The thing I am still mostly miffed about and where I feel equality should play a role is that Rarity did not get her own episode this season. And yeah, it feels like the big event they build up to should not be resolved in a single episode.

Something as huge as you know what ( ) shouldn't be one and done in 22 minutes. And watch there be a metric plotload of Rarity come Season 4, which will come at the expense of... let's say Pinkie. Sorry.

Nah, season four's going to be half Twilight learning how good life is as an alicorn, half Fluttershy and Discord hanging out. Also there'll be a couple of CMC episodes.

Nuh uh, Lizuka. A third of the season will be reforming the Diamond Dogs, Diamond Tiara and the resurrected King Sombra.

True. Also the whole season will be written by Merriwether Williams.

Based of stories written by Terry Antonio and his friends. Okay, I'll stop now. Since I still love ponies very much.

Somehow, that much negative stuff combined will produce the greatest season of TV ever known. It's the same logic that gave us the New Age Outlaws.

I would be more happy for now if next weeks' episode turns out to be one of the best this season.

I wonder if the pets will get subtitles.

But who is the Honky Tonk Man in all this?

...I've decided to look at this episode in another way to see if it helps my opinion of it, so bear with me. I don't think Discord actually reformed at the end of the episode. He knew from the word 'go' that the Mane Six was itching to turn him back into a smirking stone lawn ornament, and his only saving grace was Fluttershy insisting that he could be changed. So, if you're a being of chaos who enjoys being free, what would you do? You'd play along. If any of you have ever read Order of the Stick, he's doing the exact same thing that Belkar did; he's faking towing the company line, because while it's distasteful, the alternative is worse in the grand scheme of things. He hasn't really changed, and it was obvious that Celestia knows he hasn't had a change of heart, hence why she let Twilight and the others keep their Elements. But it's better to have Discord putting his energies towards your goals than it is to fight him every step of the way. Looking at it from that point of view, that Discord isn't reformed as much as he is playing ball... it's not a bad episode. It's still not a great episode, don't get me wrong (seriously, this should have been a two parter), but it's not as bad as "Spike at your Service". So I'm changing my score to a 6 from that 4 I initially gave it.

That is definitely an intriguing way of watching at it and I wouldn't mind if a future episode goes in that direction.

That bumps Keep Calm And Flutter On up to 8.21, ahead of Apple Family Reunion and The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 in the ratings standings.
