Okay, that wasn't as good as Dance Magic but it still had its charms.

I'm beginning to think that Moliminous might have been onto something when he suggested that Equestria Girls is beginning to use some of the same tropes and concepts as Scooby Doo. The chase scene to a classic 'chase' music, the near-arbitrary unmasking (including lots of logical leaps in the deduction) plus the "and here is how the villain did it" monologue at the end.

Once again, the real strength of this episode was the writing of the eight main characters. No matter how bizarre the situation, the key aspects of the characters continued to shine through. I particularly liked Pinkie's pressing on the Fourth Wall during the faked search scene.

However... Yes. Juniper Montage is not one to forgive and forget. Worse, the girls who destroyed her dreams are living them now by being bit-part players in the movie Daring Do and the Relics of Mareapore. As Sunset Shimmer and Starlight Glimmer know so well, revenge motivated by envy can take one down dark, dark roads to places that you never dreamed to go and to be a person that you never in your worst nightmares imagined that you will be.

Of all the people and ponies in the multiverse, maybe only they will be able to understand Juniper enough to reach out to her and stop her... by any means necessary.

So, the hook is set for next week's concluding episode! :-D
