Welll Well Well.... You didn't screw this episode up guys. Congratulations. You actually made Maud a likable character. Grab yourself a cookie. You earned it.

After the previous two episodes being dredful (one for being a shameless marketing ploy worse than the show itself and the other for being so dull outside of being located in the forest of hell I didn't bother to watch) it's nice to see a really good episode made out of it, with a well rounded moral that wasn't forced. Maud herself was the star of it, being the Raven/Mei/Daria of the group, yet still somehow being more interesting than Twilight (sorry fanboys. I just don't think your purple princess is interesting)

If I had to complain or nitpic (and boy, do I love doing that), I'd have to say that when Pinkie was nearly about to die, they all just stood there. I'm especially directing this at you Twi: you have magic and wings. You're the strongest magician shown in canon it seems. You can change species for crying out loud.... So why didn't you freaking do anything? Also, Spike wasn't there, at all. Now, this isn't enough to take the episode down to much, because frankly, I believe after the whole Breezies incident as well as his treatment in the show recently, he's been given a couple of weeks leave for mental theropy.

Other than that, I really liked the episode. Strange, as while Pinkie is my least favorite of the main cast (and 2nd least favorite in the show period), her episodes this season outside of Pinkie Apple Pie have been really good, and have shown signs of what could be a good character if they didn't make her into an unlikable spaz all the time (like in Fili Vanilli). And the bonding between the two Pie's was great. It's what I wanted to see in FIM in a long time: actual family bonding. This episode didn't dissapoint. Though I still don't get why some people think Maud is attractive. I mean, she's cool and all, but she's no Zecora or Chrysalis >.>

9/10: Great way to redeem yourself show. Bravo.
