It took me until the last pass to remember Oh yeah, this was a Mass Effect 2 thing and I've already established Rainbow Dash as a BioWare player (>>2128405), so I can just directly reference Lair of the Shadow Broker._
Which I'm kind of weirdly ashamed of, because I was that guy who went through the entire original trilogy nearly six times to see all the classes, choices, romances, and butterfly effects. You'd think I wouldn't be coy about it.
Transcript:Princess Celestia: Do you know the problem with secret guilds and shadowy leadership? The myths are more valuable than the facts. To the rank and file, "Elusive" wasn't a pony. He was a legend. That makes for some big horseshoes to fill.
Applejack: Fat lot o' good it did him with Isabela and the rest.
Spike: I'll bet the real "Elusive" was pretty frustrating to work for.
Twilight Sparkle: So if you have the secret codes and everything… And you secure the silence of the lieutenants…
Princess Celestia: Let's just say "Elusive" has denounced Blueblood as a crazy imposter. And the Invisible Thief may soon show a gradual change of heart towards the side of good.
Rainbow Dash: You're stealing the whole Thieves Guild away from him?! Going full Shadow Broker?! Heck YES! If that's not awesome revenge, I don't know what is!
Pinkie Pie: I KNEW IT! KNEW IT! CALLED IT! CELESTIA IS ELUSIVE!!!
Fluttershy: How nice for you.
