Well, let's read the synopsis, shall we?

"The Flim Flam Brothers' cure-all tonic promises Ponyville citizens a chance to be rid of their ailments. Applejack has her doubts about the merits of the tonic, until Granny Smith begins taking it and appears to be cured of all her aches and pains."

This doesn't sound like a Granny Smith-focused episode, and more of an AJ-focused one.

And no, trustworthiness does have some relation to honesty. If we speculate that the tonic did indeed cure Granny Smith and that the placebo effect is irrelevant here, then basically Flim and Flam has learned to be honest with their consumers since the events of The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 from the Apple family's supposed integrity and honesty in the same way Coco Pommel, the Wonderbolts, Cheese Sandwich and Seabreeze learned from Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie (retroactively) and Fluttershy respectively.

However, I do hope they won't go to that direction and instead go to the "placebo effect" direction, where Applejack will face a dilemma about whether to tell Granny Smith the truth that the tonic doesn't actually affect anything or let her live her life without feeling the pain inflicted by her ailments.
