Scootertrix the Abridged is an Abridged Series of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic created by Jack Getschman.The series follows the episodic structure of MLP closely, with one ten-minute episode for each episode of the show's first season in its original airing order. However, the overarching plot gradually diverges from that of the canon show, gearing toward a wartime story.Equestria's Mundane Fantastic setting is mostly played straight, which gives the series plenty of ammunition for parody and deconstruction of the show's inconsistencies and fairytale aspects. Like many Abridged Series, it also plays with the Fourth Wall, making it an integral part of the world's workings.As a late contender on the MLP Abridged scene, the series makes itself unique by not parodying just the original show but by also referencing already existing abridged series and subverting common tropes.There was also a Crossover (with another MLP abridged series, Friendship Is for Adults) titled "Scootertrix Is for Adults". This crossover led to the spin-off series Royal Correspondence, which focuses on the Princesses of both universes.After a full season corresponding to the original show's Season One, plus several bonus episodes and a Movie, Scootertrix the Abridged came to a definitive end with Episode 26. But Getschman couldn't stay away from this universe for good, and is now releasing a follow-up series titled Scootertrix the Epilogue, as well as short clips based on the Gen 1 cartoons.You can watch the whole series on YouTube here.

Look Behind You: Allegedly, this is how Nightmare Moon was first defeated. In episode 12, Apple Bloom has to hurriedly distract Miss Cheerilee from the subject of where Sweetie Belle went to school (as her time at the military academy isn't supposed to be public knowledge). It's not very subtle, but it works.

Heroic RRoD: The difference in air pressure between Cloudsdale and the ground is enough to cloud The Bird's mind and make her a lot slower at thinking and reacting to others. As shown in the epilogues, the pressure underwater, in the Seapony Kingdom, screws with her head so severely, it leaves her barely responsive to outside stimuli and only speaking in non-sequiturs. It's bad enough, Fluttershy initially worries The Bird is brain dead.

You Can't Thwart Stage One: Amusingly averted in the short "The Return of Lord Tirek". Tirek's attempted takeover of Equestria lasts about a minute. The mane six confront him before he can absorb any pony magic, and immediately send him back to Hell with the Elements of Harmony.

Tempting Fate: Episode 18: In episode 22, Fluttershy thinks maybe taking care of Celestia's pet bird won't be so bad: At the end of "Trixie the Abridged": In "Two Weeks Later", Spike says he came back to Twilight's library because he needs a low-stress environment. As soon as he he says it, there's a knock at the door—and it's Spike's Arch-Nemesis Celestia, who also wants to spend an extended time at Twilight's place.

Brainwashed and Crazy
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_173909
comment
Episode 25 ends with the Brainwashed and Crazy Pinkie Pie forced to reenact the gruesome murders from an infamous fan-animation. The episode cuts to black just before the first blow can land. The Movie opens with Pinkie Pie in some kind of white void, crying and begging for her friends' forgiveness—clearly implying the murders happened in between episodes, and Pinkie died afterwards. Then it's subverted when The Editor shows up and explains that nothing happened offscreen and nobody died. He just used his Editor Powers to end Episode 25 before anyone got hurt and then transported Pinkie here.

Kafka Komedy: Any plot Princess Celestia's involved with. Celestia's solution to any given problem is some combination of lazy, selfish, and insane, but somehow her plans work out for the good of all Equestria. Anyone (usually Princess Luna) who notices Celestia's craziness and tries to protest, will inevitably get proven wrong and be mocked for doubting the sun princess's infinite wisdom.

Unreliable Narrator: At the end of Episode 2, we find out that it was Celestia who was narrating the Storybook Opening from Episode 1—which raises a lot of doubt as to just how much of it was accurate. Episode 26 finally confirms Celestia's description of events was almost a complete fabrication.

Anti-Humor: In episode 8, Twilight offers to tell Applejack "the ultimate knock-knock joke". What Twi does instead is hype the joke up until AJ can't wait any longer, then tricks AJ into swapping places. The punchline is AJ's realization that she's telling a joke and has no idea how it goes. When Spike joins Pinkie in the hot air balloon, in episode 13.

Never Trust a Trailer: The trailer for The Movie features an atmospheric shot of Sweetie Belle standing in an empty field of grass, which is never seen in the actual movie. According to Getschman, this was due to a misunderstanding of the script for the Friendship is Witchcraft segment, which actually called for a far more mundane still image.

Cruel and Unusual Death: The combined magic of the Elements of Harmony literally melts Nightmare Moon's brain. And it's not a quick death, either; she's conscious for several seconds while this is happening.

Stealth Pun: In episode 13, Applejack tries to slow down The Bird by throwing a beehive at her. It's The Bird and the bees. In "Twilight's Punishment", Twilight is detained by a gang of owls who subject her to 24 hours of horse puns. It's a pun-ishment.

Take Our Word for It: Kevin Bacon shows up in episode 13 (yes, that Kevin Bacon), but he's never once seen on screen or heard speaking, despite somehow winning the Running of the Leaves race. Apparently Kevin Bacon is the master of this sort of thing. In episode 16, his film The Snack is so great that everyone who sees it immediately gushes over how amazing it is. The audience never gets to see the movie or even hear what it's about, because everyone's praise is so vague. When the war starts in episode 18, the fighting is never directly shown. The audience just sees the CMC's command center and hears reports from the front lines. In the ridiculously happy ending of The Movie, Kevin Bacon shows up to hand out snacks, and signed copies of his movie The Snack, to all the orphans. Still off-screen, of course.

Royals Who Actually Do Something: Although Celestia's attitude to ruling can be lax at times, she doesn't shirk the responsibility of running an empire when it becomes important, and takes a proactive approach to protecting Equestria from hostile forces. Luna similarly won't stand by when subjects are in need of help. In Episode 25, both Celestia and Luna are present at the Battle of the North to deal with King Sombra personally.

Ambiguous Situation: At the climax of The Movie, the Mane Six get unexpected help at a crucial moment from three sets of their alternate-universe counterparts: the Mane Six from Camaraderie Is Supernatural and Ultra Fast Pony... plus a third copy of the Mane Six who don't say anything, and give no context clues to their identity. In the episode's commentary track, Jack Getschman confirms the ambiguity was intentional because he wanted viewers to be able to imagine this last Mane Six was from whichever series they preferred.

Adaptational Villainy

Adaptational Villainy: Steven Magnet was harmless in the original series. Here, he's Rarity's arch-nemesis; a later episode confirms that he's tried to kill and eat her multiple times in the past. Trixie gets an upgrade from mere nuisance on the show to Twilight's (supposed) arch-nemesis. And similarly, Derpy is eventually revealed to be the arch-nemesis of The Bird. Little Strongheart was the one buffalo who argued against fighting the ponies. Here, she's reinterpreted as Harper, a changeling infiltrator among the buffalo who argues for going to war with Equestria.

Padding: invoked In the episode commentaries, Getschman admits that some of his early scripts were too short, so he would make something up at the last minute to fill the runtime: In episode 2, he inserted the Previously on… montage. (The original script used the scene in the library as the Cold Open.) In episode 3, he inserted The Editor's Author Filibuster scene.

Failed a Spot Check: In episode 9, Twilight somehow doesn't notice Apple Bloom until she speaks up, despite the fact that Bloom is clearly in the room with them in previous shots. In episode 13, Applejack and The Bird both get "butt stickers" without realizing it, and don't notice them until the race is underway. In episode 16, Pinkie sends everypony else out of the library, then scolds Twilight for discussing The Fourth in front of others who don't already know about it. Then at the end of the conversation, Spike chimes in—apparently he was right there for the whole thing.

Chekhov's Gag
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_22cf50f9
comment
Chekhov's Gag: Spike's discussion of pony Meaningful Names (and how to game the system) in episode 14 initially seems like just a funny conversation. But the concept turns out to be very important later: Granny Smith actually did try to game the system, by naming her daughter General Builder. And this was one factor that made Builder believe the whole family was manipulating her, leading to her running away. "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis" reveals pony names really are magic: Sunset Shimmer is a living nullifier for Celestia's powers, solely because of her name. And Episode 26 reveals Queen Chrysalis gave Sunset her name for precisely this reason. Chrysalis successfully defeats and depowers Celestia by copying Sunset's magic.

Aborted Arc
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_23698fa8
comment
Aborted Arc: Applejack calls The Bird "Sally" in episode 3. Twilight comments on this, but it never gets brought up again. This was supposed to be the start of a Running Gag where AJ constantly got others' names wrong when she wasn't using nicknames. Getschman dropped the joke because he thought it would interfere with some later scenes. Early episodes have an odd gag where others would compliment Rarity on her generosity. Or Rarity would call someone else generous, then a Sting would play while the camera zoomed in on Rarity's face. Then the joke just stops. Getschman doesn't even remember what that running gag was supposed to be leading up to. Despite that, it does make a return in the series finale. Up to episode 14, fourth wall awareness was only associated with villains... and Pinkie Pie. Trixie even called the Fourth a dark, evil power. At the time, this was supposed to foreshadow that Pinkie was Evil All Along. But Getschman decided Pinkie had evolved too much for that twist to work anymore, and wrote her a completely different arc for the rest of the series. The Grand Galloping Gala. The tickets and invitations to the Gala are the main focus of Episode 3, then Twilight buys a dress for the Gala in Episode 14, then... nothing. Episode 26, the one that corresponds to the Gala episode from the original series, doesn't include any footage from that episode. (It would make in-universe sense if the Gala was cancelled on account of the war, but that's never specified.)

