Sorry, but when did Fluttershy ever used body language with the animals? She talked with them since the pilot.

And concerning Applejack -

"If I wanted to do an episode about Applejack, I'd probably make something similar to Applejack's "Day" Off. I think we should spend some time with AJ away from the farm. What kind of stuff would AJ do during winter (when she's not so needed on the farm)? What does that speak about her personality and values? "

1) Applejack IS away from the farm.

2) What does THIS episode tell about her personality and values? She's observing details like in 'Applejack's Day Off' and she isn't ready to forgive any possible harm her family could POSSIBLY have received.

"Remember when mysteries in this show didn't automatically give away the result? Last season, it was just obvious. Now, they're not even trying."

Maybe they wanted the time to have the ponies work for a happy ending beyond just having the mystery? This isn't a detective story after all.
