This arc is nothing if not an exercise in letting Pinkie Pie be Pinkie Pie and then realizing at the last second: "Wait, that's going to be hard to write, and even harder to screencap and arrange." It's not quite writing myself into a corner, but at the same time, it's pushing boundaries I hadn't quite realized were there before.

Transcript:

Twilight Sparkle: So I wave the ball at Cerberus, and…?
PM: He follows it! Looks like he’s just a big ol’ playful dog at heart.
Twilight Sparkle: It can’t be that easy, can it? He’d make a terrible guard dog.
Fluttershy: We did carefully pacify him and establish that we weren’t his enemies first…
Twilight Sparkle: Heheh, that’s true. Alright, let’s get going.
Pinkie Pie: Woooah! My Pinkie Sense!
Twilight Sparkle: Again? What now?
Pinkie Pie: I don’t know yet! I feel a combo coming on!
SFX: (FLOP)
Pinkie Pie: First one’s an ear flop!
Twilight Sparkle: Are you serious?? ANOTHER big monster attack?!
Pinkie Pie: No, no, that’s what it means on its own, no combo. Starting a combo with ear flop could mean anything from “beautiful rainbow” to “rebirth of an Old One!”
Applejack: Ah, I get it. PM’s splittin’ us. Twilight, you take care of Cerberus. Fluttershy and I will get ready for Round 2.
Fluttershy: Oh… Oh no…
