If tradition dictates that the villain gets a free pre-battle monologue revealing their nefarious plan, the heroes should get a chance to point out all the ways it has fallen short.

Though now that I’m thinking about it, the heroic version of the pre-final-battle all-is-revealed monologue/tangent is a staple of the mystery and heist genres. Pulling that off in an improvisational medium is a lot more difficult.

Transcript:

Twilight Sparkle: Fillies and gentlecolts, allow me to introduce: The REAL Princess Mi Amore Cadenza!
DM: The crowd collectively gasps!
Applejack: Impostor, huh? Ah guess Twilight wins the bet.
Rainbow Dash: We had a betting pool?
Princess Cadance: WHAT?! How did you find her? And how did you get past my bridesmaids?
(beat)
Princess Cadance: …Okay, fair enough. Not exactly the most *ingenious* part of my plan.
Twilight Sparkle: Out of curiosity, which part is that supposed to be? The part where you impersonate the most looked-at and talked-about pony in town? Or the part where no one ever suspects you because of your *phenomenal* acting skills?
DM: Ah, I see it’s time for the traditional pre-battle roasting.