Mythology Gag: Twilight casually hums the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic theme tune in episode 4. The first song Pinkie tries to sing in episode 10 is the "Smile" song from "A Friend In Deed", but she gives up almost immediately because of her atrocious singing voice. In episode 1 of Royal Correspondence, Celestia uses the memetic "that's an academy record" line from "Wonderbolts Academy". The special episode "The Bird's Arch-Nemesis" cranks Derpy up to eleven by having her eyes not just derp, but dislodge from their sockets entirely. Thankfully, we don't get to see it. Lord Tirek's creepy "is he friend or is he foe" introduction is quoted directly from the show... at least until he screws up the wording. In Royal Correspondence episode 17, Celestia declares that having zombies as your only followers is about as lame as having rocks and bags of flour as guests at your party. In The Movie, after complaining about how much King Sombra loves to talk, Celestia contemplates the alternative.

Massive Multiplayer Crossover: The Movie. While fleeing from Discord, Pinkie Pie can visit the universes of Ultra Fast Pony, Friendship Is for Adults, Friendship is Witchcraft, Friendship Is Pandering, or Dualshade's My Little Pony The Abridged Series. And while she's deciding which universe to visit, Thrackerzod from The Mentally Advanced Series floats by. Meanwhile in Equestria, the breakdown of reality results in alternate versions of the cast all teleporting into Twilight's library (including ponies from The Mentally Advanced Series, Camaraderie Is Supernatural, Classy Raccoon Productions MLP Abridged, Ultra Fast Pony, Friendship Is For Adults, Friendship Goes Hard, and Bean Quest—and The Wise Owl from Pony Horror Abridged). And for the grand finale, the mane six team up with their counterparts from Camaraderie Is Supernatural and Ultra Fast Pony to blast Discord with multiple copies of the Elements of Harmony.

Perfect Disguise, Terrible Acting: Changeling spies infiltrate Equestria, blending in seamlessly thanks to their natural shapeshifting ability. Some of them, like Kyle and Leslie, are good at acting the part, too — but a large mass of background changelings are completely incompetent. Crowds fill up with "twins and triplets" as multiple changelings copy the appearance of the same pony and then congregate together, and one dope walks around on just two legs in public, forgetting she's supposed to be imitating a quadruped.

Shapeshifter Mode Lock: Weaponized in the series finale. Rarity targets all the changelings in Canterlot and Ponyville—and possibly all of Equestria—with a spell that permanently removes their shapeshifting powers, reverting them to their native black-shelled forms in the process. Even Queen Chrysalis is affected, as is Rarity herself.

Shapeshifter Baggage: Discussed. Changelings have difficulty transforming into anything much larger or smaller than themselves. Rarity can change into a Diamond Dog, but only for a few minutes, and even that is really hard. Harper transforms for several days into a buffalo—but she can only appear as a weird-looking buffalo with pony-like proportions.

Strange Minds Think Alike
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_308a5ff0
comment
Strange Minds Think Alike: The phrase, "We meet again, in the most unusual circumstances..." is apparently a standard part of Arch-Nemesis banter. Steven Magnet says it to Rarity in episode 2, Trixie says it to Twilight in episode 6, Derpy says it to The Bird in "The Bird's Arch-Nemesis", and Sunset Shimmer says it to Celestia in "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis". Episode 8: In all three subplots (Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity in the library; Spike at Donut Joe's bar; and Celestia and Luna in Canterlot), the characters all wind up talking about zombies at exactly the same time. Episode 11 is full of this, with every character giving exactly the same commentary about the vests they're wearing. Naturally, this completely exasperates Twilight. Episode 19 opens with the other ponies telling The Bird to not be a "ninnymuffin". Later on, Rarity (who wasn't present for that conversation) distracts the Diamond Dogs by informing them that Jessica called them ninnymuffins. In episode 24, Princess Celestia and Twilight both independently use the phrase "ripe for making wishes on," to describe the meteor shower. Also in episode 24, Twilight imagines the weirdest name she can think of, and comes up with "King Cocoon". Rarity points out that she used to know a King Cocoon.

Vocal Dissonance: Overall, this applies to nearly every pony in the series; mares have male voices and stallions have female voices. (There are a few exceptions, like Princess Luna and Sweetie Belle.) The crossover episode "Scootertrix is for Adults" implies that this is perfectly natural in the Scootertrix universe.

No Fourth Wall
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_3b4f620a
comment
No Fourth Wall: The series has a strange relationship with the Fourth Wall. Awareness of it is treated as something akin to a special power, and different characters have different levels of success in wielding that power. Pinkie Pie has access to the script, notices text captions, and occasionally argues with the show's editor, at one point even assaulting him (offscreen, during the closing credits). In fact, the fourth wall is so transparent to her that she sometimes breaks it by accident, which causes Twilight no end of confusion. Nightmare Moon is completely aware that she's the main villain of the story; she's just appalled at how shoddily her appearance was foreshadowed. Trixie treats her knowledge of the Fourth Wall like dark magic, using it to supplement her magical abilities. She doesn't seem to have quite the same level of access as Pinkie, however. At one point, Celestia, Luna, and a royal guard casually discuss other MLP Abridged Series. The dragon from "Dragonshy" decides to depart his scene early, knowing that he tends to meet grisly fates in other Abridged Series. Prior to episode 15, Twilight Sparkle appeared to be most in the dark about the Fourth Wall, probably because it's funnier that way. The rest of the Mane Six don't appear to care one way or the other. When Discord finally makes his appearance, he turns out to be the god of the fourth wall, with more power even than Pinkie. He can manipulate reality without visibly altering the script, completely block Pinkie's access to the script, and can deviate even further than others from the plot of the original episodes by incorporating fan animation clips.

Interactive Movie: Scootertrix the Abridged: The Movie is set up like this—a series of short segments, each ending with a choice of which segment to watch next (via the YouTube end cards, and occasionally through the i-cards and text links in the video description). Interestingly, all the story paths converge on the same ending, and every path happens in canon and affects the ending, even the ones you didn't choose—so it's less "Choose Your Own Adventure" and more "Choose which parts of the adventure you want to see". See the Recap page for a guide to navigating the movie.

Noodle Incident
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_3c0a4666
comment
Noodle Incident: In the first episode, Spike tries twice to get Twilight to come downstairs to the party and see what Berry Punch is doing. We never actually find out what it is. It's then brought up again nine episodes later by Charlene, who still fails to mention what happened. In episode 4, when Twilight and Applejack's argument gets heated, Applejack starts rambling about some unseen incident involving The Bird and a catapult. (Presumably, it was something akin to the catapult scene from the original "Applebuck Season".) In episode 15, Twilight turns gray for one scene, and says it's the result of a magical accident. She's too angry at Spike to explain it any further. One scene in episode 16 opens with Rarity midway through explaining what sounds like some kind of Zany Scheme... except that nothing in the episode has even called for such a scheme, let alone the one Rarity is proposing, which involves some bizarre Noodle Implements. Sometime before episode 24, Spike and Berry Punch got into some kind of shenanigans together, which broke Twilight's oven (four times), smashed the bathroom window, used up all the straws in town, and got Ponyville onto the cover of Bad Decisions Monthly.

Skewed Priorities: In episode 4, the cow curse results in all of Ponyville's crops dying. Daisy Wishes and Lily Valley fear that everyone's going to starve to death, while Roseluck complains that her rose bushes died as well. In episode 18, in the initial days of the war, the CMC seem more concerned with their math homework than with the war. Then, when bad news comes in from the front, Apple Bloom's first reaction is to gloat that her arch-nemesis Flash Sentry finally lost a battle.

Curb-Stomp Battle
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_3d699462
comment
Curb-Stomp Battle: Twilight immediately defeats Trixie's clone army, thanks to an anti-clone spell. The battle between the Zebras and the Changelings apparently went this way. The Zebras had difficulty coordinating because their language consists entirely of riddles. In "The Bird's Arch Nemesis", The Bird tries to avoid fighting Derpy, but Derpy keeps attacking her. When The Bird finally does fight back, she leaves Derpy in a battered mess with all her limbs broken. In Episode 21, the battle of the western colonies goes this way. Heck, calling it a "battle" is being generous: the pony militia immediately retreats upon seeing the full buffalo-changeling forces. The episode "The Return of Lord Tirek" is barely over a minute long, because the mane six kill Tirek with the Elements of Harmony in mere seconds.

Unrelated in the Adaptation: Rarity and Sweetie Belle aren't sisters in this version. In fact, they aren't even the same species, since Rarity's a changeling in this version. They still live together and pretend to be sisters in public, as that's the cover story for why Rarity lives in Equestria. Shining Armor (or Stallion Window Maker, as he's known here) is just a random stained-glass window-maker, and not Twilight's brother in this version. He also turns out to be a changeling, though it's not clear if he was a changeling all along, or if there was a pony Window Maker who got captured and replaced.

Keystone Army: Sombra's necromancy spells have No Ontological Inertia, so his zombie army will just collapse if he's killed. Luna successfully pulls this off in The Movie. Celestia and Luna lampshade how lame this is—apparently The Phantom Menace (which also used this trope) is Sombra's favorite movie.

Bittersweet Ending: Episode 14 ends with only a minor consolation for Rarity. Even though "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis" ends with Celestia very happy (and it's heavily implied that she orchestrated the whole thing in the first place), Twilight is sent home unwell and with the disheartening impression that she failed her mission.

