==Synopsis==
 
==Story==
===Part 1===
Well-studied but largely unsocial {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}} reads about [[Nightmare Moon]], who was prophesized to return after a thousand years of banishment. Twilight, realizing that the thousandth anniversary of the banishment would be tomorrow, informs her mentor {{FIM|Princess Celestia}}. Celestia instead sends Twilight to [[Ponyville]], tasking her with supervising the [[Summer Sun Celebration]] and making some friends.

* The way Twilight and Spike both interacted with events would set up their dynamic, such as him sharing a laugh with Rainbow Dash, falling for Rarity, or striking up a conversation with Fluttershy. However, some of these aspects of his characterization would never truly be followed up on, such as his unique dynamic with Fluttershy or his impish relationship with Rainbow Dash.
** Speaking of [[early installment weirdness]], Spike has a few examples in this catchphrase, "[[Holy Guacamole!]]", which has only been muttered twice in the entire series, here and in "[[Feeling Pinkie Keen]]", and his running gag of mispronouncing long words like...impossible. No wonder early fanfiction depicted Spike as a bumbling moron.
* The three [[Cutie Mark Crusaders]] are shown cowering together when Nightmare Moon appears, despite the fact that they had never met before "[[Call of the Cutie]]." A layout artist (going by the name "Nayuki" on the ''Allspark'' forum) took responsibility for this error.
::Story time. When I get a scene, it comes with the storyboard, audio and the character/bg files needed. On this particular scene, the storyboard clearly had the CMC drawn there, but the characters sent to me weren't them. I assumed I was just sent the wrong characters and matched the storyboard. I didn't realize until later that I was sent different characters because of the events of the 'Call of the Cutie' episode later in the season. Either way, the scene was approved and ended up playing out as fun foreshadowing for our adventurous trio.<ref>[https://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/76678-the-my-little-pony-thread-by-the-allsparkle/page-240 ''Allspark'' forums, "The My Little Pony Thread: By the Allsparkle!", post #4783, July 28 2011.]</ref>
