Am I the only one who really liked the beginning, probably more than the entire episode (with the exception of Zecora and Twilight training)? It showcases the shadier side of this world and I've always been a fan of creative locations. The merchant was basically a neutral that will sell for any price, which means that not everyone in the universe that is pony is completely good and harmonious. I've read some people that said that this takes away from the perfection and happyness of the world. Well if it was all rainbows and sunshines, the series would be bland, boring, and just another G3 in my opinion. Besides, if Equestria is a perfect place to live in, then how come a chaotic villian turned it topsy turvey (Discord) and the citizens of Ponyville have proven that they can be complete toolbags to each other (Putting Your Whooves Down)?
