The lesson here is not to mess with Twilight’s secret books.

Jon Baley of Popcorn Junkies and Living in the Stacks joins us this week for a full-on Rarity showdown as Macintosh fights to uphold Rarity’s name while Maud’s got missiles locked and loaded to expose her “true” nature. Turns out, though, that this episode has a lot more to say about Spike than anyone else in the Mane Six, despite Rarity being the comedic foil for the episode. Owlowiscious tries to warn us, but we’re opening the spooky gates and taking away the secret book from Twilight’s library to bring you our review of “Inspiration Manifestation.”
