> That strategy was genuinely a bold move I must say. If somebody tells out there that MLP is predicable, that person definitely hasn´t checked this episode.

This episode makes me a little more hopeful for the season.  
MLP is not out of ideas yet.

> it´s Pinkie Pie, don´t question it. 

That's why it's only a minor complaint at most. Still, I could understand feeling a little off with it. 

> they fired Zephyr Breeze for being incompetent but that´s relatively speaking, because they don´t do their services much better. The fanbase asked if Celestia was truly incompetent (in the first seasons) but I think that her guards are less reliable than the Team Rocket capturing a Pikachu for 2 decades.

This

> well, it seems that you are applying to be a seer. And yeah, I was quite surprised that they have used it for their own advantage.

It'd be cool if they have it actually part of the defenses in some way in the future but I doubt it. Still fun to see in concept even if it was only for an episode.

> I suppose he was the former Captain because Flash Magnus applied to that job around season 8? I don´t know.

I suppose one would have to try to look at the relenship between the Crystal Empire and Equestria as a whole. Though like you point out here, a fuzzy lack of info over a true answer, even for a good guess. 

> FiM is wildly known for rewriting their own ideas and twist them for the next episodes and what you say sounds like a de facto plot hole that have created themselves over time. 

Yeah. The lore only half applies on and off at times. With one off implications it's understandable though sometimes for consistent themes and bigger set ups I do count it as a criticism with the show. Still, it's not like it's a deal breaker and there has been bigger dumpster fires of contradictions in media where it matters more  just take a look at Star Trek in its golden age in the 1990s 

> they did a story between this two in the comics that didn´t go all that well.

Really? Actually did not know this.

> However this episode paid off that duo and while the fuel may be nonsensical, it´s funny to think that both Rarity and Luna are voiced by Tabitha. 

See, it's a match made in heaven.

> These two needed to shine a bit, especially Luna. 

Indeed Luna, in a weird way, she has been both overused as fanservice but under utilized as a character, if that makes any sense. Perhaps I'll go into deeper detail a little later. 

>  it´s one that a fan will tend to pick for having a nice time all the way through.

For me is that I cannot think of anything I'd done differently other than a single nitpick that doesn't really bug me. That's beyond top tier in my book.
