"An enthusiastic young griffin asks the Crusaders to help her get her own Cutie Mark; the Crusaders encounter a seemingly impossible problem." 

 

It was hinted at a long time ago that there would be an episode involving a griffin with a cutie mark, looks like this is it. Also, if I'm remembering this right, this episode was supposed to air after A Hearth's Warming Tail. I get that they moved Scare Master so it could air on Halloween, but why was this one bumped up?

More Griffons = More Gilda? Because I hope so. Anyway, this sounds like it could be a cute episode, though I have no clue why it was moved up

Color me intrigued! This really has the making of a potentially great episode depending on how they handle it. :)

There's never been an episode where Pinkie made a surprise appearance as the only member of the Mane Six in an episode we didn't expect her to appear in. As I know it, she does this most of the time. If we're lucky, we may finally see this happen, but chances are, it's very, very, VERY slim. If it does happen, I only want her around for about 1 or 1 1/2 minutes of the episode.

tbh, i smell CMC tediousness and a griffin with a cutie mark, because....reasons. Inbefore every creature on this planet can obtain one.

I stopped thinking about how cutie marks work anyway since Troubleshoes.

Awesome! Glad to see this episode finally getting an official airdate. This and "The Times are a Changeling" are the two episodes I'm most looking forward to for the second half of the season because of the more serious tone they (hopefully) will have.

Hmm, is it possible for other creatures rather than ponies to get a cutie mark? Maybe the griffin will get some sort of badge, like an honorary cutie mark?

If the Tree had dialogue, it'd probably say something like this:

 

That's what I'm saying though! 

 

The tree orders two of its arbiters of Harmony to scout the Griffon kingdom now that their morale is at all time low and they are ripe for the taking, and then proceeds to convert one of the residents to the doctrine of harmony in order to plant its seeds over there. Now one of the Griffons actually wants a cutie mark?

I dont like the idea that another species can get cutie marks beside HORSES. The Griffin are special in their own way, they dont need a stamp in the butt to confirm that. Damn it, spreading friendship is not enough? That little bird's purposes in life need another species come to them and stamp a lovely signature in their butt, that griffin has no pride at all. What happen next? This wont be the last, will they? Another species will get cutie marks too.  :angry:

This ep isnt even air yet, i cant jugde its quality, afterall, good writting is good writting, but the line between masterpiece and absolutely despisable is just a thread. I hope the THX can slap my cynical ass and prove what im thinking is a absolute paranoid.  :angry:

That is one of the best things about possible social allegory though. People applaud. People get upset. I mean, is this going to be about cultural appropriation? Is the cutie mark not going to happen and it becomes a moral about accepting who you are and being ok with that?

 

This concept could be a great story. Yes it could have far reaching implications ... but we've been through that with Pony so many times we should expect some change in the status quo every now and again.

This sounds like it is going to be a really interesting episode, and I am definitely looking forward to it.

Maybe this is the episode where the show introduces hippogriffs and for a plot twist it turns out that character isn't a griffon but instead a hippogriff.

The feels, I sense their coming. this could potentially be a sad episode, with griffons having no cutie marks and a young griffon wanting one potentially a lot, this could be a setup for a tear jerker. Very interesting idea for an episode overall, looking forward to it.

That this episode was moved from 9 to 19 makes me wonder if they had a toy line planned for the little griffon and something was wrong with the toys so they had to remake them.

 

At any rate, if anyone can get a griffon a cutie mark, it is the CMC.