Meta Fiction
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_4304666a
comment
Metafiction: All the talk about the Fourth isn't just for metaphysical weirdness, or a realistic approach to the Fourth-Wall Observer trope—it's also there for commentary on the nature of storytelling. When Pinkie Pie says that ponies can rewrite the Script, this reflects Jack Getschman's belief that a well-written story is one driven by the decisions of the characters, even when those characters push the plot in directions the author didn't anticipate. In contrast, Discord represents an author who doesn't believe in his characters' autonomy, who thinks characters can and should change to accommodate the story he wants to tell. He has no idea that ponies can deviate from the Script he wrote for them, and that fundamental misunderstanding leads directly to his downfall.

Loose Canon: The "Celestia and Luna React" videos on the Scootertrix channel feature the versions of Celestia and Luna from this universe—but the intro cards specify that these videos are "not canon" or "debatably canon" or "possibly canon [...] but probably not". In the Friendship Is Pandering crossover segment from The Movie, the FIP locals assume that this crossover can't possibly be canon for their universe, and immediately sink into complete apathy. "Two Weeks Later" implies that the original show is canonically part of the Scootertrix multiverse. For obvious reasons, the original show isn't going to acknowledge Scootertrix any time soon.

Gag Echo: When The Bird talks to The Editor in episode 5, she wonders if the floating text is "the words of some all-powerful, mystic being." Twilight uses the same phrase in episode 16, when she sees Pinkie talking with The Editor. In episode 11, Spike's low opinion of Twilight's winter wear is echoed multiple times throughout the episode. In episode 12, Celestia originally describes her hire-children-as-generals plan as "insane...-ly brilliant", a phrase that is repeated by Rarity in episode 20 (and again by an enemy spy in that same episode), even though she couldn't possibly know that Celestia had said this. In episode 14, Spike speculates about the possibility of exploiting Meaningful Names, and suggests naming a pony Inventor Of The Cure For Pony Pox. In episode 23, Granny Smith wishes she had named her own daughter Curer Of Pony Pox. In episode 15, Celestia claims that if Discord ever escapes, she'll taunt him, "Ha! You gnome! You were my lawn ornament!" In The Movie, she actually says precisely that while Discord is getting petrified by the Elements.

Revealing Continuity Lapse: In Episode 13, Pinkie Pie and Spike notice that various ponies' racing numbers (or "butt stickers" as everyone calls them) are disappearing and reappearing with no explanation between shots. Pinkie (who knows that they all exist inside a cartoon) tries to distract Spike so he doesn't figure out the truth. In Episode 16, Pinkie exploits the fourth wall to create a beneficial continuity error: getting movie tickets for her friends, even though the movie's completely sold out. The downside of this Reality Warper power is that weakening the show's continuity also weakens the seal that's imprisoning Discord.

Gory Discretion Shot: Derpy sustains a number of grisly injuries in "The Bird's Arch-Nemesis", but it all happens while she's in a hole, and is never shown on screen. In The Movie, we never see how Luna dispatches King Sombra, though her comments imply that she beat him to death. Episode 25 ends with the Brainwashed and Crazy Pinkie Pie forced to reenact the gruesome murders from an infamous fan-animation. The episode cuts to black just before the first blow can land. The Movie opens with Pinkie Pie in some kind of white void, crying and begging for her friends' forgiveness—clearly implying the murders happened in between episodes, and Pinkie died afterwards. Then it's subverted when The Editor shows up and explains that nothing happened offscreen and nobody died. He just used his Editor Powers to end Episode 25 before anyone got hurt and then transported Pinkie here.

Then the fighting begins. Bloom's grand strategy for the war falls apart within a week, while the only good news from the front lines is Sentry winning a major victory against the changelings.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_4a3e547f
comment
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: After spending several episodes—and several months of Real Life time—on the front lines, Celestia suddenly returns in episode 22. Her smug "Did you miss me?" is addressed to the audience just as much as to Twilight. While hiding at Donut Joe's sugar bar in The Movie, Spike is certain that mane six will clear up the storm of chaos in ten minutes or so—the length of a normal Scootertrix episode.

Credits Gag
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_4af55b78
comment
Credits Gag: The closing credits for episode 5 are unexpectedly interrupted by the sounds of someone assaulting The Editor; obviously this is Pinkie, who had made a violent threat toward him earlier in the episode. Following the destruction of the Fourth Wall in "Trixie the Abridged", Episode 25 has no credits at all.

comment
Advertised Extra: Celestia's guards Aberforth and The Fourth Steven appear in the remixed opening titles for the Royal Correspondence spin-off, billed just after Celestia and Luna. But, ironically, they show up less in that series than in the main series. Aberforth gets a single non-speaking role in a flashback, and that's all. Starting with episode 11, the Royal Correspondence titles got revamped, removing Aberforth and The Fourth Steven in the process. Ironically, Aberforth gets an actual (if brief) speaking role in episode 17—so his role got bigger after he was dropped from the opening.

Power Copying
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_4c24a9ed
comment
Power Copying: According to Twilight, copying a pony's special ability isn't difficult to achieve with magic. In the series finale, Chrysalis' plan hinges on her being able to gain Sunset Shimmer's power, and Rarity uses the same trick to copy Photo Finish's power to the entire population of Equestria.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: The scripts for the first few episodes were notably shorter than those for later episodes—Getschman explained that he hadn't yet worked out how script pages translated to minutes of screen time. For episode 1, he slowed everything down to get a ten minute runtime, making that episode notably slower-paced than all the others. Then for episodes 2 and 3, he inserted new material at the last minute to make them ten minutes long without changing the pace of the rest of the episode. Early episodes featured more supporting characters whose gender matched their voice actor's. Episode 10 seems to be the point where Getschman started deliberately embracing the Vocal Dissonance and casting female VA's to voice all the stallions.

Unreliable Voiceover: When Fluttershy describes her backstory in episode 23, she says she flew to the surface in an ill-advised act of bravado, where she was attacked by "the morph". As she narrates, the flashback shows she actually just tripped and fell, and a swarm of butterflies saved her.

Painting the Medium: In "Trixie the Abridged", when Trixie accidentally makes a reality-breaking Plot Hole, some visual glitches appear—then a fake Related Videos screen pops up, so it looks like the episode ended. The YouTube thumbnails for episodes after "Trixie the Abridged" have visible cracks running through them, signifying that the Fourth Wall is now well and truly broken. When Discord escapes, ominous messages appear in the video descriptions on YouTube: "I'm here," below Episode 24 and "Don't worry, it will all be over soon..." below Episode 25. The Movie reveals it's actually The Editor, trying to reassure Pinkie and the audience. He leaves more messages below several movie segments, and even gets into an argument with Discord at one point. The chaotic influence in Episode 25 screws up the opening titles so badly that they only play for a few seconds, and then the end credits show up in their place instead. Crossover episodes use the conceit that different YouTube channels correspond to different universes. Any scenes set in the Friendship Is For Adults universe will be in a video on The Kanterlot's channel, and any scenes in the Ultra Fast Pony universe will be hosted on Wacarb's channel, etc., even when this means splitting a single episode's plot across two or more videos. So when the ponies go on a journey that takes them all across YouTube, the viewer has to channel-hop alongside them. And, at one point in The Movie, the ponies leave YouTube entirely—and the viewer has to follow a link to read a comic on DeviantArt to see what happens next.

The Freelance Shame Squad: In episode 10, the palace guards react with overblown awe when Celestia and Luna diss each other. note Using audio from the memetic "Wombo Combo" video, no less. In episode 11, the guards somehow show up in Ponyville and have the same overblown reaction every time somepony unintentionally disses Twilight's winter outfit. For some reason, only Twilight notices them. The guards also make one last appearance in episode 14, reacting to the race.

Synchronous Episodes: The "Scootertrix is for Adults" crossover is actually two episodes, happening simultaneously. The episode on Scootertrix Studio's channel is about three Friendship is for Adults characters exploring the Scootertrix universe; the episode on TheKanterlot's channel is about three Scootertrix characters exploring the Friendship is for Adults universe. Episode 15 of the main series shows Celestia punishing Spike for the hate mail he sent. Episode 3 of Royal Correspondence shows the immediate lead-up to the punishment, and then Luna's reaction to Celestia's incessant cackling afterwards. Episode 18 of the main series and episode 9 of Royal Correspondence both happen during the first week of the war. The main series covers the CMC's actions, while Correspondence shows what Celestia and Luna are doing.

I Am Not Left-Handed: In the opening of episode 26, Twilight has contracted Larsonism (a disease that drains her magic) a second time, and is at a disadvantage against Starlight Glimmer. Then Twilight reveals she still has all of her magic power, because she was simply faking her case of Larsonism. Amusingly, Twi doesn't actually use her magic against Starlight, and just continues arguing with her like before.

The Unreveal: In episode 23, the generals learn all the mane six's backstories. But The Bird shares her story (which apparently included a satisfactory explanation of how she got her name) completely off-screen, so we don't get to hear any of it. In episode 24, Applejack finally tries some of Rarity's baked spaghetti noodles, but we don't get to see them at all. The scene cuts away just before AJ digs in; then when the scene cuts back, she's finished eating and asks for a copy of the recipe.

comment
Ambiguous Syntax: A line in "The Bird in the Hospital" manages to have three separate layers of ambiguity: (1) Fluttershy asks The Bird two questions in quick succession, and The Bird just gives one terse answer. (2.) The Bird may or may not also have Contradictionitis. (3.) We don't know the effects of Contradictionitis, but the name suggests it could be forcing The Bird to say the opposite of what she means. So we can't tell which question she's answering, and don't know if she has a condition, that may or may not be changing her answer beyond her control.

