I would have bought Babs as a \\\"sympathetic\\\" bully more if she hadn\\\'t continued tormenting the CMC even when Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon weren\\\'t there. Also, if you want to play the \\\"bullies are kids with problems too\\\" angle, it helps if the series antagonists aren\\\'t still being played as arbitrary cardboard cutout villains right next to her. And the fact that Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon got all buddy-buddy with a \\\"blank flank\\\", in spite of the fact that their whole motif is mocking blank-flanks at every opportunity was just the cherry on top. Just from THOSE three points, the portrayal of bullies and bullying in this episode was a bad caricature.
