That Posey gag really got me; also nice to see her be helpful in the end.

This was a big adventure for such a little episode. The real question is of course how Sunny and her friends ended up on that blanket, but curiously foreseen events and circumstances like that are of course a rich Equestrian tradition. :gotcha:

Also, I laughed at the "Just Prance" gag.

Ah, I guess it was a typo in the title of the episode after all; it previously was called "Startscout Code"

That was really nice! I didn't expect more stuff with Sunny's father. Though I unfortunately don't think we'll get an explanation for how they're on that cloth; also, continuity error with foal Sunny having rainbow hair.

Also, confirmation that Zephyr Heights existed at least for centuries, assuming Haven wasn't exaggerating.

Suddenly I'm reminded of people splitting hairs over Twilight Sparkle using the word "hundreds" in Winter Wrap Up (when describing the earth pony way of ending winter) and taking that as evidence that Granny Smith is older than dirt, on account of her claiming she was there at Ponyville's founding in Family Appreciation Day. :gotcha:

Did episode 25 get lost in the mail, or did Cloudpuff eat it? :ponder:

The cartoon that exists to sell toys is doing an episode about producing video content that exists to sell cosmetics. We may have reached a new level of meta here. :-I

I haven't been able to keep up, but I've really been loving this show! It's not perfect, but its actually really cute and charming for what it is.

Wow, they really go right in assuming you've watched all of Make Your Mark so far. We get not just Sparky, but also Misty and Opaline in this short. That said, I think you could get by just having watched the first new Make Your Mark episode before watching this.

I think this right here shows a night and day difference between Tell Your Tale and Make Your Mark. The latter also had an episode where they look for Sparky after he disappears, but this was able to pack in more gags in a shorter time and didn't drag at all.

Sunny drawing away Izzy with keys was great. Also loved Pipp just shaking Jazz and groaning. Misty was pretty fun here too.

I notice that Opaline specifically refers to herself as a "Fire Alicorn". Of course, we did see her get stronger with dragon fire in Make Your Mark, but this suggests a much stronger connection.