Required Secondary Powers: Episode 16 reveals that pegasi (or at least some) are specifically adapted for the thin atmosphere of high-altitude cloud cities. Getting too close to the ground, where air is thicker, does weird things to their brains. The Bird is a lot smarter in Cloudsdale than she is in Ponyville. Fluttershy, who's scared of everything on the ground, becomes an annoying daredevil in the clouds.

comment
Normally in an Abridged Series, the fact that the characters know they're in a show drives many of the jokes. In this series, it's (mostly) Played for Drama. Pinkie Pie doesn't find it funny that she's a character on a show. Instead, the knowledge that the show could end without warning, due to a copyright takedown or the creators' losing interest, is a constant source of anxiety for her—as are her efforts to prevent other ponies from learning the truth and panicking.

comment
Ninja Prop: The show likes to hide major foreshadowing in out-of-place details that savvy viewers would normally dismiss as just a footage limitation inherent to the Abridged Series format. In Episode 7, the smoke lingers over Bald Mountain even after the dragon leaves—because in the original episode ("Dragonshy") there was no footage of the mountain peak without smoke, right? The lingering smoke was actually King Sombra, traveling to the Crystal Empire in his incorporeal form. In Episode 26, Starlight Glimmer's cutie mark changes from an equal sign to a falling star with no explanation—because the show is pulling footage both from canon Starlight's cult leader episodes and her post-redemption episodes, right? The changed mark is actually the first sign that this is a changeling imposter, not the real Starlight.

Consulting a Convicted Killer: In Episode 26, Luna's baffled at how Chrysalis was able negate Celestia's magic. So she goes to Tartarus to consult the only other person who could counter Celestia like that: Sunset Shimmer. Amusingly, Sunset enjoys Evil Gloating so much (and she's very confident in Chrysalis' victory anyway) that she just gives up all the information Luna wants without asking for any favors in return.

Request for Privacy: Pinkie Pie and Twilight are the only ones aware that they're characters in a cartoon series, and Pinkie doesn't want anyone else finding out. Whenever the two of them need to talk directly about the Fourth Wall, Pinkie will ask everyone else to give her and Twilight some privacy (as in episode 16), or just ask Twilight to step outside with her (as in episode 24).

So Last Season: In Trixie's first two appearances, Twilight bests her easily with her magic. But by "Trixie the Abridged", Trixie's learned much more about manipulating the Fourth, and Twilight's usual magic can't even touch her anymore. Then Pinkie proves to be even better at using the Fourth, and fixes all the damage that Trixie caused. And then the mysterious voice at the end of episode 24 runs circles around Pinkie while negating her usual script-reading powers.

Deflector Shields: King Sombra cast a massive shield spell to protect the Crystal Empire. This is the whole reason Celestia's so calm about dropping a meteor shower on Sombra's zombie army—the shield will prevent any civilian casualties. It's also one of those semi-permeable shields (it blocks energy attacks and solid projectiles, but people can just walk right through it) thus allowing Celestia and Luna to sneak into the city and directly attack Sombra in episode 25.

Forgot About His Powers: The whole plot of episode 21 hinges on Luna forgetting that she could use her Dream Walker powers to meet with foreign leaders without leaving Canterlot, and sending the Elements of Harmony to negotiate in her place. In "Twilight's Punishment", Twilight can almost certainly just teleport away from her captors, but she's apparently too surprised at this situation to think of it.

Crossover Finale
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_661d775e
comment
Crossover Finale: The Movie is a Massive Multiplayer Crossover which manages to provide some degree of closure to a few other abridged series that had been on indefinite hiatus (or outright cancelled) before: Camaraderie Is Supernatural: Pinkie Pie and Doctor Whooves did save Equestria from the alien invaders, though it took them 492 failed attempts. Friendship Is Witchcraft: Sometime after their equivalent of Season 8, Princess Celestia snapped and cast a stasis spell over all Equestria, in a futile attempt to get some peace and quiet. Ultra Fast Pony: The mane six are just as stupid and awful to each other as ever. At the end of their scene, Twilight petulantly declares they're going back on hiatus. (Ironically, UFP came back out of hiatus shortly after The Movie went live.)

In Episode 16, Pinkie exploits the fourth wall to create a beneficial continuity error: getting movie tickets for her friends, even though the movie's completely sold out. The downside of this Reality Warper power is that weakening the show's continuity also weakens the seal that's imprisoning Discord.

One cut to Canterlot later, we get to see what Celestia is actually doing.note Arguing with Luna about who the worst Abridged Series director is. The gag gets a Call-Back in Episode 26. Pinkie Pie says "Maybe everyone at the Castle's been replaced. God knows what's going on when we're not there..." And there's a quick cut showing exactly what's going on.note Chrysalis and Leslie are arguing over the ideal shape for pizza: circular or square.

Militaries Are Useless: Equestria's Army is quite competent in the (mostly offscreen) war against the Crystal and Changeling Empires. But in episode 26, the palace guards grab the Idiot Ball, hard, and somehow allow Chrysalis to escape after she's exposed and surrounded in the middle of Canterlot Castle. This foreshadows that the guards have already been entirely replaced by changelings.

 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_6a7fe2ed
comment
Caught Monologuing: Quite a bit in The Movie. When Discord has Pinkie and Trixie trapped behind a rock, he starts monologuing about his backstory, and takes so long that Pinkie and Trixie can formulate an escape plan and logically figure out Discord's weakness while he's distracted. When the mane six put on the Elements of Harmony and face Discord, Twilight tries to give a dramatic speech—and Discord freezes them all in the middle of it.note For what it's worth, they probably wouldn't have fared any better if they had just attacked without the speech, since that's exactly what the UFP mane six did, and Discord still neutralized them. At the end, everypony learns a valuable lesson: In episode 26, Chrysalis tries to defy this trope. She incapacitates Princess Celestia, then all she has to say is, "I won't prolong your imminent death with a monologue. So... bye!" Ironically this brief pause is still enough time for Princess Luna to swoop in and rescue Celestia from the killing blow.

"What Now?" Ending: Twilight Sparkle's story arc ends this way in the series proper. By the end of episode 26, the Mane Six have split up, Spike has left for the Badlands, and Celestia is recovering on the moon. Applejack is still around, but almost everything else that gave Twilight's life meaning is gone now, leaving her unsure of what to do next. Twilight puts a hopeful spin on it, stating that the library is always getting new books—to imply that she expects to find new work and make new friends. Then the epilogue has Spike and Celestia move into her home while they get back on their feet, giving her some purpose.

In episode 22, when Fluttershy realizes she hasn't been living up to her Element, she uses the same wording Twilight did all the way back in episode 2.

 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_6c3d1777
comment
Magic A Is Magic A: Unusually, the primary spell magic seen in show does not follow this rule, but the Wrong Context Magic known as The Fourth does. "The Fourth" is based on the power to manipulate the script, and therefore has to obey laws of narrative consistency; failing to do so may have dire consequences.

Christmas Episode: The special episode "Snowdrop the Abridged" was initially released under the title "Scootertrix the Abridged: Christmas Special". In spite of the fact the plot had nothing to do with Christmas anyway.

Oblivious Mockery
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_6fca80fd
comment
Oblivious Mockery: In the first episode, Twilight's reaction to the book explaining the backstory is "Who the heck wrote this? A five-year-old?" She never finds out the author was her idol, Princess Celestia. The main Running Gag in episode 11 is that Twilight's friends keep inadvertently insulting her winter clothing decisions, despite none of them having been present to witness them.

Comical Overreacting: The Cutie Mark Crusaders are confounded, dismayed, and slightly terrified by the concept of negative numbers. The mane six all start panicking when Twilight suddenly sprouts wings. And when Princess Luna wonders why growing wings is a bad thing, Celestia acts like that was an incredibly offensive question to ask.

comment
Unseen No More: Flash Sentry has a major presence in episode 18 (many of Apple Bloom's actions are driven by her rivalry with Flash from their Academy days, while Flash scores a major victory against the changelings) without appearing on-screen at all. Flash is also completely absent from "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis", the redub of his canon debut in the original show. (This wasn't completely intentional: Getschman actually wrote a few scenes featuring Flash for this episode, but they had to be cut for time.) We finally get to meet Flash for real in Scootertrix the Epilogue: "Twilight's Date Night".

And the Adventure Continues: The final episode ends with several of the mane cast leaving to go on new adventures: Spike and Rarity travel back to the Badlands, to see how it's changed in their absence. Fluttershy gets bored with life in Ponyville and goes to the Seapony Kingdom to find new thrills. The Bird is reluctant, but Fluttershy talks her into coming along. Pinkie Pie and Trixie go wander Equestria to find other Fourth users and educate them about using their powers responsibly. Defied by Twilight and Applejack, who decide to remain in Ponyville and retire from being the Elements. The epilogue reveals Fluttershy, the Bird, and Spike returned to Equestria two weeks later after their adventures went horribly wrong.

Adaptational Early Appearance: Even though Scootertrix's source material is the first season of Friendship is Magic, characters and locations from later seasons of the original canon are already affecting the plot (many of them from off-screen). King Sombra meddles with Celestia's dreams in episode 8. Queen Chrysalis, the changelings, and the Crystal Empire are discussed in episode 9. Discord, in his petrified form, shows up in episode 15. Flash Sentry wins a major victory for Equestria in episode 18. Lord Tirek tries to invade Equestria in between episodes 22 and 23. Cadance and Shining Armor show up as figures on a stained glass window in episode 3, then appear in person in episode 26. Starlight Glimmer and the rest of her village show up in the cold open of episode 26.

Mugging the Monster: "The Bird's Arch Nemesis" involves Derpy deliberately provoking The Bird, and getting the tar beaten out of her the instant The Bird actually fights back. Revelations about The Bird's backstory in The Movie (that she's a retired Wonderbolt, and she defeated Tirek the first time he invaded) retroactively make it obvious that she was way above Derpy's weight class all along.

