Someone (I forget who, sorry!) in the stream chat had pointed out that Twilight enchanting Smarty Pants like that was an awfully Starlight Glimmer-esque move.

Unicorns: no sense of right and wrong! :ohboy:

Twilight learned from her mistake though.

That was me. :v: No worries!

This is still one of my favorite episodes. Seeing Twilight freak out about a deadline is hilarious and easy to identify with, and I love how self-aware it is about the concept of the weekly friendship lessons.

:shock: Rainbow must be angry with Applejack!

:twismug: She must hate her guts...

:excite: Wonderful!

I've always found this episode brilliant, as well as entertaining. The "character goes insane" or "freak-out" episodes always appeal to me anyway, but to have such a great story prompting these "freak-out" moments is what makes me continue to watch this episode over and over again.

Top-tier episode for me. One of the best of the show. :-D
