My desktop computer, also known as my gaming machine, is being a huge butthole, and I'm angry.

But enough of that. Let's take a look at today's episode.

Every Little Thing She Does

It's about time we have some Starlight Glimmer again. Isn't she supposed to be the main focus of the season?

Is Starlight really trying? She seems to be actively avoiding her reformation, or at least diluting each of her friendship lessons and thus rendering them nearly pointless. Can't she just do them one at a time? Friendship isn't based on a checklist.

Quality Quantity, Starlight.

I felt no sympathy for Starlight when everypony was talking over each other to organize everything. She brought that upon herself.

And now she's using hypnosis.

I thought Pinkie was hilarious . And everyone talks like robots. A little dark, but I thought it was funny. Creepy, but kind of funny. This whole episode is just a game of Starlight Says. Pinkie was the best.

I like teacher Twilight. She doesn't yell, she gives constructive criticism and helps you overcome your obstacles.

They're all hung over.

Take the whole beginning of the apology scene out of context, and it sounds bad.

Suddenly they're not hung over anymore? Suddenly everything's alright? Okay then...

Overall: This episode was surprisingly amusing. A little dark with the zombie-robot mind control going on, but it was handled very comedically. And I liked how Twilight handled the issue. She was very mature and helpful, and didn't just bark at her in anger. Starlight still has a long way to go, but I think she learned something in this episode (knock on wood and pray for no backwards development). It's about time we saw Starlight doing another friendship lesson. Isn't that supposed to be the focus of the season?

I really liked this episode. Character development happened for once, and it was enjoyable to watch. I'm still on the fence about Starlight, though. She learned something, but it was after hypnotizing her friends, which was not cool. They cancel each other out. So I don't hate her or love her still. But she's definitely getting somewhere, and that makes me happy.

Next weekend I get to start writing Coppermane & Fluttershy's next big story for when Legends of Everfree is released. I hope it won't disappoint. I've got some really [hopefully] cute ideas to kick it off, but then the drama will ensue. I'm so excited to start the next big CopperShy project, and I hope to see you all there.

Have a great rest of the day! Now I must take a nap. Me tired...
