Here are my thoughts on the episode and the fandom based on it:

1. Why are people letting Derpy overshadow Applejack in her own damn episode when Derpy only had one line?! That makes no freakin' since. What, would you let Lyra and Bon-Bon overshadow a Spike episode if they confirmed their relationship with each other.

2. Speaking of Spike, I noticed there is an unpleasant absence of Spike or at least absence of speaking role. I thought long and hard about it and concluded that the reason is this...he's being punished for his actions in Secret of My Excess. Twilight thought turning him to stone was a little much, so he's trapped in the house and forced to do extra work like in Baby Cakes. Hate to say this to my favorite character, but that would actually be reasonable.

3. I like Applejack's stubbornness and think it is justified. It takes time to get out of a habit and can't be changed over an episode. And those who say that Applejack's pigheadedness is stupid, why are you accepting Rainbow Dashes extremely big ego, or Rarity's often harsh comments (it's no wonder Applejack and Rarity don't like each other that much).

4. Although not my favorite and painfully predictable, it was kind of enjoyable. Not a huge fan of Pinkie and her craziness (kind of comes off as annoying plus anything pink usually sucks to me) and Rainbow Dashes loyalty isn't as strong (why would she leave two of her friends behind), but all in all, it was okay. 7 out of 10. Could have been stronger, and I still think that Applejack could have a better episode. Hopefully, next episode will be the one.
