"After a betrayal like that, he doesn't deserve to have friends!" they say, but how narrow minded they are. If they had paid attention, they would realize that Discord masterminded the whole thing Let's examine what we know from the episode. It opens with Twilight feeling like a useless princess. It is revealed that Discord was chosen to hunt down Tirek because he has a sophisticated magic radar. Using this, discord was able to figure out where and what the keys were, and he also knew what was inside the box. He also knew Twilight was the only one who did not get her key yet Everything is in place, and it's time for Discord to put his master plan into action. Discord is very, very old, and clearly had past dealing with Tirek, so he is aware of Tirek's character and personality. Discord pretends to fall for Tirek's temptations and to trust him. As Tirek absorbs more and more magic, Discord knows the princesses would have to pool their magic to have a chance of defeating him. Naturally, twilight, being the element of magic, would be chosen as the focus. It's no coincidence that Discord just happens to leave a single window unaltered in the castle, the one depicting a 4th princess ustas planned Anonymous 05/10/14(Sat)20:55:06 No. 17694926 File: BrentRambo.gif (369 KB, 267x200) □ cont.

He puts up a very convincing act when he is "suddenly and unexpectedly" betrayed. Remember when he revealed such very specific information about the keys earlier? It's no coincidence that he just happened to be the one to give twilight her key. Let's take a look at the other keys. The Mane 6 pony learns a lesson and receives a related item from another pony after they both learned a lesson about that specific element. But what does the other pony matter? It's not like they are linked to the elements of harmony at all. The magic of the keys must come solely from their respective Mane 6 pony. This ensured that when Discord gave Twilight the amulet, that she would turn it into a key, even though Discord didn't actually have to learn anything. And now, with that key, they open the box and use the powers within (which Discord knew about) to defeat Tirek. Twilight gets her own kingdom and feels useful again. All discord has to do is not gloat and take credit Let's recap Discord plays the fool, and pretends to betray his friends and be suddenly backstabbed, all as part of his master plan to simultaneously defeat Tirek, restore Twilight's confidence, and get her a kingdom of her own Anonymous 05/10/14(Sat)20:59:29 No. 17695018 File: 1354835729458.jpg (78 KB, 730x413) P> ou Anonymous 05/10/14(Sat)21:01:10 No. 17695047 17694963 (You) This...does sound like something that Discord would do Anonymous 05/10/14(Sat)21:02:58 No. 17695086 2217695281 1769496 I don't think the writers are this smart, but it actually makes sense

Even if this isn't exactly the way it happened, it is an undeniable fact that Discord's bookmarks led the ponies to five of the keys, and then he personally gave Twilight the sixth key. Without Discord Tirek would never have been defeated. He definitely deserves a Mulligan on this one.
