my opinion.

that was all in Twilight's head (a forced dream/ illusion)  and it will follow in to season 4 

i'm gona follow this up later

As to the Mane Six inequality, I'm expecting Season 4 to be like the Office, which Micheal being Twilight. 

I'm kidding of course, but it would still be a good episode, as to how while your rank may be higher, you can still treat those "below" you as your equals and more importantly your friend.
