It's on page 1, Maud is smiling.

I doubt that will mean anything in this ep, but it could be awesome if it was...

(from page 1 of the thread)

So she's smiling but still looks less (at least outwardly) enthusiastic than the rest. I could see her having the same personality back then.

Are you so sure? Maybe the lesson will be that Pinkie has to accept Maud's personality instead of making her sister out to be someone she isn't.

While I felt Pinkie was mischaracterized and sorta annoying in Filli Vanilli, blind hate threads really aren't cool. Hoping she gets written with nuance tomorrow.

I actually quite doubt she'll change, thought she may show a bit more to her personality as the episode goes on, may be revealed to have a more expressive side in some situations. She might even smile again.

My guess will be its the mane six learning to accept maud for who she is. The moral something like don't let your pre concived expectations of others keep you from liking them for who they are, I mean Pinkie hyped up her sister in that first clip.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Underneath her low-key and Daria-esque exterior, Maude is an otherwise well adjusted pony and Pinkie loves her for who she is. She meant all the things she said when she was bragging on her, it's the others who have the overblown expectations and want her to be something she's not.

I actually wonder how the ep will play out, I imagine Maud or Pinkie one will have A breaking point. My guess is if Maud doesnt lose it, Pinkie will flip her lid seeing her friends make maud do alot of stuff she may not wanna do but is too stoic/polite to say no too. Or Pinks could get mad at them for hogging/trying to change Maud. I hate to say it, but I kinda see the rest of the mane six being jerks in this ep, unintentional, but still jerks.

Not gonna lie, after just the tiny bit we've seen so far, Maud is rock-eting up my Best Pony chart. (It is a rock pun, you see. :maud: )

Seriously, I cannot wait to see this. Hype level: :-D

Well, I gave in and watched the clips. Even though I don't like people/characters with that kind of attitude (I could never watch that Diara show without wanting someone to sew her lips shut), Maud seems like she could be a really interesting character.

Maud is okay, hope she leads off the dark edgy people from luna's fanbase.


My guess is

Maud interacts with BM, Derpy, and lyra bon.

Maud can buck a tree in half

Boulder only moves when you aren't looking at him

Maud only likes books about Rocks and geology, and outsmarts twilight in it

Something I just now considered is that Maud might just be terribly shy. I realized that, like she is in this clip, I sometimes act cold and standoffish when I am dragged into doing something I don't want to do, much like how Pinkie is dragging Maud into meeting the other five. Maybe Maud really is nice around her own family.

If Maud does get emotional near the end I would imagine its because the others took up all her time and she didnt get to hang out with her best sister friend before having to head back to rockturate school or what ever.


:rant: I CANT BELIEVE YOU MADE MAUD CRY!!

:starity: .... I do feel as if we should run now.

:-I Eeyup.

Bingo cards on individual episodes? We did that for S4 in general, but no, not per-episode.

Pinkie's goggles are amazing and that candy stack was hilarious.

Also, was it just me or was that the shortest cold opening ever?
