However, they seem more interested making Twilight happy by not ruining her party rather than forging a new relationship. Yes, they gain a little more understanding of each other and somewhat more tolerant of their differences. A lesser show would offer an off the rack “oh, we have just misunderstood each other, let’s be besties forever now” sort of deal. However the best part is how the writers handle the resolution of their conflict. Even though they allow friction between the characters at other points in the series, it rises to open hostility in this one. The truth or dare scene with Applejack ending up in a frilly dress was hilarious, and the bit with her machine-gunning a stack of pillows with her hind legs seems to be in just about every MLP:FIM mashup.īut the most interesting thing about this episode is the animosity between Applejack and Rarity, and how the writers handle it. Even though it is such a well-trodden setup, Rarity and Applejack’s constant and escalating bickering is quite amusing, only made more-so if the viewer specifically likes one of the two. I watched this again before reviewing it and ended up enjoying quite a bit more than I remembered the first time around. This is the most “compact” of all the episodes as there are only three ponies in it, and 95% of it takes place in Twilight’s library. Afterwards, they stop fighting and the detente allows Twilight to declare her first party a success. The two argue but end up admitting their mutual culpability and agree that they need to work together – including Rarity “getting messy” – to fix the issue. Applejack stabilizes the tree with her lasso, but because she ignores Rarity’s attention to detail, ends up dragging the toppling tree into the house through the bedroom window. This doesn’t last long and as Twilight leads them through the various slumber-party activities (makeovers, ghost stories, etc), the two bicker with increasing hostility.Īs the storm rages late in the night one of the trees outside begins to fall down – which Applejack faults Rarity for because it wouldn’t have happened if she would have done what she was supposed to do. Neither one of them wants to be around the other but between the violent storm, and the newly-socializing Twilight’s desire to have her first slumber party, they try to strike an uneasy truce and stay. They both end up taking refuge in Twilight Sparkle’s nearby house. An argument ensues, and they spend so much time grinding their axes they they get caught in storm. This irritates the ever practical Applejack who is focused on getting the job done quickly and correctly. Glamor pony Rarity pokes around using her Unicorn magic to spruce everything up rather than meaningfully contributing to the task at hand. Tyger: This begins with a lot of ponies chipping on on a work detail cleaning up dry branches and similar debris from the trees in town in preparation for an impending storm. So here we are to help, episode by episode, pony by pony. Not everypony is ready to just jump straight into good things. Not that you should need any help, because it’s a great show and you can just start watching, but hey. But there are a lot of bronies around, and here three of ‘em help you through all the episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
