Maybe it's because I saw the Disnay movie the other day but said Parrot is making me think of Igo from Alladin.

If Manehatten WAS shown again, I would hope that they would show it having a wide diversity of ponies and possibly other similar animals (like more zebras) to reflect the ethnic and cultural diversity of the real New York City.

Agree so much.
And a Manehattan story must involve AJ.

It will involve all of one line. Referencing how she got her cutie mark. Which we already know about.

from The land of Dirt
There lived in old Equestria
The Princess fair Celestia
Charged with moving moon and sun above.
She had no partner, nor a friend,
To aid her journey without end,
She despaired for she had no-one to love.
One night she returned to her room,
Her only friend midnight's dim gloom,
She sighed and sadly shook her head,
She opened her room's heavy door,
And was shocked right down to her core,
A young filly was sleeping on her bed!
The filly awoke with a sigh,
And opened her lovely green eyes,
And the Princess felt her heart start to melt,
The lonely time it was now past,
She had a friend now and at last,
Truly the greatest joy she'd ever felt.
Mane and fur were as dark as night,
They glowed softly with their own light,
The filly's eyes seemed to glow just the same,
A voice spoke in Celestia's mind,
This voice was both calming and kind,
It said 'Luna' was this new filly's name.
With the dark filly by her side,
She felt sadness fade and then subside,
Celestia knew right then why she had come:
To bring loneliness to an end,
To be both her sister and friend,
And raise the moon when she lowered the sun.
She taught her sister what to do,
And proclaimed "Luna, I trust you,
To share my duty and to do it right.
Half of this duty I now give,
And for as long as we both live,
I shall be the day and you are the night."
Uncountable years floated by,
The two sisters both shared the sky,
But soon envy darkened young Luna's soul.
The envy seethed, bubbled and stirred
To Luna wicked whispered purred
And she felt it's ever powerful pull
"They don't even care for your toil
Doesn't it cause your blood to boil?
Why bother doing the task anyway?"
You raise the moon after sun's fall,
But no one cares, no one at all,
They wait for your sister to bring the day!"
She ignored the words, or so she tried,
Malicious thoughts that terrified
For her sister was the one she adored,
She pushed the wicked thought away,
But they were strengthened day by day,
Stabbing at her heart just like a dull sword.
It tore her soul, it slashed and screamed,
While awake and while she dreamed,
And the walls in her mind fell one by one.
When the final wall was shattered,
She felt that only she mattered,
She confronted her sister, the Sun.
"You're the only one they see,
There is no love given to me,
Next to you, I am just second rate.
I became jealous of you,
But that feeling, it swelled and grew,
And now for you I feel nothing but hate.
I will force them to love me,
For I shall be all that they see,
I'll take away your sunlight infernal,
When ponies look up to the sky,
They will not see you, only I;
For I shall bring forth the Night Eternal!"
Her hatred at last freed from its cage
She became Nightmare Moon and in a rage
She attacked Celestia, death in her eye,
The two fought each other for hours,
And the use of their great powers,
Made both the sun and the moon fill the sky.
Nightmare Moon lost the duel in the end,
Celestia begged her stop, sister and friend,
But Nightmare Moon ignored her sister's plea,
With both a foul curse and a leer,
She swore revenge on "sister dear"
If she ever found a way to break free.
With Luna now lost to her hate,
Celestia left her to her fate:
The only punishment that fit her crime,
Using her most powerful spell,
She made the pale moon Nightmare's cell,
Her prison forever and for all time.
Celestia took back the night's power
And from her caste's highest tower
She again controls both night and day
When she makes evening's moon rise
It always brings tears to her eyes
For she feels she failed Luna in some way
So if you hear dark envy speak,
No matter how strong or how weak,
I pray you take this tale to heart.
Fight with all your soul within,
For if you let jealousy win
It can tear friendship and family apart.

@Applelight: I noticed you still didn't have a lot of material on Foil!Dash (Smoke Screen ?) so I'll try to provide some.
Smoke Screen is a member of the Ponyville Fire Department. He is very talented and is aware of this but he doesn't like to brag, or being the center of attention, or socializing much at all. Now he is typically a polite pony but he is so dedicated to his duty that he usually comes across as kind of aloof to other ponies. He has very little patience for other ponies foalishness, and can become quite snappish when he assumes ponies aren't taking a situation (any situation) seriously.

Thoughts on episode 16:
Cloudsdale= Scenery Porn at it's finest.
Male ponies continue to = jackasses, idiots, or labor force.
RD continues to irk me, coaching someone on how to cheer? Not cool. I get her insecurities and all, and yes sympathy and she was very brave and what not. But I'm still not big on her. She's just to It's All About Me.
Rarity was nicely observant about RD's stage fright. Go her. Also voulntering to be the first to test out the spell on? Sweet. Don't ever change Rarity. And find a way to bring those wings back for future epsiodes. (Twilight will want to learn how to master that spell right? ) Though it's clear she has a problem with attention going to her head.
When did Dr. Hooves become a pegasus? He also sounded diffrent from when AB was harrassing him at the market back in Call Of Cutie Mark.

So you want some pony to be adorkable? I think depending on how Chuckles can fill that niche. More in a socially awkward way, but he can be a geek to.

I think, Mage, it was more on teaching Fluttershy to cheer properly instead of just the "yay~".

Applejack was a filly when she was in Manehattan. She hasn't been there in years. I don't think she'll remember enough about the place to give anyone a tour. I doubt she even knows what the hotspots are.
