Transcript:
HEAVENLY NOSTRILS Marigold: Aye? Phoebe: Hey, Marigold? Why are you so much smarter than a horse? Phoebe: You ALSO are somewhat smarter than a horse. Phoebe: But I'm NOT a horse. Marigold: I am not a horse either. Phoebe: You're closer than I am. Marigold: In what way? Phoebe: You have four hooves, and a tail. Marigold: YOU have no horn and do not glow in the dark. Let us agree to be non-horses together. Phoebe: "Somewhat" smarter?

Categorizing species. Taxonomists get divided between “Lumpers” (Unicorn = Horse) and "Splitters (Horse =/= Unicorn). And then there are unicorn taxonomists, (Friends = sorta = Unicorn)

I hope those horses aren’t sentient enough to understand how they’re being royally dissed here.
John W Kennedy Premium Member about 8 years ago
Horses are plenty sentient. But then, so is a Venusfly trap.
Unicorns are /much/ more sapient than horses, though.

The horse takes great delight in out smarting the supposedly intelligent humans.
