![]() ![]() "I mean, come on Cloudy! She is your daughter after all! Just put aside any differences that you have in the past on that rock farm and live a little for once! You are their mother for Celestia's sake!"Īpart from those two points, this episode was a welcome change and with the addition of Tree Hugger made it all worth while from start to finish. While I don't have a problem with this (after all, it's her life and her decisions), it would have been nice to see Cloudy go to the event with both Maud and Pinkie. But it begs the question on whether family relations with Pinkie and her mother are a bit on the shaky side after going in a different direction that what her mother intended to be. Now, I know why she turned down the invite on her own terms. "What? Cloudy Quartz!? Why would you turn down an invitation to go to the Grand Galloping Gala with your daughter Pinkie?" Now she said in the episode that she wanted to invite her mother, Cloudy Quartz to the event but she ended up taking Maud instead. Now the main point I want to bring up is Pinkie's invite. Now while I didn't see the Gala the first time round due to entering the show after season one, but I had some idea of how it worked. I won't mention those points here due to the risk of starting another fandom war and having to go on the back foot and go into defensive mode, but I have gone into more detail on this point on my episode blog post which can be found at the end of this entry. No joke about that.Īlthough like two weeks ago, I have some objections to how she is portrayed outside of the show. Now I don't know if it was the personality, the style or just the thought of a 1960's hippie girl complete with flowers and vocal tones, but she made me squealing like a fangirl inside. I actually liked this character when I saw the previews and when the episode aired it pretty much confirmed her as a fan favourite like Coco and Maud. Overall this episode doesn't need an explanation, other than a few points.įirst off, Tree Hugger herself. Although I don't have much to say about the episode, but this for me was a huge improvement over the Appleoosa's Most Wanted disaster of two weeks ago. There isn't much more to say other than those five words on my post episode tweet. Everyone's outfits were cute, and Fluttershy's tree-hugger friend was hilarious. I can certainly relate to Discord's multiple friend problem. (Maybe that's just the shipper in me talking, though - little monster) At any rate, this was a very good episode. And the fact that at the end of season 4 Twilight and Discord did develop an interesting friendship that they haven't talked about since then, which might have been an interesting addition to this episode. The episode was about Fluttershy and Discord. I have only a few issues, one of them being that the ending with Princess Celestia and Twilight didn't make much sense the conversation played out as though Twilight hosting the party was the main focus of the episode, but they only mentioned it once before. I love how Discord went from gagging at the thought of friendship to having tea parties and dressing up. I'm definitely not a Fluttershy/Discord shipper, but I have to admit this episode was very cute. I'm not completely caught up yet, but I just had to skip ahead to this one because Discord episodes are the best. I ask that potential spoilers talked about or shown before the episode airs stay within the spoiler tags please, after the episode you no longer have to use the spoiler tags, but warning, if you haven't seen the episode yet after it airs, this thread no doubt will have all sorts of spoilers in reviews, images, etc. As the thread is now open it may indeed contain spoilers. This thread is dedicated to discussing the episode before, during, and afterwards.
