i think i can explain about about how the pigs' music works
well
this should be interesting
remember that they make music with a very dense light
yeah
o.k. and remember about the smoke standing still and how they they really get uptight when you try to move the smoke
right?
right
yeah?
i think the music in that dense light is probably what makes the smoke stand still. as soon as the pony's mane starts to get good in the back any sort of motion
especially of smoke or gas
begins to make the ends split
well don't the splitting ends change the density of the ponies' music so it affects the density of the pigs' music
which makes the smoke move which upsets the pigs?
no
it isn't like that
well
how does it work?
well
what it does is when it strikes any sort of energy field or solid object or even something as ephemeral as smoke
the first thing it does is begins to inactivate the molecular motion so that it slows down and finally stops. that's why the smoke stops. and also have you ever noticed how the the smoke clouds shrink up? that's because the molecules come closer together. the cold light makes it get so small
this is really brittle smoke
and that's why the pigs don't want you to touch it
see
when the smoke gets that brittle what happens when you try to move it is it disintegrates
and the pigs get uptight 'cause you know they
they worship that smoke. they salute it every day
you know we've got something here
and
and
and
and that's the basis of all their nationalism. like if they can't salute the smoke every morning when they get up. yeah
it's a vicious circle. you got it
