* Название серии переведено довольно условно, т.к. изначально это отсылка к рассказу Эрнеста Хемингуэя “По ком звонит колокол” (For Whom the Bell Tolls).

S04E20 “Leap of Faith” (Прыжок веры) – 30 марта 2014 года

The Flim Flam Brothers’ cure-all tonic promises Ponyville citizens a chance to be rid of their ailments. Applejack has her doubts about the merits of the tonic, until Granny Smith begins taking it and appears to be cured of all her aches and pains.

Напомню, что последние две серии первоначально фигурировали под номерами 20 и 21, но теперь эта неточность официально исправлена.
