And thus, a thousand Rule 34 creators for fan art and stories are justified.

I'd give it a 7. It wasn't my favorite Spike ep (whom I do like a lot), but it was pretty funny and did a lot to establish Spike's good heart in conflict with his natural dragon greed.
Is "dragon greed" an offensive stereotype?

Sorry Derpy, but I think we have a canon couple. Actually...

I'll give it a 7. Cute and enjoyable episode, but kinda unremarkable.

And the moral of the story is: Spike's a moron. ;D
Seriously I enjoyed this episode a lot, it was a nice little counter point to "Baby Cakes" only this time around the caregiver was trying to get out of their self imposed responsibilities no matter what, and there was a lot of good character interactions, some funny scenes and the pacing didn't feel rushed. It wasn't the greatest but it was still good enough to revisit down the line.

Did this episode redeem Twilight's owl for anyone?

Did this episode redeem Twilight's owl for anyone? No, because in my eyes he never needed redemption in the first place. And if ponies were to procreate in any manner other than S.E.X we would have gotten some contrived "magic moon beam, raindrop, falling star, feathery stork" explanation by now, and that would make things G3.5 and the more distance this continuity can get from that one the better. (Even the Brony doc takes that stance as well.)

Exactly. He was never the problem that plagued "Owl's Well"

Fred was pretty awesome in this episode. Still can't be bothered to spell his real name.

That was a nice subtle touch to explain why we haven't seen Pee Wee since the episode when he was first introduced. It also shows that Phoenixes are very accepting of taking back their young after they've been handled by other creatures. (A trait that is very rare in wild animals.)

I didn't notice that in the beginning of the episode. Poor Spike.

Or, in regards to the Peewee, Twilight was the one who made him send Peewee back. I guess she didn't want to deal with the the Philomena crap again.
