Transcript:
Phoebe: I'll pretend to be a SPACE ROBOT! Marigold: And I will pretend to be a unicorn! Phoebe: You can't "pretend" to be something you really are. Marigold: Why? Phoebe: Because the point is to imagine you're something DIFFERENT. Marigold: All right... Oh WOE! Oh SADNESS! I am SOMETHING OTHER THAN AND INFERIOR TO A UNICORN! Phoebe: Pretend to be MODEST unicorn. Marigold: A challenge worthy of my gifts!

Marigold, “other than and inferior to a unicorn” is a statement straight out of the Department of Redundancy Department.

Make her head explode.Tell her to pretend to be something superior to a unicorn, that is not just another kind of unicorn.

The words “and inferior to” were not in the original version of this strip.

Did Marigold’s friendship with Phoebe lead her to acknowledge that “other than a unicorn” does not imply “inferior”? Or was it the fact that they recently attended a party with dragons?
