My Little Pony: Friendship is Overpowered (Season 3)

S03E12 Games Ponies Play

Twilight and her friends waited on the train station for the Equestria Games inspector to arrive, anxious to spot her and keep her busy until Rarity's complicated preparations to Princess Cadance's hair could be completed.

"There she is!" Rainbow shouted, pointing out a pony with the floral print luggage they were all looking for.

Twilight held her back. "Hold on. Floral print luggage isn't that uncommon. Let's wait for a moment and see if she's the only one."

A few moments later, Twilight's caution was borne out as yet another pony with floral print luggage stepped off the train.

Satisfied, Twilight approached the new mare and asked her, "Are you the inspector for the Equestria games, perhaps?"

She nodded. "Indeed I am. I hope you're prepared."

And that's how you solve the problem quickly: checking to see whether the pony walking out of the train is actually the game inspector rather than jumping into conclusions.

[StevieBond]

Well Peachbottom doesn't get her tour of the Crystal Empire, but it saves a lot of embarrassment for the Mane Six.

So the finale is up next, I only have a few guesses on how that will go down.

It makes so much sense!

6361148
To be honest, that one was hard to subvert because Twi was already pretty on top of things. I hope I did it okay.

[Hakar]

Finally this fanfic has reached best pony.

[Kersey475]

Is it just me, or are most of the problems on this show caused by poor communication?

[Stahl]

with Floral print luggage stepped off the train.

Why is that capitalized? Are you sure you don't need an editor/proofreader?

[Awesomo3000]

And thus we successfully avoid one of the funniest but DUMBEST episodes on the show.

[StevieBond]

6361169 You sure did good.

[FanOfMostEverything]

I'd be surprised that they managed to win over Harshwhinny, but this is the overpowered Mane Six we're talking about. Their professionalism is as OP as everything else about them.

6361223
Harshwhinny?

6361226
A lot of them are.
Then again, a lot of the problems in real life are also caused by poor communication.

6361234
Of course.

6361251
That was entirely intentional. And now I'm going back and intentionally fixing it.

6361301
You're tellin' me! Really? The only way they had to identify the inspector was her luggage?

6361325
Ah, good. ^.^

6361332
They convinced her to give the games to the Crystal Empire Ponyville within the first 10 seconds.

[Neko Majin C]

And of course Rarity had no problem fixing up Cadance's mane in the traditional Crystal Empire style. She had it finished before Twilight met up with Harshwhinny and was able to join her friends in perfectly pulling off the Welcome Cheer.

~KBO.

[Awesomo3000]

6361459 IKR?

"Excuse me, sir, you've got to help us find Ms Harshwhinney the games inspector! It's our responsibility that we bring her to Princess Cadance and we can't afford to make a mistake!"

"Well what does she look like?"

"Uhhhhhhhhhh... weeeeell... she... has flower luggage."

"...'Kaaaay, but what does she look like?"

"Uhhhhhhhhhh..."

[ocalhoun]

6361468
Um, yeah. That too!

[Stahl]

6361459 Mhmm

[Hakar]

6361459

Yes, Harshwhinny.

[blazikenking]

The easiest thing to do would have been to hold up a sign for the inspector to come to.

[Jake Witt]

They should have a sign that says:

Rubber-face, stuck-up, games judge.
