Pinkie, seeing Luna with a piece of dress in her mouth, leaps to the conclusion that she ate a princess and runs off terrified. Rarity overdoes Luna's outfit so much that she tears it off. In the script, she is still working on her costume when Twilight takes Luna to her to get a makeover and help her look less intimidating. She did feature in the episode's script, but her scene was cut. This is the first episode in season two where one of the main characters is missing, in this case Rarity. Luna has undergone a slight redesign that features a flowing mane similar to Princess Celestia's, as well as having a darker saturation of her coat's main color. This episode marks the first appearance of Princess Luna since Friendship is Magic, part 2, which premiered the same date a year prior.
Rarity was replaced with Golden Harvest in the aired version of this scene. The episode was #1 in the We Heart Ponies Fan Favorite Mare-a-thon, in the leadup to Hearts and Hooves Day.Ī storyboard panel from the episode showing Rarity glaring at Derpy as she empties the barrel.
