I found out when Applejack's parents died · 9:56pm Dec 31st, 2019
So, the question has plagued us all, how did Applejacks parents die? I may not know how, but I think I know when.
So, some may at first assume that it happened before Applejack left for Manehatten. But I have a better theory. They died right before the events of Where the Apple Lies.
Let's take a looksy at the evidence.
1. The story of Applejack's cutie mark could have been imagined by the CMC's, so the lack of parents is them filling in the blanks of who would say good bye.
2. Applejack would leave at that important of a time
3. Applejack seems much better at telling the truth during her cutie mark story. Meanwhile, Where the Apple Lies (witch happens after) portrays her as a lier. Was she lying to herself about her parent's death?
