The episode was decent enough... ...I'm just not feeling the relationship between Big Mac and Sugar Belle. Big Mac had more chemistry with Cheerilee, and with Marble Pie (even if they are related). Sugar Belle, to me, seems forced as a love interest. They've only known for half a season, so I don't buy Big Mac being THIS devastated at the though of Sugar Belle leaving him. I honestly feel like this would have been better as a Cadence/Shining Armor episodfe, since their relationship is much more developed. And Discord felt shoehorned in. He never did anything funny or add anything to the plot, he just whined about wanting to play "Ogres and Oubliettes", which felt a lot like Hasbro cramming in product placement for one of their board games.
Another solid episode. Discord was Discord. Big Mac was Big Mac. Spike was Spike. I like the dynamic between these 3. Overall: 6/10
Dear Princess Celestia, Last week I learned - communicate with your partner. Assumptions just make everything worse. Also, please expect the Lord of Chaos to cause chaos. Why do ponies think he won't? Yours Faithfully, Dragonbait
