I guess the biggest surprise was that nopony expected a Sapphire Shores appearance in this episode. That was definitely a pleasant surprise.

Rarity headed off to put the dresses away, since they weren't the issue. She didn't return because Sweetie Belle hasn't calmed down yet. If she didn't have a chance to speak last time, then what chance does she have the second time? Yeah it can pass as a typical 10-year-old reaction, but that doesn't make her in the right. Still, it was nice to see her come to her senses in the end (with the help of Luna). If she'd stuck around for more than a minute, chances are pretty good that she would have gotten the opportunity to talk and figure out what was wrong. Kids will tell you what's wrong if you'll spend more than 60 seconds listening to them. In fact, a couple more lines of dialogue probably would have gotten to the bottom of it. But she didn't stick around before happily exclaiming that her dresses were good and leaving, so we'll never know.

Regarding the comment somepony made about me and my thoughts about Scootaloo being a brat in "The Cutie Mark Chronicles"...
Yea, I thought she was a brat in that one and it led to her being my least liked crusader until "Sleepless IN Ponyville" warmed me up to her again.

Well yeah, she was relieved that her dresses were received well, and she had a schedule to keep.

Well yeah, she was relieved that her dresses were received well, and she had a schedule to keep. And that's why I think she exacerbated the issue. Any other response from her and it's not a problem. Hang around for another minute to try to talk Sweetie Belle through being upset, telling her she'll be back as soon as she puts the clothes up, not leaving so happily, actually trying to talk to her in her room when you know she's upset, all those would have helped the issue. Instead, she showed a lack of empathy on her part and then avoided her. Most people wouldn't have responded to an upset child in that manner, and for someone who has pretty much had two previous opportunities to learn to be mindful of others feelings even when you're stressed, it's a little cold on her part. That's why I think the SB's actions made sense and shouldn't be held against the episode. Rarity's actions, regardless of motive, went a long way in confirming what SB thought, that Rarity is always taking the spotlight from her no matter how hard she works. We know that it's not her intention, and get an It's a Wonderful Life sequence to show it to Sweetie, but at the time Rarity's actions gave her no reason to not be upset. Yes, she is a child, children can be irrational and she was here, that's why it's typically up to the adult to help them through it. Rarity didn't, so Luna stepped in (I guess every time a filly is helped, a princess gets her wings).