Coconut Superpowers: Rarity and other changelings can change forms at will, but are nearly always seen in their pony guises rather than their natural insectoid forms, and are rarely seen actually changing from one form to another. This avoids the need for the editing and visual effects that would otherwise be required. A major plot development in episode 26 results in all the changelings spending a lot more time in their insectoid forms—just before the series ends. Then the continuation, Scootertrix the Epilogue, switches to hand-drawn animation, making it far easier to depict Rarity in her natural form.

Real Life Writes the Plot: The ending to episode 20 was originally going to introduce Queen Chrysalis; however, Jack Getschman fell ill during the production of the episode, delaying its release. During that time, he decided that he wasn't happy with that ending, and moved Chrysalis's reveal to a later episode instead. He also reworked Chrysalis' personality, so when she does make her official debut, she'll be very different from that unused appearance.

(Then taking advantage of his confusion to zap him.) Celestia admits she's used that same tactic against Sombra in the past... and against Discord, and Tirek, and the Smooze, and Chrysalis. In Episode 26, Chrysalis throws this back at Celestia, and actually gets her flustered by acting as though Celestia still has feelings for her.

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: In the Christmas Special, Celestia rattles off a long list of Snowdrop's alleged crimes (though Cumulo Nimbus's internal monologue covers up half of it), ending with, "And she hates puppies! ...Probably." In "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis", Celestia gloats about finding her arch-nemsis, and Luna tries to guess which of them she's referring to:

Cuteness Proximity: In "Pony's Best Friend", Twilight finds Winona so cute, she immediately acquiesces to her requests for food. Or at least, Twilight would, if Applejack weren't there to point out that Winona's already eaten.

Adaptational Nice Guy: Gilda was a jerk to everyone besides Rainbow Dash in the original episode, but here she just asks a lot of questions and eventually leaves in confusion. In the original show, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon were bullies. Here, Lieutenant Tiara and Spooky Spoon are helpful subordinates to the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

Right for the Wrong Reasons: In episode 22, Fluttershy thinks she killed Celestia's pet bird through inaction, and realizes that she's been letting fear hold her back from showing kindness to those who need it. Fluttershy resolves to be braver and kinder—and she never finds out that Celestia's bird is an immortal phoenix.

Your Door Was Open: Twilight's friends will often invite themselves into her house, much to Twilight's annoyance. Sometimes there isn't even a logical explanation for how they got inside. It becomes a Running Gag in episode 16, then gets inverted in episode 20, when Twilight inexplicably appears inside Rarity's house. In The Movie, Spike even admits that random magic might the best explanation for how ponies keep getting into the house without Twilight noticing. In "Two Weeks Later", Twilight confirms there was a leak in the fabric of reality—and she's patched it up, so now everyone has to knock on the door like a civilized person to get in.

Stating the Simple Solution: In Episode 21, Princess Luna needs to negotiate with the buffalo tribes, but she can't leave Canterlot—so she sends the Elements of Harmony in her place. The buffalo Chief wonders why Luna doesn't just talk directly via the dreamscape; at the episode's end, Luna herself wonders the same thing.

Sidetracked by the Analogy: In episode 24, The Bird is in the middle of a conversation, and tries to illustrate her point with a story about a guy named DerpedChaos411. Everyone else wonders why the guy is named DerpedChaos411 ("It was the first name that came to my head"), and this derails into a debate over the relative normalcy and weirdness of various names.

Medium Awareness: It seems that all characters are capable of noticing their medium (for example, the appearance of Paratext), but most don't understand what it is they're seeing, instead mistaking it for some kind of magic. Only characters who know the secrets of "The Fourth", such as Pinkie, are aware of what their medium actually is.

After the opening titles roll (and Glim-Glam disappears into the Inescapable Caves of Doom off-screen), the main plot of the episode involves Princess Celestia officiating a wedding, and the fallout that results. Later, the cold open ends up tying into the main plot, when Queen Chrysalis uses Starlight Glimmer's identity to foment a revolution in Equestria.

Adaptation Drift

comment
Adaptation Drift: The first three episodes follow the plot of the corresponding Friendship Is Magic episodes pretty closely. But subsequent episodes introduce completely different plots from the original show, villains from later seasons show up in the middle of season one, and the series develops an overarching plot about Equestria going to war. The series creators started frankensteining footage from different episodes (and even commissioned completely original animations) to tell the story they wanted—to the extent that the original finale, Episode 26, doesn't include any footage or plot details from "The Best Night Ever", the episode it's allegedly based on. The followup series, Scootertrix the Epilogue, uses completely original animation and doesn't even pretend to be an abridged series anymore.

Travel Montage: In episode 2, the journey through the Everfree Forest is presented as very brief scenes of the ponies overcoming various obstacles, connected by Jump Cuts. (Basically, it's every joke Getschman could think of for the journey, while completely skipping all the non-joke parts in between.) Episode 7 has a more traditional montage: background music playing over scenes of the ponies climbing down the mountain.

Cerebus Retcon: Applejack's insistence that her apples are mangoes. Initially it's just a quirk to cement Twilight as an Only Sane Man. But episode 23 reveals that her mother left home after an argument with Granny Smith and said she would return when there were "no more Apples", so a young Applejack tried to convince herself that they were growing mangoes in the hopes her mother would return. Almost everything about The Bird. Her strange name, her odd response to the word "hello", even her goofy non-answer that she's named The Bird "So that there's no confusion" are all explained in The Movie as a result of her prior career in the Wonderbolts 25th Air Cavalry. She used to be named Rainbow Dash, and "The Bird" was her title when she became squad leader. (The Bird, "So that there's no confusion.") "Hello" was Captain Spitfire's call to attention. And Rainbow Dash sustained brain damage while fighting Tirek, which caused her to believe The Bird was her name. Pinkie Pie's powers over the Fourth. Initially there was no explanation for her powers—she just had them because that was the trend in MLP fan works. Then episode 23 reveals that, when Pinkie was a filly, the magic of the Fourth washed over her in the form of a rainbow-colored shockwave, and that's how she got her powers. Then The Movie reveals that shockwave was caused by the death of Tirek, after having supercharged himself with stolen magic from the Fourth.

Arduous Descent to Terra Firma: Episode 7 opens In Medias Res, with the main six at the top of Bald Mountain, about to confront a dragon. They drive away said dragon before the Cold Open is over. Then their trip back down the mountain takes up the bulk of the episode: what should be a Boring Return Journey instead proves surprisingly annoying, and the ponies get so lost they somehow wind up back at the mountaintop where they started. Eventually Twilight remembers that two of them are pegasi (who can just fly back) and two of them are unicorns (who can just teleport the rest of the party home).

Didn't Think This Through: In episode 2, Pinkie shows the others how to dispel the scary tree faces by laughing at them. She starts to laugh at the last tree... while she's inside its mouth. The others stop Pinkie in time, and she realizes that could have been messy. In episode 10, Twilight goes to Charlene, Ponyville's biggest gossip, to ask if she's heard anything about the location of a biological weapon. Twi explains to Fluttershy that she doesn't want to incite a panic... and then realizes that, if she wanted to stop the news from spreading, then Charlene was the worst pony to confide in. In episode 17, the CMC attempt to capture a cockatrice, but they don't seem to have any strategy beyond wandering the Everfree Forest until they find it. Both Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle call Apple Bloom out on the shortcomings of this plan. In episode 20, Rarity invests capital in Carousel Boutique to expand her business: buying new machinery, hiring a secretary, etc. Then she remembers that ninety percent of ponies don't wear clothes. In Royal Correspondence episode 17, Celestia mentions in passing that she once tried to confuse Queen Chrysalis by kissing her in the middle of a battle. Considering that Chrysalis gains power by feeding on love... "That... was a mistake. Don't kiss Chryssie." In episode 25, King Sombra overwhelms Celestia's mind by sending her the Nightmares of every pony in Equestria. In The Movie, he tries the same attack against Luna—and she's completely unaffected because she already deals with every pony's nightmares every night.

Wham Episode: Episode 14 brings a major reveal regarding one of the main characters, and is distinctly less lighthearted than previous episodes. It's also the first episode (barring the pilot and specials) not to feature a Celestia/Luna scene, and instead focuses entirely on Rarity and her story. In Royal Correspondence episode 9, the war from the main series has repercussions in Canterlot, leading to a major development in Celestia and Luna's relationship, and the potential for Luna to finally earn some more respect. Again, it's distinctly less comedic than prior episodes.

Art Shift
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_912b24c4
comment
Art Shift: Rarity's tale of her childhood in Episode 14 is illustrated with atmospheric stills drawn by Mikhail Josephson. Ditto Celestia's story of the front lines in Episode 22. For Scootertrix the Epilogue, they've switched over to original art by Kingpin (with some contributions from Cyclone 62), with zero clips from the original show. Which pushes Scootertrix out of the realm of Abridged Series and into fan animation.

Major Injury Underreaction: When the Elements of Harmony strike Nightmare Moon, they literally melt her brain. But she mostly complains about the fact that her melted brains are getting in her mouth. "I can taste it!" After her fight with The Bird, Derpy ends up with all her legs broken and her eyes dangling out of their sockets... which she explains calmly and in excruciating detail from offscreen.

To Win Without Fighting: The war with the Changeling Empire doesn't end with a grand battle, but with one leader decisively outmaneuvering the other. Queen Chrysalis has depowered Princess Celestia, and with her network of changeling infiltrators has turned public opinion against both royal sisters. Chrysalis, in the guise of Starlight Glimmer, takes control of the Canterlot Castle and threatens to spark revolts all over Equestria if Luna doesn't surrender the throne to her. Luna's response? Drawing on the mane six's knowledge and connections, she has them create a spell to strip Chrysalis and all changelings of their shapeshifting powers. After Rarity casts it, exposing all of Chrysalis' forces, Luna explains that Equestria's military is already converging on Canterlot, so Chrysalis has no hope of escaping. Luna offers to discuss terms of surrender, and Chrysalis accepts.

