What caused that earlier comment of "this episode is a lot funnier than I remember" was the fact that the UFP for this one was quite great, and it had some great moments from the episode to play off of.

I originally remember it being slow, and it kind of is. But I love what it does with Celestia, what that playfulness tells us about how she views the unnecessary stress of her subjects. And of course, Twilight. The show really doesn't give such valuable bits of characterization of Celestia like that anymore. Everything about how she views her role, how she wants to engage with people, and how she feels others shouldn't have to worry the way they do is far more valuable than the three episodes about how "quirky" and "life is hard" she is.
