New episode:

Show
Liked it in general. I rate this far better than the season opener, at least narratively. The plot is cohesive, and wrapped in a neat package. A number of extremely convenient contrivances, certainly, (Pinkie's prescient knowledge about the pool and Spike finding the book) but almost forgiveable in the sense that the show seems to be poking fun at itself about those.

Things that stood out:
Orange-d animals are apparently still sentient.
The cloned Pinkie(s) clearly only inherited half of her intellect and apparently none of her memories.
Pinkie continues to sneer at the laws of physics.
This is the first time the Everfree has been revisited for quite some time now.
I find amusing/ironic that the real Pinkie was the one who acted most un-Pinkie-like during the mass Pinkie scene.
