Hospital waiting rooms. Hot, stuffy, airless, full of ill ponies, and with nothing to do but watch the half-speed clock, go silently insane, or read horrendously out of date magazines. Applejack enjoys none of these. So of course she picks up a copy of Wing Care, the Basics: for non-Pegasus Parents of Pegasus Foals - easily the most relevant and exciting pamphlet available - and learns more than she will ever need to know on the subject.

Suggested by SockPuppet - thanks for the idea! - as a comedic spin off from In Silent Prison.
