As Twilight Sparkle dives out of the way of falling debris, Princess Celestia enters to survey the damage. The scene when Discord welcomes the Mane Six back from their mission reappears in Memnagerie.Īfter a short recap of Part 1, the episode continues with Nightmare Moon's menacing, echoing laughter, and she begins destroying the throne room with her magic.
