The ending was heavily foreshadowed, so I don't think they were INTENDING to make it terribly unpredictable. The way they got the message across was by deliberately allowing the viewer to catch on while RD was still being stupid about it. So in a way, the predictability was necessary.

Oh also, there is NOTHING and I mean NOTHING this episode could have done to better solidify my love for the show than to have a superhero parody episode.

EDIT: And yes, banjo, I did pick up on that. And I want more episodes like this one.

Well, true, I suppose they did go full throttle with the foreshadowing. But I disagree that the predictability was neccesary. Instead of having it become gradually more obvious who the MDW was, they could've had RD become more jealous and more desperate for attention. IMO, that would've made the episode much better.

Or, they could've at least tried to make it more subtle. I mean, as soon as Fluttershy flew by in the MDW costume, it was pretty damn obvious. And to be honest, I kinda feel stupid for not working it out sooner than that, I should've known from seeing Twilight's magic aura and how AJ stopped the...whatever the hell it's called.

At first I thought Celestia had sent Luna to play the role of Mare-Do-Well. It seemed to fit, anyway.

I don't blame you for thinking that, to be honest. The MDW being an alicorn was my Pla-er, Theory B.

This is the best episode ever.

I would totally join Scootaloo's club.

This is now two Rainbow Dash episodes in a row. I would be very okay if this continued for the remainder of the season.

Hmmm...

Needs more Fluttershy.

I swear, until Fluttershy flew by in the costume, I thought it was Trixie. I wanted to see Sephisto's reaction to that. Alas, NOPE.

Me too, a bit. I believe someone who works on the show (an animator, I think, I can't remember) mentioned that she might be reappearing in Season 2, and that would've been quite a good time for it. Oh well.

I remember when that happened, but that was just someone posing as an animator. None of it was for real.

Oh. Damn. Well, I suppose it wouldn't really make much sense for that to happen anyway. What else did that guy say? I can't remember anything else.

I'm glad Pinkie Sense made a triumphant return... As a minor role. But still. It makes the first episode on Pinkie Sense that much better.

At first, I just thought it was just Applejack, but the dam scene made it clear that the rest of the Mane 6 was Mare-do-well.

I'm surprised Fluttershy was able to fly as fast as she did.

Okay, so I figure I'll give you all a sneak-peek at my new fanfic, if anyone's interested...

Would I be correct in assuming this is a murder fanfic? Or at least a death one?
