Stranger than Fan-fiction: Rainbow Dash and Quibblepants are captured by Daring Do’s nemesis (Whose name I can’t remember at the moment.).
Daring Done?: Rainbow Dash is captured and tied up by Dr. Whatshisname’s henchmen, then Pinkie Pie and Daring Do have to save her.
Non-compete Clause: I haven’t seen this episode yet, but I did see a leaked screencap showing Rainbow Dash and Applejack trapped inside a vine cage hanging over a pool of piranhas.
What’s up with that? It doesn’t really make a lot of sense when you think about Dashie’s character in previous seasons; she can kick through trees and lift giant boulders, but she’s not strong enough to break though chains, ropes or vines? Wut?
Why is a girl who’s had both regular physical training and military training getting tied up and can’t break free all of a sudden? Why are the writers ignoring her past character traits-do they think that female athletes are not as strong or tough as their male counterparts or something?
I’d really like to know why that is…and also wanna know when the writers are gonna stop doing this to poor Rainbow (In fact, I’ll bet each of you 5 bucks that if Rainbow Dash was real, and she watched the episodes where she gets tied up, she’d go and give the writers a taste of their own medicine by tying them up with ropes, chains, and vines.).
I have a theory that she is often captured because the writers want to put her brash personality to rest. They want to make her humble.
