Following the events of the episode ''The Washouts'', Scootaloo has an eye-opening, lesson-learned conversation with Fluttershy to express how guilty she feels for trusting the reckless Lightning Dust, who's arrogant ways could have meant her death. She confides in her about having upset Rainbow Dash after yelling at her and the two have a conversation in which Fluttershy can easily empathise, having been in the same situation in her life before.
