It was a good episode! Not one of the best ones, but I enjoyed it!

wild mass guessMaud's super strength is entirely rock-focused. She has studied rocks so thoroughly that she instinctively knows every point of weakness in a rock's "body", and can prepare a perfect and devestating flight arc for any thrown rock within moments of picking one up. wild mass guess

It occurs to me that this episode is pretty thematically similar to "A Friend in Deed", but managed its ending better.

Also, I remember this thread speculated that Pinkie's perfect romantic partner would be super stoic like Big Mac or Gummy. The relationship between Pinkie and Maud seems to further support that theory.

..... I know it's just my dirty mind, but Maud hugging Pinkie at the end had some lesbian undertones.

I know I said I like Pinkie, but I also really like Maud. The contrast between those two is great. grin

True. Big Mac got "schmoopy-doo" with Cheerilee, and yet he's still shipped with Braeburn. And Caramel. tongue

@Meta: The way this episode handled it was basically how I thought "A Friend In Deed" should've ended.

Saw the new episode. Pinkie was really cute in this episode, and Maud Pie was both awesome and funny. I loved it, and it's a huge improvement over the last episode.grin

... This episode... It hit uncomfortably close to home.

It's good... but good fucking lord did it remind me of how terrible I used to be at interacting with people.

I was pretty much expecting Maud to be the way she was as soon as Pinkie mentioned her sister was coming, just based on Pinkie's flashback in "Cutie Mark Chronicles." I was not disappointed. Everything Maud did was awesome. Also we got to see everyone's pets together again, which was nice. They don't acknoledge those guys often enough.

Every line in this ep just felt TOO simple.(Kinda small and insignificant to every other episode so far too.)

It is weird for me when I see the Mane 6 playing things that could be... childish for humans.

Ponykind have other views about hobbies, I guess.

She is another great representation of Hidden Badass! When her sister is in trouble, her dormant talents rise to the occasion! I just wish it wasn't so jarringly surprising! Nothing about the stunts she could do what foreshadowed in any way.

This was a great episode. Maud Pie was awesome and there were also lots of great Pinkie gags.

  • Haven't seen her since yesterday? You know, that's not really a lot of time. Even the police wouldn't get worried until like 48 hours, I think,
  • I love how Pinkie just throws them into her house.
  • Pity Spike wasn't here. He loves that stuff
  • Hey, it's that squee sound effect they keep using
  • Crayon tales!
  • Squee count ++
  • Yeah, she won't pay attention to what you're wearing seeing as most of you aren't even wearing anything
  • Everyone else walking a lot slower than you? I definitely know that feeling, Pinkie
  • So that's Maud. I like her already
  • So is she a pony! Mai or what? Looks like she brought The Boulder too.
  • This is like the end of The Thief isn't it?
  • What, it was in your pocket? That's so cheating
  • What happened to the propeller? Is it not under a perpetual motion spell? Not sure how Tank being tired would actually affect it, unless it is powered by his stamina or something
  • One I forgot earlier - Rarity channels her inner Sonic
  • Now Pinkie is going all Dory
  • Don't worry Fluttershy, Pinkie defines 'friend' as 'person she's spent two seconds in the prescence of'
  • Now I'm beginning to think that Maud is deliberately trolling them. There's no way that that is how you peel an apple
  • Maud provides evidence of EP magic. Maybe this will finally resolve those stupid debates. Ha, who am I kidding? Debate is eternal
  • 200 pounds?!?! How many necklaces does she plan to make?
  • Pinkie: Tell me what's wrong? Fluttershy: She's nice.
  • Even you should be able to tell that that course is a really stupid idea, Pinkie
  • Also, squee count up to 3
  • This is going to be another Spike At Your Service situation, isn't it? How the heck do they keep getting stuck on little rocks. Heck, I couldn't even see the rock she got stuck on this time
  • Wow, Maud is fast and does have rock magic
  • Looks like the farm is still derelict in the present day.

Nothing worse than a cock that won't get up

I'd ask if you were trying to get into the Tumblr, but I'm pretty sure that was intentional and hence is disqualified.

The fic has to get approved by the prereaders first to make sure it meets formatting requirements.

What, Fimfic has prereaders too? I thought that was only an EQD thing.

She's invisible!

That was my first thought too, actually.

Maud is reminding me Droopy.

Never saw Droppy. She made me think of Mai from ATLA.

sounds almost exactly like Raven.

Anyone know who voiced her? It would be funny if it was Tara doing her Raven voice.

Maud confirmed for Mai-tier troll.

You mean there's more than one character named Mai that she resembles?

It tastes like apples

And apple byproducts.

lol RD's necklace

Oh yeah, that was great.

She also launched a large rock about twice as far as RD managed to,

I'd say that was a lot more than twice as far.

I wonder how long it'll be before people start making Boulder/The Boulder jokes.

Too late.

The first comment is... nitpicks? What? They must be joking.

Look closely at the quotes. grin

Wow, so Equestria Daily, many comment, such troll. WOW.

What did they do.

Nitpicking sentences that didn't actually appear in the story. Yes, totally joking.

Don't forget the part where I said I can't wait for the second chapter.

I totally missed that. Pinkie is hard for these ears to understand sometimes.

Don't worry, I missed it too.

He might have actually been able to bond with her over geology.

And eat 200 pounds of rock candy without ill effect.
