They know what they did. The writers knew EXACTLY what they were doing when they had Rainbow making cupcakes with Pinkamena.

[windwalker]

Dude, they not only brought Pinkamena back, they had her *baking cupcakes with Rainbow Dash.* Bad writers! Bad! You know what you did.

[personofthetao]

How it should have gone:

Pinkie, we're happy that you love playing this. But you're not being considerate of where you practice. We can find you a secluded area.



How it went:

Pinkie, you're trash. Give up your dreams.

13:40 Rainbow and Pinkamena making cupcakes?

dear

[kokobean]

Actually, this wasn't a bad episode at all. It's surprisingly displayed depression very well.

Depression makes you say and do things that you normally would not, you distance yourself from the people you love, so leaving for yakyakistan without saying goodbye was something very plausible. When her friends reminded her of the things she was good at, it was plausible that Pinkie wouldn't feel any better, depression blinds you from all the positives.

Depression can sink you into a dark place that you cannot get out of, until you've resolved what was making you depressed in the first place. Then, and only then will the person see some hope of being themselves again. This is coming from a person who suffered from depression.

5:59 You missed Rarity saying "Applsolutely- I mean absolutely".

[Eva-mpse]

*_And a one! and a two! and a you know what to

[queenkaterose]

Rarity: “yes yes I can” best quote ever

[a.cnugget]

Damn...this episode has a deeper meaning..depression and stuff helping a suicidal friend whenever there feeling down...

At least thats what i think and feel.
This episode means alot to me.

[rimanova]

I was werdly enough happy to see Pinkamena once again! Hasbro doesn't like to show that side of Pinkie that much...

[chrism.]

That yak made it sound like the instrument is an antidepressant. I don’t like where this is going. Pinkie really could be depressed 😰

[bonbonpony]

02:31 It's the sound of Gabriel's trumpet announcing the apocalypse, I guess? :q
03:25 More like a BAD pipe :J
05:14 More like ALL OF THEM :P
07:54 I bet Twilight would appreciate some Human technology in this situation: ebook readers can actually store the entire library in just one "booklet" :)
14:16 PARTY.MOV anypony? :q
21:40 Rainbow Dish, your mane is on fire :J
23:23 Or at least unclog the pipes :q
24:23 Yeah, and now she's got that party canon times six, each of them producing wacky sounds ;q Just wait on when she puts confetti into those pipes ;J

[darkhelliadarkfire]

It makes more sense when you think of Pinkie's party cannon as a part of her job and the instrument as her favorite item to play with. Pinkie's party cannon is for her job so it doesn't quite work to use as a toy to play with whereas the Ufidophone(sp?) she can play around with and enjoy more than a party cannon which only has one real function.

8:10 I CANT STOP REWATCHING THAT SCENE 😂

I thought this episode was pretty good. I know that Pinkie wanted to get better at playing the yovidaphone but, showing up at the places where her friends were while playing it was lousy timing. I too was not expecting Pinkie to go Pinkamena again, that caught me off guard. This change in Pinkie was a little different though. Not only her hair deflated but, her color palette went gray as if she was Discorded/Mean Pinkie; at least she didn't have her screws loose this time though. She might have played the yovidaphone differently but, the way it was played by one of the yak's was very good, beautiful even. All in all, I liked this episode; both funny and surprising.

[Narrator]

3:22 "That's like something out of Dr. Seuss! What is that thing?"
A Seuss-aphone?

[laszlozsurka]

It's a pretty good episode, nice to see that Pinkie is trying her best to fit in the Yak customs by learning how to play on a sax. Even though her playing was a pain to the ear I still have to acknowledge the fact that practice makes someone a master. What I didn't accept and disliked is that Pinkie were pretty much purposely trying to mess around with the mane 6 like staying all night at Fluttershy's cottage and not even letting her getting a shut eye is just wrong. If I were Fluttershy I would've just sent the bear to scare Pinkie away. That was a low blow from Pinkie. I also don't really like the fact that how her friends weren't much supportive towards her practicing. They pretty much just told her that she plays god awful and she should just stop. That's not the way how you should support your friend. I get it Pinkie pretty much annoyed them a lot but still, they could've told her to go somewhere private where she doesn't bother anyone and practice there. And for some extra boost in confidence they should've also said that they will be giving some motivation and cheering too. That's how true friends would've done it, not by telling her that you suck. I also loved the fact that this episode brought back Pinkamena. I really missed seeing her, so yeah kudos for the episode for that. Overall the episode was really good, I enjoyed it. It wasn't a very special episode but it had it's fun moments.

11:57 Pinkamena? Could be worse
12:15 She radiates death? ok...
13:38 were all gonna die.

[tigerishbook]

Honestly, this episode wasn’t that great, but your reaction to it made the episode actually enjoyable.

[guardian]

Jesus Chris!!! Pinkie became one of the Apocalypse Ponies when she killed those flowers by walking past them!!!
