@ Dooplis

The second term is more legit if you don't take Urban Dictionary (which in most cases is factual). In fact, look up filler on it and you'll see that in most cases filler is the same thing.

Like I said, filler is not what another character does while someone else is away or doing something else that will be in another episode; that's called intertwining stories. Also, technically that would mean this episode is also a filler. Fillers are something that is noncanon and doesn't go with the story/series. Since MLP has no background like anime, nothing is filler, it's either slice-of-life or adventure/story.
