Talk:28 Pranks Later/@comment-26423071-20160818111825

You know, this whole prank relied entirely on Rainbow Dash staying holed up in that barn.

In other words, it relied on Rainbow Dash acting out of character.

Here are the things that would likely ended up happening:

-Rainbow Dash flies away to Celestia's castle and asks Celestia for help, and now the Ponyville residents have to explain their actions to Celestia (and her patience only goes so far)

-Rainbow Dash starts pummeling the "zombies"

-Rainbow Dash flies up to Wonderbolts Headquarters and informs Spitfire of the situation, and (in tried and true "military vs zombies" tradition), soon the residents of Ponyville are attacked by the Wonderbolts (and Spitfire have NONE of Celestia's enormous patience, so she wouldn't take kindly to this prank)

-since they chose to act like Trioxin Zombies, Rainbow Dash gathers up some clouds and starts electrocuting the citizens of Ponyville

So, there was more of a chance of this prank backfiring on them.
