As much as I'd like to for Trivial Pursuit to not have happened, it is weird that Twilight just goes from going batshit insane over trivia to nothing phases her even though it rightfully should. They acknowledge it, too, which is like, it's not really "character growth" when you smack her with the idiot ball like that.


 
But at least we get some more progress on the villains. And it's still up in the air what the final battle will be. Will it be a simultaneous 3 way fight for power, will Grogar come out victorious only for the backstabbing to happen, will Grogar and the other villains destroy each other while the problem for the Mane 6 is something mundane?


 
It was a solid episode, nothing majorly great about it, but given the last two episodes, that's more than fine by me.


 
1. Between Dark and Dawn
 
2. The Last Laugh
 
3. Sparkle’s Seven
 
4. Student Counsel
 
5. The Beginning of the End
 
6. Frenemies
 
7. Sweet and Smoky
 
8. The Last Crusade
 
**9. The Summer Sun Setback*
*  
10. Common Ground
 
11. She’s All Yak
 
12. Going to Seed
 
13. Uprooted
 
14. A Trivial Pursuit
 
15. The Point of No Return
 
16. 2, 4, 6, Greaaat


 
Given how little we have left, I'm gonna assume this will be the last Fluttershy-centric episode.


 
And given what we saw laswith the previous episodes, I half-expect it to be about Fluttershy facing another fear of hers.
