How would you feel if your favorite main character was either absent or only got a brief cameo with no lines for three consecutive episodes in a row? Not only that, but Spike's absence here felt inappropriate to me, while "Family Appreciation Day" wasn't an issue. I'm sorry, but it felt like one of my favorites is being written out of the show.

I also feel like more people are talking about how Derpy talked (which is okay, except I heard a lot less about Applejack). I can understand why some of AJ's fans are disappointed. I also didn't think Derpy should have talked (not because her voice sounded bad, but I felt her talking may have taken away what made her a unique character), but it's done.

I'd rather be honest with how I felt about the episode than be dishonest and sugarcoat everything. I wanted to give more positive thoughts of the episode, but it doesn't always happen. All shows I like have some episodes I don't care for, and this one wasn't all that great to me. I'm sorry.
