite knowing her, er...assholishness, Spitfire choosing winning over her friend and teammate)
3) The mane character helps guide the secondary character down the right path, and the secondary character gives them an item of importance

While we only have 2 trinkets, both episode shared these themes, and the widely anticipated Weird Al episode (Which people are assuming will net Pinkie her trinket) seems to feature a similar structure based solely on it's premise (Somepony outpartying Pinkie, which many assume will feature Pinkie breaking her element to beat Cheese Sandwich and etc etc), so only time will tell.

Basically: How could anyone NOT notice the rainbow flash? The episode focused a good 5 seconds on it. It's hard to not see

I'm just happy that the keys won't all be found in the finale. Can you blame me?

This might be my favourite episode this season! I just had so much fun watching it.

Who knew from the very first two-parter years ago that the Wonderbolts would be actual, developed, recurring characters now? It just goes to show how much world-building there is, from the presence of griffins, to Bulk Biceps to more Derpy.

I love this show!

Well, people can be hypocrites, I guess.

I'm glad that the keys will all be found during the season, but I'm also glad that the stories are managing to be generally self contained. It's episodic in nature while actually continuing a story. It's rather nice.

Bulk Biceps posing that that doofy grin. I laughed out loud so hard

And hopefully Spitfire will remember the same lesson she learned in Wonderbolts Academy this time

Ok hate me for it, but I for am rejoicing at Derpy's prominent return.

I'm cool with it. Her appearance was adorable!