Tuckerization: When the mane six talk about "weird names" in episode 24, a few of those names—King Cocoon, Apanx, and Ross Pit: Shark Hunter—come from Scootertrix's Patreon supporters. In "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis", Twilight contracts an illness called "Larsonism" which causes her to sprout wings; this is a reference to writer M A Larson, who wrote the original show episode in which Twilight gains her wings.

The Day the Music Lied: In episode 21, after The Bird, Pinkie, and Spike are captured by the buffalo, Applejack leads the rest of her friends to rescue them. Kick-ass music starts playing as they charge out of Appleloosa—then it stops a second later (with a Record Scratch) when they run into The Bird and the rest, who negotiated their own release off-screen.

Foreshadowing
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: Multiple characters make references to a growing malevolent force in the south throughout the first ten episodes. In episode 7, Pinkie Pie wonders why there's still smoke coming from the mountain after the dragon has left. Most viewers would take it as just a lampshading of the limited animation the series has to work with. Episode 11, however, reveals that this was actually King Sombra in his incorporeal smoke form. Also in episode 7, Fluttershy claims she left Cloudsdale because "I like to live on the edge, man!" which seems absurd, since she's afraid of everything. Episode 16 reveals that Fluttershy really is a fearless daredevil when she's at high altitudes. The thicker atmosphere near the ground affects her brain and is the real reason she's afraid so often. In episode 9, Applejack tells Twilight that Apple Bloom attends a prestigious foreign academy. At the time, this seems like a throwaway gag to explain her English accent; however, in episode 12 we discover that it's a military academy, and that Bloom is actually one of Celestia's top generals. In episode 12, Sweetie Belle wonders about the possibility of an unnamed friend spying on the changelings for the Equestrian military, again. In Episode 14, we discover that Rarity is the friend in question. Also in episode 12, Apple Bloom names her strategy for fighting a war on two fronts the Schlieffenpony Plan, a reference to Germany's World War I strategy, the Schlieffen Plan. The real-life plan failed because the Germans got bogged down on the western front. In episode 18, the pony version also breaks down, because the war with Sombra takes longer than expected. Again in episode 12, Scootaloo's proposed war strategy is a large-scale Defensive Feint Trap, but this gets rejected in favor of Apple Bloom's Schlieffenpony Plan. In episode 18, Flash Sentry pulls off a smaller-scale version of that same trap, with great success. In episode 13, Spike casually mentions that baked spaghetti noodles (a food previously offered by Rarity) are a common dish in the Badlands; a clue that Rarity herself is from the Badlands, as we discover in Episode 14. The Bird briefly mentions her arch-nemesis in Episode 16, but doesn't name her. Her identity is subsequently revealed in the special episode "The Bird's Arch-Nemesis". In episode 20, Photo Finish comments on various ponies' "auras", and specifically mentions "I've never felt anything like it" in response to both Rarity and Fluttershy. Rarity is a known changeling. Photo Finish's reaction is the first clue that the "Fluttershy" in this scene is also a changeling. Throughout the series, Luna repeatedly complains about how things inexplicably always work out for Celestia in spite of her bizarre, irresponsible decision-making habits. Every time, she specifically says that "everything magically works out for her" (or a variant thereof). The exact wording takes on newfound significance in the series finale, as Luna realizes that it really was magic — specifically, a spell of Celestia's that made everything work out in her favor.

comment
Continuity Nod: The Berry Punch Noodle Incident mentioned in the very first episode is brought up again in episode 10. In episode 3, Lemon Hearts randomly name-drops someone named Charlene. In episode 10, we actually meet her. In episode 7, Fluttershy mentions that she's from Cloudsdale, and describes it as "the safest place in the world", a sentiment that she repeats when she revisits Cloudsdale with The Bird in episode 16: In Royal Correspondence, episode 7, "the jingle" doesn't work correctly, and a "new jingle" temporarily takes its place while the old one gets fixed. Luna winds up liking the new jingle better. Fast forward to later in the series, and anytime Luna is left governing Equestria by herself, the new jingle plays over Canterlot Establishing Shots. In the special "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis", Celestia finally gets to engage with a true arch-nemesis, and is clearly enjoying the experience immensely - just as she tried to explain to Luna all the way back in episode 6 when extolling the joys of "arching" to her. (Luna still doesn't agree). In the same special, Celestia also threatens to injure Spike by sending an entire sofa via dragonfire — a possibility that Spike considered back in episode 5. Also, Rarity, Fluttershy, and The Bird make numerous references to the last time Princess Celestia sent them to a parallel universe (back in "Scootertrix Is for Adults"). Princess Celestia explains to Luna that the Elements of Harmony are fantastic for blasting things with their friendship ray, but they are terrible diplomats. Come episode 21, when The Bird, Pinkie, and Spike try to negotiate a peaceful resolution to the Buffalo-Changeling alliance, they fail spectacularly. In "The Bird in the Hospital", Applejack asks the nurse, "Did my sister teach you math?" referencing the CMC's struggles with math in episodes 11 and 18. In "Pony's Best Friend", Twilight asks "this isn't another mango thing, is it?", while investigating a problem in Applejack's orchard.

Dramatically Missing the Point: In "Trixie the Abridged", Trixie actually gets what she's looking for: an admission from Twilight that Trixie is better than her at something. But Trixie remains unsatisfiednote possibly because her new skill—mastery over the Fourth—is something she can't flaunt without destroying the world and vows she'll be back to fight Twilight again.

There's a bonus video where Celestia breaks the fourth wall to announce that Scootertrix has a server on Discord (as in, the chat program). Luna thinks she's talking about Discord (the petrified master of chaos), and Celestia does a terrible job clarifying.

Sarcastic Confession: Celestia drops what sounds like another weird insult at the end of episode 10—but the big reveal in episode 26 retroactively confirms she sincerely meant it. To wit, in episode 10, Luna swallows her pride and asks Celestia to teach her how to pull off her apparent Chessmaster plans. Celestia flatly refuses, and her only reason why is, "I don't give ponies what they want. I give them what they need." Fast forward to episode 26, when Celestia admits she's been using magic to cheat her way through ruling Equestria, and says outright the Luna always was a better leader than her. So, back in episode 10, she genuinely did mean that Luna doesn't need to learn anything about leadership, and certainly not from Celestia.

Almost everything about The Bird. Her strange name, her odd response to the word "hello", even her goofy non-answer that she's named The Bird "So that there's no confusion" are all explained in The Movie as a result of her prior career in the Wonderbolts 25th Air Cavalry. She used to be named Rainbow Dash, and "The Bird" was her title when she became squad leader. (The Bird, "So that there's no confusion.") "Hello" was Captain Spitfire's call to attention. And Rainbow Dash sustained brain damage while fighting Tirek, which caused her to believe The Bird was her name.

Furry Reminder: As a bit of a Black Comedy Running Gag, several characters mention that the only treatment for a broken leg is a bullet to the head. In "Two Weeks Later", Celestia wonders what she'll eat after she gets kicked out of the castle, and Luna has to remind her that she's a horse and can just eat grass off the ground.

In-Joke: Every discussion of The Snack in Episode 16. The ponies who've seen the movie just repeatedly shout "The Snack!" at each other, or discuss the plot as vaguely as possible, and make no effort to explain the movie to anyone who hasn't seen it. They can't even give a straight answer when someone asks what The Snack is about.

Repeat What You Just Said: In episode 26, Luna tries to get Celestia's help while dealing with a nationwide crisis, stating that "everything always somehow magically worked out for you [before]." Celestia tries to get her to repeat this sentence to make her realize the truth: the reason everything "magically" worked out for her in the past was because she cast an actual spell to make it that way. After a few tries, Luna gets the message.

Motive Misidentification: In The Movie, Pinkie initially believes that Discord is trying to eliminate other wielders of The Fourth to prevent them from using their powers to stop him, but eventually realizes that she was wrong - Discord is actually trying to eliminate Element bearers because they have the only weapon that's canonically effective against him.

Dramatic Irony: In Royal Correspondence episode 17, Luna asks her alternate-universe counterpart, "Does your sister kiss her arch-nemeses? Cause mine does." What she doesn't realize is, that version of Celestia actually does want to kiss her arch-nemesis.note Kanterlot's Celestia has a huge, unrequited crush on Twilight Sparkle—the Villain Protagonist of the series who's already tried to overthrow Celestia several times.

Weirdness Censor

comment
Weirdness Censor: Ponies are remarkably good at not noticing inconsistencies and weirdness around them, until some outsider points them out. In episode 5, The Editor inserts text where anypony can see it, and even tells all the guests at Pinkie's party that they're just characters in a cartoon show. Once Pinkie (rather forcefully) convinces The Editor to stop talking to others, everypony else forgets about those weird floating words by the next episode. Spike is the only one who thinks there's something odd about the the disappearing/reappearing "butt stickers" during the Running of the Leaves. Even Twilight isn't immune to this. She's the expert on Equestrian magic, but she never notices how arbitrary and inconsistent it is unless Spike points the details out to her.

Chekhov's Skill: In "Trixie the Abridged", while showing off her mastery of the Fourth to Twilight, Trixie demonstrates the ability to perfectly mimic the appearance of other ponies. Later in The Movie, she uses this ability to fool Discord into believing that she's Pinkie Pie, buying the real Pinkie time to escape and regroup with the Elements of Harmony.

