1While playing a game on her phone, Sunset trips over a bottle lying in the sand and finds a treasure map inside. She, Twilight, and Pinkie Pie follow it to a treasure chest which has another message in a bottle, this one leading to a sushi stand which set the whole thing up as a marketing tool.

4!!Tropes:

6* AdaptationPersonalityChange: The sushi stand attendant is the human counterpart of the pony serving drinks at the Daring Do convention in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E14StrangerThanFanFiction Stranger Than Fan Fiction]]". Her pony counterpart was a grump due to working a BurgerFool job, her sullen expression only changing when she witnessed Quibble Pants and Rainbow Dash's PlotMandatedFriendshipFailure - to which she reacted by cracking a [[{{Jerkass}} rather nasty smile]]. In contrast, the human version is quite cheerful and actually seems happy with her job, enthusiastically greeting Sunset, Twilight and Pinkie when they arrive.
7* FireBreathingDiner: Pinkie starts belching green fire after putting too much wasabi on her sushi.
8* MessageInABottle: Sunset kicks off the plot by finding one.
9* MythologyGag: The sushi truck looks very similar to [[https://derpibooru.org/1678000 Sunset's truck]] from the ''Equestria Girls Mini'' toyline.
10* SuddenlyVoiced: The attendant's pony counterpart had no lines in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E14StrangerThanFanFiction Stranger Than Fan Fiction]]", but here is voiced by Creator/TaraStrong.
11* SuddenVideoGameMoment: During their search for the treasure chest, the girls are shown in a video game sequence similar to the mobile game Sunset was playing.
12* TalkLikeAPirate: The sushi stand attendant makes a (not very convincing) effort to sound like a gruff pirate.
13* ViralMarketing: The whole plot is an in-universe marketing stunt by a local sushi stand.
