Guest Authors' Note: "And so ends this tale. Will Pinkie DM again? Will Glue make another major appearance? Was a spy mission a good foil for Rainbow Dash? Did we toss in this nod in the expectation that some readers would have noticed the name discrepancy, or were we setting up the joke that he's as effective at most things as dishwater slog is at being glue?

Yes, probably not, no (or not this one), and what do you think?"
Transcript:
Pinkie Pie: At first I wasn't sure how to make a good NPC foil for Dash.
Pinkie Pie: I didn't know if I wanted to make him an artist, maybe a bard.
Pinkie Pie: But then I started thinking about this pony going to the gym.
Pinkie Pie: That's when my creation got on the right track.
Pinkie Pie: The perfect spy. Nobody would suspect such a hobo.
Pinkie Pie: The one pony that could set up such an elaborate set of misdirection.
Rainbow Dash: Wait, he was a spy?
Pinkie Pie: I've been watching too many bond films lately.
Rainbow Dash: James Bond?
Pinkie Pie: No, bond, as in stuff sticking to stuff.
Rarity: I have never heard of this genre. Are you sure it exists, darling?
Pinkie Pie: So I named him Glue...
Pinkie Pie: ...because he's supposed to be a slippery, shady sort, to whom things don't stick.
Twilight Sparkle: And a bit of a fail?
Rainbow Dash: Maybe his real name is Dishwater Slog?
Pinkie Pie: Yeah...about that...