Immediate Sequel: Episode 11 ends with Celestia and Luna talking. Episode 12 begins seconds later, with them continuing the same conversation. "The Bird's Arch Nemesis" leads directly into Episode 20—Fluttershy can be heard boarding the train for SkyCon allowing the changeling spy to take her place in Ponyville. In fact, the sketch from "The Bird's Arch Nemesis" was originally meant as the opening scene for Episode 20—but the episode ran too long, so Getschman chopped off that scene and made it a short instead.

Fantasy Conflict Counterpart: Celestia declares war against the Crystal Empire on one front and and the Changeling Empire on the other—triggering the pony equivalent of World War I, with Equestria standing in for the Central Powers. Apple Bloom's Schlieffenpony Plan is modeled after Germany's Schlieffen Plan, and she paraphrases Prussian Field Marshal Helmuth von Moltke (the elder) at one point. Equestria's loss of Appleloosa matches Germany's loss of their colonies in Africa and Asia during the war. And the Equestrian soldiers even wear pickelhaubes.

Evil Overlooker
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_b5f7b739
comment
Evil Overlooker: The placement of the villains and antagonists on the official poster is pretty interesting. The eyes of Discord, the most powerful foe in the series and the primary threat of The Movie, look down on the rest of the cast from the upper left, playing the trope completely straight. The other big bads, King Sombra and Queen Chrysalis, are in the bottom corners, surprisingly fitting their roles. Sombra turns out as just a Big Bad Wannabe. And although Chrysalis winds up the last villain standing, who comes within a hair's breadth of actually winning, she does so through deceit and subterfuge—not through acting overtly. Meanwhile Trixie is grouped with the mane six, right next to Twilight, foreshadowing that she's not really a villain. Finally, Celestia's placement in the upper right of the poster might be a nod to her being a Villain Protagonist—but the actually heroic Luna is right by her side, so it's possible they were both just placed there to balance the composition.

Interquel: The Bronycon 2018 special "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis" came out after Episode 24, but is set between Episode 22 and "The Return of Lord Tirek". The Royal Correspondence episodes 11, 13, 15, 17, and 19 are also set between earlier episodes. Fortunately, the official Scootertrix playlist has the episodes in the correct chronological order, rather than release order.

Bait-and-Switch Accusation: In the teaser of episode 15, it looks like Twilight has caught Spike in the act of sending hate mail to Celestia... when in fact, she's just annoyed that he keeps using her parchment supplies without asking. This actually turns out to be a double Bait-and-Switch, as Celestia catches him in the act moments later.

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: Scootertrix the Epilogue: "Two Weeks Later", set two weeks after the finale, elaborates on the fate of the characters. Spike found the Badlands hadn't changed enough in his absence, so he returned to Equestria and moved back in with Twilight; Luna deposed Celestia permanently and kicked her out of the castle, forcing her to move in with Twilight as well; Applejack is still happy tending to her farm; Fluttershy and the Bird's move to the Sea Kingdom went horribly wrong and they went back to Ponyville; and Pinkie and Trixie are currently battling Pinkie's arch-nemesis, the original Pinkie Pie.

Adaptational Explanation: In "The Ticket Master", there was no explanation for why Princess Celestia sent only two Gala tickets to Twilight, despite knowing that Twi had six friends who would potentially want to go. In the Scootertrix version of the episode, Celestia plans from the start to send tickets for all the Elements of Harmony—but only manages to send out Twilight's invitation before getting distracted by a conversation with Luna.

The ponies decide to take their chances fighting the buffalo army.

Prophecy Twist
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_bb5126ec
comment
Prophecy Twist: As revealed in episode 23, Granny Smith named her daughter General Builder, in hopes that this would give her a special talent for construction. Builder then gave birth to Apple Bloom, who got sent off to a military academy and became the highest General of Equestria's military. So General Builder built a General, fulfilling her name in a way nopony expected. In "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis", Celestia and Sunset Shimmer both agree that Sunset's name is a prophecy of Celestia's downfall—but Luna blasts Sunset straight to Tartarus before anything of the sort can happen, seemingly breaking the prophecy. Then in episode 26, Chrysalis incapacitates and de-powers Celestia, using a spell she based on Sunset Shimmer's Celestia-negating aura. This leads directly to Luna getting so fed up with Celestia, in the epilogue series she strips Celestia of her rank and throws her out of the castle. So Sunset really does bring about Celestia's downfall, just indirectly.

To punish her terrible crime of making owl puns, the committee subjects Twilight to hours of horse puns.

Irony: As Twilight points out in episode 2, Nightmare Moon's plan to cause eternal night would just turn the entire planet into a barren wasteland. "Kind of like the moon." Applejack is the Element of Honesty, but she's lying to herself about growing apples. Fluttershy left Cloudsdale, the safest and most boring city in Equestria, because she was looking for danger and thrills. There are plenty of each on the ground—but the air screws with her head, so now she's just too scared. Princess Celestia is beloved by her pony citizens, even though she's lazy and callous about their well-being. On the other hand, she is hated by the various species of the Badlands, who blame Celestia for turning their land into a desert. But, as The Bird explains in episode 20, that isn't actually Celestia's fault. In The Movie, the alternate universe ponies who return to help fight Discord, are the ones Twilight thought had abandoned her, because they all neglected to say they were coming back. Applejack from The Mentally Advanced Series is the one pony who did promise to come back and fight—yet she winds up arriving too late to help at all. In Episode 26, the pony protest against the institution of monarchy is actually inspired and led by Queen Chrysalis.

Early episodes have an odd gag where others would compliment Rarity on her generosity. Or Rarity would call someone else generous, then a Sting would play while the camera zoomed in on Rarity's face. Then the joke just stops. Getschman doesn't even remember what that running gag was supposed to be leading up to. Despite that, it does make a return in the series finale.

comment
Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Whatever The Bird's trick is in episode 6, we only get to see the end result of it — although presumably, it's the same trick that her show counterpart pulled in "Boast Busters". Twilight describes the journey up Bald Mountain as involving "hours of climbing, dehydration, and avalanches" — but because the episode opened In Medias Res, we never actually saw any of it. Episode 18 features the war with Changeling and Crystal Empires finally starting, after several episodes of build up. But, we only ever hear CMC talking about it from their command center.

Insane Troll Logic: In episode 4, Applejack goes to crazy lengths to insist she's growing mangoes, not apples. Pinkie, of all ponies, indulges in this in episode 13, when trying to explain the disappearing/reappearing racer stickers:

Applejack completely misinterprets Twilight's reason for visiting her in episode 4. Twi explains that she's discovered an apple brew to neutralize the curse on the town, but Applejack is still firmly in denial about growing apples—she concludes that Twilight's come to sacrifice her.

Self-Deprecation
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_c9597a03
comment
Self-Deprecation: Celestia and Luna both agree that Jack Getschman (the series creator) is the worst Abridged Series director. In fact, this might be the only thing they've ever agreed on. In The Movie, one of the many alternate-universe ponies who winds up in Twilight's library is the Rainbow Dash from Bean Quest—Team Scootertrix's short-lived first attempt at an abridged series. After this Rainbow speaks once, Twilight asks her to never speak again. In the commentary track for episode 2 Jack Getschman jokes that it's no longer necessary to watch episode 1 at all: episode 2's Previously on… montage covers everything that's actually relevant from the first episode, and it's better-paced, to boot.

Shining Armor (or Stallion Window Maker, as he's known here) is just a random stained-glass window-maker, and not Twilight's brother in this version. He also turns out to be a changeling, though it's not clear if he was a changeling all along, or if there was a pony Window Maker who got captured and replaced.

Deus Exit Machina: In Royal Correspondence Episode 10, the Friendship Is For Adults version of Celestia and Luna are visited by a fourth-dimensional being, who's pissed about all the recent travel between different universes. He reluctantly allows Luna to continue being penpals with her Scootertrix counterpart, but threatens dire consequences if anyone interferes with any future events in the other universe. This preemptively explains why Scootertrix Celestia and Luna can't get any help from their FIFA counterparts in the war against Chrysalis and Sombra—and why the FIFA mane six bluntly refuse to help Pinkie and Trixie deal with Discord in The Movie.

Foreign Queasine: "Baked spaghetti noodles", a common dish from the Badlands and Rarity's Trademark Favorite Food.

Surprisingly, when Applejack finally tries the dish, she winds up enjoying it.

Lighter and Softer: In comparison with other MLP Abridged Series, especially the more popular ones. Other series get a lot of humor out of reinterpreting the mane six as sociopaths, and/or turning Equestria into a technicolor evil empire. Here, the mane six are flawed but still clearly trying to do the right thing, and Equestria is beset by external dangers but still worth defending.

Cassandra Truth: In episode 20, the changeling spy Kyle learns the true identities of Celestia's top generals. But his boss Leslie rejects this outright, refusing to believe Celestia's crazy enough to let three children manage her entire military. In episode 26, Fluttershy announces she's going to move to the seapony kingdom. Applejack and The Bird immediately point out why this is a bad idea, but Fluttershy brushes them off and even badgers The Bird into coming along with her. Sure enough, the "Two Weeks Later" epilogue sees them return to Ponyville; their trip was an utter disaster for exactly the reasons predicted.

Magical Profanity Filter: the show's Editor is a recurring character, and mostly uses his editing powers to keep the ratings low. Usually he does this by ending the scene mid-curse, so the characters don't even notice they're being censored. But if the characters cuss enough that he can't edit around that, he will just bleep them out—and they definitely notice then.

Everybody Hates Mathematics: Exaggerated. None of the schoolfoals are able to fathom even the most basic arithmetic.

Vitriolic Best Buds: There's some antipathy between Generals Bloom and Loo, whose different views on fighting the war put them at odds; Apple Bloom wants to win in the most practical way possible, while Scootaloo just wants to make the enemy suffer.

…But He Sounds Handsome

comment
…But He Sounds Handsome: In the storybook opening of episode 1, the narrator pauses the action to gush over how awesome Princess Celestia is, and how much power it takes to raise and lower the Sun. Episode 2 reveals that Celestia herself was the narrator of that segment. Meta example in episode 20. Leslie, the changeling who imitates The Bird, is voiced by DoodledPony (creator of [HORSE]). In the comment section below the video, he wrote:

comment
Adaptation Name Change: Rainbow Dash goes by The Bird here. In this version, Little Strongheart is instead a changeling infiltrator named Harper. Applejack's mother is named General Builder rather than Pear Butter. Of course, the script for this reveal was written before "The Perfect Pear" aired. Cadance and Shining Armor are instead Mare Window Maker and Stallion Window Maker, respectively—even before they get married.

Chekhov's Gunman: Before Kevin Bacon's actual "appearance" in the show, a few dialogue references foreshadowed his role as an off-screen ace, loved by nearly everyone. In episode 3, one pony tries to get Twilight's extra Gala ticket by offering, "I can introduce you to Kevin Bacon!" Similarly, during the rabbit stampede in episode 4, one panicking mare shouts "If only Kevin Bacon were here!" Apple Bloom is introduced in episode 9 merely as Applejack's little sister, but turns out to be Celestia's go-to military general in episode 12.

Casual Danger Dialogue: In episode 10, The Bird hears the word "movies" and feels the urge to tell the others about her top three favorite movies... while they're all the middle of disposing of the biological weapon. Twilight tries to argue that it's not a good time for this conversation, but even she gets caught up on commenting on The Bird's choices. In The Movie, as the Wonderbolts fly into battle against Lord Tirek, Llama tries to correct The Bird on the pronunciation of her namenote It's "Yama". The "Ll" makes a "Y" sound. and The Bird keeps Comically Missing the Point.

Changed My Mind, Kid: In The Movie, when the alternate universe ponies wind up in Twilight's library, she tries to convince them to help fight Discord, but the Applejack from The Mentally Advanced Series is the only one who agrees to do so; the rest just go back to their own universes. Then during the climactic fight, the mane six ponies from Camaraderie Is Supernatural and Ultra Fast Pony (plus a third mane six whose identities are deliberately ambiguous) all return, just in time to help with Discord's defeat. Apparently the Pinkie from Camaraderie intended to return with reinforcements all along and simply forgot to tell Twilight before leaving, while the other mane sixes have no explanation for why they changed their minds.

We Need a Distraction: At one point in The Movie, Discord has Pinkie and Trixie cornered. Trixie distracts him so Pinkie can escape—after Pinkie and Trixie both shapeshift into each other. So Discord thinks he's chasing after Pinkie, but he's actually chasing Trixie. Shows up again in the climax. Three versions of the mane six shoot three versions of the Rainbow Death Ray at Discord. He uses his mastery of the Fourth to freeze all of them in place—though holding all of them is clearly a strain for him. Then Celestia shows up, distracting Discord just long enough that his magic slips, and the Elements of Harmony blast him.

comment
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In a meta sense. Fourth Wall manipulation can be used to rewrite reality, but even that can't force a person to act out-of-character. In "Trixie the Abridged", Trixie tries to rewrite The Script to make Twilight say something she'd never say, and the resulting contradiction nearly destroys the entire series. Even Discord can't fundamentally change a person's character or personality. When he rewrites Pinkie to make her kill her friends, it just functions as bodily possession, with the real Pinkie trapped inside her own mind and desperately trying to regain control. And when Sombra makes his We Can Rule Together speech, Discord changes Luna's answer from "No" to "Yes", believing this is enough to push Luna into a Face–Heel Turn. Instead, Luna just pretends to turn heel, and attacks Sombra once his guard is down. In "The Bird in the Hospital", The Bird is suffering from some strange ailment in the hospital when her friends come to see her, which causes her to mangle her usual greeting response:

Comically Inept Healing: The nurse from "The Bird in the Hospital". He mistakes The Bird for an earth pony, reads from the wrong medical file (briefly scaring Fluttershy, Twilight, and Applejack into thinking that The Bird just died), and has no idea if The Bird is going to recover or not (due to either shoddy diagnosis or no clue how statistics work). Add to that a very poorly thought-out joke about The Bird's condition, and it's easy to see why Applejack declares the nurse is worst pony.

Overly Preprepared Gag: Princess Celestia leaves the petrified Discord in her garden—unguarded—solely so that if he escapes, she can mock him: In episode 24, Twilight apparently adopted a pet owl just so she could make owl puns.

Subverted Catch-Phrase
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_edd714c9
comment
Subverted Catchphrase: Rarity's usual line is "Do you wanna buy a dress?", but in episode 11, she's selling vests instead. In the epilogue "Two Weeks Later", Rarity's mom seems like she's offering to make some of Rarity's Trademark Favorite Food, baked spaghetti noodles—but she's offering bratwurst instead. Rarity's a bit confused by this, and Mom realizes she misspoke. She meant to offer some baked spaghetti noodles after all. In "The Bird in the Hospital", instead of her usual Verbal Tic "Hello", The Bird greets the other ponies with "Aloha."

Hugh Mann: In episode 20, some of the changeling spies blend in very well, like Kyle and Leslie. Others don't blend at all: multiple copies of the same pony appear in crowd scenes, and one changeling walks on just two legs while he's in disguise. In episode 21, Harper disguises herself as a buffalo—but owing to Shapeshifter Baggage, she can only transform into a very undersized buffalo. None of the real buffalo are fooled.

Rage Against the Author: Pinkie is not happy about the show's creator intervening in the story, as she's afraid of what will happen if everyone discovers that their world is just a show. At one point she follows through on her rage and beats up The Editor. In The Movie, Pinkie's initially overjoyed that The Editor saved her... then she realizes the implication that The Editor could have rescued her much sooner, and she calls him out for waiting so long just to make the episode more dramatic.

The closest they come to actually doing it is in "The Bird's Arch Nemesis", when Derpy breaks all her limbs. Pinkie Pie says someone should help Derpy, and in reply Mayor Mare asks if anyone has a gun.

Never Found the Body: In the "Find Trixie" segment from The Movie, most of the Wonderbolts squad are lost in the battle against Tirek, and assumed to have been killed by his laser blasts. The very next segment reveals they're still alive, but stranded in the Void Between the Worlds. Trixie uses her Fourth powers to send them home. In Episode 26, Starlight Glimmer runs into the Inescapable Caves of Doom, so Twilight concludes "We won't be seeing her again." Starlight reappears later in the same episode ("I escaped!")—but she's eventually revealed to be Chrysalis in disguise. So the real Starlight is probably still trapped in the Caves. In the episode's commentary track, Jack Getschman says that if they were to make a second season of Scootertrix, Starlight actually would escape from the caves to menace the protagonists again.

Mass Transformation: How Princess Luna triumphs in episode 26. She organizes the mane six and Photo Finish to make a spell that strips every changeling in Canterlot (and possibly all of Equestria) of their power to transform. When Rarity casts it, the spell forcibly de-transforms hundreds of disguised changelings back to their original insectoid appearance.

Series Fauxnale: The Movie certainly has the feel of a Grand Finale, what with being a movie, wrapping up the long-standing arc of Discord's return, crossing over with countless other abridged series, having grander stakes than the rest of the series, and even featuring a speech about friendship from Twilight at the ending. But it does still leave the larger war and the subplot of Queen Chrysalis unresolved—so they can get resolved in episode 26, the actual Grand Finale, giving each character definitive endings to their arcs in the process (albeit endings implying further adventures for over half of them). Then that's followed by Scootertrix the Epilogue, showing what happens to the characters after those endings.

Comically Missing the Point
 Scootertrix the Abridged (Web Video) / int_fbd285b7

Comically Missing the Point: Applejack completely misinterprets Twilight's reason for visiting her in episode 4. Twi explains that she's discovered an apple brew to neutralize the curse on the town, but Applejack is still firmly in denial about growing apples—she concludes that Twilight's come to sacrifice her. In episode 14, when Rarity reveals that she's a changeling, both The Bird and Fluttershy misinterpret it to conclude that Fluttershy is a changeling. Again in episode 14, Twilight gets annoyed that The Bird just walked away during an important conversation: In "Raiders of the Lost Arch Nemesis", when Twilight spontaneously grows wings, Fluttershy's reaction is: In The Movie, Twilight tells all the others in the library that she needs to concentrate so she can research. Rarity (the version from Ultra Fast Pony) points out that the best way to concentrate is to block out distractions—then keeps yammering on and on and on about blocking out distractions, completely unaware that she's become one of those distractions herself. Also in The Movie, The Bird's escalating misunderstanding of how Llama's name should be pronounced. In "The Bird in the Hospital", the nurse mistakes concern over The Bird's condition for criticism of his own pronunciation.

Special Edition Title: For the 2015 Halloween Episode, the usual titles are redone to show the characters in their Nightmare Night costumes. It also replaces Celestia (always the first character to appear in the titles) with Luna, who's the main focus of the episode. For the "Scootertrix is for Adults" crossover episode, the other universe's Pinkie Pie steals Spike's place in the opening titles. Trixie replaces every character in the titles of "Trixie the Abridged". Episode 25's opening titles are so badly corrupted by Discord that they're barely able to play for more than a second.
